 Dr Makow is a Brave Man Nov 23, 2009
By Ken
If you're not sure whether you should buy this book, I urge you to go to savethemales.ca and take a look at some of the articles that Makow has authored. I have spent many hours on researching this topic, and Makow has been one of the best sources for information to date. The accuracy and clarity of his writings is remarkable. It's time we found out the truth about the world, the way it's run, and where it's headed. It may be a harsh dose of reality, but "the truth will set us free".

In the End, Quite Worthwhile May 09, 2009
By Michael Tozer
I really didn't know what to think of this book when I first received it. And I must thank Amazon's excellent recommendation system for bringing it to my attention. Previously, I knew Henry Makow only for his Internet outreach. So, I had no real expectations for his work as an author. And, in the end, I was pleasantly surprised, and edified by this work.
This book is really a series of essays on the influence of occult forces throughout history even down to the present day. As such, the essays are not necessarily completely congruent in terms of message and theme. And this can be a bit distracting. Finally though, a theme does emerge: Our fallen world is controlled by powerful occult forces. And these we must resist. This I can fully support.
Makow does go to great pains to let us know that he is an ethnic Jew who disapproves of the machinations of powerful Jews, and others. This also we can wholeheartedly support. The threat to our world is not based on ethnicity in the final analysis. When you think about it, the thoughts that are in a person's mind are much more dispositive of their actions than the blood that flows through their veins. This important point is well made in this series of essays. In the end, it is an important book and well worth the time, money, and effort. We are again grateful to Amazon for their excellent recommendation system. God bless.

So much to say... Jul 11, 2010
By V-ROD
"Bookworm"
There is so much to say about this book. This is actually a series of articles with no chapters or index. But, this book offers alot of insight into the Illuminati and the subversive means they use to gain control of the world. The author lists many books as references for the reader to gather more information. In fact I have ordered a few from Amazon. I am not sure how to classify this book. It is not a good beginner for readers unfamiliar with the Illuminati, nor is it the end all book, because it has way to much speculation. Which leads me to the negatives of this book. A lot of speculation and blanket statements without supporting evidence. Also, the author uses the word "Jew" in every article which becomes very nauseating.
Finally, one thing readers may miss in reading this book(which is actually the theme); the author makes it very plain that this is essentially a spiritual battle for the soul of mankind. You and I have a choice to submit to Christ(goodness)or Satan(evil).

Behind the Shadows Jan 04, 2010
By syed saboor
Ever since I heard of Henry Mackow, I have been an avid reader of his articles and books. Mackow makes it clear the warped maneuverings of organizations like the Illuminati and others in trying to pave the way for a New World Order. Actually, when I read his latest book, "The Illuminati: The Cult that Hijacked the World," all my past thoughts about conspiracy theories and the impact of an elite group of men and institutions bent on creating war, discords, corruption, amongst other things became crystal clear, and even logical. After all, throughout history there have always been--to steal a term from Adam Smith--a "hidden" hand engineering revolutions and calamities to create a terrain commnensurate with their interests. The Opium wars in China, the disaster of the U.S.S. Maine, the blowing up of the Reichstag, etc..
In this book, "The Illuminati," Mackow takes the reader through a trajectory of a history marked with connivance of high officials and groups, who use human beings as guinea pigs and fund mass murderers. In an effort to destabilize society, they create vice and then force it unto the masses. War is used to sabotage society as well as install their power brokers in an effort to maintain the secret societies' control of the status quo. And much of this does ring true. If anybody is aware of the founding of Ameica, secret societies, like the Freemasons played a central role in the creation of the United States.
The most vivid aspect of this book is how Mr. Mackow shows conclusively with evidence about the ultimate objective of the "elite." He shows how conspiracy is real and not fiction, especially when he debunks the attacks on "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion." The book itself lays out the blueprint for world government, which is going on right now. Our media is a propaganda transmitor and molds our minds into the "elite's" way of thinking. The rise of Communism was aided and abetted by mainly Jews and its effects were disasterous upon humanity.The nazis and Hitler were definately in league with their ambitions.
Even if you are a skeptic, you will realize that "The Illuminati," is not a fable. The book draws from "real" people who were killed and abused by this cult and its related organizations--the C.I.A., among others. Cathy O' Brien and others mentioned in this book testify to that reality. I greatly recommnend this book for anybody interested in wanting to know what pushes world events and also to discern the present state of affairs with the ills of American imperialism going in the Middle East and elsewhere!Illuminati: The Cult that Hijacked the World

makes you think Jul 15, 2010
By Gato
I found this book to be serious fuel for thought. Although Dr. Makow has I believe erroneously split the world into good and evil he makes a facinating argument about the power of globalized banking cartels and the influence they have had on historical and contemporary events. As a critical and observant historian I think his conspiritorial thesis that points to the the weakening of long held human cultural, social, political, and economic foundations should be taken very seriously. If power is going to take its natural course--which is to seek more power--then any barriers to that natural progression would have to be dismantled. Imagine destroying a groups social cohesiveness {i.e culture and norms} by weakening their idenity, education, community, history, belief system, and language. Then take away their right to property and economic independence via forced debt instrumnets {i.e bank loans, credit, morgages, franchises, power/water independence, and property rights}. Now you have the recepie for modern day global/corporate feudalism and a return to medieval social and economic hierarchial systems. The idea of secret societies or cults being behind these methodical designs intended to undermine people's ability to remain sovereign and resistant to this type of one world situation was not convincing as of yet. I will be looking closely for more evidence. It seems to me that the capitalist banking cartels {IMF, World Bank, Federal Reserve} have gained momentum over the last 50 yrs and do have a master plan to connect all economies through global free trade agreements and rapid digital capital flows, however, I am not convinced of an underground black occult conspiracy that is taking orders from Satan. I am not totally dismissing his theory but I need to know more. While Dr. Makow is a Jew he reveals a group of greedy, selfish, and evil Jews who have been behind the most brutal events of the 20th century {WWI & WWII}. He points out that the formation of Israel was orchestrated by the Illuminati with help from it's members in the United Nations. Makow believes there are good Jews and those who are using Judaism and anti-Semitism as a cover to complete their very patient and selfish plan of dominating the planet. I do know that Jewish financers and organizers played a crucial role in convincing President Truman and the British government to grant statehood to Israel after WWII. Does this mean these people were part of a dark cult called the illuminati? As I said at the outset of my review, this book will make you think; however, don't allow these powerful ideas to draw you in and prevent you from using critical thought, wisdom, history, and insight as you seek to gain understanding from the claims established by this very fascinating and brilliant author. Dr. Makow turns history over and shakes the hell out of it. Amazing and intriguing. Continue to chanllenge the stauts quo and remember a differnt world is possible. Peace & Respect.
