We studied the best stories from the series of "theories by talking" and if we missed any important details, it is because we ourselves participated in them.
The moon landing was rigged
What do the supporters of this theory say? The film, which captures Neil Armstrong's giant leaps into the future of humanity, contains serious contradictions. An examination of the inconsistencies and mistakes of the recording reveals that the tape was in fact fabricated by some television studio with the intention of fooling the gullible world. First, the lunar surface is known to be covered with dry dust. If so, why does Armstrong leave clear marks on her? Secondly, there is no wind in space. If this is true, then why does the American flag, set on the surface of the (alleged) Moon, flutter and flap like a light breeze blowing there? Would he have to hang motionless? Third, why is there not a single star in the sky that should have been clearly visible in the lunar atmosphere? Fourth, all the footage of the astronauts landing on the moonalthough they should have been filmed from different points and at different angles over an almost five-kilometer stretch, they show the same landscape (or backdrop?). What does all this mean? Did NASA have enough money for decent decorations?
Who is speaking? The author of the theory is Bill Keysing, who served as an editor-librarian at the Rocketdyne company, which worked on the creation of lunar devices for the Apollo project. He still calls himself an expert, although he quit the company back in 1963, when both most of the project and the work of Keysing himself were not scientific in nature and were not associated with NASA. But Keysing claims to have exposed the aerospace agency, and his words fall on the fertile soil of a super-skeptic, post-Watergate America.
How plausible is this? Richard Nixon was president at that time, so, in principle, anything could be. But NASA disproves much of its claims with films with a simple reason: In the 1960s, movie cameras weren't very good quality. Therefore, for example, there are no stars on the lunar landing frames, although they were visible with the naked eye - the primitive lens of that time simply could not capture them. Almost all independent experts who studied the recordings of that distant newsreel admitted that NASA's arguments sound convincing. And then, if such a huge conspiracy - in which hundreds, if not thousands of people were supposed to participate - really existed, then in the forty years that have passed since then, would only Keysing talk about it?
Russian President Vladimir Putin orchestrated apartment bombings
Promotional video:
In 1999, on the eve of the presidential elections, to rekindle hysteria about Chechen terrorism and win for sure.
What do the supporters of this theory say? In September 1999, the explosions of two residential buildings in Moscow and two more in other cities of Russia killed more than 300 civilians. Panic broke out among the Russians. The newly appointed (and not yet elected) Prime Minister Vladimir Putin immediately blamed Chechen terrorists for everything. In fact, the explosions were staged by FSB agents in order to ensure Putin's victory in the elections. They were faced with the task of creating a sense of crisis, in which it would be easier for Putin to justify the use of tough measures against the Chechens, to stop the decline in his rating and to save the elections. The goal was achieved: in March 2000, Putin outstripped his rivals by a colossal margin.
The conspiracy was exposed after another apartment building, also slated for an explosion, was rescued in Ryazan, a hundred miles south of Moscow, thanks to the vigilance of residents who spotted explosives in the basement and three suspicious individuals tinkering with it. The police arrested the suspects, who turned out to be agents of the Russian special services and were later released. The FSB said that "exercises" were being held in Ryazan, in which for some reason real explosives were used - and this is in a house where more than 250 people lived.
Who is speaking? A whole group of respected journalists investigated the explosions at the request of Channel 4. They formulated poignant questions: “Was Vladimir Putin involved in a heinous conspiracy to justify the brutality of the Chechen war? Were the bombings of houses in Moscow part of the bloody price that had to be paid to be elected president of Russia? Several major figures in Russian politics, including media mogul Boris Berezovsky, now in self-imposed exile in London, are inclined to answer these questions in the affirmative.
How plausible is this? At first, this theory seems far-fetched, but one should not forget that the FSB is essentially just a renamed KGB, whose principle for decades has remained large-scale terror aimed at serving the interests of the country's top leadership. Putin himself previously served in the KGB and twice, by the hands of the State Duma, prohibited an independent investigation of these crimes. Since then, no solid evidence of the involvement of the Chechens in the bombings has been presented, while the Chechen separatists have stated that it was not their work - although the same Chechens have repeatedly claimed responsibility for other crimes. The excuse about "exercises" in Ryazan is simply laughable. She suggests that FSB agents were caught by the hand at the crime scene that time.
Bill and Hillary Clintons ordered to kill their close friend …
… and White House employee Vince Foster and make it look like it was a suicide.
What do the supporters of this theory say? On July 20, 1993, Vine Foster was found dead in his car in the woods near Washington. Death was due to a gunshot wound to the chest. Foster was a central figure in the Whitewater land case, which later sparked a major scandal involving the president and his wife. Foster knew too much. He became dangerous for Bill and Hillary, who hired an assassin to take him out.
Who is speaking? New York-based right-wing journalist William Safir challenged the suicide verdict. At the same time, the presenter of one of the nationally famous radio stations in the United States, Rush Limbaugh, began to publicly declare that Foster had been killed. To date, there are about three hundred sites on the network devoted to this "conspiracy", the theory of which is still supported by some conservative politicians and members of fanatical American paramilitary groups.
How plausible is this? Bill Clinton did have to take their lives for political reasons. During the 1992 election campaign, he came to the residence of the governor of Arkansas to personally order the execution of a mentally disabled Negro. After Al Qaeda attacked the US Embassy in Nairobi in 1998, it immediately ordered the bombing of a peaceful pharmaceutical factory in Sudan in response. According to Noah Chomsky's calculations, due to the lack of medicines that the factory could produce. 10 thousand people died. But Vince Foster's death was thoroughly investigated in the 1990s. Even Clinton's desperate ill-wisher, independent attorney Kenneth Starr, was forced to admit, after months of work,that Foster did indeed commit suicide (he suffered from depression for a long time) and that there is no connection between his death and the president's family.
Diana, Princess of Wales, was killed
What do the supporters of this theory say? Nothing concrete. There is no single coherent theory that would explain both the very mechanics of "murder" and its possible motives. Part of the suspicion stems from Henri Paul, the chauffeur from the Ritz Hotel who drove that fateful evening. During the autopsy process, a high content of alcohol and drugs was found in his blood, so most supporters of the "conspiracy theory" are sure that Paul was poisoned on purpose, in order to provoke an accident. Others believe Paul was associated with the French intelligence services, as well as with the British intelligence service MJ. Some even claim that he was "programmed" to kill Diana.
Others are wondering about the second car, which, according to the testimony of reliable witnesses, including the British lawyer Gary Hahnter, at full speed disappeared from the scene of the accident. Hunter said: "It seemed to me that the people in the second car were trying to get out of there as soon as possible, I'm sure they were running away … It looked pretty ominous." Hunter never tried to capitalize on this story. PL / Company filmed a documentary about how the disaster could have been provoked, suggesting that Henri Paul could be blinded by a flash of light, or that a second car - which, by the way, despite an active search, was never found - could have pressed Diana's limousine to wall in the tunnel under the Alma Bridge.
Conspiracy theorists also disagree over the motives behind the alleged "murder." Mohammed Al-Fayed believes Diana was killed by order of Prince Philip because she was expecting a child from Mohammed's son, Dodi Al-Fayed. The Windsor family, Mohammed believes, could not come to terms with the fact that Prince William would have a Muslim half-brother. Some websites claim that Diana's campaign to end antipersonnel mines threatened the interests of the international military-industrial industry, so the princess was removed from the military-industrial complex.
Who is speaking? The fact that Diana and Dodi were killed is believed by most of the inhabitants of the Arab world, and in Egypt even a mini-series was shown about how the English queen arranges the death of the princess so that she does not hang around with Muslims. How plausible is this? Perhaps important evidence in this case will still be made public. One Richard Tomlinson, a former employee of M16, in his affidavit, given under oath, stated: “I firmly believe that there are documents in the bowels of British intelligence MI6 that contain important information about the causes and circumstances of the death of Princess Diana and her companions in August 1997 of the year.
However, the possible motives for the alleged murder are so far unconvincing. The elder Al Fayed is known for his eccentric statements. Plus, you don't need to be a big fan of Prince Philip to find the idea that he killed his own daughter-in-law (and that M16 is directly obeying his orders) absurd. Other possible explanations, such as those related to Diana's humanitarian work, seem a little more convincing. But, we repeat again, no hard evidence has yet been presented.
Muslims / Jews (underline as appropriate) were warned in advance not to show up at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001
What do the supporters of this theory say? There are two mirror-like theories here. One of them says that American Muslims knew about the attacks in advance. Allegedly, a certain Muslim student from a Brooklyn school told his teacher on September 6, 2001: "'You see those two buildings? They will be gone in a week." On September 10, 2001, a sixth grader from the Middle East warned his Jersey City School teachers to stay out of Manhattan the next day because "something terrible is about to happen." Teachers in other New York schools, which overlooked the World Trade Center towers, "reported that Muslim students during the terrorist attack filmed what was happening on video and cameras: it seemed strange to teachers that so many people immediately took with them to school equipment on that day.
Another theory makes the exact same accusation against the Jews. Soon after the attacks, several Middle Eastern newspapers reported that 4,000 Jews who worked in the offices of the World Trade Center did not come to the service on 9/11 and that there were no Jews among the victims of the attacks. Allegedly, this happened because the attack on the WTO was planned by the Mossad, who wanted in this way to unleash anti-Arab hysteria throughout the world.
Who is speaking? The anti-Islamic theory circulates in extremely conservative circles in the United States, but only the journalist of the British newspaper Telegraph Mark Stein voiced it publicly. Anti-Semitic theory is much more widespread. A poll by Gallup a few months after the attacks showed that the majority of the population in the Arab world believes in it.
How plausible is this? There is no evidence to support either theory. Stein relied on the "testimonies" of laid-off and fired newspapermen from the suburbs of New York. The British journalist did not even consider it necessary to collect convincing evidence for his words about Muslim students who allegedly filmed the fall of the Twin Towers on film. Calling at random seven selected New York schools, all of whom were unanimous: all these rumors, in the words of one of the secretaries, are "bullshit." In the worst case, some student might have heard from one of the terrorists about the plans for 9/11, but hundreds? Stein, apparently, seriously believes that many American Muslims knew about the impending terrorist attacks and did not warn anyone - even from among those three hundred Muslims,who died under the ruins of the WTO. This is consistent with Stein's prejudice that all Muslims are extremely cruel. Likewise, reports of “four thousand Jews” in Middle Eastern newspapers and pro-fascist European websites are completely misleading. It is inconceivable that the Mossad could take and attack Israel's closest ally and most generous donor.
