Abby Martin gives a heart-wrenching tribute to investigative journalist and former LAPD detective, Michael C. Ruppert, highlighting his career from exposing CIA drug trafficking to his groundbreaking research on ‘Peak Energy’ and how Bush and his cronies pulled off 9/11 for financial gain, in his seminal book, ‘Crossing the Rubicon.’
Martin reminds us of his sincere devotion to truth and justice, as he was her mentor -and she breaks down into tears during this broadcast. Indeed, Rupperts own suicide was apparently an act of self-sacrifice, based on Lakota Native American ideas:
Michael Ruppert left two handwritten suicide notes, one of which was a very personal note to his girlfriend/life partner. The second note was written to Jack Martin, the friend with whom Michael was staying at the time of his death and is transcribed here:
“Jack, Am so sorry. It could not be helped. I make a final offering of flesh for the children. It is all I have left inside. There is no more time. I have tried to make it as easy as I could. Rags [his pet dog] should go to Jessy Re & River. You will be able to deposit my royalty checks. And you have been an amazing friend & are a wonderful man. I do this for the children. May it bring love and ight to the world. Mike
Please make sure that Jessy Re gets her letter. I love her more than I can say. Please return my body to mother.” His friends have assured nvestigators that the writing is undeniably that of Michael Ruppert. Ruppert had recently made a will on March 4 of this year. Ruppert’s friends encourage that this information be shared, as there seems to be a media black-out on this story and the minute information that has made press has lacked any details, such as these.
Further research into the meaning of his words, of “offering his flesh for the children,” refer to Lakota Native American concepts, with which Ruppert had come to be instilled.
Charlton Wilson Cht Ccht, a psychotherapist, who follows Native Lakota ways and who was a friend of Ruppert’s, posted his understanding of Ruppert’s suicide, on this page of Ruppert’s CollapseNet.com website: “…giving his life was a gift. in the Native tradition of ‘give – away’ or ‘flesh offering’ i KNOW this is hard for westerners to grasp…
“know that this is not a typical give away. Natives don’t generally condone suicide, traditionally. and i do not condone suicide… “nevertheless: GIVE AWAY or FLESH OFFERING. “Mike had found his way to Native – specifically Lakota – ways. (mostly).”his final words that we have speak over and over of “…for the children…” there is nothing more Native than being concerned with how we are leaving things for the 7 generations to come…
“Mike took his own life. Mike was NOT nuts or crazy or massively depressed.
“he was carrying a load for 7.2 billion and people like you expected him to just carry it. actually, i did too-with out realizing it. and i expected him to be here a good long time yet. i WAS going to see him this summer. well, now the pack leader is not here. IN FACT: he has directly said: PUT THE WOMEN IN CHARGE. PUT THE WOMEN IN CHARGE. we need to listen…
“these are MORE Native tenets. pre-christian…”…part of my paradigm shift is to help folks…to let go of how he gave this final message and concentrate on the message, part is to address the epidemic of western mental sickness, a massive malady, part is to empower all of us to stick to Mike’s burden that he carried and more. i take this upon my shoulders because i loved this man.”
She refers to the stunning VICE series, of which I played the first installment, a few days ago, as soon as I heard about his potentially suspicious death, which occurred within moments after his final radio broadcast on PCRN. However, Martin does point out that Ruppert was subject to extreme bouts of depression, which is not hard to understand, having come from a multi-generational CIA family and then to unexpectedly discover a CIA link to the cocaine trade in Los Angeles, while he was an LAPD Narcotics Detective in the late 1970s.
This CIA link with the illicit importation of cocaine into the US culminated in the horrific crack cocaine epidemic of the late 1980s into the late-’90s, which utterly seized the largely-Black Inner Cities across the United States’ urban areas. Many people at the time were *already* pointing their fingers at the CIA – to the point, that the then-Director of Central Intelligence, John Deutsch was put up to quash any such rumors in a in a “Town Hall” meeting held in a Compton, CA High School, where he was then publicly challenged on live, national daytime TV by the then-LAPD Narcotics Detective, Micahel Ruppert, himself, of which there is a clip in this excellent broadcast by Abby Martin.
Ruppert was soon fired by the LAPD due to this live TV exchange – as was Deutsch, from his post as the DCI. I was directing 10 rap videos, per year, at the time and knew the lowdown myself, and I relished every minute of this live broadcast, which would NEVER take place in the Fascistic environment, that the US has since become. At the link below, please find all 6 Episodes by VICE of ‘Apocalypse, Man,’ filmed shortly before Ruppert’s apparent suicide, in which he succinctly sums up the state of world affairs in 10-15 minute installments, filmed in Crestone Colorado, at a spiritual retreat at the foothills of the magnificent Rocky Mountains.
Ter ere van Michael Ruppert, tonen we je graag deze specifieke video, met een kennismaking van zijn werk; een documentaire over Michael Ruppert, de politieman die zich autodidactisch omschoolde tot onafhankelijk reporter/journalist. Hij voorspelde de mega-financiële crisis van 2008 en is de man die je evenzo goed als ‘klokkenluider’ kunt betitelen. Veel van zijn werk verscheen in zijn nieuwsbrief, die de veelzeggende titel had: ‘From the Wilderness.’..
