conspiracy theories ...

Page 14:

Increasingly, whether the subject is September 11 or Oklahoma city, a common phrase appears:
"U.S. government agencies themselves orchestrated the bombing"
... as one writer put it.

"Conspiracy theories" is the label most often put on such talk - yet why would we not think it possible that our government might have contrived a "new Pearl Harbor" to facilitate invading yet another sovereign nation (Iraq), or for purposes yet unknown to us ?

Disgusting, and even painful, as it is for us as Americans to consider such possibilities, those who dig deep into details surrounding two of the darkest American days in recent history are coming to chilling conclusions.

Frankly, I am not sure any one of us who is learning what has actually happened in the United States during the last 20 years can convince an average American that anything is other that it should be. Too many folks are in blinders, doing their best to make it through work days to keep the homefire burning; too many in denial regardless.

The more I learn, the more I am determined to learn about the whole stinking mess ... but for you and other readers and thinkers, I realize that most likely the only way you will really come to see how deep the deception has gone is to start reading for yourself, everything you can find regarding the Oklahoma City Bombing and the attack on the WTC.

When I see details in (or omitted from) "official investigation" reports, compared with the wealth of data provided by eyewitnesses to the same events, I begin to wonder at the state of my own mind. I think anyone does. Millions of taxpayer dollars are spent on official investigations, which produce an inbred package of partial and distorted truth, designed to fit an agenda few even in government are sure of.

Could it be no more than intellectual exercise employing such techniques as Counterfactual Thinking which drives such blatant usurpation of oath of office? If some people are dispositionally more likely to wonder about what might have been, then perhaps some are more likely to not only wonder about what will be, but obsess toward making a future they see as "best" so that current reality (such as oath of office) becomes wholly insignificant to them. "Rewriting the future" as easy as rewriting the past ... ?

Conspiracy theories do not thrive in the open. When 911 Commission members consciously excluded from their final report facts they were urged by so many to include, facts which some members knew personally to be true for having been themselves privy to the those facts even prior to the very events they were given to investigate, then the public was left to ask why the "facts" do not fit.

The public began to theorize, use their own expertise to solve the crime, form individual opinion based on personal training. The public began arguing among themselves the merits of many "theories" - distracted, as they are intended to be - part of that distraction being called to task for questioning the official version ... because all the while, the next event which is designed to keep the public off balance is being prepared. Anyone who would sound an alarm is ignored.
