Talk:David Rockefeller

NWO, Socialism, etc.

Is the following serious?

David Rockefeller is probably the most ardent supporter of the New World Order. He was Vice Director of the Council on Foreign Relations (1949-1985), Vice President (1950-1970), and Chariman from (1970-1985), founder and Honorary Chairman of the Trilateral Commission as well as attending some of the secrative Bilderberg Group meetings.

I would suspect not (judging by our article at New World Order and New World Order (conspiracy), and so I have removed it. Meelar (talk) 00:52, Oct 15, 2004 (UTC)

Obviously someone does not know the meaning of World Federalism...

I actually came here specifically to see if the David Rockefeller article mentioned his active support of Mao in the 70s, and other socialist and NWO groups and people. --Mrcolj 18:29, 20 October 2006 (UTC) (Colin Jensen, not a loon, but a mellow San Franciscan apologist, nevertheless I don't know that a biography on David Rockefeller that doesn't mention extreme left-wing progressivist socialism is NPOV any more than a similar article on George Soros would be. In 2006, one hardly hears the name Rockefeller outside of references to fears of billionaire boys' club style conspiracies posited by everyone throughout the 1950s.)

Perhaps the charge of being part of an organisation called: 'New World Order' is untrue, but the rest of the groups mentioned he is a part of, and is well documented. He also agrees to the charge of wanting to "..build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will." Which comes from his book Memoirs and is quoted on this page.

Names of Rockefeller children incorrect

The names of some of David Rockefeller's children are incorrect: "Margaret Rockefeller" now refers to herself as "Peggy Dulany," "Neva Rockefeller Goodwin" refers to herself as "Neva Goodwin" and "Eileen Rockefeller" refers to herself as "Eileen Growald." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.124.151.17 (talk) 14:08, November 19, 2005 (UTC)

Correct birth date

David Rockefeller was born on June 12, 1915. not June 15, 1915. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.198.171.137 (talk) 04:36, May 28, 2006 (UTC)

Controversy

Are you telling me that David Rockefeller's Wikipedia entry doesn't have a controversy section? WFT? 204.112.156.246 21:01, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

The anon comment above is correct and I see that it has not been rectified. This article reads as if it were written by the Rockefeller organization, and in that regard I note heavy editing by SPAs. I have asked for comment and would like to see more eyes trained on this article.--Mantanmoreland 21:43, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

I'm not so worried about SPA. We are all equal here, whether we mostly read or we mostly write. Are the SPA causing a problem? The top part of the article looks fine. The bottom part looks very much like a list. Some article have sub-articles and a summary and a link. Consider this. I see no debate about whether the bottom part of the article is good or bad.Plumbing 03:14, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Rockefeller definitely seems to be a controversial figure. The lack of inclusion of a controversy section does seem to reflect poorly on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.28.219.173 (talk) 06:30, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Considering that Rockefeller has ADMITTED to being part of "a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States" in a quote on this very page, and in another quote (not on Wikipedia) he talks of the "supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers" who should be controlling the world.. I have no IDEA why there's no "controversy" section, to say the least..

A proven (former) friend of another member of the Rockefeller family said he was told before 9/11 that "an event would occur" which would lead to "going into Iraq, Iran, Brazil", and he was laughing at the idea of soldiers "looking in caves for something that doesn't exist". Again, I am dumbfounded by a lack of a "controversy" section.. 99.246.109.131 (talk) 03:01, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Bilderberg Group

The "Bilderberg Group" has been described as "a secret world government".

"We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a one world Godless government. The super-national sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries." (David Rockefeller, at a June 1991 Bilderberger meeting in Baden-Baden, Germany)

does anyone have any reliable source at all for the quote above? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.245.195.34 (talk) 16:33, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Another statement, in his 2002 autobiography, Memoirs, also expounds on his political means and strategies in the efforts to achieve a one-world, "New World Order" government:

For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure – one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it. (Page 405 of the 2002 hardcover edition)

I came across this in Michael Tsarion's 2006 lecture to the Granada Forum: Template:Google video. __meco 17:03, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

And I now realize that this quote was part of the article long before I "discovered" it. __meco 09:20, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

What about the allegations that it was David Rockefeller who ordered the 9/11 attacks? Timharwoodx 18:09, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

What about it? Hard to conceive how something like that could fit into this article under WP:BLP.--Mantanmoreland 20:20, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

I agree, I just thought I'd add it to the talk page. Its a developing story. Timharwoodx 19:32, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

I doubt that Mr. david rockefellerwas a member of al Qaeda, but if a WP:RS source says so, let's include it. Fifteenth hijacker?--Mantanmoreland 19:30, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Means, opportunity, motive, it certainly points to David Rockefeller as the likely candidate to have ordered and funded the 9/11 attacks. Rockefeller wealth is founded in oil, and 9/11 offered the chance not only to spike up the price of oil, but to secure control of major oilfields in Iraq, and around the Caspian Sea Oil basin. Huge profits potentially were on offer for years to come. Even Jay Rockefeller and the Rothschilds clan are reported on the internet as thinking David is too darn evil. Look it up in Google. A split in the Illumninati ranks. They formed a breakaway global warming faction, reportedly. As I said to someone recently, when you get to the point that your evil plans for world domination and control are being discussed openly in the pub, then probably you went wrong somewhere..... David went too far on 9/11, and the whole Illuminati will now pay the price. Timharwoodx 20:20, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Well, I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles.--Mantanmoreland 03:52, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

http://educate-yourself.org/ga/RFcontents.shtml The irony is even back in the 1970s members of congress were openly warning that the Rockefellers had a secret plan for one world government, and the destruction of America, to be implemented through the CFR and other structures. I guess until 9/11, we never took it seriously. Too bad for David his 'secret' plans leaked out on the internet, and the Chinese confirmed them through their own internal sources. What good is a secret government, when it is no longer a secret? The Rothschilds must be furious having worked so long, so hard, on this one world government project, to have it blown out the water, by this ridiculous 9/11 plan David allegedly came up with, implemented by Rumsfeld and Cheney. Presumably David thought with the 9/11 oil money from Iraq, he could finally surpass the Rothschilds wealth (12 trillion v. 100 trillion c. 1998), and that may have been *HIS* motive. I guess Bush would say as President he was only following CFR orders, and that as mere President, he was not high enough up in the government, to ever be a real decision maker. Cheney was the main CFR agent of influence on the Bush administration, and there is video of him on youtube admitting his long CFR association.

There is no point in posting these kinds of links. Only reliable sources can be used in this article. --Mantanmoreland 15:16, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

You may be right in that these links (or at least some of them) cannot be included in the article, however, they can provide useful pointers to pertinent issues, perspectives, relations and/or incidents that merit inclusion. Once having discovered such claims or information it is possible to do further research in order to obtain reliable sourcing for that which is asserted in, basically, non-mainstream sources.

For instance, it was watching the lecture by Michael Tsarion, Template:Google video which mentions David Rockefeller's abhorrent (if it can indeed be pinned to him) statement to the Bilderberger meeting in 1991 (which an anonymous editor pointed out above) that incited me to visit this article today and do the work that I have. __meco 16:38, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

If a link is obviously not appropriate for the article, there is no point in putting it in the talk page. Remember that this is not a forum for discussion of David Rockefeller. There is a caveat to that effect at the top of this page.--Mantanmoreland 16:55, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Then you do not appear to share my position that a talk page is like a newsroom where ideas, sources and information of unassessed quality may be shared with other editors, which then in turn may form the basis for meritable inclusions into the article text itself. I think the cautioning banner at the top of the page (which I added today, mind you) is more directed towards people simply voicing their opinions on a subject and not on sharing information which may be used in investigating different angles to the subject. __meco 17:12, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

check the date around line 115 as the user that changed the date from 1978 to 1982 has been doing alot of vandalism from that ip —Preceding unsigned comment added by Biorgani (talk • contribs) 15:51, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
