The Most Evil Secret Societies in History by Shelley Klein Read Free Book Online Page B

find destroyed, while he himself was placed under arrest by the SS who then ‘persuaded’ him that his best option was to leave Germany for good.
    Sebottendorff fled from Germany, a broken, friendless man, taking himself off on a world tour that eventually led him to Istanbul. Shortly after the end of the war, on 9 May 1945, having seen Germany defeated, Sebottendorff died. The circumstances surrouding his demise are somewhat unclear as he drowned whilst swimming in the Bosphorus, but most historians agree that it was probably suicide. Having seen everything he held dear destroyed, there was nothing much left to live for.
    An interesting footnote to the Thule Society’s history is the present-day plethora of web sites dedicated not only to the preservation of the Society’s memory, but also (and more disturbingly) to the promulgation of its vile theories. Tap in the words ‘Thule Society’ to any search engine and it brings up a multitude of results, although some of the listed sites present ‘facts’ verging on the ludicrous. The Thule, says one site, were Satanists who practiced Black Magic. Thule Society members also enjoyed a bizarre form of Sexual Magic which ‘awakened penetrating visions into the workings of Evil Intelligences and bestowed phenomenal magical powers’. The Thule Society held occult séances. One site spells Sebottendorff’s name incorrectly not just once but three times; Sebetondof, Sebettenduff and Sebetendorf while another can’t decide when precisely the Thule Society first opened its books, stating that it did so in 1908, and then again in 1910, and then again in 1919. Perhaps realizing that their research isn’t quite up to scratch, further sites fantasize that Hitler, far from dying in his Berlin bunker, is still alive, having escaped Allied forces and flown to Thule, which they generally believe lies in a northerly direction. Indeed, if you believe these sites, Hitler has been living happily on an ice floe for the past sixty years.
    But perhaps the most curious of all the claims now available comes from a web site called Unexplained Mysteries which claims that Thule Society members believed the Aryan race originated on another planet or star system called Alderbaran whose inhabitants were blond and blue eyed. Their leader was a woman or ‘queen’ called Isais whilst other eminent Alderbarans included someone called Malok who was ‘the commander of their military presence on earth’. 12
    Whatever some may believe, the fact is that the original Thule Society was a secretive, far-right organization whose highly suspect beliefs flavored what was to come in Germany for the next decade and a half.

MUTI – RITUAL SACRIFICE IN LONDON
    The victim may be a blood relative or one of their own children, but is never a stranger and definitely never an enemy. The child is not killed because they are angry with it. They are thankful to the child. The child is actually being sacrificed so that these people can have something of an advancement. It is to attain a goal that is unattainable by normal sacrifice [the sacrifice of an animal], whether that goal is prosperity or high political office. To our western minds, the concept of ritual murder is gruesome. But 2,000 years ago Jesus Christ was sacrificed for the good of the community – and the theory is that this is good for the community.

    D uring an average year in London, the Metropolitan Police and the Coroner’s Court deal with between forty and forty-five bodies recovered from the River Thames, but on September 21, 2001, officers were shocked to find the badly mutilated corpse of a child floating in the water near Tower Bridge. The body appeared to be that of an Afro-Caribbean boy, aged about five. For want of a real name, the police decided to call him
