FALSE FLAG OPERATION (1861): Against the advice of his Cabinet, Republican (nationalist) President Abraham Lincoln, of the united States, orders Simon Cameron, Secretary of War, and Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy, to make preparations for the reinforcement of Fort Sumter, South Carolina, and Fort Pickens, Florida. This breaks the promise Lincoln made a month previous, at the Virginia Peace Conference, by deciding to re-supply Fort Sumter, South Carolina.
NOTES:
- A false flag operation is a clandestine action usually carried out by a group with an agenda, done in such a way to mislead a population into believing it is being done by someone else.
- In the opinion of history, and of the editors and writers, we are forced to agree on prima facie evidence alone that this is a false flag incident at least in the military way.
