Some of the most powerful men in the world are gathered in this clearing, members of one of our country's most exclusive clubs, invitation-only unless, of course you invite yourself.They gather here to see God between the branches of these magnificent trees. They eat together. They kiss next to each other and they carve up the world like a Sunday roast. This is where the real power is.Most of the viewers thought it was just a fictional plot point in the show, completely unaware that the scene was inspired by actual events and an actual place called the Bohemian Grove.Even for those who have heard of the Bohemian Grove, most of their knowledge is limited to a few basic facts. But for those who wish to scratch beyond the surface of this subject, there is certainly a lot to be learned.It's a 2,700 acre, privately-owned redwood forest in Northern California, located about an hour north of San Francisco in a small town named Monte Rio and serves as a vacation spot for the Establishment every summer, in the middle of July, where the world's most powerful men gather for a men's retreat inside the Grove, which is kicked off with what's called the "Cremation of Care" ritual, a human sacrifice-depicting ceremony, where a life-size effigy of a person is burned on the altar at the base of a 40-foot tall demon-looking statue.Seriously, it's sort of the Camp David of California with some Satanism mixed-in and was founded back in 1872. The term "Bohemian" refers to people who live non-traditional lifestyles and people who are adventurers and vagabonds...The Bohemian Grove's mascot, an owl is the Owl of Minerva, the same symbol that Illuminati founder, Adam Weishaupt used as his emblem, which I'm sure it's just a coincidence.The owl symbolizes wisdom because it can see in the dark, which is analogous to being enlightened and out of curiosity, in the past occasionally a reporter would try to sneak in the now-highly-guarded compound and some have been successful, yet little has been reported in major publications.Membership lists program guides have sometimes been stolen and published by employees and in the 1980s, a group called the Bohemian Grove Action Network dedicated themselves to doing just that. The patron saint of the Bohemian Grove is Saint John of Nepomuk and a large statue of him stands inside the ground, with him holding his index finger over his mouth signifying secrecy and reminding members to keep their mouth shut.A patron saint is someone who embodies a group's philosophies or goals and John of Nepomuk received the confessionals of the Queen of Bohemia in the 1300s and, when pressured by the king to reveal her confessions after he suspected her of cheating on him, Saint John refused and was killed by the king.So basically, he symbolizes Robert de Niro's gangster gospel in 'Goodfellas', that you never rat on your friends and you always keep your mouth shut, which is why there's a life-size statue of John of Nepomuk standing prominently in the Bohemian Grove.An adviser to Presidents Ford, Nixon, Reagan and Clinton, named David Gergen, who also worked as a CNN contributor was confronted on camera by Alex Jones in the streets of New York during the 2004 Republican National Convention there, when Alex stuck a microphone in his face and asked if he had ever seen the Cremation of Care ritual. And well, he wasn't very happy about it...(Plays Alex Jones clip)Well, isn't he a little sensitive?The club is divided into over 100 different camps inside the grounds, each one having anywhere from a dozen to around 100 different members. Each individual camp has its own sleeping quarters, kitchen, bar. Each one has a captain that's responsible for managing that territory.Each camp has a different name and tends to contain members who work in the same field. For example, the Hillbilly's Camp is comprised mainly of men who work in business and bankers and politicians who are from Texas. The Mandalay Camp includes mainly political figures, such as former presidents and defense contractors.Owl's Nest is another elite camp of former presidents and high-ranking military personnel and defense contractors and sociologist, Pete...
