Both Democratic and Republican administrations use false fla

[TRUTH]

REPUBLICAN


USS MAINE. The sinking of the USS Maine -- the justification for America's entry into the Spanish-American War -- was, according to the Navy's own historians, probably caused by an internal explosion of coal, rather than an attack by the Spanish, yet it was blamed on the Spanish. (William McKinley)


IRAN BOMBINGS: The New York Times has documented that Iranians working for the C.I.A. in the 1950's posed as Communists and staged bombings in Iran in order to turn the country against its democratically-elected president (see also this essay)(Dwight D. Eisenhower; plan devised during a Democratic administration)

ITALIAN TERROR. As confirmed by a former Italian Prime Minister, an Italian judge, and the former head of Italian counterintelligence, NATO, with the help of the Pentagon and CIA, carried out terror bombings in Italy 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." (commenced during Nixon administration, then continued under both Republican and Democratic administrations)


GULF WAR. Two lies were used to justify the 1991 Gulf War: the statement that Iraqis murdered Kuwaiti babies and the statement that Iraqi troops were massed on the border with Saudi Arabia (second half of video)(technically, the statement about Kuwaiti babies did not come from the U.S. government). (George H.W. Bush)


9/11. The 9/11 attacks (George W. Bush)


ANTHRAX. The anthrax attacks -- which were sent along with notes purportedly written by Islamic terrorists -- used a weaponized anthrax strain from the top U.S. bioweapons facility, the Fort Detrick military base? Indeed, top bioweapons experts have stated that the anthrax attack may have been a CIA test "gone wrong"; and see this article by a former NSA and naval intelligence officer. It is also interesting that the only congress people mailed anthrax-containing letters were key democrats, and that the attacks occurred one week before passage of the freedom-curtailing Patriot Act, which seems to have scared them and the rest of congress into passing that act without even reading it. And it might be coincidence, but White House staff began taking the anti-anthrax medicine before the Anthrax attacks occurred. (George W. Bush)


DEMOCRATIC


PEARL HARBOR. As shown by this BBC special (which contains interviews with some of the key players), it is possible that America knew of the Japanese plan to attack Pearl Harbor — down to the exact date of the attack — and allowed it to happen to justify America's entry into World War II. See also this short essay by a highly-praised historian summarizing some of the key points (the historian, a World War II veteran, actually agreed with this strategy for getting America into the war, and so does not have any axe to grind). The Pearl Harbor "conspiracy" involved hundreds of military personnel, according to top historians. Moreover, the White House apparently had, a year earlier, launched an 8-point plan to provoke Japan into war against the U.S. (including, for example, an oil embargo) And — most stunning — the administration took numerous affirmative steps to ensure that the Japanese attack would be successful (Franklin D. Roosevelt).


OPERATION NORTHWOODS. 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 committing terrorist murders against U.S. citizens on American soil, and then blaming it on the Cubans in order to justify an invasion of Cuba. Read the followingABC news report; the official documents; and watch this interview with former Washington Investigative Producer for ABC's World News Tonight with Peter Jennings (click link entitled "Joint Chiefs Guilty-Northwoods"). (John F. Kennedy, who vetoed the plan)


GULF OF TONKIN. The Gulf of Tonkin Incident was a fabrication, used to justify the escalation of hostilities against Vietnam. See this article. (Lyndon Johnson)

OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING. Local news reports after the blast indicated that there were numerous blasts, contrary to the official story. A Brigadier General wrote a report finding that there were multiple, high-tech bombs used to bring down the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. (see also the General's letter to Senator Trent Lott ). A report based upon test results at a military base apparently confirmed this conclusion (William Clinton).


1993 WTC BOMBING. The FBI had penetrated the cell which carried out the 1993 world trade center bombing, but had -- at the last minute -- cancelled the plan to have its FBI infiltrator substitute fake power for real explosives, against the infiltrator's strong wishes (summary version is free; full version is pay-per-view) (William Clinton)


TERROR IN GENERAL. The former director of the National Security Agency said "By any measure the US has long used terrorism. In ‘78-79 the Senate was trying to pass a law against international terrorism - in every version they produced, the lawyers said the US would be in violation" (the audio is here) (the relevant Senate discussion occured during the Carter administration, although the statement clearly applies to both Republican and Democratic administrations spanning many years).
