Operation Northwoods

In this jaw-dropping episode, we dive into one of the most shocking declassified government proposals in American history - Operation Northwoods. Drafted in 1962 by the U.S. Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, this plan proposed staging false flag terrorist attacks on American soil to justify military action against Cuba. From faked airplane hijackings to orchestrated bombings, Operation Northwoods reads like a political thriller - but it was very real. Join us as we explore the origins of the plan, the Cold War mindset that fueled it, and the ethical questions it raises about truth, power, and national security. Was this a necessary evil in the name of protection, or a terrifying step too far? Tune in as we break down the documents, the players involved, and the lasting legacy of a conspiracy that came dangerously close to reality.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/truth-be-told-paranormal--3589860/support.
