6 week cycle

69  2013-11-08 by The_eye_in_the_sky

I have slapped this list together based on the podcast No Agenda's 6 week cycle theory that every 6 weeks (if I understand it correctly) the FBI/Government has to have some sort of event in order to stay relevant.

This was hard choosing which news event to use for each cycle, I think there might be something to this. I will try to add more but feel free to post a continuation of this (or corrections) I'm sure I'm missing some relevant ones. Too tired, going to bed now.

A quick addition of Navy Yard shooting, Mariam Carey, and the more recent LAX shooting will surely fit in the timeline here at the top. Somewhere?

  • Sep. 1 Syria debacle-Secretary of State John Kerry asserts the United States now has evidence of sarin gas use in Syria from hair and blood samples

  • Jul. 21 Hundreds of al-Qaeda prisoners escape during armed raids on two Iraqi prisons, including the Baghdad Central Prison (formerly known as Abu Ghraib). Also note 6 days later Jul. 27 More than 1,000 inmates escape from prison in Benghazi, Libya

  • Jun. 6 The Guardian obtains a copy of a document from April that reveals that the NSA is mining data using PRISM, spying on the e-mails and web activities of American citizens

  • Apr. 15 Two explosions in Boston, United States, near the finish line of the 2013 Boston Marathon

  • Mar. 7 North Korea threatens its enemies with the possibility of a pre-emptive nuclear strike

  • Jan. 29, 2012 Police confront protesters with tear gas and stun grenades in the U.S. city of Oakland, California; more than 100 arrests are made.

  • Dec. 14: Adam Lanza, age 20, forces his way into Sandy Hook Elementary School

  • Nov. 6: President Obama is re-elected, narrowly defeating Republican nominee Mitt Romney... Could go back another week to Oct. 29: Hurricane Sandy makes landfall in Atlantic City, N.J

  • Sep. 11: Armed gunmen storm the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya

  • (Both potentially within target date) July 20: James Holmes opens fire on the crowded theater in a Denver suburb. Twelve people are killed and 58 others are wounded. Aug. 5: Wade Michael Page, age 40, opens fire in a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, killing six people and wounding three others.

It's the FBI six week cycle. The theory is that the FBI needs a domestic event every 5-7 weeks to concentrate their terror budget on. It doesn't refer to foreign events, it's really about the mass shootings and bombing plots which take place in the US.

Things like; boston marathon, navy yard, sandy hook, LAX, Colorado theatre would be part of the six week cycle. Benghazi, NSA scandal, Syria etc would not.

I'm not saying I agree with the theory, just clarifying what it refers to. Thank you for your courage.

Or that's the time period in which maximum psychological impact is attained.

thank you for your courage.... And the comment. Now that you mention it, you are right. They did say something about it being only FBI, but it was fun piecing these together, and yes I used about a 5-7 week cycle.

Thank you for your research

You're welcome, I wish I could go further back, and maybe I will after work tonight.

Do you think the Chris Dorner fiasco would fit somewhere on there?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Dorner

The first accused killings occurred on Feb. 3rd 2013.

And the wiki says he died from a self inflicted gunshot wound. I thought there was a voice recording somewhere of him being burned alive by the police.

I don't think Dorner was a false flag. I think he was a legit guy out for justice in what he believed was the only option after all the legal options had been lost.

The biggest reason I believe this is because, unlike, uh... EVERY OTHER MAJOR SHOOTER over the past several years, the guy had an actual motive, AND, the police were in a complete panic.

All these other shooters/bombers/"terrorists" were just a "crazy lone gunman", but this guy was different, he had an entire agenda, a manifesto and the police had no fucking clue how to deal with him.

I'm not sure this 6 week cycle thing would require it to be a false flag. They could just seize the opportunity that Dorner provided and "remind" us all again why we need a strong government.

For the record, I'm pretty sure you're right about it being a false flag, and I'm not sure about this whole theory. I'm certainly not sold that anything is planned with such regularity as a 6 week cycle. etc etc.

Yeah, it could just be a moment to hype a shooting or something related to national security. There are shootings every day, but only some get elevated to national news, and they're usually the ones that fit the agenda of those who control the media.

I would say it's probably more common to find unjustified shootings by police, but those never make it to the national level.

For example: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/03/howard-morgan-ex-cop-shot_n_1399834.html

That could be a high profile case about police brutality and racism, yet most people have no idea it happened. Didn't fit the 6 week cycle and didn't feed the narrative or cops being our sole protectors deserving of a monopoly on firearms.

Yea I second this. OP is missing a slot for Feb and this fits right in there.

2  The_eye_in_the_sky 2013-11-08

agreed I knew I forgot an important one.

4  [deleted] 2013-11-08

OP, edit your post with the events you mentioned (lax shooting and Miriam Carey) and also Chris Dorner. Also if you say "5-7 weeks" instead of 6 I think it's more convincing and according to someone on here, that's the real claim anyway.

1  The_eye_in_the_sky 2013-11-08

Yes I think you are right, 6 week cycle just has a better ring to it than 5-7 week cycle. But I did pull them from a timeline within that range.

3  jakemasterj 2013-11-08

I think the navy yard would fit the best of the 3, LAX falls on either the 2nd or 4th week of the cycle. 2 weeks before, or 4 weeks after the navy yard if my calculations are correct.

Even if you're theory falls through somewhere, just wanna say thanks for posting a topic that I haven't seen before.

3  The_eye_in_the_sky 2013-11-08

thank you for your courage and kind words

3  HxRagexH 2013-11-08

So every six weeks they go on the rag, sounds familiar.

1  The_eye_in_the_sky 2013-11-08

Ha! I guess you could say that

3  boncros 2013-11-08

Thank you all, for your courage

Very interesting indeed. It would seem you are onto something big.

1  OoogaOoogaYoink 2013-11-08

It would seem that The No Agenda Show is onto something big.

FTFY

Interesting post! Ill definately be keeping this in mind.

Hey, since the LAX shooting, about six weeks later is roughly christmas time... Just pointing that out..

If hindsight bias and confirmation bias had a baby, it would be the Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy.

The 6 week cycle is textbook The Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy.

The Misconception: You take randomness into account when determining cause and effect.

The Truth: You tend to ignore random chance when the results seem meaningful or when you want a random event to have a meaningful cause.

3  The_eye_in_the_sky 2013-11-08

Of course you could claim it's all confirmation bias. I thought it was obvious. I'm sorry I didn't spell that out for you. I was literally cherry picking the events out of many events (which I made clear I thought).... I didn't claim that any of these are linked to anything other than chance and coincidence. I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. If its too hard for you to entertain a thought then you're better suited for /r/cats where you need not think too much.

0  dehehn 2013-11-08

Calm down, it's worth pointing out the fallacy at work. It's part of entertaining it, to consider the Occam's Razor explanation. That said, I think most of us consider that explanation very quickly, but the fun and interest comes in trying to see if there is more to the story.

I upvoted him because I think it's worth pointing out, but I will also point out that close to no one on this board isn't very aware that in many of these cases the simplest explanation is very likely the reality. Still we're not here to discuss the accepted narrative, but to look for holes.

2  The_eye_in_the_sky 2013-11-08

Sure, you're right. I just thought the comment was pretty condescending, considering his comment history. I should have been more mature though, good call.
