The famed—and much derided—Bilderberg Group is meeting this week in Britian to discuss whatever it is the world's super elite discuss at their secretive annual gatherings.

 

Held this year at the five star Grove Hotel near Watford, England, the 61st Bilderberg Group meeting will host some of the world's most powerful individuals—including heads of banks, fossil fuel company CEOs, former heads of state, powerful government ministers and officials, academics, and media moguls.

Among certain notable attendees, IMF Chief Christine Lagarde is attending this year's meeting as well as US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, (Ret.) US Army General David Petraeus, former US Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, former Nixon adviser and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and Bush-era neoconservative titan Richard Perle.
