It has been officially revealed via declassified government documents that the US military and government has covertly planned to perpetrate acts of terror upon innocent civilians in order to justify an engagement in conflict that would have at the time, benefited the government’s wider geopolitical agenda. In 1962 at the height of the Cold War, The Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS), under the chairmanship of General Lyman L. Lemnitzer, drew up plans to create and launch a war on Cuba based solely on a fabric of lies. These lies revolved around the murder of hundreds of Americans.
It should be noted that according to researcher Robert Gaylon Ross, Sr., Lemnitzer was an attendee of Bilderberg meetings. These are highly secretive meetings for the elite and members of business, financial, military, media, and government that are designed to discuss the direction of the world. Another person close to President John F. Kennedy (JFK) would attend these meetings according to Ross -- Secretary of State Dean Rusk. This leads one to wonder if the suggestion of Operation Northwoods actually came from Lemnitzer or from these meetings.
According to ABC News, 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. (1)
Long hidden documents, uncovered in 2001 by former ABC News investigative reporter James Bamford, code-named OPERATION NORTHWOODS, put a haunting perspective behind the events of September 11.
The JCS documents proposed launching a secret and violent war of terrorism against their own country in order to condition the people of the USA into supporting an intended war against Cuba. These sickening plans called for innocent American civilians to be shot, for Cuban refugees to be blown up, for violent and continued acts of terrorism to be perpetrated in major American cities, for innocents to be framed for bombings, and for planes to be hijacked.
This would then be blamed on Fidel Castro and Cuba, thus, inciting hatred for him and Communism, and instigating the public backing that the JCS needed as an excuse to launch the pre-planned war. In addition to Castro being blamed, pasty operatives would be framed for bombings, planes would appear to be hijacked and evidence would be planted to justify war with Cuba.
These false flag attacks staged by the US federal agencies such as the FBI and CIA would include:
(1) Planted bombs and explosive materials;
(2) Intercepted messages with suspected terrorist organizations;
(3) Staged hijacking attempts; and,
(4) Murder of America citizens to justify US federal agency agendas.
The first instance of deception on the part of the JCS was to the new president, John F. Kennedy (JFK), telling him that America should press ahead with an invasion of Cuba that would trigger an internal uprising against Fidel Castro, therefore, ensuring his speedy downfall. This was a total lie. The CIA itself had reports that stated that the majority of the Cuban public looked upon Castro as a hero after he had ousted the excessive and repressive regime of Batista two years previously.
Those people were unaware of the future horrors Castro had planned for them, but the point is that any uprising against Castro was very unlikely at this time. Indeed, Lemnitzer himself knew this to be the case and would later refer to the CIA Bay Of Pigs operation that followed as ‘The Cuban debacle’. Nevertheless, at the time Lemnitzer and the JCS submitted a positive recommendation for the operation, possibly knowing that the CIA led invasion would fail and that he could then push for a more active involvement in Cuba and around the world, for himself, the Pentagon and the JCS. JFK decides, Bamford writes, to back away from military solutions to the Cuban problem.
But Lemnitzer, the CIA and others at the top remain obsessed with Cuba. Writes Bamford:
“As the Kennedy brothers appeared to suddenly ‘go soft’ on Cuba, Lemnitzer could see his opportunity to invade...quickly slipping away...attempts to provoke the Cuban public to revolt seemed dead...Lemnitzer and the other chiefs knew there was only one option left that would ensure their war. They would have to trick the American public and world opinion...”
After the inevitably bungled Bay of Pigs operation, responsibility for dealing with Cuba was shifted from the CIA to the Pentagon, where the project would be known as OPERATION MONGOOSE. Under the guise of Lemnitzer and Air-Force One-star General Edward G. Lansdale, the Pentagon saw its opportunity to further remove itself from civilian authority, particularly that of JFK who was seen by many generals as a ‘no win chief’ who did not understand military judgments. Military officials craved for the good old days of jurisdiction under the military mind of President Eisenhower, and many government elites were also this way inclined.
By February 1962 it was clear that an uprising in Cuba was highly unlikely. In addition, it was generally accepted that Castro had no desire to attack America or anything belonging to America. Lansdale had also been told to drop all anti-Castro efforts by Robert Kennedy, and the JCS saw their opportunities slipping away. There was only one option left for Lemnitzer and Lansdale, and that was NORTHWOODS.
The strategy of NORTHWOODS was outlined, US military intervention will result from a period of heightened US-Cuban tensions which place the United States in the position of suffering justifiable grievances. World opinion, and the United Nations forum should be favorably affected by developing the international image of the Cuban government as rash and irresponsible, and as an alarming and unpredictable threat to the peace of the Western Hemisphere. (2)
It is clear that Lemnitzer and the JCS had gone over the edge. They admitted that the operation would mean a surge in both Cuban and American casualties, but that they intended to go ahead with it anyway.
The Northwoods document goes into extensive detail about the proposed actions that the operation would involve,
(1) Start rumors (many). Use clandestine radio.
(2) Land friendly Cubans in uniform “over the fence” to stage attack on US base.
(3) Capture Cuban (friendly) saboteurs inside the base.
(4) Start riots near the base main gate (friendly Cubans).
(5) Blow up ammunition inside the base; start fires.
(6) Burn aircraft on air base (sabotage).
(7) Lob mortar shells from outside of base into base. Some damage to installations.
(8) Capture assault teams approaching from the sea or vicinity of Guantanamo City.
(9) Capture militia group which storms the base.
(10) Sabotage ship in harbor; large fires - - naphthalene.
(11) Sink ship near harbor entrance. Conduct funerals for mock victims. (3)
The later sections of the report begin to outline the plots of terror that the U.S. Government would covertly instigate upon innocent people. The first suggestion was to re-create an incident of 1898 when a mysterious explosion aboard the battleship Maine in Havana Harbor killed 266 U.S. soldiers and sparked the Spanish-American war. The horrific explosion influenced more than a million volunteers for duty and is now widely considered to have been an act of treason where the U.S. attacked itself to create an enemy and a pretext.
The Northwoods document continues, "A Remember the Maine" incident could be arranged in several forms:
a. We could blow up a ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba.
b. We could blow up a drone (unmanned vessel) anywhere in the Cuban waters...The presence of Cuban planes or ships merely investigating the intent of the vessel could be fairly compelling evidence that the ship was taken under attack...Casualty lists in the newspapers would cause a helpful wave of national indignation...We could develop a communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami areas, in other Florida cities and even in Washington…the terror campaign could be pointed at Cuban refugees seeking haven in the United States. We could sink a boat load of Cubans enroute to Florida (real or simulated). We could foster attempts on lives of Cuban refugees in the United States... (4)
The JCS then go on to discuss how they could actually shoot down a mock chartered civil aircraft and blame Cuba:
"Hijacking attempts against civil air and surface craft should appear to continue as harassing measures condoned by the government of Cuba...It is possible to create an incident which will demonstrate convincingly that a Cuban aircraft has attacked and shot down a chartered civil air liner enroute from the US to Jamaica, Guatemala, Venezuela or Panama. The destination would be chosen only to cause the flight plan route to cross Cuba. The passengers could be a group of college students off on a holiday, or any group of persons with a common interest to support-chartering a non-scheduled flight..." (5)
The plan was to replace said aircraft with an identical drone, flown by remote control, and land the original plane at an air force base where passengers, boarded under prepared aliases, would be evacuated. The drone would then fly the route and when over Cuba, emit a distress signal before being destroyed by radio signal.
A further plan concerning a plane involved a USAF craft appearing to be shot down by Cuban MIGs in an ‘unprovoked attack’ over international waters. The pilot would broadcast that he was under attack and then cease all transmission. He would then fly back to a base where the plane would be given a new tail number and the pilot would resume his real identity. Then a U.S. submarine would disperse some destroyed plane parts in the water. Thus, the result is a missing plane, pilot and wreckage in international waters after reports of an attack by MIG aircraft.
I would emphasize that before these documents became well known, government officials denied their very existence, even though they had been unclassified and released by the National Security Archive. Anyone with Internet access can read them and yet Robert S. McNamara, Kennedy’s defense secretary states, “I never heard of it. I can’t believe the chiefs were talking about or engaged in what I would call CIA-type operations.” (6)
Finally, another variation is described by Bamford:
“On February 20th, 1962 (John) Glenn was to lift off from Cape Canaveral…on his historic journey. Lemnitzer “proposed … that should the rocket explode and kill Glenn, ‘the objective is to provide irrevocable proof that…the fault lies with (Cuba)…” “by manufacturing various pieces of evidence which would prove electronic interference on the part of the Cubans.” Thus, Bamford notes, “as NASA prepared to send the first American into space, the Joint Chiefs of Staff were preparing to use John Glenn’s possible death as a pretext to launch a war.”
The Operation Northwoods plan shows the Pentagon was capable, according to Bamford, “of launching a secret and bloody war of terrorism against their own country in order to trick the American public into supporting a (war on Cuba).”
As a caveat, if Northwoods had the hallmark of the CIA then what has that particular agency carried out that we are not aware of?
Operation Northwoods reminds us, as if it were needed, that governments owe no allegiance to the people that elect them. The cry that ‘they’d never do that’ can be dismissed with hard evidence – government documents. The Joint Chiefs would have carried out the plan if Kennedy hadn’t blocked it.
This outright rejection could have been one of the reasons behind Kennedy’s assassination little over a year later.
