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.

Yep. And Susan Rice lied about it for months.
Hey, those guys look kind of familiar...
Marco Rubio, who is the vice chairman of Senate Intel, said the same.
Something that both parties agree with is much less suspect than some partisan utterings of backbenchers.
Come on! We all know the world’s false flag experts are the FBI.
Democrats and Hellywood with FBI/CIA help stage this crap all the time.
Remember, the left always accuse others of what they do themselves.
Since Democrats are in charge, you are bound to be 97% correct. They do it so often, so predictably, it would be foolish to expect otherwise of any rat administration from Clinton to the present day.
Reminds me of the fake “Innocence of Muslims” video that Obama and Hillary tried to pass off as justification for the Cairo riot, Sudan riot, Pakistan riot, and of course Benghazi, where the “spontaneous rioters” remembered to bring along military RPGs (instead of protest signs) and were unusually skilled in the use of grenade launchers, etc.
Whatever happened to fake radio broadcasts from Gleiwitz?
Heard on Sebastian Gorka show today... that the body cam footage of the two aircraft full of illegal aliens being left at a Westchester, NY small airport 1.) was filmed by Westchester County deputies 2.) the deputies encountered and conversed with see eye ehhhh plainclothes agents working IN THE USA!!! 3.) and IDENTIFIED the Aircraft Leasing company that delivered the most definitely NOT children but young men of fighting age.
The Aircraft was supplied by a CIA front company formerly employed in IRAQ. Gorka NAMES them repeatedly.
So the seeing eye dogs are shifting illegals and completely unscreened foreign males around the US in secret. The Agency is NOT ALLOWED TO OPERATE ON US SOIL-— their mission is foreign soil only. The quotes on the body cam are from AGENTS trying to talk around what they were doing to WESTCHESTER police.. and saying “this needs to be kept secret because if the public found out they would know the US Government has betrayed the Citizens of the USA!” AMAZING. They are criminally breaking the immigration laws of the USA.
That doesn’t explain this claim at all. If the US wanted to “start” a war it would be US troops massing on the border of Russia, not Russian troops massing on the border with Ukraine. Note that Russia previously used claims of Ukrainian aggression to justify taking over lands to “protect” ethnic Russians living there, and that was before grabbing Crimea.
Putin has already made it clear he wants all of Ukraine, and then some.
You don’t “start” a war by predicting your opponent will carry out a “false flag”... Predicting your opponent will do so is at most, an attempt by a weak administration that is in no way prepared to fight a war, to avoid the risks of directly punching the Russians in the nose, such as what Trump did to take out a number of Russian mercs. Biden doesn’t want Putin to embarrass him. He just wants Putin to wait and take Ukraine on someone else’s watch.
They also tried yo blame the Katyn Forest massacre on the Germans. And more recently the Russians and Dems tried to make a claim similar to today’s and “predict” that the Bush admin would, to save face, produce fake video of all the Iraqi wmds and weapons (that Russian forces were carefully flying and trucking out of Iraq to Syria and Lebanon during the delays at the UN in the run-up before the Iraq War.)
"While the planned video—using real corpses, actors as mourners, faked Ukrainian military equipment—sounds crazy, American officials think it might have worked. And they hope blowing the whistle will stop the plan in its tracks.
Russia, the officials said, intended to use the video to accuse Ukraine of “genocide” against Russian-speaking people. It would then use the report to justify an attack or have separatist leaders in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine invite a Russian intervention.
Officials would not release any direct evidence of the Russian plan or how they learned of it, saying to do so would compromise their sources and methods.
But both the recent disinformation campaign focused on false accusations of genocide and recent the political actions being taken in the Russian parliament lend credence to the intelligence.
Avril D. Haines, the director of National Intelligence, and other top administration officials briefed members of Congress on the material on Thursday. Details of the information have also been shared with allies, as the United States and Britain push a kind of intel diplomacy.
A British government official said that they had done their own analysis on the intelligence and had high confidence that Russia was planning to engineer a pretext to blame Ukraine for an attack. The details are “credible and extremely concerning,” the official said."

Laughable, if it weren’t so serious.
So true. But Putin shouldn't expect to get away with the crap that Hillary can get away with.
Apparently the guy was sentenced to 1 year in jail and 4 years of supervised probation for the probation violation that they used as a distraction for something else.
"In August 2013, Nakoula was released from prison to serve his remaining sentence in a halfway house, and then to be on probation for the next four years.[50] On 26 September 2013, he was released from the halfway house to the custody of Pastor Wiley Drake of First Southern Baptist Church in Buena Park, California.[51]"
Maybe if Putin could invade Ukraine because there is an anti-Islam movie producer suspected to be in Ukraine. Then he could get the American press on his side.
“Always accuse your enemy of what you are doing. Alinksy 101.”
Yep, and they are sloppy at it. Some Donbas militia reported to the command that the former Eric Prince’s boys tried to recruit them, tempting them with Green Cards and hefty sums of money.
The plan was to have about a dozen teams impersonating the Russian SSO and local militia to cause a chemical weapons incident and to film it.
Then one of the “Russians” was supposed to “defect” to Ukraine with the video and “spill the beans”.
DNR spokesman Ed Basurin aired extensive coverage on that.
