Our dearest
friend, Mike, passed away this past weekend, apparently resulting from
his heart condition made worse by the stress he endured first in losing
his job, being forced to relocate out here to Idaho and then the housefire that took place 3 weeks ago, forcing him to relocate again.

Michael Collins Piper's Biography :
I've been writing for some 25 years. My critics deny me the label
"journalist" and call me a "neo-Nazi" a "bigot," an "anti-Semite,"
"filth," and other such choice titles, although most people who know me -
including my Jewish friends—think I'm a pretty nice guy, even if they
don't necessarily agree with everything I write. I am best known — and
most reviled — for having written a book entitled "FINAL JUDGMENT: THE
MISSING LINK IN THE JFK ASSASSINATION CONSPIRACY," which makes the
'controversial" allegation that Israel's intelligence service, the
Mossad, was closely connected with many of the key figures widely
"linked" by other writers to the JFK assassination conspiracy and that,
in fact, Israel's friends and assets in the United States and elsewhere
played a role in the JFK assassination precisely because President
Kennedy was adamantly determined to prevent Israel from assembling an
arsenal of nuclear weapons of mass destruction. My critics say that my
book is driven by an "anti-Israel" or "anti-Semitic" agenda and I am the
first to admit that — from the beginning of my career in writing — I
have been an outspoke critic of US favoritism for Israel. And it is
precisely this interest in U.S. Middle East policy that led me to
explore JFK's policies toward Israel (which few JFK assassination
researchers had EVER explored).
Many people pretend to have read my book when they are knocking it down,
and some even call me a "racist" not realizing that the introduction to
the book was written by Dr. Robert L. Brock, the veteran
African-American civil rights activist who is widely known as "the
reparations man," having been the grandfather of the modern-day
movement for reparations for American descendants of persons who were
taken captive in the trans-Atlantic African slave trade!
It was only well after my book was first published that I learned that
veteran JFK researcher Penn Jones (the so-called "grand old man" of the
researchers") had written back in the 1970s, not once, but twice, that
looking in the direction of Israel's intelligence service in exploring
the JFK assassination conspiracy appeared to be quite reasonable — a
point that most of my critics are probably unaware of and will be
hard-pressed to explain away, without perhaps labeling Penn Jones as I
have been labeled.
I should note that I have worked closely over the years with attorney
Mark Lane, author of RUSH TO JUDGMENT, A CITIZEN'S DISSENT, and
PLAUSIBLE DENIAL, the latter book being the volume that describes CIA
man E. Howard Hunt's lawsuit against Liberty Lobby, the institution
which employed me from 1980 through 2001.
Through my association with Liberty Lobby I not only came to know Mark
quite well — and have been a guest in his home many times — but I also
became well acquainted with a number of individuals who have been, in
one fashion or another, become intimately connected to circumstances
surrounding the JFK assassination, the anti-Castro Cuban movement, etc.
Among them: Victor Marchetti, author of THE CIA AND THE CULT OF
INTELLIGENCE, the late Time-Life correspondent Andrew St. George, whose
work is known to anyone with any serious knowledge of the Cuban
Revolution and the CIA's activities in the region (Andrew being a close
pal of Frank Sturgis, and, at one time, Fidel himself), and the late
Fletcher Prouty.
Actually, I'm being modest here. The truth is that Mark Lane, Victor
Marchetti and Andrew St. George have not just been business associates.
They've been good friends — and all of them very valued friends, in
more ways than one.
My book has sold just under 50,000 copies, both here and abroad, which
is considerably more than perhaps MOST of the other books on the JFK
assassination and although the false legend has it that I am a
"celebrated speaker" at so-called "neo-Nazi" and "KKK events" the truth
is that my largest audiences have been abroad in such places as
Malaysia and Japan where hardly a "neo-Nazi" or "KKKer" is to be found.
My critics contend that I focus on the issue of Israel in my writings. I
am proud to say that is precisely correct. Having seen my own older
brother ravaged by his service during the Vietnam War, I became — as a
teenager — a foe of needless foreign wars and in watching all-out U.S.
support for Israel, I predicted more than 25 years ago that the United
States would get bogged down in the Middle East and ultimately subjected
to a terrorist attack relating to U.S. involvement in the Middle East.
I am a determined critic of U.S. support for Israel and have been proud
to share friendship with a number of other outspoken critics of U.S.
support for Israel including the aforementioned Mark Lane, Dr. Alfred
Lilienthal, and the late Haviv Schieber (who served as the first mayor
of Beersheba in Palestine---before the founding of Israel—near where
Israel's officially non-existent nuclear weapons plant at Dimona is
located).
And --- guess what --- all of the aforementioned happen to be Jewish
(but they've been called "anti-Semitic" by the Anti-Defamation League
and other elements of the Israeli lobby.)
The truth is that if I didn't have the wide-ranging background and
knowledge about Israel — coupled with no hesitation in daring to explore
areas (involving Israel) that other JFK "researchers" are fearful of
exploring — I would have never been able to write FINAL JUDGMENT in the
first place.
I have no official website on my own, but — as my critics well know — it
is possible to do a search of "Michael Collins Piper" on google and
find all sorts of stuff about me, both pro- and con.
Although my critics — many of whom are rather disingenuous, to say the
least — like to suggest that only "Nazis" promote my works, serious
open-minded researchers will find that my writings have been featured
on a wide variety of venues and endorsed by progressive-minded folks of
all races, creeds and colors.
I write regularly for American Free Press, which has a website at
americanfreepress.net and also The Barnes Review which has a website at
barnesreview.org.
Needless to say, I don't agree with everything that appears in these
publications nor, necessarily do other writers for these publications
agree with what I write. But there's something called "freedom of
expression" that a lot of my critics do not understand. And as anyone
who has ever dared to touch on the topic of Israel and its power in
official Washington knows well, topics relating to anything to do with
Israel and related issues are considered "special" and, in some
respects, beyond discussion.
Although I spent many hours --- perhaps needlessly --- trying to
rationally discuss the subject of FINAL JUDGMENT on other JFK
assassination related discussion groups (with my critics instead
focusing not on the JFK assassination but instead on the subject of the
Holocaust), I have opted to request permission to post — if only once —
on the Education Forum since the thread of discussion about me
(although not about my book and its thesis!) seems to be, by far, the
topic of most interest at this time.
If granted the right to post on the forum, I certainly intend to respond
to many distortions and some of the eggregious and bigoted and
hate-filled name calling directed at me (much of it hysterical in tone
and obviously agenda-driven), but, more importantly, I would like to
discuss SPECIFICS about my book, not generalities, and not just
ASSUMPTIONS AND PRESUMPTIONS made by people based on what they've heard
about me (and about the book) from others, most of whom have never even
read the book
