What constitutes an 'extraordinary claim' is a subjective judgement.
I don't find it at all impossible that governments would resort to tactics like false flags. I don't find it to be an 'extraordinary' claim, just... a claim. I'd consider it if I saw at least some credible evidence. But in this case I just don't see much evidence at all beyond suspicion and innuendo.
That and false flags really aren't necessary. There are enough fanatics out there. Governments just have to wait for one of them to do something and then take advantage of it to push the agenda. No need to take the immense risk of forcing it when independent actors will do it for you if given enough time.
