Las Vegas Music Festival Massacre

[Strontium Dog]

I notice that some survivors of the massacre were sadly killed recently in a car accident. Expect to see that one featuring in conspiracy theories in the near future.

So what's the conspiracy here? Was it the government, Joos, or aliens that did it?

Joint CIA and KGB ops. First of its sort for 'Soviet America' to keep the prols in the US afraid and in line.

No, the real conspiracy here is why it's taken YouTube internet conspiracy theorist so long to manufacture the kind of video evidence they can usually produce within an hour of the first news report.

A reporter talks with the two former government employees who have it all figured out: A joint operation of ISIS and antifa, facilitated by an Australian emigre who works in the entertainment industry. This contradicts truthful accounts laid out in videos previously posted in this thread ('it was the Israelis!!') but don't let that worry you. I'm sure these fellows are merely deep state operatives promoting a false false flag.

'Anatomy of a Conspiracy Theory'

In the sweaty, waning days of August, I went to a Cheesecake Factory in the Virginia suburbs to learn about a conspiracy that would rock the FBI, if true. The two men who met me for lunch, a retired CIA agent and a former National Security Council official in the Trump administration, were wearing shorts and flip-flops. Otherwise, they were all business, and utterly serious. “There’s substantial evidence that ISIS was involved in this,” the former NSC staffer told me, a few minutes after we had settled into our booth at the back of the restaurant.

He was referring to the worst mass shooting in American history, which happened last year in Las Vegas when Stephen Paddock killed 58 people and wounded more than 800 others at an outdoor concert. According to a final report issued by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department on August 3, Paddock’s motive was unclear, but he “acted alone” and had no links to “any hate group or any domestic or foreign terrorist organization.”

My two lunch companions believe otherwise. They belong to a small group of about a dozen members from the intelligence and special operations community pushing the theory that Paddock’s rampage was part of a coordinated anti-Trump plot involving the Islamic State and Antifa, or left-wing “anti-fascist” activists.

I know, it sounds nuts.

The idea sprang from the twisted, feverish mind of Infowars’ Alex Jones days after the Vegas attack. “They found Antifa information in the room,” Jones claimed in one telecast. “The whole thing has the hallmarks of being scripted by deep-state Democrats and their Islamic allies using mental-patient cutouts,” he said. Others of his ilk then amplified the unsubstantiated Antifa-ISIS allegations on social media in what became a frothy concoction of phony tweets, Facebook posts and YouTube videos.

The truth is we dont have clue what goes on in the world.

[Brian Peacock]

What? We have lots of clues. It was aliens in conjunction with the Israelis and the FSB.

Thanks to politico (and you) for giving those fucknuts even more air.

Multiple competing conspiracy theories... how doesn't Galaxian handle that sort of thing?

[laklak]

They're all true on a quantum level. Or not.
