Introduction
The Illuminati is either called a conspiracy theory or a conspiracy fact, depending on who you talk to. Those familiar with the Illuminati secret society may tell you that it is a criminal and diabolical network of some of the world s most wealthy, educated, and elite bankers, businessmen, and politicians, who work behind the scenes to gain and maintain high levels of power, enormous wealth, and wield control over the world. The list of claims that come along with this monstrous conspiracy are vast, and range from the Illuminati being an elite good-old-boy network looking out for their own interests (often at the expense of others and in unscrupulous ways), to claims that they are actually alien beings from another galaxy who masquerade as humans, drink people s blood to survive, and are working to prepare planet earth for the arrival of the Antichrist who will rule the New World Order as a god, offering those who worship him eternal life through transhumanist technology merging man with machine.
In this book I will help you get to the core of the conspiracy by providing you with some of the original evidence proving the existence and activities of this infamous group, dating back to the late 1700s in the state of Bavaria, Germany, and as more and more evidence is piled up, we will slowly move into the present day, proving beyond a reasonable doubt that the Illuminati is still fully operational, and many of the conspiracy theories are actually true.
This analysis is a supplement for my previous book, The Illuminati: Facts & Fiction and will continue to investigate and examine the many allegations and conspiracy theories associated with the Illuminati. Since the subject matter is so vast, this second volume was required to continue my analysis of the wide-ranging claims and evidence connected to the Illuminati conspiracy. I am dedicated to separating the facts from the fiction, since buried within the mountain of conspiracy theories circulated on this subject, there is a considerable amount of irrefutable evidence that there is indeed a powerful Illuminati secret society that is operating today in America and around the world.
There is also a large amount of wild speculation, half-truths, and out-right lies about what the Illuminati is doing, who is involved with them, and what evidence is available. Some people dismiss the idea that there is a conspiracy at all, and do not even believe such a thing exists, because when an educated and rational person comes across some of the more outrageous (and clearly false) allegations stemming from the Illuminati conspiracy, they just shake their head in disbelief and get the impression that all the allegations and conspiracy theories must be false as well; thinking such claims must have come from equally mentally deranged people who purport some of the more far-fetched and fabricated information as evidence and proof.
In this book I will present to you a rational approach to the idea of an Illuminati conspiracy and I will discuss the historical evidence of the original, admittedly real, Bavarian Illuminati and the roots of this secret society that has spawned countless tales of its power and reach. I will also cover many of the affiliated secret societies that were not examined in my previous book and will continue to investigate various people who claim to be actual former members. We will also look at some political elite insiders and see what they have to say about the Illuminati and the idea that a secret society of powerful men is posing a danger to the world and to our freedoms. Skeptics of an Illuminati conspiracy will be very surprised to learn the names of some prominent people throughout history who have made startling statements clearly revealing their conviction that the Illuminati is real and poses a danger to us all.
I don t like to use the word conspiracy because it has a negative connotation that this material is just a conspiracy theory, when in fact, I do very little theorizing at all. The terms conspiracy theory and conspiracy theorist have become a pejorative, which means they have a negative connotation and are used to insult people and shut down the discussion, similar to someone screaming racist at someone in attempts to bypass critical thinking and cause a knee jerk reaction to paint them as such, when in reality they simply have an opposing political ideology on a particular issue. Much to some people s surprise, many conspiracies are actually real, and the dictionary definition of a conspiracy is simply, an agreement by two or more persons to commit a crime, fraud, or other wrongful act. People are actually charged with conspiracy in criminal courts every day for simply conspiring or planning to commit a crime.
Conspiracies happen on a small scale such as when two people conspire to rob a bank, and on a large scale when the leadership of a powerful country fabricates a reason to go to war. Conspiracies are a fact of life. When researchers such as myself point out real, solid, irrefutable evidence that reveals a conspiracy, we are often attacked as crazy tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorists, because the term causes people to immediately dismiss the claims as a paranoid delusion imagined by someone on the Internet who lives in their mother s basement. The reality is that actual conspiracy theorists can be found in high positions of power and conspiracy theories are put forth by well-educated people. Let s not forget that Hillary Clinton publicly claimed that a vast right wing conspiracy was fabricating allegations that President Bill Clinton had sexual relations with intern Monica Lewinski. Hillary Clinton was being a conspiracy theorist, when in reality her husband Bill was having sexual relations with the intern, and there was no conspiracy trying to bring him down it was only people reporting on the facts.
The Bush administration put forth a conspiracy theory that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and were planning to use them on America and our allies, strong-arming the public into invading the country based on this conspiracy theory which was later proven to be 100% false. Not only was it false, but to be more accurate, it was actually a lie concocted to justify the invasion and war. As everyone now knows, there were no weapons of mass destruction at all, and Americans had been duped into going to war based on a conspiracy theory constructed by the US government.
Until the twenty-first century, most Americans had never heard of the Illuminati. Dan Brown s novel Angels & Demons introduced millions of people to the group in 2003 (although his version was far from the truth and more like a purposeful disinformation campaign). And with the rise of the information age and social media, YouTube videos a click away, and countless websites popping up dedicated to the subject, more and more people became interested in this mysterious subject.
The 2004 presidential election in America brought John Kerry and George W. Bush together to face off for the presidency, both of whom are members of the Skull & Bones secret society headquartered at Yale University, which added fuel to this growing fire. I say that they are members, not were members, because Skull & Bones is not just a fraternity like they would have you believe, but is instead a post-graduate organization that gives its members access to one of the most powerful social networks in the world. This is how two Skull & Bones members were able to secure the nominations for both the Republican and Democrat party in the same election, so no matter which one of them won (George W. Bush or John Kerry), it would be a victory for Skull & Bones.
It was around this same time that 9/11 conspiracy theories were growing, and the cover story for the War in Iraq continued to fall apart. The official story of the September 11 th attacks and the expanding war on terror just wasn t adding up. For the first several years after the World Trade Center was destroyed, so-called 9/11 conspiracy theories were contained to the Internet, but around 2005 and 2006 they boiled over into the mainstream and found many high-profile supporters whose comments about 9/11 being an inside job couldnt be ignored by the mainstream media.
