Who exactly is this Alex Jones who is the source for much of teo's conspiracy claims.

Here's a 3 minute video of Alex on his talk radio program

If after you've watched this you're saying to yourself "that sure is similiar to something else I've seen on tv but just can't quite place it",
then you have good observation powers. Because what that is is a ranting, raving, firebrand tv evangelist. And the only difference is
"the devil" has been replaced with "the new world order".

If you found that video to be entertaining, then here's one which was prepared by Alex Jones himself.
The other one was anti-alex and this one is pro-alex. Don't ever let it be said that ButtBob is not a fair youtube linker.

It's a confrontation between Alex and Michelle Malkin which happened in the street outside the 2008 Democratic Convention. It erupted into a pushing and shoving match.

After I watched this one, I realized that this video captures more than anything I've seen yet what has become of the political dialogue in our country.

And now the last video. My favorite.

"American televangelist Pat Robertson with his 1991 best-selling book The New World Order became the most prominent Christian popularizer of conspiracy theories about recent American history as a theater in which Wall Street, the Federal Reserve System, Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderberg Group, and Trilateral Commission control the flow of events from behind the scenes, nudging us constantly and covertly in the direction of world government for the Antichrist"

from wiki

In a review of this book, Ephraim Radner writes that "Lind and Heilbrun show how Robertson took over—in some cases word for word—well-worn theories of a Jewish conspiracy. In particular, Robertson relied on the work of Nesta Webster and Eustace Mullins."

Robertson's tome was described as a 'catch all for conspiracy theories' by Christian academic Don Wilkey:

A summary of Robertson’s book is found on page 177 in which Pat says a conspiracy has existed in the world working through Freemasonry and a secret Order of the Illuminati, a group combining Masons and Jewish Bankers.

"I would warn Orlando that you're right in the way of some serious hurricanes, and I don't think I'd be waving those flags in God's face if I were you, This is not a message of hate -- this is a message of redemption. But a condition like this will bring about the destruction of your nation. It'll bring about terrorist bombs; it'll bring earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor."

-- Pat Robertson, on "gay days" at Disneyworld

"(T)he feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."

-– Pat Robertson

"It may be a blessing in disguise. ... Something happened a long time ago in Haiti, and people might not want to talk about it. Haitians were originally under the heel of the French. You know, Napoleon the third, or whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, we will serve you if you will get us free from the French. True story. And so, the devil said, okay it's a deal. Ever since they have been cursed by one thing after the other."

-– Pat Robertson, on the earthquake in Haiti that destroyed the capital and killed tens of thousands of people, Jan. 13, 2010

So whats not true about this statement? Who was talking for the Haitians? That's the guy that has some explaining to do. Maybe no one did. I guess they just had a nation wide meeting or vote. Topic for this weeks vote "Deal with the Devil.Yes or no?"

I suppose anything's possible. And that at an earlier time someone speaking for the Haitians made a pact with the devil just so they could get out from under the heel of the French. And then in 2010 that deal caused God (or is it the devil) to punish them by killing thousands of them with an earthquake.
Just as it's also possible God will hit Orlando with a hurricane to punish everyone in Orlando because Disney has a "gay day".

In fact I'll be the first to admit that all that is as possible as the premise of Robertson's book that a secret world government called a New World Order controlled by the jews is running the world on behalf of the antichrist.
