Deep History Timeline

So at long last, the timeline has finally been transferred over to its own dedicated site, deephistory.us. I've also now finished the 1980's section of the timeline.

As U.S. economy is deregulated, corporate malfeasance multiplies and the stock market roars ahead only to suffer catastrophic collapse. With little regard for international law, the U.S. continues to intervene militarily in the Middle East and Latin America. Right-wing think-tanks spring into existence at an unprecedented pace.

I hope you have a decent amount of storage space on your webserver.

You're going to need it...

Nice summary of the 80's.From Romero to Iran Contra very thorough.Can't wait for more.

The 1990's section of the timeline is now complete. The year 1990 alone contains some real doozies:

*Public support for an invasion of Iraq is ambivalent until the widely publicized testimony of "Nurse Nayirah" who describes seeing Iraqi soldiers take premature babies from their incubators in a Kuwaiti hospital and leave them to die. Nayirah, whose full identity it is said must be kept secret for the safety of her family, turns out to be the Kuwaiti ambassador's daughter. Her entire story is fake, and she has received coaching from the U.S. public relations firm Hill & Knowlton, for which they are paid $10 million.

*A grand jury is convened to investigate charges that Larry King is running a child prostitution ring for elite clients. King is declared incompetent to stand trial while children who were prepared to testify against him are intimidated by the FBI. Investigator Gary Caradori is killed along with his eight-year-old son when their plane mysteriously breaks apart over Illinois. Various other witnesses and family members of witnesses also "commit suicide".

*In Belgium, two F-16 fighter jets are scrambled to chase down triangular UFOs. The UFOs are confirmed by radar from both the ground and the jets and are witnessed by over 13,500 people. The jets are unable to catch up with the UFOs.

Then there's Waco, OKC, and the WTC bombing; PNAC, Plan Colombia, NAFTA & the WTO; the most massive human slaughter since WWII that nobody really cares about; Heaven's Gate & the Phoenix Lights; and let's not forget the James Bond of Al-CIA-duh: Ali Mohamed. Some seriously sinister business was going on in the 90's, and a lot of it was right the face of anyone who bothered to look.

Unfortunately, Wikipedia is not a source. It is politically edited, bias, and user redundant not to mention just plain wrong. In the first 2 paragraphs of the 'Bay of Pigs' in Wikipedia there are 5 major errors.

Find a real source for footnotes as even a child knows wikipedia is not an accurate history source.

Feel free to improve it then. Correct the mistakes you find and back them up with reputable citations.

At long last, the decade of the 2000's is done...

The pivotal event for American politics at the dawn of the 21st century was 9/11. The attacks were used to justify two major wars and several smaller military interventions along with an unprecedented attack on civil liberties within the U.S. and the rapid escalation of police state measures. In the following years a mountain of evidence accumulated showing that the official narrative of 9/11 cannot be true. An anthrax attack and the appearance of several new diseases further contributed to an atmosphere of fear and tension in America. Meanwhile corporate crime and corruption reached levels unseen since the onset of the Great Depression and, just as had been the case then, a massive economic crash was the result. Sickened by these events, Americans elected a Democratic candidate promising hope and change. Little did the majority of the public know, but Barack Obama would continue and even expand upon many of the same hated neoconservative policies of the Bush administration. Those who looked deeper, however, were not surprised given that Obama was mentored by Zbigniew Brzezinski, author of the imperialist manifesto The Grand Chessboard.

If anyone has any suggestions for additions or corrections, they are more than welcome as always. The next thing I'll be working on is filling in a lot of events from the 40's through the 90's that I missed the first time around.
