For years the conspiracy theorists were telling us that governments were

Now the conspiracy theory is that governments are hiding the existence
of terrorism from us.

Both. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom-fighter and the 'bad
guy' changes from year to year as circumstances demand. Most people's
memories don't go back far enough to notice and 'The Press' - who should
be exposing these inconsistencies - are pointedly ignoring them.
