Wow, just blown away by this new website from our beloved American Government. The website is "http://www.america.gov/conspiracy_theories.html". They present information "trying" to debunk all main conspiracies. But they provide NO evidence and FACTS on how they're debunking us, just some lame explanation.



Conspiracy theories exist in the realm of myth, where imaginations run wild, fears trump facts, and evidence is ignored. As a superpower, the United States is often cast as a villain in these dramas.


Topics of conspiracies are;

September 11




Dramatic, polarizing events often give rise to conspiracy theories, and the September 11 attacks were the most dramatic terrorist attacks in history. Nonsense about them abounds, especially in the popular video “Loose Change.” See “The Top September 11 Conspiracy Theories” for an overview. There was no “controlled demolition” of the World Trade Center towers. Instead, the unprecedented attack by hijacked airliners full of jet fuel destroyed support pillars, loosened fireproofing insulation, and ignited fires that destroyed the twin towers. The collapse of the north tower heavily damaged World Trade Center 7, igniting fires and causing its collapse. A hijacked plane, not a cruise missile, hit the Pentagon, as detailed in a photo gallery. Four thousand Jews did not miss work at the World Trade Center on September 11. And al-Qaida has admitted, many times, that it carried out the attacks.


Health



Health is a critically important issue for everyone. When new, life-threatening diseases emerge, such as AIDS, the H1N1 flu, and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), people are alarmed and can seize on conspiracy theories to explain their sudden appearance.

Former Russian Prime Minister Yevgeni Primakov has admitted the Soviet KGB concocted the false story that the AIDS virus was created in a U.S. military laboratory. Scientists now believe that AIDS most likely spread to humans from a West African chimpanzee in about 1930, long before genetic engineering existed.

When new, immune-suppression drugs made life-saving organ transplants much more feasible in the 1980s, false organ theft rumors began to appear, reflecting deep-seated fears about body integrity. Illegal organ transplants for payment do occur, however, and coercion can happen in this black market.


Military




As a powerful force in society, the military is naturally feared, and fear plays a major role in conspiracy theories. Uranium evokes very powerful fears. It is associated with atomic weapons, mass annihilation, radiation sickness, cancer and birth defects. Depleted uranium evokes these same fears, despite the fact that it has been depleted of much of its radioactivity. Fear-based associations can be more powerful than logic and facts. Compare how you feel about tungsten to how you feel about depleted uranium. Both are heavy metals, but "depleted uranium" might sound scarier to you. North Korea has waged a nearly-60-year disinformation campaign to try to convince the world that the United States used biological weapons during the Korean War. Such claims are false. Biological weapons evoke the nightmare fear of uncontrolled, deadly mass epidemics. The United States eliminated all of its biological weapons in the early 1970s. Those who falsely claim otherwise rely on the extraordinary power of this fear to overwhelm facts.


Outer Space




Outer space is the realm of the unimaginable. An encounter with intelligent alien life would be the most extraordinary moment in human history, which is precisely why it would be absolutely impossible to keep such an encounter secret if it were to occur. As space travel began to become a real possibility in the 20th century, aliens in “flying saucers“ became a focus of fears and anxiety, replacing earthbound spirits. We project onto imaginary aliens some of our deepest fears — that we could be victimized, enslaved or exterminated by a technologically superior civilization. Typically conceived as highly intelligent, imaginary aliens represent the ultimate unknowable, feared “other.” In addition to conspiracy theories about aliens, other conspiracy theories surround real space exploration. The first heavier-than-air craft flew in 1903; only 66 years later, men landed on the moon. This rapid technological progress can be difficult to comprehend, which may make it easier for some people to mistakenly believe the moon landing was a hoax.


Economic




Economic conspiracy theories are often based on the false, but popular, idea that powerful individuals are motivated overwhelmingly by their desire for wealth, rather than the wide variety of human motivations we all experience. (This one-dimensional, cartoonish view of human nature is at the heart of Marxist ideology, which once held hundreds of millions under its sway.) One fantasy, reflecting this simplistic, unimaginative way of interpreting human events, falsely claims that U.S. national security agencies employ “economic hit men” to entrap countries with huge amounts of debt. Within the United States, those who fear international influences may believe false stories that, with Canada and Mexico, the United States is replacing the dollar with a new “Amero” currency, patterned after the Euro, or that the United States is sacrificing its sovereignty to an imaginary “North American Union.”


U.S. Domestic




Perhaps more conspiracy theories surround Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated President John Kennedy in 1963, than anyone in American history. The Soviet KGB, Cuba, the mafia, the CIA, and others have been blamed for killing Kennedy, but all evidence indicates that Oswald acted alone. Today, some conspiracy theorists falsely claim President Obama was not born in the United States, making him ineligible to be president. However, there is no doubt that he was born in Hawaii. The so-called “Franklin Prophecy,” which continues to appear in various countries, is an anti-Jewish forgery that first appeared in the United States in 1934. It falsely claims that American founding father Benjamin Franklin warned against Jewish influence in America and proposed that Jews be expelled from the United States.


U.S. and Islam




The false notion that the United States is engaged in a “war on Islam” has all the elements of a classic conspiracy theory: exaggerated, irrational fears; no evidence for the charges; and yet widespread belief they are true. As President Obama said, “The United States is not, and will never be, at war with Islam.” He noted that “America and Islam … share common principles — principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.” Another false charge is that the United States has created an American Quran. A third is that a grandfather or ancestor of President George Bush wrote a book harshly critical of Mohammed.


Latin America




There are a number of false conspiracy theories about U.S. actions or intentions in Latin America. One totally untrue claim is that the United States plans to establish a military base in Paraguay. Another, a forgery with many misspellings (apparently crafted by a Portuguese speaker), falsely claims the United States and the United Nations have assumed control of the Amazon rainforest in order to safeguard its treasures for all mankind. A third false charge is that the United States is planning to invade Venezuela in an operation called “Plan Balboa.” Finally, the so-called “Cuban Five“ are agents and officers of Cuba’s foreign intelligence service convicted of committing crimes in the United States as part of a Cuban intelligence spy group, not victims of American injustice as Cuban propaganda claims.

Others




After the December 2004 South Asian tsunami, a conspiracy theory arose that the United States allegedly had “foreknowledge” of the tsunami, but withheld it from South Asian countries while warning the U.S. base at Diego Garcia. Others falsely claimed the tsunami was caused by underground nuclear tests. Perhaps the world’s most famous, widely believed forgery is the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” a more-than-100-year-old document that purported to detail how the Jews allegedly planned to take over the world. Articles in The Times of London in 1921 definitively showed the “Protocols” to be a fake, with large sections copied from a book published in Geneva in 1864, Dialogues in Hell between Machiavelli and Montesquieu by Maurice Joly. See this overview on how to identify conspiracy theories, urban legends and misinformation.


My Conspiracy friends... you are NOW officially threating the US Government with your theories (majority being FACTS). As a response to your challenge US Government now is taking a stand and attempting to attack you by call YOU the MIS INFORMANT. This is your typical psychological warfare tactic.

When you present MORE believable facts then the other party and they are "speechless" and can NO longer argue fact vs fact, they turn the table on you. They use their ONLY tool against us (last measure) use MSM and their image to manipulate the sheeples, not to cross over and "question" the authority, by doing so they will be labeled "Misinformants". They are trying to turn the table on US, since they can't win an arguments with FACTS being presented from us.

By them investing time/money and resources to try to debunk us, is just MORE evidence on how they're becoming aware on the movement of the awaking we have had already, and are now afraid of loosing control over the mass. The more people waking up with the "reality" of what "really" is going on, the more they loose power (control). So now we're officially being attacked, through a one way channel... Government of U.S.

Job well done my friends... keep on questioning the world around you... NEVER accept things via face value and what you're told. This is just to PROVE that we're a threat to the so called "Elites", they will use any means to try to win the mass... but it is too late... they're on a path of loosing war with humanity... we shall prevail!

Do as you will, we live in a world of illusion... full of contradiction.

Not surprising. Like everything else we do that Obama doesn't like, instead of addressing the root cause he takes off his big boy pants and whines about it like a little girl... no offense to any little girls that read this.

You know you hit a nerve when the government has to put up a web page to answer the Conspiracy Theories!

I also note that they did not say anything about flying saucers at area 51.

Here we go... further fuel conspiracies by blatantly denying them is the first step to the obvious fact that the Government is a conspiracy in and of itself.

Lies, propaganda and more lies = that website.

In NON of the topics above do they present "FACTS" nor try to debunk OUR facts, they simply give some lame explanation that summarizes the overall concept in the lamest term so the typical sheeple simply accepts it, since they don't have to "research", "Think" and "question".

The way the explanations are written are very interesting, they use the word "Fear" over and over again ... saying WE are in fear and so we come up with some "Fantasy" explanation for things so we can live with ourselves.

What's funny is many people have NOTHING but LOVE for their country and/or humanity and they were driven to so called "Conspiracy" to find ANSWERS since the box they created for us to live in has so many flaws and entrancement. For example, majority of people believing in UFO/Aliens, would WELCOME the idea of other worldly visitations and are saddened that it isn't public knowledge, so if anything we ARE the brave ones, doing the hard thing, stand up against the mass and question it's existence~! Who's the brave one, the one that stands out and risks it all for sake of understanding... or the one that hides behind the system and has no mind of his/her own?

The other method they're trying to debunk us is to continue on refereeing to "common sense" ... this is a tactic used to TELL you to accept what they tell you! otherwise you are NOT using your common scene and so you are delusional ... we all know what happens to delusional people.... so just listen to us, we already did the research for you and in one paragraph gonna simply explain to you how it is... just use your common sense and accept what we tell you!

Very interesting psychological tactics, to make US the crazy, scared, delusional, confused people.... and THEY the calm, collective, common sense people! .... RIGHT!

What's GOOD is that this is a fantastic way to get the half sleep sheeples to start researching and questing these topics and are also advertising for ATS
The other good thing is that this is ANOTHER evidence that WE are ON THE RIGHT TRACK!

If we are so crazy and delusional why spent so much resources at high level to try to "debunk" crazy people... that's just... crazy!

Bad news is that this government just proved that there will be NO disclosure coming ANYTIME soon... more secrecy, more behind the scene manipulate, and more lies....

However the wheels are in motion.... keep going

I love the slogan at the top of the page.

America.gov - Engaging the world.


Lol. So the US government has an official ministry of truth website now. Laughable.

I have a feeling that every single one of the conspiracies on that site are true, otherwise why would the government be trying to debunk them?

And the anthrax that was at Fort Detrick MD (and other facilities) after 9/11 (bruce ivins) was NOT a biological weapon?

Pretty thin stuff. Transparent even (says snagglepuss)

Also note few more interesting things about the site...

- The Conspiracy site is under...

Home> International Relations> Peace & Security

meaning that WE the Conspirators are in the category of ANTI-Peace and security problem for the country. So in the future if you're labeled a Conspiracy nut you are dangerous to your country and "LEGAL" actions may be taken against you... for questioning the government!

- Also there is a survery that pops up, I saw few questions on it the first time, but they just remvoed it and now there are NO questions... I was interested in seeing what type of info. are they fishing from the viewers.. keep in mind it's very easy to know WHO writes WHAT... so be CAUTIOUS.

- Lastly, I just noticed a link provided by "zzombie" has just been removed and also the survey... so this site is being watched LIVE NOW

“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”- Mahatma Gandhi
...
Glad I'm going to be a winner someday.
I notice they didn't address the military exercises conducted on September 11th, or the fact that the intelligence agencies run drugs worldwide, or CIA/NSA mind control tests and programs, or the international power struggles between small groups of men seeking wealth and control, or the Rothschild banking cartel, or the fact that the early intelligence agencies in the U.S. and more established MI5 and 'defenders of the faith' (catholic church, jesuits) helped smuggle the nazi intelligence leaders and scientists out before the USSR could get them... etc.
This is typical, they try to turn it into a debate about psychology (the father of psychology was a known coke addict-go figure) instead of EVIDENCE.

Taken from their homepage:
*Conspiracy theories exist in the realm of myth, where imaginations run wild, fears trump facts, and evidence is ignored. As a superpower, the United States is often cast as a villain in these dramas*

The United States, sometimes ignores facts also, and they are the villian in some cases. There is no ignoring the bully they play on the world stage.

Of course the bully doesnt think he is a bully.

Isnt it a running joke that Politicians lie? Theories are just that, Theories. Some are based in fact, others are not. BUT for U.S. to dismiss all, is where they look like they are hiding something. Question is, which one is it?



ps. The economic situation, The Koreas yelling at each other again, and who can forget our favorite, The Middle East.

Its actually a little entertaining watching all this play out. And it just keeps getting worse and worse, and no one seems to notice or give a sh*t about anything outside their constructed little lives. Exceot here.
(I just watched V for Vendetta again last night, who here is going to pay for all the masks?? lol)
