Conspiracy
Theory or Conspiracy Nut?
by Viesta Morrison

When I was a kid, a
million years ago, I can
remember
sitting
in my elementary catholic
school class, they announced
over the loud speaker that
our President JFK had just
been shot in downtown
Dallas; we needed to bow our
head in prayer. Of course,
by the time I was 14, I had
long stopped praying and had
started looking for answers
to questions that did not
seem to get answered! I
wondered, were the adults
that spoke about rumors just
gossiping, or was John
Kennedy actually murdered,
was he out of control with
his affairs with other
women, did the CIA decide
enough was too much, and
they were in fact on that
grassy knoll that day in
Dallas. No one ever proved
this theory of course, so it
will forever be running
amuck in the rumor mill!
But there have been other
questions I have asked over
the years as I got older. I
found it just too convenient
that Janis Joplin, Jimi
Hendrix and Jim Morrison all
died within months of one
another. Not wanting it to
be what I was reading and
hearing at the time, I once
again turned to what the
underground of the time was
saying.
That our government, the
USA had taken them out, a
small group of vocal youth
of the times, in fact, my
heroes! Those of us who
remember the late 1960s and
early 1970s
well
know
that the period was marked
by more than the Vietnam
War, peace protests, and the
rock and drug culture
(although the last
phenomenon listed partially
contributed to the trend I
am about to discuss). For
those of us who were in
adolescence it was our
introduction to the shock of
seeing celebrities we had
grown to love, emulate, or
simply had grown up with
suddenly topple over one by
one like a gruesome row of
dominoes.
My personal hero was
Janis, I could not listen to
her music enough. I heard
her voice and I was there,
standing beside her on the
beaches of Padre Island
Texas, wanting to escape,
pack up and be free. Her
voice gave me a freedom I
had never felt before, I
believed and felt in every
word she sang. For me that
summer came and began fading
to autumn.
Like two shots echoing in
the night Jimi Hendrix and
Janis Joplin were no more,
their music and voices
stilled, leaving their brief
legacy behind in short
stacks of vinyl and a few
reels of film.
Then 1971 came and
crawled slowly along in the
manner that years tend to
pass for the very young. I
was out with friends every
night, enjoying the beach,
the long days of surfing,
yeah, even the drugs we did,
the generation that had so
much to live for and so
little time to live it. The
noise of graduation parties
and post-graduation parties
filled the air, competing
with the sound of private
fireworks displays. Not long
after, like a disturbing
flash of de ja vu, the news
was reported: Jim Morrison,
lead singer of The Doors,
was found dead in a bathtub
by his girlfriend -- a drug
overdose victim (friends
insist it was a heart
attack) at the incredibly
young age of 27. Morrison,
originally a poet before
being persuaded to join his
famed rock band, was the
most prolific of the three
rock superstars who had died
in the space of only ten
months. I was in shock, I
was really depressed. I did
not know these people in
person, yet they were with
me every day in my head.
So again, a new
conspiracy theory grew in my
mind and one that became
aware of and lived everyday,
I would grow to understand,
I would not put anything
pass my own American
Government. People asked me
with stern discontent, when
I asked. Was it possible the
government killed Jim
Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and
Janis Joplin ? And if so,
why? I think the government
had files on them just like
they had on John Lennon.
It has never been news
that the Government of the
US is paranoid, even as
paranoid as the very people
they marked as being insane.
It was said that Jim, Jimi
and Janis all belong to a
new group that has sprung up
in the late 60s, a new
political power that wanted
to be more open, a form a
new government.
During the 1960’s and
into the early 70’s there
was a change sweeping the
nation and indeed the world.
This change was both musical
and cultural. People
were protesting for equal
civil rights, the women’s
movement was taking hold and
the musicians were
advocating for a more
peaceful and equal world.
Among the musical icons of
this time were Janis Joplin,
Jimi Hendrix and Jim
Morrison.
So influential and
controversial was there
music that their mysterious
deaths all at the age of 27
are surrounded by conspiracy
theories. One of these
theories is that all three
were killed by the CIA and
FBI because of there
connections and support of
the New Left movement that
was taking hold. So
influential were these three
artists that countless books
have been written about
them, nearly all of them
making mention to the
inconsistencies in their
early deaths.
One book specifically
outlining the theory that
they were all killed by U.S.
government agencies called
The Covert War against
Rock. The
following sites explore the
various conspiracies
regarding these three rock
and roll icons both in
support of them and
contradicting them.
So as rock & roll artist
could have been taken out by
our government, whose to say
our same government could
not have created 9/11, how
do we know it is just not a
lot of hype, propaganda? I
have asked a lot of
questions in the 6 plus
years since it all happen. I
get a lot of the same
questions answered the same.
In the weeks before 9/11,
the U.S. received warnings
from all over the world that
an event just like this was
about to happen, but FBI
investigations into
suspected terrorists were
suppressed and those
warnings were deliberately
disregarded.
The twin towers could not
have collapsed as a result
of burning jet fuel. Most of
that fuel was consumed on
impact. In the south tower,
most of the fuel was spilled
outside the building. Heat
caused by burning jet fuel
does not reach temperatures
needed to melt steel. What
does stand out as
particularly suspicious and
still unexplained is that
fires raged out of control
beneath THREE of the
collapsed towers for ONE
HUNDRED DAYS, clearly
indicating the presence of
some kind of substance
utilized in the demolition
of the structures. FBI
Director Robert Mueller
insisted officials had no
idea this kind of attack
could happen when in fact
the FBI had been
investigating the
possibility of EXACTLY this
kind of attack for almost
TEN YEARS. Numerous previous
attempts at using planes as
weapons, intimate knowledge
of terror plans called
Project Bojinka, and
knowledge of suspicious
characters attending flight
schools who were being
monitored by the FBI make
his utterance a clear lie on
its face.
Consider just a few more
of the other unanswered
questions from among the
thousands of unexplained
loose ends that all point to
9/11 being an inside job.
Who
benefited from the
suspiciously high
numbers of put
options purchased
prior to September
11 for shares in
companies whose
stock prices
subsequently
plummeted, on the
supposition that
whoever was behind
the hijacking was
also behind most of
the purchases of
these put options?
And what was the
role of the new
executive director
of the CIA, Buzzy
Krongard, who
handled these
transactions?
Why
was the debris from
the collapsed Twin
Towers removed from
the site with no
forensic
examination? Why was
almost all of it
sold to scrap
merchants and
shipped abroad where
it would not be
available for
scientific
examination?
Why
does the government
refuse to release
any transcripts of
communications or
any records at all
relating to signals
of any form
transmitted by those
jets?
Why
did so many people,
from San Francisco
Mayor Willie Brown
to many employees of
companies in the
World Trade Center
who failed to come
to work that day,
know in advance that
something bad was
going to happen on
Sept. 11, 2001?
Why
do all the major
U.S. media continue
to act as if none of
these questions is
legitimate or
relevant?
Today, millions of people
around the world are
protesting the criminal
destruction of the nation of
Iraq. But these protests
won't change the number of
minds necessary to stop
America's criminal madmen
from continuing with their
genocide aim of enslaving
the entire world.
What WILL stop them is
spreading the realization
that President George W.
Bush and his billionaire
accomplices in the oil
industry perpetrated 9/11 as
an excuse to begin the
militarization of America
for the purpose of world
conquest. By telling the
truth when the history is
written, not the way they
want us to believe their
version of lies. To make
sure that people who want to
be seen as heroes, are in
fact seen as the villains
they are. Do not allow
history to be written of how
everyone wanted us taken
down for they were jealous
of our freedom, when in fact
it was the USA that hungered
for more power, more oil
resources and just more.
Would I put anything pass
my government in the USA?
Not for a one bent second!
I am Viesta, I am out!
