Those conspiracies that are too incredible to be believed, are by the same right, those which most often succeed.

- Marshall McLuhan, philosopher

There are two views of history: (1) History happens by accident or (2) It is planned. The general public is taught that history happens by accident. However, the upper echelons... know that history is planned.

- R.E. McMaster, Jr. Educator

An identitfying characteristic of the super-state is its readiness to conceal from the people facts which might make them restless. In order to maintain power its officials must keep the populace believing that it is living in the best of all possible worlds.

-- Jim Garrison, lawyer

Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities

- Voltaire

"We spread disproportionate terror and confusion in the public mind, arbitrarily linking the unrelated problems of terrorism and Iraq. The result, and perhaps the motive, is to justify a vast misallocation of shrinking public wealth to the military and to weaken the safeguards that protect American citizens from the heavy hand of government."

Quote from the resignation letter of U.S. Ambassador John Brady Keisling resignation letter Feb. 27, 2003.

"Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have." - Richard Salent, former pres. CBS News


"The news and truth are not the same thing."

~~Walter Lippmann

"News is what someone wants to suppress. Everything else is advertising."

- Rubin Frank, former president NBC News


"We tell the people what they need to know, not what they want to know."

- Frank Sesno, CNN News


CNN erases the dots in the News. So you cannot see the patterns of importance. The best way to reveal the many conspiracies backstage is to reconnect the dots in current events. CNN is a part of the great Anglo-American brainwashing machine. - Lenny Bloom
