• Gulf of Tonkin Incident The Gulf of Tonkin Incident refers to the August 2 and 4, 1964 incidents in which a genuine North Vietnamese attack on the USS Maddox was followed by a second 'attack' on August 4 that almost certainly never occurred, yet was used by the Johnson administration to obtain the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution authorizing open-ended military escalation in Vietnam - a deception confirmed by NSA declassified documents released in 2005.
• Operation NORTHWOODS Operation NORTHWOODS was a March 13, 1962 document signed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff proposing a series of staged false-flag attacks against American citizens and military assets that could be blamed on Cuba to justify a U.S. invasion, rejected by Secretary of Defense McNamara and President Kennedy, and declassified in 1997 through the JFK Records Act as one of the most significant disclosures of Cold War government deception planning.
