Put simply, if these folks continue to have their way, the next War to End all Wars may live up to its name, something which they all appear completely oblivious of, or unconcerned, about. Even if one accepts the official record of events surrounding the Great War then, it is patently obvious how consequential it was in the overall scheme of things. In this sense it was the Pandora's Box of Modern History. But in the wake of the revelations in Hidden History, it amongst other things opens up a myriad range of possibilities of what might have been. And what could be! Or should not have been!

Most importantly, it provides us something of a Rosetta Stone by which not just to reinterpret modern history. As indicated, Docherty and Macgregor's revelations also provide a prism through which we might view current events, and where they almost certainly will lead humanity if we do not call to account the heirs of the "Secret Elite" still hell-bent on shaping, to their own malevolent ends, the vistas of the geopolitical landscape. All of it seemingly, at the expense of humanity in general.

The "Pandora's Box", once opened, cannot be closed of course. Yet whilst at the bottom of said Box there was purportedly one thing left behind -- i.e. hope -- one imagines we're all going to need much more than "hope" to avoid, much less survive, the next Great War.
