The RIIA and The Chatham House

The Royal Institute of International affairs (RIIA), now the Chatham House, is, “Europe’s leading foreign policy think tank.” Founded in 1928, it describes itself as, ”an independent membership-based organization that brings together people from government, politics, business, NGOs, the academic world and the media…works to stimulate debate and research on political, business, security and other key issues in the international arena.” It is just another corner stone of the Illuminati.Chatham House is an origin of the Catham House Rule, which states that members attending a seminar may discuss the results of the seminar in the outside world, but may not discuss who attended or identify what a specific individual said. The Chatham House Rule evolved to facilitate frank and honest discussion on controversial or unpopular issues by speakers who may not have otherwise had the appropriate forum to speak openly.
The RIIA was established a year before the CFR, and they are considered sister organizations. They work in similar ways to both to control the media without causing problems. But unlike the CFR, The Chatham House works on a continental, sometimes global basis. It has members from all over Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. It also bears resemblance to The Bilderburg Group. Every member is high ranking and has some importance in the world. The groups meets without media coverage and disccusses world events. Recently, the Iraq Prime Minister of Oil has meet with the Chatham House, with no media present of course, and has discussed the Middle East’s energy plan among other things that would not be disclosed.
I have found that many of these groups hold similar characteristics but are on different levels of importance. So far, the ones we have talked about arrange in this order:
The Bilderburg Group,
The Chatham House
Club of Rome
The CFR
(This is on a global perspective, the importance varies from country-to-country.)
