FALSE FLAG OPERATION (1962): The Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) deliver to Robert McNamara, Secretary of Defense (foreign military aggression), their proposal styled “Operation Northwoods,” a list of “False Flag” operations, intended to stoke national support for an armed invasion of Cuba:

• terrorist attacks against United States subject/enemy/citizens throughout the nation;
• sinking boats carrying refugees fleeing the communist “worker’s paradise” of Cuba;
• terrorist attacks against prestigious hotels in Miami, florida and the District of Columbia;
• shooting down the Friendship 7 launch of John Glenn, in his quest to become the first American to orbit the Earth.

       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.
