Wonderful result of some very hard work

I warmly recommend this extraordinary book.

The Predators is an important book, a deeply researched and epic account of the terrible mess our beautiful blue planet is in thanks to the appalling legacies, over many centuries, of rich and power crazed individuals. This book sheds a bright, penetrating light on conspiracy fact, not theory, and shows how our world is really run. Meeuwis' work changed my life for the better and on reading his book, it will change yours too.
Dr Jim Macgregor, author of the Foreword of this book
Meeuwis T. Baaijen’s The Predators really is essential reading for anyone (and this should mean everyone!) who wants to understand the world we live in. The breadth of his take is staggering, his clarity is refreshing and his determination to take his analysis right through to its logical conclusion is laudable.
Having already conducted research into some of the issues concerned, I immediately recognized the picture Baaijen paints as a true one, supported by evidence with which I am familiar. And I was delighted to find that, when he explored questions I had not addressed in detail, his conclusions very much confirmed my provisional suspicions as to what was involved.
There is nothing more important to communicate to our fellow human beings than the hidden reality that we are ruled by a global criminal mafia - Glafia as Baaijen calls it - or the "criminocracy" in my own terminology. Such is the threat posed by this entity, which aims to "steal our planet, freedom, and future" as the book's subtitle rightly warns, that large-scale resistance is urgently required.
But how can people be expected to fight against something which they don't even know exists and whose suggested existence they have been brainwashed into regarding as a figment of deluded or ill-intentioned thinking? The Predators provides a solid platform for spreading awareness of the stark reality of the sociopathic Glafia and its domination project.
Its overall vision provides a framework in which other researchers can investigate the thousands of threads that make up the worldwide web of corruption, without ever losing sight of the Big Picture. And this framework of understanding can be the basis of a new movement of international resistance that will go beyond merely identifying the criminocrats and aim to bring their odious rule to an end.

After a lifetime of looking critically at events happening around me without really getting to the underlying reality, I read The Predators, and the fog of history disappeared. The curtains that limited my view were drawn wide open. This book has a very high truth content and is really an eyeopener, and it could lead to an acceleration in the struggle of mankind towards a real civilization.

The Predators offers us an enormously valuable, condensed historic overview of the main driving forces that have shaped our world for centuries, many of them normally invisible for the most of us. Based on long international personal experience and observation, integrating an enormous selection of referenced, outstanding authors and analysts and on tireless research, an invaluable work of historical reinterpretation is presented.
World history becomes understandable, the workings of hidden powers laid bare, and thus a source of great wisdom. This book arrives at a crucial moment, after events such as 911, the recent Covid-19 episode, mass migrations, gender politics, the nearing financial crisis and the alarming resurging of winds of war, amongst many others.

The Predators is dynamite among the treatises on societal organization and governance. It explains the apparently chaotic worldly events since the upswing of the City Republics in Italy around 1500 till the US, China and us today. And it offers a view on the dystopian world that lays ahead. Power and behavior through money, and more power through more money is the central theme.
The Predators is a magistral work. A predicate it already deserves for its numerous supporting quotes and references of earlier great thinkers. I hope it will be available soon and become a global bestseller.

Having researched the historical evolution of economics, finance and geopolitics for many years, I had never found a book as explosive and piercing as The Predators. It clarifies the apparent paradoxes and fills in the gaps with a unique, though radical proposition, that unifies the events that have occurred throughout centuries and makes sense of it all.
