MEDIA LOSER: Oliver Stone
Film Director Oliver Stone floated a theory during a recent podcast appearance that the U.S. could attempt a false flag nuclear or chemical attack against Ukraine and blame Russia. Speaking with podcast host Lex Fridman Tuesday, Stone said the U.S. is "making a lot of noise" about whether Russia will use nukes or chemical weapons, and that Russia being "pinned" with an incident would benefit the U.S. “For example, it’d be very, not simple, but it would be possible to explode a nuclear device in Donbas and kill thousands of people," he said. "And we would not know right away who did it, but of course the blame would go right to Russia. Even if it didn’t make sense, if there was no motivation for it, it would just be blamed on Russia.” “The United States might well be the one who does that false flag operation. It would not be beyond them. They would, it would be a very dramatic, uh, solution to seal this war off as a major victory for the United States,” Stone added. “That’s terrifying,” Fridman said. “But when you walk across that line you can potentially never walk back.” Stone replied, "I think the neo-conservative arrogance is such that they really believe they can push their advantage to the max now.” Stone is a crackpot, anyway. But theorizing in advance that a nuclear attack on Ukraine might be launched by the United States is well past "crank" territory and firmly in Alex Jones land. |
