I love conspiracy theories, don´t you? Especially when they turn out not to be conspiracy theories at all, but real, larger than life conspiracies hidden in plain view.
The remarkable Marshall McLuhan wrote,
” Conspiracies that are too incredible to be believed, are for that very reason the most successful.”
However, it´s very sad when the facts of life beat our worst nightmares, when real events turn out to surpass the maximum evil we had imagined possible.
I know: conspiracy theories can be toxic. They can mentally poison our minds and our relationships. They can be mistaken for paranoia, or even schizophrenia. They can cause fear unnecessarily, which is a toxic element all by itself.
I consider fear to be Humanity´s worst scourge that has probably caused more damage and suffering than almost anything else. The old wisdom that more people died from fear of the plague than from the plague itself, is very revealing. So fear, especially if exaggerated or unfounded, is very bad for us.
Rulers throughout the ages, both worldly and religious, have intentionally been using fear to control the people and make them accept otherwise unacceptable compulsory measures or limitations in their freedom. Recent examples of this are many popular “scares”, sometimes turned into “wars”: HIV/AIDS, Cancer, Drugs, Anthrax, Bird flue, Swine flue, Terrorism and on and on. All of them are invented scares to serve a hidden agenda to control the population and at the same time make obscene amounts of money, often directly from illness,addictions, and death. Yes, even AIDS and cancer, which are really easy and cheap to cure with natural methods that have been outlawed by the pharmaceutical industry in favor of their own excessively profitable and gravely damaging “treatments”.
Fear is bad, but being unaware of a danger is no better. We are not all Mr. Magoos, who will always miraculously miss the dangers we don´t see. So, when there really is a conspiracy going on against our well-being, our health, our happiness, our future, or even our lives, we had better sit up and take notice, and then do something about it.
But how do you know which scares are real, and which are sly fakes to keep you submissive and squeeze money out of you? Both are dangerous, but in different, essentially opposite ways.
The pressure on you NOT to become aware is immense. It comes from the perpetrators of the conspiracies themselves, from mainstream media, and from the vast majority of people around you who aggressively reject the idea, partly because it´s so incredible to them, and partly because accepting it would seriously disturb their peace of mind, their view of the world, in fact their whole existence. Their reaction is not unlike that of the anecdotal ostrich that buries its head in the ground in order not to see the danger. It´s just too darn uncomfortable and outright scary to yield to such ideas, so they are best rejected.
It´s really not easy for those who spot the conspiracies, to resist the massive peer pressure from society, often ridiculing them, or even implying that they are going insane. Actually, this refusal on the part of most people to see what´s really happening, is a kind of PARADIGM BLINDNESS. Those suffering from it limit their world and their possibilities to what they already know, or rather to what they believe. They refuse to see anything beyond that limit, nor will they entertain any such possibility.
Our emotions can be our best friends, but not seldom they also turn out to be our worst enemies. When our emotions, desires or fears block our rational thoughts, when they make us not register and acknowledge what is there, right in front of our eyes, then they put us in danger´s way. And not only ourselves but all who depend on us too.
So before a danger, I will opt for open eyes, rationality and mental clarity every time, rather than emotions and wishful thinking.
IT´S HIGH TIME WE BECAME AWARE OF WHAT THE RULING GLOBAL MILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX IS DOING TO US ALL, AND TO OUR PLANET.
IT´S TIME TO CONNECT THE DOTS, TAKE NOTICE, AND ACT.
OK, all you paradigm blind, by all means call me a conspirationist and dismiss these uncomfortable and unbelievable allegations to keep your precarious peace of mind. Along with your fears. And your circumcised, ever diminishing freedom.
Former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura, former US Marine, Vietnam veteran, wrestler, actor and author is now on a crusade against the US government. He has been hosting a TV program called CONSPIRACY THEORY, and has just published the book 63 Documents the Government Doesn´t Want You to See. He emphasizes that all 63 documents are official public documents, some originally secret but later de-classified. By publishing them he breaks no law. He also mentioned that only last year the US government classified 16,000,000 (sixteen million!) documents as top secret, indicating the quantity of government investigations, decisions, policies etc. that are kept from public knowledge. Conspiracies, anyone?
But, as I never stop pointing out, the Aquarian Paradigm does not allow secrets, and sooner or later everything is now coming out into the open, with or without Wikileaks, with or without Jesse Ventura.

The other day I happened to see three TV interviews with Jesse Ventura about his new book. Some of Ventura´s 63 documents throw a clear light on the deception and lies surrounding the demolition of the three World Trade Center buildings in New York City on 9/11, chalked up to 19 Arabs with box-cutters who couldn´t even fly a Cessna, and who were not even on the passenger lists. Supposedly acting on behalf of the mysterious Al Qaeda, which is now known to be a creation of the CIA.
There are some excellent videos about this on YouTube, piling up easily a hundred undeniable circumstances and facts that prove without the shadow of a doubt that the official version of this “false flag operation” is a bunch of brazen lies. Anyone who dares watch the video and use his or her rational mind and common sense, will see how glaringly impossible the official version of this event is.
If you haven´t yet seen any of the 9/11 videos on YouTube, I strongly recommend you go to http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7866929448192753501#
Ventura talked in his interviews about other “false flag operations” by the US government or military. One was the so called Operation Northwoods in 1962, when the military top brass proposed to John F. Kennedy that they arrange an attack on US vessels or towns that would kill US citizens, blaming the Cubans, in order to get the Americans all fired up to support a retaliatory invasion of Cuba. Kennedy refused, and in addition he declared that he would withdraw all American troops from Vietnam by 1965. This was too much for the warmongers behind the throne, and so they assassinated him in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. I always felt intuitively that Kennedy´s vicepresident, Lyndon B. Johnson was in on the conspiracy to kill Kennedy. However, I don´t think he took the initiative, even if he promptly acted out the intentions of the CIA and Pentagon. And so the Vietnam war was not only continued but vastly expanded. When Kennedy was killed, only 42 Americans had died in Vietnam (Vietnamese deaths were not included in their war statistics), but the number of killed Americans is reported to have risen to 60,000 before the war was finally ended.
Some eight months after the murder of J. F. Kennedy, another “false flag operation” took place, in which I was personally involved as the head of the Swedish Embassy in Pakistan. I am referring to the so called Gulf of Tonkin incident, where a US warship reported being attacked by Vietnamese forces. I happened to be the chargé d´affaires of Sweden in Pakistan at the time and was contacted by the US embassy there to communicate this incident to the Swedish Government and ask for its support. The “incident” was used as an excuse to expand and prolong the Vietnamese war. President Johnson went to Congress with a resolution that echoes Orwell´s 1984, twenty years early, and was given a blank cheque to make war in Vietnam without any restrictions, “to promote the maintenance of international peace and security in southeast Asia.” – Peace through war – “War is Peace!”
Here is the main text of the resolution. Underlinings are mine.
“Whereas naval units of the Communist regime in Vietnam, in violation of the principles of the Charter of the United Nations and of international law, have deliberately and repeatedly attacked United States naval vessels lawfully present in international waters, and have thereby created a serious threat to international peace; and
Whereas theses attacks are part of a deliberate and systematic campaign of aggression that the Communist regime in North Vietnam has been waging against its neighbors and the nations joined with them in the collective defense of their freedom; and
Whereas the United States is assisting the peoples of southeast Asia to protect their freedom and has no territorial, military or political ambitions in that area, but desires only that these peoples should be left in peace to work out their own destinies in their own way: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled. That the Congress approves and supports the determination of the President, as Commander in Chief, to take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further aggression.
Sec. 2. The United States regards as vital to its national interest and to world peace the maintenance of international peace and security in southeast Asia. Consonant with the Constitution of the United States and the Charter of the United Nations and in accordance with its obligations under the Southeast Asia Collective Defense Treaty, the United States is, therefore, prepared, as the President determines, to take all necessary steps, including the use of armed force, to assist any member or protocol state of the Southeast Asia Collective Defense Treaty requesting assistance in defense of its freedom.”
Jesse Ventura points out that the US Secretary of Defense at the time, Robert McNamara, confessed shortly before his death in 2009, that the Gulf of Tonkin “incident” never happened, but was invented in order to have an excuse for an all out war on North Vietnam.
Typically, and revealingly, on two of the three interviews I saw with Ventura on the subject of his book, the interviewing reporter made a big show of how absurd and ridiculous Ventura´s opinion was that Cheney knew about the attacks on the WTC twin towers and stopped the airforce from intervening and taking down the planes before they hit their targets. And then both reporters – on apparently unrelated channels – cut him short and changed the subject. Far from staying neutral and allowing Ventura to develop the content of the official documents, both reporters censured his input on this subject and tried to discredit him.
As Marshall McLuhan remarked, ” Conspiracies that are too incredible to be believed, are for that very reason the most successful.”
And they don´t seem to be getting any fewer.
