The Best Conspiracy Theories
The Best Conspiracy Theories (Lizard-People Are Running the World!)
By Lucas Graves
10.23.07
Photo: Gene Lee
Download a pdf of the magazine version.
Nasa Faked the Moon Landings
And Arthur C. Clarke wrote the script, at least in one version of the
story. Space skeptics point to holes in the Apollo archive (like
missing transcripts and blueprints) or oddities in the mission photos
(misplaced crosshairs, funny shadows). A third of respondents to a 1970
poll thought something was fishy about mankind's giant leap. Today, 94
percent accept the official version... Saps!
The US Government Was Behind 9/11
Or Jews. Or Jews in the US government. The documentary Loose Change
claimed to find major flaws in the official story — like the dearth of
plane debris at the site of the Pentagon blast and that jet fule alone
could never vaporize a whole 757. Judge for yourself: After Popular Mechanics debunked the theory, the magazine's editors faced off with proponents in a debate, available on YouTube.
Princess Diana Was Murdered
Rumors ran wild after Princess Diana's fatal 1997 car crash, and they
haven't stopped yet. Reigning theories: She faked her death to escape
the media's glare, or the royals snuffed her out (via MI6) to keep her
from marrying her Muslim boyfriend. For the latest scenarios, check out
www.alfayed.com, the Web site of her boyfriend's dad, Mohamed Al Fayed.
The Jews Run Hollywood and Wall Street
A forged 19th-century Russian manuscript called "The Protocols of the
Elders of Zion" (virtually required reading in Nazi Germany) purports
to lay out a Jewish plot to control media and finance, and thus the
world. Several studies have exposed the text as a hoax, but it's still
available in numerous languages and editions.
The Scientologists Run Hollywood
The long list of celebrities who have had Dianetics
on their nightstands fuels rumors that the Church of Scientology pulls
the strings in Tinseltown — vetting deals, arranging marriages, and
spying on stars. The much older theory is that Jews run Hollywood, and
the Scientologists have to settle for running Tom Cruise.
Paul Is Dead
Maybe you're amazed, but in 1969 major news outlets reported on rumors
of the cute Beatle's death and replacement by a look-alike. True
believers pointed to a series of clues buried in the Fab Four's songs
and album covers. Even for skeptics, McCartney's later solo career lent
credibility to the theory.
AIDS Is a Man-Made Disease
A number of scientists have argued that HIV was cooked up in a lab,
either for bioweapons research or in a genocidal plot to wipe out gays
and/or minorities. Who supposedly did the cooking? US Army scientists,
Russian scientists, or the CIA. Mainstream researchers point to
substantial evidence that HIV jumped species from African monkeys to
humans.
Church's Fried Chicken Sterilizes Black Men
Sociologists call this decades-old urban legend a cultural echo of the
very real syphilis study carried out on blacks in Tuskegee, Alabama. In
another version, KFC is the culprit — and secretly run by the KKK.
There's less controversy over whether the biscuits clog your arteries.
Lizard-People Run the World
If a science fiction-based religion isn't exotic enough, followers of
onetime BBC reporter David Icke believe that certain powerful people —
like George W. Bush and the British royals — actually belong to an
alien race of shape-shifting lizard-people. Icke claims Princess Diana
confirmed this to one of her close friends; other lizard theories
(there are several) point to reptilian themes in ancient mythology. And
let's not forget the '80s TV show V.
The Illuminati Run the World
The ur-conspiracy theory holds that the world's corporate and political
leaders are all members of an ancient cabal: Illuminati, Rosicrucians,
Freemasons — take your pick. It doesn't help that those secret
societies really existed (George Washington was a Mason). Newer
variations implicate the Trilateral Commission, the New World Order,
and Yale's Skull and Bones society. Comments Theories and Facts

As usual there is a mix of the ridiculous with the very probable in
order to make it all look ridiculous. Does this guy work for the

Historical examples...
by Hegelian
Govts have long used false-flag and/or state sponsored terror to
manipulate public opinion. Some govts have flat out gone to war just to
divert public disdain for domestic problems. Read history--Europe has
had a long history of pre-planned wars between countries to keep the
masses from revolt.
Control has been an isue ever-since men formed groups and
elected/elevated one particular leader over another.
1) Hitler burned the Reichstag and blamed it on another group to gain a
consensus againts them.
2) Rome was burned and the blame placed on Christians.
3) The Maine was sunk and blame placed on another gorup who didnt do
it.
4) Gulf of Tonkin, is now revealed to have been a false-flag op.
5) Now de-classified "Operation Northwoods" was a plan to cause a
self-inflicted wound (phony terror) and BLAME it on our enemy... look
it up...
If you understand the nature of man (as our founders did...thus the
importance of the separatin of powers built into the framework of our
govt) it is easy to realize that these events can and did happen.
But for this author to lump in some true exmples with Lizrd people and
other nonsense is a way to destroy credibility with
"guilt-by-association"---not a new tactic either.

The thing about this article is that it mixes the theories that have
a fair degree of evidential support with the clearly absurd thus by
associating things in one ridiculous lump the unscrupulous will eqaute
things he never investigated with things like count chocula is real and
there are alien bases on the moon.

Facts vs Conspiracy Theory
by Bob
I'm surprised that WIRED would print this trash article. To equate
the 9-11 Truth movement with "Lizard People" is just stupid. Any person
that doesn't question the government's conspiracy theory of 9-11, after
reading the material from Architects & Engineers For 911 Truth, is
too stupid to have an opinion on anything!

Conspiracy theories or conspiracy facts?
by KSH
The false flag Gulf of Tonkin incident which was used to start the
US invasion of Vietnam, was a conspiracy theory until the documents
were made public. It is now a fact that it was a false flag event.
Check freedom of information act.
The Murray building in OKC was blown up by the Clinton
administration, or CIA operatives who were working with Tim McVeigh as
another false flag incident to blame the US militia groups. Documents
are coming out to show some gov connections to Tim and his pals.
The shooters at the Virginia Tech and Fort Hood both went to school there.

CONSPIRACY FACT/MEDIA FALSE
by Lynn D.
The whole world operates on conspiracies. Anyone who can't see it
has got their head stuck in a hole. The above article is clearly a
'tongue in cheek' disinfo piece designed to ridicule anyone who doesn't
perform according to the CIA/culture creators' media script for the
goyim. The hard facts and DOCUMENTED ADMISSIONS by the CONSPIRATORS are
all over the place for any who care to look past all the vomitous
government propaganda the media spews out for us to 'believe'. Get your
heads out of the sewer, Ostriches! The Bible admits to the worldwide
conspiracy: "The WHOLE WORLD is under the DECEPTION of the wicked one."
1 John 5:19 and if you don't believe God Almighty, then how about David
Rockefeller: "For more than a century, ideological extremists at either
end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized
incidents to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence
they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions.
Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the
best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as
"internationalists" and of conspiring with others around the world to
build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one
world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am
proud of it." Or "The interests behind the Bush Administration, such as
the CFR, The Trilateral Commission - founded by Zbigniew Brzezinski for
David Rockefeller - and the Bilderberg Group, have prepared for and are
now moving to implement open world dictatorship within the next five
years. They are not fighting against terrorists. They are fighting
against citizens." Dr. Johannes B. Koeppl, Ph.D. Former German Defense
Ministry Official and Advisor to former NATO Secretary General Manfred
Werner. Or: "Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field
of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that
there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so
interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak
above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." Woodrow
Wilson Or: "The Masonic Religion should be, by all of us initiates of
the high degrees, maintained in the purity of the Luciferian doctrine."
(Albert Pike went on to proclaim), ... "Yes Lucifer is God ..." General
Albert Pike, Father of Freemasonry, 1809~1891 33rd degree, Sovereign
Grand Master of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Free Masonry,
Co-Founder of the Ku Klux Klan and Supreme Luciferian Pontiff. 'Morals
and Dogma' (Book: 1871). Get your heads out of your rear ends, stop
watching FOX and CNN and falling for the left/right false paradigm
provided by the elite oligarchy called "government."

'Conspiracies' happen every day.
by HCC
All a conspiracy is is an agreement between persons to deceive,
mislead, or defraud others. Sounds like what our government does on a
daily basis. And then when the truth comes out-- Watergate, Gulf of
Tonkin, Northwoods Incident, heck even the sneak and peek clause in the
Patriot Act-- suddenly the snide 'conspiracy debunkers' like Mr.Graves
are nowhere to be found to eat their words. Oh, right-- only us
civilians are prosecuted for criminal conspiracies. To accuse the
government as such is paramount to believing in reptile boogey-men and
evil fried chicken.

denying conspiracy?
by ralph
By constantly denying any conspiracy exists you give more credibilty
to conspiracy theory. The word "agenda" needs to replaced by conspiracy
when speaking of government. Than the American people will understand
how things operate in Washington D.C. and Wall st. The agenda is to
print and prop up a failed system of unpayable debt, phony capitalism
(cartelism), corruption, and immorality. All stemming from the ultimate
CONSPIRACY of all. Money made out of nothing: that can be created by
the will of corrupt, immoral, cartelised banks. Restore real money
(gold,silver,copper) and you restrain the ability of corrupt, immoral,
cartelised banks to create too much of this nothing money, lend it
interest, and rob the people blind. Corruption, immorality, and
cartelization (the elimination of ones competition) will always be with
us as humans. Restriction of the ability to create purchasing power out
of nothing is the check needed to curb the immorality, and injustice.

The theory of false flag conspiracy theories
by Oofer Troofer
The wackier troofer theories are propagated in order to discredit
those who want to know (1) why did BushCheney take no steps to protect
America after the Condoleeza memo (2) why didn't the FBI follow up on
the "flying school" tipoffs (3) who and what were the NJ "high fivers"
(4) what tipoffs were received from foreign governments (5) why did the
FAA take no immediate action on the day of, and (6) why were the
USAF/NORAD utterly useless.

central banking
USS Liberty attack
Pearl Harbor

The Goldstone Report
by Don Joe
From the day that The Goldstone report was released there was a US
media blackout on the subject. Goldstone, a jewish judge, had
investigated alledged criminal behaviour by the Israelis and
Palestinians during Israels 'Operation Cast Lead'. Goldstone found both
sides guilty of war crimes and possible crimes against humanity. But
because Israel had been accused of wrong doing, the mainstream media in
the USA made almost no mention of it.Even to this day, a Google News
search for the term 'Goldstone' produces no stories from the US media.
There are plenty from around the world and from Israel itself, but it
appears that you can't mention Israel in the US media unless they are
being praised or being referred to as a victim.

Presidential Conspiracy
by Mike
It is of course a pure coincidence that the USA had two presidents
named George Bush and that they were related. No two or more people
conspired to make any of that happen.
It used to be the case that facts are facts and only when you start to
theorize over who, why and how that you were labeled a conspiracy
theorist.
Unfortunately, paid entertainment writers who consider themselves
journalists feel they have the wisdom and intellectual right to brand
somebody as a nutcase when they question something such as the events
of 9/11. They may get a paycheck and make their peers laugh with a well
placed childish putdown. Shame on them. It is not unreasonable to
suggest that their laziness, ability to look the other way and
self-centered approach to their profession ultimately leaves them with
blood on their hands.
They had the chance to make a difference and they chose a quick buck
and a pat on the back

Janet Reno a GOLEM
by Waumpuscat
Hillary Rodham Clinton, while researching her Thesis Manuscript in
the Wellesley Library Extension at M.I.T., stumbled across an ancient
recipe for a GOLEM. Employing the proper Fixative Incantations, Mrs.
Clinton mixed the specified quantities of MUCK and OFFAL together
during a heavy Thunder Storm and Ms. (Later Attorney General Of These
United States) Janet Reno sprang full bodied from the galvanized wash
tub purloined from the wall of a road-side Dixie Restaurant during the
Full Moon. After clothing the Creature, Mrs. Clinton had her
"Enforcer". You want PROOF? Can you HANDLE the Proof? The POGROM at
Waco! Only a GOLEM could do it!

Plain sight
by Mike
If you look at the names of major Hollywood, and record studios, the
owners, or ceos are mostly Jewish. Is it a conspiracy that they are
mostly Jewish, and should it be included in a discussion that includes
lizard people? As far as the Trillateral Commission, the Council on
Foreign Relations,Bilderberger, their members have had a majority in
every Presidential adminstiration since Carter. Wouldn't it be naive,
if not outright stupid, to suppose that they are not exerting some
degree of influence on the decision making process that comes out of
the White House?

The Writer of this Article Works for The CIA
by Asstoot
The author seeks to lump together perfectly rational questions (i.e.
9/11 truth) with asinine theories like lizard people and The Cute
Beatle. He clearly works for the CIA. | |
