Moreover, on those rare occasions when conspiracies and combinations have been exposed, they have all too often succeeded in merely going underground, metamorphosing and emerging anew after a "decent" interval, to resume their subversive, murderous activities. This apparently was the case with the Cathars, the Templars, the Bavarian Illuminati, and, of course, with the American communists and their sponsors following the McCarthy era.
Obviously a very worthwhile bit of history for anyone involved in eliminating Islamic extremists. Hopefully we will be more successful there than we have been with the Communists.
