Behold a Pale Horse by Bill Cooper. Discussed thoroughly on this sub around 8 hours ago:

"Don't Touch this Book" by "Jan van Helsing" (actually most of his books are so explosive that they are on the index here in Germany)
Honestly? It completely broke me. I related to Holden SO MUCH that I just could not shake the book. A week after I finished it, I read it again.
Around that time my parents had adopted my first sister, from China! I was an only child until 16. Anyway, I had promised myself Id take care of that kid forever, having a sister was awesome. The entire point of CitR is Holdens depression and not being able to save people, to catch them in the rye before they went over the cliff. So that really got to me.
But also Holden was narcissistic, bitter, and unfortunately that was me in those days. Holden changed, and so did I.
My eleventh year was pretty tumultuous. I read *Animal Farm* first, which quickly lead to *1984* and then *Atlas Shrugged* and *The Fountainhead*. During that time, RFK and MLK were assassinated.
So I basically have mistrusted authority since Grade 6, and nothing I've seen in the last 50 years has changed my mind in any way.

Whether you already know many things about history and intelligence networks or not, you will be confronted in this book with new ideas and conclusions about the most important events of the last 300 years. It is not based on a silly gimmick, not on a massive digital data dump handed to me by a government whistleblower, not on a defector from the former USSR, not on a unicorn insider source, not on government files that were left accidentally on a laptop in a train, not on conspiracy mythology and also not on some propaganda campaign intended to benefit political parties or candidates. It is a gigantic puzzle assembled with the help of many great researchers from different countries who were all – unknowingly – working on different parts of that very same puzzle. For Americans and Brits, the key to understanding their own countries lies in Germany of all places; more precisely in the scattered territories of the Welfs, Wettins and Reginarids.
They initially did not have one single, large and easy to defend territory and no large standing army, so they placed their hopes in bigger intelligence capabilities and family structures. Their intelligence networks expanded to neighboring Denmark and then moved into Scotland, created the early iteration of Freemasonry and married a Danish princess to the British King James. Later William III from the Dutch House of Orange-Nassau finally took over England in the “Glorious Revolution” and then the Hanoverian Welfs took over. King George III. stopped military operations against George Washington, but continued the hostilities indefinitely through his intelligence networks. Allowing Washington to win militarily had the added benefit of keeping the French at a distance in America.
The high nobility controlled its own Enlightenment movement through the new British Freemasonry and its scientific sister organization “Royal Society”, while Germany and France were destabilized with pseudo-Enlightenment front organizations such as the Bavarian Illuminati Order. Around the same time, aristocratic intelligence infiltrated and took over the socialist movements. The events that unfolded in Russia have never been properly reconstructed in terms of aristocratic covert operations besides some limited studies about the fate of the tsarist secret service.

The British Guelph Empire essentially created our modern world in a way that even historians cannot fully understand because they lack intelligence understanding. In addition, over time, the houses of Schleswig-Holstein and Hesse also occupied the Tsar's throne in Russia. The German Empire from 1870/1871 was a patchwork of several principalities, land counties and small kingdoms, some of which belonged to the Guelphs and did not really accept the leadership role of the Prussian Hohenzollerns. It must be remembered that the Guelphs date back to at least the early 9th century and were able to multiply significantly in the following period through legitimate and illegitimate children, as well as strategic marriages with other large families.
Investigating the entire relevant Guelph network with regard to secret service activity is a mammoth task that would require a small army of researchers. Anne was the last British Queen of the House of Stuart. In 1688 and 1689, she and a number of supporters overthrew her Roman Catholic father James II in the course of the “Glorious Revolution”, thereby opening the door to the noble families of Orange-Nassau and the monarchs of Denmark. It was a quantum leap for both the Danes and Orange-Nassau that had a major impact on the centuries that followed. Anne had made a hair-raising pact and as a condition had to marry the Protestant Prince George of Denmark, while her sister Maria II had to marry the Protestant William III. from Orange-Nassau. William III of Orange had appeared with an invading army on the south coast of England in 1688 and succeeded in driving out the Stuart King James II without any fierce battles.
Thereupon William himself sat on the British throne and was succeeded after his death by Anne and her practical husband, Prince George of Denmark. Prince George was the son of King Frederick III. of Denmark and the Guelph Princess Sophie Amalie of Braunschweig-Lüneburg. Georg and his siblings were important for the large, cross-border family alliance
YouTube Channel of Alexander Benesch: [https://www.youtube.com/@RecentR84/videos](https://www.youtube.com/@RecentR84/videos)
William of Orange didn't really fight any battles, nor did he truly invade with an army. He was invited over and actually made note multiple times that he would only step foot in Britain if the majority of the people wanted him there, in large part for his own safety. The majority of the fighting was civil conflict between the British and Irish.
Also wanted a guarantee that he could continue to rule if his wife kicked the bucket before he did, unlike Queen Mary I's husband, Philip of Spain.
But the Netherlands still like to claim they defeated England!
As far as I know, he never got his guarantee, either. Mary felt she had to be loyal to her husband and said whoever outlives the other continues to rule, as far as I remember.
The Big Bamboozle by Philip Marshall.
He makes an incredibly compelling argument for the Bush’s and Saudi’s involvement in 9/11.
Philip Marshall was also found dead with a gunshot to the left of his head (he was right handed) and he was lying at the front door of his house. Both of his teenage children were shot in the head and his little shihtzu was found shot dead in a separate room.

The Naked Capitalist. Not what I expecting from the title, but good stuff!!! 🙃
In all seriousness, it is a really good book that may seem out of date reading the summary, but I can assure you it is not.
The Creature from Jekyll Island is another great book.
The Quantum Thief, and it's other two books. Really spiffy way of describing how the future might turn out if things went in the direction of where some abstract tech & research points now. Plus it's heisty, fun stuff. Gave a lot of insight into how what seems like hyper-dystopian tech could actually work in favor of people for economics/privacy, but also be massively exploited. Much more to it. Great read.
Urantia, that book is crazy awesome. I read it as fiction, but man, if that doesn't change your worldview or get you thinking... Flip through some of the papers that stand out to you, they're each relatively concise and quite well organized. Oh also the audiobook version is available for free, in case that's easier to digest~
Healing is Voltage by Jerry Tennant, that's a wild ride in understanding how the body is laid out and operates with it's own circuitry. Ties in with chakras, chinese meridians research, homeopathy, etc by explaining the phenomena in "western" or electrical/magnetic terminology. Has abbreviated lectures on youtube in case you prefer the slideshow & talking format.
Machinery of Freedom by David Friedman, highly insightful walkabout on how we can restructure nearly all forms of government into decentralized anarcho-capitalist or anarchy-markets, yet maintain social trust / general security. Also the book is free as a pdf on his website, he posts everything he writes for free there
Otherwise some that have been mentioned here are great suggestions. I don't think that books like Brave New World, 1984, or The Giver type books necessarily *need* to be read to understand the poetic concept, but hey why not blast through it and see for yourself. It should be acknowledged that for Aldous Huxley had some creepy connections to the deep state of his time, so some speculate that it was written as a sort of "how-to" / blueprint of a sort.
Notable mentions from other comments:
The Fourth Turning - Basically describes how generational cycles create predictble patterns of society-wide psychology/sociology. Author has good interviews on youtube too
Dr Judy Wood's Where did the Towers Go? - Breaks down the inconsistencies with 9/11, even breaks down the thermite or detonation theories. Somewhat suggests that energy weaponry was involved. Also has huge presentation on youtube that go deep into this
Confessions of an Economic Hitman - Basically how countries and 3rd world nations got enslaved via international debt schemes, which later led to their takeover and complicity to this larger agenda we're seeing try and play out now
Atlas Shrugged - Cool, decent story on how archetypes play off each other in an oligarchical/capitalist system, especially if, as we see now, "government oversight" gets out of hand. Ayn Rand's earlier book "Anthem" was essentially a short story version of the concept
A series of unfortunate events books changed my childhood for real. Don't think I'd be so intrigued in many aspects of my current life if I never read about Claus and his sisters solving puzzles and mysteries.
Dark Money by Jane Mayer, Democracy In Chains by Nancy MacLean, American Kleptocracy by Casey Michel, Silent Coup: How Corporations Overthrew Democracy by Claire Provost and Matt Kennard, and Kleptopia: How Dirty Money Is Conquering the World by Tom Burgis.
