The Conspiracy theory Grows
Good conspiracy theories thrive on peoples' imaginations and their paranoia that the world is against them.
The Illuminati Theory had all the ingredients for success. It explained the unexplainable. A small clandestine group, well resourced, well connected, ruthless, impregnable, and with a goal of world domination. The idea fed on peoples' mistrust of the ruling classes and deep suspicion of their elected governments. We see it throughout history. Electing who seemed like good people, promising to change the system and make the world a better place . We were disappointed when they ended up ineffective and corrupt. The promises they made were broken. There must be other forces at work.
So the legend grew that upon their banishment, the Illuminati went underground, but they continued to thrive through their connection to the Masonic movement, which expanded rapidly across Europe and North America.
Financed by international bankers, they used their power to weaken British control in North America in the Revolutionary War, weaken the French in the French Revolution, and use the Napoleonic wars to weaken Europe and create a “One World Order” (after they had helped defeat Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo).
Russia, the one country that refused to become a member of the League of Nations was their next port of call. The Illuminati were behind the creation of the Communist Manifesto, the Russian Revolution and the First World War (to weaken Russia). They were behind the Second World War (to defeat Fascism) and they plan a Third World War between Christians and Muslims. The end result will apparently be a world that is ready to unite in a “New World Order” and a
One World Government.
So what else did the Illuminati have in store?
SEtting up for World domination
A good conspiracy theory makes everything else make sense.
You might think that everything we take for granted in the world such as our government, our food and water production, healthcare and education have all have been created by the people for the people.
You would be wrong.
According to credible conspiracy theorists, the Illuminati has build a network of control that spreads throughout every facet of society. This has been achieved through many decades of careful manipulation and intrigue.
- As near as we can tell, they have had a hand in creating and controlling:
- All the World's Governments.
- All Government intelligence agencies including the CIA, FBI, Mossad and probably the KGB.
- The United Nations
- The US Federal Reserve , The Bank Of England and all the other Central Banks of the World.
- NASA and the US Military
- All Industry groups
- All financial markets
- All the Media
- Organised religion
How do they achieve this? It is apparently a network controlled by just a few thousand individuals who infiltrate organisations using agents known as "sleepers" to gather information and look for ways to exercise control. They occasionally use mind control and body doubles, but on the whole they use well proven techniques such as blackmail, bribery and the threat of physical violence to get their way.
Sometimes, if required, they can also apparently use black magic or their powers of voodoo.
Once inside they can gather secrets, change policy, influence decisions, re educate and on occasion, rewrite history.
Of course, overlaying all these networks are the core group of the world's most powerful elites (who are descended from the thirteen pure bloodlines of the original Illuminati) who use their massive wealth and influence to control the World's leaders.
Suddenly all the pieces come together. Everything makes sense.
AFFIRM OR DEBUNK
It can be argued that the concept of the Illuminati has over time become, for some, a kind of religious belief. Not unlike Christianity or Islam, conspiracy theorists believed a higher power was at work. Unseen, all powerful, and difficult to understand. Over time, however, perhaps because of the depiction of Freemasons as Anti Christian, the Illuminati became something perhaps altogether different from what they intended.
Suddenly, they were loaded up with all sorts of evil baggage. Suddenly, they had their origins in the occult, the Knight's Templar, the Crusades, sinister societies, evil eyes, pyramids and all sorts of other untoward behaviour. Films such as "National Treasure" and "The Da Vinci Code" popularised such theories and helped the conspiracy to take on even more illogical and insane forms.
There is no real proof that the Illuminati exist, much less that they are behind every war, every revolution, every elected government and every public authority or organisation.
I choose to debunk the idea that the Illuminati control all the World's government, industry, media, and defence organisations.
