Titanic Conspiracy!!

[bob_kark]

I was over on the LC forums after reading KTs thread and decided to peruse the "debate" section when I came accross Dylan Avery posting this drivel about the WTC:

How about the people who designed the WTC saying it was designed to withstand multiple (read: more than one) impacts from a 707?

I suppose he finally figured out there was quite a bit more energy released than the solo 707 flying in on approach through the fog that it was originally designed to withstand... Anyway, it made me remember another famous build that was designed to withstand quite a heavy impact and survive.

The Titanic!!

I was ready to prepare my own Titanic conspiracy theory with the same old, "unsinkable" claims, the book Futility, etc... when I found out that the Jesuits apparently conspired to sink the Titanic!

I was already aware of the insurance scam theory, but that wasn't ambitious enough apparently... Isn't there some point where a CTer looks at him/herself in a mirror and asks, "how f'n crazy am I?"

Yes, that point comes, but as a challenge, not a doubt. The question they ask is, “How much more effin’ crazy can I be?”

Let's not forget the Lusitania, sunk by the dastardly British to drag us into World War I.

Personally I suspect the French were behind Pearl Harbor. Cui bono?

Yeah? Well, I got news for you: the British were behind the American Revolution.

No, really!

If it was a British conspiracy, their darn lucky it worked. Americans could easily have gone the other way and condemned the British for using civilian passenger ships to transport military cargos. As far as the rules of war go, I think the Germans had the right to target her. As far as which side of World War One I was on, I generally side with, you know, the people NOT trying to take over the world.
