Are UK PM Theresa May and German Chancellor Angela Merkel part of the Illuminati?

Actors and celebrities often use same hand signal

Newsroom July 25 01:44

New British PM Theresa May was caught up in a bizarre conspiracy theory on the internet (it doesn’t take much really), as she was seen using a signal resembling the diamond shaped ‘Illuminati’ sign with her hands during her speech at the the UK Parliament. As British ‘DailyMail’ writes: The hand signal is listed on the illuminati hand signs conspiracy theory website illuminatiRex and described as a ‘Merkel-Raute’. The ‘Merkel-Raute’ is a reverse variation of the first illuminati ‘Roc Sign’ – roughly in the shape of a diamond or pyramid – used by celebrities such as actors, Denzel Washington, Ben Stiller and Tom Cruise. Users of the ‘Merkel-Raute’, as it has become known due to the German’s frequent use, have also included other European historical figures including Pope John Paul II and Adolf Hitler.  ‘The pyramid is an important Illuminati symbol showing their few ruling the many on the bottom type power structure,’ the illuminatiRex website states. Mr Juncker was captured using the ‘Merkel-Raute’ signal this week when he met Belgium royalty on Friday.
But he had also used it on July 7 in Strasbourg, France.
German politician Memet Kilic had noticed the similarities between Mrs May and Mrs Merkel, describing the new PM as a ‘competitor’ in hand gestures against the German.
