It is altogether new to me. I wasn't even alive in the 60's. LOL! So is Quigley part of the Bircher group? Can you give specific reasons as to why you don't believe the theories? To me, this is sort of like stock talk. If you don't like a stock, don't just say you don't like it. Offer some specific reasons as to why you don't like it. If you have already done the DD then enlighten me. If every part of this secret society thing is false and you have specific reasons that will shed light on the falsehoods, then please do. I am aware that most conspiracy theories are simply that; theories. I am also aware that most widely publicized theories, or should I say widely followed theories, become so by enough truth or near truth to have at least a small amount of credibility. Much like the Roswell thing. Two things in that deal are quite obvious. First, something definitely crashed. Secondly, the government doesn't want the general public to know anything about it. If it was a weather balloon, then why all the secrecy? I am approaching the secret society thing as I approach everything. With an open mind. I don't want these grand government conspiracies to be true. It would be quite horrifing if they were. But I can't approach a subject with what I want at the forefront of my mind. My first impression was that it was ridiculous to think that there was such a grand conspiracy afoot. But I am certainly not going to allow that first impression to absolutly be my last impression. Just because some of it might be fabricated doesn't mean all of it is fabricated. I have noticed that there are usually two sides to everything and each side tries to paint the picture that will support their side. If the picture needs some touching up to shed a more favorable light on one side or the other, and it usually seems to, then so be it. So what I am saying is this. In any given recount of the way things happened way back when, there are usually two sides and both are not exactly true. The truth actually lies somewhere in the gray areain the middle. The underlying problem here is the credibility of the government. They have not always been altogether truthful to the public. One lie leads to a million suppositions. If they'll lie about one thing, then what can we believe? Some of the articles I posted seem to suggest that the government facilitated the attacks of Sept. 11th, 2001. They angered an enemy then made it easy for the enemy to attack. Our government says that it was organizational problems. So it was either our government facilitated the attack or our government is inept. Either way it sucks. The FBI had the info they needed to stop the attacks. No one acted on it. Why? If the problem was ineptitude then what has been done about it? Will the new Homeland Security dept. ensure that it won't happen again? As of right now, overall I am in the ineptitude camp. Especially considering that the idiots at the INS are still letting terrorists in the country. There is obviously some breakdown in that department. The one thing that really gets me to wondering is the FBI thing. It was widely publicized that the FBI had the info before the attacks and chose not to act on it. Then they promoted the guy who was responsible for the FBI not acting if I am not mistaken. Why? What the hell is going on there? Am I saying it is proof of a grand conspiracy? No. I am saying there is something seriously wrong there though. I find the notion of the FBI being inept about as ridiculous as the conspiracy theories themselves.
