Drones: The Perfect False Flag Weapon
Austin continues to lie and state idiotic military responses while realistic explanations can be identified
Published: 2024-02-01
Introduction
In SSR: Drilling Down from Tower 22 an idea which had been lurking in my subconscious lept forth, that drones form a very powerful false flag weapon. This is a sufficiently relevant idea that expressing it in written form may be useful.
A false flag incident is merely an event, usually military, which is attributed to a group which did not actually perform the action. We can be thankful to the independent media for elevating this term from the dungeons of "conspiracy theorist" thinking to acceptable known historical fact.
Human control
An artillery shell has no means of changing direction, no aerodynamic surfaces, which is deliberate for it is uncontrolled and the only way to aim it is if it does not have these. Accordingly, with an impact crater, possibly assisted by local observation of the incoming shell, one can determine quite precisely from where the shell was launched. Thus, the party responsible for the firing can be limited to those who were in that area at the time.
A drone does have aerodynamic surfaces which are usually under the control of a human operator. All the operator requires is the ability to communicate with the drone. As we learned due to the protest of the mental anguish caused by doing this for the US DoD from whistleblowers like Daniel Hale and others before him, this control can happen from the other side of the planet. Thus, the area in which one can restrict those which are potentially responsible for the control of the drone is dependent upon its communications capacity.
If the drone has satellite communications capability the area of restriction is the whole of the planet including low earth orbit. To run a false flag operation using such a drone requires only that one has access to a drone made by the foreign party which one wishes to label as the perpetrator. Painting flags on the drone is a nice touch, but is irrelevant. Better is to have the actual tech and to master the ability to communicate with it.
With this capability all one needs do is to launch the drone within a distance to target of its flight capability, and for that flight to be able to be uninterrupted by signal jamming (or other electronic counter-measures) or air defenses.
The best manner of doing this is to add to the drone the capability to send a "Friend or Foe" signal which identifies the drone as belonging to the nation of the target for the initial flight path. At some point on approach, the identity assertion is removed so that the drone becomes unidentified and is then to be identified based upon its technology.
Would this be effective?
Yes. The party being attacked would not like the public to know that some unknown adversary has the ability to cloak attack drones in "Friend of Foe" signals. Indeed, they would also not like this to be known among their soldiers, airmen or sailors, as it may spread panic.
The US has also displayed a pattern of behaviour goading would be adversaries into attacking them (e.g Pearl Harbor) or generating false flags (Gulf of Tonkin). Additionally, the US has covered up deliberate attacks on its military by allies (USS Liberty).
Motivation
It is accepted among analysts free to speak their mind that the best thing that could happen for genocidal Zionist governed Israel is for the USA to become involved in a large scale hot war with any and all of Israel's enemies in southwest Asia. I'll go beyond that. This is the only thing which can save Israel, and even that is unlikely to succeed. It is a fools errand for the US to attempt to save Israel via participation in a hot war in southwest Asia.
Israel is heavily motivated to use the exact scenario outlined above to generate this response from the US. Ray McGovern has been warning of his serious concern for a false flag operation to generate this foolhardy response by the US.
I share his concern, and now offer the above analysis of a drone based false flag as a possible, and likely successful, scenario. It is for this reason that I have been paying so much attention to the details of the attack on Tower 22 and/or al Tanf.
The conundrum which the US DoD finds itself in is how to deal with this false flag threat. How can it protect its "forward deployed" troops against drone attack? They have obviously failed at Tower 22 and are still trying to work out *how* the 'one-way attack drone' passed their defenses. One scenario for this is as outlined above.
The solution to their problem is obvious. Leave the region.
Lyin' Arse Austin
Following Ms. Singh and Gen. Ryder, US Secretary of State Austin offered himself to the media on 2024-02-01.
After a discussion of Austin's battle with prostate cancer took up the vast majority of Austin’s time, the matter of the incident at Tower 22/al Tanf, the US response to which may cause the deaths of tens of thousands of people, scraped into the final part of the press conference.
Austin stated:
Our fallen soldiers had a vital mission: to support Operation Inherent Resolve and to work with our partners to ensure the lasting defeat of ISIS. They risked their lives -- and lost their lives -- to keep their fellow Americans safe from global terrorism.
The 'lasting defeat of ISIS' has been Austin's refrain and is the political justification for the US continued, illegal presence in Syria, and unwelcome, risky presence in Iraq. The US DoD has obviously failed if this was their objective was the ‘lasting defeat of ISIS’, and thus it is clearly not so. Which is to say that Lyin' Arse Austin is at it again.
His second point is also abjectly false.
They risked their lives -- and lost their lives -- to keep their fellow Americans safe from global terrorism.
The US DoD's efforts in Iraq alone, since 2003, have been documented to have caused the deaths of well over 700 000 people and the internal displacement of well over 5 million. The Syrian Dirty war added significantly to this total. These nations in which the US DoD has placed its troops either illegally or against the will of the nation in which they are present has generated entirely justified, intense animosity from the local populations. That armed groups in these nations may be supported by other nations is irrelevant. The hatred is local, real and justified. It is not going away until the US DoD goes away first.
Thus, by staying in the region the US DoD is not keeping "fellow Americans safe". The local populations and many in the West consider the US DoD the local “terrorists” or one of a collection of local groups using terrorism (violence to achieve political objectives). The local populations are disinterested in Austin’s sanctimonious lies.
Austin continues:
We will continue to work to avoid a wider conflict in the region, but we will take all necessary actions ...
Austin rolls out another whopper with "continue to work to avoid wider conflict". The organisation you head started it, Austin. Iraq's political parties have called for you to withdraw your troops from their territory because purely your presence induces attacks. They even tell you why, because the US is supporting the genocidal Israelis killing their cousins in Gaza.
You are, quite deliberately, putting your troops at risk of death and injury.
Austin is lost as how to sell the current attempted attribution for what Gen. Ryder stated was an attack on Tower 22:
Q: -- Iran knew about the attack in Jordan or how operationally it was involved?
SEC. AUSTIN: You know, we believe that this was done by …
You believe, do you? On what evidence do you base this belief? Will you not nail your position to the mast and say "we have evidence which strongly supports our belief"? No, you chose not to.
We are left to speculate on why you have chosen not to provide any evidence. The above consideration of the effectiveness of and Israel's motivation for the use of a drone to generate the response, which you have just declared you may follow, is filling that void, Austin.
I assert that the scenario I have offered is a plausible explanation for what happened at Tower 22.
Austin and his colleagues have yet to offer one, and they have the data. The reason they have not may well be exactly because of this. They have yet to answer the question most important to them, how did the ‘one way attack drone’ bypass their defences? The scenario above may contain an answer to that exact question, and if so, would explain why they are not giving this information to anyone.
A Unity of Illogical Purpose
Secretary of State Austin has joined his master, President Biden, in offering a course of action equally stupid. Back in mid-January soon after Operation Prosperity Guardian Papa's Garden got under way and was proving totally unfit for purpose Biden was asked about this minor problem. His response was so indicative that it hit not only the independent media but the MSM too.
After U.S. forces bombed Yemen without congressional authorization for the fourth time in a week, President Joe Biden admitted Thursday that the airstrikes aren't stopping Houthi attacks in the Red Sea—but said the bombing would continue regardless.
"Well, when you say 'working'—are they stopping the Houthis? No," Biden said in response to a reporter's question. "Are they gonna continue? Yes."
Austin's stance after some unknown entity has attacked their base at Tower 22, and possibly al Tanf, is that he doesn't know who attacked but that:
we will respond when we choose, where we choose, and how we choose
Which is to say that he is not only a liar, but an idiot like his boss.
The message being delivered by Iraq is as clear as daylight. You, US, are putting your troops at risk by being here. Iraq’s political parties are doing all they can to restrain these paramilitaries, and this effort is straining their political influence to breaking point.
As Timour Azhari reported for Reuters, the amount of political effort required to restrain elements of the Iraqi defense system extends to Iran have to be directly involved. The combined message is simple.
GTFO!
