Truth Torpedo

In Veritas, Libertas!

George Orwell wrote, “In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” Author Brian Wright argues that today a minority of power-diseased and perversely overcapitalized men—via subservient academic and journalistic syndicates—fosters a number of Big Lies…
 

Truth: The rEvolutionary Act

These lies (and their coverups) are woven by the powers into a sophisticated propaganda and behavior control technology, applied to a dumbed-down population brainwashed since childhood not to question authority. Deceit forges the chains of human bondage. Truth breaks the chains.

The people must become as guileless and fearless as the little boy in Hans Christian Andersen’s, The Emperor's New Suit, who exclaims the emperor is clearly clothing-free. The Truth Torpedo's seven simple Little Boy Truths pertain to the following issues:

1. The 9/11 attacks (a) (b)
2. Obama’s qualifications for president (c)
3. Global warming (d)
4. Chemtrails—atmospheric geoengineering (e)
5. ‘Cabalization’—Western financial oligarchy (f)
6. US Government as a terrorist organization (g)
7. The federal ‘income’ tax (h)

Grassroots public insistence on truth and justice in these areas will usher in the 'New Paradigm:' a free, benevolent, healthy, abundant society worldwide. We will break the chains, dispel the Barrier Cloud .[1]

About the Author

Brian_WrightBrian Wright was born in Michigan in 1949. He grew up near Kansas City, then in junior high his family moved to Oklahoma City. In a bookmobile he discovered seminal  writings about liberty that led to his participation in the Goldwater campaign for president (1964). Moving to Detroit, while acquiring a BSME from Wayne State University in 1969, Brian became a passionate advocate for Ayn Rand’s artistic vision of heroic individualism; in 1972 he cofounded the Libertarian Party of Michigan.

For the next three decades, he engaged in public speaking, writing, and other activities to promote cultural reason and liberty. [In 1992, Michigan drug police raided Brian’s apartment, resulting, seven years later, in a bizarre case convicting him of growing a small amount of marijuana in a Phototron.(!) This assault by the War on Drugs inspired Brian’s migration to the Free State in 2004.]

From 2002 to present, Brian has adopted a course of direct action toward political freedom, peacefully taking his freedom rather than beseeching a terrorist nation-state to let him have it. Jason Sorens’ Free State Project—cultivating an intentional libertarian society in New Hampshire—was a catalyst fueling Brian’s independent literary and Web output. He temporarily lives abroad from the Free State in the US Great Lakes region.

SunFLOW    Truthful
   It was a pleasure reading "The Truth Torpedo" by Brian Wright. Watching the American public, I know full well the "persistent primitive brain structure stuck on yielding blindly to social authority." The social programming has always been with us, through many methods. I find much of what's said by our controlled media to be lies: 911 story, Waco, Oklahoma building, CO2 global warming.
   There is no doubt in my mind that, as the author writes, an "ultra-powerful elite exists outside the natural social order, and, in fact, consciously shapes much of the public opinion through control of information and coordinated application of literally trillions worth of resources." The Truth Torpedo is a welcome broadside against this controller class.

   Half and Half
   While I genuinely enjoyed this author's SNaP primers, I have mixed reactions to The Truth Torpedo.
    Half the listed truths require too great a suspension of my disbelief :) The other half -- global warming and the money-supply truths -- I do endorse. I also share the author's concern about maintaining our national sovereignty. But under the topic of foreign infiltration, there are broader and more serious threats, and stronger arguments against them than the one mentioned in the book....
    For those unfamiliar with this author's previous works or website, I recommend Truth Torpedo only as a second read. Without prior context, it's a bit heavy. His movie reviews and lighter fare like "Don't Throw Mamma off the Turnpike" would be good intros.
—Rose, Troy, MI
   Simple Premise
   This is a book with big ideas. And while there are not a lot of pages, there are links to a huge amount of online material.
    Wright has a simple premise: As an adult we tend to see what we believe; to see what fits our preconceptions. But very young people, without preconceptions, are more apt to see the truth when it is presented to them. (Studies show that even a preschooler's creativity diminishes after a few years in school.)
    So then, what if we, as adults, looked at some of the major ideas of our time through the eyes of a preschooler? For example, the 9/11 attacks. Could an airplane flying into a skyscraper bring it quickly to a pile of rubble? What are the facts? What do you believe? Like it or not, you will find your preconceptions stretched.
    I wish there were fewer acronyms, and more of the online material brought into the book. Regardless, I highly recommend The Truth Torpedo.

   You might love it if you're that sort of person
   The question is, who are you? Are you the kind of person who wonders if the government is up to a whole lotta bad? Do you look up, out, or around and see connections between major events or phenomena and government oppression? If so, you'll probably like, or even love, this little book. It's an easy read which connects the dots between bad things you may already know about (eg. 9/11) and ever growing government. You'd probably give this five stars....
    About the nature of bad-thing X, Y, and Z, I find much agreement with the author. For this reason, I give the book higher marks. Whether or not the cited phenomena occur at all (eg. chem trails), or whether or not they are caused by some secret government conspiracy (eg. 9/11), the truth is the government's response has been to ratchet up the oppression at every convenient opportunity. The examples in the book, true or not in their conspiracy theory elements, do illustrate that point quite well. That truth is one worth talking about, and I am glad to see one more person doing just that.
    Most important is the suggestion that we seek the truth. Whether or not it is found in this book is up to you to discern. But I will join the author in wholeheartedly encouraging you to evaluate everything that comes your way. We may mistake the truth for a lie from time to time, but when we stop looking for truth, we will surely be deceived. Indeed, the more truth we understand, the more clearly we see the world. If nothing else, this book should encourage you to relentlessly pursue truth, and that is worthwhile.

   A true torpedo of truth
   "All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed, and third, it is accepted as self-evident." -Arthur Schopenhauer
   Free-State project pioneer and liberty activist Brian Wright has just published a follow-on to his excellent SNaP (Sacred Non-aggression Principle) series of treatises on libertarian consciousness and its practical applications. The new work is titled 'The Truth Torpedo- Blowing off the Barrier Cloud'.
   In this new exploration, Brian presents seven "little boy truths" (meaning truths like the nakedness of the Emperor observed by the one member of the crowd in Hans Christian Anderson's 'The Emperor's New Clothes' whose eyes were not clouded by illusions and voice was not stilled by fear or false propriety). Each of these truths concerns a serious "elephant in the living room" going unremarked and even actively denied by many Americans.
   Brian's focus in this slim but tight volume is on the 9/11 hoax; Barack Obama's qualifications to be president; global warming; Chemtrails; Cabalization (the Western financial oligarchy); the US government as a terrorist organization; and the "income" tax. I don't necessarily share Brian's take on all of these issues, but it may just be that he knows some things that I don't; on most issues I believe Brian is shooting bull's-eyes. Certainly, everything is well- and thought-provokingly-presented; and all of Brian's positions are well-reasoned and sober.
   Brian's overall message-- that shaking free of both blithe complacency and fuzzy and foggy delusions and conditioning so as to rise to our true potential as a liberty-focused society requires plain-speaking and honest evaluation of facts, even those that may be uncomfortable to consider or admit-- is both undeniable and critically important. I recommend this book to everyone.

   Only two stars from me, but I hope for better!
   I have known the author for decades, so I hesitate to risk a valued friendship. But he asked for my input, knowing my feelings from several conversations we have shared over the years. And, to borrow a phrase, "The truth shall set you free." Having read this booklet twice, I have arrived at the following observations:
   1. It is generally well written. I saw none of the errors or typographical glitches that usually hide within initial releases. The text and the illustrations seem coherent. The quality of the publication is excellent.
   2. It does not defend the positions adopted by the author. He leaves this defense to other publications, which he references in detail. The net result of this "Reader's Guide" approach is to leave the reader wondering about the gaps. If the reader has any doubts concerning the positions presented, those doubts will not be addressed solely by reading this pamphlet....
   3. What remains is rhetoric. I must admit that, knowing the author's background in libertarian politics, what I expected and hoped for was a Thomas Paine paper... perhaps some soaring quotes from Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, or Thomas Jefferson. But what I found was some rather gratuitous lapses into painful slang. For example, phrases like "el barrier de crapola,""a barnacle on the ass of progress," and "gilded-ass poobahs" only detract from whatever case is being proposed ....
   4. The subject matter is even more painful. I guess I could understand a spirited attack on the Federal Reserve or the federal income tax. But the approach here is not that these are problems that need to be fixed. They are instead described as evil conspiracies...
   After finishing the booklet for the second time, I was left feeling that I had just been yelled at, but not knowing why. If I had been inspired by the rhetoric to pursue it further, I could have read all the referenced sources. But I was not that inspired....

   A good wakeup call
   I like the LBT pamphlet- it covers a lot, and I agree in full with 6 of 7. It is an effective wake-up call. Putting 9/11 at the top is right- it is an enormous, blatant inside-job crime, along with an equally blatant destruction of a crime scene, followed by an amazingly obvious cover-up. No good can come from ignoring 9/11, yet many do. Thank you for putting 9/11 front and center. Obama did nothing to pursue truth or justice relating to 9/11. If Obama had been the "real change", indictments would have been flying through the air immediately after he assumed office.
   Again, you are right about the cabal at the top- that is a fact. The GOTUS is a monster that thrives on our nationalistic patriotism (it wants to be loved!) and it feeds by taxing- also by the Federal Reserve. In any case, we, the 99+%, are the hosts in a parasitic relationship. It looks to me that the global warming thing, even if true, will ultimately be used to suck more money out of our pockets by way of global taxes, and I have no doubt that the cabal at the top will not be paying them- it'll fall on us 99+%ers.
   By the way, I am all for alternate energy and conservation of resources and NOT poisoning the world. There are many scary things happening- the Fukushima disaster is ongoing, and over a thousand reactors on the planet continue to produce radioactive wastes (and a lot of heat). There are numerous plastics, pesticides and other toxic chemicals poisoning the world. Carbon dioxide is not a toxin, but a product of respiration and a product of burning carbon-containing substances. Anyway, in my estimation, six out of seven of your points are absolutely correct, but global warming is still open for further research and discussion.
   I like Wright's book, both for what he says and how he says it- it is brief and covers a lot. It is written in the spirit of pamphlets from earlier centuries, both in form- it fits in a pocket- and in substance- it delivers an effective combination of punches.

   Truth of Empire in Decline
   I enjoyed "The Truth Torpedo". It's an excellent primer for those interested in finding the rips in our social fabric that should be obvious to all but which are obscured by the fog of deception. Fear, guilt and sorrow are employed by the power brokers to divert our attention even though Hermann Goering explained this all very eloquently at the Nuremberg trials last century. Obviously humanity wasn't paying attention then and it appears many are not paying attention now.
    Manipulation of the masses works best when you control all media and Brian has done an great job bringing attention back to key issues which need examination. He has brought us back to things we all better focus on if we are going to change the world for the better. Many educated and confused people want to lead us away from the truth of 9/11 and we really need to ask some elementary questions. The evidence is piling up for anyone willing to open their eyes. If those educated people are not confused, I suggest then they have an agenda.
   The Republicrats blame each other for declining social structure as they ease us toward the next war. Most people are oblivious to the fact America is the current empire in decline as our drones continue to act as judge, jury and executioner for those innocents standing a little too close to the perceived guilty. America has overextended militarily as infrastructure collapses and this Fascist state is more concerned about manipulating the electorate than it is about feeding the growing ranks of poverty stricken. In a time of universal deceit asking uncomfortable questions is the only path to resolving an uncomfortable truth. Brian has done his part to move us in that direction. We should start asking questions, and start moving.

   Inspiring
   It reads like a synopsis rather than a story/narrative, and few but the very interested will take the time to checkout all the footnotes & references for details, but all in all, it was inspiring. I have personally been growing discouraged about the prospects of a libertarian society re-emerging here in America given the popular acceptance of Socialistic idealism on the left and Fascist nationalism on the right.
   The Spiritual references in the book reminded me that freedom, like everything, is an "inside job" - as I change, the world around me changes (ie: the Law of Attraction). Healing the planet occurs one person at a time, and to that end this book will make a difference to those (like me) who are in need of a boost or are ready to change. —John Henry, Lansing, MI
   The Naked Emperor as 900# Gorilla
   As a longtime fan of Brian Wright's writings--via the Coffee Coaster (...) and his books, chiefly the Sacred Nonaggression Principle (...)--I am thrilled to see he has rendered his recent Coffee Coaster column into a short 28-page book. It could and should be a blockbuster... or 'Barrier Cloud' buster. :)
   One of my friends exclaimed that we should leave all these transparent government deceptions alone, particularly 9/11, and focus on the Freedom Movement. My feeling is without truth there can be no freedom. After all, the state as a destructive engine of coercion, must lie about its acts of aggression to fool the people into acquiescing to the crimes. Wright's book, T3, goes to the heart of the 'truth crimes' by nailing the current US state--which Brian prefers to abbreviate GOTUS--for major acts of deception. He also identifies the metaphysics of the power sickness that leads to this central-corporatized state-enabled oligarchy to commit its systematic ongoing atrocities on the people.
   Exactly as the author writes, we are in an era of massive willful deception about the ravages of the 900-# gorilla of US/Western money-cum-state power. The cure is simple and refreshing, just as the Little Boy in Hans Christian Andersen's parable: simply to assert the obvious, that the king and the king's men are wholly bereft of value or virtue.

   A FAN OF TRUTH tORPEDO
   The seven Little Boy Truths that bind this important work will, if believed as I do from personal contacts over the years, throw the USA into overdrive on a road to freedom.
   #1 Truth One is yes, the 9/11 attack was known at least two days in advance which is the day my FBI friend learned of it, found a pic of the World Trade Center, photocopied, printed the day and time of the attack would occur, and handed them out at a Montana mall to try to save lives. Subsequently he fled government agents attempts on his life to Baja, Mexico where I still visit.
   #2 Truth Two of the book was confirmed long ago by a State Dept. acquaintance who stated that Obama´s meteoric rise in politics involved a gift of Cuneiform tablets in return for future political favors.
   #3 Truth Three involves the trumpeted war on terrorism and this is just one back up of a string of war veterans I know. He´s a U.S. Marine working for $12 per 10 hour day on the hot asphalt of a Mexico service station. He had joined the U.S. Marines, served in the MidEast guarding American oil compounds ´like all the rest of my Marine buddies´, returned to USA and applied for a US passport per Bush´s new law that an honorably discharged war veteran had earned a US passport. However, through a bureaucratic glitch when he returned two years ago from Mexico to California to his Los Angeles wife and baby, the US Immigration had no record of his application for passport, he owned the documents to serve his country but not to enter it, and he was chained and thrown into Immigration jail and a week later deported to Mexico.
    #4 As for Truth Four I don’t know much about con and chemtrails, but when I lived in L.A. copters semiannually swept four abreast like a towering scythe carpeting the entire city with a pesticide. People ran to the rooftops shooting guns in protest and the whole place smelled bad for an hour.
   #5 Truth #5- President Eisenhower near the end of his last term one Wednesday poker night came up to my earlier mentioned FBI friend and apologized for ignoring a ´hot wire´ the guy had sent from US Army Intelligence in Rothwestin, Germany one week before the Nov. 4, 1956 Budapest Invasion that butchered thousands of Hungarians. The hot wire followed the President around three golf courses back to the White House, as confirmed by the State Dept… and years later Ike came up to my buddy washing his car where Ike played poker and said, 'Richard, I'm sorry. The President of the United States doesn’t make those kinds of war-time decisions. No President does. They're made by a panel of advisors.'
   #6 Having traveled in 105 countries to come to appreciate what I have in the USA, it´s my belief that we need a standing Army for protection. On the side, three times a week the military bombs the center target of pallets, plywood tanks, and dummies on sticks at the 2nd largest bombing range in the world, the Chocolate Mt. Gunnery Range, a few miles from my desert home in the California Sonora.. Two weeks ago I went afoot scavenging brass shells machine gunned hours earlier from Marine helicopters practicing against the hills. It was a nighttime operation and I got chased by a copter with a front running heat sensor-infrared like a viper, and escaped by crawling under an arroyo ledge and building a stone wall to shield my body heat. In this way, with three night runs for recyclables (brass is going for $2/lb or about $.25 per shell) I helped finance a ticket to Florida for an early Christmas with my family.
   #7 Truth #7 about the IRS I can´t comment on since I´m careful not to earn enough to fall into a taxable bracket. That's why I headed for the hills ten years ago to save expenses, live simply and read.
   Thanks to author Brian Wright, who moonlights as an editor and publisher and did two of my books, for his Truth Torpedo with its solutions. He remembers that every criticism should be tendered with a solution.
