5 Crazy Conspiracy Theories About Hurricane Sandy

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Even before the winds of Hurricane Sandy began to moderate, conspiracy theorists of a variety of bents got busy explaining thereal meaning of the storm. Because, of course, a monster storm can’t just come from something like “weather” or “climate.” No, a storm like that just must be the product of nefarious or, perhaps, spiritual forces too big for most of us to understand. And so, while millions of Americans deal with the aftermath of what has become the  largest Atlantic tropical storm in recorded history , lots more are busy explaining what’s behind all that wind.

NASA’s Aqua satellite captured a visible image Sandy’s massive circulation on Oct. 29 at 18:20 UTC (2:20 p.m. EDT). Sandy covers 1.8 million square miles, from the Mid-Atlantic to the Ohio Valley, into Canada and New England.

Here, gathered over the last few days, is a sampling of their views.

  • It’s the gays!  We here at Hatewatch knew somebody would be sure to blame LGBT people. Sure enough, Pastor John McTernan of Defend and Proclaim the Faith Ministries started us off with the claim that the storm was God’s judgment on America for, as the pastor stated on his ministry’s website, “the government promoting homosexual ‘marriage’ as an ordinance.” America, he says, “has not repented of promoting the homosexual agenda, so the judgments will not stop.” It’s not individual sex acts that is angering the deity, McTernan points out — it’s America’s support for homosexuals and marriage equality that’s behind the weather wallop. Of course, this isn’t the first time McTernan has blamed LGBT people/homosexuality for natural disasters. As  reported in the EDGE , an LGBT news site, McTernan linked the recent Hurricane Isaac to New Orleans’ Southern Decadence festival.

 

  • It’s bad policy toward Israel!  Leave it to the folks at the conspiracy-riddled World Net Daily  to publish this one. Basically, WND says, natural disasters in the U.S. correlate to attempts to divide Israel. At least that’s what a man named William Koenig — WND bills him as a “Journalist and White House Correspondent” — has been claiming for years. Says Koenig: “When we put pressure on Israel to divide their land, we have enormous, record-setting events, often within 24 hours.” Because both American political parties have endorsed a two-state solution with regard to Israel, an angry God produced Hurricane Sandy. Oh, and in case you wondered, Koenig published a book  that “proves” that natural disasters that hit the U.S. are tied to presidential policy toward Israel, specifically during the George W. Bush administration.

 

  • It’s Obama/the government!  It seems that President Obama “engineered” Hurricane Sandy in an attempt to sway the election. Or so says InfoWars, a website run by conspiracy theorist extraordinaire Alex Jones. Kurt Nimmo, the InfoWars editor who wrote the site’s piece last Friday, suggests that Obama would benefit by looking like a strong leader in the face of a major storm — and so he orchestrated the storm he needed. How’d he manage that? Nimmo cites another website’s claim that there have been “unprecedented levels” of ionospheric phenomena in the upper atmosphere, supposedly created by the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program ( HAARP), which is a congressionally initiated program managed by the U.S. Navy and Air Force. The actual purpose of the program is to create a center for scientists to study the Earth’s upper atmosphere in order to aid communications and navigation systems for military and civilian use.  But conspiracy theorists claim that the government uses HAARP  to manipulate weather (and exert mind control) using electromagnetic waves.

        The only ‘chemtrail’ here is the fog of drugs floating around in your skull.

        And I don’t live in the USA, do I have a FEMA camp waiting for me?

      As crazy as it sounds, I’m believing what Alex says. HARRP’s methods have been proven by science.

      Everyone said Alex was crazy to say they were going to blow up the TWIN TOWERS.
      Everyone said that a deranged ex-marine could wack everyone including the president from way up high in a school building with only three shots.
      Everyone said that there was NO black winged airplane three years before it’s debut.
      Everyone said that BUILDING 7 was caused by the fires of the twin towers.
      Everyone said that those who listen and believed Alex Jones was crazy, because there is no way the Housing bubble would burst.
      Everyone says its best only to vote for repos or democrapz. A third party would mess things up.
      Everyone says that the money is being used in a good way and that its crazy to believe the government throws it away.

      WE DON”T owe european banks!
      America doesn’t spy on people
      Our school systems are just great!
      The patriot act is a good thing.
      Look at the Native Americans there doing good with FREE HEALTHCARE. Lets give that same care to everyone else!
      It’s not good and your a bad person for owning a hand gun.

      Yeah the distorted lies, convictions and weird ways we live in.
      FAST n FURIOUS
      TSA
      GMO FOOD
      NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND
      BENGAZI
      HOMELESS VETERANS
      MILLION DOLLAR SPORT STARS
      BELOW POVERTY TEACHERS
      OVER SEXED, OVER DRUGGED, CORPORATE POP STARS
      They call us crazy but watching a bunch of over paid sport stars with obessions in between a bunch of stupid (really stupid) reality shows is sane!
      JERSEY SHORE IS SANE and ASKING WHY THE TOWERS WENT DOWN IS NOT?

      Why do you want to make fun or call people “crazy” who ask the question why?

      Thomas Jefferson was crazy I guess to remind people to keep asking why.

      One of the founding fathers was crazy everyone!!!! He wanted liberty, small government and limited restrictions on who we are! I guess free healthcare, free phones and food stamps are just the way to go with all the terrorist reminders, TSA GROPING and police who dress like soldiers are all people want!

      GOD BLESS AMERICA if you can afford it. If not be called a trader, crazy or wacko for just asking why.

      Ron Paul just wanted to have the Federal Reserve destroyed. I guess thats crazy to. DEBT is better than gold. I guess.

      GOD BLESS whatever this mess is.

        The article is more than a little presumptuous in all areas. Sarcastic too.
        Excellent comment.
        To those who have their heads in the sand; eat dirt or look up and around.

    • Joerg Klaemt

      @Maverick
      It now becomes very obvious that you are a paid stoolie.
      Every time the word HAARP appears it draws you in like a Magnet,ridiculing the Technology that you appear to have no knowledge off.
      You are like a Disease that needs to be eradicated and I know of just the right medicine for you.

      • Maverick

        Wow… talk like that… sounds like a troll to me.

        Go away anonymous coward.

        • shaughn pettiscote

          So you are saying you are not anonymous Maverick? Give me a break…

        • Maverick

          Yes I am anonymous. But at least my comments are traceable and can get an idea of my frame of mind by reading my comments on other stories.

        • shaughn pettiscote

          Anonymous’ commments are as traceable as yours…does that make you a troll also? Just wondering.

      Oh yeah. It’s definitely the gays. God engineered the storm to hit right before the election because he is angry about gay people. What better way, he figured, to punish gay people and those who support them having equal rights than to provide a stunning and powerful event that would allow Obama to demonstrate his steady hand in times of crisis, his ability to work across the aisle, his professionalism, and his clarity of purpose. God definitely created this storm to punish the gays and their supporters by providing this October surprise, which worked in political terms entirely in Obama’s benefit and was the final nail in Romney’s dying campaign. Oh yeah, God hates the gays and the first president who publicly voiced his support for gay people having equal rights. Thankfully God is not an idiot like the right wing nut hypochristian idiots! Praise Jesus!
