How much proof do you need. The Wikipedia page alone have tons of sources.
Just because something is a conspiracy doesn't mean it is a lie.
Most conspiracy theories are lies/delusions, but look at the real projects like MKULTRA, they sound like insane conspiracy theories, but are real.
Difference between:
Conspiracy and Conspiracy Theory
Theories can be proven to be true, or can be just a baseless claim.
Out of the many conspiracy theories, there are some that will be proven to be true.

Michael Parenti, Dirty Truths
Those who suffer from conspiracy phobia are fond of saying: “Do you actually think there’s a group of people sitting around in a room plotting things?” For some reason that image is assumed to be so patently absurd as to invite only disclaimers. But where else would people of power get together – on park benches or carousels? Indeed, they meet in rooms: corporate boardrooms, Pentagon command rooms, at the Bohemian Grove, in the choice dining rooms at the best restaurants, resorts, hotels, and estates, in the many conference rooms at the White House, the NSA, the CIA, or wherever. And, yes, they consciously plot – though they call it “planning” and “strategizing” – and they do so in great secrecy, often resisting all efforts at public disclosure. No one confabulates and plans more than political and corporate elites and their hired specialists. To make the world safe for those who own it, politically active elements of the owning class have created a national security state that expends billions of dollars and enlists the efforts of vast numbers of people.
