Jonestown massacre.jpg
Over 900 people died at Jonestown, in what was officially described as a mass suicide. Closer inspection uncovers a number of possible ties to something more sinister.
1978 saw the continued offshoring of the US Deep state, in response to the HSCA.

1978 saw the continued offshoring of the US Deep state, in response to the House Select Committee on Assassinations.

House Select Committee on Assassinations

Full article: House Select Committee on Assassinations

In the US, the House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded that John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King were both very likely assassinated as a result of a conspiracy, not by "lone nuts". The HSCA had "posed large problems for the Cabal", which they addressed partly through a policy of assassination.[1]

Jonestown

Full article: Jonestown

Jonestown was a remote settlement in Guyana, established by the Peoples Temple under the leadership of Jim Jones. The official narrative notes that members voluntarily drank a cyanide laced drink, but that is disputed by several researchers.
