Although many people either: laugh, scoff, or look down upon “Conspiracy Theorists” – I, for one, won’t! Let’s face it, Conspiracies can and do [factually] happen – all of the time…. In order to gain some useful or insightful perspective, let’s consider exactly what a Conspiracy is.
Quote:
“A Conspiracy: is a preplanned or premeditated act, on the part of a specific group or grouping of individuals, in order to accomplish A Common: Goal, Interest, or Agenda – which, if made publicly known, would suffer from that readily available knowledge.”Considering that particular definition, our past world history documents, references, and footnotes millions of Conspiracies - later being proven beyond doubt. We have had: Political Assassinations, Religious Exterminations, Ethnic Genocides, False Flag Events, Massive Corporate Cover-ups, Insider Trading, and every other form of potential conspiracy going on - throughout our collective history. Although a few recent examples come to mind, such as:
The New World Order and One World Government Movement. Bernie Madoff’s, 50 year [and 50 billion dollar], Ponzi scheme. Toyota’s Kamikaze Car Scandal. The Security And Prosperity Partnership. Congress’s, artificially created, “Housing Bubble.” John Edwards’s Presidential Mistress Cover-up. Enron’s Massive Corporate Swindles. Arthur Anderson’s, numerous, Accounting Cover-ups.Our History is filled with millions of: more numerous, more widespread, and [often] more socially egregious examples. Horrific atrocities, such as: “The Catholic Inquisitions,” “Germany’s Jewish Exterminations,” and “The Ethnic Cleansings Of Serbia” are highly noted examples - of these types of gross social injustices. They are one’s, which stand as a constant reminder, to man’s inhumanity toward his fellow man. Nor, should we ever forget them!
All of these well-documented activities were carried out, by those: who factually knew the circumstances occurring, fully understood the hidden-agendas involved, and yet, willfully remained silent regarding them. Moreover, the people who extensively perpetrate such unwarranted activities share one commonly held worldview. It is often loudly and virulently proclaimed: “The End justifies The Means!” This is the terminology always employed - for the purest forms of Evil.
