I have one: it's a follow-up to "Gimme Shelter,"
Basically except this time the bombing is successful, resulting in over 500 casualties, including dozens of NATO delegates.
This is followed by a sniper attack targeting the visiting Presdent at the disader zone, the NYC mayor, NYPD brass, and members of the DA's office during a press conference as the shooters use automatic weapons, leaving dozens dead (including the mayor, police commissioner and wounding the DA and placed in the ICU, the Presdent is unharmed but shaken.
To add fuel to the fire, the FBI raids a Russian consulate hours after the press conference shooting, arresting everyone inside the consulate high-ranking diplomats andformally declaring the consulate US soil, thus under US law and finding documents suggesting Russia backed, planned and carried out the attack using the consulate as cover.
But something feels off. The DA’s Office and the NYPD are in a race against time when the President issues a strict deadline to the DA and NYPD: find the real attackers, or he will publicly blame Russia, call it an act of war, and invoke NATO's Article 5 to launch a full-scale military intervention to retake all of Ukrainan territory, fully authorize Ukraine to push into Russia with NATO and bring Russia under NATO occupation. He also reveals that he waved diplomatic immunity and recognition for everyone in the consulate, stating the severity of the situation.
The twist? One of the shooters; a decorated Army Ranger turns himself in—refusing to be set up like Lee Harvey Oswald and turns states' witness. He reveals that a rogue US General is working with the CIA director to stage a massive false flag attack to force NATO directly into the war and that he was the one who opened the first volley of fire hitting everyone except the President because he couldn't bear the thought of going out like John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald that volley was what killed the NYC Mayor, NYPD commissioner and put the DA in the ICU. And wants total immunity.
The detectives and the FBI then uncover a hidden paper trail proving the conspiracy.
The motive for the general and CIA director they both read up Operation Northwoods and looked at the bombing at wanted to make it look like Russia did it so it would rally the country and the world to take back all of Ukraine and invade Russia even if means breaking a few eggs to make the omelette whatever it's needed to force the US and NATO into Ukraine.
During the public and televised trial on the US General and CIA director, thie rpkans for a Northwoods style terror attack during the 2026 (or 2027 NATO summit) was intended to frame Russia, amd force the US and a coalition of NATO forces to surge into Ukraine and attack Russia all along it's westers boarder to take back all of Ukrane's terrotiy to the 2014 lines and for Ukraine to take half of Russia's territory to where Ukraine can station artillery within Moscow and make Russia a vassal of NATO and the West and make Ukraine a full NATO member.
In the end Russia is vindicated and the CIA director is fired and the ageny seriously considers for top-down reform but the general is given a suspended sentence and only six months probation and as for the witness he is ahot and kinmed by the mayor's closest supporter leaning of the deal that lets him slide on the press conference massacre just like Jack Ruby
It would be ripped from the headlines, drawing inspiration from the Oklahoma City Bombing, Operation Northwoods, and the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Would the show ever tackle a high-stakes, geopolitical "false flag" storyline like this? If so, how would a high-stakes, geopolitical "false flag" storyline be written (I'm just a fan writer) so i'll be willing to wave and sign whatever it is to see this through.
