Nothing happened at the Olympics, hence-

- The Gulf of Tonkin false flag did not happen
- Operation Northwoods did not exist
- Iran Contra is make believe
- Fast and Furious is just a movie
- The CIA never created Al Qaeda
- The West saved the Libyan people from Gaddafi
- etc
This seems to be the mentality on this forum. Just because people were wrong on the 'Olympic conspiracy', does not undermine the truth of other events.
There are good reasons people believed an attack during the Olympics was going to happen-
- False flags are hardly something TPTB would refrain from using
- Music, TV shows, security problems reported in the MSM, there was a lot of concern going into the Olympics that 'something' was going to happen.
Put two and two together and it's easy to see how I and many others were misled. But this does not undo everything else. Sadly, it will do so because many people put all 'conspiracies' into the same pile.
Hindsight makes it easier to see that a false flag at the Olympics was too early- TPTB have to get rid of Assad before tackling Iran (which is something I and a few others did question). The false flag is set to be blamed on Iran, hence it was too early to come at the Olympics with Assad still strong in Syria.
I bought into the conspiracy, but I can learn from it. This is a conspiracy forum and people are set on ridiculing 'conspiracy theorists'- what chance do we have in trying to get people to see the truth if this is the response on a site for conspiracy theorists?!!
Does the idea that TPTB had invested into this conspiracy and fueled it to discredit conspiracies in general sound so ridiculous now? Millions of people have access to the truth via the internet so it is only natural TPTB would combat this with disinfo and false conspiracies. It is them adjusting. I would say consider this, and learn from it.

Most people are smart enough to know the difference between what is going on in the ME and an Olympic Conspiracy theory. Not all as we saw on ATS. But the majority here do have some critical thinking ability. That's what the Olympic theories seem so absurd to the majority.

How so? We just put on one of the best attended, well supported Olympics in recent history. I don't believe the rest of the world saw us being boring, anything but.
