Last [Friday’s shootings in Christchurch](https://www.oye.news/news/shootings/breaking-man-opens-fire-on-a-tram-in-the-dutch-city-of-utrecht/), New Zealand which ended with 50 dead and just as many injured have rung the global bell on a call for tougher media censorship. Yesterday an open letter from Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu, who is the head of Counter-Terrorism Policing in the UK was published on the counter-terrorism website. Basu’s letter is a plea for the UK Government to recognise the threat that the free flow of information can have on a nation and to do something about it. Basu points out the ironic fact that *“the same media companies who have lambasted social media platforms for not acting fast enough to remove extremist content are simultaneously publishing uncensored Daesh propaganda on their websites, or make the rambling ‘manifestos’ of crazed killers available for download.”* He said extremist propaganda that might reach tens of thousands of people through their own channels or networks has the potential to reach tens of millions if a national newspaper published it. He goes onto say in summary that: > ‘Society needs to look carefully at itself. We cannot simply hide behind the mantra of freedom of speech. That freedom is not an absolute right, it is not the freedom to cause harm – that is why our hate speech legislation exists.’ [source](https://www.counterterrorism.police.uk/acso-neil-basu-issues-open-letter-about-reporting-of-terrorism/) Basu continually refers to this dangerous information that the UK’s media is publishing as Terrorist propaganda, which he claims inspires other potential terrorists into action, he bases this assessment from the statements of terrorists his team have interviewed over the years. I think it is undeniable that information can be dangerous, it can reinforce beliefs and prejudices, it can raise one’s emotions causing anger and fear. This is true whether the information is accurate or not. Information which has been designed to produce a specific public emotional response, propaganda, is even more dangerous – But, it’s not the root of the problem, it merely accelerates an exceptionally small minority of people to do what they were inevitably going to do anyway. Censoring our media is a far more dangerous path to take, with dire consequences. A government which controls its media and dictates the flow of information is a Government who has a self-perpetuating power and thus unbreakable control over its people. While we have been condemning dictatorships across the World for decades with the oppression they place upon their people through censorship and their own propaganda we are voluntarily begging for it ourselves, a little bit at a time. ______________________ Read this article in its original format and thousands more over on our [WEBSITE](https://www.oye.news/news/freedoms/censorship/christchurch-shootings-inspire-global-censorship/)

False Flag – A false flag is a covert operation designed to deceive; the deception creates the appearance of a particular party, group, or nation being responsible for some activity, disguising the actual source of responsibility. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_flag) Lets begin with a quick history of real confirmed false flag events. _______________________ #### OPERATION AJAX Operation Ajax was launched by the CIA in 1953 with the mission to overthrow Irans current democratically elected leader at the time, Mohammed Mosaddiq. In Mosaddiq’s place, ruthless dictator Mohammad Reza Pahlavi Shah would take the reigns of the Iranian leadership. The United States goal was to depose Irans nationalized Anglo-Persian oil company and install 5 of their own oil companies to take over the Irans highly lucrative oil fields. To achieve this, a false flag operation was put into action that through the use of mass propaganda and highly complex political manoeuvres instigated public revolt and political destabilisation, this then opened the door to the CIA and MI6 military intelligence allowing them re-install the Shah legacy into power who would throttle oil supplies and effectively become another puppet regime of the US Government The details surrounding this covert operation have since been declassified and can be found at the [CIA archives](https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intelligence/csi-publications/csi-studies/studies/vol48no2/article10.html). This is how the [CIA described Operation](http://alexanderhiggins.com/the-build-up-to-war-in-iran-is-operation-ajax-all-over-again/) Ajax: > *“The world has paid a heavy price for the lack of democracy in most of the Middle East. Operation Ajax taught tyrants and aspiring tyrants that the world’s most powerful governments were willing to tolerate limitless oppression as long as oppressive regimes were friendly to the West and to Western oil companies. That helped tilt the political balance in a vast region away from freedom and toward dictatorship.”* #### GULF OF TONKIN The Gulf of Tonkin False Flag is probably one of the most well known covert operations by the United States Government, in a nutshell, the government pushed false information in order to manufacture a geopolitical narrative with a ready-made enemy, the North Vietnamese. The result was the deaths of millions upon millions of people on both sides of the line Since the event, declassified documents have revealed a [number of senators](https://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/15/world/asia/15vietnam.html?_r=3&emc=eta1) knew the incident in the Gulf of Tonkin was indeed a false flag. A March 1968 closed session of the Foreign Relations Committee withheld a committee staff investigation that raised doubts over whether the Tonkin incident ever took place. As Senator Mike Mansfield stated: > *“You will give people who are not interested in facts a chance to exploit them and to magnify them out of all proportion.”* #### THE LAVON AFFAIR Just one year after Operation Ajax, Israel began their own false flag operation, Operation Susannah. This false flag operation involved Israeli Government agents planting bombs in several Egyption, American and British cinemas, libraries and educational centers – eight Egyptian Muslims were then framed as the perpetrators of the attacks. The operation was exposed because one of the planted bombs detonated prematurely leading to the capture of one of the agents. Following a public trial the Israeli spy revealed details of the spy ring and the covert operation, all agents were convicted and two executed, the Israeli Defence Minister at the time, Pinhas Lavon was forced to step down because of the scandal. So what was the purpose of this whole operation you maybe wondering, well the chain reaction of events that followed were quite remarkable. A Stanford published paper wrote that: > *“A retaliatory military incursion by Israel into Gaza that killed 39 Egyptians; a subsequent Egyptian–Soviet arms deal that angered American and British leaders, who then withdrew previously pledged support for the building of the Aswan Dam; the announced nationalization of the Suez Canal by Nasser in retaliation for the withdrawn support; and the subsequent failed invasion of Egypt by Israel, France, and Britain in an attempt to topple Nasser. In the wake of that failed invasion, France expanded and accelerated its ongoing nuclear cooperation with Israel, which eventually enabled the Jewish state to build nuclear weapons.”* #### THE RISE OF THE FALSE FLAG NARRATIVE Though the above mentioned events all occurred decades ago much of the details surrounding the events only came to light in recent times and the term ‘False Flag’ itself was still, even then largely unknown to the average person. So what changed? 9/11 happened and then everything changed. #### THE POST 9/11 ERA Following the tragic events that unfolded on September 11th 2001 the World as we once knew it began to change forever, naivety of indefinite safety and security for ourselves and loved ones was lost, enemies were born and fear was the new direction political and media narratives would take. However, it wasn’t to long before the obvious holes in the official narrative of what exactly occurred on that awful day began to be identified and before long an entire movement was born of people who denied the official narrative, and rightly so. This denial of the 9/11 state-sponsored ‘story’ escalated until over half of all Americans now don’t believe the official story that was told to them by their Government. This rapid decline in trust towards the establishment and the media institutions that prop them up resulted in an uprising of independent media sources and investigative journalism, for the first time the monopolised news media channels had an opponent and it was growing fast. For the first time, Independent News platforms were gaining audiences greater than the prehistoric mainstream media political lapdogs that had dominated the minds and hearts of the general public for centuries. Without the constraints of corporate funding these independent media channels were able to dissect events and discuss the crimes past and present of our Governments. #### CONTINUE READING THIS ARTICLE AT [OYE NEWS](https://www.oye.news/news/psychological/the-rise-and-fall-of-the-false-flag-narrative/)
