rejected.content: A false flag is a covert operation designed to appear as if it were conducted by another entity, often for the purpose of blaming another party for the operation. This allows the true perpetrator to maintain plausible deniability and to avoid accountability for their actions. Common uses of false flags include political and military operations intended to misdirect blame or to deceive the public. Examples of false flags range from the infamous Operation Northwoods proposed by the US Department of Defense in the 1960s to the 2002 Operation Anaconda, a covert US Military operation in Afghanistan.
