I am relatively confident the founding dynasties of the big bank players are still involved though some may have been weeded out in consolidation over time. I too have considered tracing shareholders of the companies you mentioned (and spent some idle time doing exactly that) but unraveling those balls of string is a monumental task. I also came to the conclusion that even if it was possible to get to an "end station" so to speak, it is likely that entity would be a fiduciary administering on behalf of the actual decision maker(s) bound to secrecy in a private contract held only in physical form. Maybe multiple intermediary fiduciaries, that is how I would do it at least.

I also have no idea about what is up and running in the Orient. I do listen at times to Benjamin Fulford, who seems to have some inkling, but discerning the viability or legitimacy of his information is beyond my purview. To hear him tell it there is an epic battle between East and West mafias battling for control of the planet and it does make for an interesting narrative.
