Defrauding America: A Pattern of Related Scandals

"Defrauding America" third edition is an eye opener. I have yet to read the fourth and last edition since the author's demise. He is sorely missed. I first learned about him from Am Coast To Coast with an alternative host to Art Bell. A quick internet search revealed his website, email, and postal address. I ordered a case of the third edition to pass out to anyone interested. My postal carrier's only comment after reading his copy was, "If just 25% of it were true..." This was his way of describing the magnitude of corruption and murder conducted by various branches of our federal government, and also their use of contractors to perform their dirty works, with impunity. Contractors were used in JFK's assassinations. Through this book I learned about Gunther Russbacher and Dois E. Tatum. And studying both men was helpful for me because my path crossed with theirs during my military service, although not directly. But the most sickening of them all is a whistle blower from the Army, a team leader for assassination squad parachuted into Indo-China in the late fifties. They were comprised entirely of Afro Americans, psychologically programmed by the CIA to commit horrific crimes in Vietnam including murder of American defense contractors (the CIA agents within the mainstream press then blamed the attacks on Viet Cong), and in one case the murder of a green beret and his visiting wife and family while they were having lunch in a floating pagoda in Saigon. (This incidence I remember reading in newsprint while in college. I served later during the 'nam conflict, although not in the theater. Of course the bombing of the pagoda was blamed on the VC.) The retired major stepped forward to reveal his background because he was having mental difficulties to reconcile orders his team received to kill children; at first Mr Stich found the stories so bizarre he did not quite know what to think. Mr Freeman was able to get copies of the military orders through FOIA to prove his claims. These were published in the third edition. If you want to know why many of the elite Green Berets that were captured did not return home read this book. In short, Freeman's team was ordered by Richardson, Chief of Station Saigon CIA, to eliminate the POWS in North Vietnam. I found an internet obituary about Richardson, who retired to Mexico. In that article it verified him to be the Chief of Station in Saigon, and his son was quoted to have said this: "He was proud of his service." This is the type of psychopath that Mr Stich reveals in his books, a man who was proud to have issued orders to kill American POWs. The published orders were redacted, and did not reveal Richardson's full name although the whistle blower did reveal the last name. I was able to cross validate through L. Pletcher Prouty's book on JFK in which he revealed Richardson's full name. Mr Prouty knew this singular entrance into his JFK book would somehow prove useful. Perhaps Prouty knew about the sinister activities of the CIA in Vietnam. RIP Colonel Prouty. And thank you, Mr Stich, you made a difference.

this book is amazing! im not quite through it yet but, it amazes me that people just sit there and let all this stuff go on....anyways AWESOME book i would reccomend it to anyone!

This book should be required reading for all citizens of the earth. If I had the money, (and people still read books) I would put a copy of this book in every highschool library. There is enough evidence in this book to put 50 years worth of "elected" leaders, judges, etc. in jail or in the ground. The crimes are hard to digest at times because of the extent of which most Americans swallow the big lie hook line and sinker. The most painful read is the "october Surprise" scandal and how Bush caused the hostage situation to prolong. George Bush. To the gallows with him and the rest of the lot.

This series of revelations of official criminality is the most important American book ever written. It is a must-read for anyone who cares about our nation. By presenting abundant supporting evidence the author clarifies what is otherwise a murk of national rumors and scandals. His writing is so coherent as to almost render his evidence superfluous. Ultimately, this book raises the question: Can America save itself? Considering that this book provides detailed self-incriminations by many key gov't officials - especially in the Dept. of Justice and many of its branches; the IRS and essentially the entire Congress - our chances of avoiding national destruction seem remote. If America is to survive; it must begin by reading this book. To America's Pantheon of Deathless Heroes: Nathan Hale, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Sgt. York, Audie Murphy, those named on the Viet Nam Memorial, Ex-FBI Agent Fredric Whitehurst; now must be added the name of Author Rodney Stich. His name is in our hearts now. If and when American is restored to justice his likeness and courageous deeds will become main components of our nation's lore.

Stich has done an excellent job at steering clear of wild conspiracy theories and sticking to the facts. This is a devastating account of government malfeasance at emanating from the highest levels of the Government; Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches. This book is not for the faint hearted. Anyone who reads this will quickly find his blood boiling and ask the obvious question, where is the media in all this? A MUST read.

Rodney Stich, with many years of roots in intelligence and investigative services, provides a listening ear to those who have served in the most clandestine of operations world-wide. His writing is clear, his sources verified and impeccable. Rodney early on revealed October Surprise and in his role as confidant to many to open the public to the misdirected efforts of intelligence, he has tracked the CIA/DRUGS operations to their present theaters. Nothing missing. Included is organized crime, money laundering, and a great deal of intrigue. The writings had particular meaning for me -- Rodney wrote of Operation Mount Rushmore which was partially funded by a resident of my own county, according to his sources. Operation Mount Rushmore was a plan involving CIA personnel to eliminate Bill Clinton when he ran for the Presidency in July, 1992 -- a plan that had to be scrubbed due to internal leaks. Rodney found confirmation of the plan from independent sources. Upon reading that funding for Operation Mount Rushmore was coming from a Napa County source, I noted that the referenced Gene Trefethen who owned a winery in Napa, had been Henry J. Kaiser's "right-hand-man" for years, the builder of the war industrial behemoth known as Kaiser Industries ... a government funded giant in ship-building which cranked out liberty ships to lend-lease to England, with more to support the U.S. effort during World War II. Following the wars, Kaiser turned its operations to the provision of health care, to become the largest private provider of health care in California. It's lucrative, and Clinton's plan for health care reform threatened to take Kaiser down. Clearly, Gene Trefethen had intelligence associations for years, and his substantial vesting in Kaiser would have provided motive for the financing of a murder attempt. Many local press articles hailed him as one of George Bush's most significant fund raisers in California. When he passed away in 1997, he was eulogized by George Bush and California Governor Pete Wilson, among others. As recently as December, 1998, a woman who occupied the guest cottage on the Trefethen estate with her two children was bludgeoned in a baffling assault. Was this a random assault, or a warning? Rodney's book is one that many can further validate from their own associations, experience, and knowledge. I highly recommend it for its explanations of many realities most dare not address, and answers to questions that have been "out there" for years.
