Operation Northwoods
A
Guide to Future US Covert Ops?
Comment by Larry Ross, June 10, 2005
It is 1962, at the height of the induced
US paranoia over Cuba. Pentagon Hawks and their right-wing political allies
created a diabolically evil plan to covertly murder American citizens
and blame Cuban agents in the US. The purpose was to provide a believable
excuse that would anger Americans and the world, causing them to support
a US war against Cuba. All top Pentagon generals approved this plan. The
Kennedy Administration did not approve it.
Exercise for the Doubting Thomas:
Do a search on "Operation Northwoods" on Google, Yahoo and other
search engines. Satisfy yourselves that this
incredibly evil plan did originate from the US top military brass. Those
they picked to replace them, are in power today.
Today we know that all 14 US intelligence agencies, including their Covert
Operations, are consolidated under the control of one man - John Negroponte,
appointed by George Bush. Negroponte has a long record of working with
covert US operations and local Death Squads while he was US ambassador
to Honduras - and lately - US Ambassador to Iraq. (See US War On Iraq).
Bush has appointed a number of similar right-wing people to high positions
in his Administrations. Would these people approve an "Operation
Northwoods" plan today?
Many of them already have. The Bush Administration has invented a long
and detailed litany of lies to justify invading Iraq and killing 100,000
innocent people. Every objective person who follows US policy knows this
is true. Our web site: http://www.nuclearfree.org.nz has much evidence
that supports this conclusion.
Over 1,500 American military, so far, have
been killed, and thousands wounded, while killing Iraqis to implement
Bush's plan. This operation places Bush and his associates among the worst
war criminals in history. But Bush enjoys the support or acceptance of
the US Congress, Senate, a majority of mass media and enough of the US
public. These are not necessarily evil people. Some believe the official
propaganda, some are bought and some are scarred out of their wits into
silence. He has the huge human and material resources of the US at his
beck and call. This born-again Christian Fundamentalist who claims to
believe in the Biblical prophesy of a fiery armageddon for mankind is
the most powerful man in the world and the world's worst living war criminal.
Until Bush and his associates are removed from office, the crimes, and
perhaps far worse crimes, will continue.
In Iraq, there is evidence that US covert operations are killing innocent
civilians and blaming 'terrorists' and evidence that the US is trying
to start a war between different religious factions.
"Operation Northwoods' thinking is written all over the plan to make
war on Iraq; create conditions for a permanent US occupation of Iraq,
and expand US control over neighbouring states such as Syria and Iran.
How do these war criminals justify this behaviour?
- Religion. Millions of Americans are Christian
Fundamentalists who believe Bush has God's blessing to lead. All Bush's
actions are acceptable to implement God's plan. Bush, who claims to
believe this nonsense, gives himself a magical heavenly blessing to
do whatever he wants to America and the world. Historically great crimes
have already been committed by the Bush Administration. Although these
have been known for several years, Bush has managed to escape impeachment
and arrange by fraud, not only the 1st term, but a second term as the
US President. So much for 'freedom, liberty and democracy' American
style.. (See US Elections)
- Manifest US destiny. The Neo-Conservatives
have developed plans for the US to have a global empire that will control
the world. Any crimes may be committed and are acceptable to pursue
and further this goal.
- $$+Fear. Perhaps the majority of people
connected to this Empire plan and it's implementation, are intimidated,
or bought into silence, acceptance and a role in building the new Empire.
The biggest crime of all - the 9/11 attacks
with over 2,000 dead Americans. Most people would draw the line on behalf
of George Bush and say he couldn't have had anything to do with that crime
or covering up important details of how it was done, and who must have
co-operated to allow it to happen. Like most people, I believed it would
be ridiculous to believe George Bush and his Neo-cons were involved in
committing or covering up this horrendous crime which killed over 2,000
Americans. It seems too unbelievably monstrous and impossible to be true.
That is what I thought until I read that thousands of Americans and numerous
US web sites devoted to 9/11, believe that Bush either participated in
the plan for 9/11, or knew it would happen. They believe the Bush Neo-con
Administration covered it up because they knew it would anger Americans,
thus making possible the war on Iraq, which they had planned before the
9/11 attack. Check out the story yourself on our website under "9/11
Questions". Check it on other web sites specialising in this crime
or search "9/11 Attacks" on Google, yahoo and other search engines.
Be warned. If you talk about this - even dare to mention the possibility
- you will be dismissed as a "conspiracy theorist" and a nut
case. This label is promoted by the Neo-con Administration, and their
co-operative media because they don't want anyone to connect-the-dots.
This is quite effective in preventing questions, silencing critics, or
dulling their criticism, as no-one wants to be accused of being a "conspiracy
theorist nut case". I am willing to believe such accusations are
not true if the Bush Administration is willing to give honest and convincing
answers to key questions. So far they have refused to do so. This 'covering-up'
type of response only increases public suspicions. Also, they can't cover
up the lies they told to get America to support, make sacrifices and send
their sons to make war on Iraq - and all the terrible results of that
very large, and very well-known conspiracy.
The facts are no longer disputable about
this great crime. So people should feel free to examine other possible
great crimes, such as 9/11, without feeling that makes them a "conspiracy
theorist nut case". Also if they come to believe that Bush and his
Neo-cons may be guilty, they can ask themselves what the future consequences
may be and how long before the freedoms they take for granted, are taken
away, and more wars started, all justified by more 9/11 events.
It's like the children's story: "The Emperor's New Cloths" where
no one dared question that the naked Emperor was actually wearing special
new clothes that only specially favoured people could see. Needless to
say everyone claimed to see the clothes, rather than be thought deficient.
Only a child came along and said: "The Emperor has no clothes on."
Everyone then agreed and the scam was exposed. The Neo-con stories are
similar.
The Neo-cons said as much in one of their war plans, when they wrote:
"We need another Pearl Harbour", knowing it would ensure American
public and Congressional support for Bush's already planned war plans.
They've actually done this kind of thing before. President Lyndon Johnson,
they faked a North Vietnam attack on US warships in the Gulf of Tonkin,
in order to justify escalating the Vietnam war to begin bombing North
Vietnam. Also, in Havana, they sunk the US ship The Maine, in order to
start a war with Spain.
Hitler used a similar technique when his Nazis burned down the Reichstag
and blamed foreign terrorists, in order to seize power and begin their
reign of terror, conquest and World War II with 50 million killed.
So the idea of a Bush/Neo-con plot for terrorists to kill Americans in
order to facilitate war plans is not as crazy as it sounds. I have touched
on a few examples to show that this kind of strategy has been used in
the past and has accomplished it's evil goals.
Further examples of this kind of strategy
that worked, or failed, would be welcome to: larry.ross@nuclearfreenz.org.nz
