Pan Am Flight 103 conspiracy theories suggest a number of possible explanations for the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 on 21 December 1988. Some of the theories preceded the official investigation by Scottish police and the FBI; others arose from different interpretation of evidence presented at Libyan agent Abdelbaset al-Megrahi’s 2000/2001 trial; yet others have been developed independently by individuals and organisations outside the official investigation.

The Pearl Harbor advance-knowledge conspiracy theory is the argument that American government officials had advance knowledge of Japan’s December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor.
