Want even moar nightmare fuel? We all know how trump has yuuuge IMAX-level projection skills, so…could a repeat of Operation Northwoods be around the corner, only without the sane people to shut it down? o_O
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.
Code named Operation Northwoods, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities.
The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community into supporting a war to oust Cuba’s then new leader, communist Fidel Castro.
What better pretext could the trump/bannon/flynn cabal use as an excuse to go full-fascist?
