Whether or not they had anything to do with Sandy Hook is then, not a question of "Would they?" rather, a question of, "did they?", and if so, "how?"
Operation Northwoods signed off by Joint Chiefs shows that, too.
I have often wondered if Alex Jones was sent out to use Operation Northwoods as a basis for his 9/11 Truther claims in order to desensitize people to the notion of Operation Northwoods.
People try to claim that Kennedy rejected Operation Northwoods. No , he didn’t.
He rejected military action according to the notation of someone at a meeting.
Again, who knows what really went on.
