Example: Every time Israel gets international pressure, a plane falls out of the sky. What is obvious is Israel's trouble-making, what is not obvious is what happens to the planes.
Are you seriously contenting that Israel is responsible for that recent plane crash?
Edit: I swear to God I'm starting to get sick of ATS and the idiots who frequent this website.

Wrong, it only fits the criteria if an event was staged by a Group A with the intention of Group B carrying the blame.
If an event occurs and Group A simply tries to lay the blame on Group B, it is manipulation, but it is NOT a False Flag.
Read the Wiki definition again: "covert operations conducted by governments, corporations, or other organizations".

Yes everything you posted fits with the definition of a false flag attack.
You're getting mixed up here. MrSpad originally pointed out that some of the attacks in the OP were events that were not covertly staged. As is my point: in order for an event to qualify as a FF it has to be covertly staged.
Nobody said that the whole list was wrong.
Yawn.

Hahaha, "semantic differences"???
You're the one who started underlining text and trying to get semantical.
If I disguise myself as you and break into your neighbours house with the intention of your neighbour seeing somebody on his CCTV that looks like you rooting through his wife's underwear in the hope that you will get framed for breaking and entering....that is the same as a False Flag.
Whereas, if some random thief breaks into you neighbours house and robs his missus's knickers, and I go and tell your neighbour it was you who did it...that is not the same as a False Flag.
Do you think the difference between these two example is semantical?

The most telling word in your post: "believe" as in you have zero evidence to support your opinions.
And yes, only an idiot would suggest that Israel will somehow make a pilot deliberately crash his plane and its passengers into the side of a mountain in order to distract the rest of the world from its(Israel's) problems. As if Israel give's a flying F**K what you or I think about how they conduct their business.
ATS should create a fantasist forum for people on here who have watched too many hollywood movies.

And obviously you do not know the history of Israel if you do not believe Israel would murder innocents to get what she wants.
I think I called it. When Netanyahu made those racist comments and the US released that report on Israeli nukes, I called it that people were about to be murdered because that is what Israel does when her back is against the wall. Sure as *snip* soon after another plane crash.
I guess Israel is just lucky that so many people died and got the attention off her.
(12) In 1960, American Senator George Smathers suggested that the U.S. launch “a false attack made on Guantanamo Bay which would give us the excuse of actually fomenting a fight which would then give us the excuse to go in and [overthrow Castro]“.
(13) Official State Department documents show that, in 1961, the head of the Joint Chiefs and other high-level officials discussed blowing up a consulate in the Dominican Republic in order to justify an invasion of that country. The plans were not carried out, but they were all discussed as serious proposals.
(14) As admitted by the U.S. government, recently declassified documents show that in 1962, the American Joint Chiefs of Staff signed off on a plan to blow up AMERICAN airplanes (using an elaborate plan involving the switching of airplanes), and also to commit terrorist acts on American soil, and then to blame it on the Cubans in order to justify an invasion of Cuba. See the following ABC news report; the official documents; and watch this interview with the former Washington Investigative Producer for ABC’s World News Tonight with Peter Jennings.
(15) In 1963, the U.S. Department of Defense wrote a paper promoting attacks on nations within the Organization of American States – such as Trinidad-Tobago or Jamaica – and then falsely blaming them on Cuba.
(16) The U.S. Department of Defense even suggested covertly paying a person in the Castro government to attack the United States: “The only area remaining for consideration then would be to bribe one of Castro’s subordinate commanders to initiate an attack on Guantanamo.”

The Gulf Of Tonkin incident was not a false flag attack.
A FF is a 'staged' event, the GOT incident was not staged, the data was originally misinterpreted, and details of the event were ignored later. Yes it was used as one of the many pretexts for military escalation in South Vietnam, but it was not a 'staged' event, and therefore not a false flag.
The amount of people who cite this incident as a false flag attack is indicative of how people in the 'conspiracy' world are more interested in jargon than they are in actual details.

This is why human governments fail, they attack their own people, lie about it and go to war. And the pattern keeps repeating itself because it works. That quote from Goering at the end is telling.
Do you remember how the Dixie Chicks were vilified for not being patriotic for not supporting Bush and his invasion of Iraq, I do. Just like Goering said you denounce those that oppose the war.
Now who was on the right side of history in retrospect.
