Cray cray conspiracy theories pushed by mainstream whackjobs

If Alex Jones had uttered something this preposterous, the media would be laughing like hyenas at this conspiracy theory. As this conspiracy theory is pushed by none other than Nato, however, the mainstream media prints with reverence:

The elaborate conspiracy goes something like this: Putin is bombing civilian areas of Syria in order to drive refugees toward the EU in order to collapse the EU in order to cause Merkel to be ousted. Such a bizarre, convoluted conspiracy it’s hard to keep track of it, but the fact that half of all refugees are actually from Afghanistan and Iraq seems not to addressed (can’t have contradictory storylines) nor does the conspiracy explain how it is that over a million refugees arrived prior to Russian involvement in Syria. Nor does the Nato conspiracy theory explain Merkel calling for refugees to come – did Putin mind control her? I’m looking forward to them fleshing out their cray cray conspiracy theory.

Also notice that the conspiracy theories mocked by the mainstream media are those that present the population itself as the victim of government and/or corporate conspiracy; whereas the conspiracy theories beloved by the mainstream media are those that present our governments and/or corporations as victims of smaller, weaker, oil rich nations?
