Conspiracy Theory
The media always gives you the first piece of information they can get ahold of, but what about all the other information that nobody talks about? What about all the questions that are never asked? The media holds back so much information from us that could change the view of things from so many people. New conspiracies are everywhere that we go. Thousands of theories are out there and have been brought up, but never really thought of in a deeper way. A conspiracy theory has many definitions and are looked at in many ways.

A conspiracy theory is something that is believed to be true. It goes along with a specific event or activity. Conspiracy theories usually start when facts of a person, place, or thing fail to make sense and people

    9-11 Conspiracy Theories Of 9/11

    There are many 9/11 Conspiracy Theories. Sophists trust that the world trade center buildings were decimated by boms, phone calls from the planes were concocted and that President George W. Bush, behind closed doors, profited from the attacks. Abounding numbers of people hypothesize that the Twin Towers were blown down with explosives in selected locations. Some spectators racall hearing explosions wihtin the building as they attempted to escape.…

    Conspiracy Theories Of The 9/11 Attacks

    Another one is “Why did the twin towers collapse so quickly, within their own footprint, after fires on a few floors that lasted only an hour or two?” Conspiracy theorists say the twin towers were destroyed by controlled demolitions. Also, conspiracy theorists also ask the question “How could an amateur pilot fly a commercial plane in a complicated maneuver into the headquarters of the world’s most powerful military (referring to the military), 78 minutes after the 1st report of a possible hijack, and leave no trace behind?” At first the conspiracy theorists thought that it was a missile that went into the pentagon rather than a plane, now they think that the Pentagon conducted the attack themselves to create some type of distraction. Another interesting theory, asks the question “Why was the crash site at Shanksville PA, so small and why was the aircraft debris not visible?”…

    9/11 Conspiracy Theorists

    Conspiracy theorists have been around for ages: "The holocaust never happened", "Aliens made crop circles", "JFK was killed by the CIA", "Aliens kidnapped Elvis", etc. In my research, I first went to Google in attempt to see how "big" the 9/11 conspiracy theory was and the results were astounding. A search of "9/11 conspiracy theory" resulted in almost 250,000 returns. In seeing such a massive return, many like me might wonder why the obvious has to be proven. For example, even though hundreds of firsthand statements were given of people seeing a plane crash into the Pentagon, conspiracy theorists still state that a missile made the hole. This same plane was hauled away, again seen by citizens. And what about the bodies that were removed from the wreckage site, later identified as those were on the plane? The plane…

This video comes down to the fact that maybe our government is hiding the real truth behind this with cover-ups and scams to physiologically attack the American people to gain support for a war.…

    Berenstain Bear Conspiracy Theory

    Do you remember the Berenstain Bears being the Berenstein Bears? Or think that the United States really wasn’t the first country to step on the moon? The previous questions connect to a few out of thousands of conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories are the belief that a person or organization secretly influenced or caused an event. For example, some people believe that 9/11 terrorist attacks were actually planned and carried out by the government, who would blame ISIS and give the government a reason to kill Osama Bin Laden. Conspiracy theorists don’t always know if their theory is true, but they do always think that an event’s “official story” is a cover-up. Conspiracy theory popularity has also gained quite a bit; especially theories like…

    9/11 - the Conspiracy

    The day of September 11th, 2001 the world witnessed with disbelief as the World Trade Center in New York City came crashing down. The shock the attacks generated and the some 3,000 or more people it killed made it one of the brutal attacks in history. One may only wonder how such a grand scaled attack could be carried through. Although controversial, evidence suggests that the September 11th attacks in 2001 were an inside job and the statements of the Bush administration following them were a fabricated truth that many people believed. Unfortunately the tragic event has scarred the lives of many people globally and changed the course of the near future.[1]…

    Area 51 Conspiracy Theory

    I am writing to you in regard to the conspiracy theories surrounding Area 51, and the lack of evidence to support these conspiracies. The conspiracy theories are centered on the belief that there is extraterrestrial life within Area 51. People, who live around the area or were traveling have claim they saw unidentified flying objects (UFOs) in the airspace above Area 51, especially during the 1950s and 1960s. The theory that UFOs and extraterrestrial life are located within Area 51 has been strengthen, due to the testimony from a former private contractor who had worked at the military facility in Area 51. The worker, Robert Lazar claimed that he worked on alien technology in Area 51, and has alleged that the government has had interactions…

    9/11 Conspiracy

    5. In this course I have assigned a conspiracy debunking book on widespread conspiracy allegations concerning the events of 9/11/01. That book, compiled by the journal POPULAR MECHANICS: Debunking 9/11 Myths: Why Conspiracy Theories Can’t Stand Up, attempts to silence the avalanche of suspicion triggered by attacks that day. You can obtain the essence of those suspicions by consulting the many "Truther" sites on the Web. To a general reader, explain what we ought to think about 9/11 in the wake of this confrontation over what actually happened on that fateful day and why. Explain why you reached this conclusion. Address this question: How successful can the most thorough debunking be in the wake of allegations of the sort made by the Truther movement? I own several books and CD's making the case for conspiracy for your use if you wish to consult one or more of them. Of course, the internet is full of that material. You might want to entitle your essay, “Can conspiracy doubts ever be put to rest?”.…

    The Great Seattle Windshield Epidemic Analysis

    We can’t know about everything, and establish a dependence on other sources to feed us necessary information. What happens with secondary sources is that they’re open to interpretation; because we’re observing the story through someone else’s perspective. Like the citizens of Seattle, we don’t expect the media to lie to us; we assume they have an objective stance on issues. Conspiracy theories are dependent on the circulation of information, and asking questions necessary question. Seattle’s Windshield Epidemic parallels the allegory of the cave described by Plato. We see what is illuminated onto the walls, and assume it as reality. The puppet masters exist as the Media, depicting information what we want to see. The epidemic shows that while trapped in the cave we’re exposed to the perspective being fed to us. It isn’t till researchers did a conclusive study to examine the windshields, that they learned that it was all fear-mongering being perpetuated by the media. There was no epidemic, instead it was a false reality everyone believed in. The media served to quantify the issue, amidst impending threats on the sovereign state. Although the epidemic can help assist us in understanding the modus operandi, it shows conspiracy theories can stem from…

    911 Theories

    Another conspiracy deals with Larry Silverstein. Silverstein (the new leaseholder for the WTC) had been going to the Twin Towers "Windows on the World" restaurant (there were no survivors on this level) to dine and meet with his new tenants, he had been doing this straight since July 26 2001. But on 9/11 he didn't go because he claimed his wife made a dermatologist appointment for him. Many truthers also point out that in the interview which he is asked where he was on 9/11 he appears to be showing signs of lying. This raised suspicion in many Americans.…

    9/11 Conspiracy Theory

    Everyone probably has different opinions about the deadly attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001 (9/11 attacks). Some may believe conspiracy theories like the United States Government has full responsibility of this date. However, no matter what conspiracy theory someone may believe everyone should believe that this terrible day has done some good things. This horrifically brutal attack against innocent citizens created a safer, more secure, thorough search of people's belongings before boarding an aircraft. All of the new precautions that are now taken are make airports much safer than ever before. If these safety measures had been put in place in the year of 2001, the attacks on September 11th would have not taken place.…

    A conspiracy theory is an explanatory proposition that accuses a person, group, or organization of having caused or covered up an event or phenomenon of great social, political, or economic impact. For example, the event of the Watergate scandal is a proven conspiracy theory that Richard Nixon and his aides were behind the cause and cover-up of the Watergate break-in.

    Conspiracy Theories

    Conspiracy theories are usually associated with some kind of political issue, whether it be about fiscal issues, trying to get laws passed, wars, and so on. When searching for information on conspiracy theories, I could see that they are usually associated with some kind of illness or just being crazy. For a conspiracy theory to be true, especially on a large scale, many people would need to be involved. I believe that’s one of the reasons that a lot of people don’t believe in them. The public cannot wrap its head around this kind of manipulation. Personally, I have no idea if they could be possible. There have been hundred of alleged conspiracy theories floating around. Some if the most popular include events like 9/11, The War on Terror, and I’ve even been exposed to some involving Sandy Hook. I think that conspiracy theories are so controversial and difficult to prove or disprove that they’re talked about frequently and questioned constantly.…
