"I believe you've written an exceptionally important book, one that is not only relevant to your audience but also deeply engaging for me." (MKBusiness) "Your book will undoubtedly serve as a valuable resource for current and future citizens and residents of the USA. It provides crucial insights into their countries' governance and history, and it will help many understand the complexities and the stakes involved." (MKBusiness) This book/archive documents the long-standing efforts of John Wilson to hold the DOJ and FBI to account. It's a chilling account of political retribution as stark and dystopian as any in Kafka. It follows FBI retribution after a work report Wilson authored in March 1996 as a Wall Street mining analyst critical of US mining behemoth Freeport-McMoRan's activities at the Grasberg mine in West Papua, Indonesia. At the time, the company was under investigation by the US State Department following eye-witness allegations it was involved in the killing of Indigenous protestors. At least seven other professionals were targeted at this time in retribution for their work critical of Freeport. The federal insurance agency OPIC had recently cancelled Freeport's political risk policy citing environmental concerns. It was a major embarrassment for Freeport and the first time in OPIC's 25-year history that it had canceled a policy. Henry Kissinger (former US Secretary of State) and James Woolsey (former CIA Director) were advisors to Freeport in 1996. They were in Washington DC desperately lobbying to have Freeport's rescinded policy re-instated. Wilson reveals how the FBI allegedly used covert surveillance, manipulation, and gaslighting to target him. The book draws parallels to Kafkaesque themes, portraying the FBI as an institution capable of undermining democratic values. The book-archive series consists of both narrative elements and a detailed appendix with court documents and other evidence backing Wilson's claims. While the agency has been credited with protecting national security and solving high-profile criminal cases, the untold story is also one of unchecked power and secrecy. Through his narrative, Wilson portrays the FBI as a powerful entity capable of overreach, acting beyond its mandate of law enforcement and stepping into personal and political arenas. As undercover agent, Steve Garber said to Wilson, most people in America don't even realize they've been targeted by the FBI. Western intelligence agencies frequently covertly target professionals, those who speak out, or protest, against establishment interests, typically on business and human rights issues. Through letters, Declarations and court documents, Wilson recounts FBI tactics to target "dissidents" that include the use of secret surveillance, cancel culture, and gas lighting - furtive activities that undermines American democracy. Adding a twist to the tale, and background on the FBI's secretive programs, John Wilson's long-term girlfriend at the time was a professional environmentalist and an undercover FBI agent. It was also one of his key relationships the FBI targeted. Note: The book comprises around 50 pages of background and summary narrative in the front, and an extensive archive-appendix in the back (from page 62) that contains supporting documents and records.
