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 light 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.
THESE EPISODES AER NOT TO BE MISSED!
