Is anybody a conspiracy theorist?

I think using the term "conspiracy theorist" creates a instand discredit to an idea or thought. I think if you are seeking answers to this question do some research on the FREE MASONS and many of the other SECRET SOCIETIES like the ILLUMINATI or SKULL & BONES or BILDERBURG or The Trilateral Commission. just to name a few. There is an entire history or intelligent control of the population. The history channel also aired a very good show focused soley on secret societies, if you can find a copy of that show some where you will have found a great resource.

None.\n\nDo a search on "911 Conspiracy" and you will get your answers.

Yes, I do.  It's very sobering to become a sceptical person about our government and to realize that they would knowingly condone this heinous act of murder.\nI once was one who believed that Al-Qaeda was soley behind 9/11.  Then about 2 months ago my wife brought home a DVD that reexamined all the evidence about how the WTC buildings collapsed, and it also showed a lot about the Pentagon attack.  Yes, I once was a person who thought that all these "conspiracy theorists" were just a bunch of nut cakes.  But, again, the physical evidence about what happened is quite shocking. \nThe web page below contains a lot of technical articles.  It is also easy to find other web sites that present a lot of information.  If you go to an "official" web site about 9/11, it's interesting to see how they side-step the hard questions that are being presented and cannot be sufficiently answered by jets simply crashing into buildings.\nSo, what does all of this mean?  We, the American public, have been duped.  But, what does that really change?  Has any of our personal lives really changed all that much?  How much of a difference does it personally make to us if it was Al-Qaeda or our own government that murdered innocent American lives?\nAnd so, we go on.  We live each day.  I ask myself what can I possibly do to get the truth out?  Being on the other side, one of the "conspiracy" nuts, is hard .. it's hard because no one wants to believe you.

Bilderberg: The ultimate conspiracy theory\n \nBy Jonathan Duffy \nBBC News Online Magazine  \n\n\nThe Bilderberg group, an elite coterie of Western thinkers and power-brokers, has been accused of fixing the fate of the world behind closed doors. As the organisation marks its 50th anniversary, rumours are more rife than ever. \nGiven its reputation as perhaps the most powerful organisation in the world, the Bilderberg group doesn't go a bundle on its switchboard operations. \n\nTelephone inquiries are met with an impersonal female voice - the Dutch equivalent of the BT Callminder woman - reciting back the number and inviting callers to "leave a message after the tone". \n\nAnyone who accidentally dialled the number would probably think they had stumbled on just another residential answer machine. \n\n \nLeiden in Holland, the inauspicious base of the Bilderberg group \nBut behind this ultra-modest façade lies one of the most controversial and hotly-debated alliances of our times. \n\nOn Thursday the Bilderberg group marks its 50th anniversary with the start of its yearly meeting. \n\nFor four days some of the West's chief political movers, business leaders, bankers, industrialists and strategic thinkers will hunker down in a five-star hotel in northern Italy to talk about global issues. \n\nWhat sets Bilderberg apart from other high-powered get-togethers, such as the annual World Economic Forum (WEF), is its mystique. \n\nNot a word of what is said at Bilderberg meetings can be breathed outside. No reporters are invited in and while confidential minutes of meetings are taken, names are not noted. \n\nThe shadowy aura extends further - the anonymous answerphone message, for example; the fact that conference venues are kept secret. The group, which includes luminaries such as Henry Kissinger and former UK chancellor Kenneth Clarke, does not even have a website. \n\n DISCREET AND ELITE \nThis year Bilderberg has announced a list of attendees \nThey include BP chief John Browne, US Senator John Edwards, World Bank president James Wolfensohn and Mrs Bill Gates  \n\nIn the void created by such aloofness, an extraordinary conspiracy theory has grown up around the group that alleges the fate of the world is largely decided by Bilderberg. \n\nIn Yugoslavia, leading Serbs have blamed Bilderberg for triggering the war which led to the downfall of Slobodan Milosevic. The Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, the London nail-bomber David Copeland and Osama Bin Laden are all said to have bought into the theory that Bilderberg pulls the strings with which national governments dance. \n\nAnd while hardline right-wingers and libertarians accuse Bilderberg of being a liberal Zionist plot, leftists such as activist Tony Gosling are equally critical. \n\nA former journalist, Mr Gosling runs a campaign against the group from his home in Bristol, UK. \n\n"My main problem is the secrecy. When so many people with so much power get together in one place I think we are owed an explanation of what is going on. \n\n \nTimothy McVeigh was among those who believed the conspiracy theory \nMr Gosling seizes on a quote from Will Hutton, the British economist and a former Bilderberg delegate, who likened it to the annual WEF gathering where "the consensus established is the backdrop against which policy is made worldwide". \n\n"One of the first places I heard about the determination of US forces to attack Iraq was from leaks that came out of the 2002 Bilderberg meeting," says Mr Gosling. \n\nBut "privacy, rather than secrecy", is key to such a meeting says Financial Times journalist Martin Wolf, who has been invited several times in a non-reporting role. \n\n"The idea that such meetings cannot be held in private is fundamentally totalitarian," he says. "It's not an executive body; no decisions are taken there." \n\nAs an up-and-coming statesmen in the 1950s, Denis Healey, who went on

Sparking an interest to your question, I am obliged to post what I believe is conspiracy at its best.\n\n9-11, I am going to say this right now, you may be offended by my point of view.\n\nWith reports going around, I cannot guarantee what I say is true or just rumors floating about the news and amongst the people.\n\nI've seen close up footage of the second plane colliding with the second tower of the Towers. Before the plane collides with the building, there is an explosion that erupts from the building engulfing the nose of the plane; yet the plane had not collided with the building yet. To me it seemed a little like Hollywood effects. When the third plane crashed into the Pentagon, I find it a little odd that the area the plane crashed into was completely deserted because they were "remodeling". While our nation was in a shock of awe from the "attacks", Bush was reading to kindergartners, with an upside down book.\n\nNearly hours after the "terrorist" attacks, the FBI released photos and full names of the hi-jackers. To top it all off, there was also surveillance footage of the hi-jackers in the airports. This kind of information could not be obtained and compiled to be released to the press within hours.\n\nCurrently, Bush is having an extremely hard time convincing half of America that Hussein had anything to do with the "terrorist" attacks. Bush's reason for invading Iraq is the fact that Hussein has Weapons of Mass Destruction(WMD's). While the search for these WMD's failed several times for Bush, he was becoming desperate. There were hidden reports that Bush was attempting to ship our own Nuclear Weapons to Iraq to use them as evidence against Hussein; but the weapons he was trying to ship weren't old enough to support his invasion propaganda. The only good thing Clinton did while he was in office was to dispose of all the Nuclear Weapons made in the earlier years.\n\nI've added a specific link below regarding the 9-11 conspiracy theory, I just wanted to put my two cents in.\n\nOn an unrelated note, there have also been whispers that everything we do will be recorded on video and audio tape, without our consent, in the up coming years.

A plane hit the Pentagon.  They have proof.  Are you one of those idiots who thinks everything is a conspiracy or are you just a kook!!

No. I find their "concrete entities such as man and society" to be perhaps less concrete than the speculations they mention. Though I am sure there is a little bit of empiricist in any rational person.

Maybe they did...maybe they didn't...\nWhat can you do about it? Write a book on conspiracy!

I've seen several different "conspiracy theory" vidoes and I did some poking around on the Web to see what I could find. Here's a very interesting article you should check out:\n\nhttp://www.popularmechanics.com/science/defense/1227842.html?page=1

No one said that it is a conspiracy.........\n\nHuman error is human error.

The second edition is very good.  So, I read all of the above and I have way too much in my head to try and type it all here.  All I will say is I have no "conspiracy theory."  I have questions...many, many questions.  "Loose Change" does just the same thing, asks questions.  I'm going to a conference put on by Alex Jones next month in Los Angeles and the young guys that made "Loose Change" will be there, as well.  It should be interesting.\nThe Popular Mechanics article is bunk.  http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=1006051612475&pa=FZB6NXXtFWMW0cLWwu4T8Vz6aiAvUt4M43cHcOeaifCbrDhBhhA- (My rebuttle.)

"Conspiracy theory" is simply a great catch-all phrase. And by definition a good conspiracy is one that cannot be proven.\nI mean, it's entirely possible that politicians have been bribed, cabals have been formed, secret treaties and arrangements have been made.\nHowever, the problem with pulling out the conspiracy theory card, is that there is a significant contingent of people that have gone to that well far too often; the nut cases. The folks that think everything's a conspiracy, like the Vietnam War was fought because of a bet Aristotle Onasis lost to Howard Hughes. These folks cry conspiracy so often that when and if it does actually happen, no one's listening.

I watched the video a few of months ago.  After a couple of years of some research I believe the majority of our politicians are completely in the dark as is most of the nation.  \n\nI do, however, believe there is an international conglomerate that uses many of the world governments and their citizens as pawns to establish a New World Order.  Some call them the Elite European Bankers or the Illuminati.  They are real and obviously do exist.\n\nAs for many of the "terorist" acts that have occured in the past, including Sept 11 and the Muir Building in OK City, the evidence is almost overwhelmingly blatant that what really happened is not what the government and the media want us to believe.  \n\nPeople say I'm crazy.  Maybe I am.  Maybe I'm not.

I have this video.  It is thought provoking.  Check out the one he (Alex Jones) put out about the Bohemian Grove.  That, too, is a secret sect that many of our presidents have belonged to as well as leaders from all over the world.  As for the Illuminati being a group of "intellectuals," that was said in The DaVinci Code and should not be taken as fact.  It was a wonderful web that Dan Brown weaved.  (I must say, though, I couldn't put that book down, very entertaining.)

It is stupid to believe there are NO conspiracies.\n\nOkay so there has never been a single conspiracy? That is the whole premise of my show.

This link is interesting which says that there is no conspiracy!!\n\nhttp://www.netalive.org/topics/36595

The "OBL and the 7 dwarfs" theory is probably the least plausible conspiracy case for the 9/11 attacks.  Unfortunately, it is the only one that has been investigated in "back-assward fashion".\n\nNormally, in a real investigation, you look at motive, opportunity, and resources.  You investigate and gather the facts on those things, and then you build a case that fits the facts.  You don't start with an instant conclusion and then work backwards to change or cherry-pick facts to fit your conclusion.  In science they call this "pathological science", where a mad scientist comes up with a wierd theory and then proves it with narrow examples...and facts contradicting this theory are summarily tossed out, changed outright, or ridiculed.  In law, this kind of theorizing leads to "kangaroo courts", where the "burden of proof" is on the defendent and not the prosecution.\n\nThe real video evidence, science, 1st-hand witness statements, and paper-trails all contradict the official conspiracy theory.  Will we ever get a confession of those that pulled the strings?  Of course not, but it is enough for Americans to wake up, see the truth, and those that did perpetrate the attacks won't be able to pull off another one.
