My personal tin foil hat spam
Edited on Wed Nov-26-03 11:02 PM by kixot
Submitted for your approval, an e-mail I am forwarding to everyone I know. I have you all to thank for the content.

There is a great of amount of information out there being dismissed or ignored. The easiest way to discredit the accusation of one's detractors is to brand it absurd and the product of insanity, thus deserving of no further attention.

The times in which we live are not unique nor do they exist in vacuum from the rest of history. What is happening now has been in the planning for some generations and is now coming to fruition. The consequences are immense and awareness of the issue is not enough but it's a start. I include some links below about a project you will read about. It is not fiction. The original documents have been transferred and mimeographed and are available for public view at the links below. For legitimacy purposes I include another VERY well known government experiment of a similar nature that should show what is capable of the powers that be.

First see what's out there publicly available:

http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/jointchiefs_010501.html

http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/northwoods.html

Then see the official Joint Chiefs of Staff memo outlining the plan:

http://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/Northwoods.html <- typed out

http://emperors-clothes.com/images/north-i.htm <- original mimeograph

Then read this.

http://www.attackonamerica.net/operationnorthwoods.htm

Before you dismiss this as outlandish and extreme, know that this is not the only instance of this sort of proposition. An experiment of similar nature deliberately placing innocent civilians in harm was performed between 1932 and 1972 and is historically recorded and known as the Tuskegee Experiment. I include links below. Remember, this, too, was once branded "conspiracy nonsense" and a nonentity by high level officials. Read about it and decide for yourself if those in power are too "moral" to consider such atrocities. Curiosity may have killed the cat but naivity takes no prisoners either.

If you have read even the majority of the material presented above your head is swimming right now. I understand. I have been there now for almost 3 years, confused, dismayed, betrayed, and enraged. Please forward this e-mail, if you forward nothing else at all.

"The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost invariably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And if he is not romantic personally, he is apt to spread discontent among those who are."

- H.L. Mencken

2. Cognitive dissonance.
Stuff at this level usually produces cognitive dissonance
in the reader.

When your sense of security is deeply tied to believe
that the powers that be are beneficial to and protective
of the people they govern.

When presented with this contradiction, I think most
people hold it against the presenter for the their bubble
of comfort and trust being interrupted.

I thought it was interesting. I remember when the
radiation experimentation on unwilling and uniformed
people was exposed and declassified in the mid-nineties,
I found it shocking. Universities studies feeding
radioactive cereal to mentally handicap children in the
50's and 60's. I could only think what did the people
who did that tell them self to justify it.
