I'm not ready to say that what happened yesterday was a false flag event propagated by the US NatSec/Intelligence state, but I'm curious, has there ever been anything similar staged by that group which American military personnel have been killed? A friend is asking, because for him, the idea that we would kill our own military is unfathomable (and by that I mean killing them in a direct manner, not in the passive manner we slowly kill them). I know we've done plenty of false flags to kill people on other countries, and maybe even in our own country (9/11), but I'm specifically looking for examples where we killed American military personnel.

    The closest I can think of is the plot to set off a bomb in Miami (I think?) and blame Cuba that never came to fruition.

    old swedish russian shenanigans

    In 1788, the head tailor at the Royal Swedish Opera received an order to sew a number of Russian military uniforms. These were then used by the Swedes to stage an attack on Puumala, a Swedish outpost on the Russo-Swedish border, on 27 June 1788. This caused an outrage in Stockholm and impressed the Riksdag of the Estates, the Swedish national assembly, who until then had refused to agree to an offensive war against Russia. The Puumala incident allowed King Gustav III of Sweden, who lacked the constitutional authority to initiate unprovoked hostilities without the Estates' consent, to launch the Russo-Swedish War (1788–1790).

    Tbh, I think all documents indicating such would be burned, and it would be higher than military, some seal type of guys, so unlikely to find out that it happened.

    Unless you willing to discuss with your friend some stochastic type shit, where you park 10000 military guys to harass population and wait for fireworks

    Or rich history of term “friendly fire”
