History Conspiracy

Some truths are buried for a reason. Some names should never be spoken. A historian uncovers an erased Surah hidden deep in ancient Islamic texts—one that speaks of a 19th Zabaniyya, a guardian who was exiled for showing mercy. Her discovery should have been impossible. The text should not exist. And yet, the moment she speaks the lost name aloud, reality begins to fracture. Time glitches. The city bends. Strangers look at her as if they have always known her. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes—she isn’t just uncovering history. She is history. A shadowed past clawing its way ...

'Are you happy in your life?' Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious. Before he wakes to find himself strapped to a gurney, surrounded by strangers in hazmat suits. Before the man he's never met smiles down at him and says, 'Welcome back, my friend.' In this world he's woken up to, Jason's life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible.

In Witch Hunt, Gregg Jarrett uncovers the bureaucratic malfeasance and malicious politicization of our country’s justice system. The law was weaponized for partisan purposes. Even though it was Hillary Clinton’s campaign that collected and disseminated a trove of lies about Trump from a former British spy and Russian operatives, Democrats and the media spun this into a claim that Trump was working for the Russians.

In 2007, a short blogpost by Gawker Media outed PayPal founder and billionaire investor Peter Thiel as gay. Thiel's sexuality had been known to close friends and family, but he didn't consider himself a public figure, and believed the information was private. This post would be the casus belli for a meticulously plotted conspiracy that would end nearly a decade later with a $140 million dollar judgment against Gawker and its bankruptcy. Only later would the world learn that Gawker's demise was not incidental - it had been masterminded by Thiel.

And now there seems to be a traitor in their midst.

Michael Shermer presents an overarching review of conspiracy theories—who believes them and why, which ones are real, and what we should do about them. Trust in conspiracy theories, he writes, cuts across gender, age, race, income, education level, occupational status—and even political affiliation. One reason that people believe these conspiracies, Shermer argues, is that enough of them are real that we should be constructively conspiratorial. But Shermer reveals that other factors are also in play: anxiety and a sense of loss of control, as well as certain personality traits.

What if everything we thought we knew about history was wrong? From the global best-selling author of Empire, The Ascent of Money and Civilization, this is a whole new way of looking at the world. Most history is hierarchical: it's about popes, presidents, and prime ministers. But what if that's simply because they create the historical archives? What if we are missing equally powerful but less visible networks-leaving them to the conspiracy theorists, with their dreams of all-powerful Illuminati?

When she tries to remember, severe headaches block out most of it. Glimpses. Bits and pieces. But she has long bouts of fitful dreaming too that last so long that sometimes she wakes up days later . . . in a different place . . . and doesn’t recall a thing in between. All she has left are these odd images in her head like the flash of a camera revealing something hidden in the darkness. What she knows for sure: She had to escape the high-tech ...

Was the gas in their car better at fighting crime than the officers inside? For most of the twentieth century, leaded gas was sold in the USA. Lead is hazardous to your mental and physical health.

The police were rewarded with tougher laws and military gear, and the prison population more than doubled. PLUMB CRAZY: The Secret History of Cops, Cars and Crime in America tells the little known story of unleaded gas and ...
