I can at least bump the thread.
Someone ought to walk up to his door and ask him to sign the petition.

Visited the site this summer. It's too far at the moment, but I am happy to see that the project continues. When do the room bookings start?
"Oh, at present there are limits to their powers.
As long as national traditions, private property, and religion exist, as long as there are Kings, Presidents, and Cabinets, they can't become the absolute masters of the world. ~ The Secret of the Zodiac a Novel written in 1933
Excert
1- p.79 I think that some of the Zodiac may not be men of vast wealth but of vast intelligence, providing the organizing brains behind the movement.
And also the mass hypnotism that's exercised over the minds of the public to-day.
How else are we to explain the fact that for no apparent cause, in defiance of all reason,
we find everyone repeating the same thing at the same moment, even though it contradicts all they said yesterday—swayed now in this direction, now in that, as at the wave of a conductor's baton?
The direction must come from somewhere."
"Don't you think largely from the Press ?"
"Yes. But who controls the Press?
What makes so-called constitutional papers boom every subversive theory and suppress contrary propaganda?
There must be some powerful influence in the background working, not only through the Press, but through every means of publicity—broadcasting, the cinema, and so on."
"And that power is the Zodiac?
Twelve super-men like sort of wireless stations sending out messages all over the world ?"
"Yes. I don't mean that I think twelve men alone could supply the whole force of the movement, but, given twelve controlling minds with, perhaps, a trigon of three as an inner directorate and one Supreme Head above the Twelve, it is possible to imagine how through the outer rings of agents running into thousands, all over the world, vast currents of thought may be set in motion.
And if, in opposition to all this, there is no body of dominating thought nor any organization worthy of the name, if, on the contrary, the opposing forces are all disunited and quarrelling amongst themselves, what is there to stop the Zodiac obtaining control of the whole world?"
"Oh, at present there are limits to their powers.
As long as national traditions, private property, and religion exist, as long as there are Kings, Presidents, and Cabinets, they can't become the absolute masters of the world.
They want a completely free hand.
Believing themselves to be supermen—as to a certain extent they are, if only by their manipulation of finance and their power of controlling opinions by careful propaganda and mass suggestion—they feel themselves called upon to control the destinies of the human race and to remodel the world according to their own ideas.">
"Then you think that in a sense they are idealists?"
"Not for a Moment.
They are simply out for power.
But regarding the majority of the human race as mere cattle, they believe their r61e should be to drive them.
(You should google r61e England)
And they may possibly reason that the cattle would be better off under their control than when allowed to gore each other or run amok as they do at present.
Democracy of course is the last thing they've any use for."
"Though they work through democratic movements?"
"Yes, in order to turn the cattle against their present driver
"I see.
It's ingenious and horrible.
Diabolical, in fact.
So diabolical that I can't help wondering— don't think this idiotic, Jimmy—whether there's not some supernatural power at the back of it all. You don't believe that?"
"Yes, I do," Brandon said slowly. He was silent
"I quite believe the Powers of Darkness are behind it.
How else can one account for the anti-religious frenzy of the revolutionaries from the Jacobins to the Bolsheviks?
Still, the devil must work through human agents.
****
One can't imagine Satan editing a newspaper or running a cinema.
The Zodiac are his ministers, ready for love of wealth or power to carry out his purpose."
Replace the name Bolsheviks with Jihad, progressive, radical liberals etc. it is the same MO, the same diabolical spirit!
I am not a learned person like most of you have good control of our language but the good Lord did help me to discern and sort out the garbage!
Its not rocket science

Now the author of this 1933 Novel has baggage but don't let emotion of buzz words keep you from see the method that this diabolical force, this was written over 75 years ago we have the advantage to see the hidden hand clearer view than the author which I feel was a great error, but the author understanding and being able to record these events and describe the process is of great value!
