In USA, 1972 saw an escalating opposition to the Vietnam War. In Italy, the first Gladio bombing was carried out against the state apparatus, killing 3 policemen. This would eventually lead to the exposure of the whole program.

In 1972 Brian Michael Jenkins started work on the RAND/Terrorism Chronology Database of international "terrorism" using 3” x 5” index cards.[1]

Each of the "superpowers" and its team of allies needed to outdo each other by creating ever more and deadlier weapons, creating a kind of perpetual war for perpetual peace, with the warring parties engaging mainly in covert/proxy wars. Deep state interests blossomed in the climate of fear and paranoia.

Peteano bombing31 May 197231 May 1972A suicide bomb attack which lured 3 carabinieri to their deaths with a booby trapped car bomb. The cover up of this murder - and its later uncovering by Italian judge Felice Casson was a major event in the exposure of Operation Gladio.
Watergate coup17 June 19729 August 1974This is framed by the official narrative as a simple case of political corruption, one which proves that "the system works", since the powerful perpetrator was caught - if not actually brought to justice, since outgoing president Nixon was immediately pardoned by his successor, Gerald Ford. In fact it may well have been the outworking of a deeper political power struggle at work.
1972 Munich massacre5 September 1972 04:31:006 September 1972 00:04:00A famous attack on Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics.
