In a chapter titled ‘False Flag operations’ in our book The Orphan Conspiracies, readers’ attention is drawn to the false flag that began the Vietnam War in a chapter titled ‘False Flag operations’.
An excerpt from the above-mentioned chapter follows:
On August 4, 1964, President Lyndon Johnson alerted his fellow Americans on national television that North Vietnam had attacked the American destroyer USS Maddox (pictured below) in the Gulf of Tonkin.
Not long after, Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which gave Johnson the green light to begin military operations against North Vietnam. American troops were soon stationed in Vietnam and neighboring countries, and the war that would dominate an era began.
However, President Johnson and his Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara, successfully hoodwinked the American people because North Vietnam never initiated a sea battle with the USS Maddox as the Pentagon had claimed, and the so-called unequivocal evidence of a second attack by the North Vietnamese is now commonly acknowledged as being a false report.
A National Security Agency (NSA) report on the Gulf of Tonkin Incident, declassified in 2005, concluded that USS Maddox had engaged the North Vietnamese Navy on August 2, 1964, but (and this is a big but) “The Maddox fired three rounds to warn off the communist boats. This initial action was never reported by the Johnson administration, which insisted that the Vietnamese boats fired first.”
Regarding the all-important second attack on August 4 – which effectively caused the Vietnam War – the NSA report concluded there were no North Vietnamese Naval vessels present during the entire incident: “It is not simply that there is a different story as to what happened; it is that no attack happened that night.”
If an organization as biased as the NSA says no attack ever happened then it seems very safe to say the Gulf of Tonkin Incident was nothing but a phantom attack on the US Military. It was carefully crafted propaganda devised to manufacture consent for all-out war.
In this instance that propaganda ended up costing approximately 60,000 American lives and three million Vietnamese lives.

Conspiracy theorists insist 9/11 was an inside job – the suggestion being it was a US Government ploy to justify the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq. Too much of a stretch? Consider Operation Northwoods…
In 1962, the US Government’s Department of Defense and Joint Chiefs of Staff proposed carrying out acts of terrorism on American soil to justify military intervention in Cuba. They called it Operation Northwoods.
Hard to swallow? For sure, but it’s on the record. Numerous military and intelligence documents recording these disturbing false flag proposals have since been declassified.
In the interests of full disclosure, you are reading an excerpt from a chapter titled ‘False Flag operations’ in our book The Orphan Conspiracies.
Excerpt continues:
Operation Northwoods remained a secret for 35 years. The sinister proposal first came to the public’s attention in November 1997 when The John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Review Board declassified various top secret military records, which included the Northwoods documents. The following year, the National Security Archive published further revealing information on Northwoods.
A (since declassified) ‘Top Secret’ memo dated March 13, 1962, addressed to the Secretary of Defense and signed by then-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff makes for interesting reading. Its subject line reads: Justification for US Military Intervention in Cuba.
Item No. 1 on that memo reads: “The Joint Chiefs of Staff have considered the attached Memorandum for the Chief of Operations, Cuba Project, which responds to a request of that office for brief but precise description of pretexts which would provide justification for US military intervention in Cuba.”
Operation Northwoods’ plans included the sinking of US war ships, shooting down hijacked passenger planes, killing innocent American citizens, letting off bombs and orchestrating other violent terrorist acts in major cities including Washington DC and Miami.
Every event would be blamed on Fidel Castro and the Cuban regime. The Joint Chiefs of Staff’s logic was that these events would help gain enough support from the American public and the world at large for a US military invasion of Cuba.
Fortunately, President Kennedy immediately rejected the Northwoods proposal and fired one of its main proponents, Lyman Lemnitzer, who was then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The following year, Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, while Lemnitzer was appointed Supreme Allied Commander of NATO. Go figure!
Operation Northwoods is one of several proven False Flag schemes revealed in our book and one of numerous so-called conspiracy theories since revealed as conspiracy fact.
For the skeptics, here’s the (since declassified) ‘Top Secret’ memo relating to Operation Northwoods dated March 13, 1962, addressed to the Secretary of Defense and signed by then-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Does Northwoods have echoes of 9/11? You decide.

Yamashita’s Gold, alleged stolen treasure squirreled away by the Japanese during their occupation of the Philippines in WW2, was named after General Tomoyuki Yamashita. We devote a chapter to this intriguing rumor in our book The Orphan Conspiracies.
Yamashita’s Gold… Fact or fiction?
The war loot, also known as Yamashita’s Treasure, is said to have been hidden in caves and underground complexes throughout the islands of the Philippines.
Existence of these treasures remain unconfirmed by the Japanese, Filipino and all other authorities in Asia and the West to this very day. However, most international investigators – Asian investigators included – believe Yamashita’s Gold exists, or existed, at least to some degree. Their belief is supported by a Hawaii Supreme Court finding in 1998 and a subsequent US Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal ruling, and we reveal those legal bombshells late in the chapter.
Between Japanese army records, international court hearings, eyewitness accounts and treasure finds throughout the Philippines over the decades following WW2, there seems to be more than enough substance to build a case for the existence of Yamashita’s Gold.
Although eugenics flourished in Nazi Germany, the ideal of a blond-haired, blue-eyed master race wasn’t Adolf Hitler’s. In researching one of our books, we discovered that American eugenics policies inspired eugenics programs in Nazi Germany. If that’s not disturbing enough, during the early days of the Third Reich, American eugenicists publicly praised Hitler’s plans to introduce and enforce sterilization of “unsuitable people” and other such eugenics policies!
Auschwitz a symbol of Hitler’s eugenics program.
In Mein Kampf, Hitler credited America with helping formulate his ideas on eugenics, and he admitted he’d studied the laws of US states to familiarize himself with selective reproduction and other eugenics issues.
Funding also flowed from the US to Nazi Germany for eugenics programs. For example, The Rockefeller Foundation financed numerous German eugenics experiments, including one that Josef Mengele worked on before he carried out his notorious human experimentations in Auschwitz.
In America, eugenics often targeted minority ethnicities. Early last century, 31 US states legalized sterilization of those deemed genetically inferior, especially psychiatric patients. And Nobel-prize winning electronics pioneer, eugenics advocate and notorious racist, Dr. William Shockley, proposed to pay black persons with IQ’s lower than 100 a cash incentive of $1000 to have themselves sterilized.
Imagine for a moment a reality where all the technologies futurists have predicted have already been invented and are currently being used by a privileged few. Skeptical? Look no further than Nikola Tesla, aka the Electric Magician. Many secret technologies are rumored to be based on the works of this brilliant Croatian-born Serbian-American scientist, inventor, physicist and electrical engineer.
The Electric Magician…scientist extraordinaire
Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) was, in the view of many, history’s most underrated scientist. His astounding official achievements in the scientific field are too many to list here. We summarize the Tesla story in our book The Orphan Conspiracies… https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J4MPFT6/ It provides insights into the conspiracy theories that feature in our international thriller series The Orphan Trilogy… https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BGGM05U/
Above books exclusive to Amazon.
As revolutionary as Tesla’s known inventions and experiments sound, it’s his long-rumored suppressed inventions that have spawned countless theories. There have been numerous reports of scientific inventions that never saw the light of day even though they were ready to go on the market.
Among the diverse topics we cover in this book are mind control, eugenics, false flag operations, the Queen’s hidden assets, secret prisons, The Catcher in the Rye enigma, political assassinations, medical cover-ups, genius learning techniques, Yamashita’s Gold, the Jonestown mystery, Americanized Nazis, the bankrupting of Third World nations, underground bases, the US Federal Reserve, the New World Order, forbidden science, the War on Drugs, subliminal messages and extraterrestrials.
★★★★★“Years ago, I read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee and felt my life and beliefs change for the better! Now…I just finished reading The Orphan Conspiracies and once more felt my life and beliefs change positively… A highly readable book about the abuse of power by the select few at the top, the global elite who keep essential knowledge from the everyday person. The Orphan Conspiracies shows the Morcans’ thoughtful approach to the abounding number of existing conspiracy theories and will confirm what people have always thought and perhaps have known in some part of their minds.” –J.B. DiNizo (author of ‘Comings and Goings’)
Our first non-fiction book, The Orphan Conspiracies, is more conspiracy fact than fiction even if it was inspired by the 29 conspiracy theories featured in our international thriller series The Orphan Trilogy.
More conspiracy fact than fiction.
The Orphan Conspiracies includes a foreword by leading scientist Dr. Takaaki Musha and an afterword by renowned historian Professor Richard Spence. In many ways, this exhaustively-researched work is the secret history of the 20th and 21st Centuries. But more than a history, it reveals what is happening right now behind the scenes – in underground bunkers, in the corridors of power, in prime banks and meetings of the world’s elite.
Topics covered in The Orphan Conspiracies (in order of chapters) include:
As everyone knows, most conspiracy theories are BS.
However, what about the lesser known and under-reported “conspiracy FACTS”?
The latest episode of the ongoing podcast series UNDERGROUND KNOWLEDGE is all about revealing such conspiracy facts…In this episode I outline 17 mind-blowing facts…Which prove that the conspiracy field is more nuanced than commonly acknowledged…
“In 1977, Carl Bernstein published an exposé of a CIA program known as Operation Mockingbird, a covert program involving, according to Bernstein, “more than 400 American journalists who in the past 25 years have secretly carried out assignments for the Central Intelligence Agency.” Bernstein found that in “many instances” CIA documents revealed that “journalists were engaged to perform tasks for the CIA with the consent of the managements of America’s leading news organizations.”
Operation Mockingbird was a secret campaign by the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to influence media. Begun in the 1950s, it was initially organized by Cord Meyer and Allen W. Dulles, it was later led by Frank Wisner after Dulles became the head of the CIA.
The organization recruited leading American journalists into a network to help present the CIA’s views, and funded some student and cultural organizations, and magazines as fronts. As it developed, it also worked to influence foreign media and political campaigns, in addition to activities by other operating units of the CIA.

“A team of researchers in conjunction with the US Air Force Office of Scientific Research is developing what they are calling a micro aerial vehicle (MAV) that will undertake various espionage tasks. The robotic insect can effortlessly infiltrate urban areas, while being controlled from a long distance; and it is equipped with a camera and a built-in microphone.”
“Questions about the Gulf of Tonkin incidents have persisted for more than 40 years. But once-classified documents and tapes released in the past several years, combined with previously uncovered facts, make clear that high government officials distorted facts and deceived the American public about events that led to full U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War.” -U.S. Naval Institute
“Mentally retarded children housed at the Willowbrook State School in Staten Island, New York, were intentionally given hepatitis in an attempt to track the development of the viral infection. The study began in 1956 and lasted for 14 years.
The researcher also wanted to determine the effectiveness of gamma globulin injections as protection against hepatitis. They justified their deliberate infections and exposures by claiming that given that there was a high rate of infection in the institution it was practically inevitable that the children would become infected.”
Number 12: The 1933 Reichstag terror attack…A Nazi false flag attack
“There is enough evidence to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that it was the Nazis who planned the arson and carried it out for their own political ends.” -Shirer, William (2011). The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Simon and Schuster. p. 192.
What follows are excerpts from a chapter we edited out of our non-fiction book The Orphan Conspiracies: 29 Conspiracy Theories from The Orphan Trilogy just prior to publication. Why we removed the chapter, we can’t quite recall. Perhaps it was because we weren’t sure readers were ready for it. Anyway, we’ve posted the entire chapter in our Underground Knowledge group on Goodreads.
Here we go… Read the following excerpts at your peril:
If the insider tip-offs we received are correct, then it seems all of our lives are about to change, for the better… long-withheld scientific inventions will change every facet of our society. This new science will replace mainstream or official science and revolutionize education, agriculture, living standards, travel, life expectancy and our present monetary system. And that’s just for starters!
…All that follows is what we have been told, and we are just the messengers so please don’t shoot us if you find this information too fantastical to believe! We tend to believe this information, but without a time travel machine we obviously cannot prove any of these predictions for the future…
A small selection of the suppressed technologies said to be released include; Free energy devices for every person on the planet; weather manipulation machines similar to HAARP except used only for good such as bringing rain to drought-striken areas; modes of transportation using ley lines and other natural energies that will be so fast they will feel close to teleportation; highly effective smart drugs and other brain products that will wire our minds for super intelligence.
And those are simply the technologies we can make head or tail of. Other more out-there inventions like “dream recorders” (which presumably allow individuals to record their own dreams while sleeping as if filming everyday life) “alchemy machines” (something that turns rocks into gold like the legend of ancient alchemists?); “five-sensory entertainment” (entertainment that includes touch, taste and smell, perhaps?) and “mind swappers” (which we can only guess means allowing your mind to be shared with another and vice versa) are all very difficult to imagine, let alone write about here.
Of all these new technologies, the game-changer is predicted to be a structure colloquially referred to as Space Scrapers (aka Star Towers). These gigantic towers will be along the lines of our present sky scraper buildings in the world’s cities, except they’ll be so tall they actually reach into Space!
These incredible structures will be around 275 miles tall, apparently, and most will have their foundations in sea floors and rise up out of the oceans. They will weigh hundreds of billions of tons – however, these edifice’s top half (the part that will reside in Space) will for some reason weigh almost nothing.
Believe it or not, these superstructures will be built almost entirely out of glass. Not regular glass, but a glass product made from sand known as anhydrous glass and incorporating the most advanced Nano technologies. Spider silk, which mainstream science has already shown to be stronger than metallic fiber, will also be woven into the glass. The specially designed and unbreakable glass will be flexible, yet far stronger than the thickest and toughest metals currently used in Nano fiber optics.
The funding, technologies and wherewithal necessary to build Space Scrapers already exist – mostly in secret, of course.
Ones will eventually be built in every country on earth and world citizens will have the ability to step out into Space using elevators, escalators and stairs. More importantly, modern industries will be completely transformed by the construction of these towers…
…it appears these planned Space Scrapers/Star Towers may be based on century-old Tesla technologies. Due to their towering height, they are able to gather the ionosphere’s solar wind radiation energy, providing inhabitants of Earth with an unlimited source of free energy. This will eradicate the need for nuclear power plants and any more Chernobyl or Fukushima-style irradiation disasters. Other current forms of energy, including hydroelectric dams and oil, gas and coal energy plants, will also be a thing of the past as eliminating all air pollution will be a top priority in this new world.
The Space Scrapers will also create millions of jobs worldwide (either directly or indirectly), dropping unemployment levels almost to zero...
