Meet the 18 people who control the world

Ok, now that we have that cleared up, lets move to the next part.

You've identified people who are have influence with or are in control of major corporate entities beyond AT&T. Beyond that, you are postulating that they, through their association with one another, are in "control of the world".

How do you propose to illustrate for us how they do so, and what do you have to show us to prove it? You may think that they could exert a lot of pressure or influence, but you have to have something tangible to take this from wild speculation to plausible theory.

I could say that the Board of Directors for WalMart, are in charge of the world. In fact, lets look at them:

Select Wal Mart Board Members

Aida Alvarez

They have backgrounds in publishing, manufacturing, US and international banking, financial investments, media, entertainment, retail, IT, and the US government. Imagine the influence that these folks could have.

Give us something besides their backgrounds. Show us the conspiracy.

That is a good and fair reply by RH, deserving a reply. I would also like to know why Rothschilds name isn't on your list. You could look at the influence they have, they have extraordinary power, and I am sure that if you were to provide a pecking order of most powerful individuals in the way you are meaning they influence global decisions, that the House of Rothschilds would be ahead of anyone on the list you gave.

My interest in AT&T began 10 years ago when I worked for them at a couple of their "call centers". After a couple things happened that peaked my curiousity, I started looking into them. The list I put up is of the board members of AT&T. I couldnt help but see that between the 18 of them, they have all the markets covered. Then after looking into all the companies they are connected to, i just flat out got the willies.

Would you please elaborate on "the couple of things that happened", that led you on your search for the the truth?

thanks

ooops... double post..
