US says Russia planned fake video as ‘false flag’ to invade Ukraine
NYPost ^ | 02 03 2022 | Mark Moore

US officials said Thursday they are aware of a Kremlin scheme to broadcast a faked video of Ukrainian forces carrying out an attack against Russia or Russian proxies, which would serve as a pretext for an invasion by Moscow.

Pentagon press secretary John Kirby told reporters that the video would be “very graphic propaganda” and include images of “corpses, and actors that would be depicting mourners, and images of destroyed locations, as well as military equipment, at the hands of Ukraine or the West.”

The video, Kirby added, would even suggest that some of the equipment involved in the “attack” would be made to appear like “Western-supplied Ukrainian — to Ukraine — equipment.”

As part of an ongoing campaign to sow disinformation and destabilize the Kiev government, Russia intended to use the bogus video to accuse Kiev of genocide against Russian speakers, thereby justifying military action against its western neighbor.

“We’ve seen these kinds of activity by the Russians in the past,” Kirby added, “and we believe it’s important, when we see it like this — and we can — to call it out​,” ​he said.

Always accuse your enemy of what you are doing. Alinksy 101.

“Russia is going to film their own false-flag event; according to US officials”.

US officials know all about putting on false flag events.

I give “US officials” full credit for knowing a false-flag event when they see one.

US officials only have credibility with American Marxists and their Western European allies. No hyperbole, the US federal gov has virtually zero credibility the world over.

The pandemic no longer will allow their total control so now they will incite a war. Biden will then declare a national emergency and declare Martial Law. Then he will cancel elections for November because of the danger to our democracy and all will remain the same.

US says….?

That leaves a high level of doubt to the veracity of the statement.

I don’t believe anything the “US says”.

Reminds me of the Gleiwitz radio station incident in 1939. Nobody believed the Germans. Nobody but idiots believe the Biden Gang.
