The temptation is always to look at the events of the day as merely accidental events. American Education and Television present reality as a collection of unplanned events. Stuff just happens. When I attended government schools and took history, it was all about memorization of random names and events. Even in college, the tests got more sophisticated, but still, I was required to memorize the names of trees, but I was never taught there was a forest-the Big Picture. Consequently, whether you are memorizing the names of the most famous WWII generals, or battle strategies, I always felt something was lacking. When I was a sophomore in college I read Machiavelli's The Prince. That book changed my life. That book taught political leaders how to manipulate reality and thus, to change people's experience of what they think is real. I started looking at textbooks and wondering, How much of what I am reading is real and how much is the manipulation of 'the real.'
As I write, we are undergoing and experiencing the greatest manipulation of reality since Satan convinced Adam that he could become a god. As a result, mankind has become enslaved to the powers of Satan. 'Slavery' is a hot word right now, but very few know its true meaning. All men are slaves from birth: it is just given expression in different forms at different times and places. I know the joke is: I would much rather be a slave to money and the rat race to get it, than be a slave to the life of a factory worker, or a serf/peasant in times past. But that is a diversion from the real slavery which holds all men in bondage.
This book is about POWER. That is the foundation for the history's big picture. While the movies state, Follow the Money, the real theme should be, Follow the Power. That is what men want more than anything else. Yes, it is better to be enslaved to money than to a factory, but the money does not bring you power. Someone else has the power over your life. The money is just an illusion to blind you to your real existence. I want to expose you in this book to the real battles for power and how they are revealed in your life. Remember, I am not talking about the power struggles you see on the news with the riots and anarchy. That is a mere illusion of power created to keep people enslaved to the ruling principalities and powers.
