Hi I'm new to this board. I'm glad I found this thread! I've always believed in the official "Coincidence Theories" about the destruction of the Death Star, but then I started to look into some of the details after I saw this movie. I can't remember its name but it starred the drug addict from trainspotting and the lying journalist from Shattered Glass and it was about how the Clone War was all just fabricated to give us a pretext to go to war.
Of course that was a movie, and a mediocre one at that, but it makes you think doesn't it. The situation is earily similar and when you accept that the government has lied before, they have always lied then only a fool would believe anything they say, even if it's just the local mailman saying good morning, or a church registry clerk claiming that I wasn't born yesterday.
One thing I discovered is that after general S left Tatooine in the company of an infamous smuggler, a gutted jawa sandcrawler was found with marks after fire from blasters. This has been attributed to a Stormtrooper patrol, but anybody familiar with stormtroopers and their marksmanship will now that either :
1) the Stormtroopers must have been shooting at something else next to the crawler,
2) somebody else shot up the crawler, or
3) the jawas were warned ahead by the Galaxists and had left the crawler before the Stormtroopers started shooting at it.
See how the jawas turn up all the time. And who benefitted from the destruction of the Death Star. The J-A-W-A-S.
I think that put together all the smart people in this thread have found 30-40 things that point against the official story. And 30-40 inconclusive or badly reasoned flaws equals 1 definite flaw, and thats all we need to send the official story crashing down.
Well I don't know, I'm sort of sitting on the fence about this issue ... my instincts tell me that it just can't be a coincidence ... all these things that just don't fit with the official story, they're PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE. Can you guys help me out on this????????!!!????###&&%%%@@$$$¤¤¤¤§§§.
