Operation Northwoods is a known false flag attempt in which the US Department of Defense in 1962 concocted a scheme to try to enter into war with Cuba. At the height of the cold war, the US government came up with the idea to fabricate attacks on its own military, attack and kill Cuban immigrants, blow up buildings, and destroy the boats of Cuban migrants attempting to cross the Straights of Florida to escape Castro's communist regime. All of these actions were to be blamed on Cuba as an impetus to draw the US into an unpopular war with the island nation, which at that point in time had not signed onto the Warsaw pact. The US government was hungry to start a war with Cuba before any attachments to the Soviet Union had been made. | Operation Northwoods is a known false flag attempt in which the US Department of Defense in 1962 concocted a scheme to try to enter into war with Cuba.

Operation Northwoods is a known false flag attempt in which the US Department of Defense in 1962 concocted a scheme to try to enter into war with Cuba. At the height of the cold war, the US government came up with the idea to fabricate attacks on its own military, attack and kill Cuban immigrants, blow up buildings, and destroy the boats of Cuban migrants attempting to cross the Straights of Florida to escape Castro's communist regime. All of these actions were to be blamed on Cuba as an impetus to draw the US into an unpopular war with the island nation, which at that point in time had not signed onto the Warsaw pact.
