An institute named for the father of possible presidential candidate Rand Paul has published a piece saying the Charlie Hebdo massacre, like 9/11, was a false flag operation. The claim comes in piece titled, "Charlie Hebdo Shootings: False Flag?," put online today at the Ron Paul Institute. "The Charlie Hebdo affair has many of the characteristics of a false flag operation. The attack on the cartoonists’ office was a disciplined professional attack of the kind associated with highly trained special forces; yet the suspects who were later corralled and killed seemed bumbling and unprofessional. It is like two different sets of people," reads the first paragraph of the piece. Usually Muslim terrorists are prepared to die in the attack; yet the two professionals who hit Charlie Hebdo were determined to escape and succeeded, an amazing feat. Their identity was allegedly established by the claim that they conveniently left for the authorities their ID in the getaway car. Such a mistake is inconsistent with the professionalism of the attack and reminds me of the undamaged passport found miraculously among the ruins of the two WTC towers that served to establish the identity of the alleged 9/11 hijackers. It is a plausible inference that the ID left behind in the getaway car was the ID of the two Kouachi brothers, convenient patsies, later killed by police, and from whom we will never hear anything, and not the ID of the professionals who attacked Charlie Hebdo. An important fact that supports this inference is the report that the third suspect in the attack, Hamyd Mourad, the alleged driver of the getaway car, when seeing his name circulating on social media as a suspect realized the danger he was in and quickly turned himself into the police for protection against being murdered by security forces as a terrorist. .... Some will contend that Muslims are sufficiently stupid to shoot themselves in the head in this way. But how do we reconcile such alleged stupidity with the alleged Muslim 9/11 and Charlie Hebdo professional attacks? If we believe the official story, the 9/11 attack on the US shows that 19 Muslims, largely Saudis, without any government or intelligence service support, outwitted not only all 16 US intelligence agencies, the National Security Council, Dick Cheney and all the neoconservatives in high positions throughout the US government, and airport security, but also the intelligence services of NATO and Israel’s Mossad. How can such intelligent and capable people, who delivered the most humiliating blow in world history to an alleged Superpower with no difficulty whatsoever despite giving every indication of their intentions, possibly be so stupid as to shoot themselves in the head when they could have thrown France into turmoil with a mere lawsuit? The Charlie Hebdo story simply doesn’t wash. If you believe it, you are no match for a Muslim. One wonders what Rand Paul thinks of this crack pot conspiracy theory pushed by his father's institute.

Is it actually affiliated with Ron Paul or just named in his honor by outsiders not affiliated with Ron Paul?
He established it with leftover campaign funds. I think he made a poor choice for the guy who runs it. And it is damaging to Rand. He will have to answer for it in debates, not a plus for him. Of course, you have Jeb's mom saying stuff like there have been enough Bushes in the White House.

Halper writes: An institue (sic) named for the father of possible presidential candidate Rand Paul has published a piece saying the Charlie Hebdo massacre, like 9/11, was a false flag operation. The claim comes in piece titled, “Charlie Hebdo Shootings: False Flag?,” put online today at the Ron Paul Institute. Halper does not bother to provide a link to the article in question, thus demonstrating his lack of journalistic ethos. If he had, he would discover the true author of the piece in question. Halper and the neocons are so blinded by their hatred of Paul and libertarianism they can’t be bothered to check facts. The real target of the attack is not Ron Paul, however. It is his son, who is preparing to run for president. Ron Paul no longer poses a political threat to the neocons, but his son, who has expressed libertarian opinions on foreign policy, does. The neocons prefer Hillary Clinton or a suitable warmonger in the Republican party. Paul Craig Roberts made valid points in the article misattributed to Paul, but we cannot expect the establishment, especially the neocon faction within, to entertain reality. In the bizarro world of the neocons, it is incomprehensible that the political class would engage in a false flag event to produce a desirable result, namely get a flagging war on terror back in gear and the clash of civilizations on track. Halper, now faced with the facts, should humbly apologize to Ron Paul. He will not, of course, and the war party charade will continue. There is a good reason The Weekly Standard is a financial failure dependent on the good will of Rupert Murdoch and other “conservatives” with deep pockets. It is a propaganda mill for neocons and their policies of murder and endless war. Most people see it for what it is.

Good post, hondo. Attempted smears like this illustrate just how panicked the establishment is getting over a Rand Paul candidacy.
Rand Paul gives yukon a case of the vapors.
Written by Paul Craig Roberts, not Ron Paul. Idiot. A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who tells lies will perish. Maybe you should heed that advice.
Yeah,"doan throw me in dat briar patch!". She doesn't make a very good Brer Rabbit.
Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)

A gutsy rebuttal, pretty scathing. Halper's reputation will nosedive but Weekly Standard won't care. This may be their attempt to scare donors away from Rand Paul with rumormongering.
And the sun rising in the East is a false flag operation.
I never believed the official story of 9/11

The Most Outrageous 9/11 Conspiracy Theory
Even a Bible-quoting Canary is still a Canary. Harry the Kitty likes Canaries.
Hi Deckard
He established it with leftover campaign funds. I think he made a poor choice for the guy who runs it. It is one of the things I think holds back the 'right' in that it keeps embracing what the mainstream consideres "kooks". I hope it does not hurt Rand Paul but it probably will.
Actually, RPI is far more a left-libertarian organization. Definitely Trutherish on some matters. And Daniel McAdams was in many of those RT videos that Marguerite posted.
To laypeople the libertarians are right wingers depsite their left- libertariaism.
Anyone who says 9/11 was a false flag is dumber than a box of rocks.
“Let no one mourn that he has fallen again and again; for forgiveness has risen, from the grave.” John Chrysostom www.evidenceforJesusChrist.org/Bible
I am not sure what false flag means
Hi Pericles
I support Paul because he is intellectually consistent. Even if I do not agree with him on an issue I can understand why he holds his position. For example, it is illogical to claim you want smaller govt and be pro increasing the war on drugs and spending more on a peace time military which most Republicans are doing and is intellectually illogical. Paul says he wants limited govt and is against the war on drugs and reducing military spending - I find that thinking intellectually logical.
Hi Pericles
It would take at least 40 tractor trailer loads of explosives to bring down those buildings, and months of inside ripping out walls, etc.

Hi Gary
The design failed to withstand the impact and fires. Frank DeMartini died in the WTC collapse. http://www.legacy.com/sept11/story.aspx?personid=103328
But they weren't designed to withstand a controlled demolition, were they? Oh and Building 7 - NEVER hit by a plane. Infowars reporter Lee Ann McAdoo talks to Rudy Dent, 32 year veteran of NYC fire department and the NYPD, about his incredible first hand experience of the lies surrounding WTC 7. Rudy Dent completely destroys the official statements contained in the 9/11 Commission Report. As as a high-ranking Fire Marshall he was present during the collapse of Building #7 on September 11th, 2001. He is also qualified and competent to describe the controlled demolition of Building 7 and the explosion which he heard triggered the implosion. The Most Outrageous 9/11 Conspiracy Theory BBC Reports Collapse of WTC Building 7 Early Oh? Where was his testimony during the 9/11 investigation? How recently has Rudy joined the truther movement? Sorry, your propaganda is old and boring.
Oh, you're serious? It failed to mention the existence of WTC7, Able Danger, Ptech, Sibel Edmonds, OBL and the CIA, and the drills of hijacked aircraft being flown into buildings that were being simulated at the precise same time that those events were actually happening. It was lied to by the Pentagon, the CIA, the Bush Administration and as for Bush and Cheney…well, no one knows what they told it because they testified in secret, off the record, not under oath and behind closed doors. It didn’t bother to look at who funded the attacks because that question is of “little practical significance“. Still, the 9/11 Commission did brilliantly, answering all of the questions the public had (except most of the victims’ family members’ questions) and pinned blame on all the people responsible (although no one so much as lost their job), determining the attacks were “a failure of imagination” because “I don’t think anyone could envision flying airplanes into buildings ” except the Pentagon and FEMA and NORAD and the NRO.

But neither did I believe any of the conspiracy theories
I had my own conspiracy theory about it
But in this case, I think the author of the article is wrong
And I don't think Ron Paul's name should be attached to it
Let Ron Paul speak for himself, that way we know what he actually thinks

I love Ron Paul
and I campaigned tirelessly to get him elected President
but I did not succeed
I think it would have been best for our country and the world
if he had been President
but obviously our fate lie in another direction
I really do not know how our country and the world can be saved now
When Edward Snowden did that courageous patriotic thing
I thought "this will save our country"
But so far it has not
And yet I continue to have full faith that our country and world will be saved
I just have no idea how it will happen?

.... I hope it does not hurt Rand Paul but it probably will.
I want Rand Paul to be our next President
I think it wwuld be good for our country
I've been a political drop out for past 4 years
So I am not as savvy as the rest of you
Seems to me the more practice Rand Paul has in answering unpleasant questions
the better
It gives him an opportunity to say what he thinks and where he stands
People get a better chance to know him
Love Palo

Paul says he wants limited govt and is against the war on drugs and reducing military spending - I find that thinking intellectually logical.
I too want to stop the war on drugs, and let everyone in prison for drugs be free
As for the military budget, I guess I would cut 90 per cent of it. Let it be 10 per cent of what it is
Also get rid of CIA, FBI, NSA
Seems to me most of this is what Ron Paul promised to do on his second day in Office if elected President
But he didn't win the GOP nomination for Prez
I do think this new election now will go to GOP
I will vote for Rand Paul in the primaries
But I have no idea who will win the primaries and be the GOP candidate for Prez
I actually think this year an independent Party could win if both major Parties run candidates who will continue the status quo
As no one seems to like the direction our country is going now

Where was his testimony during the 9/11 investigation?
The (9/11)investigation was delayed, underfunded, set up to fail, a conflict of interest and a cover up from start to finish. It was based on testimony extracted through torture, the records of which were destroyed.
