Conspiracy Theories?

I was busy yesterday so didn't pay full attention but Alhumdolillah I have now read the fantastic responses especially by Maulana Yasin and Brother Abdur Rahman ibn Awf.

There is no doubt that the Western Media has a lot of Zionist Influence and also influenced by those in power (or rising in Power). Take the case in point of India vs Pakistan. India is a rising global power so there is no doubt that everyone visiting India considers it a duty to issue a statement against Pakistan and Media dutifully reports it.

In the 1980's Media was sympathetic to Afghanistan because the world powers wanted it. From 1995-2010 Media was extremely negative and critical of Afghanistan. From 2010 onwards the same Media is blasé about Afghanistan (no longer negative).

Rise of Donald Trump and his last Press conferences tells us why. Media relies on Access and the way Donald Trump (blatantly) went after CNN tells us why…It’s usually not that blatant but if the Media doesn’t toe the line, their access will be restricted or even curtailed.

So Zionist influence or Western influence or rising influence in the Media is not a conspiracy theory, it’s a reality.

Let’s now turn to 9/11.

9/11 lead to cataclysmic changes to the world order so whether the event itself was orchestrated OR not, it was very cleverly manipulated to lead the world into a certain direction. That is also not a conspiracy but factual.

What remains now is whether 9/11 was an inside job or not and that is a theory (conspiracy or not). Many Muslims support these theories after taking them from the likes of Alex Jones, David Duke etc…And Muslim Ulamah regularly quote them without even knowing these are extremely vile, racist and repugnant individuals. I admit that there are gaps in the official 9/11 narrative which remain unexplained.

There are many events in the world which were used to change policy or change doctrine and some of them naturally occurred while others were orchestrated.

The key question is how do you separate the wheat from the chaff? There is (indeed) a lot of disinformation out there and deliberately put out there to confuse people. Within this (overload) of information is also the truth. How do we distinguish it?

Simply saying that anything against mainstream is hogwash because a lot of stuff out by the likes of Alex Jones and co is garbage.

A lot of stuff put out by South African (Muslims) about Medicine etc is garbage.

A lot of stuff put out by Pakistani (Muslims) is garbage.

For a simple lay Muslim, how does he or she get to the truth? Don’t say follow the Ulama because a loft of their theories are debunked fantasies (like Bermuda Triangle).
