In August 1964, the United States entered the Vietnam War after reports of an unprovoked attack in the Gulf of Tonkin. But the reports were false — and the president knew it.
In August 1964, the USS Maddox destroyer was stationed in the Gulf of Tonkin off the coast of North Vietnam.
On August 2, it was attacked by North Vietnamese torpedo boats. And then, two days later, on August 4, the Johnson administration claimed that it had been attacked again. After the second attack, the U.S. Congress passed a resolution almost unanimously allowing the federal government to “take all necessary measures” to protect U.S. forces in Vietnam.

US Repeats Claim That Russia May Conduct ‘False Flag’ to Justify Ukraine Invasion

The accusation suggests the US will blame any escalation in the region on Russia regardless of who is responsible
Posted on egories

The Biden administration continues to suggest that Russia might carry out a “false flag” operation against separatists in eastern Ukraine to justify an invasion. Russia has repeatedly rejected the accusation, and the US has offered no evidence, but that hasn’t stopped Biden officials from making the claim.
In an interview with CBS, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said the US is “watching very carefully” for a false flag.
