Notice the 2 or 3 firey explosions by the Tesla's last week. You think that's random? They can control cars. Not saying that all deathly crashes are controlled by the CIA, but they can do it. I think the Fast and Furious actor died by this because he had info on Haiti.

Quick story:

When I was much younger, I watched a trial of a man who believed, quite honestly, that witches were hexing his mother.  He described, from the stand, precisely how they accomplished that.  Quite a thing to sit there and listen to.

So he went to Sears (yes, it was awhile ago), bought a revolver, and killed five of the witches before they finally caught him.

Now I'm not suggesting that you are a modern-day John Bruno, but you do begin to worry me with the conspiracy theories.

Newly released video shows the CIA trying to kill an important person with Chinese telepathy satellites back in 2010.  Obviously this is when they were still working out the kinks.

Naw, that was nothing more than buffoonery.

Can you say, "UNSTABLE"?    SMH.

The best way to remain ignorant in this world is to call everything you haven't deeply studied a conspiracy theory. You give them all the means necessary to keep committing atrocities without even questioning it. They know their schemes are coming to the light, that's why they want to dissarm us using the poor children.

Not sure if there was a real video or if you are joking with me because the video is no longer available. That being said, you'd have thought the sound attacks on American ambassadors in Cuba was a "conspiracy theory" but it actually happened recently and is very concerning.

I probably want to put this thread to rest. Don't want to cause too much paranoia or dogma. I just wanted to see opinions on the crash from people who have experience. Thought it was interesting considering there's been an increase in military crashes recently.

I don’t see an increase.   Military mishaps seem to ebb and flow around the same rate per 100,000.

Military crash occurred when they occur, just like car crashes.  This particular one captured huge media attention, AND A PAYCHECK, for the camera owner.  This, like EVERY other military aircraft crash will get a high level of attention, a skilled group of subject matter experts assigned, a very thorough examination of the evidence, and a cause reported in due time.  It would not be beyond the realm of possibilities that the accident investigation team has already determined the cause.  When the formal investigation is completed, a report will be prepared, and issued.

The problem with this and the recent SWA fatal incident is that media floods all avenues with the initial story and then the internet warriors who are also aviation subject matter experts solve the incident before facts are known.
