You left off some big lie gov manipulations of public opinion:

The Battleship Maine: used to start the Spanish-American war. Blamed on Spain, actually an accident.

The Gulf of Tonkin Incident : A deliberate fabrication by Lyndon Johnson to kick off the war in Vietnam

Given history, it's actually more sensible to believe your government is lying to you. How many times has history proved that the government HAS lied to us? And these are just the lies we KNOW of - how many lies remain buried, classified beyond scrutiny?
