    Cofty:

    I was referring to the desirability of the land. This isn't about USA being better or the center of the universe. So, you are arguing with yourself and I am not going to respond to any more of your posts.

    Please do not go off-topic as it is disrespectful to the original poster.

    Why do so many Americans think the world consists of USA and "miscellaneous"?

    Most of us don't travel nearly enough. It our defense though, an awful lot of us don't have/get any holiday time to speak of.

    We are being lied to for breakfast, lunch and dinner by the mainstream media. The question is why, and what for?

    LHG you said - " Europe is a very small place" while trying to make a faciful conspiracy theory about powerful forces in Europe plotting to take over the world seem less crazy.

    I was responding directly to your point so in what way was it off-topic?

    Apparently you were talking about landmass but again you are mistaken. The landmass of Europe is 3.9 milliion sq miles which is bigger than the USA.

    We used to own USA, it was too much trouble so relax we don't want it back thanks.

    I am not going to respond to any more of your posts - Grumpy LHG

    TD - Although I was partly joking there is a strong feeling in Europe that many Americans are willfully ignorant about the rest of the world. LHG's comment tends to reinforce that impression.

    Hi,

    I 've just watched on Utube Zeitguist Addendum and although some of it seems far fetched, you cannot fail to see that Governments, religions, big business decieve the masses daily, I now beleive in nothing that cannot be practically explained, everyone has their own agenda and no one can be trusted, except Sparlock, lol

    regards,

    1) New World Order (not 100% convinced, but it seems like the higher ups want people to stop thinking and following. I see in the US, the overall basic education system sucks. Teens graduate high school and can't balance a checkbook, budget properly, spell, read, think critically, etc. They know what the Kardashians are up too and who got Snooki pregnant, but if you ask the average kid to point to Kazakhstan or Djibouti on a blank map, you would get a blank stare. That's not just a stereotype. There are some very brilliant students, but I find more followers than thinkers. Teachers and instructors just as clueless on the subject and teaching skills are horrendous. Technology is handicapping people mentally. Remember having to remember phone numbers? Or understand a map? Not needed anymore. No thinking involved. It's quite dangerous. Now they have BABY apps on Ipad. Yes, for BABIES. Technology helps, but it's hurting in important ways. I just feel it's part of a conditioning. Don't think. Just accept and follow accordingly. You need a college education just to understand basic concepts.

    2) Weapons testing - I'm not fully convinced, but I would NOT be suprised if it was an exposed fact.

    3) Surveillance, espionage, and intelligence agencies - I worked for security years ago in a global banking firm. The technology we had at our disposal was mind boggling (for me at least). I could only imagine the government. I read about technology NOW mainstream that government had 20+ years prior.

    4) DTV has 'big brother' status - I believe information is sold to big business to be used for marketing demographics. Nothing more, nothing less.

    5) Many diseases have man-made origins - Not a biologist, so according to reasearch of others' conclusions, it has been stated diseases such as HIV have a man-made DNA origin.

    6) Governments spread these diseases - Population control and testing contaminated air.

    7) Big Pharma concealing cures for conditions and diseases - A few natural items thought to cure certain ailments become illegal. IE apricot seeds.

    8) Illuminati - I guess like a club. Nothing too crazy I don't think. But i see it becoming more prevalent and highly publicized in mainstream media.

    9) Space landing - if the usa revealed they DIDN'T land first, what do they have to lose? That's why I think this can be an elaborate cover up.

    10) 9/11 - Self explanatory

    Note: Some of these would take an elaborate and time consuming cover up, but those involved could be under the mind control of high - powered groups today, so it's not impossible because of the tedious work that has to be done. Pshychologists can plant false memories in people's mind, etc.

    Anyway, I am not overly concerned about such things, but I do wonder about a lot, which is why I guess I am cynical right now.

    Though I have read up on these theories, I am NOT an expert on any of these subjects, I recognize I have more research to do.

    Don't bust my chops. I'm a larvae apostate. My studying period will be my cocoon. Then I will become a beautiful moth. (I didn't feel comfortable typing that last one)

    Nambo,

    You will have to be more specific, (though of course both sides will consider the other idiots).

    No, I really don't, however it did make me chuckle that you think I should be more specific when you throw out the following gem without any specifics at all!

    For instance, any body who belives the BBC,s "reason" for N.O.R.A.D. failing to intercept the 911 planes, namely that "they flew the wrong way because they thought the Russians where coming", is to me, demonstrating idiocity beyond belief.

    So, fancy actually providing any source for your comment?

    I work from the basic assumption that everyone lies whenever they see a personal benefit and feel they can get away with it. I also assume that anyone with power over another person be it financial or physical will exploit that relationship to maximise their benefit. This I believe drives patriarchal society's misuse of women. There are a few individuals who go against the grain. Very few.

    Quick test: You stumble upon a bank robbery in progress. The vault is open, there are no cameras and you know that the robbers are currently elsewhere. You have ten minutes and a door to a deserted part of town is next to you. The bank vault is full of used bank notes. There are millions of dollars available. Do you take money? The bank is currently undergoing investigation for massive fraud and has been cited as the most corrupt bank in the country. Now do you take the money? You were recently defrauded by this bank. Now?

    Using the assumption that corruption occurs where possible (check number of affairs, thefts, corporate scandals etc.) and then ask yourself how often the governmnet hides information from its citizens. Ask yourself if politicians are honest or whether they are skilled in the art of saying dishonest things (especially when it comes to promises or statements on their opponents records.)

    The assumption I have is that conspiracies happen regularly. I think we invaded Iraq on a massive conspiracy (my friend left the army because a year before the invasion he watched them paint battletanks in desert colours.) I think Hitler became leader after conspiracy (Reichstag fire). I think certain groups within the US government cut deals with Taliban leaders or drug cartels to get information or influence. I think the normal mode of operation in government is to act in secret and present a different story to the public.

    1 - Moon landings - while something definately went there I am less convinced by the photos. They seem staged in the extreme. Some seem impossible for a chest mounted camera without viewfinder and operated by gloved hands. Some things seem very odd (one astronaught dropped a picture of his family onto a well lit area of the moon surface - I'll explain why that's suspicious if anyone wants to know). The lunar lander doesn't seem to have the requiste power to lift the ascent module back into orbit and I'm not certain how the moon mounted camera was able to track upwards as it ascended. It would be odd if the US govt. was totally open about what was largely a military project at the height of the cold war. I also suspect it wouldn't have wanted to show shoddy pictures.

    2 - Financial - I think corrupt people are taking money all the time. Our labour is constantly being stolen. The banks current situation is a prime example (they should not be getting our future tax money as a forced investment.)

    Anything reported to an American audience with a British accent is believable.
