History Needs Re-Writing    

An Anatomy of Terror: A History of Terrorism – Andrew Sinclair

The political use of terror has always been with us, whether in the murderous seizing of power by the ancients, through the outlawed campaigns of guerrillas, or via the state sanctioned terror of war. From Homer to Al-Qaeda, terrorism has flourished in one form or another, bloodily shaping our history.

Andrew Sinclair’s unique book brilliantly explores the methods and thinking behind terrorism and shows how the nature of terror has not changed since the days of the Assassins and the Mongol hordes. Meticulously researched and beautifully written, ‘An Anatomy of Terror’ dissects the uses of atrocity from the Roman destruction of Carthage to the alleged suicide attacks on the World Trade Centre.

Bold, incisive and compelling, ‘An Anatomy Of Terror’ is an essential history for our times.

The New Rulers of the World – John Pilger

John Pilger is one of the world’s most renowned investigative journalists and documentary film-makers. In this fully updated collection, he reveals the secrets and illusions of modern imperialism.

Beginning with Indonesia, he shows how General Suharto’s bloody seizure of power in the 1960s was part of a western design to impose a ‘global economy’ on Asia. A million Indonesians died as the price for being the World Bank’s “model pupil”. In a shocking chapter on Iraq, he allows us to understand the true nature of the West’s war against the people of that country. And he dissects, piece by piece, the propaganda of the ‘war on terror’ to expose its Orwellian truth.

Finally, he looks behind the picture postcard of his homeland, Australia, to illuminate an enduring legacy of imperialism: the subjugation on the First Australians.

Kaspar Hauser: Where Did He Come From? – Terry Boardman

According to contemporary rumours, probably current as early as 1829, Kaspar Hauser was the hereditary prince of Baden who was born 29 September 1812, and who, according to known history, died 16 October 1812.

It was alleged that this prince was switched with a dying baby and subsequently surfaced 16 years later as Kaspar Hauser in Nuremberg. In this case, his parents would have been Charles, Grand Duke of Baden and Stéphanie de Beauharnais, cousin by marriage and adopted daughter of Napoleon. Because Charles had no surviving male progeny, his successor was his uncle Louis, who was later succeeded by his half-brother, Leopold.

Leopold’s mother, the Countess of Hochberg, was the alleged culprit of the boy’s captivity. The Countess was supposed to have disguised herself as a ghost, the “White Lady”, when kidnapping the prince. Her motive evidently would have been to secure the succession for her sons.

After Hauser's death, it was claimed further that he was murdered, again because of his being the prince.

The Falsification of History – John Hamer

‘The Falsification of History’ (available from http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/John_Hamer) relates the current, insidious plight facing the human race as a direct result of a grand deception that has been imposed upon it for tens of thousands of years, if not longer. This has been perpetrated by the systematic, ongoing falsification of history in much the same way as perpetrated by the powers that be in the strangely prophetic novel ‘1984’, by George Orwell. We have all been deceived on a monumental scale by a tiny clique of people who by their own birthright and bloodlines absolutely believe that they have the divine right to rule over us by whatever method best suits their purposes. In order to achieve this they have lied, deceived, murdered and even committed genocide down the millennia in an attempt to bring their ultimate goal to fruition. Find out about the use of drugs, vaccinations, micro-chipping, mind control, trans-humanism and 24/7 distractions such as non-stop sports, entertainments and the invasive ‘celebrity culture’ that attempts to pervade our whole lives.

Scaremongers: Advocacy of War and Rearmament, 1896-1914 – Anthony Morris

Was the First World War inevitable? or did the British press conspire with the Establishment to create such conditions of prejudice against Germany that war became inevitable?

The story of the scaremongers is part of the fabric of late Victorian and Edwardian politics. A complex tale, it has been made more so by the myths surrounding it. It concerns men of every rank and degree, but always at its centre – arguing, persuading, cajoling, wheedling, hiding, warning, censuring, advertising – are the owners, editors and correspondents who, for different reasons at different times, insisted that German and Britain were set upon a collision course and whose doom-laden prophesies became dreadful reality on 4th August, 1914.

Chaos and Governance in the Modern World System – Giovanni Arrighi & Beverly J. Silver

‘Chaos and Governance in the Modern World System’ distils a systematic process out of the past Dutch and English hegemonies and applies it to the current American hegemony. The authors state that the end of a hegemony cycle always coincides with financial crisis. The current accounting scandals and stock market turmoil could be symptoms of the end of the American hegemony.

The book goes into detail into the history and mechanics of each hegemony and describes the transition between each of them. In the conclusions, Asia – and more particularly China – is pointed out as the next potential hegemon.

The underlying theoretical canvas of the book makes sense. It gives a historical and scientific look on the mechanics of globalisation.

Descent into Chaos: The world's most unstable region and the threat to global security – Ahmed Rashid

In ‘Descent Into Chaos’, Ahmed Rashid explores the most volatile and dangerous region in the world: Pakistan and Afghanistan.

The war on terror is being lost – but not just in Iraq. As this devastating book shows, the real crisis zone now lies in central Asia.

Veteran reporter Ahmed Rashid has unparalleled access to the region and knows its leading players, from presidents to warlords. Here he documents how closely Pakistan's US-backed regime is linked with extremists; how broken promises in Afghanistan have led to a resurgent Taliban fed by drugs money; and how the largest landmass in the world is now a breeding ground for terrorism.

In this story of squandered opportunities, misguided alliances and double-dealing, Rashid pinpoints with chilling accuracy where the true threat to our global security comes from.

False Flag & Faking Terrorism    

911 Finding the Truth – Andrew Johnson

What really happened on 9/11? What can the evidence tell us? Who is covering up the evidence, and why are they covering it up? In ‘9/11 Finding the Truth’, Andrew Johnson – a regular speaker at New Horizons – attempts to give answers to these questions in his profoundly impressive and highly readable book.

In the book, Andrew Johnson teams up with Dr. Judy Wood – a lecturer in Applied Physics, Interferometry, and Structural/Materials Engineering Science – who shows that the towers were pulverised, as they stood, into dust clouds, almost certainly by the use of ‘Free-Energy’ technology.

Furthermore, Andrew shows that the degree of hostility towards Dr. Wood by many so-called “9/11 Truthers” sadly leads one to the inescapable conclusion that the Truth Movement itself has been hijacked. Amongst the many transcriptions of interviews, of particular relevance is the section dealing with well known 9/11 “Truther” Ace Baker’s attempts to discredit the “Hutchison Effect” by having made a video, faking a Hutchison Effect event. This video is being widely used by the “Truthers” to discredit Dr. Wood.

This book is of immense value to anyone who takes the future of this planet seriously. It is obvious that the 9th of September, 2001 was one of the most significant days in our recent history: not just a disturbing event of the past, but one that shows what “we’re really up against” in pursuing the truth.

Where Did The Towers Go? Evidence of Directed Free-Energy Technology on 9/11 – Judy Wood

One of the most puzzling questions about the collapse of the Twin Towers on 9/11 is this: why was the pile of debris from these huge buildings so small?

A coherent and painstakingly researched answer comes from Dr. Judy Wood – a lecturer in Applied Physics, Interferometry, and Structural/Materials Engineering Science – in her fascinating book (available from www.wheredidthetowersgo.com).

Basically, she shows that the towers were pulverised, as they stood, into dust clouds by the use of ‘Free-Energy’ technology.

As a respected scientist, Dr. Wood does not speculate on “Who’s to blame?”, but solely on “what happened” that morning: the facts – the observable and verifiable evidence.

Dr. Wood illustrates how the evidence matches with ‘The Hutchison Effect’... energy-field effects born out of the 20th century scientist Nikola Tesla’s experiments and inventions: discoveries of a free-energy from the interference of various beams, energy fields, or electromagnetic waves.

Dr. Wood spoke at New Horizons in 2011. Her exceptional presentation is available on our ‘DVDs For Sale’ web page. Strongly recommended!

9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA – Webster Griffin Tarpley

The thesis of Webster Tarpley’s ‘9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA’ has been enthusiastically received with its working model of the 9/11 plot: a rogue network of moles, patsies, and a commando cell in the privatised intelligence services, backed by corrupt political and corporate media elites. Many people have not been able to see that 9/11 was a false flag.

Through lack of engineering knowledge, they cannot appreciate the significance of physical facts like the free-fall speed of the towers. No maths skills are needed to grasp the more familiar, common-sense fact that an act that is rehearsed is also staged.

Moreover, understanding how practice drills are essential to conduit such operations helps us to recognize many types of false flags, such as the London bombings.

Satanic Purses: Money, Myth, and Misinformation in the War on Terror – R. T. Naylor

Although there has been criticism of some aspects of the American government’s understanding of and response to 9/11, ‘Satanic Purses’ takes the story much further. In a savage critique, R. T. Naylor exposes the official story, and the resulting global War on Islamic Terror, as based on myth, misinformation, and even deliberate disinformation – all of it premised on misguided notions about the nature of terrorist financing and the structure and organization of terrorist groups. Naylor argues that bin Laden’s role in various terrorist outrages has been grossly exaggerated and that the idea of al-Qa’idah as a well-financed, centrally directed movement is a fable akin to misconceptions about the Mafia.

He also demystifies the notion of a great anti-Western Islamic resurgence and analyses how and why a story so contrary to easily verifiable reality was concocted and accepted. As ‘Satanic Purses’ makes clear, the myths surrounding the war on terror, particularly the alleged existence of hordes of Islamic terror dollars, have led Western countries, particularly the US, to policies that create death and disorder abroad and the loss of due process and privacy at home. Naylor shows that the secret agendas behind, and the private interests that profit from, an illusory War on Terror may be far more dangerous than the events that led to it.

Religion & Spirituality    

 The World's Religions – Ninian Smart

This book is a revised and updated edition of a popular work, which looks at the world's religions in terms of world history, and as constantly developing systems of belief.

Part I traces the development of religions, as they evolved from the traditions of the ancient world.

Part II examines the changes to faiths and cultures following the Renaissance and the voyages of conquest and discovery, and asks how, why, and with what effect religions have been refashioned over the ages up to today.

In this richly illustrated new edition, religions are described through their symbols, rituals, followers, architecture and art. References, statistics, maps and pictures have been updated and added, illuminating the true nature of each religion.

The text has been thoroughly revised to highlight recent developments, such as the spread of Islam, African-American and Hispanic-American religious experience, and women priests.

History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science – John William Draper

John William Draper, the author, was an (English born) American scientist, philosopher, chemist and photographer. He died in 1882. This book received worldwide recognition and was translated into several languages.

It was banned by the Catholic Church.

Though the language used is verbose by present standards, the book is very erudite and explores every possible avenue of the dichotomy between faith (mainly of the Catholic Church) and reason (of the scientist). It is a remarkably extended exploration of this conflict. One wonders how the Catholic Church could have survived such an onslaught.

Draper is kinder to Islam (for example for protecting and fostering the learning of the Ancient Greeks) and to Protestantism.

This stimulating book gives an excellent later 19th century picture of the thinking on this conflict. The issues raised are still relevant today.

The God Delusion – Richard Dawkins

‘The God Delusion’ caused a sensation when it was published in 2006. Within weeks, it became the most hotly debated topic, with Richard Dawkins himself branded as either saint or sinner for presenting his hard-hitting, impassioned rebuttal of religion of all types.

His argument could hardly be more topical. While Europe is becoming increasingly secularised, the rise of religious fundamentalism – whether in the Middle East or Middle America – is dramatically and dangerously dividing opinion around the world.

In America, and elsewhere, a vigorous dispute between ‘intelligent design’ and Darwinism is seriously undermining and restricting the teaching of science. In many countries, religious dogma from medieval times still serves to abuse basic human rights such as women’s and gay rights. And all, as Dawkins says, from a belief in a God whose existence lacks evidence of any kind.

Dawkins attacks God in all his forms. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry and abuses children.

‘The God Delusion’ is a brilliantly argued, fascinating polemic that will be required reading for anyone interested in this most emotive and important subject.
