chosen.content: A false flag is a covert operation that is designed to appear as if it is being carried out by another entity in order to mask the identity of the person or group responsible for the operation. It typically involves the illegal or unauthorized use of a nation's flag in an attempt to deceive someone into thinking a certain country is behind the act. It can also involve placing false information in order to misdirect those investigating the incident.

rejected.content: A false flag operation is a covert operation designed to look like it was carried out by somebody else. It can range from simply fabricating evidence to commit an attack, to staging a fictitious event and falsely blaming it on others. This practice is commonly used by governments to justify going to war, or to further an agenda by creating a sense of fear or anger in the public. It is also used to create distractions from other issues or controversies, or to distract people from paying attention to certain topics. Some famous examples of false flag operations include the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915 in order to justify American involvement in World War I, and the 9/11 attacks in 2001, which had various false identities and accomplices to cover up US involvement.
