From Paul Craig Roberts of the Ron Paul Institute.

Charlie Hebdo — Paul Craig Roberts


The Charlie Hebdo affair has many of the characteristics of a false flag operation

From the link…


If Muslims are responsible for the attack on Charlie Hebdo, what Muslim goal did they achieve? None whatsoever. Indeed, the attack attributed to Muslims has ended French and European sympathy and support for Palestine and European opposition to more US wars against Muslims. Just recently France had voted in the UN with Palestine against the US-Israeli position.

Maybe that was the intent… to drive the French away from recognizing Palestinian Statehood.

Looks like it worked.

Pretty much, a day after the attack I noticed in UK our state media were running articles about "anti-semitism" being higher than its ever been here in the UK. Several European countries began running similar articles for some reason, the PR campaign seems to have been planned well in advance.

Very interesting read, I have to agree with him on all points he has made. The way the Brothers carried out the Charlie Hebdo massacre was very professional, yet they made a fatal error by leaving their I.D behind?

I wasn't aware that the third suspect had an iron clad alibi, is he still in custody?

Helric Fredou's suicide is a puzzle to me and to blame depression and burn out is a classic cover up I feel.

Seeing all those mass murderers linking arms and standing up for freedom of speech? What a complete insult to our intelligence.

Yet, there are many who are not willing to even contemplate questioning any of this. Their Ego will not allow them, their trust in their Governments and the MSM is so conditioned they are convinced they are there for their protection.

Anti-semitism is indeed an attractive option, because that offers substantially broader variety of profets to mock. And Jews do not tend to weep and act teen rage if some half-scetched caricature of their profets would happen to find its way to some odd magazine cover.

The third suspect Hamyd Mourad was in school at the time, by all accounts he seems to be a normal kid. Raises a few questions to be honest.

How did he get identified as a suspect in the first place?

He was identified as the "getaway driver" if there was a getaway driver, then does this mean there is still a suspect at large?, what happened to this myseterious getaway driver?

Another of the suspects was identified from DNA analysis of a piece of cloth left behind at the scene the analysis took a matter of hours, not days, not weeks such complex analysis would require but hours.

It would appear security services already had the list of suspects in place before the actual event.

Will there ever be a tragedy that's NOT a false flag?

Considering that it seems to be the norm for the government to use any kind of tragedy that may pop up for a political gain with their agenda?

NOPE!

Indeed. She was hyped to no end a day or two after the shootings, front-page on news websites, and now silence.

ETA: Thanks for posting this, OP! I agreed with Mr. Roberts' point of view from the start of this latest false flag.

She wasn't part of any of the atrocities as she flew into Turkey on the 2nd of January, crossing the Syrian border on the 8th so we're told. Another Femme fatale on the run.

Even though Mahmoud Abbas was invited to the Paris march ?


Clearly, France was showing too much foreign policy independence. The attack on Charlie Hebdo serves to cow France and place France back under Washington’s thumb.

Even though they're backing the U.S in the fight against IS ?

He says repeatedly "If Muslims" , he fails to grasp that the attacks and the problems of extremism are not due to Muslims but rather extremists or Jihadists who are not supported by the vast majority of peaceful Muslims who just want to get on with their lives.
No offence OP but the article is nonsense.

Hardly surprising considering he believes the attack to have been a "false flag" carried out by western governments and not Muslims, extremist or otherwise.

This article is full of nonsense.



yet the suspects who were later corralled and killed seemed bumbling and unprofessional. It is like two different sets of people.


I don't see it that way. They were disciplined enough to take over a print shop. Then again, they had the same Kalashnikov rifles as the assassins.



Once again we see the US print and TV media serving as a ministry of propaganda for Washington. In place of investigation, the media repeats the government’s implausible story.


The US Govt HAD NO STORY. Perhaps what Roberts meant to write was "In place of investigation, the [US] media repeats what Agence France Presse reports."




Not a single US mainstream media source reported that [Hamid Mourad] turned himself in because he has an ironclad alibi.


Er...
www.latimes.com...=1

On the suicide of police chief Helric Fredou, he writes


A google search as of 6pm EST January 13 turns up no mainstream US media report of this event.


Er...
www.washingtontimes.com...
CNN, Fox News also.




Clearly, France was showing too much foreign policy independence. The attack on Charlie Hebdo serves to cow France and place France back under Washington’s thumb.


The 1.3 million French people who marched on Sunday sure didn't look very cowed to me.Washington, in fact, didn't seem very interested, did it? Eric Holder was actually in Paris that day, and did not show up.
