(NaturalNews) You've probably heard about them or read some of them – some of the "wild conspiracy theories" that attempt to explain world events. To many people, they are just that – wild stories with no basis in rationality or fact.The "mainstream" of society – pop culture, the media, political movements – tend to dismiss conspiracies as comical fodder, distractions that are little more than kooky sideshows offered by creeps and weirdoson the edge of what many consider "normal" existence.As noted by Alex Proud, writing at UK'sBut, he asks, what if the conspiracy theorists were right after all – at least, right aboutthings?He goes on to mention "the big one" – the Kennedy assassination, which he admitted was never easily dismissed. Still, finding out "the truth" would likely prove nearly impossible, as any access to information that might refute the government's official story and the investigative Warren Commission report, which concluded that a single shooter – Lee Harvey Oswald – and not a trio of CIA-sponsored assassins, Mafia members or any others, was responsible for killing the president.But these days, things have changed – especially since about the year 2000, Proud says. Yesterday's conspiracy theories often become tomorrow's news headlines, and he cites some examples:"The most disgusting abuse of power in a generation and a moral quagmire that never ends. America is attacked by terrorists and so, declares war on a country that had nothing whatsoever to do with the attacks, while ignoring an oil rich ally which had everything to do with them," he wrote. "The justification for war is based on some witches' brew of faulty intelligence, concocted intelligence and ignored good intelligence." Good people were forced to tell lies, the UK was forced to join in the carnage and spill blood and treasure for no good reason, he added.This is a good segue from the Iraq war debacle, Proud notes: "Virtually destroy the western financial system in the name of greed. Get bailed out by the taxpayers who you've been ripping off. And then carry on as if nothing whatsoever has happened. No jail, no meaningful extra regulation, the idea of being too big to fail as much of a joke as it was in 2005. Not even an apology."It was revealed, fully, during the banking crisis: The world's richestthe, and they are enriching themselves further through phony, experimental monetary policies like "quantitative easing," which has mostly gone to enrich the biggest banks , not help the economy.And here at, we have exposed a few conspiracies ourselves, one of the most shameful having to do with the climate:Despite the claims by men like Al Gore (who, by the way, has madeby spreading the hoax) and, most recently, Pope Francis, that "global warming is real" and it is caused by "Mankind's use of fossil fuels," there is no hard evidence to prove it – only theories. As such, that has caused the hoaxers to manipulate climate data in order to perpetuate the lie.In reality, the earth's average temperatures have not increased at all for about 19 years . But the mainstream media continues to report that the earthwarming, even going to the extreme of shutting off all debate about the issue, just to keep the climate hoax alive and well.
