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]…

Theories are an underlying fact of certain observed phenomena that has been approved to some degree. The alien conspiracy theory blames outside people and outside influences on organized crime. The alien conspiracy supposes to be a fact that organized crime mafia gained attention during the 1860s in Sicily and that the Sicilians are responsible for the organized crime (Lyman, 2007).…
Difonzo starts by first defining the term rumor. According to Difonzo, “Rumors are unverified information statements that circulate about topics that people perceive as important; arise in situations of ambiguity, threat, or potential threat; and are used by people attempting to make sense or to manage risk.” One example of a rumor that he used is the bombing allegations after September 11, 2001. One rumor after that bombing was that a hijacked plane was headed for the Sears Tower in Chicago. The rumor was not true. This type of rumor is called human sense making. “The rumor was how people…
Humans have always been intrigued by secrets. From the earliest times we've tried to find conspiracies, sometimes even where none exist. There are thousands of conspiracy theories, ranging from the esoteric and the paranormal to regular assassinations and wars. And cinema too has had its fair share, some of which are definitely worth looking into. Here are the ones that have conspired to get into the top 10 list.…
UFO sightings in the 50’s and 60’s were quickly shut down by the government, but many chose to continue believing. People starting talking about little green men who were abducting people. Seeing black spots in the sky turned into “UFO sightings”. Most of the paranoia surrounding the mysteriousness of Area 51 comes from the fact that there are many “other-worldly” lights emanating from the skies above Area 51. People claim the lights are from alien spacecraft and the activities of extraterrestrials. Another conspiracy theory says that Area 51 is the base where live and dead aliens that have crashed down to Earth are examined. Another says Area 51 is used to make human-alien hybrids using specimen taken from crashed spacecraft. Reverse engineering of extraterrestrials vehicles is another theory. Most of the conspiracy theories surrounding Area 51 involves aliens and other life forms that nobody besides the government has seen; but sometimes these life forms squeeze through the cracks in the walls of the government and are witnessed by citizens of the…
What if everything one was supposed to believe was wrong? What if the people who are supposed to protect citizens from danger, do not? What if 9/11, the most tragic day in American history, was caused by the people we are supposed to respect and we are supposed and to believe, our government? Could our government have masterminded this horrific crime? Actually, I believe they did. In August 1997, on the front cover of FEMA’s, The Federal Emergency Management Agency, Emergency Response to Terrorism Manual it shows the World Trade Center towers in the cross hairs, sights used for aiming a gun or missile for accuracy, and then again in June 2000, the Department of Justice released a world terrorism handbook featuring the twin towers also in the cross hairs on the front cover (Loose Change 2nd Edition). I believe that the government has had this planned or contemplated this action since August of 1997.…
Did Adolph Hitler really commit suicide on April 30, 1945? Hitler is believed to have poisoned and shot himself along with his newlywed wife, Eva Braun, on April 30, 1945 while in an underground bunker in Berlin. Then, Hitler and his wife’s body were burned outside the bunker. However, many questioned whether this really happened so they have conspiracies on Hitler’s death. Three main conspiracies that really challenge Hitler’s suicide are that the skull found in the bunker did not belong to him, no shots were heard by bystanders in the bunker, and he had an imposter kill himself. So Hitler’s death may have been a hoax due to the evidence from several sources, showing that Hitler may have never committed suicide in that bunker and he had escaped from Germany.…

September 11, 2001 is a time in U.S. history that everyone will remember, it holds a special place in almost every American’s heart, as well as the families in other countries who lost a loved one that day. Several groups of people within our own country and abroad believe that knowledge of this attack was held prior to the actual event. The U.S. government made the citizens believe that two airplanes crashed into the Twin Towers in New York City, and one airplane into the Pentagon. Different conspiracy theories have developed on the internet, and several websites claim to have legitimate cases regarding the validity of the “true” story. The true story, however, is one of pain and suffering that the citizens of America were put through.…

The first way to look at it is through the assumption that there were, with 96.3% certainty, two shooters, one in the Texas School Book Depository, and a second in a curbside sewer on Elm Street, not on the grassy knoll. This fact in itself is a conspiracy theory. The second is the involvement of Mafia bosses and the CIA. It is said that President Kennedy ordered a meeting between him, the CIA, a group of Cuban exiles and various Mafia bosses to…
Conspiracy theories are naturally created because of doubt. Conspiracy theories resemble Russian nesting dolls. The event or phenomenon is just like the innermost nesting doll, once people start questioning the theory the doll gets bigger and bigger with other possible conspiracies. Making it harder for people to believe the story the media tells first. Most people naturally believe conspiracy theories because it is easier to believe that people are corrupt than to believe things just happen without reason. People are right to question events that happen, but to what extent? Sometimes terrible incidents happen and no one is to blame, but people…
Conspiracy theories have been around for many years. The earliest one that I can find in politics was after the Tea Act of 1773. Thomas Jefferson stated that King George was sending armies to kill and oppress the American people. I believe this helped him to gain support in seceding from Great Britain. The second, also involving Jefferson, but was meant to keep him from being elected as president. Jefferson’s opposition claimed that he was part of a secret society, called the Illuminati, and that he was going to destroy the country with terror and tyranny. They also claimed that he was anti-religion. Another conspiracy was when a group, called the Freemasons or Masons, was thought to be behind Aaron Burr wanting to start an independent…
