Spinning A False Flag

25.09.2005 22:09

So what were two undercover British soldiers up to in Basra?
 http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/article314977.ece

The media tries hard to spin the exposure of this False Flag Op, but my money's on the people who did NOT lie, in order to feign a justification for a war they knew to be illegal, which has already slaughtered over a hundred thousand innocent people.

These guys were caught dressed as Arabs and shooting at the Iraqi police. Then their car was found packed with explosives and detonators. Britain then broke these guys out of jail using tanks.

In other words, the UK has been caught creating the very terror events used to derail public support for the resistance to the occupation. So now the propagandists are trying to find a way to blame the whole mess on Iran.

Don't Fall for the PsyOps


Evidence Please?

there have been repeated claims on this site, that these tow were in possesion of explosives for terrorist purposes. Not once has evidence been produced to support it! They were engaged in surveillance duties.

And your evidence is...?

"There have been repeated claims on this site, that these tow were in possesion of explosives for terrorist purposes. Not once has evidence been produced to support it! They were engaged in surveillance duties."

Sez who, exactly? And where's the "evidence" for that?

Evidence?

just look at what Psyops/Jordan says in her comment, 'a car packed with explosives'. Look at similiar comments and articles on the newswire. Several have made this completeley unsubstantiated allegation. Some evidence and not supposition to back it up would be nice. Al jazeera showed the soldiers equipment, weapons, ammo, a 66mm rocket, comms and first aid kit, but no bomb making equipment at all! They were equipped for a surveillance job, this was not a 'false flag'.

I wouldn't hold your breath for people like Jordan to come and admit to fallaciously jumping the gun and that prisonplanet.com just makes any old shit up, and thereby salvage any credibility they had.

But rest assured they'll be back as soon as a new opportunity to spread vaccuous propaganda arises...
