Are they planning a false flag attack on London?

Key Markets report for Wednesday, 27 November 2024

This report will soon be published on my personal Substack, with video.

Yesterday, as I was finalizing my new report about the financial collapse of Great Britain, which is the follow-up to my August 26 article "The Coming Collapse of Britain," YouTube randomly suggested to me a short video by one Craig Houston titled, "Why are ALL LONDON webcams offline...?" What? Did I read that right??? I was nearly floored: Mr. Houston searched hundreds of Webcams across London and could not find a single one that was live. See for yourself here and here! That's extremely odd; clearly someone had to have made the decision to switch them off - they couldn't all have failed for random reasons. One of the webcams over Westminster bridge displayed the last image it recorded: it was on 2 September at 16:51, which at least gives us a clue about when the Heart of Darkness went dark to the world. However, the reason why someone would decide to cut all the webcams is a mystery.

Mr. Houston didn't offer any explanations, which is understandable given that he lives in Britain where singing, "kung fu fighting," or silently praying on the sidewalk can get you arrested. But where he declined to tread, I'll venture a guess, and I think it's the only explanation that makes any sense: they're planning a false-flag terror attack on London which they'll blame on Russia, so that they can trigger an all-out, whole-of-society mobilization by all of the Western powers against Russia. Now, if this seems far-fetched, there are now several important elements that fit coherently with this scenario, starting with the general geopolitical state of things.

Western empire and in particular the UK, bet heavily on Ukraine and lost. By now the situation has become as undeniable as it is hopeless. But Western powers aren't showing any inclination to cut and run, like they did from Vietnam in March of 1972 or Afghanistan in August 2021. In spite of facing the world's largest nuclear power with established escalatory dominance in the region and a mobilized, highly trained, motivated and battle hardened army equipped with devastating conventional weaponry that eclipses anything the West has in its depleted arsenals, they are still escalating. Why?

Ukraine is too important and the stakes could not be higher. From the imperial cabal's point of view, the stake is the whole world. In his paper, “Democratic Ideals and Reality,” Sir Halford Mackinder wrote that, “Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland; who rules the Heartland commands the World-island; who rules the World-island controls the world.” By World-island, Mackinder meant the Eurasian landmass.

His theoretical framework remained the foundation of foreign policy for British and American governments to this very day, as we learned from Wes Mitchell, Donald Trump's Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs as recently as 2018. In a briefing to the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he made it explicit that the “central aim of the Administration’s foreign policy is to defend US domination of Eurasian landmass as the foremost US national security interest and to prepare the nation for this challenge.”

Mitchell also said that the Administration was “working with our close ally the UK to form an international coalition for coordinating efforts in this field.” These views are not just idle musings of think tanks or academics; the reality on the ground confirms that this is indeed how the imperial cabal regards the outcome of the battle for Ukraine. From the beginning of the war, a few of their lieutenants vented the mindset:

• ''If we lose in Ukraine, the world order we created 80 years ago will crumble" - then US Chief of Staff Mark Milley, April 2022

• “If we lose in Ukraine, we will lose the world for decades. Defeat in Ukraine could be the beginning of the end of the golden age of the West." - Mateusz Morawiecki, Poland’s Prime Minister in a TV address, April 2023.

• “If Ukraine loses, world order will be established by our enemies” - former NATO Secretary General (1999-2003) and member of the House of Lords of the British Parliament George Robertson in The Telegraph, Jan. 2024

• "if Ukraine falls it would be a catastrophe for the West, it would be the end of Western hegemony and we will have no one to blame but ourselves." - Boris Johnson, in a short video message, April 2024

It is unlikely that the empire's vested interests will quietly accept this "catastrophe." This is why they are escalating provocations against Russia, desperately hoping that the Russians will strike at a NATO member nation, creating the pretext to invoke Article 5 of the NATO Treaty and unleash a unified response where the collective West would confront Russia in a whole-of-society mobilization effort and hopefully snatch a victory out of the jaws of defeat.

Sometimes provocations work and they trigger the intended response. An example was the Pearl Harbour attack, which galvanized the unwilling Americans to join the World War II effort. Another was the attack on RMS Lusitania in 1915, and another the current Ukraine war. But there are circumstances when a galvanizing event must be orchestrated to detonate the greater conflict, and the list of known examples through history is very long. Here's just a few cases:

• The Manchuria, or "Mukden" Incident in September 1931: Japanese troops set off an explosion on a train track owned by a Japanese company, blamed it on China in order to justify an invasion of Manchuria.

• Attack on Gleiwitz Radio station in September 1939: the Nazis shelled the station and accused Polish troops for the deed, giving Hitler the pretext to launch the invasion of Poland

• Shelling of Mainila in November 1939: Soviets shelled the Russian village of Mainila and blamed the Finns, triggering the USSR attack on Finland

• Operation Northwoods in March 1962: the operation was shut down by President Kennedy, but US Joint Chiefs of Staff planned a campaign of terror against civilian targets in Miami in order to "create a helpful wave of national indignation and lead to a US invasion of Cuba.

• Gulf of Tonkin Incident in August 1964: two US destroyers stationed in the Gulf of Tonkin radioed that they had been targeted by the North Vietnamese forces, triggering US Congress to pass the "Gulf of Tonkin Resolution" and authorize President Johnson to go "all in" in Vietnam.

• "September 11" terror attacks in 2001: they helped the Bush 43 administration launch their excellent Global War on Terror and radically reduce civil liberties at home

• Ghouta Chemical attack in August 2013: orchestrated by Western proxy force with the help of the British-led White Helmets, a chemical attack on civilians in Ghouta was blamed on Bashar Al Assad's forces. If the charge stuck, it would have crossed the "red line" for U.S. and NATO intervention in Syria

The examples are very numerous and another one, aimed at triggering World War III against Russia wouldn't be unusual in the context of history. If the population are taken by surprise and genuinely believe the official narratives about the attack, this does invariably create the "helpful waves of indignation," allowing the country's leadership to wrap themselves in the flag, promise justice whatever the cost, and start moving the pieces irreversibly toward military escalation.

I believe that this is the reason why Western powers are encouraging Ukraine to strike into Russia with their missiles, even though there is almost nothing to gain and such escalation clearly makes them the belligerents in the conflict. This is why suddenly, the U.S. is discussing providing Ukraine with nuclear Weapons. They want Russia to respond impulsively, but they know Russia most probably won't take the bait. That's where the false flag comes in, probably in the shape of the detonation of a nuclear weapon in London.

I can't imagine how this could be done. I imagine there's very tight custody chain control with every warhead warehoused by any Western power. But if such weapons were given to Ukraine, that's where the custody chain would end. From there, the warheads could be free to roam and drift back to serve false flag purposes, perhaps on routine military flights, or in ordinary shipping containers. If such a device were detonated from a shipping container, say, on a ship, a train or a truck, some Webcam might catch the event.

But if all the Webcams were dark, the news could report that it was a Russian missile. And it would be very unlikely that anybody could ever prove otherwise. If such images ever did surface, they'd almost certainly be few and they could be quickly traced and removed from circulation. If there's another coherent explanation for why all of London's Webcams went dark in early September, I can't even begin to imagine it.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I considered not sharing the above musings today. For one thing, I could be wrong - that much is obvious. And then it's a downer - nothing to be thankful for. But if I happen to be right... The one way false flag events can fail is if the public sees through them. False flag attack planners must ambush the people and strike at them from the clear blue skies. A spectacular event like 9/11 will have a powerful impact on people's emotions and in that moment they'll be susceptible to deceptive narratives and that "helpful wave of indignation" will materialize. But if the public is forewarned and expects that a false flag might take place, they'll almost certainly suspect that it was "an inside job," and the attack might blow back into the conspirators' faces. I have therefore decided to take risks with my American readers' long weekend and to also risk embarrassing myself.

In the thick of the Covid 19 pandemic, Dr. Mike Yeadon - one of the true scientists who saw through the hoax and did not fear to speak out about it, said that this is the time to be brave. He wasn't saying that we should go out and tackle police officers or charge against tanks with Molotov cocktails. He was talking about taking the risk of being wrong, of embarrassing oneself. It is easier and safer to be silent about all this.

But we need to be brave and speak out like our children's future depends on it. Alex Jones predicted the 9/11 attack weeks ahead of time, but back then, his warning sounded so utterly crazy and preposterous, nobody would risk discrediting themselves by sharing Alex's bombshell. In fact, few would even admit to listening to Jones. Few still do. But then again... if he was wrong, so what? If I'm wrong, nothing happens. If I'm right however, this information could change history.

I'm not an American citizen, but my children are, so I'll allow myself to do the American thing today and express my profound gratitude for all the subscribers who read these reports which, like today, verge on excessively long. You all came for the signals but I kept you for the sermon. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!
