Operation Northwoods and 9/11

September 4, 10:52 PMUS Intelligence ExaminerFred Burks

Was the Operation Northwoods plan to blow up a drone plane over Cuba in the early 1960s a precursor to 9/11? Revealing declassified government documents raise this possibility.

As stated in the opening paragraph of this ABC News report on Operation Northwoods, "In the early 1960s, America's top military leaders reportedly drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S. cities to create public support for a war against Cuba. The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community into supporting a war to oust Cuba's then new leader, communist Fidel Castro."

The declassified Operation Northwoods documents also describe a detailed plan to secretly blow up a drone plane over Cuba and blame it on Castro as a pretext for starting war. Note that the existence of drone planes was kept secret for "national security" reasons until the the 1990s. Yet as these documents clearly show, drones were being used in military operational plans almost 50 years ago. As quoted from the official Operation Northwoods papers:

It is possible to create an incident which will demonstrate convincingly that a Cuban aircraft has attacked and shot down a chartered civil airliner enroute from the United States. The destination would be chosen only to cause the flight plan to cross Cuba. The passengers could be a group of college students off on a holiday.

An aircraft at Eglin AFB would be painted and numbered as an exact duplicate for a civil registered aircraft belonging to a CIA proprietary organization in the Miami area. At the designated time the duplicate would be substituted for the actual civil aircraft and would be loaded with selected passengers, all boarded under carefully prepared aliases. The actual aircraft would be converted to a drone.

The drone aircraft and the actual aircraft will be scheduled to allow a rendezvous south of Florida. From the rendezvous point the passenger-carrying aircraft will descend to minimum altitude and go directly into an auxiliary field at Eglin AFB where arrangements will have been made to evacuate the passengers.

The drone aircraft meanwhile will continue to fly the filed flight plan. When over Cuba the drone will be transmitting on the international distress frequency a “MAY DAY” message stating he is under attack by Cuban MIG aircraft. The transmission will be interrupted by destruction of the aircraft which will be triggered by radio signal.

Note that these Operation Northwoods documents were accepted and signed by the top generals of each branch of the military. You can verify and read them for yourself using the information at this link. The only reason these plans were not implemented is that the Kennedy administration rejected them. Had the plans been used, they would never have been declassified. Operational plans often remain classified indefinitely for reasons of national security, especially when they involve deceit of the public.

Some 9/11 researchers suspect that the planes used on 9/11 were actually drones like that mentioned in Operation Northwoods. There is ample evidence that the men who were claimed to be the 9/11 terrorist pilots according to the official story did not have the skill to fly those planes so precisely into their targets.

Over 200 pilots and aviation professionals have gone on record questioning how these ill-trained terrorist pilots could have done what they did. Among these many concerned pilots are Lt. Col. Jeff Latas, former board president of USAF Accident Investigation, and John Lear, the son of Bill Lear, who founded the Lear Jet Corporation. Could it be that rogue elements of government used drone planes on 9/11 to forward their own secret agendas in concert with the agendas of elements within the power elite of our world?

Remember that government and military leaders often think of politics like a chess game. Sometimes you have to sacrifice your own pieces in order to win the game. Zbigniew Brzezinski, former U.S. National Security Advisor and co-founder of the Trilateral Commission, titled his 1998 book The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives. In this seminal book on American foreign policy, Brzezinksi states that because of popular resistance to U.S. military expansionism, his ambitious strategy for "American global primacy" can’t be implemented "except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat." (The Grand Chessboard, page 211).

Is it beyond comprehension that tactics similar to Operation Northwoods might have been used in relation to the 9/11 attacks in order to create "a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat?" Could 9/11 have been the pretext upon which to build a War on Terror in order to "maintain global US preeminence?" Might the 9/11 attacks have been allowed to happen, or even facilitated and manipulated by elements of the U.S. government and military in concert with the power eilte?
