My father made a statement to me many years ago, when I first began talking about AJ. He said "beware the crusader". You may not always know what their intentions may be. Be careful what you hitch your wagon to. I wrote it off with not much thought, as young men sometimes do with fatherly advice.

These last couple of days have made me reflect on those words, and I am going to share with you what I know, and I think about the situation.

I am going to try and tell this story without using names, as they have spoken to me in confidence, and I don't want to betray their trust. I also don't want a lawsuit from Jones, who calls me a friend when he is on air, but you never know. I feel like his token black friend, even though I am not black. (It's a long story) We don't hang out on a regular basis, but he always likes to be seen with me when we're in the same place, for reasons I can't explain for fear of giving away my personal identity to him.

I have grown up in Austin, and have watched AJ since he started on a small Public Access Community TV station. Back then it was just him, and another guy who worked the cameras and the soundboard during the show. This gentleman worked his tail off for AJ for free, many times having to pay expenses out of his own pocket, without being reimbursed. He did this free work because he is a truly great Texan, and American Patriot. So was Alex for that matter.

They had a very small audience back then of only a few dozen die hard patriots. I was not one of those people in the beginning. We would come home from the bars and see him on late night public TV, and make fun if him. It took a long time to gain my trust,

I have spent a good portion of the day speaking to friends that have also known AJ for many, many years, so that I could reaffirm some of what I have been thinking. These people have worked for, and written for, and known Alex (flaws and all) for a very long time.

I also received a few calls from loyal listeners, that were furious about the Sheen piece, and the buildup campaign.

Here is the truth about AJ as best I can tell you.

1) Is he a Zionist or Vatican agent ?

Absolutely not. If anything he is a slave to his hideous wife Violet ( Kelly) Jones. I have only met her once, and she was so rude to me and my wife at the time, I was completely blown away. If there is anyone running the show, it is her. She, according to those who have worked closely with her is one of the most vile creatures to ever walk the Earth.
He ( supposedly) hates her guts, and the reason he stays in the studio until 3 am is to be as far away from her as much as possible. She is a very controlling, materialistic, Ebay addict, that has to have more money, all the time. He seems like he lives just to support her ebay habit. She is an ex PETA radical, and having dated one of those, I can relate to the craziness they can exhibit. They're often beautiful women, that are a bit on the coo coo side.

2) Is he an egomaniac that has become cut throat, just like the elite he is going after?

Yes. He has used his influence over Ted at GCN to get Jack Blood fired, and Jeff Rense fired. He has a few high powered lawyers on retainer that will attack anyone that threatens to tarnish his name, and mini empire. He may say he is a humble country boy, but there is another side.

3) Does he like to share the spotlight with anyone that helped him get to where he is today?

No, in fact he has treated some of them like dogs, and if he could say that he broke into Bohemian Grove alone, he would. In fact he tried one night on C2C, until George cut him off after about an hour and said "wasn't so and so with you"?

4) Did he think this Charlie Sheen thing was the biggest thing he has done on 14 years?

I think yes. Alex is a social climber, and has gotten there on the backs of some great hard working people that gave their all for the cause, so that he could build the show, and spread the word. He is like a Hollywood, star struck teenager, that thinks rubbing elbows with some of these folks makes him something more than he really is..

5) Was him shutting the comments section off, really to save bandwidth?

I don't know. It seemed fishy on the surface, but maybe someone with familiarity with these type of wordpress etc. type websites could chime in, and offer their expertise.

6) Do I think the disclaimer being left off, was a screw up?

Once again, I don't know for sure. Supposedly it was cut off when it was posted, because there was a picture that separated the text at the end, and then they couldn't get back in a portion of the time to correct it, because the servers were supposedly slammed.

I think that it was a legit screw up, and technically if you'd have clicked on the bibliography link at the bottom ( as many good researchers would) which I didn't, because the disclaimer was there by the time I got to read it, you'd have seen a SECOND version which had the disclaimer.(according to abovetopsecret.com link)

Maybe it was a test to see who would look at the entire picture, rather than just react without looking into it further, He says that wasn't his intention. It was not so much of a big deal to me. I knee jerked, but not that hard, and I have a good reputation, so it was easy to maintain integrity with the couple of people I told before it became such an issue.

7) Does he make a comfortable living doing what he does, and employ about 20 people?

Yes, He lives in a nice house, and has nice things, and is able to support his children comfortably. So what. Sue him. What is he supposed to wear a burlap robe, and live the life of a monk? He worked his butt off to build his show and his site, from nothing. He has dumped on many of the people who helped him get there, but he still deserves it from all of his own hard work.

Does occasionally say hundreds when he should say dozens, or thousands when he should say hundreds?

Yes, but that is about all your going to find on him regarding his info. Otherwise I invite you to call him out on whatever he is lying about.

9) Has he gotten a bit drunk off of his recent success, and become a bit self destructive?

According to some on the inside, yes.

I do not write this to smear AJ. I write it simply to relay that he is an imperfect human, just like the rest of us. He has his flaws, and is going to make mistakes, just like the rest of us. If you dealt with the research and information he does on a daily basis, you might be a little crazy too.

I saw many people ride out on their white horses yesterday and act like they have never told a lie, never exaggerated. never sensationalized, or never done anything wrong.

The bottom line is this.

There are many different voices on the radio and internet, as far as experts go. Webster Tarpley, David Ray Griffen, G. Edward, Mike Ruppert, and so many others,

No one has the ability to motivate, and move people to act like AJ does. I have seen the listeners raise almost 70 grand in one day, for Sen. Dean Barkley on short notice. I have seen him crash servers, shut down newscasts, police stations, and many other very impressive things. No one has the reach, and ability to get things done like his listeners and crew do.

Also, we are bombarded EVERY day with lies, propaganda, and deceit by the MSM in every form, from the sinister people that own and run them. From every direction we are attacked with deception, and trickery.
9/11 was at the very least allowed to happen, and our liberties are being stripped rapidly, on a daily basis. The police state is ever encroaching. They are talking about Martial Law, and using the military to "assist" with mandatory vaccinations, with poisons that we know are dangerous.
We are in danger, our children, grandchildren, and loved ones are in danger, and we know it.

If I was in AJ's position, I would be trying everything in my power to spread the warning. That is essentially what Ron Paul wants us to do, is get the message out to as many people as possible, as quickly as possible.

You may choose to stop supporting him, but I would ask myself beforehand, if I am in a position to throw stones in a glass house before I do though.

I, however,am going to give the benefit of the doubt on this one and continue to support the money bombs, and donate to keep the interviews, and the information flowing. I know for a fact that it is being used to expand his facilities, and be able to reach more people. If the country did .025% of what his listeners, and activists in general do, we would not be facing the problems we are today..

Finally, there is so much we need to be focused on, and unified on, that there is not a whole lot of time to act IMO.

So I say "beware the crusader", but know what you have in your arsenal, and be prepared to use it, and support it, at every chance. Our country's future depends on it. Our lives may depend on it.
