We are building a mike god. in the main nineteen. Seventy nine issue of special weapons and tactics. The issue had a story about the revolution in granada boy, the deposed president Eric Gary was it look are, as I say, the deposed president. Air Gary was looking for weapons and mercenaries to take granada back from the communists. MIKE decided. He was the perfect man. Do it boy? He certainly it

talking. Like he was for some time he loved telling stories of his time in the battlefields of vietnam, southern africa and latin america. told everyone who was a mercenary he'd, been fighting rhodesia, running guns in nicaragua and fighting market marxists in Uruguay, all not real, but that didn't stop him from thinking. He was the man to take back granada he's going to take back granada, launder your asshole, so he's just really he it's it's not about it's not about the cause at all. He just is looking to fuck people up now. He wants to fucking. Do some shit right. He wants to give in their fight. That's what I mean, though it's not like he's like I dunno. Maybe he wants to actually do some battle. No! No! Yes, he does, but maybe for a moral cause.

This report back, if I know give cat Gary agreed to meet MIKE ok, Yes, I will well member this guys, like you for mercenaries, who take back, as I still at the meeting MIKE told ms mercenary background, which was not real and said, what assemble a group to take back the island good gary did not agree to or reject the plan You just was like and walked out of the room, yet basically ok, but might felt like he was into it and started planning for an invasion of granada. What's he didn't get the green light but he feels like it was great. You didn't get it not green light. You don't get a red levine's girl! That's right! First MIKE, went to see american

white nationalist, anti semite and former grand wizard of the complex clam David duke, oh god, first number one. Where are you going to go if you're going to invade grenada everywhere else? The duke was giving a speech and MIKE approached him afterwards and explained his awesome plan duke wasn't really into in countries on the side you know. Had the police polish citizen focused so much unheeding raises that our? Why right buddy dig MIKE some names of guys who might be interested here, some bigger assholes to hey. If somebody me and there they came and you want to invade granada. I believe I don't. I don't really want to myself no sombre. I know a lot of. I know a lot of cool dudes it'd be down to do that. Greg behrendt would like to bang that commercial non johnny reply. Like your vision, This is going to be a pretty funny invasion. So far generated you go with with, must shut up there

Tell you if his instagram pictures tell you anything it's that he's looks like a warrior at this point. That's it. We got four, that's plenty. The first guy mike talked to, I would have said well, but the hips I just don't see yeah. I don't see he also the pot there. Well, look he'll figure out a way to get some and we will need someone to roll. The first guy mike talked to told him about dominica. dominica me in sunday in a time that's the day, christopher columbus spot of the island in having no imagination. He named it sunday, the french, eventually kind of jacques. The columbus wasn't far more create. Isn't that a name like such a deep thinker? Look there's an island. What day? Is it sunday? Christopher. Why name the island? What will they name it? It's sunday

I know I know it's sunday, but what will we name the island christopher in the eye after the day, we're naming it after today's? and they were naming at that day. So we don't forget that it's sunday. I agree that the island there will always be Sunday It makes sense. Ok make sense. So if it's tuesday and you come here than it starts the week over, we'll call it e g I sundays, eventually claimed dominica and french missionaries live there in seventeen, three, the island was given to the british after the war. Ok go take that if I go very happy with this year's. Thank you kindly the british than created. That only represented white people, you ve done more good work reaction, this everywhere, yeah slaves are brought in to take care of

crops, but many ran away and lived in the mountains and valleys of the islet. Honestly, it's so much better yeah, like yeah. Most of the caribou now said, curbs in this story. Care of scarabs, most of the curbs, were killed by smallpox and warfare. or somewhere assimilated. The remaining care people today live on a psychosis natives. I took a live on a three thousand seven hundred acre district on islands, east coast of that around a total of seventy thousand people live on the island. Seventy five percent of domestic dominicans are of african defence. The descent france and events. There is a small european minority member third nineteen. Seventy eight, the commonwealth of dominica, was granted independence by the united kingdom. Ok go by free

Look up telling you we don't want you anymore, leave your tiny coach. just can't go kenya cricketer and football player. Patrick John was the first prime minister could the other rival you jean charles, who wrote anonymous newspaper coms, attacking Patrick johns policies. She was, then to the legislature as a member of the opposition party. So she just talk shit on him and then get elected. Yes, you talk. She read relevant you shit articles about him in the paper and then was like get in there. Ok, so this move forward. She

then elected to the alleged there's a member of the opposition party, because she was a woman. The premier tried to enact a dress code you need charles, then came the next day dressed in a bathing suit. Wait sheet. They let you try to do it, try to do addressed good right, so saying my skirts only arranged and then sir, she to combat that came in a became the next day, issues that should offer, but that that should be that, like if you If you made that rule you like regular. This worked out pretty good sunburn. All women, we must there's a drastic out now everyone, bikinis that your pants one of the and also had a group of militant rastafari ones who are known as the dreads: okay, an old disney ish cute little business, bad guy, hey with the dreads mon you'd like to come now. Let's hear us now to dreads but jasmine make say it's mon cousin

dreadlock can't a they rejected anything that had to do with the white man that included western medicine, food and clothes, and by close I mean they would walk naked along the side of the road. But there you go take that convention they they. This is the kind of shit you can fucking pull when you're on a fucking, caribbean island yeah. But you can't do that if it's iceland, so a great battle you on their fucking bullshit. It's gotta be weighed when you're fighting naked people got him whether rastafarians there we had snow, you bastards, they would also walk on the road they walked beside it because asphalt was brought by the white man. Notoriety grew pot in remote. Hills say that now this these are my people. Yet they were also read: plantations for food and attack farmers, wives tours and

Police there lies a mere little, they would spit on or stone tourists. Okay. So again I like to get on early, and I shouldn't be doing that I'm off of this ban wagon again, I'm outta. Here facts from now on before an appeal that american amount. Again, I'm out and then they kill the retired canadian couple like I said, I'm the I'm way off on this one yeah. No, not my people, not my people have this all led to a huge drop in tourism and then the government passed the prohibit It an unlawful societies associations act, this made it legal to be a dread. Ok, it's not illegal to its illegal. To be a person, is it illegal to be aroused a foreign or its red? It's illegal to be couldn't support the dreads and you could now dread locks, but ok, that's asking of good amount.

killing or wounding a dread found inside a dwelling, a building of any. It was legal. What if he found edge, he found a fucking dread in a palace, kiting he just kill them. You anywhere. If you watch any, was likewise the bathroom man get to shoot him in the head right there. The islands, a hundred and sixty soldiers and police officers went on the attack. These three hundred dreads were chased through the forest and had shootouts with law enforcement. Now this our bad for patch of john on may twenty, ninth nineteen. Seventy five protest broke out after drawn trot john tried to outlaw strikes. such a hard thing to our norma strikes mine. and then it's an island and then someone and the people that we strike- that's bullshit

it's in a more modern yeah rocks were thrown by protesters, defense's defense forces shot back at them, and nineteen protester was killed and ten wounded members of pet, and this isn't members of the tiny island so yeah, it's like shooting it's like a high school. Haven't war right. Nevertheless, like an american high school, get members, Patrick Johns government slowly build on it, He had no majority. Suddenly an eugenie charles was elected prime minister with sub ensue right, so we got it. We got prime minister became in those. Sometimes three months later hurricane David hit dominica. Forty two people were killed. Seventy five percent of the homes were destroyed or severely damaged and the, banana harvest was toast the uk, France, the usa, canada all help the island coordinating the foreign military system. was senior officer of the dominica defence force. Captain Reid.

He had also ordered the shooting of the protesters. Ok, great back of a u s, mind. Met a man named Arnie poly named army poly irony already, Pauli Pauli, okay polly had gone to dominica to scout it out. That was where they plan to stage the invasion of grenada totally was disappointed when he met MIKE quote. He gave me the standard we've got to get these commies. This guy was weird, but I thought fees a vietnam vet. Maybe he got fucked up over there and he's got post traumatic stress. He was a little puffed up, Little baby ape what and he bought, and he agreed to be a part of this you're still going to work with a guy. I mean yeah he's a baby ape. So let's see what he could do he's not going to put up squishy baby

A guy can already severely is another puffed up. Squishy baby go just touch what you shit, but I'm on board, but I'll follow under the gates out you, son, ok, ok, I only knew a tennessee lawyer named Jw Kirkpatrick, who he thought could toss some money into the venture at that point, after hearing about dominica from poly mike suddenly thought invading dominica might be a better idea. Sorry, but what that's not? What do you mean? That's quite an audible while the islands and island yeah, but okay, so he just sounds like a bear. Here's what it sounds like a bad move, but it sounds like there's a lot of countries who are who have been trying to help it so It sounds like you know you know. So they going up just against them. You're going up with a kind of an international force, be rewarded island have ever wanted? An island too know I'll be honest, so you're right, maybe

in a position to them. They don't have a lot of lake aspiration sensational aspirations. Are you ok, do you How do you do you want to deny lab gonna you're gonna get our lunch down there. The known stadium share yeah no and by the way, now's the time divine island with the lower I see well take, is yet take it sure, sorry to infer that you would do anything sort of legal to get it apologize, that with the rich lawyer and told them, it would be easier to take over dominica. He said investors, Open up casinos, this lawyer, this is the guy that polly, oh and then he so he's the JW kirkpatrick, so polly introduces make to the lawyer and the lawyers. As you know, what I've been looking

Well, then, I think that this dominica is the way to go with lawyers like as a lawyer, I think, he's right and he could open up casinos and banks. So this is just like a fucking cash run. Sure Kirkpatrick gave MIKE ten thousand dollars cash to great investment. Yeah smart turn into more money. Yeah then MIKE empoli, two dominica to quote: look at the situation and see if we could create a coup, it's the right order to to go and get ya get all the funding and then get down there and weigh it. They took pictures of everything, then they return and probably went back to canada and he never heard from MIKE again interesting. So good, smart mike didn't like paulie, it turns out so a new guy came in wolf gang drudge, also known as wolf. Okay, I'm all ears. Wolf was a

women, canadian. He was also in a white people. He had spent fourteen days in jail. Nineteen. Seventy five for sprang white power slogans on a store in toronto, lowest white power crime ever mean that is a white power collar crime. He wanted to create an exclusively. Why state for those wishing to live in an area among their own kind. Call it white land was worth. He was a great recruiter for the canadian k k, K of which he was a founding member of god. The canadian k k k get the seek a god. I wish that canada started with a gay, so wolf went to diminish, travel see he met a couple of guys who are trying to open a casino dominica but weren't, getting cooperation from the government, wolf told them his plan, but they weren't down with overthrowing the government. They were, however, from vegas and they invite Wolfgang and mike

come to the city and they were going to injured, introduce them to their rich friends to tool to get to take over a country. Right I mean it's, not an independent failed, its america's. What you do I got player a guy named wolves, god come to vegas, we can meet Obama my mind com, you can meet some. His friends, say: love to invest enough to gamble, come up with a plan right right down in good news, Meet a guy named war from got me just brand somewhere mike and wolf spent five weeks living in a hotel in vegas, trying to convince investors to come on board for there and take over now my seekers thing: it's Excalibur faces a shit all what about this junk? Ok, look! Ok, circa, circus! Yeah! I see great We can get a cheap room over its.

This via please, we possible just the stratosphere, hello, that's love. okay, so as they stayed there MIKE, while I did say how halo halo is, this is worth this is. What do you have? Any vacancies were down as the excalibur, so now, as I stated, My story started to get bigger while they were there. Oh good, he was telling people he was connected to the state department. Now then, let's be one of those things that like cars, because you here you're, probably hearing the versions of this grow that the first they state department comes out. That's interesting! there were three weeks in it for the first time ever department. I didn't want to tell you yeah. I know guys have the other Five meetings leaders like so I work at the state department and the cia circle, He said the statement deplorable, would take care of any problems.

Rather ran into good, he also started, say, is connected to the reagan campaign and that of rangoon was elected. They have a lot of influence that no one from vegas invested in this amazing amazing plan. No, if there's one town, that's gonna give you money for your crazy bullshit. It really should be this one. Wolfgang went back to his day, job at manager of capital, business forms where he made twenty three thousand a year man. He want These are countries no bar mike them went to jack. Mississippi met a guy named danny hawkins, hardly ever this has an animal in their name. Yet the hawk I'm just gonna finish. outcome of the wolf time limit. There is so he wakes up every morning against a married to you

the clear why aids freaks we our ever, I didn't know you were sleeping, organs, is a thirty seven year old father of three of boy, like his daddy, was a clansmen good. You can. be fearless an idealized. The german racial myth, MIKE told hawkins he was starting an incursion to stop the advance of communism. Hawkins didn't care about money. He just wants to stop. Commies, He introduced might to ellie Matthews an ex emperor wizard of the K, K, K and Matthews gave my can check for three thousand dollars. I think we ve talked about, but the idea that they call themselves wizards bid cynics wizard over here. Like this, Really I mean you know, you're, the actual, if once you're wizard yours, a wizard, a wizard, deserted idiotic, an.

I am racist enough. Eventually it I'll be a bridge. Try dar garbage! one met the jar goblet from Louisiana. If you get a seat next to that guy, don't move he's also he's great mike, then got a meeting with former dominica prime minister, Patrick John. Well,. Patrick John was now a pig farmer and ran a gas station, so that's please something he told this fellow employees in their like right anyway. Go philip that fuckin car

You know I used to be the prime minister of dominica right, get over yeah yeah for you to claim that dudes windshield. Sorry, prime minister, is this your pig yeah? That's that's my okay. Mike said he was an expert. Sorry MIKE said he was an american export. quote I'd, be interested in financing. You know a coup for the island might told John a day later, MIKE was presented with letter of intent quote. I Patrick John, do here by agree in principle with the general provisions of the proposed agreement subject to further discussions, and amendments says rather vague. I made it vague for legality, it's pretty vague, because your area can tell you got to. You know, have a coup on your island, but you also want to make it sound, like you might just be and you get a low wiggle rode away pig farming totally. What do you mean coup? He did what.

oh from the pig farm agreement come on, I was talking about now. I know you're lying. No, I was talking about pigs. I wasn't talking about no coup. I know come on baby baby boy that I've always gets yet. I also have smoking mike used this letter to get more money out of ellie matthews who sent him a cheque for four thousand eight hundred. Ok, so here's the thing you're able he would he is doing, is clearly effective, but wouldn't just be so much smarter to just once you have that letter just be a fucking con man. Well, that's behind what it seems like you: going right, but he's not it, but is he but where's that money got seven thousand seventeen thousand. You don't know what it feels like that money is not like he's, not swindling people. He is getting ready for some sort of revolution in which he answered with a knife. Maybe, unlike you ever, he has little integrity. Dave. There's, no there's a fair. My thanks! a company called nor tick enterprises of care. It get It- nordic, yes,

Oh, you didn't know. White guy had this sound work. If I were for aerial industries. My could get a fee for overthrowing the government of dominica. That fee would go to nordic enterprise. any revenue from ireland like logging, agriculture, airports, banks, casinos and tourist facilities will also go to. The nordic mike's plan must have Patrick John, give all the rights of all that stuff to nordic tax, free, my figured with this great plan. He could sell shares in nordic and use that money to raise money for the coup and mercenaries with each get shares in the company as payment michael

well mike, was going to sell shares for six thousand dollars each so good idea. So it's a pyramid scheme. It's a coup pyramid scheme. No, it's not a pyramid scheme because you're actually going to make money on the other end. You are. Yeah, because if you invest that you're not but right, ok, it's not a pyramid scheme. Ets, I will skip terrible, a terrible, a terrible plan. It's really right. It doesn't sound like insulation best doesn't feel like you re getting your money back now, Patrick John supporters on the island we're getting excited by this idea. They wanted me to come the oven to meet major frederick Newton head of the military captain, reid second, in command of the military and to dread leaders. Ok, that treads now wanted to get rid of eugenie charles and apparently bring back into the power. The guy

who had made their existence illegal, that's how much they hated it very small island. They don't like her now So now the game over that guy made its illegal man, we must it's getting because our guy made illegal the last guy. He was like a fuck you, you can't exist man. We want that fella back he's better than what we got Now the deep the defence force officers told me the best way to go about getting weapons on the island the best way to go about getting weapons on the island to take it over. Right. So they said we have. They told him the best way to get weapons they promised with weapons. They have enough manpower to get it done with the mercenaries back them up, then they may make an honorary member of the defence force will back was now kept taken at naysayers, yelled and believe captain reid said quote: he spoke like you,

We also spoke about, haven't some business connections, access to funds spoken impressive line mike, went to Houston and with patrick johns letter of intent. He showed the money to an investor who gave him ten thousand dollars in cash and to checks one for twelve thousand and one for twenty thousand light. I just to fund this this thing that isn't going to happen now he's made fifty nine thousand what the fuck. I think I have it all right, just off the letter of and might also had a five page contract from Patrick John after the coup mike would have a senior posts in the militia. Oh, my god. He would handle the supervision and training

the national defence, oh my god, the nordic company would be paid. Fifty thousand dollars for the coup mike would get two points percent of an eighty million development loan that Patrick charm believed he would then get from foreign donors. Nordic enterprises would get tax exemption for twenty years. All my candidate was returned, Patrick The power within one month mean, and it's gotta be hard because he's basically just got experience as a truck driver. and watching over people any raising eyes and he's been in jail and he's in charge.

Woods it was. The first sergeant in the dominica defense force mean these guys are getting great positions in this hypothetical army now, but aren't now so this is like now we have a legitimate guy who served in nam now talking to the blowhard from fucking vietnam, you mainly know he's a blowhard yeah right, but he, but they don't don't. They want to believe

Okay bill said he was quote fucking nuts march a bill where you been on the podcast baby, fucking nuts to march in the Dominican. Okay, we're not going to march. You can take a boat though so maybe if you do not talk to any of the stupid one cause we're not going to march in the water fuck you bill mindset, you're stupid, Secondly, the head of an imaginary military. So I want you to remember bills. Wife asked what the facts you plan mike. Why would you go want to go down there with all these black people year were big shot in the cake, a king? That is the issue that mean that that is the issue. People have

called the great answer. It's going to be different down there, it's gonna be like having a bunch of slaves, I'm going to own them were really cool cool cool cool and those are spelled with case. That's my cool cool cool. Did I mention the Patrick John? Is a black guy or kites like let's do this? Man is a for. Hey. Can I size you for a caller? Was there nothing with original negative from the pigs yeah? You should argue for the fucking pigs anyone who is running, and I let him out

environment. I got a shell got the fucking chagos that you work for me mike brought mike bought three thousand rounds of ammunition at gun, shows wolf. King found them a boat captain who would take the mercenaries to the island. His name was captain MIKE Howell and the ship was the men Jana. Oh demonic. see their, I told them. The purpose of the trip was marina research. Yep we're going to do. Search, our own it, the minerva, did towing solid work, took divers to explore underwater archaeological sites. Health documentary, film workers and research same thing is happening. How was of vietnam that boy he lived on his boat, any new, pretty much everything that went on around the lakefront. When Michael say he was from Alaska and holding an automatic rifle. How wasn't really buying the marine research

story. Here we want to shoot fish, coral and why part of our research. Our are is scene I was in the ocean so starter up. Let's get moving. Do you like peanut butter when we got sandwiches? He asked MIKE what was really going on in my ex. that he wants to take mercenaries down to dominica. He was working for the cia. Alright right, look! Look like listen! When I say I wanted you to help us research, the marina. What I meant is I'm invading an island. We? U in, how the greed averted? Is this plan? sounds go awry had to be let it like it to be one of those rules like sir without question that is one of

the greatest things I've ever heard, and yes I mean it. I will follow you there. I am. I am how far how far well them. Thank you. The next day, how introduce might to his business partner, John Osberg and mike explained the plan. The entire thing was moving forward and believe it. But then, on February nineteenth prime minister eugene Charles addressed the name of dominica. She said a group of quote rejected politicians and their hangers on we're trying to destabilize the country and she d square declared a state of emergency that doesn't help anything. Captain Reid was arrested, In jail, he wrote a note to his friend and co conspirator, major newton. He then gave the note to a traffic officer. Smart That is a good person to give it to promise. You won't open it. You promise, you won't open it

ames, you swear to god. Hey. Give me that pinky hey, give me that pig, barney barney. Look me in the eyes give me that pinky. But what do you say say it a promise that holds so an open letter. Ok, give me I only she did. What are you forgot? What you have written the letter, you idiot the note, explain now. Mike's plan would proceed and what norton should do in including an attack on the jail to release First thing you don't want to do is get me out of here right. it's terrible number one is change. Number one is now get me out, oh yeah and then we'll get moving within either lava the lava. Anyway. The traffic officer took the note to the criminal investigations unit. I didn't see that coming though yup

and Patrick John major newton and several others were arrested. Oh no, the prime minister explained the entire plot to the nation in a second radio address. Oh Jesus, so MIKE switched up his plan. please tell me he just became a cobbler yeah. First, he would break the guys at a jail and then proceed with the with the couple. This is where I fucked up: okay, so he'd break them out of jail and then proceed with those. Couple of guys to then take over the app, so the plan is basically the same. It just has a new first party. Now it's break out the military. Take out all the people I need to make with the original bullshit anyone you need the military leaders to go to prague to promise to pronger. Meanwhile, wolfgang gangs, a lady friend Marian Maguire to dominica check out the situation.

She wasn't that into checking the stuff out idea. A friend said quote, Ah, she saw was a free, caribbean, hotel and births that just picturing, her alike beach day a beach day, she's just I think a crossword puzzle by the pool like I could get used to this april. Twenty fifth nineteen, eighty one all the mercenaries met at howard, Johnson's in baton, rouge. Okay, that's a hot place, I'll see it. The ho JO's bring a gun charges, but two cops were eating at the hotel's restaurant, so they went to the days inn. Hotel instead got how and Osberg were waiting for them at the boat along with another guy named grafton can can I just say, though, if if it You are now eventually meeting on how to take. Over an island at a days inn? Are you not thinking, maybe the plan's losing a little bit of steam? That's where most of what happened? Okay, I just want to make sure that's where the plan

Stalin was EDA yeah, that's true, that's fair! And so, and so is the third guy graft in there when MIKE got there, they went into the cabin and mike opened up his briefcase down nine thousand eight hundred dollars in cash and two hundred short MIKE said, and he promised Hell another ten thousand and he promised Hell ten thousand and told them he'd get them the extra two hundred when they got the oven. Sure, where money will be that's totally reasonable, yeah look at the guy is planning to. Invade in ireland and in each a boat, and he is his two ay and he's too uttered short. It's fine if you re not going to be on a fuckin money, so thank you mike was then told no one could carry guns on the ship. Everything had to be put in a bag to avoid the crew from becoming suspicious mike agreed, never talked about what they would do after Osberg and grafton discuss the next job there lined up wolf said he was gonna open up a cook.

In processing lab on dominica plague said he would have three to five million dollars in five years, just regular dreams from a days in later that night MIKE met with the mercenaries and went over the invasion plan at the days in so we go up. I therefore take it a those sit on the bed. Sorry fuck man additive. can lady come up here today, as I did. She turned shit down inside the fuckin bed. Ma am sorry, hey look at a shower cap. What the fuck are you do just where the shower kept without showering looks funding used a shower carefully looked funny when I just where men do dog is things the thing is playing at a gems. In the fuckin Guess that's why I'm wondering? Can I use that sink that is outside in an awkward position? What kind of mercenary pieces sink? I look fine, just the fuck, you guys dude, where

Are we a fucking invasion force? Are we a bunch of fucking clown, we're not a bunch of fucking clowns, but can I make a suggestion? We hit the vending machine and get a bunch of freedom, cable activity gee? Maybe we do it before the meeting, so you know we'll do it after the fucking meeting a dirty toilet, won't flush with a shower cap, I'm gonna go smoke, cool almost real, it might give our maps and sketches of the police

station sure the next night sketch I can only fucking, imagine yeah, of course, the next night they drove to the meeting place at fort pike state park. Okay, there they were going to get into vans, they would take them to the ship, osberg and graft and shut up and in the two vans one for the guys and one for the guns, Osberg laid down the rules on the ship, they would fall the captain's orders. If the coastguard approached they had to dump everything overboard. Then all the equipment was loaded into one van ammunition, crates, bandoliers, rubber rafts water, jugs, fatigues, first aid kits walkie, talkies shotguns rifle abolish jack tales, a for celebrating pay cut to to a job. That's for sure, going to be good. There were twenty sticks of dynamite, an ammunition box and a grocery bag containing tear gas and hand grenades. There were safety, fuses and blasting caps, wrapped in paper napkins and a cardboard box in christmas. Wrapping paper that held ten electric blasting caps. They had a tub, they had ten twelve gauge,

guns of rigour to twenty three model. Many fourteen, a browning to forty three with a fields go a plainfield m one paratrooper, a remington, thirty six. a sterling a are one. Eighty and eight gwin bush master rifles. You still think, therefore, going to show you something there Joe was funny. I hope that they have to hide all that when they get it on. No, they just have to put it in my containers on the ship to the crew, doesn't see it but yeah they don't they don't have. To I mean it's not gonna be hard. It's going to be in boxes. Okay, don't look at me like that mother fucker, it's all played out there fucking the people going to that guy who the research guys and communal research bach yep, all just a bunch of There's an ear and sample tubes and microscopes stop pushing you're making it too obvious. we just say we're? Definitely side, science, rare for scientific we're here from scientific major? I can sit. Second looks like

like we have guns in the boxes. I wonder why would I think of the box when all that we have all gonna be finished, although, although we ever instruments measuring devices and to think that we have enough guns to take over our country to take over a country whose ever taken our country, why are you they take over country, would have to sit here telling you will these boxes? Dont have guns at em. They dont have dynamite they're, just a bunch of instruments that we are going to use. What we get out there we're scientists and, by the way, what we're at it I would ask any scientific questions- disease or not and could it mean everyone? I think that when pretty well I mean I pray, should to cut it off half way through, but I think up there. I think we got the crew of the crews behind it. I sit on scene, No, I said one word and then it just snowballed- and I agree that was overt. I agree, next time you say we're sciencing. I will then that's where it started from it started from that. Did you bring the dvds there for sure yeah

I should go. Tell the crew that we have dvds Osberg mike given the van with all the weapons when they reached the dock. Two men got out where eightieth agent, Osberg than inform, might produce, boy, why man? The look right. The luck, though, Why, in the other van, all the mercenaries bob pritchard saw HF agent grafton pull out a handgun pritchard quickly pulled out a thirty eight from his waistband and pointed at someone's head, oh god, he doesn't remember whose head he pointed the gun at what so that's it you're. Thinking of when you point the gun, it's our guy

in the back right and then and then and then the guy who's driving the van pulls out a gun. So the guy in the factors whips out his gun, pointed at anybody, said, kill, kill the other bad guy with me all right. Nobody move around! kill the guy you're also try to kill great threatening agent grafton informed pritchard. He was a federal agent. Pritchard said quote what kind of federal agent what bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms, to which pritchard said? Oh shit and gave is gonna grafted. What department

Oh here, you go, and actually I should give them some info from these guys. I'm able to give you before I'm ready to talk, then a gang of officers leapt upon pritchard. It was a big operation with eight eight tf agents, ten f b, I agents eight state police, seven, custom agents and one member of the local with a coastguard vessel, doc nearby, god they're so sure they're getting away with it. At this point to turns out, captain I had not been down with a coup idea. The whole time will be no that's he took to it so fat horsey did. Of course he was like yeah for sure yeah. Yet from woody Let me get all other major. Let's get of one's numbers started. Email list immediately lay down your invasion. Oh you don't wanna go rocks yeah, let's take over dominica, as soon as mike told him that he wanted the ship for a coup. How Maybe they called the fbi and eighty f.

estate agent Osberg was posing as his business partner recording everything that was happening. Oh god, agent grafton was brought in later due to his kkk connections. He'd once infiltrated the klu klux klan quote just to show it could be done. Wow, so he's awesome, yeah the mercenaries donnie Brasco he is the mercenaries were all very surprised at you shipper. They thought the coup was a state department and see a operation. Oh that's right. That's so they were, like you, don't know, shit yeah, what's up I that's cool, that's what we all do in the garage. We all get our guns that point in what's going on, because if the government is going to sponsor cuba, island they're, going to use as much of canadian security guard, yeah, obviously Essentially what we are telling shock and we arrests in her own country black says we thought that the government had it signals cross. We couldn't believe

we were actually going to in trouble here, which is the total shock to us. Wolfgang was adamant that he hadn't broken any laws but right away. I now to be honest, I've done nothing like a lot of these guys did as the staff, but I've been like so clean shrouded, sourcing, yeah that It seemed like you know. These are the bad guys you ve gone to rally. Go I don't even under arrest, my head and I just don't you realize what the situation is and is forever. If anything I shouldn't have rooted for maybe berlin, Wolf gauges pulls out his wallet. Obviously Wolfgang solve is eighty ass. I do have. My aid are severely eta. Maybe you ve heard I do. I'm would both department you oughta divest out of you ate months later, come and attacked police headquarters interminably. The people,

ten people died and nine rewarded. Reed was arrested, major fred, it was also arrested. Newton would eventually be hanged for his attempted coup. Mike's lawyer worked out of deal mike was plead to violating the neutrality act and give up everyone and everything boy that night in the hole. so he broke the news to all the mercenaries india. What no? What? What did why? Ok? kay prosaic grant okay so guys user hours ago. So I told you as a we were working in the state of ana ca and blah blah blah, but so what I did was I turned I, like, I told them everything I said you guys are guys, are fucked so turn, this toilet paper all into a nice, I'm good, but you guys should do something you should do yet we kill you. You should

turn on each other or kill you. You get to kill me as security. Go ahead. Fuck you I'm from vietnam, like I was almost born in the war. You know probably going to kill you: okay, good luck, killing a war, vet, okay, okay, let's all kill him, I'm ready to kill this man might be getting three years. Is instead of a possible fifty. The other mercenaries have been completely fucked by MIKE Perdue. They all started to plead out seven pled guilty mike and Wolfgang got three years. Bob pritchard was sent to a psychiatric evaluation. Chris Anderson open, He wept in court. Ah, ha ha ha! These guys just wanted a card. We his wife, had left in his day had a heart attack. He told the judge quote a mercenaries life is an ever is an ever fit for me, don black pleaded. I sing it.

Our mercenaries knife is not from mercenary life is not for me. My wife left me, my dad is died I am ready to get off. This thing can ride on mercenaries life. Never me done black pleaded not guilty. Mike took a stand against dawn MIKE also gave up the Houston investor J w Kirkpatrick kirkpatrick was. impacted by the fbi for an interview and then he blew his brains out shock on in his car to other investors, face trials but were found not guilty, but that really makes that tiered regret killing himself congressmen wrong. Paul was named by MIKE Perdue, but they could not produce enough evidence to take him to trial. They could not produce it.

Thank you. U, r k K, K, grand dragon don black and Donnie hawkins, who had pledged not guilty, were convicted and sentenced to three years Wolfgang was deported when he was released from prison. Take everybody. Thank you no thank you, I'm out smile vulgar leaves I'm sitting gulch wolf, things. Lady friend, Marian Maguire was imprisoned in dominica, should be for what She was because he was because you what you can return to those who, like me, I'd, have granted on everybody, including the ladys use. Just like all sides. They, king, poor girl, should be sent back to canada after two years. This happened just after there was a field attempt to break out of prison by a friend.

Anderson learn welding in prison and then opened a shop in wichita bra bob pritchard left the K K, K quote a bay myself. I stand a trouble in nigeria. Six might produce, was convicted in a czech fraud scam and sent to prison. For a few months. The f b, I was getting tips. He was still involved in mercenary plots, but cannot find any evidence produce died of hiv in eighteen. Eighty, nine, as a team I don't know if his boyfriend ron Cox, whom he live with, also had the disease. Sorry, oh did I not mention that might produce gay not only that he was gay, but just gay with cox, Cox, you're correct, so he, okay, MIKE's obituary, read quote: he was affiliated with the church of christ and self employed as a truck driver. They really admitted some stuff. Wolfgang came back to the? U s back everyone in the little thin

he set up shop as a pot and coke. Indeed in the south of what he said, he was doing it just a financially help the k k k he was shot to death in two thousand and five by a customer, while a police spokesman spokes It was asked to have an explanation as to why he was in his underwear at three in the afternoon. No, I dont the police spokesman said. I can't explain that ready, Patrick John a minister in the anglican church and to them, seven. He was inducted into the confederation of north central and caribbean football hall of fame for his quote: profound impact on football and the commonwealth of dominica, don black move to florida after prison and now runs the website. Storm fra, storm front.

What is torn from its the biggest cake is the biggest white power website, its huge start, France, where they all go it's their website. Dominica remains one of the least developed islands in the caribbean, and it was named one of the top ten equal tour tourist destinations for two thousand and six louth. That's kind of like the coup of good fellows it's so much worse than ever, but it's like good. They actually did a second big fucking did a crime again major crime from the biggest crimes ever the time. Like the these guys, like it if you compared these guys, like robbed, robbed like a volkswagen beetle, compare to what they did a good fit, but still that. But if I mean they wouldn't I mean it would have been quite as quite a score this. This was called in the press. The bay of pigs and adorable fort as opposed to the bay of pigs, are adorable.

Beautiful? It's a fucking, great story at is really in saying that the turn of the hickey eightieth agents is amazing because you're but that's what's so great about it is like they always they always when they. When they have you, they really let you go up to the fucking edge. They do they really. Let you be like yeah holy shit as much I'm going to be a general as much evidence as possible, because then they can just fucking. Throw me forever laundry like I'm in oh real, quick, one, more thing you under a fucking rest or what say was wow. That's crazy! Well, so it should be yeah. It makes you really it makes you caught it's kind of motivating got there. Do somebody. I look at these guys. Do it shit? What do I say that as a result of in house do so then replied you want an island. Let's move! Do you on,
