Most over rated Government conspiracies?

What do you think are the most over rated Government conspiracies?
One that you think is either over blown or bs, etc....
Personally I think the idea that the Government delibaretly caused 9/11 is bs. Now I do think blowback may have a had a big effect and may have possibly been the Government's actions that set it in motion, but I don't think Government agents hijacked planes on 9/11 and made it happen. Also if that were the case I think some more evidence would possibly have come out by now.
That said, Tower 7 collapsing was pretty shady and it seems to have been ignored largely by the mainstream media.

Well, I'm not siding with the Government on this at all. Just saying there are some f-ing retarded Jihad religious people that think blowing themselves up and taking out enemies of their beliefs will get them a bunch of virgins in heaven or something.

True, but it was authorized by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the only thing that stopped it was JFK's veto. The fact that something like that was actually drafted up and authorized by some of the higher ups is kinda freaky.
For the record though, I don't think 9/11 was orchestrated by the US government.

Oh no, I totally agree. I don't think the US government had anything to do with blowing up the Twin Towers, too many people would have to have been in on it, where are the death bed confessions? I'm just pointing out the fact that the US government has done/planned out some seriously fucked up, tin foil hat shit in the past. So to think they aren't capable of doing something similar today is kinda silly IMO

blowback due to our involvement in the middle east, absolutely did the bush administration have knowledge about 9/11? somewhat, they didnt know exactly what, when or where because as the FBI said "it wasnt within their scope of power to investigate it" when they were given the tip

it's not shady, steel is weakened by 50% at 800F, the construction of the building had 4 major load supports, nearly all f the building' weight was on those 4 trusses, those 4 trusses sat on a foundation smaller than the building's perimiter, when one of the trusses initially collapsed it forced the remaining 3 to carry the full load, something it wasnt designed to do.
there's a lot of bullshit surrounding the collapse of WTC7, a lot of myth spread by people claiming to seek the truth, most based off what they perceive to be the truth without even beginning to look deeper, only looking for more shit that they believe solidifies their 'case' and any time facts are presented they decide to attack those presenting the facts

not quite, they try and shift the blame to someone other than who was responsible, generally the government, they dont attempt to make any sense of it, they simply blame government and then try and piece all they can together to show the government's involvement, with 9/11 there's no less than a dozen 'theories' that include a space based death ray, a nuke planted under the buildings and of course the controlled demolition theory that doesnt pan out because there's simply no evidence showing this, it's all speculation based on outward appearances

yea that'll only take another 50 years. just like the ufo case files. it doesn't mean any "truth" will come out. just some more facts.
will we be able to piece together any "truth" from these facts? we haven't with the ufo case files so far.
conspiracy theories attempt to formulate connections based in both (usually misinterpreted) facts and biased opinions.
nobody knows what really happened way back when whatever. it was a collaborative project, obviously. so no 'one person' can have all the answers. especially if they weren't even involved

Operation Northwoods was much more than just one of their "war games" or "simulations" It was a straight up proposal that was one step away from becoming reality. And what about all the freaky shit the CIA has been involved with? You know like the stuff that actually happened......
MK Ultra? And all the other freaky shit they did with LSD?
Their involvement in the heroin trade/helping other groups traffic drugs?

alex jones is an example of someone who has "all the documents" you can think of, and more.
does he have any truth? absolutely not. only assumptions. and lots of "documents"
documents prove nothing other than the proof of the document. what actually happened? documents can be altered and manipulated. especially "released documents"

I think the JFK Conspiracy's are the most over rated.
Security was so terrible that any idiot could of done it. Lots of people had motive.
9/11 is more interesting because it caused a war on terrorism in which a lot of people made money from. A muslim terrorist organization in Afghanistan staffed by Saudi Arabians supposedly carried it out over "trade disagreements"? They fought the Soviets they must of known the consequences. They were not lone nutcase's they were a military type organization with leadership structure's. It just makes little sense to me. But after seeing their level of fanaticism while the war was ongoing with suicide bombing's and a war on it's own people at time's, they may have just been a perfect storm of bad luck for the USA.
Either way it's more interesting to ponder that it could of been a shadow society of wealthy banker's trying to prop up the economy or get rid of certain Arab country's so that we could use their resources.
A lot of people had motive to create a war between the Middle East and the USA. Israel for one.
JFK conspiracy, much more simple and boring.

don't get me wrong. i love conspiracy theories. even the unfounded shitty ones. it fascinates me how the human imagination can conceive such scenarios that may or may not actually be reality
added paranoia just makes the conspiracy all the more interesting. and fun!

I think the human brain is the best proof of a creator. If you follow the evolution theory the string of events that turned what started as amino acids into complicated beings that humans are, with brains that are faster more complicated, and more perfect than any computer will ever be, seems to shout design to me. I think many answers to the most fundamental questions we have can be found in our brains

How many people are involved in that scenario? First off the crew who laid the dynamite. Thats not something that got done in 45 minutes so pre knowledge is essential. So how many people knew ahead of time? Thats the soft conspiracy theory that they just had pre knowledge, the hard one is the government planned the whole thing. That would involve another few hundred people. The accident investigators, how many on that team? More than a hundred. The 9-11 commision, all in on it. At what point do you say this not possible? People rat on the mafia under threat of having their kids killed, yet no one, not one person has admitted to being part of this conspiracy of 1000's of men? I don't believe in conspiracies that require the silence of so many people. If you do a job with 3 people and you want to keep it quiet after you shoot the other two. Every criminal group on earth knows this. It's not possible for a thousand people to keep quiet about a mass murder.

9/11 was a great opportunity for the government to exploit tragedy and give itself more power. I think we can all agree on that.

Security was so terrible that any idiot could of done it. Lots of people had motive.
9/11 is more interesting because it caused a war on terrorism in which a lot of people made money from. A muslim terrorist organization in Afghanistan staffed by Saudi Arabians supposedly carried it out over "trade disagreements"? They fought the Soviets they must of known the consequences. They were not lone nutcase's they were a military type organization with leadership structure's. It just makes little sense to me. But after seeing their level of fanaticism while the war was ongoing with suicide bombing's and a war on it's own people at time's, they may have just been a perfect storm of bad luck for the USA.
you're kinda right, this wasnt about trade agreements, it was about the US foreign policy, the interventionist policy we've been working on since the 50s, we've put half the leaders in the mid east in power so they'd do for us, after the first gulf war we continued bombing Iraq through the clinton administration, we had santions and embargoes placed against iraq and other arab nations while funding their enemies
9/11 was far from the first attack on the US, it was one in a long series of attacks that include a 1993 WTC bombing, the USS Cole, several attacks on embassies and military bases. much of what's in the patriot act was passed through the 90s

Either way it's more interesting to ponder that it could of been a shadow society of wealthy banker's trying to prop up the economy or get rid of certain Arab country's so that we could use their resources.
wars dont actually support economies, we saw that under bush

not really, the US was in vietnam since the 50s, in 62 we were sending in more 'advisors', we were already in vietnam, the tonkin resolution allwed for an escalation in troop numbers but the propaganda from both sides show that this incident was in fact both sides participating in the escalation of events

Mostly the fourth amendment. IF you are suspected of being a terrorist the government can essentially do whatever they want to you. Hold you without trial, search your person and home, tap your calls, invade your privacy to an even greater extent than they already do to the average American. Where do you draw the line on what is or is not considered a threat to America? You know damn well you and I are both on that list right now. Just because of the way we feel about handguns and the 2nd amendment. If and when they decide to round up guns across the country, people outspoken against gun control are going to become the new "terrorists" and threat to our government. And you know damn well they will use those Patriot act and ND(fill in the blank) bills against all that threaten to stop them.
It's a modern day witch hunt. Based on the accusation of another they could potentially come in and destroy your life and hold you without any proof of terrorist activity. If you are a threat to somebody in a very high profile position this is the perfect way to silence somebody and put them away for life. This couldn't of been done very easily before 911. Now they can throw you in a cell and not let you speak to anybody until your trial which isn't to be expected anytime soon and will be done in private anyway.
What about the implementation of the TSA? Are you telling me they don't step over their bounds constitutionally speaking? I know you'll probably come back come back saying "if you want to fly on their planes, then you have to abide by their rules" which is fine and justifiable to an extent. But like any federal program I'm sure it will just keep growing until you are searched at train stations, bus stations, you name it. Which is essentially the whole purpose of the fourth amendment was put in place to begin with. I would consider than "unreasonable".

Simple solution: don't be a terrorist and the government will leave you alone. Seems pretty straight-forward and simple to me.

except for one thing, that's false. a terry stop allows for a search of someone's person, it's a weapons check that allows them to pat you down for their safety, it's been in effect for decades, NYC is catching a lot of controversy for the same thing only it's called 'stop and frisk'

the beauty of air transportation, you dont have to fly and if you dont fly you dont have to be subjected to the TSA searches, you agree to them when you buy a plane ticket so what you've done is relinquished to right to not have your person and carry on luggage checked before boarding a flight, I dont fly because I wont support public funds providing private security for air ports. none of it is unconstitutional and you have no right to travel by any particular means such as air

Now I do think blowback may have a had a big effect and may have possibly been the Government's actions that set it in motion, but I don't think Government agents hijacked planes on 9/11 and made it happen. Also if that were the case I think some more evidence would possibly have come out by now.
That said, Tower 7 collapsing was pretty shady and it seems to have been ignored largely by the mainstream media.

No oh wait... You act as though Operation Northwoods happened. It didnt. It was made up by a military man and it was not surprisingly rejected by the civilian government. Your evidence supports the opposite of your point. Operation Northwoods is evidence that our civilian government can and does reject military false flag operations.

As far as false flags go The Bay of Tonkin incident was confirmed to be a false flag in the wikileaks documents. Thats pretty much why congress OK'd the go to Vietnam. I don't think it's that outrageous that the government could have done something like that again.

Any bad event that makes it to the media is considered by some conspiracy theorist to be staged, it's like they can't comprehend that bad people exist who don't work for their blame man of choice.

I think something suspicious did go down on 9\11, and I am a conservative we also thought 911 pessimists were unpatriotic scumbags. Something just doesn't add up tho..

Nope, not different; just a different angle. The other photo shows fairly clearly the part found on Murray St.: the compressor and front of the combustor section. It's near the center of this diagram:
