to those slinging labels & claiming this discussion is not worthy of the political thread...
it is dismissive and, entirely, rude to throw around terms, which knowingly bear a negative connontation (regardless of the fact they shouldn't), like "conspiracy theorists" or the more degrading "insane", and tell people this belongs in the paranoia forum.
such retorts are comparable to schoolyard name-calling and demeaning, and they lend, absolutely, no value to the discussion.
if you have nothing intellingent or compelling to reply with, i would suggest that you just refrain from typing till you, actually, do have something credible to refute the claims.
i would also like to state:
conspiracy theory does not = paranoia.
conspiracies occur on a daily basis, and the american government has taken part in its fair share of them that were later exposed.
and lest we forget, everything is theory - untill proven factual.
people are offering/analyzing/discussing actual evidence, and whether or not you agree with the conclusion they come to, it is not anyone's place to label the other's thoughts/perceptions/conclusions as paranoid.
if you are, for whatever reason, not open to to reading other's posts (on this particular subject) objectively, with an open mind and willingness to weigh the facts, then there is no reason you should comment on it, at all.
read it for kicks, if you wish, and then move on.
