FTW INTERVIEW: DELMART “MIKE” VREELAND
What the CIA Doesn’t Want You to Know
by Michael C. Ruppert
[Ed. Note: Just prior to the publication of this article the FTW web site was hacked
for the second time in a month. This hacking --
accomplished via sophisticated methods -- has been apparently intended to prevent us
from publishing the following interview. As a
temporary emergency measure ONLY please direct emergency e-mail correspondence to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] FTW will be back up
and running in an even more secure manner in the near future.-- MCR]
April 4, 2002, 1:00 PM PST (FTW) -- If all of its dark alleys were explored, the case
of Delmart Edward Joseph “Mike” Vreeland is one which is
worthy of a book that would rival “War and Peace.” It is a case that has sparked
zealous attacks on FTW and me personally, and one which
has seriously disturbed many officials in Washington. These attacks are an indication
of the threat Vreeland poses to the credibility of the
U.S. government. Only one question of any relevance exists. How was this man able to
write details that described the events of Sept. 11
while locked in a jail cell, more than a month before the attacks occurred?
It matters little to a housewife in Kansas if Mike Vreeland has a very confusing
criminal arrest record -- some of it very contradictory and
apparently fabricated -- for a variety of petty criminal offenses including fraud. But
it may be a matter of the gravest importance for the same
housewife if this man knew accurate information about the attacks, tried to warn both
the U.S. and Canadian governments about them, and
was ignored. If a crazy man runs up to you on the street and says that a house is on
fire with children trapped inside, and you smell smoke,
who is the crazy one if you decide not to investigate?
The U.S. Navy says that Vreeland, arrested in Canada on Dec. 4, 2000 and currently
fighting a U.S. extradition warrant, was discharged for
unsatisfactory performance after only four months of service in 1986. But a growing
pile of evidence, much of it filed in court records and
undisputed by Canadian or U.S. authorities, establishes clearly that Vreeland was
exactly what he says he was -- a spy.
In three previous stories, FTW has described how his military records, acknowledged to
be in excess of 1,200 pages, have been tampered
with. We have described how, in open court on a speakerphone, his lawyers obtained
direct confirmation from the Pentagon that he was a
Navy officer. We have also reported that, as of March 14, all Canadian charges against
Vreeland were dismissed. He was released on bail and
also granted temporary refugee status by the Canadian government until his battle to
beat the U.S. extradition request is settled.
Something that Canadian authorities have never disputed is that Vreeland wrote his
ominous and hastily scribbled warning a full month
before the attacks, and that the warning was sealed away by his keepers, beyond his
reach, until Sept. 14, three days after the attacks.
If he loses his extradition fight, both Vreeland and his attorneys believe that his
assassination will occur within days of his return to U.S.
soil.
Mike Vreeland is not a saint. Covert operatives are not made from such material, and
governments do not recruit or screen candidates for
saintly qualities. By his own admission in Canadian court documents and in several
conversations with FTW, Vreeland says he has done bad
things. He has been on probation for petty offenses, and he has behaved the way covert
operatives behave in the real world -- not in
Hollywood.
I have been studying, interacting with, and talking to covert operatives for more than
25 years. It is for that reason that I avoid some of the
questions being raised by dilettantes and neophyte journalists who take all of the
threads of Vreeland’s stories and run with them into a
wilderness from which no professional journalist could credibly emerge. Yes, I have
listened to him talk about so-called “red mercury,”
baseball-sized atom bombs, and Star Wars weapons systems. Yes, I have heard him talk
about a great many things, and I believe that what
he told me was truthful according to his knowledge of events and the documents he
brought back from Moscow in December 2000.
Even by his own statements, Vreeland, now 35, was a relatively low ranking officer and
an intelligence field operative. Never in the history
of covert operations has any government entrusted field operatives with total
strategic knowledge because the knowledge held by those
who make the plans is compartmentalized and locked away. Perhaps 80 percent of all
intelligence work is disinformation, and governments
know that their field operatives risk capture, interrogation and torture. Quite often
field operatives are themselves fed disinformation so
that if they talk, they will still spread lies that serve a larger strategic purpose.
Quite often they carry documents that are deliberately
inaccurate and their capture is engineered to give those documents credibility.
To the U.S. government, Vreeland is totally expendable. And those who run with every
piece of information he has disclosed will
themselves be proven fools in a fool’s game.
But one question remains. And it is a question that now stands vindicated by time and
events. He knew something chillingly accurate about
the 9-11 attacks before they happened. And if he knew something, based upon documents
given to him by Russian officials indicating U.S.
knowledge, and if the U.S. government went to great lengths to discredit him, rather
than bring him in from the cold -- then there is real
meat on the plate for journalists, the American government, and all of mankind.
I have asked him 35 questions, and now you can read Mike Vreeland’s answers as he
speaks for himself. The first 32 questions were
jointly submitted to both Vreeland and his attorney, Paul Slansky, for review. The
remaining three questions were asked after the most
recent hacking of FTW’s website, which we believe was perpetrated by the CIA. This
made the publication of this story an emergency and
also made a statement about the survival of a free press in America:
1. What part of the U.S. government did you work for? Was it the CIA?
I worked for U.S. Naval intelligence. What the CIA directs us to do is their
business, so we have no way of knowing whether we’re
working for them or not.
2. Was your assignment primarily connected to terrorism/oil?
Yes, on both issues, in part.
3. Why were you in Moscow and Russia in the latter part of 2000?
I was sent there by the U.S. government and the ONI [Office of Naval Intelligence]. I
got my orders between Sept. 4 and Sept. 7, 2000.
Marc Bastien departed for Russia on Sept. 7, 2000. I had orders to meet him. Bastien
was going to work at the Canadian embassy regarding
diagrams and blueprints of a weapons defense system. The U.S. government had a direct
influence on his mission. The name of the
defense system is SSST [Stealth Satellite System Terminator]. There are five different
individual and unique defensive and strike
capabilities of the system. The only portion that I have publicly spoken on is one
frame regarding actual current orbiting satellites, which are
not at this time owned by the US government. On advice of counsel I cannot discuss the
other components.
This one component is a satellite system. Within the confines of the system there are
multiple, deployable space/orbital EMP
[Electromagnetic Pulse] missiles that are not aimed at the ground. They are targeted
at everyone else’s satellites. These would kill
worldwide communications. The satellites of some countries that are shielded with
titanium are protected from these weapons. The
protected countries are Russia and China, but U.S. satellites are vulnerable and Putin
has told Bush that the U.S. missile defense system
doesn’t work, and that Bush knows it.
The reason why I went to Russia was because I needed to meet with Bastien and another
individual from the Russian Ministry of Defense
named Oleg. The purpose was to get the Canadian diplomat who had made contact with
Oleg to get the book of designs out of the
ministry’s R&D. That was done. We copied the entire book. Then we took certain
documents, and we changed serious portions of the
defense design so the program wouldn’t work. They know this now.
Additionally I was to pick up docs from other agents and bring them back.
4. You told Canadian authorities that Bastien was murdered when?
I never told them he was murdered. I wrote a letter to Bastien around June of 2000
from jail. I sent it to CSIS [Canadian Security and
Intelligence Service] in Ottawa, to the director for his eyes only. I had restructured
the diagram to put it back in its original state. But I never
told anyone exactly how to turn it on and how to build it. CSIS already knew that
Bastien was dead. He died six says after I was arrested on
Dec. 6. I was discharged on Dec. 9. He was killed on Dec 12.
CSIS sent RCMP [Royal Canadian Mounted Police] (Sgt. Mabe, Corporal Kispol) to visit
me in jail on Aug. 8, 2001,…and they advised me that he
was dead. They didn’t say he was murdered. They told me he was dead. I told them
that is Bastien was dead, it was murder, and that they
should get a toxicology report. And I would tell you how it was done, and who did it.
5. When did they finally admit that Bastien was murdered?
They admitted that I was correct in mid-January.
6. When did you first learn details of the attacks that were to happen on Sept. 11?
In the first week of December 2000.
7. How did you learn of the details?
One document was written in English by a U.S. agent, who had picked up a copy of a
document that had been sent to V. Putin by K. Hussein,
Saddam Hussein’s son. This is what the translation of the doc indicates. The Iraqis
knew in June 2000 that I was coming. I didn’t get my
orders until August. The letter said that Bastien and Vreeland would be dealt with
“in a manner suitable to us.” The letter specifically stated
on page two, “Our American official guarantees this.”
8. Who put the information on the attacks into the pouch, and what would have been
their motive for doing so?
I am not allowed to answer that. It would jeopardize the lives of active agents, and
it would violate the National Security Act of 1947.
9. After having learned of the details of the impending attacks on the WTC and the
Pentagon, how long did you wait before trying to notify
Canadian and U.S. authorities of the information?
On Dec. 6, 2000 I told Canadian authorities to their face that I needed to
contact the Canadian military immediately. I wrote it down. She [the
Canadian official] was playing games, so I wrote down that I was a Russian spy and a
weapons systems expert, and that I wanted to talk to
them TODAY. I said I was a Russian because figured it would get their attention. The
name they had on me was Mikhail Cristianov (Michael
Christian), because I had ID that used this name.
10. What was their reaction?
The Canadians turned blue, walked away, and I never saw them again.
11. How did it make you feel?
I was pissed off. It’s on video [referring to a standard jail
surveillance/security video].
12. Did the U.S. and Canadian response lead you to reach any conclusions? If so, what
were they?
I thought I was dealing with idiots who had no clue about what was about to
happen. It’s been put to me that there were certain officials
who wanted the attacks to happen. No one ever had any intention of building the system
I was after because it would have made the
defense budget obsolete. One thing that happened after 9-11 was that the Pentagon
budgets soared.
13. Your written warning contains the statement, “Let one happen, stop the rest.”
Who was going to let one happen? Who was going to stop
the rest?
I can’t comment on the advice of counsel.
14. Does that statement imply that the U.S. or some other intelligence agency had
achieved complete penetration of the terrorist cells?
That goes without question. Sometimes certain governments design, create networks
like Al’Qaeda, which was really the government in
Afghanistan. Those entities create specific problems at the creating government’s
direction.
15. Do you know who had achieved this penetration?
I cannot comment on that.
16. Is it possible that the terrorist cells were being “run” without knowing by
whom?
Absolutely.
17. The most common excuse people use to discredit you is that you have prior arrests
on fraud charges, and there are several press
stories linking you to alleged criminal activity. How do you explain this?
The American Express charges are b.s., and Amex has stated on tape that the specific
charges in question were approved. They admit that
there was no fraud on this card. That card had been issued to Lt. Delmart Michael
Vreeland. The Amex people admitted that the card was a
U.S. Navy card.
People have accused me of identity theft. If anybody checked with the police
departments in the U.S., they would find that there is not one
police report form any individual in the U.S. who has alleged that I have stolen any
identities. There is not a single identified victim anywhere.
Three judges in Canada have denied my requests to have discovery and disclosure on
these alleged charges.
The press stories that have circulated about my past are lies. Portions of the stories
alleging fraud and ID theft are lies. I have threatened to
sue these papers, and the stories have been pulled.
I’m working with ONI. Certain government officials -- politicians, brass, and high
ranking military -- have 11th Amendment privileges and
can’t be sued. Another government agency has to go investigate activities connected
to weapons smuggling, organized crime and drug
trafficking. They use their power to break laws, and we’re not allowed to
investigate them. Thus certain parts of the U.S. government
designed an entity called UID (Unofficial Intelligence Investigation Division). It was
designed by Adm. Jeremy Michael Boorda, who allegedly
committed suicide. Boorda put this together prior to becoming CNO [Chief of Naval
Operations]. He was not a bad guy.
Intelligence officers are sometimes put into positions where they are given
assignments to infiltrate specific organizations that are
powerful enough to check out a newcomer’s background. Page 335 of the Charter
Application in Canadian Court shows a copy of orders
from Southern Command. These orders are dated April 18, 2000, concerning an anti-drug
operation we were mounting. At approximately the
same time the media released widespread stories that I was a wanted criminal. This
was a means pf providing cover and credibility for me
with the people I was infiltrating.
18. How many times have you been arrested on criminal charges?
Maybe three. Some of this I did, like a DUI charge in New York. I had been at the
UN, and I had definitely been drinking.
19. How many times have you been convicted?
I have never been legally convicted of any criminal, felony activity anywhere.
The drunk driving charge is still pending, and I have admitted
in open court that I did it.
20. The Michigan warrant for credit card fraud is based upon the use of your own
credit card. How do you explain this?
It is a setup.
21. Were your credit cards authorized or facilitated by the U.S. Navy or any part of
the U.S. government?
Yes.
22. Could the U.S. government or any of its intelligence agencies have “inserted”
the charges through state and local agencies?
Yes.
23. You were in custody in New York on the date the alleged Michigan offense took
place. What was the charge, and what was the
disposition of that case?
That was the DUI charge.
24. Was working with organized crime families a part of your duties with the Navy?
Yes.
25. Were any of the organized crime families in Michigan?
Yes.
26. For what reason were you working with organized crime?
I was under orders to do so 90 percent of the time. Organized crime supplies the
weapons and drugs that go to the people we
investigate.
27. Are you afraid that you will be killed if you are extradited to the U.S.? Why?
Yes. Because I have spoken out.
28. Can you explain why the Canadian courts will not allow your attorneys to introduce
evidence that verifies your position with the U.S.
Navy?
Yes. The Canadians are totally subservient to U.S. intelligence interests.
They’re afraid of Uncle Sam. It would also prove that CSIS
covered up Marc Bastien’s death, and that there was a cover-up involving a member of
a major drug organization that had planned
assassinations against prominent Canadians. In fact, one individual was found dead in
a vat of acid. He was a hit man.
29. What do you want?
I want my uniform back, my back pay at $4,210.90 a month and my honor. I want
President Bush to give me a full and complete pardon and
the amnesty of the U.S. government. I am owed that. I want Bush personally to know
everything that I know, and what kind of threats there
are against the U.S.
It’s never going to happen, so I am now seeking permanent refugee status in Canada
and the protection of the United Nations.
30. What do you think will happen next in your case?
I don’t know. My attorney is in court seeking a postponement of the extradition
case because the Canadian government will not allow me
to subpoena very important U.S. witnesses from the Pentagon and other places.
31. Is the war on terrorism about something other than what the people of the world
are being told?
What war on terrorism?
32. What do you think will happen next in the war on terror?
Eventually, someone’s going to have to tell the truth. Once those people are
dealt with according to law, there will be no more false terror
spread across the globe.
33. You have recently had dealings with an American journalist named Rick Wiles. What
is your opinion of Wiles and what was your
experience?
My opinion of Wiles is that he is a psychopath, who will print anything that will make
him money. My experience with him was that I had
private conversations with him that he recorded, not telling me he was going to post
them on the Internet and sell them to the world. Then
once I contacted him and told him that he was not to do that, he said he would take
them down right now. Instead of taking them down he
placed a bigger ad. He made a bigger ad!
In my opinion he is neither honorable nor professional. He has placed my story right
next to a story about someone who talked to aliens 25
years ago. Yeah, that’s right where I want my story to be, right next to some bozo
who talks to aliens. The idiot!
So now he’s selling this phony exclusive interview with me for $20 and he’s making
all the money. He never had my permission to do that.
34. You have recently had dealings with an American journalist named J.R. Nyquist.
What is you opinion of Nyquist and what was your
experience?
Don’t even get me started. My opinion: I think he might be working for the
government. I did not know that he was writing a story about me.
He asked me some questions. I answered some questions. I recorded it, and then he went
off on a wild tangent about psychological crap,
and I didn’t even read the whole story I was so mad.
He went off about the Russians, and it’s all bs. He sent me this fax about you
saying that Ruppert was not my friend. He was saying that the
Russians had me boxed in. The truth is, the American government is boxing me in.
He’s full of shit.
35. Are all of these statements on-the-record?
Yes!
