This book is a very well documented and thorough analysis of the corruption within the U.S. system of government.

Stich details his involvement with governmental misuse of power when he tries to bring to light the serious lack of safety precautions in the airline industry and how mandatory training programs were being inadequately done, and often not done at all. He experienced stonewalling, as well as retaliation, in the FAA's management when he would try to fulfill his duties as a federal air-safety inspector/investigator and was subverted from fulfilling his responsiblities all the way through to the federal courts by the Department of Justice. Despite these problems obviously leading to airplane crashes across the country, the FAA hierarchy refused to legally prosecute any of the airlines or personnel involved and subsequently allowed the crashes to continue due to their complacency.

As a result of Stich's continuous whistleblowing, retaliation ensued when his assets were seized (to take away the funding of Stich's activist activities) through misuse of chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, and his refusal to "surrender" eventually led to him being sentenced to prison on trumped up charges. (This happens. My father had a similar experience where his assets were unlawfully seized by somone with millions of dollars behind him and a judge in his pocket.)

In a federal corrections facility he meets Gunther Russbacher, a CIA asset with a very high covert position in the agency, who relates to him, through many subsequent contacts (with Stich out of prison), the large amount of conspiracies against the American public being perpetrated by high-level political leaders and governmental agencies. Thus ensues his exposure to extreme government corruption on all levels and the huge extent of this corruption as though there is another government behind the one which we think exists.

Stich has contacts with other CIA operatives, as well as DEA officials, federal employees, and many other deep-cover intelligence operatives (almost all of whom are named, and extensive documentation is given) who want to expose the crimes being perpetrated by the U.S. government against the citizens of the U.S. and the world.

Among the many crimes, the ones elucidated on the most are:

(1)the October Surprise cover-up involving the bribing of Iranians to withhold the U.S. hostages until Regan was elected President (causing Carter to lose face before the election, and involving George Bush at the center of the bribing)

(2)the Iran-Contra scandals, which were the subsequent consequences of the October Surprise situation, where the U.S. gov. sold arms to Iranians (supposedly for hostages), and the profits were used to buy more arms which were then exchanged to the contras in South America for drugs which they provided, and the training of assassination squads by the CIA

(3)CIA and DEA drug traficking, from heroin in Vietnam to cocaine in South America, making many politiicans, gov. officials, and private corporations rich, all with the supposed intent of keeping the trade out of the hands of the left-wing radicals

(4)the seizing of many people's properties in fraudulently run bankruptcy courts

(5)the looting of Housing and Urban Developement by federal officials and the "Denver group"

(6) CIA involevement in the looting of the savings and loan, how it was done and why

(7)money laundering by the CIA and affiliates through Nugan-Hand bank and Bishop, Baldwin, Rewald, Dillingham and Wong

(8)the theft of Inslaw's PROMIS software by the U.S. Justice Department and subsequent sales to foreign governments and various coverup murders

(9)BCCI and its contacts with Bank of America, the CIA, other banks, and the Justice Department coverup

(10)U.S. funding of Iraq and Saddam Hussein

(11)the silencing of "whistleblowers" by threats, false prosecutions, killings, and mysterious deaths

(12)mainstream media's involvement in covering up high-level conspiracies through non-reporting and campaigns of out-right disinformation

(13)the CIA's hand-in-glove association with Israel's Mossad agency (Barry Chamish knows this)

(14)Supreme Court complicity in the coverups

(15)Clinton's associations and dealings with sex, drugs, frauds, the CIA, and other illegal dealings

and many, many other felonious activities committed by those whom you would think could be trusted.

This is a book definitely worth getting for one to understand the extent of the "beast" within our government and around the globe.

As for why this corruption hasn't been brought to the attention of most Americans, my response is that it has. Even though it is largely ignored by mainstream media...many documentaries, television specials, articles in magazines and newspapers, and books have been done exposing at least some of the frauds and crimes, but the vast majority go ignored and without reaction. I have seen many of these types of publications and broadcasts myself, even on TBS. Some of these sources are documented in Stich's book along with MANY inside informants who DO come out and try to reveal the truth to people despite retalitaions by those they are informing against.

This book is extensively documented and very well put together. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it is so in-depth and so many names are dropped that it can turn some people off and leave one's head spinning due to TOO MUCH detail.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Buy this book immediately. It is an absolute classic. Stuff that the MSM media and MSM publishing houses simply can not print because a lot of this stuff is radioactively true and they can't print it either because they would come under political pressure or they have CIA assets in their executive suites.

When the operation goes bad, and THEY themselves become targets, CIA, DEA, FBI, FAA agents turn to Rodney Stich as they spill their guts and go public with blockbuster information about all sorts of official government crimes, assassinations, drug running, corruption.

This classic book is worth a $100/ copy simply based on the following passage:

"The Role of deep-cover CIA officer, Trenton Parker, has been described in earlier pages, and his function in the CIA's counter-intelligence unit, Pegasus. Parker had stated to me earlier that a CIA faction was responsible for the murder of JFK ... During an August 21, 1993, conversation, in response to my questions, Parker said that his Pegasus group had tape recordings of plans to assassinate Kennedy. I asked him, "What group were these tapes identifying?" Parker replied: "Rockefeller, Allen Dulles, Johnson of Texas, George Bush, and J. Edgar Hoover." I asked, "What was the nature of the conversation on these tapes?"
I don't have the tapes now, because all the tape recordings were turned over to [Congressman] Larry McDonald. But I listened to the tape recordings and there were conversations between Rockefeller, [J. Edgar] Hoover, where [Nelson] Rockefeller asks, "Are we going to have any problems?" And he said, "No, we aren't going to have any problems. I checked with Dulles. If they do their job we'll do our job." There are a whole bunch of tapes, because Hoover didn't realize that his phone has been tapped. Defrauding America, Rodney Stich, p. 638-639]

Hey, how come the New York Times, Wash Post, ABC/NBC/CBS/FOX/MSNBC don't tell ya stuff like that! Because they MSM is controlled, that is why. And they can't deal with the ugly truth about the underbelly of elite American politics.

Buy this book! It is one of my faves, an incredible resource to have. Btw, Rodney Stich is age 93 in the year 2010 and still going strong! Get some of his current stuff, too.

It is a bible considering the number of pages, but it's all worth it! It's a perfect read not just for conspiracy theorists. I definitely recommend this book to those who still believe that America is the guardian of human rights, freedom, and justice. Don't hate America for its flaws, change it, because we're capable for so much more!

I have found in this book another way to depict america's role in international and internal affairs(at least). A testimony on the blindness of our mediatic system !

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!

That's what I tried to determine while reading this book. I did strongly rely on previous reviews to acquire Stich's work, but in the end I'm not as enthusiastic as other readers.... Right up front, Stich makes an awful lot of pages about his personal crusade and how he got mistreated by a system which offered him but a deaf hear...Okay...got it, loud and clear.

Not satisfied with spreading his personal struggle, Stich too often feels compelled to repeat names and functions (as if the average reader was too dumb to remember the previous 2 pages), and makes constant, annoying references to his personal crusade even when he gets onto discussing other subjects.

Last but not least, I just find hard to believe such a gigantic conspiracy would exist, without someone involved turning his coat. I mean, in any criminal organization, someone sooner or later feels wronged, feels he/she did not get his/her fair share of the cake...Well, not in Stich's world. His crooks are highly professional thugs, who never would betray the system...Yeah right! There are good things in Stich's book, impressive testimonies, official documents etc...But it's just slightly to militant in tone to convince of the veracity of its speech. Faced to so much adversity, I can't understand why such a loudmouth, so-called whistleblower, has not yet ended up looking down the wrong end of a pistol, or taking his second amendment rights in hand litterally by grabing a good old 1911 to wipe out the herd of crooked Justice officials...

I wasted 28 bucks.
