Israel guilty of a "false flag" attack? Could it be?

What would Israel have to gain from deploying chemical weapons in Syria - with the blame falling on the Assad regime? Would it benefit Israel if the world - and especially the US - were to react by increasing support for the "Syrian Rebels", or perhaps even becoming directly involved in the conflict?

Would such a "false flag" attack be out of character for Israel?

In a 1954 incident known as "The Lavon Affair", Israel recruited a group of Jews living in Israel to plant bombs targeting Egyptian, British and US facilities. The idea was to blame Egyptian nationals, and to enrage the US and British in the hopes that the British would maintain troops in the Suez Canal Zone. Though the Israeli operatives were successful in fire-bombing an Egyptian post office, the US Information Agency and a British owned theater, their plans fell apart when one of the firebombs went off prematurely in the pocket of one of the False Flag saboteurs.

Israel immediately denied any involvement, and continued to deny for 51 years. In 2005 Israeli President Moshe Katzav officially honored the surviving conspirators with certificates of appreciation - effectively an official admission of what had long been common knowledge.

The USS Liberty Incident is yet another example of an Israeli False Flag attack that occurred during the Six Day War in 1967. During this incident, the USS Liberty, a virtually unarmed vessel assigned to monitor communications, was ruthlessly attacked by Israeli forces for several hours. The Israelis unleashed torpedoes, napalm and relentless machine gun fire on the helpless crew - killing 34 seamen, and injuring 171 others. The apparent goal of the attack was to sink the Liberty and lay the blame of the attack on Egypt (again), in the hopes of drawing the US into the war on the side of Israel.

The plan ultimately failed because in spite of the Israelis' best efforts, the Liberty stubbornly remained afloat, with its heroic crew members taking great risks to restore communications with their US counterparts.

As with the Lavon Affair, Israel denied and continues to deny that the attack on this US flagged ship was anything other than an "accident". I suspect we'll have to wait a few more years before Israel admits to the dastardly deed by "honoring" the soldiers who participated in the attack, as they did the perpetrators of the Lavon Affair.

More information on the Liberty Incident can be found here http://www.usslibertyveterans.org/ and here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident

Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of the Liberty Incident is that the story was officially hushed-up by the Johnson Administration, and that the survivors of this cut-throat attack were ordered not to speak of this tragic stab in the back by our "ally".

Israel and its infamous Mossad are well known for employing sinister, underhanded and deceptive tactics to achieve their goals. For example, it is well documented that Israeli Intelligence deliberately fed the US false information with the intent of goading the US into attacking Iraq in 2003.

There are many other incidents in which the Israelis have allegedly utilized false-flag operations, the above are only two examples that are well known and highly documented.

Is it possible that Israel may have deployed chemical weapons in Syria, as retired Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, Colin Powell's former chief of staff alleges in the article?

Certainly. "By Way Of Deception, Thou Shalt Do War."

While I am not in the least surprised when Israel pulls off such stunts, I am deeply troubled that in administration after administration, the US kowtows to the Zionist State, and that no matter how much trouble she causes us in blood, treasure and reputation, countless politicians from both parties line up to pledge fealty, and support them with cash, arms, technology and UN Security Council vetoes.

Whose interests are our elected officials representing, and at what cost to us?

A people's history of the United States by Howard Zinn is one of my favorites, This one is also a must read-

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fifty-Years-War-Israel-Arabs/dp/0140268278

The Road to Serfdom by Hayek is essentially the libertarian bible, and worth a peek, but it's more for academic review of the arguments for certain market ideas.

I haven't gotten to this one yet, but it's on my list...

http://www.amazon.com/Way-Deception-Making-Unmaking-Officer/dp/0971759502/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1228604682&sr=1-1

The history of Afghanistan from formation to present also very intriguing read, as is the British Empires fucking around during the Ottoman Empire days- it laid the groundwork for several of the struggles we see today in the middle east.

The teachings of Buddha and the lessons of attachment getting in the way of enlightment also very interesting stuff.

And reading lots of science fiction is an uncanny way of reading tomorrow's headlines today. :-)

This book went down in flames as far as the author's history and credibility, however, history has shown that this book is 95% dead on with all of its' statements and research, and the author comitting suicide adds a dash of Vince Foster to the soup....

Steven Covey's The Road Less Traveled and 7 habits is worth a peek if you can ignore his silly religious crap he tries to tie into all of his musings near the end.

Why limit yourself to fiction? Here are a couple of nonfiction books that are great:

u/avengingturnip · 2 pointsr/Intelligence

By Way of Deception, The Big White Lie, Reluctant Spy, and The Devil's Chessboard are a few that come to mind immediately.

u/TheCrimsonKing · 2 pointsr/worldnews

Victor Ostrovsky (Former Mossad case agent) described the assassination of El-Mashad in his book By Way of Deception. He described the assassination of Gerald Bull, the Canadian engineer, as well.

"By Way Of Deception" by Victor Ostrovsky

If you are interested in this article, I highly recommend this book.

The book By Way of Deception published around '91, and purportedly written by a disenchanted Mossad agent asserted the same thing.

Also, I think it's interesting that the framing of the conflict is presented as a foregone conclusion: The U.S. military against the Tea Partiers. Setting Man against Man, as in "Let's You & Him Fight"

Hmmm... who thought that one up? I wonder if it's those people who wage war by way of deception

Why not All Americans vs. The Zionist Machine that has hijacked our Republic?
