David Kelly didn't commit suicide - he was killed on Blair's orders. My only worry is that Norman Baker agrees with me !

Absolutely. I think the point I am trying to make is the more you look the more you find but it doesn't make what you find true.

In 1978 the world was convinced that 4 shots were fired that day...now it's widely accepted 3 were fired...exactly the number the original commission said. We have gone full circle in 50 years arriving back at the beginning. If you have spoken to a conspiracy theorist in the early 90's they would have spoken at length about acoustics indicating 4 shots thus a second shooter which means LHO wasn't allone. Now it's widely agreed it was three, all three came from the rifle found in the book building and poor old lee was just a screwed up kid.

Take the grand hotel bombing. Why does no one believe that was a Tory conspiracy? Isn't it a miracle that Thatcher wasn't killed but it was enough to shock the nation at a time when we needed to be distracted from the miners strikes and pour more resources against the IRA? Strange. Maybe McGee was a patsy of MI5? Why don't people believe that? Of the top of my head I have just come up with a CT theory that has some substance. That was easy and ita easy to say the WTC was a hoax or planned by the CIA and such like.

It took one man and a rifle to kill the president and it took 5 years of planning and some dedicated souls to kill thousands. But both were responsible not a dark an unidentified force.

Yep, now you mention the grand hotel bombing, it could quite easily be connected the way you have drawn it for me. By the way, I presume this was an example you put together rather than a conspiracy theory I missed ??

Just made it up but I am sure it might be on the internet somewhere as it seems too easy for someone to have missed!

I believe that Scott Dobbie and Ryan Harley are football double agents who were sent by Palace to curtail our last two play-off pushes. I mean who could claim to be a professional footballer and be that $hit.

This of course will be the only plausible and logical statement on this thread.

Who the feck is Scott dobbie?

I've been reading about 'conspiracy theories' over the past month (from objective balanced scholarly sources) and there are several things that are so demonstrably true from multiple perspectives that they can't possibly be considered 'theories'.

I'd happily tag the word FACT onto any of the following:

Lee Harvey Osward could not have fired the shot that killed John F Kennedy.
The US and UK governments knew that Iraq had no WMD when using a claim they had to justify an invasion.
Libya (as a whole, as well as those indicted) had nothing to do with Lockerbie.
The CIA has been involved in (amongst other things) drug running, funding terrorists and testing the mind control effects of LSD.

Iran did the Lockerbie bombing.
Lee Harvey Oswald could and did kill Kennedy.
The British government tried LSD on national servicemen at Porton Down.

The only conspiracy I think there is, is that alternative forms of energy have been developed and are ready to use instead of fossil fuel, but because of the wealth and power oil brings, will never see the light of day.... until a few months before the worlds oil reserves run out!!

I do believe some Governments have more compelling evidence to suggest we are not alone in the cosmos and that there are other forms of life that potentially exist beyond our solar system. Very easy not to disclose anything UFO related. And easy to see why they would keep it that way.

i have read a few pieces on this over the years,the consensus being if it was disclosed that we really are not alone, man made religions would be absolutely screwed,there would be an almighty shit storm of religious people going nuts that they have been wrong all along,cultures would collapse and governments fail.......therefore best to keep everyone in the dark until the human race is more "grown up"

Makes sense really.

Although i would like to add (grabs tin hat and runs for cover) that even is god himself (or herself) has not been disproved (it has really though as much as can be anyway) then the basis of most major religions has. What we are experiencing currently is the white knuckles of those with a vested interest desperately trying to disprove the science that has disproved the basis for their belief system and all its far reaching influence. At the end of this period of enlightenment today's major religions will be considered as mere relics or curiosity like the aboriginal dream time stories or the greek norse or roman gods.

Now if that isn't enough to set of a binfest I don't know what is. :O

It may look logical it may seem logical but it isn't!

Pentagon is a massive building, If they aimed at the center, then it would look like crap flying.

Having seen the damage and almost total lack of aircraft parts at the Pentagon site, I would say that at face value it does not look like a plane crash, however if it was a missile then what happened to the other aircraft?

Difficult to dispute the twin towers, being hit, and collapsing .

There was a BBC documentary that dealt with every single one of these 9/11 claims. Either they're in on it too (as the deluded will want to believe) or it's all crap. They showed a frame of CCTV in which you can see the Pentagon plane just as it hit.

Nerves, shock and grief can do funny things to a person. It would be interesting to get a psychologists take on this but I suspect that one theory maybe just that it is a distraught father preparing to face the worlds media.

So the guy is trying to keep his emotions in check and over-compensating initially. But it's too much when he tries to talk. Doesn't seem odd to me particularly. No different to someone trying to put on a brave face at a funeral when they're greeted by mourners.

No binfest here.

However please explain how you think the existence of god and the basis of most major religions has been disproved.

You can extend that to say that certainly in the 1970s the IRA was completely controlled by the British Establishment. There was a lot of political unrest in Britain in the 1970s, and then every so often there would be an IRA bomb (Guildford, Birmingham, etc) and the country would unite and condemn the IRA. It was all a little bit too convenient. Also it gave the Army a realistic testing ground (with live ammunition), and more importantly allowed the State to impose draconian legislation - all in the name of 'security' y'know.
