Top Five American Mysteries

Beschreibung

America is a land steeped in history and legend, and with that comes a wealth of unsolved mysteries that continue to captivate the public imagination. Here are five of the most intriguing and enduring mysteries in American history. 1. The D.B. Cooper skyjacking: In 1971, a man claiming to be D.B. Cooper hijacked a Boeing 727, extorted $200,000 in ransom, and then parachuted out of the plane, never to be seen again. Despite decades of investigation, his identity and fate remain unknown. 2. The Zodiac Killer: Between 1968 and 1969, a serial killer known as the Zodiac terrorized Northern California. He murdered at least five people and sent taunting letters to the press, including ciphers that have yet to be fully cracked. The Zodiac's identity remains one of the most famous cold cases in American history. 3. The disappearance of Amelia Earhart: In 1937, Amelia Earhart, a pioneering aviator, vanished over the Pacific Ocean during an attempt to circumnavigate the globe. Despite extensive searches, no trace of her or her plane was ever found. The mystery of her disappearance continues to fuel speculation and intrigue. 4. The Roswell UFO incident: In 1947, a rancher near Roswell, New Mexico, discovered debris from a crashed object. The initial press release by the United States Army Air Force declared it a flying disc, but later claimed it was a weather balloon. The true nature of the Roswell object remains a subject of debate and conspiracy theories. 5. The Black Dahlia: In 1947, the brutal murder of Elizabeth Short, a young woman who would become known as the Black Dahlia, shocked Los Angeles. The case remains unsolved, and the killer's identity has never been revealed. The gruesome details and unsolved nature of the crime have made it one of the most infamous unsolved murders in American history.

Autor

My name is Mike Bhangu, a.k.a., the Thinking Man. I hold a Bachelor of Arts Degree and a Broadcast Communications Diploma. I am an online publisher, columnist for three publications, City Councillor, part-time actor, and the author of over ten non-fiction books. Through my publications I delve into political philosophy, political practice, history, popular culture, psychology, theology, ancient history, mysticism, and much more. This I did in search of a better world and a better me. The approach I take through my publications isn't traditional and the insight I share is unconventional. In fact, my work unintentionally challenges the status quo. So, let me explain from where I come. Many years ago I was hit with depression and this led me to question existence. Thereafter the popular narrative and the life purposes no longer resonated with my reason-no matter how much energy I invested trying to conform. It's as if every time I attempted to the Universe objected and forced me to question the fashionable. I experienced much inner turmoil and the demon that is depression eyed my soul as if it was loot. The only activity that gifted peace was searching for wisdom and writing. I commenced my quest to understand my place within this world two decades back. My first step was taken inside the academic arena. I studied the great thinkers immortalized by the Western World such as Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Thomas Hobbes, Rene Descartes, Jean-Jacque Rousseau, Karl Marx, John Locke, John Rawls, Niccolò Machiavelli, René Descartes, David Hume, Thomas Aquinas, Marcus Aurelius, Émile Durkheim, Max Weber, Bertrand Russell, Leo Strauss, and so on. From there I travelled to the East, and with my eyes, I listened to the dead such as Laozi, Mencius, and Confucius. Then I pried the great minds engulfed by the fringes of academia such as Madame Blavatsky, Manly P. Hall, Francis Bacon, and St. Germaine. By now I was exhausted. My finances grew wings and fled, my social circle shrunk as cotton does in the dyer, and depression was still hunting my soul. Yet, something inside me yearned for purpose, and amid the immense suffering, I was unable to change direction. So, I tightened the shoelaces, turned my hat to the back, and scrutinized religions. At the feet of The Father I fell and I studied the different holy texts and mystics such as Thoth, Manu, Moses, Guru Nanak, Guru Gobind, Mohammad, Zoroaster, Buddha, and Jesus. The holy texts examined were the Gathas, the Gospels, the Qur'an, the Tablets of Thoth, the Book of the Dead, the Old Testament, the Kabbalah, the Zohar, Guru Granth Sahib Ji, Upanishad, Bhagavat Gita, and a few others. Twenty years of struggle and sacrifice have passed and the by-product is over ten non-fiction manuscripts. These books share my journey of discovery and I publish them to help others who might be bruised up as I was, by the handed-down popular narrative and life purposes that do not resonate with the spirit. On this expedition, not only did I find my place in this chaotic world, I've also uncovered the roots to many problems that plague developed nations and the contemporary person. Accidentally, I fulfilled the duty every human being inherits-to make the world a better place for those yet born. I did this with the power of the pen.
