You don't have to be a conspiracy freak to know there is a cabal of bankers, industrialists, politicians and media magnates that did not expect the outpouring of emotion for Michael Jackson that began as soon as word of his passing flashed around the world. This cabal had nearly managed to turn Michael Jackson into an un-person in the US during the 1990s, by painting him as a child molesting pervert, despite the fact that there wasn't enough evidence to put him on trial for anything.
A billion persons have taken part in tributes to Michael Jackson. There has never been anything like this memorial to the greatest star of them all -- a massive outpouring of public grief of his death and public celebration of his music.
Before you know it, the cabal will be back, flinging smut and insinuation. Why? Michael Jackson was more than the biggest star on earth. He was a non-conformist, who gave hope to those whose individualism is despised by a cabal demanding sameness of us all.
