Activist against harmful and sometimes deadly
corruption in government, from 1965 to the present date. In this role, he
relied upon the information and evidence he acquired as a government agent
and then private investigator, and upon the information provided to him over
the years by a combination of insiders. These insiders included former
personnel in such government agencies as the FBI, CIA, ONI, INS, Secret
Service, former drug smugglers carrying out drug operations for government
personnel such as the CIA, and former Mafia figures.
Author of numerous highly detailed books, for
the sole purpose of advising people of the little-known misconduct of people
and groups in overt and covert government operations, and the unrecognized
ripple effects resulting in great harm, sometimes fatal, upon countless
numbers of people. (List

More background information on Captain Rodney Stich:
Discovery of Intrigue
Unknown to Most People
Starting with his assignment to correct the corrupt conditions responsible for the worst series of airline disasters in the nation's history, and continuing to this day, Stich and his coalition discovered endemic corruption, related to multiple areas of great harm, sometimes deaths, and sometimes, catastrophic events. A sampling of links provides more details:
Corruption in the government's aviation safety offices responsible for years of aviation disasters, the latest in the series being the hijackings of four airliners on 9/11.
Criminal activities in other areas of overt and covert government operations.
The criminal cover-ups by federal judges as Stich sought to report the ongoing corruption, as required by the federal crime reporting statute.
The hoard of lawyers filing sham legal attacking that had as the primary intent halting the reporting of the criminal activities.
The years of cover-ups by members of Congress, who repeatedly refused to act when a multiple of ongoing criminal activities were brought to their attention from 1966 to the present date.
Under Continuous Attacks by Lawyers
And Judges, With Single Goal:
Halt Stich's Exposure Activities
Starting in 1982, and continuing at this time, over 100 lawyers, law firms, California and federal judges, misused the courts, repeatedly violating state and federal laws and constitutional protections. violating criminal statutes, trying to silence Stich. Several of the previously uploaded pages referring to these attacks are listed here:
- Sequence of the attacks.
- Sequence of the legal attacks.
- Using a possible wife-murderer to silence Stich and seize the books exposing the corruption.
- The latest attempt by Pasadena lawyer Guerrini to seize the books before the public learns of the corruption.
Sampling of
Aviation Disasters in Areas
Where Stich Had Government
Airline Safety Responsibilities
The following are a sampling of the airline disasters in programs for which Stich has hands-on airline safety responsibilities. These crashes were enabled to occur by a deep-seated pattern of safety corruption that Stich discovered during his official duties and which he sought to correct. These efforts led to the discovery of other areas of corruption.
The efforts by him to expose what he and his coalition of other insiders had discovered led to decades of brutal attacks upon him, causing his to suffer serious personal and financial harm. He was corruptly stripped of his life assets in an attempt to halt the exposure activities that were funded by these assets.
Several of the nation's most catastrophic airline disasters occurred on the program for which he had direct responsibility as an FAA air carrier operations inspector.
Continuation of Catastrophic
Events
Enabled by Corruption That
Stich Sought to Report and Halt
Over a period of many years, Stich and his coalition discovered other areas of corruption. The combination of what he discovered, the constant cover-ups of these matters when he reported the problems to people in government, and the retaliation against him, all played a role in the continuation of the conditions that made the following sampling of consequences possible.
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. This link provides information on 100 surface-to-air missiles being made available to Middle East terrorists about one year before the downing of TWA Flight 800; the rejection of the missiles by FBI-CIA personnel, and the letters written by former federal agent Rodney Stich to members of Congress seeking to prevent the transfer of the missiles. No response−followed by the missile downing of TWA Flight 800. Followed by the need for the standard cover-up to protect high-level government personnel.

Additional FBI Enablers To
Downing of TWA Flight 800
In a recent book, Crimes of the FBI-DOJ, and the Mafia, details are given of how a Mafia soldier acted as a mole inside the al Qaeda cell headed by Ramzi Yousef, who directed the earlier bombing of the World Trade Center and had plans to simultaneously bomb 11 U.S. airliners departing Far East locations. The advance warnings were disregarded by high FBI-DOJ personnel who sacrificed the lives that would be lost so as to protect personnel in the Department of Justice. Very sensitive information, that would also play a role in ignoring the warnings of planned terrorist attacks on other U.S. targets. That cover-up enabled to occur approximately 4,000 deaths as the forewarned terrorist attacks occurred.
Advance Notice of
Bombings of
U.S. Embassies in Africa
FBI-DOJ personnel were given advance notice of the bombing of two U.S. embassies in Africa by a mole inside the al Qaeda cell headed by Ramzi Yousef. One was in Kenya and another in Tanzania.
In the 1000-plus pages at this Internet site are pages that provide a quick insight into major events that have affected the lives of most Americans. A sampling of the links follows:
More information on the enablers to those catastrophic events:
Information provided by a mole inside the al Qaeda cell headed by infamous Ramzi Yousef on the planned terrorist attack, information that was then "deep-sixth" by high-level FBI-DOJ personnel. Absence of preventative measures resulted in nearly 4,000 deaths.
Comparative blame for 9/11 between Afghanistan, Iraq, and the documented conduct of enablers in the United States.
Years of judicial blocks as Stich sought to report the ongoing corruption as required by the federal crime reporting statute.
Years of sham legal actions against Stich by a hoard of over 50 lawyers and law firms.
The combined legal and judicial tactics blocking the reporting of the corruption that had catastrophic consequences.
Sampling of letters Stich sent over the years relating to these matters:
Letters relating to the mole in the al Qaeda cell that provided advance warnings of several major terrorist attacks.

His Loyal and Constant Companion
Helped Him Survive Constant Attacks
Throughout a great part of the traumatic attacks upon Stich, he had one very loyal companion, his only loyal companion. He was also physical protection when several of Stich's sources of information were killed or found dead under mysterious circumstances. That companion was Midas, his German Shepherd.
After over ten years of companionship, which provided considerable support to Stich during great personal and financial losses, Midas passed away on April 3, 1997. Unless one had that kind of relationship with a near-human-like four-legged creature, during such difficult times, that bond may be difficult to understand. At Midas' death, grief-stricken Stich wrote a short memorial for Midas:
Good bye, old pal, you've been my closest and most faithful companion for the past ten years, sticking with me through very difficult times. I will always remember my German Shepherd, Midas. Your loving friend, Rodney.
Most Loyal Friend, When Others Scattered
No one can imagine the personal and financial harm that was inflicted continuously, day after day, for many years, upon Stich in an attempt to keep him from exposing the corruption he and his many other insiders sought to report and correct. His friends scattered, afraid to be associated with him. But he had one loyal companion throughout this period, who recognized his feelings, his stress, and his tears:
A more personal description of Captain Rodney Stich's background.
Nearing the End of the Twilight Years
Now nearing the age of 90, nearing the end of his life, Stich continues the fight against the arrogance and corruption in government, and the legal attacks from the legal fraternity that continues its efforts to silence him. He faces an uglier enemy than any he faced in World War II.
On April 11, 2009, Stich was 86 years young−and still fighting the impossible quest!At his funeral, Stich would like to have played, The Impossible Dream from the movie, Man of La Mancha:
To dream the impossible dream,
To fight the unbeatable foe,
To bear with unbearable sorrow,
To run where the brave dare not go,
To right the unrightable wrong,
To love pure and chaste from afar,
To try when your arms are too weary,
To reach the unreachable star,
This is my quest,
To follow that star,
No matter how hopeless,
No matter how far,
To fight for the right,
Without question or pause,
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause,
And I know if I'll only be true,
to this glorious quest,
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm,
When I'm laid to my rest,
And the world will be better for this,
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove with his last ounce of courage,
To reach the unreachable star.
Corny, maybe, but that is how he wants to believe that life can be.
Food For Thought
It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt. "Citizenship in a Republic," Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910.
