In seinen Visionen erschaute er unter anderem einen Dritten Weltkrieg, der offenbar durch eine furchtbare Aggression des radikalen Islam (vielleicht im Bündnis mit anderen despotischen Mächten) gegen den Westen ausgelöst wird. Dass er ein begnadeter Seher war, bewies Alois Irlmaier in seinem dramatischen Leben vielfach.

On June 14, 1863, US Major General John Adams Dix received the following directive from General-in-Chief Henry Halleck: "All your available force should be concentrated to threaten Richmond, by seizing and destroying their railroad bridges over the South and North Anna Rivers, and do them all the damage possible."

Gegen das Vergessen. Theodor Plieviers Roman Stalingrad, in 26 Sprachen übersetzt und seit seinem Erscheinen ein Bestseller, ist unbestritten das bedeutendste dokumentarische Epos über den Zweiten Weltkrieg.

During the Vietnam War the book served as an inspiration and guide for the Vietcong, which brought the book to the attention of the American military.

Following the passing of King Sanatruk in 110 A.D., King Osroes of Parthia appoints a new Armenian sovereign with neither consultation nor consent of Emperor Trajan. Three years later, he forcibly removes the king and installs another, again without the knowledge or permission from Rome.
