-- File No. 005

"Sometime ago I had the opportunity to meet William Cooper and his wife Annie. It was part of my job to verify whether this man did indeed speak the truth or was just another person seeking fame and fortune. What I found was a rugged, bulldog, driven individual who was kind, thoughtful and tenderhearted. He was truly concerned about you and your welfare.

 

"Bill knew that people were badly informed by a society which spoon- feeds you deception until there is no distinction between fiction and reality. He sees what many other(s) see happening, and he is not afraid to do something about it.

"There are many who do not want you to know what Bill has to say. They have tried many times to stop him from saying it. The scars on his face and the loss of his leg are his bandages of sincerity on your behalf.

"No one becomes popular by telling people the truth. History records what happened to the true prophets of the past. However, some have listened to their warnings and were not caught off-guard. Others have put their heads in the sand and refused to listen.

"Bill has it together, and has put it together for you so you can also be one of the informed of the world. A well informed person can make the right decision. William Cooper has my vote of approval because I cared enough to find out who the man is. Now is your opportunity."

Here, then, is William Cooper’s Story:

"...There have been many related sequential coincidences all throughout my life, incidents that by themselves would have led nowhere. Statistically, the odds against the same or a related sequence of events happening to one individual are astronomically high. It is a series of incidents that have convinced me that God has had a hand in my life. I do not believe in fate. I do not believe in accidents...

 

"We have been taught lies. Reality is not at all what we perceive it to be. We cannot survive any longer by hanging onto the falsehoods of the past. Reality must be discerned at all costs if we are to be a part of the future. Truth must prevail in all instances, no matter who it hurts or helps, if we are to continue to live upon this earth. At this point, what we want may no longer matter. It is what we must do to ensure our survival that counts. The old way is in the certain process of destruction and a New World Order is beating down the door...

"I fear for the little ones, the innocents, who are already paying for our mistakes. There exists a great army of occupationally orphaned children. They are attending government- controlled day-care centers. And latch-key kids are running wild in the streets. And the lop-sided, emotionally wounded children of single welfare mothers, born only for the sake of more money on the monthly check. Open your eyes and look at them, for they are the future. In them I see the sure and certain destruction of this once-proud nation. In their vacant eyes I see the death of Freedom. They carry with them a great emptiness--and someone will surely pay a great price for their suffering.

"If we do not act in concert with each other and ensure that the future becomes what we need it to be, then we will surely deserve whatever fate awaits us.

"I believe with all my heart that God put me in places and in positions throughout my life so that I would be able to deliver this warning to His people. I pray that I have been worthy and that I have done my job.

"THIS IS MY CREED - I first believe in God, the same God in which my ancestors believed. I believe in Jesus Christ and that he is my savior. Second, I believe in the Constitution of the Republic of the United States of America, without interpretation, as it was written and meant to work. I have given my sacred oath ’to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against all enemies foreign and domestic. ’ I intend to fulfill that oath. Third, I believe in the family unit and, in particular, my family unit. I have sworn that I will give my life, if it is required, in defense of God, the Constitution, or my family. Fourth, I believe that any man without principles that he is ready and willing to die for at any given moment is already dead and of no use or consequence whatsoever.

The following document was released by William Cooper to members of various UFO RESEARCH and PATRIOT RESEARCH organizations. The manuscript, which ties together certain aspects of the "Secret Government" and the "UFO Phenomena", was titled:

 

The major UFO publications are without any doubt controlled by the CIA

from Casssopaea Website

 

"Vicki Cooper (no relation), the editor and publisher of ’UFO’, has been telling friends and relatives for the last two years that the ’CIA’ is pushing her magazine. Ron Regehr and Lee Graham remember the summer of 1988 when Vicki interviewed them at Mr. Graham’s residence in Huntington Beach. After the interview was over Vicki Cooper walked to her car, turned, and mysteriously yelled, ’You know, my magazine might be financed by the CIA.’

"I have talked to friends and acquaintances of Ms. Cooper who swear that she has stated on many occasions that ’the CIA controls UFO magazine.’ Vicki Cooper’s uncle, Grant Cooper, WAS SIRHAN SIRHAN’S DEFENSE ATTORNEY, WHO MADE NO ATTEMPT TO DEFEND HIS CLIENT. It was important to the Secret Government and the CIA that Sirhan be pinned as a ’lone assassin.’ GRANT COOPER HAS EXTENSIVE TIES TO THE CIA AND THE JOHNNY ROSSELLI MOB.

"We have found that Vicki’s son attends the West Point Military Academy. What a wonderful way to control a magazine! ’You don’t play ball, your son won’t graduate.’ I found out that the person who found Vicki Cooper an apartment when she arrived in Los Angeles was Barry Taff, A LONG-TIME EMPLOYEE OF THE INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES (YES, PLURAL) AND A LONG-TIME PROTÉGÉ OF DR. JOHN LILLY AND DR. J. WEST, THE GOVERNMENT’S PREMIERE EXPERTS IN MIND CONTROL. THESE MEN HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN THE MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIMENTATION EVER DIRECTED AT TOTAL CONTROL OF INDIVIDUALS. I believe that it is no innocent coincidence that Taff’s apartment is directly above Vicki’s. All of this was confirmed independently in a letter written by Mr. Martin Cannon, a Los Angeles-based researcher...

"The most damning evidence for the control of ’UFO’ magazine and Vicki Cooper comes from Don Ecker. At the 1989 MUFON Conference Don Ecker became so uninhibited that he managed to relate the following story to me and two others.

"According to Don Ecker, Vicki Cooper used to work for the infamous Mayflower Madam. The Feds were trying to get the Madam and discovered Vicki. Ms. Cooper was busted and threatened with spending the rest of her life in prison if she did not cooperate. Vicki rolled over, according to Ecker, and ratted on her employer. Since Vicki had apparently had something to do with the bookkeeping operation, she became a key witness.

 

The Mayflower Madame was put out of business and into jail, thanks to Ms. Cooper’s testimony. That is, if Don Ecker was telling the truth. We have no reason to believe that he was lying. I don’t know why Don told us. Maybe he doesn’t like Vicki. Or maybe he, like Lear and Friedman, thought I was one of THEM (It’ll be a cold day in hell).

"According to Ecker, Vicki Cooper was told to get out of town and stay out. She was given money and told to start ’UFO’ magazine in Los Angeles. SHE WAS TOLD THAT SHE WAS TO PRINT INFORMATION THAT WOULD BE FED HER. SURE ENOUGH, YOU READ IN ’UFO’ PURPORTED LEAKED GOVERNMENT INFORMATION, ALWAYS WRITTEN BY SOMEONE WHO CANNOT BE CONTACTED. It is always under an alias; no one can check the information. Vicki is adamant about printing only the news and information that she considers best for the readers, as if they have no mind of their own. She indulges in character assassination...

(Note: As we can see here, Vicki, like so many others who have been influenced through fear and intimidation into working for the CIA’s secret agendas, is not entirely to blame for her involvement in UFO mis-information. The blame must be put on the policy makers within the CIA itself, supposing that the policy makers are human, which might not ’ultimately’ be the case - Branton).

"You must understand that the government is not ever going to allow any person or group of persons to uncover the most highly classified secret in the world--if they can help it. They will always have agents controlling UFO groups, publications and information. If aliens are not real and the whole thing turns out to be the greatest hoax ever perpetrated, JUST WHO DO YOU THINK DID THE PERPETRATING?

In relation to some of the information which appears above, William Cooper released the following letter from a Martin Cannon of Canoga Park, California. The individuals name to whom the letter was addressed is not given:

"Dear (Name Deleted); "Thanks for your recent letter. GS regarding Vicki Cooper

"About Vicki -- well, thereby hangs a tale, one which has caused me no small amount of personal hurt and sorrow and bewilderment. I’ve inflicted my anger on everyone I know -- and you’ll be no exception, alas; I apologize beforehand for the torrent of spew to come...

"Her uncle is Grant Cooper, the attorney for Sirhan Sirhan - - and for the Johnny Roselli mob, which was intricately connected to the CIA. I am sending you photocopies of the relevant pages from Donald Scheim’s book, ’CONTRACT ON AMERICA.’ Theodore Charach’s film, ’THE SECOND GUN’ (released on MCI home video as ’THE PLOT TO KILL ROBERT F. KENNEDY’) contains interviews in which Sirhan’s mother curses out her son’s attorneys. As you know, they willfully disregarded testimony which could have helped Sirhan’s case. Morrow’s ’THE SENATOR MUST DIE’ also has useful information. Grant Cooper is as corrupt as they come, in my opinion: While defending Roselli’s men, he literally got hold of the prosecution’s list of potential witnesses. (Gee -- now why would the mob want a thing like THAT?). Actually, it’s a bit of a hassle to get the xeroxes made right now -- But this summary should do.

"As you can guess, the fact that Vicki has an uncle like this -- and a friend like Barry Taff -- made me nervous. My (UNREADABLE-FADED) was not quelled by Vicki’s frequent (UNREADABLE) about the CIA somehow ’pushing’ her magazine.

"Still, I felt I could trust her because she seemed so gung- ho when it came to exposing intelligence agency abuses. She was attending ARDIS lectures, familiarizing herself with the Christie case, reading Prouty, talking to Landis and Stockwell and John Judge -- all very impressive.

"But then she changed. Whereas we exchanged information almost daily, suddenly she grew more distant -- and when we did talk, an odd anti- soviet hysteria entered her dialogue. For example, she suggested (employing a truly unique quasi-logic) that the key to my UFO hypothesis might have to do with the ’massive’ Soviet infiltration of the media; apparently, the abductions are some sort of dirty red propaganda ploy.

"Her tone baffled me -- until I met her new boyfriend, one Don Ecker, ex-Green Beret and foreign-policy ’fascist’ (Vicki’s description -- although later she rather annoyingly pinned the words on me). Ecker and I had a genuinely nauseating conversation. He drunkenly interrupted an important discussion I was having with Richard Neal to inform us all of a project SPETSNATZ (the name rings a bell, but I can’t place it exactly) which, in his fantasies, involves a Soviet invasion via the north. He insisted that the odious Reds had already skulked across Alaska and were working their way through Canada! (I’m considering placing a call to Gnome information and ask if they’ve seen any rampaging bolsheviks lately.)

 

He also laughed at my assertion that Secord and North were involved with the Iran-hostage rescue mission. ’Look’s like you haven’t done your research, buddy!’ -- he said, before launching into the Soldier- of-Fortune version of the event. (Gee, I guess COVERT ACTION, THE NATION, THE MIAMI HERALD, and MO). I tell you all this not just because the encounter still smarts, but to give you some notion of the extreme rightist drisel he’s no doubt been feeding Vicki. When he upheld the policy of electrically torturing VC prisoners during the war, I flew into a volcanic rage, and spurted out that anyone who did that DESERVED to be called a baby- burner when he returned to the states. Later, when he relayed my statement to Vicki, he twisted my words to make it seem that I called him a baby-burner personally.

"You have to understand my position -- I once had dinner with a political refugee from Chile, who told me (and this was the sort of monologue that can induce a frightful insomnia in its listeners) of how he had undergone just this sort of electric shock torture -- and how the Special Forces played a large part in placing Pinochet in power. So to see this smirking spook Ecker LAUGHING at the idea of ’gooks’ being ’wired up’...well, I gained a new insight into the depths of the human mind that night.

"But the worst part was the fact that I could no longer have anything to do with Vicki. I know this decision seems low and foolish -- cutting off a friendship because I’m appalled at her choice of romantic leads. Honest, I wanted her to be happy -- I could sense, previously, that she was a lonely woman, and when she first told me about this fellow, I encouraged her to see him, despite her initial qualms. (Indeed, I might be said to have helped bring them together -- this was before I learned what she was, mind you...) But above all, I wanted Vicki to stay Vicki.

"Now I feel betrayed. Vicki and I had, after all, worked quite closely together -- and we were going after the spooks. For that sort of project, you need partners of like mind when it comes to matters political. Then she hops into bed with (for all intents and purposes) the CIA itself! (You know about Special Forces connections with the Company, the Nazis, Laotian drug smuggling, Jonestown, etc.) Suddenly, Vicki changed from... ARDIS attendee to an interested guest at the official ex-spook organization. Suddenly, she calls me a fanatic. (She also calls her boyfriend a fascist -- apparently, fascism isn’t fanaticism.)

"Because she presented such an unprecedented case of elasticity, I wondered if SHE was a spook. To tell the truth, for a week or three, I was certain of it. My disposition wasn’t helped when I learned she was talking behind my back to an abductee -- (CENSORED) -- with whom I’ve worked closely; Vicki told (CENSORED) that I was a KGB agent and should be avoided! Obviously, by this stage, the accusations and counter accusations reach a level of absurdity. At least MY accusations, however fueled by suspicion and hurt feelings, come weighted with some evidence, and are directed toward the accused. Vicki, by comparison, has constantly spread catty ’agent’ rumors, unconfirmed by any data, behind the backs of every major figure on the UFO scene. You included.

 

(As one can see, one of the major ways in which the alien-CIA controllers silence the opposition is to bring division and discord among the researchers who are investigating THEM - Branton)

"So tell me, now that you know all the sordid details -- what am I to think? Was she spying on me all along? Or should I chalk this whole incident up to a painful lesson in the vagaries of human relations? The whole matter is infinitely confusing, but I know one thing -- I lost a friend, and it stung..."
