The Confederate Freemason Who Some Believe Predicted World War I, II, And III

When unraveling the story of Albert Pike and his seemingly prophetic letter, we can start with the letter itself. As the Daily Mail says, Pike wrote the letter to Giuseppe Mazzini, an Italian nationalist and propaganda writer who lamented 19th-century Italy's transformation into an elected government. Harboring similar fascist sentiments, Pike defected to the U.S. Confederacy, as Readex explains, where he did things like rhapsodize about the glories of the Civil War in a feverish poem titled "Dissolution of the Union."

Pike's letter comes in 1871, six years after the Civil War ended. In it, per the Daily Mail, he describes World War I (1914 to 1918) and World War II (1939 to 1945) with uncanny accuracy. Regarding World War I, he wrote, "The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic Communism." Regarding World War II, he wrote, "The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine."

Accurate as these statements might be, there's a problem with them — the Nazi party didn't by name exist until 1920, almost 50 years after Pike apparently penned his letter.
