Was Shot Heard Around the World A False Flag?

James Perloff, author of the article ‘The Secrets Buried at Lexington Green writes, “I grew up in Lexington, Massachusetts, where on April 19, 1775, a force of British redcoats, on their way to Concord to confiscate rebel munitions, encountered a small force of militiamen. Suddenly, "the shot heard round the world" was fired. In the ensuing skirmish, eight colonists were killed, and nine wounded. The British suffered one wounded. This was a causus bellum for the American Revolution.

But, was "the shot heard round the world" a false flag like 9-11, a pretext for war?

As explained in detail my online article The Secrets Buried at Lexington Green, Americans were deceived. It was proclaimed everywhere that the British had committed an unprovoked massacre in Lexington. The truth is individuals in concealed locations fired on the British first.”

Perloff goes into more detail stating that Samuel Adams secured a pledge from the delegates of the 1774 Philadelphia Congress stipulating that if one colony was attacked , the other colonies would aid in their defense, however; the delegates insisted on one stipulation and that stipulation was that the pledge would only be honored IF the British fired the first shots. Perloff also notes that British veterans who were at the battle recorded in personal diaries (not intended for publication that the Americans fired first and if a good conspiracy wets your whistle, Perloff presents the following:

“The night before the battle, Joseph Warren dispatched Paul Revere on his famous ride from Boston. Warren sent another rider, William Dawes, and both arrived at the Lexington house where John Hancock (left) and Samuel Adams--leaders of the revolution in Massachusetts---were staying. Adams had recruited smuggler John Hancock, wealthiest man in Massachusetts, to be the revolution's financial angel.

What history books omit: Warren was Grand Master of St. Andrew's Free Masonic Lodge in Boston; Revere, Dawes and Hancock belonged to that Lodge. After the war, Revere became Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts.”

Evidence found in the Library of Congress backs up Perloff’s claim that the Americans fired first at Lexington. The Library of Congress archive of the Atlantic Monthly (Volume 39, Issue 234, April 1877) contains diary entries from a British Army Officer who wrote:

“[April 1775] Last night between 10 and 11 o'clock all the Grenadiers and Light Infantry of the Army, making about 600 Men, (under the command of Lt. Coll. Smith of the 10th and Major Pitcairn of the Marines), embarked and were landed upon the opposite shore on Cambridge Marsh; few but the Commandg. Officers knew what expedition we were going upon. After getting over the Marsh, where we were wet up to the knees, we were halted in a dirty road and stood there 'till two o'clock in the morning, waiting for provisions to be brought from the boats and to be divided, and which most of the Men threw away, having carried some with 'em. At 2 o'clock we began our March by wading through a very long ford up to our Middles: after going a few miles we took 3 or 4 People who were going off to give intelligence; about 5 miles on this side of a Town called Lexington, which lay in our road, we heard there were some hundreds of People collected together intending to oppose us and stop our going on; at 5 o'clock we arrived there and saw a number of People, I believe between 2 and 300, formed in a Common in the middle of the Town; we still continued advancing, keeping prepared against an attack tho' without intending to attack them; but on our coming near them they fired one or two shots, upon which our Men without any orders rushed in upon them, fired and put 'em to flight; several of them were killed, we cou'd not tell how many, because they were got behind Walls and into the Woods; We had a Man of the 10th light Infantry wounded, nobody else hurt.”

Revealed: SPLC Co-Founder Accused of Trying to Molest Step-Daughter

Southern Poverty Law Center Founder Morris Dees Tried to Molest Step-Daughter Chances are that if you're reading this you have heard of The Southern Poverty Law Center. The non for profit legal organization that has provided information to law enforcement and is a "go to" source of information by almost every reporter that encounters a "controversial" story. Widely known for its defense of Civil Rights the SPLC has filled its coffers defending the oppressed and exposing hate-groups, at least that is how the organization wants to be perceived. The reality is that the SPLC has made their millions by twisting the facts. They would have the public believe there is a Klansman hiding behind every tree and a Nazi at every podium.  I once found myself in their crosshairs by proposing to hoist a Missouri Battle Flag at the grave of Missouri Confederate Colonel William Jeffers in Jackson, Missouri. The ironic thing about their opposition to this "hate-c...

Emancipation Expectations

Some historians believe that the Emancipation Proclamation never freed a single slave and that it was a political ploy to garner support for the war by rebranding it as a moral fight. Information found in the National Archives seems to support their argument. According to the article entitled " Emancipation Proclamation, 1863 ": "Although the Emancipation Proclamation did not immediately free a single slave, it captured the hearts and imagination of millions of African Americans, and fundamentally transformed the character of the war from a war for the Union into a war for freedom." The transformation was a success politically but in reality the "emancipated" slaves were labeled as "contraband".  Their fate was not freedom but rather a new type of slavery through exploitation. Information found in a paper entitled " Civil War in the Delta: Environment, Race and the 1863 Helena Campaign " states: "By early June ...

The Rape of Delaware County

$10 paperback / $.99 Kindle When I was first contacted by Edwin Turlington in the summer of 2018 I was told as story that literally seemed stranger than fiction. A veteran of the U.S. Army was telling me that he was facing a 10-year prison sentence for shooting a felon on his property who had threatened him. Mr. Turlington asked me if I could write an article to help get his story out to the public, being a sucker for a good story I agreed to do it. The story revealed that the corruption in Edwin Turlington’s case, extended throughout the county and included “snitches” given free passes to break the law, a county jail system so corrupt that local property taxes had to be raised to settle the lawsuits of former female inmates, and a local lawyer who made international headlines for his involvement in a murder for hire plot. As the article began to gain attention, Mr. Turlington urged me to write a book about the events, thinking it could be a vital tool to p...
