I believe Manson was set up to discredit the counter culture. It was too much of a threat to the establishment, too many people were beginning to live outside the establishment -- not paying taxes, not buying products, not getting loans from the bank. Manson was involved with organized crime but under the Governments direction. He may not have been aware completely of that as I believe it is likely he was a mind control slave to some degree. I think he's telling the truth when he says he was not involved with the Tate Murders. I would be more likely to believe her Holocaust surviving husband to have been involved with the murder than Manson. Mae Brussell was a Jew had a conspiracy talk show in the 60s. She was higher level than Alex Jones but I also believe she was an insider and disinfo agent. Her father was one of the highest level Rabbis in LA.
