Of course all this about sources and what they say belongs on the talk page, but so far your replies there have been variations on "Nuh uh!" and "Is not!" Now you're reverting the sourced edits, simply because you don't like what the sources day, and your argument having failed on its merits, you've filled the talk page with specious objections, and now filed this complaint, hoping I guess to make it too costly and time consuming for people to work on the article. At least for this evening, you've succeeded. [[User:Tom harrison|Tom Harrison]] <sup>[[User talk:Tom harrison|Talk]]</sup> 04:27, 8 February 2012 (UTC) |

Re Mkativerata's comment below, from ''Conspiracy theories and Secret Societies for Dummies'', pg 95-96, here's the passage my edit summarizes: |
|||
:"The modern conspiracy theory and conspiracist mind-set, laid down in influential books and seeays, is relatively new, having grown up since the Frence Revolution of 1789, which was often blamed on the Jews and the Freemasons. This nicely illustrates that all conspriacy theories have grown out of hatred and fear of Jews, or hatred and fear of secret societies, initially the Fremasons(see Chapter 9). In fact, often both, because Freemasons were many times perceived as the willing tools of "World Jewry." |
|||
:"All conspiracy theories, right up to the present-day 9/11 ones, are the same recycled theories that grew from this original source. Only the names of the accused get changed. And if you accept this as being so, then it leads inevitably to the next logical question: Why the Jews?" |
|||
The author goes on: |
|||
"In the U.S., it isn't hard to sniff out the obsessive Jew baiting in many of the "alternative conspiracy theories" offered up the the "Truthers," for example, who believe that 9/11 was an atrocity commited by the government(see Chapter 8)." |
|||
Substantially similar points are made in Jonathan Kay's ''Among the Truthers''. The essential antisemitism of 9/11 conspiracy theories is well established. My edits, to the best of my ability, reflect the sources I cite. [[User:Tom harrison|Tom Harrison]] <sup>[[User talk:Tom harrison|Talk]]</sup> 20:14, 8 February 2012 (UTC) |
