Column: A History of False Flag Attacks
False
flag attacks are common. You need to wake up to this. Calling them “conspiracy
theories” is government’s way of suppressing the truth.
Americans Are Finally Learning About False Flag Terror
Global Research, August 14, 2015
First published by GR in November 2013.
Governments from around the world admit they carry out
false flag terror:
- A
major with the Nazi SS admitted at the Nuremberg trials that – under orders
from the chief of the Gestapo – he and some other Nazi operatives faked
attacks on their own people and resources which they blamed on the Poles,
to justify the invasion of Poland. Nazi general Franz Halder also
testified at the Nuremberg trials that Nazi leader Hermann Goering admitted to
setting fire to the German parliament building, and then falsely blaming
the communists for the arson
- Soviet
leader Nikita Khrushchev admitted in writing that the Soviet Union’s Red Army
shelled the Russian village of Mainila in 1939, and declared that the fire
originated from Finland as a basis launching the Winter War four days
later
- Israel admits that
an Israeli terrorist cell operating in Egypt planted bombs in several
buildings, including U.S. diplomatic facilities, then left behind
“evidence” implicating the Arabs as the culprits (one of the bombs detonated
prematurely, allowing the Egyptians to identify the bombers, and several
of the Israelis later confessed) (and see this and this)
- The
CIA admits that
it hired Iranians in the 1950′s to pose as Communists and stage bombings
in Iran in order to turn the country against its democratically-elected
prime minister
- The
former Italian Prime Minister, an Italian judge, and the former head of Italian
counterintelligenceadmit that NATO, with the help of the
Pentagon and CIA, carried out terror bombings in Italy and other European
countries in the 1950s and blamed the communists, in order to rally
people’s support for their governments in Europe in their fight against
communism. As
one participant in this formerly-secret program stated: “You had to attack civilians,
people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from
any political game. The reason was quite simple. They were supposed to
force these people, the Italian public, to turn to the state to ask for
greater security”(and
see this)(Italy and other European countries subject to
the terror campaign had joined NATO before the bombings occurred). And
watch this BBC special
- As
admitted by the U.S. government, recently declassified documents show that
in the 1960′s, the American Joint Chiefs of Staff signed off on a plan
to blow up AMERICAN airplanes (using an elaborate
plan involving the switching of airplanes), and also to commit
terrorist acts on American soil, and then to blame it on the
Cubans in order to justify an invasion of Cuba. See the following ABC
news report; the official documents; and watch this
interview with
the former Washington Investigative Producer for ABC’s World News Tonight
with Peter Jennings.
- 2
years before, American Senator George Smathers had suggested that
the U.S. make “a false attack made on Guantanamo Bay which would give us
the excuse of actually fomenting a fight which would then give us the
excuse to go in and [overthrow Castro]“.
- And
Official State Department documents show that – only nine months before
the Joint Chiefs of Staff plan was proposed – the head of the Joint Chiefs
and other high-level officials discussed blowing up a consulate in the Dominican
Republic in order to justify an invasion of that country. The 3 plans were
not carried out, but they were all discussed as serious proposals
- The
South African Truth and Reconciliation Council found that,
in 1989, the Civil Cooperation Bureau (a covert branch of the South
African Defense Force) approached an explosives expert and asked him “to
participate in an operation aimed at discrediting the ANC [the African
National Congress] by bombing the police vehicle of the investigating
officer into the murder incident”, thus framing the ANC for the bombing
- An
Algerian diplomat and several officers in the Algerian army admit that, in the 1990s, the Algerian army
frequently massacred Algerian civilians and then blamed Islamic militants
for the killings (and see this video;
and Agence France-Presse, 9/27/2002, French Court Dismisses Algerian
Defamation Suit Against Author)
- Senior
Russian Senior military and intelligence officers admit that
the KGB blew up Russian apartment buildings and falsely blamed it on
Chechens, in order to justify an invasion of Chechnya (and see this report and this discussion)
- According
to the Washington
Post, Indonesian
police admit that the Indonesian military killed American teachers in
Papua in 2002 and blamed the murders on a Papuan separatist group in order
to get that group listed as a terrorist organization.
- The
well-respected former Indonesian president also admits that
the government probably had a role in the Bali bombings
- As
reported by BBC, the New York Times, and Associated
Press,
Macedonian officials admit that the government murdered 7 innocent
immigrants in cold blood and pretended that they were Al Qaeda soldiers
attempting to assassinate Macedonian police, in order to join the “war on
terror”.
- Former
Department of Justice lawyer John Yoo suggested in 2005 that the US should go on the
offensive against al-Qaeda, having “our intelligence agencies create a
false terrorist organization. It could have its own websites, recruitment
centers, training camps, and fundraising operations. It could launch fake
terrorist operations and claim credit for real terrorist strikes, helping
to sow confusion within al-Qaeda’s ranks, causing operatives to doubt
others’ identities and to question the validity of communications.”
- United
Press International reported in
June 2005:
U.S. intelligence officers are reporting that some of
the insurgents in Iraq are using recent-model Beretta 92 pistols, but the
pistols seem to have had their serial numbers erased. The numbers do not appear
to have been physically removed; the pistols seem to have come off a production
line without any serial numbers. Analysts suggest the lack of serial numbers
indicates that the weapons were intended for intelligence operations or
terrorist cells with substantial government backing. Analysts speculate that
these guns are probably from either Mossad or the CIA. Analysts speculate that
agent provocateurs may be using the untraceable weapons even as U.S.
authorities use insurgent attacks against civilians as evidence of the
illegitimacy of the resistance.
- Undercover
Israeli soldiers admitted in
2005 to throwing stones at other Israeli soldiers so they could blame it
on Palestinians, as an excuse to crack down on peaceful protests by the
Palestinians
- Quebec
police admitted that, in 2007, thugs carrying rocks to a
peaceful protest were actually undercover Quebec police officers
(and see this)
- At
the G20 protests in London in 2009, a British member of parliament saw plain clothes police officers attempting to
incite the crowd to violence
- A
Colombian army colonel has admitted that
his unit murdered 57 civilians, then dressed them in uniforms and claimed
they were rebels killed in combat
- U.S.
soldiers have admitted that if they kill innocent Iraqis and
Afghanis, they then “drop” automatic weapons near their body so they can
pretend they were militants
- The
highly-respected writer for the Telegraph Ambrose Evans-Pritchard says that
the head of Saudi intelligence – Prince Bandar – admitted last
the Saudi government controls “Chechen” terrorists
So Common … There’s a Name for It
This tactic is so common that it was given a name for
hundreds of years ago.
“False flag terrorism” is defined as a government
attacking its own people, then blaming others in order to justify going to war
against the people it blames. Or as Wikipedia defines it:
False flag operations are covert operations conducted
by governments, corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to
appear as if they are being carried out by other entities. The name is derived
from the military concept of flying false colors; that is, flying the flag of a
country other than one’s own. False flag operations are not limited to war and
counter-insurgency operations, and have been used in peace-time; for example,
during Italy’s strategy of tension.
The term comes from the old days of wooden ships, when
one ship would hang the flag of its enemy before attacking another ship in its
own navy. Because the enemy’s flag, instead of the flag of the real country of
the attacking ship, was hung, it was called a “false flag” attack.
Indeed, this concept is so well-accepted that rules of
engagement for naval, air and land warfare all prohibit false flag attacks.
Leaders Throughout History Have Acknowledged False
Flags
Leaders throughout history have acknowledged the
danger of false flags:
“This and no other is the root from which a tyrant
springs; when he first appears he is a protector.”
- Plato
“If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will
be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.”
- U.S. President James Madison
“A history of false flag attacks used to manipulate
the minds of the people! “In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups,
parties, nations, and epochs it is the rule.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche
“Terrorism is the best political weapon for nothing
drives people harder than a fear of sudden death”.
- Adolph Hitler
“Why of course the people don’t want war … But after
all it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always
a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a
fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship … Voice or
no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That
is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce
the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It
works the same in any country.”
- Hermann Goering, Nazi leader.
“The easiest way to gain control of a population is to
carry out acts of terror. [The public] will clamor for such laws if their
personal security is threatened”.
- Josef Stalin
People Are Waking Up to False Flags
People are slowly waking up to this whole con job by
governments who want to justify war.
