A false flag op?

WAS the Orlando shootings an act of terrorism or another false flag operation?

In the heat of the election season in the United States and such “shooting incident” occurs, the thinking class will surely include in the list the possibility that the latest incident can be labeled as another covert operation. But who benefits?

A logical analysis from Stephen Lendman published at Global Research online puts it: “It’s too soon to know whether Sunday’s Orlando incident was terrorism or false flag deception.”

Yet it has distinct earmarks of the latter, likely the latest example of domestic state terror, another fear-mongering pretext for out-of-control militarism, endless wars of choice, and domestic repression, America more a police state than free society on a slippery slope toward full-blown tyranny.

“Muslims are alleged Washington’s few evil geniuses target of choice, falsely blamed for numerous state-sponsored domestic crimes–9/11 the mother of all false flags. It’s a pity that the American public is reportedly made to believe the Islamophobia scare bogey,” according to the editorial of Manila Times, June 15, 2016.

Convincing evidence indicates the alleged Boston bombers, San Bernardino bombers, Sandy Hook shooter, a shoe bomber, an underwear bomber, Times Square bomber, shampoo bombers, synagogue bombers, and numerous other convenient patsies blamed for similar incidents were victims of elaborate hoaxes, state-sponsored false flag deception.

Pre-dawn Sunday, alleged heavily armed gunman Omar Mateen managed to kill or wound over 100 individuals at Orlando’s Pulse LGBT nightclub before city Swat police killed him.

According to Townhall.com, Omar Mateen, an American with Afghan bloodline, worked with the Department of Homeland Security and was employed by G4S Security Company as a licensed professional security guard with the capability to carry firearms on duty and passed all the security clearance and background checks. G4S security was contracted by the DHS to protect federal buildings, nuclear facilities, etc. All his firearms are legal and with permits.

Dead men tell no tales. All we know is what authorities say and the mainstream media repeat without due diligence checking.

Another dead end? Until another so-called investigation will unearth evidence or clues that can lead to the real mastermind of the shooting. But in the meantime, the world has to be wary of the possible consequences this event has created or will create in the process. Just like the impact that was created after the Sept. 11, 2001 or what is known as 9/11 terror attack in the heart of the mainland US.

One of the impacts was analyzed by Mike Larson (editor of Safe Money Report) in his article “Terror Hits Home in Worst US Mass Shooting on Record.” He writes: “As a financial analyst and writer, it’s also my job to put acts like these into a broader context–particularly with regards to what it means for markets. I said earlier this year that Europe’s economy could suffer in the wake of recent terrorist attacks there, and that those attacks were just in a list of reasons to avoid overcommitting capital to the region.

“I actually think the economic impact will be more muted here. Tragic ‘lone wolf’ attacks, like the one in Orlando, can happen at any time. They may have a short-term impact on tourism.

“But the US is still perceived as a safer destination, in part because we are much farther removed geographically from some of the world’s worst hotspots. It also doesn’t seem that terrorist groups like Isis have the same kind of on-the-ground personnel and support networks here that they have in the Middle East or Europe.

“If anything, this kind of news will likely reinforce the resolve of whichever presidential candidate wins this fall to boost defense spending. The goal? Take the fight to our enemies on their home turf, so they can’t hit us as hard in our own back yard.”

Sounds familiar? Another one of those “history repeating itself” scenarios because of the impending (or some say, ongoing) financial collapse, another war is needed just like what happened in the past two world wars.

Such war that will keep the war machines or the M-I-C, military industrial complex working and prop up a dying economy by reviving a dead foreign enemy that started this global war on terror (Gwot).
