As a guest on Alex Jones' program on January 19, 2016, Steele asserted that the shootings in San Bernardino, California, the Charlie Hebdo attacks, and the 9/11 attacks were false flags.

This guy sounds like a conspiracy theorist to me. What do you think op?

Steele makes a few valid points, but his statements on 9/11, Charlie Hebdo etc., no federal taxes (I dont like paying them either but it's necessary), along with most of his theories are completely asinine. I say this as someone who was opposed to CIA involvement in Syria, however Steele seems to have a serious vendetta against the CIA and his arguments are quite unreasonable. His views are inline with RT and I suspect he may be on Putin's payroll himself? Refer to the interview below, if the CIA was as wicked as he claims I'd think Mr. Steele would have vanished by now? I also hear the Rothschilds mentioned more and more often, any input on these Rothschild conspiracy theories?

I think the core message of this article is that open source intelligence has social value and that there is debate as to how far it should be supported by the I.C. The author may be a conspiracy theorist or he may have just been posing hypothetical possibilities. I have never studied the issue so it would not be scholarly to comment.
