[7][8] Carr also worked for the Canadian Intelligence Service during World War II, and in 1944 he published Checkmate in the North, a book about an invasion by the Axis forces to take place in the area of the CFB Goose Bay.
[11] According to Political Research Associates, a group studying right-wing extremism: Carr promoted the anti-Semitic variant on conspiracism with books such as Pawns in the Game and Red Fog over America.
Carr believes that an age-old Jewish Illuminati banking conspiracy used radio-transmitted mind control on behalf of Lucifer to construct a one world government.
"[14] Dan Brown, although he probably had his information from a different source, includes in his novel Angels & Demons an interpretation of the Illuminati by a US$1 bill and repeats the main arguments of Carr in Pawns in the Game.
Carr's Federation was closely linked with the Californian Council of Christian Laymen (1949–1964), especially with Alfred Kohlberg, Edward Geary Lansdale, and Stan Steiner.
One of Carr's most-lasting contributions to modern conspiracy theories was his discussion of an alleged plan for three world wars, often referred as the 3WW, which he believed was developed by a Confederate general and Masonic scholar, Albert Pike.
In Pawns in the Game, Carr claimed that World War I had been fought to enable the Illuminati to overthrow the powers of the Russian tsar and to turn Russia into the stronghold of atheistic communism.
Moving into the future, Carr claimed that a report came into his possession through the Canadian Intelligence Service of an alleged speech in 1952 by Rabbi Emanuel Rabinovich in which it was made known that the Secret Powers wished to precipitate World War III within five years.
As is the case with many of his claims, Carr did not provide a source for that scenario, but he mentions a letter written by Pike and addressed to Italian revolutionary leader Giuseppe Mazzini, which outlined a plan for unleashing "Nihilists and Atheists" after the end of World War III.
[23] Carr stated that he learned about the letter from the anti-Mason, Cardinal José María Caro Rodríguez of Santiago, Chile, the author of The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled (Hawthorne, California, Christian Book Club of America, 1971).
However, Carr's later book, Satan, Prince of This World (written in 1959), included the following footnote: "The Keeper of manuscripts recently informed the author that this letter is NOT cataloged in the British Museum Library.
Pierre-André Taguieff states that Carr gave an ultimate and synthetic account[clarification needed] of the "legend," which links together the Illuminati, Mazzini and Pike in a satanic plot for world domination.
In that kind of philosophy of history anticipating a final "World Government," the Illuminati are part of a satanic historical force that contributes to the evil original plot.
The French philosopher and historian Pierre-André Taguieff was paid to write La Foire aux illuminés: Ésotérisme, théorie du complot, extrémisme (2005) (The Illuminati fair: esotericism, plot theory, extremism) where he makes an analysis of Pawns in the Game.
Since 1998, Carr's most famous books (Pawns in the Game, The Conspiracy to Destroy All Existing Governments and Religions, and Satan, Prince of this World) were translated into French.
