Connecting the Conspiracy Dots Mar 04, 2008
By RJ
"Book-Lover"
Covering a wide array of hot-button, often polarizing subjects such as Zionism, Nazism, radical terrorists factions, and where each fits into this highly controversial picture. Livingstone has delivered an important, albeit highly subjective book that's part history, part ideology/theology and part conspiracy theory. Terrorism and the Illuminati is an in-depth view of secret societies, terrorism and present day conflicts, from the perspective that all are interconnected, related and fueling each other, thus propelling the world towards a "clash of civilizations."
Terrorism and the Illuminati traces and connects individual groups such as the Holy Grail, Freemasonry, the Knights Templar and many others. Lords, legends, myths and elite bloodlines, when analyzed independently appear insignificant and are easily ignored. However, when the dots are connected, a very different picture beings to come into focus. According to like-minded individuals, keeping these connections broken and the lines blurred, has allowed these secret societies and their members to operate in the shadows of a meticulously cultivated public image.
While many dismiss the idea of secret societies and a one world government as mere conspiracy theories run amok, many others would argue that is part of the plan. One should stop and remember the words of the commissioner regarding the catastrophic events of 9-11..."a failure of policy and a failure of imagination..." Thinking outside the box has always been a trait of forward thinking individuals and societies. Analyzing the ridiculous or outlandish has resulted in numerous discoveries and inventions that in retrospect have shaped communities, academics, governments and the world as a whole and their creator's are given the highest, most prestigious recognitions. Although the ideas presented in this book have been discussed for hundreds and hundreds of years, interest in these age-old theories is obviously still alive and well, as was demonstrated by the response to Dan Brown's book "The Da Vinci Code," as well as, the popularity of the subsequent movie, which was an international blockbuster.
I recommend this book to those who enjoy reading books about the occult, secret societies, one world conspiracies and it's possible link to terrorism. Also those who simply enjoy a challenging, thought provoking read that stimulates the mind. Terrorism and the Illuminati offers a strong starting point to begin your own research into this interesting, controversial discussion. Livingstone has included (at the end of the book) an exhaustive resource list that provides readers with lots of information, from a variety of sources.
(I picked up several typographical errors, however, these are not so egregious as to interrupt the flow of the dialogue to any substantial degree. The blame for such errors lands squarely with the editors and proof-readers.)

 Terrorism and the Iluminati Dec 30, 2009
By N. Anderson
"merlin"
This book fills in the gaps that have been left out of other narratives on this topic. The author pulls no punches on describing secret societies and their impact on the cultures and history of the world.
Everyone should read this book to become informed as to what is going on behind our backs. If they did we could stop this process and lead happier lives.

Tremendously thought-provoking Jul 29, 2010
By TruthSeeker
What a job in connecting/stringing vast amount of information together! Those who do not do their own research will fall victim to the traps set up by the elite who control almost all mainstream media. Thank you Mr. Livingstone for opening my eyes!

Terrorist components - you start to get the bits you never understood Sep 09, 2011
By LM
"bas1a"
This overview has me in its thrall.
It is packed with bits of history I didn't know, including a lot of things bridging Christian Bible, Jewish Torah, and schoolbook history. Somehow they come together as one coherent narrative. Readable too. The author has packed it with detail and references to processes.
It suggests terrorist gangs are (more or less) part of a continuous process going back a very long time. And there is detail, detail, detail.
My questions, which I thought private to myself, get answered. It is seductive and addictive.
How cosy and comfortable it would be just to say, "At long last, now I understand ..."
Unfortunately, disinfo always has to be considered. And even in an excellent text there can be well-meaning mistakes. But I want to trust it.
I do trust it.
