About this episode
Interesting Things with JC #1641: "Operation Northwoods" – In 1962, America’s top military leaders signed off on plans to fake terrorist attacks, stage civilian deaths, and make it look like Cuba shot down a passenger plane to push the United States into war, and when the documents were finally released decades later, one of America’s “crazy conspiracy theories” turned out to be completely real.
