The Waco Raid resulted in grueling gun battle that lasted for almost three months, resulting in a questionable fire that killed and destroyed the Mount Carmel Center (Vleet). The controversial handling of this incident led to many political figures and American people to being to question and essentially attempt to “coverage” any information regarding the fire. According to biblical Scholar, James D. Tabor, regarding a press conferences after the Waco raid said the government “Demonized” the Waco cult leader, David Koresh, in an attempt to construct a justified image of what happened, never truly needing to add explanation on “who these people” who were killed where (Gezecki).

A specific example of such would be in the Gazecki documentaries when one man, BLAH, is describing how Winston Blake died where he “heard water running” and saw a “window shattered” which from the angle proves that the attack was from the sky as there we no “tall buildings surrounding the building. Another example would be in the video evidence provided in the Gazecki documentaries that proves a helicopter shooting a man on top of building trying to figure out “what is going on”, in the video provided by a news station is shows the man being shot by the helicopter; Latter in the video a 9/11 call reveals Steve Schneider stating that there are choppers firing at people, with sound of gun fire

In a night where the town people were out to enjoy the new release of “The Dark Knight Rises”, a person or a couple, decided to turn it into a deadly and unforgettable night for the moviegoers.

    Another perspective this attack has been challenged by some citizens of the United States accusing the U.S. government of planning this attack on its own people. CNN reporters have said they've interviewed people who were inside the building before the attacks. These people have claimed that they heard a large bang coming from the basement of the trade center about ten seconds before the actual plane hit the building. There are also conspiracies that the pentagon building was struck by a missile because the impact holes in the pentagon were much smaller than a commercial American Airlines plane. They also question why the plane was not shot down prior to impact, as well as why the plane impacted into a section of the Pentagon that was vacant due to renovations. U.S officials were instructed to find all cameras which could have caught image of the attack on the pentagon and to…

    In Benghazi, Libya, September 11, 2012, the United States consulate was attacked by terrorists affiliated with Al-Qaeda. Four brave Americans: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, and Glenn Doherty, were killed. The entire story of the incident has been very unclear; it seems the Obama Administration desires to cover it up. The American people, especially the families of the fallen, deserve to know the truth of the grievous assault against not only our consulate but also our country. That starts with the three main questions that need to be answered: what happened during the attack, who is responsible, and why is the Obama administration downplaying it.…
