Richard Dolan introduces us to his new series, False Flags, where he guides us through the history and implementation of covert operations, and the resultant media coverage to reveal the ulterior motives behind such actions.

In this inaugural episode of False Flags, Richard Dolan guides us to see through the fear mongering of mass manipulation and free ourselves from the shackles of lies and deception. The constant barrage of bad news has left many people believing that it is normal to live in a world full of terror and trauma. So, we feel confused and hopeless about our position in the world. All of this is by design. As we learn of the history and implementation of covert actions and propaganda, we become empowered to reclaim our place in the world.

Richard Dolan explains how the state makes use of propaganda to achieve specific ends that would otherwise be impossible to justify. To do this, he takes us back to ancient times to explore the earliest forms of false flags, so that we can gain a better understanding of how this phenomenon developed. From the great fire of Rome in 64 AD to the Gunpowder plot of 1605, we see how governments can engineer nefarious acts against their people, or take opportune action, solely to benefit those in power. Most importantly, we gain an understanding of how the state makes use of propaganda to achieve specific ends that would otherwise be impossible to justify.

Richard Dolan reveals details of three events which ushered in the modern age of deception: the sinking of the USS Maine in 1898, the financial scare of 1907 which established the Federal Reserve, and the sinking of the RMS Lusitania which convinced U.S. citizens that it was time to enter the Great War. Before we can definitively identify these as false flags, we must ask, who benefits? The evidence suggests that major bankers were behind these manipulations, twisting the hearts and minds of the people, for their own financial gain.

Richard Dolan exposes how the Nazi party, in the 1930s, manipulated the German people into agreeing to what would become some of the most heinous crimes against humanity. First came the Reichstag fire on 1933 which was used to justified attacks against communists. Then in 1939, confusing radio broadcasts gave a false pretext to invade Poland. What the Nazi leaders learned from these actions, is that the public can always be brought to do the bidding of their leaders. All that is needed, is for the people to believe that they are being attacked, and then they will demand retribution against so-called aggressors.
