"Operation Northwoods" Among Other Plots

The Smirking Chimp:
"'In the early 1960s, America's top military leaders reportedly drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S. cities to create public support for a war against Cuba.' --David Ruppe, ABC News, May 1, 2001

Uncovered by investigative journalist James Bamford, 'Operation Northwoods' was calculated to dupe us into backing a war against Cuba via a series of staged actions involving murdering even our own citizens.

Approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the amazing proposal is mind boggling: 'We could blow up a U.S. ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba,' and, 'casualty lists in U.S. newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation.'"
