Conspiracy Theories by Daniel Dilworth
There are people who are adamant 9/11 was done by the United States government; there are those who claim the Boston Marathon bombing was done by the United States government. You name it, there are people who doubt it happened the way most people believe.
Take the 9/11 attacks: we have people, including the (in)famous “documentary” maker Michael Moore, who believes the US government and the Bushes knew of the terrorists before they ever happened. Fahrenheit 9/11 shows Moore’s ideas, which, if we are honest, seem only half-baked and more biased than Nazi propaganda.
Really, though, the latest conspiracies about the Boston Marathon are pretty sad. We have some people who claim the Chechens were framed by the FBI. This seems pretty nonsensical considering they hijacked a car, shot dead a policeman outside the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Techonology. In the ensuing gunfight they injured more people. Yes, it’s unfortunate one was killed but at least he can do no more harm to society. The younger brother was caught in a boat.
Let’s face it, if these guys were innocent they would have protested their innocence rather than shooting policemen and committing grand theft auto. So, what I say to these conspiracy theorists is this: do something better with your time; don’t tell us no planes crashed into the World Trade Centre; don’t tell us the Pentagon was blown up from inside; don’t tell us George Bush is a devil who came to wreak havoc on the world.
People have had their lives ruined by these tragedies and more. Don’t make up these farcical fairytales to cover-up for the terrorists.
