(August 6, 2018) Alex Jones says Infowars platform bans are first step in globalist plot to carry out violent false flag attacks against CNN and MSNBC
[Media Matters] Hours after YouTube banned him, conspiracy theorist Alex Jones repeatedly claimed that globalists and the media will orchestrate mass casualty attacks at CNN and MSNBC which will then be blamed on Jones and President Donald Trump.
Jones made the “false flag” claims while guest hosting the August 6 edition of Infowars program War Room. At the top of the show, Jones said “false flag” attacks would be staged against CNN and MSNBC in order to cause civil unrest, or even a civil war, and that the motivation behind the Infowars platform bans is that “they don’t want me on air on big viral platforms so that I can respond when they do it”
Jones isn't crazy. He's passionate, he's over the top sometimes, but he's more dialed into reality than most people, especially on the topic of false flag attacks.
It’s just as likely that a nutjob Alex Jones disciple carried out the attempted attacks just to prove him right
Why would an "Alex Jones disciple" want to do such harm to the reputation of Jones and his beloved Trump right before the midterm election? The GOP is kicking ass right now, their events are massive, the Dems can barely fill a school gym. There's nothing to be gained by anyone who supports Jones or Trump from sending mail bombs to prominent lefties. Besides, they'd have to be unbelievably stupid to think they can just send a mail bomb to someone like Soros or Clinton and it won't thoroughly checked over by security long before they ever see it. It was 100% guaranteed to fail, and anyone with an IQ over 50 could anticipate that. So why do it? Qui bono?
Nothing is outside the realm of possibility. It wouldn’t surprise me anymore if it was an Antifa freak than if it was an Alt Right freak. It’s extremism that is the danger here. Not being Republican or Liberal.
It does feel like a lefty tactic to gain sympathy in the midterms and to distract from the southern invasion. Time will tell.
Plus I wouldn't call a bunch of poorly-constructed bombs that didn't detonate "mass casualty events".
Give me some bodies then we can talk :P
Be careful what you ask for, the election is still 2 weeks away. If they think it will take bodies to get you to vote blue, then that's what you'll get. The radical left is in final boss mode, so I wouldn't expect to see much restraint from them.
Whether Jones in particular or not, the right, and thus Trump/Trump supporters will be blamed.
At any rate, it's all BS. CNN posting a pic on Twitter??? No cancelling of the postage. No trace of the "suspicious powder" that supposedly was also in the envelope. Oh, and word has it that the "timer" used had no alarm function and there wouldn't have been enough juice to set off a blasting cap anyway. Few, if any, of the recipients collect/open their own mail (two were under SS protection). Even did they, none went off that were opened...or were detonation instructions included for the would be victims?
Quiet? Nah, they'll have a new narrative waiting in the wings...
