Many now have "elections" for PMs and parliaments or presidents but the bloodlines still hold the power. They intermarried for a few centuries (after inbreeding idiots, although I wonder about Prince Charles) and they're much more connected now globally and geographically. They've also had to dip further down in the gene pool, i.e. Charles and Diane were cousins although very distant cousins.<BR/><BR/>While the royals of Japan and Saudi have not married into the Anglo bloodlines the ol' royal white boys have settled for economic treaties. I doubt we'll see an heir to the Emperor of Japan or the heir to the House of Saud marry a European royal.<BR/><BR/>The Rothschild family is considered Jewish royalty with a member occasionally known as the "King of the Jews" - but I don't believe they're directly descended from King David. <BR/><BR/>To the "ruling class" bloodline is very important - as an amateur genealogist researching my own family I can understand it. We are our family tree, as far back as we can go. Which is why it pisses me off unbearably to see the social attitude of white liberals who have for 3 decades aided and abetted Black America's illegitimate birth rate (70%). Millions of young Black women with 5-6 children by as many absent fathers - going on the 3rd generation of this - no roots, shallow roots. "They" call it social programs, safety nets, concern, caring, etc. - but white America has essentially lynched the Black family unit. "They" are the same folks who shriek the loudest about America tromping around the globe "killing brown people" as they demand more funding for rope at home, out of the goodness of their heart of course. But, that's another rant.Kate-Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02097300904370192818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10465909.post-51681649572481489582008-01-12T21:56:00.000-06:002008-01-12T21:56:00.000-06:00Kate,It very well could be and probably is Annabel...Kate,<BR/>It very well could be and probably is Annabelle I read about in that article so long ago. One link reports they were married in 1995.<BR/><BR/>Another marriage from a ruling class family, if the Bronfman's are part of the ruling class, was the marriage between Edgar Bronfman Jr and Sherry Brewer.

A few ye...Interesting talk about the ruling class. <BR/><BR/>A few years ago I read in a fashion magazine that a fashion model had married into one of the ruling class families. Was it the Rothchild's or the Rockefellers's? At the moment the family she married into is not coming to me. Also, I do not remember her name. However, I seem to recall that the marriage was forced into dissolution and I believe the terms of the divorce settlement called for her not linking herself to the family in any way. Though the writer of the article in the fashion magazine did link her to the family, otherwise how would I know about it?<BR/><BR/>Darn, I wish I could remember more of the details. Right now just fragments of info about the article are coming to mind. Now that there is so much talk about the ruling class, it would be good reading.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10465909.post-47923749792351537352008-01-11T19:34:00.000-06:002008-01-11T19:34:00.000-06:00Class war, I suppose that's a good term for it, a...<I>Class war, </I> I suppose that's a good term for it, although I rarely think of it in such terms.<BR/><BR/>Maybe b/c there are so many "classes" - extreme poor, lower, working, middle, upper, affluent, wealthy, etc. - all controlled by the <I>ruling</I> class who hold the power and I don't believe many members of these classes are fighting the classes above them or the ruling class, rather they strive to mimic or idolize.<BR/><BR/>For example - Bill Gates or Nadhmi Auchi are billionaires, putting them in the wealthiest "class" but they have no power per se, other than to set up foundations/institutions which maintains the status quo while giving the appearance of altruism and social conscience. <BR/><BR/>Such monied men and women have power over most of the masses simply b/c they have the money to buy what they will - they can make life miserable for competitors and others - but among the ruling class they have no power - they too mimic and idolize the "ruling class" - buying their tickets to the royal soiree.<BR/><BR/>Such men sup with the devil with a short spoon. The true "ruling class" hide behind the men/women on Forbes rich list. Among the ruling class, folks such as the Bush family are hired help. But it's a damn comfortable living.Kate-Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02097300904370192818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10465909.post-11002567346300933992008-01-11T16:44:00.000-06:002008-01-11T16:44:00.000-06:00I read a saying somewhere recently (I cannot remem...I read a saying somewhere recently (I cannot remember where or who) that this post reminds me of:<BR/><BR/>"There is only one war, and it is a class war."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
