RedlightG20 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I've been hooked on this UFO Hunters show on History Channel. So I'm most interested in the the Roswell incident, probably followed closely by the JFK assassination. What about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnLockesGhost Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I find the conspiracy theory that we didn't land on the moon to be most humorous. It's up there with 9/11 conspiracy theories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 "Believe" isn't really the right word. But . . . Everybody remember the Anthrax attacks? (You know. First ever use of a WMD on American soil. First use by a terrorist. Those Anthrax attacks.) When they happened, there was a lot of speculation about the selection of the targets. The first target was a reporter, in Florida, for a tabloid. The next two were a Congressman and a Senator, but they weren't the Speaker or the Majority Leader. Lots of people wondering why they weren't targeted on the guys at the top of the roster, so to speak. And why a tabloid reporter? My conspiracy-theory brother told me some things that he'd been reading on some conspiracy-theory sites he frequented. They pointed out that both the Congressman and the Senator had recently introduced resolutions calling for lifting the trade embargo against Cuba. And that the tabloid reporter had recently done a conspiracy theory "article" about organized crime/terrorists running the Cuban exile community in South Florida. Among other things, claiming that the organization, which owns a few airplanes which they use to fly over Cuban airspace to drop leaflets, was receiving US military assistance to help them successfully penetrate Cuban airspace. He said that the conspiracy theorists were claiming that the Anthrax used in the attacks was made by the US military, and that it had been given to the Cuban exile community, assuming that they would drop it over Cuba. (But that they'd chosen to employ it against people in the US who opposed their objectives, instead.) And predicted that the government's response to the first ever use of a WMD on US soil would be to "investigate" it until the public lost interest, and then announce that "gee, we have no idea where this came from." I told him that he was a kooky conspiracy theorist, and that the American people would never tolerate the dropping of the investigation into the source of the first use of WMDs on US soil. However, now, the thought keeps occurring to me, that when a scientist somes up with a theory, and he claims that, according to his theory, certain things are going to happen in the future, and those things do, in fact, happen, then the credibility of the theory is then enhanced.

Skin'Em84 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Illuminati. Mainly because, while I doubt its true, would be pretty up there in terms of scale of theory if it is. A secret society of the richest people in the world controlling the fate of the world, destroying and creating millions of lives, to garner money and power? Intense.

mjah Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 ... And predicted that the government's response to the first ever use of a WMD on US soil would be to "investigate" it until the public lost interest, and then announce that "gee, we have no idea where this came from." Well, in 2008 the FBI used DNA to prove that the mail-attack anthrax was the same as the stuff in Bruce Ivins' Fort Detrick lab. Right around that time, Ivins killed himself by deliberately OD'ing on medication. Of course, he didn't leave a note saying "I did it," so some folks won't be convinced. But if it was just crushing public and governmental scrutiny that led him to suicide, I fail to understand why Hatfill is still alive. Also, I could have told you in 2001 that bin Laden had a zillion places to hide, and that our leaders would call him Public Enemy #1 until they eventually realized we probably weren't going to get him any time soon... at which point, as he stopped being a daily news item, our leaders would say he's "not so important," claim that "he's probably dead," and refuse to turn up the heat any higher on him even when he turned up alive. Yet, I knew of no conspiracy. I just knew that if we didn't get him, the government would do what it always does... downplay its disappointments. :whoknows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I generally agree with you, couldn't you also play the card saying that the government downplayed (or covered up completely) a number of potentially catastrophic incidents, in the interest of protecting the mindset of the American people?

I suppose so. Surely any civilization that predominantly believes in an Iraq-al Qaeda link will willingly believe in other governmental fairy tales.

SparkleMotion Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 The Pakistani connection to 9/11. I generally agree with the mainstream version of events, but why don't we know more about the fact that an ISI general supposedly wired $100,000 to Mohammed Atta prior to the attacks? At least investigate enough to quash this rumor or explain it away. Why keep us guessing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbo Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I'd say for me it's the fact the the most powerful families of the former British Empire who in previous generations quietly subverted the thrones/governments of Western Europe (save Russia) and are still the ones pulling the strings behind the figureheads in the U.S., France (yup), Germany (yup) India, China (yup) and more, including creating both the appearance and the reality of tensions between those players all in accordamce with maintaining their own positions and secrecy.

Switchgear Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Operation Pentavirate - The government program that is in place to create conspiracy theories so that the most concerned citizens don't pay attention to what's really going on in the government. I happen to know for a fact that they have people highly placed in the more credible 9/11 conspiracy groups, subtly directing them to follow false leads. All of the things conspiracy theorists have been wrong about? The government is behind it. Think about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm most interested in the the Roswell incident, probably followed closely by the JFK assassination.What about you? These two interest me the most. I believe that the government knows all about alien life, not only that but has proof that aliens are responsible for human life on Earth. However, they have to cover that up because if the public were to find out, there would be mass panic and it would just undermind the whole In God We Trust. Some people would go insane without their faith. LBJ had JFK killed. I hope the truth is exposed someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
