False Flag is “an action-packed, enjoyable and terrifying read.” – R.A. Mathis (author of Ghosts of Babylon and the Homeland series).
A terrorist group came into possession of a tactical nuke. Uncle Sam covertly put together a squad of mercs and SpecOps veterans to swipe the WMD before it could be used. The team of military contractors led by former SEAL Rocco Cavarra, who prefixed their radio call signs with the term “has-been,” had to fight their way through war-torn Sudan to reach the terrorist camp where the bomb was stashed. This all happened in Hell and Gone, the first book in the Retreads series.
Ten years later, the survivors of the Sudan mission helped their SF buddy Tommy Scarred Wolf execute a hostage rescue in South Asia. The Retreads shot it out with human traffickers, pirates, and a secret team of black ops assassins. This took place in the pages of Tier Zero–the second and most action-packed Retreads novel so far.
While the Retreads were fighting overseas over the years (officially and unofficially), bad stuff has been happening on the home front in their own country. Now the USA is speeding over a cliff into economic collapse, nuclear terrorism, and civil war, and the Retreads are caught up in the middle of it in False Flag: the third novel.
Amazon reviewers have called False Flag “a runaway action thriller,” “a thinkers book,” and “an awe-inspiring ride.” More than a few have used the phrase: “ripped from the headlines,” but there are trace amounts of what would never make the headlines. Certain subplots would be dismissed as “conspiracy theory” in some circles, but in the wake of Jeffrey Epstein’s death, those circles are shrinking.
Both Hell and Gone and Tier Zero are available in audio book format as well as paperback and e-book. There are plans for a False Flag audio book as well. Now is a great time to pick up one of these great reads. They’re unlike anything else being published today; and they’re distinct from the action-adventure of yesteryear, too.
How does somebody in solitary confinement and on “Suicide Watch” manage to hang themselves? (Maybe it’s standard practice to allow rope in the cell. Perfectly harmless, don’tcha know. Maybe the guards thought he’d like to practice tying knots, so he could remember happier times as a Boy Scout Troop Leader. Anyone who finds this death by suicide even remotely suspicious is obviously a whacko conspiracy theorist.)
Had he named any names in interrogation?
Will we ever learn the truth about this?
Normies, coincidence theorists, and milquetoast “conservatives” will be uncomfortable if even those rudimentary questions are asked. Their normalcy bias would trigger extinction-level bowtie-ruffling if any deeper thought is allocated to this development…such as:
How long until we find out that all the evidence regarding Epstein has been lost or accidentally destroyed?
When the Deep State can so blatantly commit Arkancide with so many people watching (and, in fact, anticipating this very outcome), is there any hope whatsoever for even a brief, limited dispersement of watered-down justice?
While right-wingers have been talking trash about how Barr is going to accomplish some epic swamp-draining, has he been simply another Deep State plant, crushing those who won’t toe the line?
If Barr and most of the “rank and file” in the justice system truly are white hats, just how incompetent are they?
Is the Power of Positive Thinking going to rescue us from the situation?
I threw that last one in there because I fully expect that individuals online will soon be sounding off that this is just “the god-emperor playing four-dimensional chess.” Epstein’s really in witness protection, and this story is just a smokescreen. Or he already sang like a bird, so this is no big loss.
After the demoralizing 2018 election, Qanon reappeared, encouraging everyone to “trust the plan” because “we have the senate.” (The senate that “we have” is currently chomping at the bit to pass “red flag” legislation that will make your right to keep and bear arms subject to the approval of individuals like the thought cops at Google and Facebook who declare you a white supremacist and gag you if you dare express an opinion they don’t like.)
When Q begins posting again, I’m not sure how he will spin this. Maybe more “trust the plan” stuff, assuring us that Epstein spilled his guts before being snuffed. Maybe more “4D chess” stuff, hinting that he’s really still alive and the story is misinformation. (To his credit, he did warn of imminent false flags, and that August would be a “hot” month.)
Coincidence theorists believe that Oswald acted alone and what Jack Ruby did was just well-intentioned homicidal buffoonery. They’ll swallow this whole, too.
UPDATE: After the first “suicide attempt,” Epstein was taken off Suicide Watch at the request of his attorneys, it’s being reported. His cellmate was removed from the cell the day before his death, the video cameras just happened to malfunction at exactly the right time, and the guards (one of whom was not even an actual guard) who were supposed to check on Epstein every 30 minutes “fell asleep” and left him unobserved for hours.
July 6, 2019: Long time Clinton comrade Jeffrey Epstein is arrested for kiddie-diddling yet again. (Despite the sexual predator receiving only a slap on the wrist after his previous convictions of sexual crimes against children, this time there is an Attorney General who might be interested in bringing him to justice.) Sites like Wikipedia begin whitewashing Epstein’s Internet footprint to erase his ties to the Clintons and other Deep State front men (and women).
July 24, 2019: Amidst speculation that Epstein is ratting out the politicians, powerful bureaucrats and others who flew on his “Lolita Express” and visited his “Pedophile Island,” the Democrats try to breathe new life into their Russian Collusion Hoax by having Robert Mueller testify before Congress. (It is a media circus in which Mueller refuses to answer questions, feigns ignorance about the witch hunt he conducted, and claims with a straight face that details of his own Special Council Investigation are “outside my purview.” Of course, he gets away with it.)
July 24, 2019:A possible attempted “arkancide” in jail against Epstein fails. You might notice that this attempt occurred while all the Democrat news outlets (AKA: “mainstream media”) were hyping the Mueller testimony, doing their best to make sure all attention was on the Congressional hearing.
July 25, 2019: Interview footage surfaces of Scammer Extraordinaire Ilhan Omar declaring that white men are the real threat in the USA. She takes time out from committing tax fraud, marriage fraud, immigration fraud, and incest, to explain that “white men” are more dangerous than Jihadists, and “we should be profiling, monitoring, and creating policies to fight the radicalization of white men.”
July 29, 2009: An active shooter incident takes place at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in California (a “gun-free zone”). Originally the Lone Nut was reported to be a white male who announced that he was “very angry” in between indiscriminate murders at the festival. It turns out, Santino Legan is of Iranian/Italian descent, but you’ll never hear that from the Democrat-Media Machine. It’s doubtful they’ll even invent a “white Iranian” classification, lest anyone make the Muslim connection. The “dangerous white male with an assault weapon” narrative is what matters. Initially, a second suspect is classified as “at large” by the police. This will quickly be memory-holed by…
August 1, 2019: It is publicized that the FBI has declared right wing “conspiracy theorists” to be “domestic terrorists.” that’s right–you no longer actually have to commit a violent or terrorist act (or plan or conspire to commit one); merely disagreeing with CNN and Google’s top search results is enough for you to wind up on a terrorist watch list. It’s almost like Ilhan Omar wrote this policy herself.
August 3, 2019: Another shooting breaks out, at a Wal-Mart (another “gun free zone”) near the US-Mexico border in El Paso, Texas. There are a lot of suspicious details about this one, including early reports that there were at least four perpetrators.
The Narrative quickly changed to Lone Nut and it’s doubtful you’ll hear about the other shooters again. “There is no John Doe #2. There never was a John Doe #2. Oceana has always been at war with Eurasia. Go back to sleep.” Finally–a white male shooter with a semiautomatic rifleassault weapon!!!! Omar is right! The FBI is right! And there’s even a convenient manifesto Patrick Crusius supposedly posted online detailing his motivations (including a desire for universal health care and universal income–socialist ideals) and, strangely, his weapon selection. Even better: he transformed into a Republican NRA member and Qanon follower hours after his arrest. But before you get all carried away asking questions and scrutinizing The Narrative…
August 4, 2019: Look! Another active shooter–this one outside a bar in Dayton, Ohio (a “gun-free zone”?). Another Lone Nut (Connor Betts) white male with a scary-looking assault weapon and high-capacity magazine, legally purchased. Any minute now, we’ll find out he subscribes to InfoWars, voted for Trump, is an OathKeeper and eats at Chick-Fil-A.
As of this writing, there is no word of another active shooter media event. But by the time you read this, there very well could be. If enough of these shootings occur in increasing frequency, maybe collective emotions will overwhelm not-so-common sense. Trump signed on to the idiotic bump stock ban in the shriekfest after the Las Vegas shooting. Everyone is watching to see if he’ll piss away his reelection by betraying his base again.
Update: Connor Betts posted a “hit list” in the boy’s room of his high school, and evidently had some anger/self-esteem/depression issues. He subsequently “got help” and his sister (murdered in his brief rampage) thought he had adjusted. About the “help” he got:
Did it involve prescribed psychotropic drugs?
Who is his therapist and who does the therapist work for?
