![]() Level: 1 CS Original | Nope. Indeed, Alex Jones is rarely right about anything. | |||||

![]() Paid Disinformation Blogger Level: 14 CS Original | How could a family start a war? *phone rings in the Oval Office, GWB answers* GWB: Hello? MR. ROTHSCHILD: Mr. Bush, we've had a family confab and we'd like you to start a war. Please invade Iraq. GWB: Yes, sir! Right away! *hangs up* | |||||

![]() Level: 12 CS Original | Muertos, a simplistic retort like the one above makes for a good chuckle, but it may cause more harm than good. CTers will read that and become even more confident in their beliefs because they'll think you aren't appreciating how possible this Rothschild connection could be. As much of a waste your time as it may be, creating a more elaborate parody would steal their thunder. This same sort of thing happens when debunkers claim that 9/11 couldn't have been planned by 10 people; rather, 100s or 1000s of people would've had to be in on it. Explanations have been made for how only a small number of people could've pulled it off. Telling those truthers it's improbable only makes it seem more probable to them. Again, it may not be worth it, however, to address each part of their theory of how 10 people could pull it off. | |||||

![]() Level: 1 CS Original | It's pretty much self-debunking. None of the CTers provide any evidence to support the claim. If you know of any primary sources, feel free to post references. | |||||

![]() President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho: porn star and five-time ultimate smackdown wrestling champion! Level: 150 CS Original | They've been making that claim for years, and before that it was made by people who wanted to prove Jews started all wars. There's been no evidence of it than simply claiming they have. Sort of like how George Humphrey went on and on in The Obama Deception about how every bad person ever was funded by the "bankers." Did he provide evidence? No, because it doesn't exist. | |||||

![]() Level: 3 CS Original | The Rothschild supervillains can start wars, but Nathan Mayer Rothschild, one of the richest men in the world in the early 19th Century, died in 1836 from an "abscess," apparently a bacterial infection which we can cure today with antibiotics costing a waitress's daily tip money. A lot of good his chests full of gold coins did him. | |||||

![]() Level: 9 CS Original | Whenever someone talks about the Rothschilds in this "super villain" context, I just imagine the stereotypical evil rich person: Scrooge McMoneybags, with monocle, top hat, spinning around the chair in his office while petting his pet feline. | |||||
