I always find it interesting that it's always pariahs in society, be they Jews, gays or whatever, that are the ones labeled by conspiracy theories as secretly running everything and causing massive changes to occur. They can't gain acceptance or stop people from bullying them but they completely control the world around us.
Well, at least they found an alternative explanation to "the devil's doing it".
I suspect the conspiracy theories are built to slander those folks rather than they being caught up in the conspiracy as "convenient victims".
I have done research on the Pearl Harbor attack since I was fourteen (weird neighbor, long story) and may be one of 5-6 people on the planet who have read the entire 40 volume Congressional Hearings Report on the subject. When I first started putting material from the Hearings online I drew the attention of a guy named Mark Wiley. Mark had put up one of those wild, incoherent and rambling sites about Pearl that mixed a few facts with some blatant speculation. His goal with that site was not to explain Pearl Harbor, but rather to prove that FDR had deliberately allowed it to happen so as to get into WWII. After a few tries at pointing out the errors in the site I gave up. He hated FDR and everything he did revolved around that.
