List of CIA Activities

corbin · 14th August 2011, 09:34 PM

Found this on another forum... what do you think? Some of the activities of the CIA in particular seem to suggest an elitist model of power rather than a plural one.

Quote:

I see arguments on here from posters who laugh and/or mock people who want to question their government or simply don't believe what they are being told to be true.

Breach of rule 4 removed. Do not copy and paste large amounts of material from other sites.

"Inventing 9/11 Conspiracy" is missing from your list.

corbin · 14th August 2011, 09:38 PM

As I said, it isn't MY list.

Second, perhaps it is there. You don't know because you didn't read more than 1/10 of the post.

How does it suggest an "elitist" power model?

A vague question like "What do you think?" isn't really going to motivate people to do so.

Yes, the government lies to the public. Is there anything more specific you want to talk about?

You missed the Jani Lane murders that would link the CIA to the Illuminati. Check out this thread.

The CIA also have a hand in many of the muppets characters, you wont find it on any list though because its a secret.

I think you're confusing Jim Henson's muppets with another muppet show called "the US government."

After spending my life watching and observing the human race I have come to the conclusion everyones a muppet to someone else.

False. I read the entire list.

I have not read your wall of text, since it was removed as breaching your MA.

Having no little experience in the genre, however, if the list is presented with no refutation even hinted at, I can pretty much guarantee that it's crap.

If there is a *specific* item on the list you feel should be addressed here, first use the search function on the forum to see where it has already been discussed (as it almost certainly has) or failing that, start a thread on that specific topic.

Thank you.
