Daniel Pipes traces conspiracy theories through history and convincingly shows how they have been used as common tools of mass manipulation in the West and have more recently cropped up in the Third World and among disempowered fringe groups. more

The assumption is made that there arent any Conspiracy FACTS, just theories. The author needs to do some reading...; read full review | report as inappropriate
