As missiles light up the skies between Israel and Iran, the USS Nimitz, a 50-year-old relic from the Cold War, is now en route to the Middle East.
Officially, it’s to ‘maintain stability.’ Unofficially? It’s starting to look a lot like bait.
This ageing aircraft carrier, lumbering toward a modern missile battlefield, is due for retirement next year. This is its last mission. Its nuclear reactors are becoming unreliable, and its strategic value, in a world of hypersonic weapons and drone swarms, is questionable at best.
So why send it?
What if this floating Cold War Museum is being offered up as the perfect pretext? Imagine it’s hit. Sunk, even. 5,000-5,200 American lives lost.
Right on cue, the media does as expected: ‘An act of war.’ Cue the outrage. The justifications. Iran becomes the next Iraq, shattered and remade into a Western proxy.
Of course, Iran wouldn’t strike a US warship, and Washington knows it. But if the USS Nimitz were attacked, who would really care whose name was on the missile?
Would it matter if the assailant wasn’t who they said it was? The press wouldn’t ask. They didn’t in 2003. They didn’t with Libya. They wouldn’t now!
Another ‘45-minute WMD’ moment delivering the blow, blame the usual suspect. We’ve seen this script. Remember the USS Liberty, 1968, with over 200 American victims destroyed by Israeli aircraft? ‘Friendly fire,’ they claimed. Confusion, they said. Then they buried it.
The pattern’s familiar: sacrifice a necessary pawn, in someone else’s endgame. Outrage follows. Boots on the ground. Good men and an old ship, expendables, offered to the gods of war and profit.
So, ask yourself: Is the USS Nimitz a show of strength, or the match waiting to be struck?
Here are a few false flags that flew before…
False Flags That Sparked or Justified Military Conflicts
1. The Gleiwitz Incident (1939) – National Socialist Germany
* What happened: Polish irregulars staged one of a series of 29 attacks on German targets – this time on a German radio station.
* Outcome: Used by Hitler as justification to invade Poland, triggering World War II.
2. The Reichstag Fire (1933) – National Socialist Germany
* What happened: The German parliament building was set ablaze; National Socialists blamed communists.
* Outcome: Allowed Hitler to consolidate power. While not a foreign war, it enabled Hitler’s total control.
3. Operation Northwoods (1962). USA (Proposed)
* What happened: A declassified Pentagon plan proposed staging attacks on US soil and blaming Cuba (including hijackings and bombings).
* Outcome: Never carried out, rejected by President Kennedy, but revealed the depths of thinking within US military planning circles.
4. USS Maine (1898) – USA
* What happened: The US battleship exploded in Havana Harbor. Blamed on Spain with no proof.
* Outcome: Used to launch the Spanish-American War, ‘Remember the Maine!’ became the war cry.
5. Gulf of Tonkin Incident (1964). USA
* What happened: A supposed North Vietnamese attack on US ships in the Gulf of Tonkin. The evidence was dubious or fabricated.
* Outcome: Used to pass the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, escalating US involvement in Vietnam.
6. The Mukden Incident (1931). Japan
* What happened: Japanese soldiers blew up a section of railway and blamed Chinese forces.
* Outcome: Justification for Japan’s full-scale invasion of Manchuria.
7. Lavon Affair (1954). Israel
* What happened: Israeli agents bombed US and British targets in Egypt, intending to pin the blame on Egyptian groups.
* Outcome: Operation failed and was exposed. Deepened distrust but failed in triggering the desired military response.
8. The Shelling of Mainila (1939). Soviet Union
* What happened: The USSR fired shells at its own village of Mainila and blamed Finland.
* Outcome: Justified the Soviet invasion of Finland (the Winter War).
9. 9/11 (2001). USA (Contested)
* What happened: Al-Qaeda carried out coordinated attacks, but some argue that state actors either let it happen or exploited it.
* Outcome: Used to justify wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, mass surveillance, and the global ‘War on Terror’.
10. The USS Liberty (1967). Israel
* What happened: Israeli forces attacked a US Navy ship in international waters, killing 34 Americans.
* Outcome: Claimed to be a mistake. Many believe it was deliberate, possibly intended to be blamed on Egypt to draw the US into the Six-Day War.
Honorable Mentions (Highly Suspect or Manipulated Narratives)
* Weapons of Mass Destruction (Iraq 2003). Fabricated intelligence used by the UK and US to justify invasion.
* Chemical attacks in Syria (multiple instances). Western media blamed Assad with limited independent verification; used to justify strikes.
* The ‘Incubator Babies’ testimony (1990) False story about Iraqi soldiers killing babies in Kuwait; swayed US public to support Gulf War I. ~ STEVE HALL:

Yes, Mike, that could be a false flag in the making ! You’re right. But what about the “nuclear reactors” ??? if the Nimitz explodes ? Another thing – between you and me, only – allow me to disagree about :2. The Reichstag Fire (1933) – National Socialist Germany. It was never proven that Germany did it : I quote from StormFront.orgMYTHS, WARTIME PROPAGANDA AND THE BURNING OF THE REICHSTAG
By FRED BLAHUT On February 27, he entered as usual, walked through the deserted building and left at 8:55 pm. He found nothing out of the ordinary-no shadowy figures, no smell of flammable liquid. In fact, the postman disproves the “accomplices” theory, no matter who those accomplices were alleged to have been, because of the time sequences.
And then there is the small fact overlooked by historians-that when Goering arrived at the Reichstag at 9:35 pm, having been alerted by his friend, he immediately thought entrance might have been gained through the tunnel. He was quoted: “They [the arsonists] must have come through the tunnel.” He immediately went off with several policemen-not Nazis-to examine it. They found the doors at either end securely locked.
Would Goering have called for a search of the tunnel if he or his compatriots had been responsible for the fire? Hardly likely. He and the police might have caught the conspirators exiting on the Goering residence side…

Not just the Reichstag Fire. There is evidence that “the Gleiwitz incident” was a false, false flag. An article at CODOH,- Gleiwitz: A False, False Flag? By Veronica Clark ∙ December 22, 2018 (which was updated last year) – goes through the anomalies of the narrative. Gleiwitz wasn’t needed. Poland had attacked Danzig and there were many documented Polish attacks on the German border. Recall that Polish Dictator Marshal Edward Rydz had begun mobilization 6 months previously.
Everything you have been told about WWII is a lie. That does not mean that National Socialism was a political/economic philosophy free of flaws. All are flawed.

Al Qeida had nothing to do with 911. Israel and American jews and neocons did it. Plenty of evidence to prove it.
