DEFRAUDING AMERICAPart 15

by Rodney Stich

 

SUPREME COURT APPROVAL OF

UNLAWFUL SEIZURE

 

(Book available: Diablo Western Press, Inc., P.O. Box 5, Alamo, California 94507 OR P.O. Box 10587, Reno, Nevada 89510)

 

A federal judge in Los Angeles threw out the indictment against Mexican physician, Dr. Humberto Machain. Entered into the court records were the declarations of a Mexican informant that another doctor, Fidel Kosonoy, was responsible for administering the drugs that kept an American DEA agent, Enrique Camarena, alive so that the agent could be tortured for obtaining additional information. Kosonoy was the personal physician of Rafael Caro Quintero, a Mexican drug trafficker. Justice Department prosecutors withheld this declaration that contradicted their charges against the Mexican doctor.

 

The Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the right of Justice Department officials to invade a foreign country and seize their citizens in this manner. This is the same group that upheld the right of Justice Department prosecutors to imprison me in retaliation for reporting federal crimes and in retaliation for exercising constitutional and statutory remedies. There was an exception: Justice John Paul Stevens called the decision "monstrous," which it was. The United States has given federal bounty hunters carte blanche to violate a widely held principle of interntional law, implying that foreign countries can do the same to U.S. citizens.

 

Chief Justice William Rehnquist upheld this shocking viola­tion of international law on the basis that "the treaty says noth­ing about the obligations" of the two countries "to refrain from forcible abductions." Using this rationale, U.S. bounty hunters can kill foreign citizens in foreign countries if the extradition treaty says nothing about that issue.

 

The Supreme Court Justices held that it was legal for Ameri­can bounty-hunters to invade the sovereignty of a foreign coun­try, use force if necessary, including killing foreign citizens and police of such foreign country, and kidnap them, bringing them to the United States, before our biased and corrupt system, with Justice Department-appointed "defense" attorneys, to be held for trial. These are the same Justices who have obstructed justice when I repeatedly brought the corruption described within these pages to their attention via petitions, appeals, and letters.

 

Foreign nations and their media strongly criticized the United States Supreme Court for this position. Chile's most important newspaper, El Mercurio, reacted to the Supreme Court's ruling with the heading, "Caramba! they've legalized terrorism." the June 23, 1992, editorial summaraized the arrogance:

 

The decision promotes contempt for the rule of law and the right of due process, violates national sovereignty and opens the door to acts of reprisal among nations. And what happens if U.S. agents--or people cooperating with the U.S. --clash with police in Mexico, Colombia or some other country, with gunfire that may even injure or kill in­nocent bystanders?

 

Chilean Socialist leader Marcelo Schilling said of the Supreme court rule that it was "the law of the jungle in which the weaker countries will lose out." Guatemalan President Jorge Serrano called the Supreme Court's ruling an "unacceptable ju­dicial monstrosity."

 

When asked what he thought of the kidnapping doctrine, le­gal adviser to the State Department, Judge Abraham Sofaer, testified before Congress in 1985:

 

How would we feel if some foreign nation ... came over here and seized some terrorist suspect in New York City, or Boston, or Philadelphia ... because we refused through the normal channels of interntional, legal communications to extradite that individual?

 

In 1989 the Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Of­fice of Legal Counsel, William P. Barr, held that the FBI could legally seize suspects in foreign countries, even though they had never been in the United States and had never commit­ted any offense in the United States.

 

The heading in the Mexico City newspaper El Financiero read: "bush and the Culture of Terrorism." The article de­scribed the "new world disorder in which the United States ... can kidnap, torture and assassinate citizens from other nations."

 

On November 11, 1990, the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs came into force, and passed a resolution stating in clear text that a treaty party "shall not undertake in the territory of another Party the exercise of ju­risdiction and performance of functions which are exclusively reserved for the authorities of that other Party by its domestic laws."

 

It was the invasion of Mexico under orders of Justice De­partment officials that required this restatement of international law. The resolution was introduced by Canada and mexico and approved by the United Nations group. The United States ratified that convention agreement in 1990, and then promptly violated it by seizing a mexican citizen in Mexico in 1992.

 

In response to the U.S. kidnapping of a Mexican citizen and the U.S. Supreme Court upholding that act, the Mexican senate approved an amendment to the Mexican criminal code imposing a 40-year sentence on anyone who kidnaps Mexicans on behalf of the United States or any other foreign authority who may wish to duplicate America's invasion of a foreign country's sovereignty to kidnap foreign citizens. So intense was Mexican anger toward the United States that the bill was approved unanimously, and then approved by President Carlos Salinas de Gortari. This new law was Mexico's response to the U.S Supreme Court ruling in June 1992 that approved the 1990 kid­napping of the Mexican doctor from Mexico.

 

WEAVER FAMILY AGAINST THE

"BRAVE MEN" OF ATF AND JUSTICE

 

At an isolated mountain-top home in Idaho, five hundred heavily armed ATF and FBI agents, U. S. marshals, local law enforcement agencies, military vehicles and tanks, surrounded a small home owned by Randy Weaver, a former Green Beret. Weaver was on the Justice Department's hit list for refusing to cooperate in an undercover operation against a group of local skinheads. Weaver had been asked to infiltrate the group, and after attending a few meetings, Weaver didn't want anything more to do with the plan.

 

The chance came for ATF and FBI personnel to retaliate against Weaver when he sold a shotgun in which the barrel was allegedly a quarter inch shorter than the law allowed. Justice Department prosecutors charged Weaver with a federal offense and ordered him to appear in federal court at Boise, Idaho. When Weaver failed to appear, due to an error in the reporting date made by the court clerk, six U.S. marshals in camouflaged clothing sneaked onto Weaver's mountain-top property. Weaver's dog spotted the intruders and started barking, after which a family friend, Kevin Harris, and 14-year-old Samuel Weaver went to investigate.

 

As the dog approached the intruders they shot and killed the animal. The young boy cried out, "You've killed my dog," and then ran back toward the house, at which time one of the U.S. marshals shot him in the back, killing him. Harris, who had gone with the young boy to investigate, witnessed the killings and shot back at the strangers, killing one of the marshals. [H: Actually this is not so--one of the marshal's own comrades killed him.] Back at the house, Randy Weaver, who heard the shooting and seeing his son lying on the ground, and not know­ing the trespassers were federal agents (and surely not caring at this stage), shot at the intruders.

 

The remaining U.S. marshals then retreated, returning with a force of over 500 heavily armed, battle-ready, FBI and other federal personnel, bravely massed to do battle against the father, the mother, a daughter, and a friend. Included in this armada against the family under siege were tands and other weapons of war.

 

During this siege, the father crept to a storage building adja­cent to the house to view the body of his slain son. Huddled in their cabin, frightened by the massive force surrounding their humble home, the mother opened the door and stood in the doorway, holding her infant daughter in her arms. A federal agent shot her with a large caliber rifle, splitting her head apart. Blood spurting from her head, Weaver pulled his wife inside and laid her down on the kitchen floor, as blood drained from the lifeless body. Frightened, Weaver and his children lay on the blood-spattered floor, expecting to die at any moment. Out­raged neighbors and people from all over the country con­verged on the site, protesting the slaughter.

 

Several members from a concerned citizens group in Hawaii arrived, as did people from throughout the state, including Lt. Col. James "Bo" Gritz, a candidate for the 1992 presidential election. Their presence may have saved the remaining hostages from annihilation. Gritz arranged for the wounded Weaver to surrender to the federal marshals.

 

Justice Department prosecutors obtained an indictment against the remaining Weaver family from a rubber-stamp fed­eral grand jury in Boise (September 16, 1992), charging the victims with federal crimes. The indictment against the father, whose son and wife had been killed by federal marshals read in part:

 

Vicki Weaver and other members of the family did unlawfully, willfully, deliberately ... shoot, kill and murder one William F. Degan.

 

That indictment, as worded, included the infant whose mother had been killed.

 

A jury eventually cleared Weaver of the murder charge, but held him guilty of the gun charge.

 

KILLING A NEARLY BLIND RANCHER

 

Another example of the vicious mindset of ATF and Justice Department agents was the shooting death of a wealthy and nearly blind rancher, Donald Scott, near Malibu, California (October 2, 1992). Federal personnel had tried to buy the ranch to expand the adjacent Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. But Scott, a recluse, partially blinded by recent cataract surgery, didn't want to sell.

                     

A multi-agency drug task force of over two dozen heavily armed California and federal agents mounted a military-type assault upon Scott's home. The invaders were from the Los Angeles County sheriff's department, the Los Angeles Police Department, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the National Park Service and the California National Guard. They were allegedly looking for a field of marijuana they claimed that a federal agent had spotted from a plane flying a thousand feet over the 200-acre property in the hills above Malibu, called Trail's End.

 

Instead of going to the ranch in a peaceful manner with a search warrant, they conducted a commando-type raid, breaking into Scott's home while he was sleeping, killing him as he came out of his bedroom. No marijuana plants or drugs were found on his property.

 

There was no reason for this commando-type raid, as there was no need for the element of surprise. If Scott had actually been growing fields of marijuana, he could not suddenly dispose of it down the toilet, and the peaceful serving of a search warrant was all that was necessary.

 

Investigation showed that the real motive was not a search for drugs, but a desire to seize Scott's ranch under federal forfeiture laws. Scott's wife had been a former user of drugs and if the slightest traces of drugs could have been found on the property, the five million dollar ranch could be seized under the draconian federal forfeiture laws.

 

Subsequent investigation revealed that federal agents had obtained a property appraisal before invading Scott's home, showing the value of adjoining property, and indicating the desire to seize the property. Federal personnel in charge of the raid advised the attacking agents to look for evidence of drugs so as to justify seizing the property.

 

ENLARGEMENT OF THE WEAVER TRAGEDY

 

The Weaver tragedy received very little press coverage, even though it indicated a very dangerous mindset by ATF and Justice Department officials. By ignoring it, as in every other form of corruption implicating federal officials, the pattern continued and worsened. On Sunday morning, February 28, 1993, about one hundred heavily armed Alcohol, tobacco and Firearms agents (ATF) invaded the residence of a religious group in Waco, Texas, attacking the building with loud shouts as if they were attacking a drug cartel. There were about a hundred people inside the residence, primarily women and children.

 

The religious group resided in a large building on property known as Mount Carmel, by a religious group known as Branch Davidians. They were a relatively peaceful group, harming no one, wanting to be left alone. As is common in Texas, and to earn extra money, the group frequented gun sales, and had accumulated a large cache of various types of weapons. They also knew about the Weaver tragedy and others, and didn't want the same to happen to them. They were more aware of the government arrogance than most Americans.

 

Upon hearing the shouting horde of heavily armed para-military group descending upon them, the religious group locked the doors and braced for an attack. ATF agents broke windows and shot into the residence, killing eight people inside, including a two-year-old girl. As agents started entering the building, the people started defending their home by fighting back, killing four of the assaulting ATF agents. Firing stopped, and the para-military force retreated, followed by a nearly two-month stand-off.

 

The residents placed bales of hay against the gaping holes in the walls and where the windows were knocked out. Federal agents ordered electricity cut off to the compound, forcing the residents to use kerosene lanterns for illumination, creating a high fire risk. Government agents blasted the occupants twenty-four hours a day with loud noised, and shook the building with the movement of huge military tanks. Several of the besieged residents gave up and left the building, at which time they were immediately arrested and charged with conspiracy and murder of the four ATF agents who had invaded their residence.

 

The ATF agents were joined by FBI agents and National Guard troops, equipped with heavy attack vehicles and tanks, surely the envy of many third-world military leaders. They were brave men, ready to do battle with the frightened little religious group consisting mostly of women and children.

 

If the besieged residents had any hope that public pressure would bring a halt to the siege, they were sadly mistaken. The government's Wurlitzer-like manipulation of the media sought to make the besieged victims the culprits.

 

The large building in which the occupants were trapped was an old wooden building and highly inflammable. A fire starting inside the structure could be expected to spread rapidly, especially if the winds were blowing hard, as they often do on the Texas prairie. Once fire started inside, escape would be very difficult, In the MGM Hotel fire in Las Vegas many years earlier, the fire in the football-field-size main casino spread so rapidly that people on the far side of the casino from where the fire started were engulfed in flames before they could make their escape.

 

APOCALYPTIC ASSAULT

 

Early in the morning on April 19, 1993, while the lanterns burned inside the building, the war-ready heavily-armed military force commenced an attack, using armored vehicles and tanks, knocking down walls that fell inward upon the residents. Inside the building, sections of sheetrock and wood rained upon the frightened occupants, knocking burning lamps onto the piles of hay, causing them to ignite. As if this weren't enough, over 200 tear gas canisters were thrown into the building.

 

[H: Yes, we DO ALL KNOW that this is but a brief summary of Hell. We are not here to detail incidents of this sort--for the facts are now "out there" for all of you to see. Stich is using this and other instances for your consideration regarding the subject in point--the federal government as a criminal enterprise. We could talk about the stand-in at Red Beckman's TODAY and the fact that "that" was to be a cover for harassment of the Clare Prophet Germain group nearby. Its called diversion tactics and/or distracters. But THAT IS WHY we are bringing as much more publicity to any given incident as possible--THEY HAVE TO RECONSIDER THEIR ACTIONS IN THE FACE OF PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE. EVIL HAS TO PULL ITS DIRTY WORK IN SECRET AND 'THEN PAY OFF WITNESSES TO LIE OR THEY CANNOT CONTINUE THIS NIGHTMARE OF DARK OPERTIONS. We aren't offering all this because Dharma likes to type. She has been in the middle of the ATF through the RTC come to call with their big guns--secreted around the hillsides behind and around her home. It is amazing that in that instance Gritz said he would be here to stand with her and E.J. But, as it turns out Green told him that the house instance was a lie and they had actually stolen the property from the Savings and Loan. WORSE-- GRITZ NOW TELLS THE SAME LIE ON HIS RADIO SHOW AND TELL.

 

Remember, dear friends, when the shake-out comes--you will find that ones you thought to be your blood-brother will have been among the ones set forth to destroy you for their own greed and avarice or whatever else they can claim. George claims he was just working to get out the WORD OF GOD!(???) So far, he like Gritz now, everything they have claimed against Ekkers, in this example, they are guilty of in all respects!! Is this ignorance on the part of some of the players? Perhaps but in these examples THAT IS NO EX­CUSE. ALL THESE PLAYERS HAVE ACCESS TO TRUTH IF THEY BUT LOOK AND HEAR. INDEED, IT IS NO EXCUSE!

 

I think you readers would like to hear the "latest" prattle about Ekkers. This comes now that even Russbacher was told and actually thought, that they and the Institute were deep-cover "Agency" proprietaries. As a matter of fact it was to the extent that thousands of dollars of travel expense were stacked against the Ekkers through a travel agency which was also claimed as a "proprietary" company. IS THERE NO END TO THE INCREDIBLE GARBAGE? However, local worn out players, it may well be WHY Green and et al continue the assault--they may actually believe that there is a bundle of money--simply belonging to the CIA or something bigger. Well, there IS something bigger--but it isn't MONEY!

 

* * *

 

Even our beloved John Schroepfer has been kidnapped from his place of institutional incarceration and spirited away to unknown OTHER imprisonment--so he can't see anyone, get attorney advise or "talk". Why? Well, it is now more serious than prior for Eleanor and her son Rod because they appear to have had a joint venture going to bring debilita­tion to John, steal away his assets, and literally "bump him off'. This is a scenario now brought to the surface for legal consideration as more and more evidence flows to the sur­face and documents are revealed regarding "plans" laid long ago. John said she hit him on the day of his "accident" and was poisoning him for a very long time. Is this so? My friends, anything is possible and thus you have to consider WHY they continue to do these blatant actions concerning this man. The investigation will not move right on into con­spiracy, of the "hospital", the institution, the physicians obviously acting in the conspiracy and apparently the legal personages who were supposed to "represent" him. As nearly as is being admitted, he was spirited away under cloak and demand for secrecy to somewhere in Northern California on Thursday night. This story is too long for this writing and of course at this time it is without documented PROOF as to some of the charges. It does not look good for Eleanor, however, and for her son to place his mother in such circumstances for his own purposes of gaining both estates of John AND Eleanor is unconscionable--it might remind you of ARSNIC AND OLD LACE! It moves into the category of being even worse than Luke Perry in his attempt to simply steal his step-mother's retirement funds.

 

Yes indeed, the ones here want to just "give up"--but who will be there to help them (OR YOU) when the criminal ac­tions come against YOU? No, this will have to be pursued. For one thing, it is rapidly moving from a civil action of mishandling of conservatorship to criminal assault and con­spiracy to deprive a person of his rights and property, in­cluding his LIFE. Now, as to the punch-line--THEY ARE IMPLICATING GEORGE GREEN IN THE FOUNDATION OF THE PLANNING. HE ASKED TO BE REMOVED AS GUARANTOR ON ANY OF THEIR NOTES OR TRANS­ACTIONS (EVEN WITH HIM PRIVATELY) AND HE WAS THEIR ACTING TRUSTEE FOR ELEANOR. How­ever, the notes in point were "stolen" from John (he thought). HE IS ALSO THE ONE WHO ASKED THEM TO DEMAND GOLD FROM THE INSTITUTE AND THUS AND SO. IS THIS SIMPLY CIRCUMSTANTIAL? EVI­DENCE OF ACTIONS AND DOCUMENTATION OF IN­TERACTIONS POINT OTHERWISE. It is using Eleanor and Rod along with Leon Fort that George and attorneys continue to push at the Institute for receivership. Interest­ing…..!]

 

The leader of the religious group rushed through the building handing out gas masks, and instructing the people to put them on immediately. The wind was blowing at over thirty miles an hour, roaring through the holes ripped in the building by the tanks, fanning the flames. Inside the resident were trapped and scared, and unable to escape. The blackness of the early morn­ing hours, the heavy smoke, the eye irritation caused by the tear gas, and the piles of debris in the hallways, made escape impos­sible for most of the resident. Eight managed to flee the searing heat, some of them with their clothes on fire.

 

Once the fires took hold, they spread in firestorm fashion, in­suring the fiery death of everyone inside. Many of the frightened women and children huddled in fear, feeling the effects of the searing heat. Suddenly, as the flames reached the butane fuel escaping from a ruptured tank, and explosion sent flames hun­dreds of feet into the air, an event seen throughout the world on television screens. Possibly never in the history of the civilized world had such an arrogant attack upon a group of people oc­curred, the horrible consequences watched throughout the world. [H: Still want to argue over "holocausts"?]

 

OILING UP THE MISINFORMATION MACHINERY

 

The Waco tragedy had the potential for waking up the American public to the mindset of their leaders. This possibility required oiling up the nationwide misinformation network con­trolled by various federal agencies. it appeared to work. While the residence was still burning, President Bill Clinton appeared on TV, stating the residents committed suicide and they were to blame for the horrible outcome. Clinton stated government agents and officials were not responsible because "a group of fanatics tried to kill themselves." U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno echoed his words. Clinton and Reno had other reasons for blaming the victims. The two of them had approved the attack upon the residents BEFORE THE ATTACK STARTED.

 

The same federal agents who inflicted this terrible tragedy upon the religious group stated they saw the residents starting the fire, basing that statement upon seeing someone bending over. It is very possible that the person bending over was trying to put out the many fires already started. [H: The facts remain that the public, even the news crews were KEPT WELL OVER TWO MILES AWAY--SO THEY COULDN'T WITNESS!]

 

Federal officials stated many of the bodies had bullet holes in them, implying they were shot by the leader of the religious group to prevent them from escaping the flames. Texas coroner Dr. Nizam Peerwani, heading the Tarrant County Coroner's of­fice in Fort Worth, stated: "There is absolutely no evidence of that, as far as we are concerned at this stage." Interviewed on Good Morning America on April 23, 1993, the coroner stated that because of the condition of the bodies it would be difficult to determine bullet wounds and that the immense fire left very little of the bodies to examine. He added, "When a corpse is exposed to such intensive heat, the head will often explode."

 

The bullet theory was important, to shift blame to the vic­tims. Later reports stated that there were bullet holes in many of the bodies. Anything stated by government personnel must be considered suspect in light of the long history of disinforma­tion and outright lies.

 

The establishment media, which had kept the news of the Weaver tragedy from the American people, couldn't hide the Waco tragedy as they did the Idaho assault. But they did repeat as fact, over and over again, that the group had committed sui­cide; that the blame for the holocaust was upon them and not upon the attacking military force.

 

Nine members of the religious group escaped the inferno and were immediately arrested and kept separate from each other. When questioned separately by their attorneys, each of them described what happened inside the building and stated the same facts. The survivors described the chaos in the building as the tanks inflicted heavy damage. They described the knocking over of the kerosene lamps by the tanks and resulting fires, the difficulty of moving about the building because of debris from the collapse of the second-story walls and due to the heavy smoke and tear gas. The smoke caused total darkness inside the building. "You couldn't see your hand in front of your face," stated attorney Dick Kettler, speaking of one of the religious group members, Remos Avraam.

 

Attorney Dick De Guerin stated that his client told him "there was pandemonium, they knew they were trapped. It was difficult to move around even before the fire started because the tank battering had damaged the inside of the compound."

 

After hearing the facts stated by the survivors, Clinton repeated during an April 23, 1993 press conference what he had stated several days earlier, that the victims were responsible for their deaths. "I do not think the United States government is responsible for the fact that a bunch of fanatics decided to kill themselves." [H: Well, perhaps those Jews in the WW II holocaust were just committing suicide???] Clinton used the disinformation given by Justice Department agents to support his statements, even though they were contradicted by the independent statements of the survivors, and common sense. [H: Now we all know that since the release of this book--the railroading continued right up to trial of these victims who managed an escape and some were actually convicted of various "crimes". However, it is important to note that most were found innocent of any wrongdoing--A YEAR IN INCARCERATION AFTER THE FACT!]

 

END OF PART 15.

 

Please bear with me, Dharma, for one more sitting for I think we can finish this chapter for the paper if we stay right with it. Thank you.
