Partial List of False Flags
Lewrockwell.com reprints a Zero Hedge article listing some false flag operations of the past- false flags being incidents created by governments blaming the other side in order to justify war. I hadn't heard of a couple of them. What I found most interesting was the mention of the Gulf of Tonkin incident at the end of the list.
I'd always understood the supposed attacks by North Vietnamese patrol boats on U.S. Navy ships never occurred. In fact, I worked with a guy back in the 80s that was a U.S. Navy retiree. He told me he was there during the supposed Gulf of Tonkin attacks and that "nothing happened". He seemed a bit embarrassed about it, being a fairly patriotic guy.
According to the linked article, recently declassified NSA reports conclude that one of the attacks did occur but the second one didn't. I can't help but believe the guy I knew who was there and it makes me wonder how often the NSA might come to the wrong conclusions?

Left out Pearl Harbor and 9-11, the two biggest war provocation incidents used to get Americans into big, expensive, deadly for Americans and others wars.
But there's no doubt the totalitarian Japanese agenda and Nazi one had to be stopped from their attempts to take over the world. Ah, for the good old days of black and white issues in war. Actually, WW II was one the only wars in history that evil vs. good was so clearly defined.
Except for the funny fact that we help finance Hitler's rise to power help getting him elected He even made the cover of Time magazine I'm surprised they didn't have operation Gladio in the list of course the Italian government is the only ones to fully declassified it.
