Government Cover Up: A Blanket Over the Truth On the date of September 11, 2001 many stocks were sold and a large number of people took off just prior to the devastating attacks on the World Trade Center perpetrated by terrorists. This is just one large moment in history that it seems that a few inside people knew of an oncoming attack, or hid inside information for a cause. Many people will disagree with this, saying that the United States would not lie to their citizens or put them directly into harm’s way. Yet there is an abundance of evidence to prove that the U.S. lies to their citizens to brainwash them. There are many conspiracies that the information given by the United States was used to persuade the minds of the common citizen …show more content…

For instance after the Pearl Harbor attack, the government deemed that day very sad and depressing, but then proceeded straight into the war. The 9/11 attack was very much like the Pearl Harbor incident. The assassination of JFK found Lee Harvey Oswald guilty after tracking him to the sixth floor where the shots were fired from. The moon landing was said to be performed because of advancements in American technology. At the time, these were good excuses and proved to be worthy by persuading mass amounts of citizens. As time went on though, they were not as good at covering information as they once …show more content…

One of the most famous modern day conspiracies was the 9/11 attack. The 9/11 attack has numerous indications that it was planned. A large amount of shares were sold before the attacks happened suggesting inside traders knew of the attacks ("The 11 Most Compelling”). Also air defense was told to ‘stand down’ and we needed to start a “War on Terror” (THE TOP 40). There is another conspiracy that suggests that the JFK assassination was not fully solved. More than three shots were fired from what seemed like different locations (Bojczuk, Jeremy). Also, Oswald was a bad marksmen in the marines and had a low marine score (Bojczuk, Jeremy). The crime also was not fully investigated (Bojczuk, Jeremy). This evidence adds to the conspiracy and even makes people question why Jack Ruby assassinating Lee Harvey Oswald was not heavily

    During an interview of three family members, I was able to learn more information about the events of 9/11. My mom, Jamie Goldman, was the first person I interviewed. She told me she was helping a friend with her new business in Aiken, SC. She first heard on the radio, breaking news, that a plane had flown into one of the Twin Towers at the World Trade Center. Her first thought was that a plane had crashed accidentally. As the day went on, she learned of even more horrible acts against our country, and then realized our Nation was under attack from terrorist. My mom was heartbroken, scared, sad, and mad all at the same time. She struggles with forgiving the terrorist but knows that God would want her to forgive them. The song "God Bless the USA" is a song that helps my mom cope with the events of 9/11. My mom did not know anyone personally that was killed or injured on 9/11. She said, "after 9/11, our country has been a country at war. We have stopped loving our neighbors and instead, started judging them."

    Before the events of 9/11 the US had been attacked before and we were aware of possible threats. However, these threats, specifically those of Al-Qaeda were not taken seriously by American foreign policy makers or regular Americans alike, so on September 11, 2001 Americans were truly shocked by the scale of devastation and loss of life that occurred. The effect these attacks had on America was incredible. In the years that followed Americans became fearful and discriminatory of religious groups; the government created the Department of Homeland Security and enacted stricter search and seizure laws, and America’s foreign policy became defined by unilateral decision making and preemptive war.

    Conspiracy is a business that many people thrive on daily for their career. The number of theories associated with the John F. Kennedy assassination should show people that conspirators do not know the truth themselves. If there was one conspiracy that was proven a fact, there would be no need to continue making up others. The conspiracy theories of the assassination of John F. Kennedy do not show enough evidence to be considered fact.

    Has the United States government kept secrets from its citizens? Conspiracy theories have been posed throughout the history of our nation. A conspiracy theory is defined as “a theory that explains an event as being the result of a plot by a covert group or organization; a belief that a particular unexplained event was caused by such a group” (Dictionary). Is this an on-going theme in U.S. Government history? Many people believe that our government has purposely fabricated or withheld information regarding historical events; was the moon landing simulated, were service men murdered at Pearl Harbor, who really shot President Kennedy?

  • What Is The Fallacies In David Brudnoy's A Lot To Learn

    446 Words  | 1 Pages

    In a Boston Phoenix article published on September 6th, 2002, and entitled “A Lot To Learn,” David Brudnoy discusses the aftermath of 9/11. Brudnoy claims that Americans believed the impact of that disastrous day would bring even greater prosperity. He belittles the people of America as too desperate and too easily consoled by the government officials in New York and Washington D.C. after 9/11. Brudnoy believes that the phrase “war on terrorism” was not an accurate definition to use and that in fact our government should have taken action against all Muslims, not just Osama bin Laden and his minions. He further argues that Americans have taken for granted the changes since 9/11 and have tried to forget about the attacks. He opines that people have become too weak in the aftermath, living in constant fear of another terrorist

    Three shots. One national tragedy. On November 22nd, 1963, John F. Kennedy became the 4th president in our history to be assassinated. Kennedy was assassinated as he rode in a motorcade through Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas. This caused a national uproar and started a manhunt. Lee Harvey Oswald turned out to be the culprit and got sent to a prison where he would be immediately killed by Jack Ruby, a local nightclub owner in prison for murder. Many believe that Oswald was the one to gun down JFK, however many others have questioned what really happened on November 22nd, in downtown Dallas. This makes the JFK shooting one of the most interesting conspiracy theories to this day. Conspiracy (N.)- a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful. Many believe that Oswald could not have done this alone. Because of inconsistent witness testimonies, the single bullet theory and the CIA being involved, and lack of evidence make the JFK one of the controversial conspiracies to this day which in my opinion is true.

    ... missiles at us, and then a year later, JFK was killed. Many people still believe that Oswald did it out of spite, but since he had such a history with Cuba, Mexico, Russia/ Soviet Union, and the Marines such theories have emerged. Many of the high, “I would die if this was false” theorist think that the footage of JFK’s death was edited, others think that the originals were burned, and replaced. The most evidence of the conspiracy was after Oswald was killed by Jack Ruby, Jack was then arrested, for killing a man, but the man he killed had killed the president. Everyone would have suspected Ruby to be thanked by our nation, only to find out that he had been punished, for murdering a man. Now even Ruby is a part of the conspiracy. Still though how could our brains not be tempted to come up with something different (almost everything has a conspiracy to it) instead?

    On November 22nd, 1963, the thirty-fifth president, John Fitzgerald “Jack” Kennedy, was assassinated in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, TX. This event would later become one of the most infamous and discussed conspiracies of the century, sparking controversy across the nation. His shooter was an ex-marine, sharp shooter named Lee Harvey Oswald. Over the years, many government officials have pledged that President JFK’s death was a one-man job. However, researchers and theorists suspect that this was not the case due to sketchy coincidences and fragmented information they struggle to piece together. These have lead the public as well as some experts to believe and hypothesize their own conspiracies like the assassination being a more elaborate scheme or inside job.

    The idea that the United Stated government creates false pretenses and manipulates the American people to engage in a war that is supported has been an ongoing debate for a long period of time. The most notable war, perhaps, is the war in Iraq led by the G. W. Bush administration. Another notable war would be the Vietnam war led by the L. B. Johnson administration. I have always found people’s complex theories and assumptions extremely interesting, so I chose to watch “The Lies That Lead to War” with Charles Lewis.
