SAMURAI SUNRISE:
THE LAST HOURS BEFORE MIKE RUPPERT’S DEPARTURE FROM THE UNITED STATES

The excerpt below was written by a friend of Michael Ruppert, who is also a member of the From The Wilderness website team of reporters:

.........As I ponder his thirty years of harassment and attack by the U.S. government and the so-called progressives, ill-informed, who willingly join the chorus of defamation, I am most astonished by one thing: None of the attacks on Michael C. Ruppert have ever been delivered at the only level that really matters—the impeccably-researched, painstakingly-documented evidence that he has committed his life to delivering in the most ethical, thorough, fastidious, and intellectually sound manner. Little intelligence, critical thinking, or valor is required for National Enquirer-style cheap shots, lurid depictions, and ad hominem attacks. How do those begin to compare with the resolve of one human being to risk his life, his career, his financial security, and his reputation in order to uncover evidence which he has not only researched but onerously lived and experienced? Where are the scions of pristine journalism that will take on the tome called “Crossing The Rubicon: The Decline Of The American Empire At The End Of The Age Of Oil” which has now found its rightful place in the library of the School of Business at Harvard University? They are nowhere—or at least, they remain mute, apparently hiding behind the curtain of character assassination in vapid intellectual wastelands of melodramatic sensationalism. Refusal to engage with factual evidence and resort instead to tabloid tactics raises the most pivotal question of all: Who are the real people of courage? Who are the real cowards?.........

My comments:

Michael Ruppert wrote the book, Crossing The Rubicon, which in utterly extensive and documented fashion, outlines the events leading up to 9-11, and exposes the information that points in a clear and sensible manner to just " who " the criminals and perpetrators really are, regarding the casual factors behind 9-11. Mike has worked diligently and tirelessly for most of his adult life to get the word out about the ongoing , mindboggleing, corruption that infuses this countries government, and economic system. He is a true man of honor, who holds ethical behavior as one of the most important goals of one's life. The criminals who run this country ( and you know who I'm talking about ) are doing thier best to silence him, so those he seeks to inform, will continue to remain in ingnorant bliss. Mike has fought the battle long and hard to get the truth out, but he is literally fighting a system, filled with such levels of corruption, that after 30 years, you could hardly blame him for feeling the need to get away from the danger those evil minded one's in this country pose to him. In recent weeks he has continued to feed From The Wilderness with new stories, even despite his sparse economic and lifestyle conditions at present where he is currently residing in Venezuala. The fact remains, the reality is, he is still very much in danger, even being out of the US. So this folks, is what happens to people who get to close to the truth of the powerful and corrupt ones. I respect greatly what this man has done with his life. If anyone has tried to stop the madness of this US government, worked for long years to change things for the better by exposing the lies of the greedy and powerful people in this nation, Mike is a man who has done just that. Maybe, finally, one day, they will just take him out. Then we will have lost one of the very special people who could really have changed things, only if enough people would have listened to his urgent messages, about the countless lies regarding events in this country, posed as truth. Its all about smoke and mirrors, and Mike has the wisdom to see though the haze of deception, and the gift of deciphering the truth, behind the shiny facade.
