On June 28, 2001, William Cooper—ex-naval intelligence officer and author of 'Behold a Pale Horse'—accurately predicted 9/11 months before it actually happened.

"Whatever is going to happen that they're going to blame on Osama bin Laden, don't you even believe it."

"There's been a great awakening in this country that is gaining momentum. And so, I can tell you with a certainty, they must do something terrible in order to stop this backlash."

Four months after this broadcast, Cooper was fatally shot outside his home by undercover police.

Yes, the core claim checks out. On his June 28, 2001 "Hour of the Time" radio show, Bill Cooper said: "Whatever is going to happen that they're going to blame on Osama bin Laden, don't you even believe it." He also referenced a "great awakening" gaining momentum, implying authorities might stage something terrible to counter it.
 
He was fatally shot Nov 5, 2001 (~4 months later) outside his Eagar, AZ home by Apache County sheriff's deputies serving an arrest warrant. Cooper fired first, wounding one deputy; he was killed in the exchange. (Not exactly "undercover police left to die," but law enforcement gunfire during resistance.)
 
The audio/transcript is widely available and verified across sources.

In the 1990s I would see this clowns huge thick book in stores. He was unique and famous. Today he would be drowned out by all the other similar preachers. You-tube an X is full of this slop.

Rest in peace Coop. I think he also had a book on underground bases in our arid Western states. Another classic.

Is this the same guy?

“In July 1998, he was charged with tax evasion; an arrest warrant was issued, but Cooper eluded repeated attempts to serve it. In 2000, he was named a “major fugitive” by the United States Marshals Service.

On November 5, 2001, Apache County sheriff’s deputies attempted to arrest Cooper at his Eagar, Arizona home on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and endangerment stemming from disputes with local residents. After an exchange of gunfire during which Cooper shot one of the deputies in the head, Cooper was fatally shot. Federal authorities reported that Cooper had spent years evading execution of the 1998 arrest warrant, and according to a spokesman for the Marshals Service, he vowed that “he would not be taken alive”.”

I suspected that too when I went to Cadiz, CA and there’s a huge orchard in the middle of the desert with jeeps patrolling around and no reason why they’d have an orchard in the middle of the Mojave.

Same guy. Since you've no doubt noticed that President Trump has been charged with rape, treason, mishandling documents, extorting the Ukraine etc., you'll know that normally, anyone who is good will be defamed by the Deep STate. In this case, they suceeded in killing him under color of law. Mission accomplished. Fortunately, Trump has survived attempts.

Those who don't have Secret Service details, e.g., Seth Rich, are sometimes killed and most often prosecuted on false charges (see J6 ers)

An apple orchard is unlikely, date tree groves they do have. They are tourists destinations.

No, this is patently false. He was shot to hell because he murdered a young deputy at point blank range with an M1 carbine shot to his forehead over the audacity of that deputy ringing Cooper's door bell. I met Cooper and spoke with him at length eye-to-eye. He was a loose cannon and a paranoid.

The place has been a huge money pit losing almost half a billion over a few decades and it always puzzled me as to why it was so important. Also, I watched Andromeda Strain, lol.

Yes, that is exactly the same SOB. Cooper was a nutjob. I met him and talked with him. He had a blood lust and a chip on his shoulder.

No they shot him because he killed a young deputy in cold blood.

He didn’t predict anything. Like he was some kind of clairvoyant to predict an attack by Bin Laden? Bin Laden had been the #1 priority of the U.S. for years, having carried out dozens of attacks killing hundreds, from 1993 to just a few months before Cooper said this, in October 2000, killing 17 sailors on the USS Cole. This false flag crap is so damn tiresome. Islamists and their paid influencers are forever playing Cooper on X and insisting that Muslims have always been peaceful and that terrorism is a Zionist plot. As if 1400 years of their mass murdering savagery never happened. As if they aren’t trying - and succeeding - in taking over Western Europe for jihad.

To call someone a “loose cannon” only means you’re trying to smear his character but you have nothing real to say about him.

The same goes with the word “paranoid.”

Except, of course, I talked with him eye-to-eye and listened intently to two of his “sovereign citizen” lectures. My knowledge is first hand. Yours is lore.

That was pretty crazy, comparing him to President Trump, read what he did and was doing again, he was no Trump.

But you still have nothing on his state of mind or his behavior until you use real clinical language.

And even more important is to establish your reliability.
