BEHOLD A STALE HORSE
|
|
|
|
by I.M. FEDDUP
|
|
|
|
This document is being distributed in order to bring to light and expose
|
|
one of the biggest charlatans ever to appear in the UFO community. While
|
|
most individuals in the UFO community are quite intelligent and perceptive
|
|
there are some who, for unknown reasons, continue to cling to or at least
|
|
indulge in the mad ravings of certain individuals no matter how blatant
|
|
these individuals' lying, disinformation, and outright criminal fraud
|
|
becomes.
|
|
|
|
The charlatan in question here is one Milton William "Bill" Cooper. Bill
|
|
Cooper would undoubtedly be the hands-down winner of the bullshit and
|
|
golden shovel award, even over the likes of Phil Klass and George Bush.
|
|
|
|
It is difficult to determine where to begin this investigative report
|
|
due to the numerous areas of plagiarism, lies and unfounded speculation
|
|
that have Mr. Cooper to thank as their source of origin. Let us begin,
|
|
however, with his Los Angeles appearance at Hollywood High School in
|
|
November of 1989 which will paint the first stroke on our portrait of
|
|
the mental imbalance of this man and the general fantasy world in which
|
|
he resides.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Cooper was able to effectively promote his November 5th, 1989 lecture
|
|
by appearing on two radio talk shows in the Los Angeles area the week
|
|
prior to his event. In appearances on KFI-AM (The Tom Leykis Show) and
|
|
KIEV-AM (The Paul Wallach Show), Mr. Cooper spent much time plagiarizing
|
|
the work of others in the UFO and political fields, taking full credit
|
|
for the "revelations" he'd made. After pilfering others' information
|
|
and hard-earned investigative statistics, Mr. Cooper commonly weaves in
|
|
a few new observations or twists in order to leave his fingerprints on
|
|
the "revelation" and render the scenario just different enough to fool
|
|
the few audience members who might recognize the information from someone
|
|
else's research.
|
|
|
|
During these radio appearances, Mr. Cooper tantalized the audience like
|
|
a professional snake oil salesman by regaling them with the tale of his
|
|
treasured video which clearly showed the driver of JFK's limousine,
|
|
William Greer, turn around and deliver the fatal head shot to the
|
|
president.
|
|
|
|
As most of you probably know by now, Mr. Cooper's 5th-generation, black
|
|
& white video shown at Hollywood High is the poorest copy of the Zapruder
|
|
film ever to surface in a public venue. Anyone with any experience in
|
|
photo analysis, law enforcement, or basic military service (or even a
|
|
discriminating mind), would have instantly recognized that this copy was
|
|
definitely not one on which to base your decision one way or another.
|
|
As an interesting sidelight, the original owner of this film was Lars
|
|
Hanson who has stated several times that Mr. Cooper, without his
|
|
consent, had copied the film and was using it without his permission.
|
|
Interestingly, during his lecture, Mr. Cooper elected to turn down
|
|
Mr. Hanson's audio voice-over and gave him no credit for the film
|
|
leaving the audience to surmise that once again, "Scoop" Cooper had
|
|
gotten his hands on another top secret jewel from one of his endless
|
|
contacts "on the inside." Incidentally, at the time of Mr. Cooper's
|
|
November 5th presentation, Mr. Hanson had already discounted his prior
|
|
contention that the film demonstrated that Greer fired the final shot.
|
|
|
|
However, Mr. Cooper, seeking to add credibility to his personal espousals
|
|
and his grainy video treasure (no doubt with the thought of future video
|
|
sales in mind), stated that while he worked for the Office of Naval
|
|
Intelligence from 1971 - 1973, he saw Top Secret paperwork which detailed
|
|
the planning and carrying out of JFK's assassination. Mr. Cooper stated,
|
|
"..and that secret paperwork stated that William Greer, using an
|
|
electronically triggered, gas-propelled assassination weapon, turned and
|
|
fired the fatal shot to the president. "
|
|
|
|
At a later appearance at Beverly Hills High School, Mr. Cooper showed
|
|
another version of the Zapruder film which he had also plagiarized, this
|
|
version, plagiarized from Japan's Nippon Television, was still very grainy
|
|
despite the fact it was in color. After this and other Cooper appearances,
|
|
word began to gradually spread that he was making a lot of money and
|
|
defrauding a lot of people with his use and sale of his films. Mr. Hanson
|
|
even came forward to meet Mr. Cooper face to face on KFI radio (again
|
|
on The Tom Leykis Show) to publicly state that he (Hanson) and researcher
|
|
Bob Grodin had long since obtained a clear, colored version of the film.
|
|
He went on to offer his apologies but that, in reality, the object that
|
|
appears Greer has in his hands is actually the sun glinting off of the
|
|
car and a resulting reflection on Agent Kellerman's head.
|
|
|
|
As anyone in the intelligence community could attest, it is absolutely
|
|
ludicrous that anything like the details of an assassination plot of a
|
|
head of state, let alone a U.S. president, would be committed to a written
|
|
form, thereby leaving a paper trail. Mr. Cooper continues to refuse to
|
|
admit to his asinine and blatant lies regarding the "secret papers" he
|
|
claims to have seen between 1971 and 1973 which stated that Greer was
|
|
the main assassin.
|
|
|
|
Whereas many intelligent and well-informed people had listened to and
|
|
believed Mr. Cooper and his stories, as his tales began to unravel, they
|
|
sought out the truth on their own. Finally, last year, both Current Affair
|
|
and Hard Copy aired the original, uncut, colored, crystal-clear version
|
|
of the Zapruder film. Thus many individuals who had been deceived by
|
|
Mr. Cooper's dog and pony show were finally able to see how badly they
|
|
had been taken in.
|
|
|
|
In this extremely clear copy shown on national television, it is clear
|
|
that Mr. Greer (JFK's limousine driver) broke every security precaution
|
|
and procedure by slowing the limousine to a crawl at the time of the
|
|
assassination. This move by Greer most likely was a deliberate act as
|
|
his personal assignment in the conspiracy to kill the president by the
|
|
U.S. Military Industrial Complex and others. However, IT IS CLEAR that
|
|
Mr. Greer's hands never leave the steering wheel. He turns to look back
|
|
at the President twice. On the second turn, Agent Kellerman leans forward
|
|
into the picture and and at the same moment, Greer is turned looking back
|
|
at Kennedy as sunlight shines on Agent Kellerman's forehead and top of
|
|
his head. As men's hair cream was in style at that time, it is obvious
|
|
Kellerman's hair is "slick and wet looking" thus creating the bright
|
|
reflection off the top of his head which Mr. Cooper claims is a weapon.
|
|
|
|
<< Illustration omitted >>
|
|
|
|
On many occasions, some of Mr. Cooper's friends and associates have
|
|
attempted to point out the true nature of this "weapon" to him, only to
|
|
be met with outright hostility and barrages of insults and accusations
|
|
that they had been fooled by or were working for the CIA. As many in
|
|
the community know, being labeled an agent of the CIA by Mr. Cooper in
|
|
his paranoid musings is considered a badge of honor of sorts as obviously
|
|
the individual has struck a nerve in Mr. Cooper -- either threatening
|
|
to expose his lack of veracity, or worse, to enlighten the misled
|
|
individuals who continue to contribute money to his "cause" by attending
|
|
his lectures, purchasing his books, tapes, etc.
|
|
|
|
Also at his November 5, 1989 appearance, Mr. Cooper made the ridiculous
|
|
claim that a recent launching of a satellite which had a propulsion and
|
|
fuel base of plutonium, was in actuality an Ultra Secret mission and part
|
|
of the treaty our government made with the "evil' Grays (aliens). He
|
|
stated that the object was only disguised as a satellite but was in
|
|
actuality a device which, after it entered Jupiter's atmosphere, would
|
|
utilize the on-board plutonium to detonate and thereby ignite the gases
|
|
of Jupiter. This would create a second star along with the Sun. This
|
|
was necessary, Cooper stated, because the Grays come from a binary star
|
|
system and through agreements with the U.S. Government, these gray boogey
|
|
men were going to get a new binary system to travel to or utilize. As
|
|
usual, Mr. Cooper went on to state that he had seen this in Top Secret
|
|
paperwork.
|
|
|
|
As if this scenario weren't already hysterical enough, Mr. Cooper went
|
|
on to state that the paperwork said a name had already been selected for
|
|
the "new star" . The name would be "Lucifer" . Anyone with a fourth grade
|
|
education in science would immediately realize they were dealing with
|
|
either a typical CIA attempt to insert another kook into the UFO community
|
|
or with some kind of illogical, mentally deranged, far-right Christian
|
|
striving to manipulate the public into subscribing to his fundamentalist
|
|
philosophy -- the kind who give good christians a bad name.
|
|
|
|
As evidenced, there were as many things that were not on the level that
|
|
evening of November 5. Attendees should have been wary when they
|
|
discovered Mr. Cooper's first fraudulent manipulation upon arrival at
|
|
the event. When Mr. Cooper appeared on the two L.A. radio talk shows
|
|
to promote his upcoming event at Hollywood High, he twice stated on KFI
|
|
and once on KIEV that anyone interested in seeing his Kennedy assassination
|
|
film (which would prove that Kennedy's limousine driver turned and
|
|
delivered the fatal shot) was invited to attend the November 5 program
|
|
FOR FREE. Mr. Cooper stated his belief that everyone had the right as
|
|
an American to see the truth about who killed their president. Thus,
|
|
many of the attendees that evening were shocked to find out that a
|
|
mandatory $15.00 "donation" was due and payable at the door before entry
|
|
was granted to the event.
|
|
|
|
This is not the only time Mr. Cooper's true colors were displayed. Fans
|
|
and regular listeners to the old Billy Goodman Happening radio program
|
|
out of KVEG-AM Las Vegas may remember the evening when Mr. Cooper was
|
|
a guest (as he was on many occasions) and he took an on-air phone call
|
|
from a 12-year-old fan of Mr. Goodman's show by the name of Brian Enmann
|
|
(sp.). This boy, as was clear to Mr. Cooper since they had previously
|
|
spoken on the air on several occasions, was a frequent caller to the show
|
|
and was the founder and president of The Billy Goodman Happening youth
|
|
group .
|
|
|
|
The young man called to say that on two occasions he had sent Mr. Cooper
|
|
money for the Kennedy tape and some paperwork he was offering but he was
|
|
concerned because he had not received anything back. The boy went on
|
|
to politely inquire if Mr. Cooper had received either of his requests
|
|
or what the delay might be.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Cooper immediately, as usual, went on the attack and in a raised voice
|
|
questioned the fact that this young man had ever even sent him any order.
|
|
When the boy assured him that, yes, he had paid for the package twice,
|
|
Mr. Cooper, coming from an obviously paranoid and guilt-ridden personality,
|
|
then asked young Brian, "Did you send the fee in cash?" The young man
|
|
answered honestly, "Yes, I did." Much to the listener's horror, Mr.
|
|
Cooper's guilt-ridden reply was, "Well, anyone with half a brain knows
|
|
never to send cash in the mail." Why is that, Mr. Cooper? Could it be
|
|
you asked the question so knowingly beeause the modus operandi of crooks
|
|
and charlatans like yourself is to open the envelopes, pocket the cash
|
|
and then deny it was ever received? Then, of course, the standard defense
|
|
is to question, "Did you send cash?"
|
|
|
|
What a demonstration of Mr. Cooper's great compassion for a young man
|
|
who until that moment had been one of his greatest supporters. Mr. Cooper
|
|
ended the conversation by telling young Brian that it was just too bad,
|
|
but he would suggest that he send his payment in again, this time with
|
|
his parent's check or a money order. Out of all the money he was already
|
|
making on his plagiarized tapes, not to mention charging $15.00 a head
|
|
all across the country to view his "exclusive" tape, it was appalling
|
|
that Mr. Cooper would treat a supporter in this manner, let alone a
|
|
youngster.
|
|
|
|
To demonstrate just how delusional and dishonest Mr. Cooper is, let us
|
|
now bring to light two events of which anyone who closely follows the
|
|
UFO community will be aware. Let's start with the first appearance of
|
|
Mr. Robert Lazar on The Billy Goodman Happening show. After an incredible
|
|
interview with Mr. Lazar, the last caller on the show (as was frequently
|
|
the case) was Mr. Cooper. Mr. Cooper had a habit of calling in at the
|
|
end of the show in order to monopolize the last 15 or 20 minutes of the
|
|
program. Mr. Goodman had complained about this habit of Mr. Cooper's
|
|
to people who were close to the show.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Cooper called to congratulate Mr. Lazar for coming forward and offer
|
|
complete support for Mr. Lazar and his efforts. He stated that he had
|
|
checked out Mr. Lazar through sources of his in the intelligence community
|
|
and they assured him that Lazar was indeed who he said he was and had
|
|
worked where he said he worked. Mr. Cooper then declared that he would
|
|
vouch for Mr. Lazar's story being unequivocally 100 percent true.
|
|
|
|
Lazar then stated in his own words "Gee, Bill, I didn't know you did
|
|
that." Mr. Cooper replied, "Well, of course we did. We couldn't just
|
|
believe anyone who came out of the closet like that with your kind of
|
|
information." As they ended the phone interview, Mr. Cooper again
|
|
reiterated his support for Bob Lazar and stated that he knew everything
|
|
that Lazar had said was true.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, after Mr. Cooper's initial praises of him, Lazar soon became
|
|
an additional target for Mr. Cooper's wild machinations. In one of his
|
|
newsletters, Mr. Cooper gave false claims regarding Lazar's involvement
|
|
in running a drug lab for the manufacture of methamphetamines. This claim
|
|
was a complete fabrication. To Mr. Lazar's credit, he did not bother
|
|
to elevate Mr. Cooper's claim to his level by even attempting to address
|
|
what could only be described as an insane accusation, regardless of
|
|
anyone's view as to the veracity of Lazar's story of his involvement at
|
|
the Top Secret facility in the Nevada desert.
|
|
|
|
It was during Lazar's second appearance on the Goodman Happening that
|
|
his friend, Gene Huff, called through to state that there were obvious
|
|
problems between Lazar and Mr. Cooper and some of their information seemed
|
|
to contradict each other's. As listeners of the show will remember, Mr.
|
|
Cooper flew into a tirade, stating that he demanded Bob Lazar appear on
|
|
the radio show to contradict what Gene Huff had said because there was
|
|
absolutely no disagreement between them or their respective information.
|
|
|
|
At this point, Mr. Huff remarked that a scientist working at the Groom
|
|
Lake site would obviously have a virtually infinite amount of personal
|
|
knowledge about what was going on there as opposed to a former naval petty
|
|
officer who had only worked with Naval Intelligence for a short time as
|
|
a briefing team member; and at that, as only an audio-visual department
|
|
aid for the briefing team.
|
|
|
|
At this, Mr. Cooper became even more irate and denied knowing where Huff
|
|
was coming from. As he is known to do, Mr. Cooper immediately began to
|
|
accuse Huff and Billy Goodman of setting him up. He then repeated his
|
|
demand that Lazar appear on Billy Goodman's show to meet him one on one
|
|
so they could "go at it."
|
|
|
|
Many of you remember what occurred on the next evening of Billy's
|
|
show. Mr. Lazar was the first caller to get through to Mr. Goodman.
|
|
Lazar stated that he had not put Gene up to the call the night before,
|
|
and was in fact asleep and thus not even aware that Gene was calling.
|
|
Mr. Lazar tried to cut back on some of the criticisms Mr. Huff had made
|
|
the previous night. It was known, however, to many of those behind the
|
|
scenes of Mr. Goodman's show as well as those in the inner circle of
|
|
UFO researchers, that many appeals had been made the previous night and
|
|
that morning to Huff, Lazar and Cooper to please not air this type of
|
|
dirty laundry as it gives everyone in the UFO community a bad name.
|
|
|
|
In actuality, what Mr. Huff had stated the night before was indeed true
|
|
as Mr. Lazar had several problems with some of Mr. Cooper's facts, as
|
|
well he should have. Nevertheless, for the sake of the UFO community
|
|
Mr. Lazar capitulated and apologized to Mr. Cooper on the air, stating
|
|
that he hoped everyone would be able to get along so the investigation
|
|
on this issue could proceed, because the last thing this community needed
|
|
was to be involved in yet another dispute between researchers. So, again,
|
|
it was Lazar who made the effort to patch up this delicate situation and
|
|
Mr. Cooper who approached it with a rabid, foaming-at-the mouth attitude.
|
|
|
|
The second area in which Mr. Cooper has frequently displayed his awesome
|
|
powers of inconsistency is in regard to his Top Secret "Bible". Some
|
|
of the UFO community will note that when Mr. Cooper first appeared in
|
|
public with his revelations, he produced a paper consisting of five papers
|
|
concerning information of a Top Secret nature that he had seen while
|
|
working in his division of Naval Intelligence between 1971 to 1973. In
|
|
this paperwork, Mr. Cooper stated that he was privy to information on
|
|
a variety of issues.
|
|
|
|
Although the paperwork consisted of a scant five pages at Mr. Cooper's
|
|
"coming out party", contrary to Mr. Cooper's repeated statements he issues
|
|
each time he produces a new addendum to the file that IT WAS THE END -
|
|
he had finally finished it, the document is now in excess of 100 pages,
|
|
and no doubt this figure will increase even after this paper is produced.
|
|
Of course, many of Cooper's devotees have willingly paid for each addendum
|
|
in the mistaken belief that they had the whole truth, and nothing but
|
|
the truth.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Cooper also stated for the record on many occasions, that this
|
|
paperwork that he had originally seen was smuggled out of Top Secret files
|
|
in his lunchbox, a statement he reiterated in his book 'Behold a Pale Horse.'
|
|
If this is true, no matter what your feeling or what your view concerning
|
|
an individual interested in this subject, Mr. Cooper broke the law and
|
|
Mr. Cooper should be responsible for espionage if these Top Secret papers
|
|
were indeed stolen. Also, if these papers were truly in his possession
|
|
after smuggling them out, why hasn't he copied them and distributed them
|
|
to others? None of the paperwork that Mr. Cooper extracts from his Top
|
|
Secret treasure chest is new as it has been revealed before and is almost
|
|
always the property of other researchers.
|
|
|
|
Another item of interest is regarding Mr. Cooper's prosthesis. During
|
|
his Hollywood High School seminar and other presentations, he has stated
|
|
that he lost his leg when two government aaents in a large black car ran
|
|
him off a cliff while he was riding his motorcycle. He stated that due
|
|
to blood loss and the extent of damage to his leg, it had to be amputated.
|
|
In an attempt to verify any of the claims made by Mr. Cooper during his
|
|
Hollywood High seminar, an investigation was conducted by private
|
|
investigators which encompassed looking into the accident itself and how
|
|
Mr. Cooper lost his leg. It is interesting to note that in the report
|
|
made at the hospital regarding his accident, as well as in subsequent
|
|
reports made by law enforcement personnel, in spite of the fact Mr. Cooper
|
|
made a brief mention of his big black car scenario, the law enforcement
|
|
officers made it clear that Mr. Cooper reeked of alcohol and it was obvious
|
|
that the story was fabricated by Mr. Cooper to protect himself.
|
|
|
|
In actuality, their reports state that Mr. Cooper had been involved in
|
|
an accident that was self-inflicted due to his being in what obviously
|
|
had to be a very drunken state the previous night in order for him to
|
|
still be smelling of alcohol the following day.
|
|
|
|
However, by Mr. Cooper s own admission, and again in contradiction of
|
|
his prior and subsequent statements, Mr. Cooper would have everyone believe
|
|
that this running off the road was done by government agents in retribution
|
|
for some infraction he committed by going forward to the public with his
|
|
information. The interesting thing here is that Mr. Cooper, on many occasions,
|
|
including on The Billy Goodman Happening, has stated emphatically that the
|
|
government *does not* practice revenge. Which is it, Mr. Cooper?
|
|
|
|
Another interesting connection with alcohol and blind accusations being
|
|
flung out on the airwaves, was Mr. Cooper's attack on Capt. Bill English
|
|
on the Billy Goodman Happening, resulting in a legal dispute over
|
|
slanderous comments made about English by Mr. Cooper. Mr. Cooper again
|
|
demonstrated his lack of class by making wild accusations about English,
|
|
vhom he had previously supported. It is interesting to note that Mr.
|
|
Cooper attempted to portray Capt. English as a desperate alcoholic and
|
|
thus one who should be discredited and disbelieved.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Cooper's ploy of attacking others' credibility by accusing them of
|
|
alcoholism is ironic because Mr. Cooper himself is a long-time sufferer
|
|
of the same disease. This affliction is undoubtedly at least partially
|
|
responsible for his delusions of grandeur. Many of those who are familiar
|
|
with Mr. Cooper or have heard him speak, know that he generally will arrive
|
|
at the lecture or seminar reeking obviously of hard alcohol. Many have
|
|
noted that during the intermission or after lectures, the smell of alcohol
|
|
is present in the air up to six feet away from Mr. Cooper at any one time.
|
|
the most recent demonstrations of this in Southern California occurred
|
|
during his presentation at the Los Angeles UFOrum meeting last year and
|
|
again this year at a presentation in San Diego. Also during this San
|
|
Diego meeting, Mr. Cooper, in an inebriated state, started a brawl between
|
|
himself and another UFO researcher by publicly taking a swing at him.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, he has left many drunken threats and paranoid ramblings
|
|
on assorted answering machines of others in the UFO community. It is
|
|
also a fact that he has been the subject of several law enforcement
|
|
investigations concerning complaints of domestic violence against his
|
|
wife, both while he was a former resident of California and now several
|
|
times in Arizona where he currently resides.
|
|
|
|
The accusations and attacks by Mr. Cooper on all who dare to disagree
|
|
with him spew forth from him in a seemingly never-ending stream. As was
|
|
so clearly noted by reporter George Knapp of KLAS-TV in Las Vegas in his
|
|
program 'UFO's: The Best Evidence', these individuals are immediately labeled
|
|
by Mr. Cooper as frauds, phonies and/or members of the Central Intelligence
|
|
Agency or the government complex desiring to discredit him. John Lear,
|
|
Don Ecker, Vicki Cooper, Bob Lazar, Gene Huff, Budd Hopkins, Stanton
|
|
Friedman, Bill Moore, Jaime Shandera, George Knapp, Craig Hewlett, Linda
|
|
Moulton Howe, Tony Pelham, Bruce MacCabee and a multitude of others (with
|
|
the list growing daily), have all been labeled by Mr. Cooper as frauds
|
|
and agents of the CIA.
|
|
|
|
The incredible thing is that some of these individuals Mr. Cooper labels
|
|
as intelligence agents, were some of his biggest supporters in the
|
|
beginning. This is especially true of Mr. Lear, who was instrumental
|
|
in bringing Mr. Cooper out and introducing him to the UFO community.
|
|
|
|
One story you may be familiar with is when Mr. Cooper, as usual, made
|
|
an ass of himself in an interview discussing the subject of O.H. Krill .
|
|
The origin of the O.H. Krill document is well known in the UFO community
|
|
It was originally put together by UFO researcher John Grace who heads
|
|
the Nevada Aerial Research Organization. Grace, as well as John Lear,
|
|
have stated that they selected the title as an inside joke.
|
|
|
|
One evening during a television interview of Mr. Cooper, Lear overhead
|
|
Mr. Cooper use the O.H Krill name and mention the fact that he had first
|
|
seen this document while working for the Office of Naval Intelligence
|
|
in the early 1970's. As Mr. Lear has related, he immediately pulled Mr.
|
|
Cooper aside and quietly told him, "Bill, O.H. Krill is a joke! John Grace
|
|
and I used Krill from Bob Emenegger's special 'UFO's: It Has Begun' because
|
|
of a woman who allegedly channeled an entity named CRYLLL. Grace just
|
|
pulled the O.H. out of thin air!" Mr. Cooper instantly unleashed his
|
|
hostile self and in his usual denial of reality, replied that Lear was
|
|
mistaken, insisting that he had seen it in 1972 while working for Naval
|
|
Intelligence.
|
|
|
|
Although Mr. Cooper tries to portray his job for Naval Intelligence as
|
|
something quite illustrious, in reality his duties consisted of nothing
|
|
more than setting up audio-visual equipment and passing out paperwork
|
|
to the Pacific Fleet briefing teams.
|
|
|
|
Another of Mr. Cooper's inconsistencies is that he is continuously publicly
|
|
declaring his full support of individuals and their information after
|
|
he reveals that his sources have given them and their information a full
|
|
clearance after a thorough "background check". Inevitably, Mr. Cooper
|
|
later turns on these individuals and declares them a fraud and/or an
|
|
intelligence agent after they have had some disagreement with him or he
|
|
with them regarding some particular area of their research. Of particular
|
|
interest is the fact that Mr. Cooper's claimed intelligence contacts are
|
|
obviously as lacking in credibility as he is since their "thorough
|
|
background checks" inevitably prove wrong. This clearly illustrates that
|
|
Mr. Cooper's connections to the intelligence exist in his mind only.
|
|
|
|
In concluding this point, when one of the authors had a recent dinner
|
|
with a professional investigative journalist a serious, yet somewhat
|
|
humorous observation was made. When the subject came up of one of Mr.
|
|
Cooper's drunken acts at a recent UFO event, the author stated to the
|
|
journalist, "You know, you're about the only person I know who is yet
|
|
to be labeled a fraud, phony or agent of the secret government by Bill
|
|
Cooper." To which the journalist replied, "Yes, but the day that Mr.
|
|
Cooper shines his spotlight of accusations of being a fraud or government
|
|
agent on me is the day I will feel satisfied that I ve reached the level
|
|
of respect and dignity of all the others on his "list" . *Then* I'll know
|
|
I've _really_ made it big."
|
|
|
|
This treatise could go on to fill a book but it is the purpose of the
|
|
authors to expose this man for what he is, or shall we say, WHAT HE IS
|
|
NOT. Mr. Cooper is most definitely not any kind of serious researcher
|
|
or someone truly involved with or having contacts in the intelligence
|
|
community as he would have everyone believe. A few Top Secret papers
|
|
supposedly smuggled out in a lunchbox and a few stolen and altered items
|
|
of others' research even after the ladling on of a gravy of incredible
|
|
embellishments, do not a UFO or government-coverup researcher make.
|
|
|
|
In summation, Mr. Cooper's current status is persona non grata in the
|
|
UFO community. His audiences these days can best be placed into two
|
|
categories. The first consists of those who are well-meaning, but
|
|
unfortunately innocent and therefore gullible individuals who are newly
|
|
interested in this field. The second group consists of those individuals
|
|
who either know or are basically familiar with the Bill Cooper story and
|
|
are aware of his reputation as a violent, fragile personality, but for
|
|
their own reasons continue to attend his lectures to hear yet another
|
|
fabricated chapter be added to his oft-times "complete" life story.
|
|
|
|
His attraction can be compared to that of a Circus Freak Show. One never
|
|
knows what to expect to exit from his mouth, whether it's a 180 degree turn
|
|
on a subject from a previous lecture (witness his revelation that the
|
|
Roswell crash was not an extra-terrestrial craft because the
|
|
"hieroglyphics" found on the crossbeams were actually Japanese writing),
|
|
or some brand new jewel that he somehow "forgot" to mention from his long
|
|
and distinguished career as "AV Boy" for a Naval Briefing Team.
|
|
|
|
In conclusion, if anyone in the UFO community best demonstrates the
|
|
qualifications for a person involved in spreading disinformation, it is
|
|
Mr. Cooper. The sad thing is that it's not even disinformation of a
|
|
government agent, just the ramblings of a pathetic, disillusioned, paranoid
|
|
alcoholic. As investigative reporter George Knapp stated in a letter
|
|
to Michael Corbin (director of ParaNet), "Bill Cooper wouldn't know the
|
|
truth if it jumped up and bit him in the ass..." This pathological liar
|
|
only serves to hurt the UFO issue as a whole as Mr. Cooper is the perfect
|
|
poster boy for those skeptics who view the field as ripe with charlatans
|
|
and crackpots.
|
|
|
|
We will end this paper on what we regard as perhaps the most intriquing
|
|
of items on Mr. Cooper. During a very recent talk-show interview in the
|
|
state in which he now resides (Arizona), Mr. Cooper stated the following
|
|
(unedited):
|
|
|
|
Cooper:
|
|
|
|
"Number 1: People aren't capable of performing the very basic thought
|
|
processes that are necessary to bring that about. Number 2: They
|
|
don't want to know what the true facts are because then that makes
|
|
them responsible to do something about it and they don't want to
|
|
be responsible. And Number 3: As long as they have a chicken in
|
|
the pot and T.V. in their living room they're not going to give a
|
|
damn about *anything* .
|
|
|
|
So, really what I've wrestled with the most in the past year is
|
|
whether or not to join the other side, to tell you quite frankly,
|
|
because I don't want to be one of the cattle being led to slaughter.
|
|
Somebody's going to be led to slaughter and if they're going to do
|
|
it willingly and stupidly, then I want to be one of the ones with
|
|
the cattle prod, you know? I have to say that and I struggle with
|
|
it all the time and so far haven't done it, but if it turns out that
|
|
the common man is really that stupid on a day-to-day basis, then
|
|
it means that those who are manipulating the world and controlling
|
|
the world are absolutely right and somebody has to herd these people
|
|
and take care of them or they'll destroy the world."
|
|
|
|
Interviewer:
|
|
|
|
"Well, one question that comes to mind right here for me is..the
|
|
other side, on the inside know what you're talking about, but do you or
|
|
have you had opportunities to literally do anything for the other
|
|
side -- work for the other side or whatever or have you had offers,
|
|
uh, as being an asset in any way, or you may not even say that if
|
|
it had occurred."
|
|
|
|
C. : "No, no, if that were the case I would be the first one to say it.
|
|
When I was working for the Office of Naval Intelligence, of course
|
|
I was working for the other side. ALL the intelligence organizations
|
|
are working for the other side to bring about a One World government.
|
|
That started on the day that Truman signed the U.N. Treaty and the
|
|
U.N. Participation Act and that's what the whole National Security
|
|
Act -- that's what it was created for, to bring about One World
|
|
government in secret and that's why they'll -"
|
|
|
|
I. : "It looks like we're heading that way right now anyway."
|
|
|
|
C. : "We certainly are. No, no one's ever offered, uh, to give me any
|
|
money or to, uh, for me to do anything for them, or -
|
|
|
|
I. : "Bring this man in out of the cold, the old scenario."
|
|
|
|
C. : "Uh, no, but I'd be willing to sit down and talk with them about
|
|
it." (Laughs).
|
|
|
|
I. : "I'm sure you would."
|
|
|
|
C. : "I certainly would.'
|
|
|
|
In parting, some may wonder why Mr. Cooper has not been approached by
|
|
the other side, as he obviously would _love_ to join them. Mr. Cooper and
|
|
readers of this expose can solve this puzzle by asking themselves, if
|
|
an individual is doing any number or even one of the types of things Mr.
|
|
Cooper has done why in the world would the other side ask an idiot like
|
|
that to join its ranks? This is especially a ridiculous consideration
|
|
when Mr. Cooper is already doing so well at making any of our side who
|
|
still attend his lectures, call his 900 number, or subscribe to his
|
|
newsletter look like complete fools by the fact they are still giving
|
|
this lunatic their hard-earned money.
|
|
|
|
SHAME ON YOU Mr. Cooper for wishing you could wield the cattle prod on
|
|
the other side someday, but please be expedient in doing so. Then it
|
|
will be crystal clear to your few remaining devotees which side you are
|
|
really on. And then when THINGS do come down we'll have a great target
|
|
to first SET OUR SIGHTS ON! (If you know what we mean!)
