Maybe this is why the G-8 summit was moved to Camp David (May 18-19)?

What is otherwise scarier, is that George Soros was a huge backer of now President Obama.

You know, it's not like this is the first major world conference of very controversial organizations in the modern age?? I don't get this. Why Chicago?? They KNOW..KNOW..this is going to bring major problems and far moer headaches than any benefit for whatever city hosts it?!
I'll give the Bilderbergers this much...At least they and the other usual suspects tend to choose their locations out and apart from MAJOR Metro areas where life for millions will be turned upside down so they can have a meeting. Why does NATO have to just stomp into town and damned the disruption to an entire city..and by this story,..an entire region??
If they're trying for unrest and to create a situation which then demands a crackdown, I'd give an A+ for effort. They aren't missing much for chances to see it develop.
Last summer the Coalition Against NATO/G8 War & Poverty Agenda (CANG8) was founded and announced that it was organizing protests at the join NATO/G8 Summit in Chicago in May 2012. Many local anti-war groups joined the coalition at its founding and agreed to organize Minnesotans to participate in this important national demonstration.
Occupy is taking credit for the White House's recent decision to move a May meeting G-8 leaders from Chicago, where Occupy and other groups had threatened protests, to safer and more remote Camp David. "We scored a victory, forcing them to retreat to the back woods of Maryland," Andy Thayer, Occupier and spokesperson for the Coalition Against NATO/G-8, tells ABC News.
Protests still will be mounted, he says, against NATO, which has chosen not to flee Chicago and will meet there as planned. "There'll be a mass march on the NATO summit," says Thayer, "not only a march, but any number of other activities. It's unclear whether it will be on the 19th or 20th. We will decide in the next few days."

Yep. No doubt about it. However, you do have my curiosity up,
yes...just why did they choose Chicago?
