Uncover the explosive truth behind one of the most shocking proposals ever conceived by the U.S. government.
Inside Operation Northwoods exposes a once-secret Cold War plan in which the U.S. Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff proposed false-flag attacks-including hijackings and bombings on American soil-to justify military intervention in Cuba. Drawing from declassified documents and rich historical context, author Rowan A. Blackwood delivers a gripping investigation into the minds and motivations of Cold War strategists, revealing how close the United States came to deceiving its own citizens in the name of national security.
This chilling exposé goes beyond the headlines to examine the ethical, political, and philosophical implications of Operation Northwoods, shedding light on how similar strategies echo through modern global politics. From the Cuban Revolution to the halls of the Pentagon, and from suppressed documents to modern-day conspiracy theories, this book challenges readers to rethink the boundaries of truth, power, and accountability.
If you're interested in espionage, Cold War history, or the dark side of government operations, Inside Operation Northwoods is a must-read.
