1. How sad and depressing.
Looks like he lost all hope.

:(

2. Thanks, Mike. Keep the faith.
As a latecomer I can't begrudge your right to your burnout, but you said
the 9/11 issue was over when it was just beginning, and maybe you're now
giving up when we're just about to turn this thing around.

I know well what a bummer a burglary can be, particularly when it's personal.
It surprises me that an ex-cop doesn't allow for an electric screwdriver in
his reconstruction of the crime. Take a break, dude! Thanks for all you've
done, and thanks for what you're going to do. Rest up, stay safe, and we'll
see you when this is all over!

7. Wow.
The guy sounds like a cross between a delusional paranoid and a drama queen.

And I couldn't help but notice that in that long melodramatic story, the first of only two bolded paragraphs in the entire piece is:

FTW needs your help now. We need donations. We need sales. Very soon we will have a new DVD which will show you my last two public appearances ever in the United States. It will be my farewell message to all of you even as I say hello in a new form. After FTW’s current, considerable expenses and staff are paid, some of that badly-needed money will find its way to me in Venezuela where I sorely need it.

Gee, couldn't see that coming in the first 65 paragraphs, could you?

4. wow.. shocking read. Mike was hot on the trail of truth..
that was some real life nightmare story. I loved reading many of his stories FTW. Yes, seems the BFEE and others couldn't stand the heat so intimidation, blackmail, sex, threats and burglary. It's the stuff of major
motion pictures are made of.
I read earlier today here at DU of another 911 truth researcher being followed,beat up then arrested.

We must be closing in on the Sept.11 2001 Murderer's.. The secrecy surrounding 911 must be cracking.

WE GONNA GET YA GEORGE BUSH,CHENEY,RUMSFELD.. or you will again attack America and declare Martial Law in hopes of wielding absolute power to crush to truth..

5. What a joke
Conflates a petty burglary to Kristallnacht proportions, makes it sound like he had to get out because he was dangerous to the prevailing order, describes his exit from the US as if it was a secretive military operation and then ends with a nice pic of him in Venezuela. I don't want to sound cynical of course, but I just can't help it.

So Mike about:

those 4 students in Ohio, did you actually join the protests?
would you be able to name the former fiance who is a CIA agent - you're in Venezuela now, so this shouldn't be an issue.
would it be too much for me to suspect that FTW is about to file for bankruptcy?

Cheers

10. shit. And he was right about how it would end up
look at other journalist who have committed suicide, been killed, or in the case of al Jazeera, subject to air strikes for pissing off those in power.
