Of Psyops and False Flags

You’ll find that there are no such things as “coincidences” and that the truth is out there, and it has nothing to do with aliens or UFOs.

Let’s start the new year off with a leisurely stroll along the beach and a bit of nonsense from a classic poem. Somehow, it just seems very appropriate.

‘The time has come,' the Walrus said,

To talk of many things:

Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —

Of cabbages — and kings —

And why the sea is boiling hot —

And whether pigs have wings.'

—excerpt from The Walrus and the Carpenter by Lewis Carroll

Of Psyops and False Flags

by C. A. Matthews

This first of the year’s disturbing news in New Orleans and Las Vegas reminded me that I hadn’t written a “book report” on a fantastic book I finished reading recently. JFK and the Unspeakable by James W. Douglass is a book everyone should read thoroughly and keep on their bookshelf for quick reference whenever things in the world start to seem too nonsensical or too coincidental to be quite true. Often you’ll find that there are no such things as “coincidences” and that the truth is out there, and it has nothing to do with aliens or UFOs (UAPs).

Who or what is the Unspeakable? Douglass considers the outlook of theologian/peace activist Thomas Merton when he observed a growing systemic evil that defies speech. He quotes Merton in 1965:

One of the awful facts of our age is evidence that [the world] is stricken, indeed, stricken to the very core of its being by the presence of the Unspeakable... It is the void that contradicts everything that is spoken even before the words are said; the void that gets into the language of public and official declarations at the very moment when they are pronounced that ring dead with the hollowness of the abyss. It is the voice out of which Eichmann drew the punctilious exactitude of his obedience…”

Douglass himself describes the Unspeakable as the void in the US doctrine of “plausible deniability” sanctioned by National Security directive NSC 10/2. This gives the CIA a green light to assassinate national leaders, overthrow governments, and lie to cover up any trace of accountability, all for the sake of promoting American interests and maintaining nuclear-backed dominance.

Douglass’ book is a masterpiece in unraveling and explaining not just the method in which John F. Kennedy was assassinated—it’s also a primer on how the American security state (ASS?) along with its allies in business and the military work together as a unit to reach their goals. He also illuminates the motives behind the security state’s actions. Yes, even spooks have reasons for killing and couping and generally causing chaos and confusion around the world. They may not be moral or sane reasons, but they do have them.

Whenever something awful happens and, on second glance, it appears to be something it’s not, savvy folks should immediately start researching the who or what that could be behind the death and destruction. After reading JFK and the Unspeakable I have a better grasp on just how these Unspeakable forces operate. I have a lot more respect for those who are willing to dive deep and research and investigate these evil forces’ activities.

Douglass isn’t into “Conspiracy Theory”—a term actually created by the CIA to discredit anyone or anything that comes too close to the truth of what they are actually doing at a certain point in time. I’m not into conspiracy theorizing, either. I’m into simplifying the complexities of the methods that the security state uses against We the People in order to keep us in our place. Simply put, the spooks want to stop ordinary people from sticking our noses into their business, potentially embarrassing them, or exposing their questionable actions to the world.

We must be brave. We can’t let them bamboozle us. We can’t let them shame us into silence.

But, of course, the mainstream media will do its masters’ bidding. It readily calls those who search for the truth “conspiracy theorists” or “conspiracy nuts”. Perhaps we shouldn’t totally discount the “nuts’” who risk their own safety or lives to discover the truth. I say it’s far better to have multiple theories at hand to explain what’s happening than to blindly accept the propaganda the Ministry of Truth dishes out via their pundits in way of an explanation.

The similarities between the two US military veterans who committed these recent acts of terror in the US is uncanny. Shamsud-Din Jabbar, who ran over revelers in New Orleans late on New Year’s Eve, and Matthew Livelsberger, who blew up a Tesla Cyber Truck full of fireworks next to the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas early on New Year’s Day, had much in common. Those commonalities immediately brought out comments online of their actions being a part of a false flag event, a horrific staged event used to blame a political enemy as a pretext to start a war.

The more one reads about the Unspeakable security state and its methods of starting conflict and instability for its purposes, the more one will concede that these occurrences could very well be part of a larger possible false flag event.

Both veterans served at Fort Bragg/Fort Liberty. Both served in the Army in the US occupation of Afghanistan. Both used the same car rental app to rent their vehicles used in their attack. Fort Bragg is known for the 4^th Psychological Operations Group, famous for training the Green Berets and others in the use of psychological warfare tactics. One has to wonder if either Jabbar or Livelsberger had been a willing—or even an unwilling—participant in these psychological warfare techniques. Could somebody have been messing with their minds for nefarious purposes?

Referring back to what I learned in JFK and the Unspeakable, the parallels between Cold War veteran Lee Harvey Oswald and the two Ft. Bragg vets are fascinating. Oswald was probably lured into working for the CIA back in the late 1950s while serving as a Navy radar tech in post-war Japan. He might have been a participant in psyops or psychological warfare techniques.

Perhaps the two Afghan War vets were lured into thinking using acts of terror to provoke another war was a patriotic thing to do? These parallels make me suspicious that the same unspeakable security state is still hard at work trying to destroy the Soviet Union—or should we say “Russia”? It’s still one of the largest competitors to the US on the planet, and we all know how much capitalists hate competition.

To add creedence to the possible false flag scenario, an openly pro-Israeli “reporter” for the New York Post was allowed inside Jabbar’s house, an active crime scene, by the FBI to take video footage of a supposed bomb lab. Reporter Jennie Taer makes allegations on her video that she spied a Quran, a prayer rug, and even a keffiyah there.

Oh, no! Was Jabbar one of those “pro-Hamas” students we see protesting for Palestinian rights on college campuses? Yikes!

Or perhaps it’s more likely in this case that the $150 million the Israeli Knesset approved recently for hasbara is being put to good use. (Hasbara is propaganda meant to cover over Israel’s bad image due to their genocide of the Palestinian people.) I mean, whoever has heard of the FBI allowing a civilian to walk through and video a crime scene with fresh evidence just lying there, open to contamination?

Who’s to say that Jennie doesn’t work for Mossad, Israeli intelligence, and possibly tampered with the evidence in order to produce her shocking video? Do we even know if this “bomb lab” is for real or actually has anything to do with the New Orleans incident? Why should we take Jennie’s word for it?

All of these actions together sound like the perfect excuse for the US to go to war with Iran whenever Prime Minister Netanyahu decides it’s time for an invasion. After all, Trump’s cabinet picks have all been virulently anti-Iranian and pro-Israeli. They’re looking for a reason to jump into Israel’s fight against Iran in its goal to create a “Greater Israel.” If “ASS” can craft a reason for Americans to fear and loathe Iranians (along with other peoples in West Asia) then the Israelis will get their wish—more troops (US), more arms, and a lot more money to aid in their program of conquest.

Considering the US recently created the “automatic draft” to increase the size of its military for just such a war, the Israelis should be over-the-moon with excitement. Young Americans no longer have to sign up for the draft in order to get a college loan. Every male under the age of 26 is now automatically signed up to be drafted. How convenient!

Fleeing the draft and heading to Canada or Sweden isn’t going to work like it did in the 1960s, either. They’re also under the control of Big Oil and the Unspeakable American forces that seem to rule the world.

Big Oil concerns are looking for any reason to steal Iran’s oil reserves and control its ports. To keep the petrodollar stable, the US has to exert a firm control on the world’s oil supply. The military-industrial complex (MIC) is looking for any reason to sell more bombs, planes, drones, tanks and associated instruments of death. With business (Big Oil and the MIC), the US and Israeli armies, and the US security state (CIA/NSA/FBI and their allies’ equivalent agencies) working hand-in-hand, war with Iran is looking more likely with each and every passing day.

Don’t believe me? A bombing plot was foiled recently in south Florida aimed at the offices for AIPAC—the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. Oh dear! How “un-American” it is to not appreciate having another country giving millions of dollars to US politicians’ campaigns yearly! I’m sure Jennie Taer will have something to say about it. She’s probably working on the video even now...

After all, we can’t have our true rulers—the American Security State and Israel—being upset by our selfish need to be our own people and practice free speech and be at peace in the world and all that other nonsense. All hail the Unspeakable!

To quote from Mr. Carroll’s famous poem:

I weep for you,' the Walrus said:

I deeply sympathize.'

With sobs and tears he sorted out

Those of the largest size,

Holding his pocket-handkerchief

Before his streaming eyes.

‘O Oysters,' said the Carpenter,

‘You've had a pleasant run!

Shall we be trotting home again?'

But answer came there none —

And this was scarcely odd, because

They'd eaten every one.

Hmm, what’s that knocking I hear at my door?
