'Coincidence Theorist' vs 'Conspiracy Theorist'

I'm half-expecting GTFO shrieks of indignation in response to this, but in the interests of fair-and-balanced public discourse, I thought I might as well lob a grenade into the ring and see what happens.

About the Paris terrorist attacks last month, specifically - in the week following the events of Friday 13th of November, some interesting information came to light via the alternative online media. Now, I'm sure it's probably just 'synchronicity' or something, but whatever you attribute the following objective facts to, they are remarkably odd.

1. The admission of Patrick Pelloux during a radio interview on France Info that "a multi-site attack exercise" terrorism drill was taking place on the same day and in the same place "as luck would have it". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smq5iQonYeE

2. The former owners of the Bataclan theatre sold the venue exactly 9 weeks before the attacks, on Friday September 11th, after 40 years of ownership (1976). http://www.timesofisrael.com/jewish-own ... ed-dozens/

3. A horror film called 'Condemned' was officially released in cinemas on Friday the 13th of November - in the trailer released on the 20th of October, at the 1-minute mark exactly; pause the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb8ChWO3DWY <><><> http://www.movieinsider.com/m13738/condemned/


I would like to point out that I haven't drawn any conclusions here, implied or explicit. And hey, I used citations.

And John Kennedy had a secretary named Lincoln and Lincoln had one named Kennedy. So...what?

"Of all the known planets, Earth is the ONLY ONE that is blue."

Does this mean we are unique? Or perhaps that we just do not know very many planets?

Can't say but we do know that it's flat. All those photos from space are fake anyway.

Oh, Dear God

Neptune is Blue
So is Uranus
And they have found at least one extrasolar planet which indicates blue in the spectral analysis

Yeah but the point is that coincidences do not necessarily make for conspiracies. Or it could be that you are just one of them.

For all the ones claiming coincidences = conspiracy, you can just as easily have a case for a collection of assholes who are just evil, and retarded-stupid incompetent. It looks pretty much the same

Yea, I was going to try to (lamely) quote the dryly funny line from the Avengers movie - "Are we done here?"

Hehe I'm pretty sure Thor won that fight, but that's just me.
