Conduct Enabling Terrorist Attacks This information is provided by a former federal agent and his coalition of other former government agents and insiders. The purpose of this page is to show the corrupt culture of the employees in the U.S. Department of Justice that has enabled to occur a series of major terrorist attacks on U.S. targets. The horrendous brutal loss of life would not have happened but for the documented corruption reference here. There are many other pages at this site addressing these matters, as well as in the related books. This page provides a quick overview of the corrupt culture of people in control of the U.S. Department of Justice that constituted the greatest help for al Qaeda terrorists in carrying out a continuing series of major terrorist attacks on U.S. targets. 1993 Bombing of the World Trade Center The bombing of the World Trade Center in New York City occurred in 1993. Prior to that attack, the culture of those employees in the political U.S. Department of Justice was at work. In the aftermath, their conduct assisted the efforts of the al Qaeda cell planning the bombings, assisted by funds obtain from the drug traffic. This segment starts out with the highly successful efforts of a multiagency drug task force highly arresting people in the New York City-New Jersey area involved in drug sales. Joseph Occhipinti was the head of a joint interagency drug task force operating in the New York-New Jersey area. Under his command, the drug task force was highly successful in arresting people dealing in drugs. Among those that the task force affected were the politically powerful Dominican Republic drug traffickers that operated out of bodegas. The large population of Dominican Republic immigrants provided them powerful political support. As the drug task force under Occhipinti's command became highly successful in discovering drug activity, especially among the bodegas operators, federal prosecutors charged Occhipinti with criminally violating the civil rights of bodega owners. The charge was based on the testimony of bodega operators who claimed that they had not given verbal authorization to inspect their premises for drugs. These charges were unprecedented, and smelled of some other motive. The jury of local residents cooperated with federal prosecutors, finding Occhipinti, and a cooperating federal judge sentenced Occhipinti to a long prison sentence. His conviction severely reduced the efforts by the multiagency drug task force to halt the drug trafficking, and greatly reduced government investigations into drug activities in the New York-New Jersey area. The "beneficial" effects of unprecedented actions by federal prosecutors was to continue the flow of funds to those involved in the drug trade. That included the funding from drugs by an al Qaeda cell in Jersey City, New Jersey, headed by Ramzi Yousef. (Note: The outrage by law enforcement personnel against the Department of Justice prosecutors resulted in President George H.W. Bush granting Occhipinti a pardon several years later.) Some time later, in 1993, Ramzi Yousef, the head of that al Qaeda cell, masterminded the bombing of the World Trade Center. Yousef then fled to Manila, where he carried out a fatal test bombing of an airliner and then planned to simultaneously bomb 11 U.S. airliners departing Far East locations. That plan failed after bomb material in his apartment resulted in a fire and brought local police into the case. More information about this matter is in several books. Initially, in the book, Drugging America: a Trojan Horse, and then in two other books: Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries, and Crimes of the FBI-DOJ, and the Mafia. Some years later, Ramzi Yousef would be inadvertently providing information on several terrorist attacks on major U.S. targets. The truth associated with that would be major scandals, and kept from the American public by the vast web of government and non-government cover-ups. In the various books related to this Internet site, information is shown that reveals the standard practice by Justice Department employees to misuse their awesome power to silence present and former government agents who attempt to protect national interests by exposing the corruption in high government places. These felony retaliations played enabling roles in some of the worst tragedies to befall the American public. Terrorists Acquiring Missiles: TWA Flight 800 The former titular head of a covert CIA operation, Ronald Rewald, based in Honolulu provided the following information to former federal agent Rodney Stich as it relates to the acquisition of surface-to-air missiles by Middle East terrorists−shortly before the downing of TWA Flight 800 that had recently departed from JFK airport in New York City. Rewald described a 1995 meeting that he arranged in Long Beach, California. That meeting involved FBI and CIA personnel and a representative of Afghan warlord Rashid Dostum. Dostum was offering 100 surface-to-air missiles to the United States in exchange for the release from prison of a member of the Dostum group that had been convicted of drug sales: Mohammad Akbar Bey. Rewald's prior CIA affiliation and contact with Mohammad Akbar Bey set the stage for the exchange of the missiles, which Dostum had intended to sell to the highest bidders in the Middle East. Those bidders would probably be people wanting to use the missiles against U.S. aircraft. Rewald's plan to prevent the missiles from falling into the hands of terrorists failed, as CIA and FBI personnel turned down to offer. Rewald, outraged, notified his friend, Rodney Stich, who then promptly sent letters to several members of Congress. In the letters, Stich identified himself as a former federal agent, and that he was in contact with a former head of a covert CIA operation, and then advised them of the pending sale of the surface-to-air missiles. Stich advised about the gravity of the matter and the urgency of them contacting him so that more information could be provided that would enable them to help prevent the transfer of the missiles to terrorists, who could be expected to use them against the United States.One recipient of the October 20, 1995, letters was Senator Arlen Specter. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Years of Non-Response From Members of Congress Not a single recipient responded, despite the gravity of the information. The pattern of non-response to letters reporting equally important and even more so, as it related to matters of major national security dangers, suggested a reason for the 100 percent non-response. Not wanting to sound like a conspiracy buff, the overwhelming amount of explosive information, receiving a total non-response, strongly suggests that the information had such explosive ramifications, that involved so many major people and groups in government, had resulted in many great national tragedies, and involved so many key people in cover-ups, that no one wanted to be on record of even responding tot such communications. The downing of TWA Flight 800 occurred on July 17, 1996. Despite the numerous reports of professional people seeing a missile trail and subsequent initial military-type explosion followed by gasoline explosions (that are a different color), Department of Justice personnel and the political NTSB board members claimed that a spark in the center fuel tank caused the downing of the aircraft. The Boeing aircraft company disputed that fact, and as this is writing, 13 years after the event, there has not been any requirement to address the spark theory. Details of the TWA Flight 800 downing are in the book written by former FAA airline safety expert Rodney Stich: Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries. Ronald Rewald has an interesting background. He also suffered grievously from attacks by federal prosecutors, CIA personnel, and a federal judge, all of who sought to make him the scapegoat after a Honolulu television reporter exposed certain suspicious events surrounding the company. Over a period of many years, Rewald provided to former federal agent Rodney Stich considerable information on covert CIA operations, and provided him with several legal-size boxes containing CIA documents. The name of the secret CIA operation over which Rewald was titular head was Bishop, Baldwin, Rewald, Dillingham, and Wong (BBRDW). During several years of continual communications, Rewald provided such information as the following: CIA assisting Ferdinand Marcus with hiding stolen funds in the United States while U.S. Department of Justice was seeking these funds. Opening and funding secret off-shore bank accounts for high-level U.S. officials. Familiar with how CIA funnels money to CIA proprietaries, how CIA opened and funded secret off-shore bank accounts for high-level federal officials. After a Honolulu television reported exposed the corporation as a fraud, a hoard of CIA and FBI personnel convened in Hawaii to falsely charged Rewald with defrauding investors in a financial scheme, diverting attention from it being a CIA operation. Secret bank accounts for several nationally known politicians. CIA dealings with CIA-funded and armed In 1985, after a Honolulu television exposed the company as a fraud, a hoard of CIA and FBI personnel descended upon Honolulu and falsely charged Rewald with running a scam financial operation. With the help of a cooperating federal judge that: Refused to allow most of the CIA documents to be presented. Refused to allow Rewald to be defended by a competent lawyer, Melvin Belli of San Francisco. Forced Rewald to accept a young lawyer that had just finished law school and had never practiced law, and who was hardly qualified to deal in traffic violations. The cooperating federal judge then sentenced Rewald to a long 80 year sentence, insuring that the public would never learn about the covert CIA operation. This story is described in the personal plight of Rewald in Disavow: CIA Saga of Betrayal, and a fuller account of that and other secret CIA operations in the book, Explosive Stories of Covert CIA Companies. Drug, Alien, Terrorist Smuggling Aided by Department of Justice Terrorists, drugs, illegal aliens, have made their entry into the United States from Mexico eased by the culture in U.S. Customs and the Department of Justice. One example follows: John Carman was a former Secret Service agent and then an agent for U.S. Customs on the Mexican border. He described how he and other Customs agents were repeatedly blocked by Customs supervisors from investigating railroad cars from Mexico that they suspected of smuggling drugs, illegal aliens, or terrorists. Frustrated, Carman resigned from U.S. Customs and put up a web site reporting what he and other Customs agents encountered: www.customscorruption.com. Having resigned from his government position, Carman then became a private investigator with an office in the San Diego area. Seeking to silence him, federal prosecutors in the San Diego office used a discredited Mexican in a scheme to file false charges against Carman in an attempt to silence his exposure activities. The scheme involved the Mexican "hiring" Carman to do an investigation, and then the "client" would provide false testimony that Carman planned an unlawful act as part of the investigative work for the Mexican. A naive jury found Carman guilty and a federal judge sentenced Carman to a long federal prison sentence. Those charges were made against Carman at the same time that the Republican George Bush administration was firing U.S. attorneys who were not carrying out prosecutions of political figures that were Democrats. Among other agents of the U.S. Customs service that resigned because of the misconduct was Mary Diefenderfer. She provided information to members of Congress, including testimony about these matters, which was then followed by the usual congressional cover-ups. Copies of several of her writings follows: May 6, 2009 April 17, 2008, report. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Declaration to NTSB in 2000. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Her June 2000 email to Rodney Stich.

(Adobe PDF) DOJ "Deep-Sixing" Knowledge Of Planned al Qaeda Attacks The series of terrorist attacks on major U.S. targets, including those on September 11, 2001, were known to a small group in the U.S. Department of Justice. The information was being provided to FBI agents in the New York City FBI offices on regular basis. The person providing the information about the planned terrorist attacks was a former Mafia soldier, Gregory Scarpa, Jr., who had befriended Ramzi Yousef, the mastermind behind the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. So important was this relationship that the local FBI agents set up a fictitious Mafia company controlled by Scarpa and his Mafia sources in New York City, and this company was used by Yousef to make local calls from the federal holding facility to that company, and the calls would be patched to local al Qaeda operatives and those in the Middle East. That critical information, obtained over a period of months by local FBI agents, was "deep-sixth" by high-level FBI-DOJ personnel. The reason? Scarpa was scheduled to testify about a series of murders that his father, a Mafia capo known as "The Killing Machine," had committed with the help of a key FBI supervisor in the New York City offices. Click here for information about the murders. In order to discredit Scarpa when giving that testimony, Department of Justice employees had to avoid doing anything that would give credibility to Scarpa. And that included withholding the valuable information on the planned terrorist attacks from other government departments that could have taken steps to prevent the attacks from being successful. And that includes withholding the information from other FBI agents. Scarpa started providing information about these matters, along with FBI reports documenting the sequence of events, to former federal agent Rodney Stich. Thee is much more to do than stated here, but the details are in the book, Crimes of the FBI-DOJ, and the Mafia. Cover-Ups Combined With Punishment And Resulting Catastrophic Events Decades of great and varied national tragedies have resulted from the culture of corruption of people in control of the U.S. Department of Justice. Just a few examples have been cited here. One more example is given that is much broader, with massive amount of documentary evidence. This example refers to the 40 years of cover-ups and retaliation affecting former federal agent Rodney Stich. Briefly: As a key federal airline safety inspector, Stich reported and documented the pattern of corruption in the FAA and the cover-ups by the political National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and the effects upon a series of specific airline disasters. Stich spent years notifying members of Congress, documenting their years of cover-ups. Encountering total cover-ups by every check and balance, he source to circumvent this national culture by filing federal actions that were authorized by two federal statutes: the federal crime reporting statute and the statute that permits any citizen to seek a court order requiring a federal official to perform a mandatory lawful duty and to halt unlawful conduct. Despite their mandatory duty to receive information on federal crimes, federal judges blocked the reports from being made and then compounded the obstruction of justice with unlawful and unconstitutional orders barring the former federal agent for the remainder of his life from filing any papers in any federal district or appellate court. The effect, and obviously the intent, was to prevent him and his coalition of other insiders from reporting the high-level corruption. These orders were then followed by federal prosecutors acting with federal judges charging the former federal agent with criminal obstruction of justice, denying him ma jury trial, and sentencing him to federal prison for six months. Those charges were filed by later charges charging him with criminal contempt of court. All of these combination Justice Department-federal judge actions enabled to continue the various forms of harm being inflicted upon people of the United States and upon national security. And they played major roles in the conditions that made it possible for several terrorist attacks on major U.S. targets−including the events of September 11, 2001. Among the tactics employed to halt the former federal agent from continuing his attempts to inform and motive the American public about these serious matters were the following: Repeatedly block the former federal agent and his coalition from reporting the high-level criminal activities. Misused the Department of Justice and federal courts to retaliate against the former federal agent. The retaliation included such acts as: Charging him with criminal contempt of court and sentencing him at the age of 67 to federal prison. Rendering a series of orders barring him from the remainder of his life from filing any papers in many federal district or appellate court, converting him into a literal man without a country as it relates to the rights and protections "guaranteed" by the laws and Constitution of the United States. Seizing his life assets that knowingly funded his exposure of high-level corruption, violating the due process rights of notice of hearing, a hearing, and legal cause. And then compounding these outrages with orders barring him from filing objections to the seizure, and then when he does file objections, unfile them and compound these outrages with charging him with criminal contempt of court for objecting to the seizure and liquidation of his assets. Most of which went to the hoard of lawyers whose series of sham lawsuits paralleled the efforts of federal judges and Department of Justices' efforts to keep the information of high-level criminal activities from the public. These actions by employees of the U.S. Department of Justice and federal judges met the legal criteria for a racketeering enterprise. Many other people seeking to protect the nation by fighting this corruption have paid a heavy price. Their courageous acts are unknown by the American people. Assisting Further in the Pattern of Successful Terrorist Attacks For years, the former federal agent was sending letters and faxes to people in control of government and non-government checks and balances, putting them on notice of continuing major crimes against the Untied States associated with a continuing series of resulting tragedies. Even after the resulting catastrophic events occurred, not a single one responded. It is a criminal act under Title 18 U.S.C. § 4 for anyone who knows of a federal crime not to promptly report it to a federal official (that is not themselves involved in the criminal activities). Not only was their cover-up a criminal act, but they became enablers to some of the worst catastrophic events to be inflicted upon the United States and its people. All of the above, having played major roles as enablers to, for instance, the 9/11 hijackings and deaths, then waged wars against Afghanistan and Iraq, claiming they had some responsibility in the 3,000 deaths on 9/11, while the primary enablers to the 9/11 hijackers were here in the United States! For anyone who loves this country, the prostitution of it and its soul by the corrupt acts described here−and they are only a fraction of what is revealed in the related books--should be aghast at how a literal Trojan horse group could do so much harm to a nation and be totally immune from the consequences. Great Airline Disasters With Links to Corrupt Culture Most of the above catastrophic events occurred on the program for which FAA air carrier operations inspector Rodney Stich had been given the assignment to correct the conditions responsible for the worst series of airline disasters in the nation's history. Pictures of many other crashes are not shown. Recent Catastrophic Consequences Of Corruption and Cover-Ups The continuation of the culture of corruption−and the continuation of the cover-ups−made many people and groups enablers of many subsequent airline disasters. The following aviation disasters occurred after forewarned information of the terrorist attacks were given to FBI agents by a mole inside a key al Qaeda cell: TWA Flight 800, departing a New York City airport was downed, shortly thereafter. Strong Suspicion of Terrorist Act. See the book, Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries.

The decades of preventable airline disasters and their enablers are described and documented in the book, Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries. American Airlines Flight 587 (Strong indications of Terrorist Action) Forewarned Bombings of U.S. Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania U.S. Embassies in Africa: While the United States has embarked on a series of major constitutional and legal violations in the interest of protecting the nation against terrorists, including the start of two wars, the main people and groups whose documented corruption enabled catastrophic events to occurred against the United States and its people are being totally ignored by the uninformed and unsophisticated American public. List of Documentary Books On Endemic Corruption in the United States More information about these books by clicking here. Consequential Tragedies are Not Limited To Aviation and External Terrorists Corruption of the type described at this site does not occur in a vacuum. High-level corruption in one area is simply one tentacle of a widespread culture of corruption. And the consequences of that corruption−and the endemic cover-ups−have consequences in other areas. While heavy reference is made to the terrorist attacks made possible by the pattern of corruption and cover-ups, this same culture of corruption affects the people and the nation in many other ways. One of the most dramatic as it has been affecting the nation's financial health for years are the massive frauds in the housing and financial sectors that mirrors other tentacles of the endemic corruption feeding upon the nation's resources. Victims−And Passive Enablers Based upon the lack of interest in reading books on such matters, and remaining blissfully happy in that state, there is virtually no chance that things will get better. It may be best for the American public to recognize their status as a feeding trough for the people and groups that feed upon them through massive frauds. Return to: www.defraudingamerica.com www.unfriendlyskies.com www.druggingamerica.com www.defraudingamericablog.com www.transoceanairlines.com This page provides another example of one of the many tentacles of corruption and cover-ups that are endemic in the United States. The culture of those in control of the federal government continues to inflict either directly, or indirectly, in an endless number of tragedies affecting the American people, the nation, and people of other nations. Yet, the gullibility of the American public continues, made possible by their refusal to be readers of books on these subjects written by many courageous insiders and concerned writers with knowledge of these problems.
