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.

I used to think you were one of my puppetmasters.

I knew of him, but never met him. Some of the high profile people we brought to our forum were Linda Moulton Howe, Ed Walters, Kevin Randall, Bill Cooper, and a few others. Bud Hopkins, Whitley Strieber, John Lear, and others were too expensive. Robert Lazar didn't want leave his home during that time, and Billy Meier wasn't going to fly and was also too expensive.

I wish I could remember the names of the ones we did manage to bring in.

I corresponded with General Jesse Marcel of Roswell fame; but, he was not willing to lecture. (He said it wasn't a weather balloon.)

The forum broke up somewhere around 1990.

Linda Moulton Howe is a careful researcher and keeps scrupulous records.

We wanted for you to think that.
Now we want other things from you.

Comply.

[Dartoid]

Just stop it. You are being an idiot

[GingisK]

My God, its great to have you back! ;-D

I’ve never been a part of the fringe world yet Fred Bell and I became good friends, drinking and partying buddies when he would come down to San Diego and come by and pick me up on the coast for bar hopping or a dinner with ladies, it was a strange meeting the night we met in LA and I guess we didn’t get much into his weird stuff after that, although I knew it from our first night we met and got drunk together, he would also bring free bottles of the expensive vitamins he made and sold until I told him that I didn’t want to take them since they were mega vitamins.

Good ole California of the past, when it was interesting.

They stopped talking about those trillions of dollars that were missing.

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

That is a prediction blaming Osama bin Laden for some attack, no date or type,

[Glad2bnuts]

100%

Have you ever experienced what it feels like to have a substantive comment rather than a personal attack?

Or what it feels like to even understand your own position on a given topic?

(Note: inability to articulate your thoughts using logic and with reference to principles of cause and effect demonstrates you don’t understand your own thoughts.)

Im not very familiar with his work. I am familiar with this forum and a great deal of the veracity of the information in any article should be determined by the whos and hows of the responses.

This may be the explanation for the mysterious Mojave orchards-

https://mojaveproject.org/dispatches-item/the-trouble-with-cadiz/

“Below Cadiz Inc.’s holdings lies the Fenner Basin, an ancient aquifer estimated to hold between seventeen million and thirty-four million acre-feet of water, “

“Over time, Cadiz Inc. amassed additional properties, including remnant checkerboarded parcels previously owned by the railroad. In addition, the entity has operated an agricultural “front” growing lemons, grapes and other seasonal crops on 9,600 acres at its Cadiz Valley property. Cadiz will likely continue with its modest farming enterprise until its ultimate goal, mining and exporting the water below them to distant coastal Southern California municipalities, is fully realized.”

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

Other than the “murdering a deputy sheriff in cold blood” part.

I’m always fascinated to hear conspiracy addicts explain away the glaringly obvious.

One important thing I learned from the UFO forum: Most of those people are really nutjobs. New Age people are incapable of rational thought.

Conspiracy addicts are rather badly damaged people. Apollo deniers lead the pack.
