yes.
I must admit I am still not certain about the Moon Landing.
At the time in 69, I had no doubt it was true but what has happened since has made me wonder.
Certainly Kennedy. Three bullets from different weapons & Oswald acting alone? enough said.
9/11 - what seems possible is almost unthinkable. Could they really be that evil - just for an excuse to get more cash & oil?
Vietnam - insanity
Pearl Harbour - another 9/11?
Kyoto - what agreement? A joke as far as the US is concerned.
The Anthrax Letters - just to blame muslim extremists & encourage the view that the US should take action against Saddam?
The Red Indians - what red indians?
Monroe's suicide - did Robert & Jack tell her too much?
Blacks in America - keep em down, keep em poor but tell em they're equals & can live the American dream.
Poverty in the USA - doesn't exist under Bush does it?
Probably got carried away - is that more than 10 !!?

Actually, I'd like to point out, that it was not a single Genocide, but many!
6. Ethanol as a fuel- creating it uses more energy than it gives! It's only reason to excist is to artificially prop up the US farmers (yet again).
7.The "mobile chemical weapon research centers"- It is just ridiculuous that anyone could do serious research in the back of a truck!
8. The politics speeches- They are constructed to mislead! I remember a speech that GWB gave about Iraq's invovlement with Al Qaida- when asked directly he said "that there was no connection" but right after he was building a case of joining Iraq and Al Qaida together ideologically and make it SOUND like they were the best of friends, even while he had just denied any connection.
9. The War on Terror- There is no war on terror. What it basically comes down to the US military chopping the heads of a hydra and showing off the torn heads as successes, even though the heads have now doubled.
10. I personally think that all the conspiracy theories are used to marginalize those who question the official truth, even if there is a clear reason to. However, I doubt that the government is behind it.
----
All nations are built on Genocide? RIDICULOUS! I have to say this- the people that I am descended from migrated here as soon as the ice melted, so there hardly was a "genocide", unless you are referring to the polar bears and such who had to flee north as the climate got too warm.

I think Yahoo Answers is the perfect place for you conspiracy theorists to chat about ways big brother is looking in your underwear drawer for secrets. You have listed many American tragedies of unfortunate events and miscalculations but I have not seen anything like the Recent Vladamir Putin connection to murdering political enemies. Wake up. It's not that bad. We are not perfect but come on.

The greatest American lie has to be the phrase "Military Intelligence."
This is usually used in press conferences explaining how they blew up a nursing home instead of an armoury because they were using an old map.
It comes from the same phrasebook as their term "Friendly Fire." True enough, they do shoot an awful lot of people on their own side, but I feel the word "friendly" may be misleading.

All countries are built on genocide, theft and lies.
It would be very difficult to find any country that does not have that in it's history.
The only one on your list that I give any credence to is Kyoto but I am not sure what your stance is on it. I am betting we differ on why we think the Kyoto Accord is trash.

Another crazy conspiracy person. The moon landing was real. Get over it! I have sometimes thought about 9/11, but I am not going anywhere with this question.

Oh My God, only ten lies? Then they are very lucky that they haven't got Blair and his government running America, I have lost count of the lies that they have spouted since coming to power.
