Ukraine False Flag Emails: Real or Fake?Brandon Turbeville If accurate, one such plan involves causing problems to the transport hubs in the south-east of Ukraine in order to frame-up the neighbor a quote allegedly attributed to Gresh. The emails allegedly involve Gresh stating that such an attack will create favorable conditions for the Pentagon to act. The unconfirmed group also claims that Protsyk writes to an individual identified as Vasil in another communication where he tells the man to arrange an attack on a Ukrainian Air Force Base housing the 25 Aviation Brigade in Melitopol. Vasil is apparently responsible for arranging the nuts and bolts of the attack, gathering gunmen, and providing them with maps and locations of sites to be attacked, according to the group and the emails it claims to have hacked. While some chatter has taken place across the Internet in regards to this story, it has not yet been confirmed by this writer, selfnews Post, or, to my knowledge, any other media organization as legitimate. Unfortunately, with leaks of this nature, it is virtually impossible to confirm the veracity of the claims made therein, particularly within a short timeframe. The alleged emails state: Respectfully, Jason P. Gresh http://ukraine.usembassy.gov/ EMAIL TO PROTSYK FROM UKRAINE OFFICIAL EMAIL FROM PROTSYK Keep in mind that, while such a false flag attack is well within the realm of possibility, a large amount of disinformation is often circulated via the Internet during moments of crisis. Many of these elements of disinformation are often deliberately released in order to poison the well of good journalism with stories that seem legitimate but, in fact, are not. This method discredits the reporter and the outfit that reporter is associated with. It is also quite possible that documents are intentionally doctored as a preventative measure to mitigate the fallout in case that document ever gets out. It is important to remember that, in January 2013, emails obtained from a German hacker were sent to Cyber War News, that reportedly showed the defense contractor Britam Defense preparing to stage a false flag chemical weapons attack to be blamed on Assad. British News Agencies reported the scandal and many other outlets reported it as well. In the end, however, Britam sued the Daily Mail over the story and, as a result, many smaller media organizations retracted or removed entirely their reports over the story in order to avoid suit because the emails had been tampered with, time stamps had been changed, and headers were missing. Britam claimed this was evidence that the emails were not authentic. Although many continue to believe that the Britam emails were indeed legitimate but preventatively altered, history can only acknowledge them as fakes, since retractions necessarily followed. Fake or not, the Britam email story is but one example of the treacherous pitfalls facing real journalism in the digital world, particularly in a world in which governments and corporations are more secretive than ever before. With this in mind, it is important not to jump to conclusions as to the veracity of these emails allegedly coming from the U.S. Assistant Military Attach or their relevance. At this moment, they remain a development to watch not a cause for panic.
