Conspiracist Nonsense

by Steven Plaut


ALL the same mental contortions and mindset
I wanted to recommend strongly that, if you get the chance, you should watch the program on the History Channel about 911 conspiracy "theories."  It is extraordinarily well done. Go to fullsize image (not the only infantile conspiracy nut around!)

Most of us have a tendency to dismiss the conspiracy nuts as idiots with whom it is a waste of time to argue over facts or to gather the counter-evidence needed to prove they are wrong.  But that is exactly what the program does and it does so really well.  It is based in part on the special issue of Popular Mechanics that examined and debunked the "scientific" claims of the conspiracists: things like "doubts" about the collapse of WTC Building Seven, "doubts" about whether the heat was enough to bring down the twin towers, "doubts" about the crash of Flight 93, "doubts" about the plane hitting the Pentagon, the "evidence" of other explosions in the WTC as it collapsed, etc etc etc.  Few people have the patience to wade through all that and collect the engineering counter-evidence that disproves the claims of the conspiracists.  But the History Channel did so and did so in spades.  Its program demolishes every bit of "evidence" of any "theory" that challenges the official explanation of al-Qaeda hijacking the planes and knocking down the towers as a terror attack.

Even more important, it exposes at length the conspiracist mindset, the need to invent convoluted "explanations" for dramatic events that go beyond the obvious and the simple, the outright lies, the attempts to take anything that looks curious at first glance and attribute it to fictional grand conspiracies, and so on.  The conspiracists also refuse to look at the obvious gaping holes in their own theory, holes a million times larger than any "holes" in the official theory.  How did the Republican conspirators inside the WTC know on which floor the planes would hit so that they could plant the bombs to go off together with the planes hitting the building at exactly those floors?

Now I mention all this because if you watch this show you will immediately see ALL the same mental contortions and mindset to be found among the conspiracy nuts and conspiracy believers in Israel and the Jewish world when it comes to the Rabin "conspiracy theory."  The Rabin conspiracists use all the same methods of "detection" as the "911 Truth" cult, although not as thoroughly and imaginatively.  They operate with the same modus operandi, with the same willingness to lie, the same disregard for all real evidence, the same gaping holes in their OWN "theory."  (How come Yigal Amir insists he is guilty and insists that he fired real bullets if he did not?) 

And like the Rabin conspiracist "theory," the "911 Truth" idiocy continues to enjoy a certain popularity among the less intelligent segments of the populations.  It does not matter how many times the "outstanding questions" get put to rest and answered, nor how many times the conspiracy "evidence" is totally disproved.

Cain was a Patsy

by Steven Plaut

Obviously doctored scene taken from Genesis surveillance tape! 

We have received incredible breaking news.

A team of people claiming to be investigative reporters based in Florida, Ohio, and Jeruslem have announced that they have discovered that Cain was a patsy and that he did not in fact murder Abel.

Numerous pieces of evidence have been brought together in order to derive this conclusion, they insist.  And the inconsistencies in the official report in Genesis about the developments on the day of the assassination must mean that Cain was innocent and had been set up as a patsy by a nefarious conspiracy.

First, they insist, Cain did not in fact stab Abel with an actual knife but rather used a fake rubber knife from a gimmick shop that was picked up in Chinatown.  That explains why there were reports that a passerby down the road was thought to have yelled "Rubber Knife!  Rubber Knife!"

Second, in the surveillance tapes near the exit from the Garden of Eden, Cain's arm appears to be unnaturally long, suggesting some sort of conspiracy was at play.

Third, the very fact that Cain admitted that he murdered Abel when questioned about it proves that he was set up and a victim of a conspiracy.  The fact that Cain later continued to plead guilty and that everyone else in his family agreed that he was guilty just shows how broad the real conspiracy was!  You see, Abel - even after being elected - may have been having second thoughts about his own policies regarding sacrifices and a sinister conspiracy wanted to prevent Abel from changing the menu.  So Cain was a convenient scapegoat.

There are so many inconsistencies in the official report of the Abel murder, insist the investigators and promoters of the Alternative Theory of the Abel Assassination, the one that challenges the accuracy of the report in Genesis.

Why didn't anyone call 911 or even 101 to get emergency medical help?  Why was the palm tree near Cain seen in the surveillance tape as having branches that moved strangely and in an unexplained manner?   And just how many wounds did Abel have?  Initial reports said 12 stab wounds, and later it was claimed in the official commission of investigation that there were  only 11!  But what about the unexplained extra hole in Abel's shirt, cleverly disguised to look like a cigarette burn?  And why did Eve not try to give Abel CPR (not to be confused with CFR!)?  What exactly was Eve REALLY doing when the murder took place?  And how come we have not been shown all the CAT scan images of Abel's corpse?

Meanwhile, there are growing demands for a re-opening of the investigation on web sites around the world that otherwise investigate the 9-11 attacks on the US, UFO abductions, and the Holocaust Hoax invented by Zionists.  Several self-proclaimed "journalists" are demanding that Abel's complete set of medical records be published at once.  They also claim that the surveillance tapes near the Garden of Eden exit have been doctored to make it appear that Cain was the murderer.  A popular singer has just come out in favor of releasing Cain from prison so that the real murderer can be identitified.  The conspiracy theorists claim that anyone who rejects their arguments about Cain's innocence must be a paid agent of the forces of darkness and the Council on Foreign Relations.

We will keep you updated on all new developments in this major breaking story!
