The Northwoods memo reads exactly like a Stage 2 memo. There would be very few details at Stage 2; those would come later after selecting the options to pursue and "flesh out" (Stage 3, Detail the Option). Any details mentioned at Stage 2 are, of course, subject to change.

And the introduction specifically states that it is "preliminary" and "for planning purposes," both points that seem to be lost on conspiracists.
