—And liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people, who have a right, from the frame of their nature, to knowledge, as their great Creator, who does nothing in vain, has given them understandings, and a desire to know; but besides this, they have a right, an indisputable, unalienable, indefeasible, divine right to that most dreaded and envied kind of knowledge, I mean, of the characters and conduct of their rulers."
In my last report, I
explained that my best friend and professional colleague of many
years, former FBI agent Geral Sosbee, had not been able to speak on
the phone since August of this year, because of the fact that the
assaults on him by directed-energy weapons had destroyed his hearing.
I had known of this
for quite some time, at least going back about 3 or 4 years, as his
hearing deteriorated bit by bit. Geral and I used to spend hours on
the phone and although the conversations were many times a source of
distress for both of us, given the subject matter, that distress was
outweighed by the comfort and solace of knowing that there was at
least one other person in the world who understands what you are
going through, that being targeted by the government for political
persecution.
We have both suffered
decades of this targeting, retaliation against whistleblowers. And
unless you have experienced it (I would not wish it on my worst
enemies, no matter how heinous their crimes), there is no way to
understand what it is like. The perps of these campaigns against
targeted individuals, which are brutal beyond description, have one
overriding agenda in mind:
To totally destroy the
Target's life. To ruin the Target, financially, to send him to the
depths of emotional despair; to destroy his personal/professional
reputation with smear campaigns, to sabotage his relationships, to
leave him broken, battered, homeless, destitute and alone in the
world. (More details to follow...)
I was pleasantly
surprised that one day after I posted my report I received a phone
call from Geral. Actually, the call was made by Geral's wife, who is
also a dear friend. She too has suffered greatly from the targeting
of her husband. She has no connection (and never has had) to the
government, nor to his professional endeavors. Do the perps care? No,
for she is considered mere “collateral damage” in the war against
Geral Sosbee.
They had called to
thank me for my report. In order for me to respond, I had to speak to
Geral's wife, for he could not hear me. We were only able to stay on
the phone for less than 5 minutes. Just hearing Geral's voice was
uplifting. But what he said left me in tears as I hung up the phone.
This was nothing new,
he'd said it many times before: That he could not fathom the depth
and breadth of the evil that has taken over our country. That the
people who would do such things, as terrorizing and torturing their
own citizens, destroying lives, killing people, it was something he
could not understand. How can anyone be so evil? How can they live
with themselves?
I've often heard
similar statements, especially from those so targeted. Of course, we
KNOW it is happening. We have experienced it firsthand. We have
documented it, we have collected as much evidence as we could. We
have reported it to various authorities. But it is still difficult,
on a deeper level, to comprehend the absolute moral bankruptcy of the
perps.
Geral filed a lawsuit,
quite a few years ago, all the way up to the Supreme Court. He worked
on this, while being harassed, persecuted and assaulted with
high-tech weaponry, while being poisoned and drugged. All to no
avail. His lawsuit was thrown out by the machinations of corrupt
attorneys and judges.
He reported the crimes
to members of Congress, to Senators, who are supposed to be his
representatives. Nobody would help him.
He reported the crimes
to the police. He was insulted, his sanity was impugned, he was
threatened by these public servants. But no help ever came.
Going back to his
years in the FBI (1971-1978), he reported the internal crimes through
proper channels to the Inspector, who happened to be FBI Chief Ted L.
Gunderson. His complaints were never even addressed, nor
acknowledged.
Ted Gunderson, the
same man who was planted on me in 1997, three years after I left CIA
operations and went public with my testimony regarding CIA black ops,
including (but not limited to) MK Ultra.
Ted Gunderson, the
COINTELPRO Kingpin, Hoover's right hand man, who after leaving the
FBI in 1979, continued his counterintelligence operations against
whistleblowers (CIA, FBI, NSA, Military, as well as
journalists.
Ted Gunderson, who
sold Stinger Missiles to Osama bin Laden (1979, while still
officially employed by the FBI.)
Ted Gunderson, who
married founder of the Church of Satan, Anton LaVey's ex-wife, Diana
Rively, in 1998.
Ted Gunderson, who
publicly denied having sold the missiles to bin Laden (aka Tim Osman,
CIA asset) after I and other investigators exposed it on radio
programs. We had the documents. Then later, when it was clear he
could not defend the lie, finally admitted it, accompanied by his
false claims that Barbara Hartwell is a “CIA disinfo agent”, that
I am a “government spook” working for the “shadow government”.
No, Ted, that was you, may you rest in peace and may God forgive you and have mercy on your soul.
As for the marriage to
Anton LaVey's ex-wife, he never did admit to that, even when I
produced evidence in the form of a letter sent to me by Ted (on FBI
stationery) in 1998. He and his entourage of stooges claimed (as
usual) that I am a liar, the most evil “CIA disinfo agent” who
ever lived.
...is the rule, but you are proof that he is wrong; the same applies to me and the assassins of the fbi who are trying to kill me in the only cowardly manner they know. My question for gun is why he does nothing to expose the crimes against Humanity that are currently on going; and further, with his vast experience as a fbi chief, why he has not confessed to the world of his many crimes against the American people.
ted gunderson, former fbi chief, verbally assaults a true American Hero, Barbara Hartwell, by the use of language that reveals gun's own warped character.
"Do the righteous people of the world a service and, like other slimy creatures, slither back into the hole from which you came.
Ted L Gunderson, FBI-SAC(Ret)"
Sosbee writes:
Such words as quoted above when directed against one of the true and great Defenders of Liberty (Barbara Hartwell) offend all sensitive persons who read them, but especially those of us who know and respect Barbara for her stand against government corruption. Indeed the 'righteous' as you call them reject the use of such descriptions above because no human being merits such a label.
However, gun is steeped in the use of labels, especially those that send good and innocent people to torture chambers, to prisons or to their deaths; gun is an expert by his own proclamation of his credentials (i.e.:SAC) in a) black operations, b) mind games, c) secret agent-provocateur dirty deeds worldwide.
No, gun, you are wrong. The world needs Barbara Hartwell more than you could possibly know/imagine; and as you have sold out to the evil forces of a corrupt government (the United States of America) in return for your petty benefits, you are the one who must someday atone for the atrocities you approved, directed, or condoned against men and women over the past half century.
Come clean, gun, about your knowledge regarding offenses and crimes against Humanity; help save the lives of targeted individuals; and renounce the fascist state that you presently support; then, maybe intelligent and informed people will listen to you.
You dare pretend to show a concern for the people of the United States when in fact you exploit the ignorance and fear of all who listen to you in order to further your own private interests and in order to perpetuate the destructive agenda of the cia and the fbi. The downfall of this country into a fascist state is in part your doing, gun, and you should not be proud of that, no matter how high an office you have attained.
Sosbee writes for the record on April 30, 2005:
gun indicates on his website that he was chief inspector for the fbi in 1973; in such capacity, gun had the responsibility to investigate Sosbee's reports of fbi crimes during that year. Not only did he fail to perform his duties as chief inspector, he continued thereafter to serve in high level positions in the fbi at a time when Sosbee was being harassed for reporting the criminal conduct of numerous fbi agents as set forth in www.sosbeevfbi.com
In early 1971, the FBI's domestic counterintelligence program (code named "COINTELPRO") was brought to light when a "Citizens Committee to Investigate the FBI" removed secret files from an FBI office in Media, PA and released them to the press. Agents began to resign from the Bureau and blow the whistle on covert operations. That same year, publication of the Pentagon Papers, the Pentagon's top-secret history of the Vietnam War, exposed years of systematic official lies about the war.
Mr. Bush made that clear in an interview broadcast on Sunday. “We’re fortunate to have men and women who work hard at the C.I.A. serving on our behalf,” he told CNN’s Candy Crowley. “These are patriots and whatever the report says, if it diminishes their contributions to our country, it is way off base."

The “patriots” and
“really good people” from CIA?
Can he be for real?
Good people do not engage in torture. Period.
I don't care WHAT they call it (“enhanced interrogation”).
I don't care WHY they do it.
I don't care if it is used on the baddest of the bad guys.
TORTURE IS WRONG. All wrong, all
the time, dead wrong.
I have spent a
tremendous amount of time researching the campaigns against
whistleblowers. I have read their testimonials, their articles and
reports online. I have watched their videos and TV interviews, and
listened to their radio broadcasts.
I had a friend who was
ex-CIA. I haven't heard from him since I last saw him when he visited
me at my home in Maine (2007). He wasn't a whistleblower, per se, as
he had not gone public using his name. (He had a young child to
protect and was in the cross-hairs of the Bush Crime Family, out of
Kennebunkport.) I had used the name “Paul” (not his name) in some
stories of him in my reports, with his permission.
He was another person
targeted for persecution and neutralization. I don't even know if he
is still among the living, as I was unable to contact him. (If you
are out there, Paul, please contact me by post.) I do know that he
was very ill when last I spoke to him, again, a result of the
assaults on his person by government perps, very similar to the assaults on Geral Sosbee.
Paul was introduced to
me by a mutual friend in 2005. He, like most of us, was living in
dire poverty, a result of the campaign against him. But he was a
tremendous help to me, donating his time to help me with computer
issues and sharing his expertise in other areas.
I remember when he
said to me, Barbara, I am sorry but I can't bear to read your
website. It is too distressing to me. We could talk on the phone, and
that was easier for him. Just as with Geral Sosbee, the conversations
were distressing, but also provided some comfort.
I bring this up
because I too find it difficult to read the testimony, or
watch/listen to the interviews of people who have been targeted for
persecution. I can only stand so much, because I know from my own
experience what these people have been through, or at least some of
it.
As for those who have
been falsely/wrongfully arrested, convicted and railroaded into
prison, that is a horror I can only imagine, but for which I have
spent many sleepless nights and shed many tears over these outrageous
and grievous wrongs.
The campaigns against
whistleblowers follow a very definitive and specific pattern, in most
cases, both those I have personally investigated/known and those I
have researched.
Then, it also hurts to
know that there is not much I can do, if anything, to help them. I
have no resources, no money to donate to their cause. I only have
this website (not high-traffic, not commercial) where I can express
my support for them and hope that others may do the same, especially
those who have the resources to offer material support.
If I don't know the
individual personally then I must in good conscience take great care
not to misrepresent them in any way, but only to provide quotes and
links to their websites, where the reader may learn about their
cases.
Unfortunately, I
myself have had my name and my case grossly exploited and
misrepresented many times, either by government minions/stooges, or
by amateur wannabes and publicity-seekers, ignorant and aggressive
persons who don't know what they are talking about. But they've done
a lot of damage, nonetheless.
I have compiled a list
of whistleblowers for this report, most of whom I do not know. But I
have read their articles, perused their websites, listened and
watched as they told their stories.
