Synopsis "The Black Hand That Ignited The Great War and The Cold War Sniper"
The opening chapter traces the troubled history of the Balkans up to the assassination of the Austrian Archduke Ferdinand by linking the influences of the Greek-Trojan War, Alexander the Great's conquest, the creation of Islam and Catholicism, conflicts with the Ottoman Empire, and the deadly and little known secret societies of Omalinida, Black Hand, Young Turks, the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization, and the Croatian Ustasha. The Serbian terror group the Black Hand is disclosed as the force that ignited the worldwide cataclysm of World War I and the legacy that the War to End All Wars left the world when Gavrilo Princip murdered Ferdinand. This chapter uncovers the motives of the Black Hand and the possibility that other secret societies and political forces joined in the plot. It investigates the legacy of the war that created the Bolshevik Revolution and themes for film, literature, and religion that have shaped Western culture.
