Cover-Up Enablers Making Possible The History of Great American Tragedies Other pages to this 1000-plus page internet site have described the corruption and the resulting great tragedies heaped upon the American people for the past 50 years. This page lists some of the people and groups complicit in covering up for these deadly and tragedy-related crimes. In almost every instance, their cover-ups constituted felonies under the obstruction of justice statutes. Decades of cover-ups by members of Congress. Decades of cover-ups by media people and corporations, some of which are on the payroll of the CIA and other government entities. Decades of cover-ups−and worse−by employees in the U.S. Department of Justice. Decades of cover-ups−and worse−by dozens of federal judges. Decades of cover-ups by the Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court. Cover-ups by the 9/11 Commission involving FBI-DOJ involvement in murders and cover-ups with deadly consequences; al Qaeda mole providing advance information on several major terrorist attacks; and much more. And the decades of cover-ups by other government "investigation" groups. Decades of cover-ups by the legal fraternity, including the ACLU. See also another listing of the cover-up pattern. Virtual Impossibility of Halting The Corrupt Culture The huge and all-encompassing list of people and groups involved in the cover-ups, or the underlying criminal activities, makes it improbable that the same people in control of the system that were implicated would now expose the crimes in which they were or are implicated. The American public has shown its unwillingness to show any concern. Even when former government agents foolishly act to address the government corruption, and they receive suffer severe retaliation, there still is no response from the American public. No change is a certainty. Consequences if Public Learned of the Corruption And Understood the History of Consequences There is no end to the adverse consequences if the media, or Congress, could force these matters to the public's radar, and inform them of the gravity of the history of corruption and cover-ups. History indicates that the public will not react until−like puppet masters−they are primed and in a subtle manner told to react. The enormity of the multiple documented areas of corruption involving key people and key groups in and out of government insures that no actions will ever be taken. And the past shows that the American public will never respond unless it relate to some parochial and personal matter that takes very little mental effort to understand, while ignoring far greater matters with catastrophic consequences. More Details on the History Of Cover-Ups for Serious Viewers In the 1960s, federal airline safety inspector Rodney Stich, holding a key hands-on safety responsibilities in areas with a continuing series of airline disasters, discovered and documented deep-seated corruption within the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and at United Airlines. His attempts to report and correct these problems resulted in the standard retaliation against anyone that exposes corruption of people in key government positions. Corruption of Management at the Tombstone Agency, The FAA—and History of Catastrophic Consequences In desperation, as the airline disasters continued to occur every few months, FAA inspector Stich used the law in such a manner that he acted similar to an independent prosecutor, charging key FAA personnel with corrupt activities, and conducted several months of hearings before an administrative law judge, FAA attorney William Jennings, on the FAA administrator's staff. Final closing brief presented at end of hearings, warning of the consequences if a cover-up occurred. (During the hearing, three additional major airline disasters occurred, all due to the same safety problems that Stich had repeatedly reported in writing, which were not acted upon, including the criminal violations.) At the urging of the FAA person that headed the Sky Marshal Program, Stich prepared a report that was sent to the head of the Federal Aviation Administration the detailed the specific and documented corrupt acts and the fatal crashes arising from the problems. The August 8, 1966, report was preceded with a cover letter. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) For convenience, that report is shown here in three parts and in Adobe PDF format: (Part One) (Part Two) (Part Three) The FAA administrator covered up and refused to take any action, thereby protect key FAA people whose misconduct was responsible for hundreds of people being killed in related airline disasters. It is ironic that the FAA attorney, later left the FAA and became the safety director for the Airline Passenger Association. Stich then left government service to circumvent the internal FAA cover-ups. Cover-Ups by Political NTSB Board Members Political personnel in the office of the National Transportation Safety Board were repeatedly notified by certain FAA inspectors of the corruption within the FAA related to a series of specific airline disasters and covered up. This obstruction of justice enabled the corruption to continue, along with the crashes which the NTSB political figures enabled to occur. Information about the misconduct by NTSB political board members. Lawsuit filed against the NTSB on the basis of the cover-ups that enabled the crash-causing conditions to continue. Cover-Ups by Members of Congress for Past 40 Years The continuing crashes caused the former federal agent to start sending letters to members of Congress. These letters described his professional and official duties, the specific acts of corruption, the continuing crashes, and offered to provide testimony and evidence. The charges relating to airline disasters were initially made while the disasters were occurring every few months, and continued at that rate for many years thereafter. The initial response was stating the seriousness of the charges−and then giving excuses for not exercising their moral and legal responsibilities. These letters to members of Congress continues for years thereafter as Stich discovered still other areas of criminal activities, some from his personal experiences and some from the many other government agents and insiders that provided him with what they had discovered. Duty to Immediately Act The recipient members of Congress had an immediate responsibility to take various actions, including: Requesting evidence and conducting hearings. The ongoing mass funerals resulting from the crashes demanded an immediate meaningful investigation. None ever occurred. Requesting the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to conduct an investigation of the serious charges. Under the federal crime reporting statute, they had the duty to receive the information, to conduct hearings, and also to provide the information relating to federal crimes to the Department of Justice. The federal crime reporting statute makes it a criminal offense for anyone knowing of a federal crime not to report it promptly to a federal judge or other federal officer, which would include members of Congress to whom Stich made the report. In turn, members of Congress then were under a mandatory responsibility to turn the information over to people in the U.S. Department of Justice. The congressional cover-ups knowingly continued the corruption, the crashes, and the deaths. In letters describing other areas of high-level corruption, the tragic consequences to major national interests, including national security, and to the American people, continued to occur. By their conduct, members of Congress committed felonies under the obstruction of justice statues, which were made even more serious by the deaths that such felony cover-ups allowed to occur. Cover-Ups by DOJ Personnel The corrupt activities by people in the highly politicized U.S. Department of Justice are endless, and described in almost all of the books written by former federal agent Rodney Stich with input from other government agents. The culture brought about by the corruption in the Department of Justice constitutes the greatest source of harm to the American people and the greatest threat, far more than any "external" terrorists. Sampling of letters sent to Justice Department officials reporting crimes against the United States. The latest book addressing the corruption of people inside the U.S. Department of Justice is Crimes of the FBI-DOJ, and the Mafia. It details and documents murders involving FBI personnel; a Mafia soldier acting as a mole inside the al Qaeda cell headed by infamous al Qaeda operative Ramzi Yousef providing information on planned terrorist attacks; the refusal by high FBI-DOJ officials to act on the warnings; and the carrying out of the terrorist attacks with 4,000 people killed. Attacks that may have been prevented if the information concerning them was not withheld. The reason for withholding the information? To discredit the mole who was to testify about the murders involving a key FBI supervisor and the mole's father (known as "The Killing Machine"). Cover-ups by Federal Judges and Criminal Retaliation Against High-Level Corruption Whistleblower In hundreds of pages at this site there are documented evidence of repeated felony obstruction of justice and felony retaliation by federal judges as they repeatedly blocked efforts to have the high-level corruption known to the American people. Filing federal actions seeking to report corrupt and criminal activities involving people in key overt and covert government positions. Every action was blocked by federal judges and Justice Department lawyers. Additional information relating to corrupt federal judges. Criminal contempt of court and seizure of assets in retaliation for reporting deadly corruption involving key people in government offices. Information about the actions by federal judges and Justice Department prosecutors to halt the former federal agent and witness from reporting the ongoing criminal activities: sham charge of criminal contempt of court and six month prison sentence for exercising the mandatory requirement of the federal crime reporting statute and the right of a citizen to report high-level criminal activities. Cover-Ups by ACLU Lawyers Letters sent to ACLU lawyers over a period of many years weren't even answered despite the pattern of corrupt misuse of the courts by California and federal judges. In this manner the same group seeking donations from the public was aiding and abetting: The criminal obstruction of justice by federal judges misusing the courts. The repeated major violations of civil and constitutions protections by federal judges and California judges, and the ACLU lawyers that initiated the start of the sham legal actions. Made possible the schemes that prevented exposure of corrupt conditions that were continuing to inflict great harm, even death, upon many people. They become enablers in the corrupt conditions that enabled terrorists to hijack four airliners on September 11, 2001. Cover-Ups by Lawyers Handling Crash-Litigation Cases Letters sent to lawyers and law firms dealing in aviation accident cases received replies about the gravity of what Stich was stating, but none would help. Instead, some simply used Stich's information in confidential negotiations with the defendants to obtain high settlements, including more money for themselves. Cover-Ups by 9/11 Commission Despite the fact that Stich was a highly experience pilot and held a key hands-on position in the government's agency responsible for airline safety, not a single response was received to Stich's letters and declarations sent to them. Part of the problem is described in the book, Crimes of the FBI-DOJ, and the Mafia. One of the commission members was a Department of Justice official that was involved in blocking measures being taken after being told by a mole inside an al Qaeda cell headed by Ramzi Yousef of several planned terrorist attacks, including the planned hijackings of U.S. airliners. To have included this information in the 9/11 Commission report would have endangered the careers of several high DOJ officials. See also cover-ups subsequently discovered of the 9/11 Commission members after Stich sent those earlier letters. Cover-Ups by Media People Concurrently, Stich sent letters to many people in the media, putting them on notice of the various forms of corruption that he and a group of other insiders discovered. He eventually learned that when the information of misconduct by people in government is of such great gravity media people would not report it. By their continual series of cover-ups of major hardcore corruption in government media people became complicit in the frauds inflicted upon the American people and the harmful consequences that they made possible. The only time that media people report corruption in high-level government offices is when the corruption is below a certain level. And any investigative reporter, or even a newspaper, that strays from this unwritten rule feels the retaliation from other media people and media corporations. Cover-Up: a Criminal Act Cover-up is a polite term for major criminal conduct making possible great American tragedies with great suffering by people and great harm to major national interests, and national security. See as examples the easily accomplished hijackings of four airliners on 9/11, or the worsening consequences from the housing and financial frauds. As described in the 1000-plus pages at this site, or the related books, the cover-ups were and are criminal acts under various federal criminal statutes: Obstruction of justice. Becoming guilty as a principle, with the underlying perpetrators. Becoming guilty as an accomplice to the underlying perpetrators. And when deaths arise, the crimes become capital offenses. Evidence of Powerful Force in Government The evidence of a powerful group high in the federal government is indicated by years of: Failure of any of the many government and non-government checks and balances to respond to the overwhelming amount of evidence from many present and former government agents and serious non-government investigators. The great number of books that have been written detailing and documenting the corruption. The years of felony obstruction of justice and other crimes that are never prosecuted by employees of the U.S. Department of Justice, who are themselves implicated. Check the murders perpetrated by FBI agents and the cover-ups by all media except a few local sources. The years of retaliatory actions against other government agents, including the sampling that form the coalition headed by former federal agent Rodney Stich. The years of felony cover-ups by federal judges, with every check and balance remaining quiet. The years of retaliatory actions against that former federal agent (and others), with total cover-ups by other checks and balances that had a responsibility to either publicize the corrupt or take action to prevent it. The absolute non-response to the receipt of letters and faxes from former government agents and professionals, reporting ongoing corrupt and criminal activities, with tragic, sometimes deadly, and sometimes catastrophic consequences, and refusing to respond, knowing that their cover-ups would enable the conditions to continue: Communications to members of congress. Communications to various people in the U.S. Department of Justice. Communications to media people and media corporations. Communications to ACLU, the group claiming to protect people's civil and constitutional rights and seek donations to carry out that alleged work. Communications to lawyers involved in aviation litigation. Communications to 9/11 Commission. Communications relating to murders involving FBI agents. Communications relating to FBI-DOJ personnel "deep-sixing" explosive information received from inside a major al Qaeda cell about planned terrorist attacks that subsequently occurred because of the cover-up. Communications relating to the pending acquisition of surface-to-air missiles by Middle East terrorists, with request to intervene. Which was followed by the downing of TWA Flight 800. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Communications over the years, based upon information direct from people involved in the activities, relating to: CIA drug smuggling associated with the covert funding and arming of Nicaraguan rebels. Secret arming and funding of Iraq during the Reagan-Bush administrations. The October Surprise, offering details and evidence as provided by CIA personnel who were involved. And much more. These communications identified the sender as a former key federal agent that had a coalition of dozens of other former government agents, professionals, and insiders. Implications are Grave for the People of the United States Although almost everything stated in the 1,000-plus pages at this site is supported by documents and other forms of evidence, if only a fraction of these charges are true, the people of the United States have been, and are being, subjected to corruption and harm beyond their wildest imagination. A serious look back at the harm suffered by individuals and groups, and understanding the background, would show the extent of the harm resulting from the endemic corruption and endemic cover-ups−and the high-level force that protects the participants and blocks any exposure activities. Excellent books to show these past areas of corruption includes: Defrauding America Drugging America. With the worsening level of unread Americans, there is little danger that these matters will be recognized by the American public. Long History of Corruption-Enabled Catastrophic Events As a result of the widespread corruption in overt and covert government operations, the systemic cover-ups that treat high-level corruption as the "third-rail," and the retaliation against whistleblowers, great American tragedies have repeatedly occurred, and will continue to occur. Harm to the American public in non-violent areas. Harm to people of other countries. Harm to the few people in the United States fighting the high-level corruption in a meaningful manner. Harm in general. Sampling of Early Consequences TWA Flight 800 U.S. Embassy Bombings 9/11 Easily-Preventable Multiple Hijackings These few examples of the horrors associated with airline disasters enabled to occur by documented corruption withheld from the American people. The standard culture of cover-ups in the United States enabled the corruption, cover-ups, to mutate into different areas. In the aviation area, although the continuing series of airline disasters eventually came to a halt for other reasons, the culture continued, and enabled to occur a number of easily preventable airline disasters. The inbred culture created the conditions that enabled four groups of terrorists to easily hijack four airliners within a few hours of each other and kill nearly 3,000 people. One of Over 200 Victims Choosing This Way to Die— Made Possible by Many Enablers in United States Consequences of Corruption, Cover-Ups, And Retaliation Felonies Not Limited to Aviation There were many other forms of victims from the systemic high-level corruption. These included for instance victims of the: Department of Justice prosecutorial misconduct, people being falsely charges with crimes in order to improve the prosecutors' career. The explosion of violent crime related to drug smuggling into the United States, in which CIA assets were major players. Series of financial frauds appearing every few years, with the latest housing and financial implosions surfacing in 2008. Seizure of assets from innocent people. And many other forms. These offenses are described in the books written by insiders. 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. The culture of corruption affects the people and the nation in many other ways, That includes the latest series of financial frauds that has occurred in the housing and financial sectors. Also, the effect of the endemic corruption and endemic cover-ups−major parts of the culture in the United States−that enablers successful terrorist attacks upon U.S. interests. Harm to People Overseas From Culture Of High-Level Corruption and Lies in the United States In addition to the decades of harm resulting from the systemic corruption of key people and groups in the U.S. government, affecting aviation safety, financial, human rights, in the United States, there is the harm from outside sources brought about by the actions of U.S. politicians affecting people in other countries—such as the history of invading and killing foreigners—there are the successful "terrorist" attacks made possible by high-level corruption, and then there are the foreigners who are also victims from the same high-level corruption that adversely affects the American, but in a different form. Remains of a girl—about the age of the 9-year-old Killed in Tucson in January 2011. In criminal law, people are accomplices, and guilty, if they know of a criminal act and fail to report it to proper authorities and also to take efforts within their capability to halt their continuation. And there are endless numbers of accomplices that are complicit in these crimes and enablers of the consequences. Suggestion to people outside the United States. Become familiar with the documented systemic corruption in the United States and show the outrage lacking of people in the United States, and: Help expose the endemic corruption that seem to be acceptable to the American people, and maybe wake them up. Help to protect yourselves against the decades of ham inflicted upon people of other countries by the actions of U.S. politicians—supported by much of the American public. Examples: Serial lying by U.S. politicians to use as a pretense to invade Iraq and Afghanistan, killing tens of thousands of innocent people. U.S. politicians shifting enabling blame from their own corrupt actions that encouraged and enabled four groups of terrorists to simultaneously hijack four airliners, and shift the blame to the people of Iraq and Afghanistan—with the help of a dumbed-down American public that is mostly too lazy to learn the truth.
