...Castro is showcasing a theory long popular both among the far left and far right: that the shadowy Bilderberg Group has become a kind of global government...
The 84-year-old former Cuban president published an article Wednesday that used three of the only eight pages in the Communist Party newspaper Granma to quote — largely verbatim — from a 2006 book by Lithuanian-born writer Daniel Estulin.
..."The Secrets of the Bilderberg Club," argues that the international group largely runs the world. It has held a secretive annual forum of prominent politicians, thinkers and businessmen since it was founded in 1954 at the Bilderberg Hotel in Holland.
Castro offered no comment on the excerpts other than to describe Estulin as honest and well-informed and to call his book a "fantastic story."
Estulin's book, as quoted by Castro, described "sinister cliques and the Bilderberg lobbyists" manipulating the public "to install a world government that knows no borders and is not accountable to anyone but its own self."
The Bilderberg group's website says its members have "nearly three days of informal and off-the-record discussion about topics of current concern" once a year, but the group does nothing else.
...The excerpt published by Castro suggested that the esoteric Frankfurt School of socialist academics worked with members of the Rockefeller family in the 1950s to pave the way for rock music to "control the masses" by diverting attention from civil rights and social injustice.
"The man charged with ensuring that the Americans liked the Beatles was Walter Lippmann himself," the excerpt asserted, referring to a political philosopher and by-then-staid newspaper columnist who died in 1974.
"In the United States and Europe, great open-air rock concerts were used to halt the growing discontent of the population," the excerpt said...

Secrets of the Beatles PING
I hear he stays up late at night unable to sleep, catching snippets of Coast To Coast’s tales of chupacabras and weather control machines.
If someone wants to photoshop Fidel at a “build a bear” workshop, and do a spoof story, it would be a hilarious parody.
I guess Fidel did not want to cover the parts of the book that cover his own dealings with the Bilderburgers....the Bilderburgers were all buddy buddy with the Commies...all Globalists are
Rock and roll also helped usher in integration (of audiences and acceptance of black music).
That’s what’s so odd about this. You don’t think of Communists being the ones to expose the Communist conspiracy.
It does make one rethink basic ideas. The Frankfurt school were Marxists. It seems that Fidel thinks that what the Marxists did was bad.
I’d heard about Adorno and the Beatles before, and it seemed very far fetched to me.
For a real bizzare story google Mel’s Hole.
Fidel is still breathing? Of is this like Soviet Russia?
Castro probably got a kick reading nice things about himself in that Bilderburger group....bet he had his assistants look up Estonia on a map.
Been doing a little research on this. The article says the name of the book is “The Secrets of the Bilderberg Club”.
The real name of the book is “The True Story of the Bilderberg Group”

Man Fidel, you need more tinfoil.
I don’t think that the Beatles stuff was actually in the original “true story” book. The Beatles / Frankfurt School stuff sounds similar to this.

INTRODUCTION TO THE SOCIOLOGY OF MUSIC, Adorno, Theo. Adorno was kicked out of Germany by Hitler because of his Cult of Dionysus music experiments. He was moved to England by the Oppenheimers where the British royal family gave him facilities at Gordonstoun School and their support. It was here that Adorno perfected “Beatlemusic Rock,” “Punk Rock” “Heavy Metal Rock” and all of the decadent clamor that passes for music today. It is worthy of note that the name “The Beatles” was chosen to show a connection between modern rock, the Isis cult and the Scarab Beatle, a religious symbol of ancient Egypt.

Actually, there is a book that is available on Amazon called
“Los Secretos Del Club Bilderberg”. There isn’t an English version available on Amazon.

the text of that Estulin book, in Spanish.
“...informal and off-the-record discussion about topics of current concern” once a year, but the group does nothing else.”
Sure they meet just for to party and a couple of days fun in the sun. Yea riiiigggghhhttt.
Bilderberg group are pure imperialists. They have useful idiots like Al Gore to sell their massage. The last thing they want is a population of free thinking people with individual rights to get in the way of how they think the free markets should work.
