Michael Ruppert needs donations

[manxkat]

I, for one, have contributed. For those of you who have benefited by taking his advice about preparing for what's to come, this might be a good time to show your appreciation.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/101205_SOS_FTW.shtml" target="top">FTW Fundraiser</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br> <p></p><i></i>

I would, but I could use some donations myself. <p></p><i></i>

I'll consider donating. <br><br>Interesting side note on FTW, if you read the article explaining why FTW needs help you'll see some comments on Wing TV. <br><br>I've had limited contact with Wing TV. I've never been to their website or "watched" their show but I have heard 2 interviews with both of them, Thorn and Guliani. And I can tell you right now I don't trust them. <br><br>In one interview they were going on and on about how they embarrassed Alex Jones and how they exposed him as a fraud. I'm not a diehard PrisonPlanet junkie but I think Thorn and Guliani went overboard on congratulating themselves over ambushing AJ. <br><br>And after reading the FTW article, I am now incredibly suspicious of Wing TV and those two. <br><br>Anyone else have any thoughts about them? And why they are targeting underground educators such as Ruppert and Jones?<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

As far as I can see. Mr Ruppert is doing a lot better than the average citizen of planet earth. If he needs money, he can get a loan from his friends at Pinnacle Quest International. If he doesn't repay, he might lose a few fingers of course.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.madcowprod.com/MC6812004.html">www.madcowprod.com/MC6812004.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>I'm afraid I think that the waekest links in Ruppert's chain of work aren't remotely credible including his role as conspiracy clown for the peak oil movement run by former senior oil executive, Colin Campbell. <p></p><i></i>

Well eric144, if you'll read the plea, you'll find that also his TRUST FUND has been seized. You wouldn't want the man to go without his trust fund, would you. <br><br>He also mentions several former employees who've quit and are now engaging in "dirty tricks". Well, either he needs to seriously examine why he keeps hiring people who end up hating him, or to examine why his employees, including Pfeiffer, end up hating him. I doubt he's going to do that though.<br><br>But by all means, dig deep. Help him buy his house in the northwest so he can survive while the rest of you are dying from peak oil. Help him make more investments in gold, as he advises all of us to do. <br><br>as for Wing TV...nothing I say should be taken as an endorsement of them. I know zero about them. But Ruppert calls them a fringe site, so how much damage can they do to him?<br><br>The house of Ruppert is collapsing. His employees and writers are abandoning ship, probably sick of having to put up with his bully tactics and temper. He admits he hadn't even paid taxes in the last few years and had to spend lots of time and money dealing with that. I wonder how much of the last emergency fundraiser money was spent digging out of his IRS mess (he never suggests that it was anyone's fault other than his own...not claiming persecution by IRS...though I do know that happens.)<br><br>And now he wants YOU to pay for him to move to Pacific Northwest. <br><br>I love it. <br><br> <p></p><i></i>

The link didn't work for me, I haven't read it. I do however remember Russbacher and Delmart "Mike" Vreeland.<br><br>I don't think Ruppert is in it for the money exactly, but he does want to run a business on the basis of conspiracy theories which in my opinion is a very suspect enterprise. His link to PQI confirms that (for me). <p></p><i></i>

I think his main site is down. Here's the mirror he uses.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.copvcia.com/free/ww3/101205_SOS_FTW.shtml">www.copvcia.com/free/ww3/..._FTW.shtml</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

I poked around the WingTV site after they reported they were hacked and imho they're just a couple of slightly wacky amateurs. <p></p><i></i>

Crap, more melodrama. Basic message: <br><br>Ruppert is getting an inheritance sometime in the future, but he is not asking for a loan, he is asking for donations;<br><br>Ruppert wants to move to a sustainable location somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, and wants YOU to fund it;<br><br>Another reason he wants money from you is to fund his video;<br><br>Ruppert is in a financial pickle because his employees took advantage of him, employee, after employee, after employee, after employee, each with their own treachery;<br><br>Part of Ruppert's current difficulties results from having to pay back taxes that he didn't pay for several years due to "preparation for a now aborted incorporation planned for this spring";<br><br>And on and on and on...<br><br>READ the link in the original message. I'm NOT arguing peak oil, I am asking if this man lives on the edge by his self destructive behaviors.<br><br><br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=chiggerbit@rigorousintuition>chiggerbit</A> at: 10/13/05 10:21 pm<br></i>

A million dollars and the love of a good man.<br><br>I've read some good stuff at FTW, and some stuff I thought was questionable. However, the first person who's getting funding from me to set themselves up in a sustainable place is MOI, since I have no inheritance coming (my deadbeat parents are long dead and what they left me didn't last long, well, except for the psychic scarring <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ). <br><br>If I did have money my extra dough would all go to help some hurricane refugees get a new start. Then money for indigent cancer patients. Then the local no-kill shelter.<br><br>Regardless of whether he's a stellar investigative journalist or a blithering idiot, I think it's pretty frickin' cheeky in today's economic climate to ask somebody else to grease your hubs. <br><br>Really tacky too. <p></p><i></i>
