The Bohemian Club's Annual Summer Encampment came to a close here Sunday, ending a two-week retreat for the rich and powerful that President Herbert Hoover once called "the greatest men's party on Earth." The club's famed annual gathering has been held for more than 100 years at the 2,700-acre Bohemian Grove in Monte Rio, about 70 miles north of San Francisco in Sonoma County. This year's event drew in notables such as former President George Bush, Texas Gov. George W. Bush, Henry Kissinger, retired Gen. Colin Powell, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Dow Chemical Chairman Frank Popoff, as well as actor Danny Glover.
The men gather to celebrate what they call "the spirit of Bohemia," said Peter Phillips, a Sonoma State University sociology professor who wrote his doctoral dissertation on the Bohemian Club.
"This is a place men can go and hang out with people who are similar to them," he said.
The annual gathering near the Russian River, which was first held in 1879, starts with the "Cremation of Care" ritual, in which the club's mascot is burned in effigy, symbolizing a freedom from care. Members also perform several plays, and gourmet food and expensive wine are plentiful.

This is why i prefer Jones to Icke.
Icke makes interesting claims too, sadly he says he sits on all this "evidence" but really fails to prove his point. Im not saying all of Icke work is misleading or incorrect, he just fails to back it all up.
Icke stated in "Children of the Matrix" that for years he has been saying about the bohemian grove and secret meet up, but really, the only time he mention it was after Jones inflitrated the gathering. All Icke stated was "secret meetings" not "bohemian grove".
Jones doesnt say something, unless he can back it up or prove it

He's probably still alive because he has so many fans/followers, and has said that he will NEVER commit suicide.
Thus if he is ever found dead he will be even more dangerous to the NWO, because those that were on the fence about him will be convinced.
They can't kill him, write a fake sucide note(or force him to write one) like they did to Gary Webb recently.

Kind of like Bill Cooper, he was "violent" and "resisted arest" and was killed by the police, who were serving a "warrant."

What's my point? Just this: Alex Jones had best watch his back. And if our favorite conspiracy theorist is picked for "erasure", there won't be a lot we can do about it.
