Cafasso busted and in jail- in Porter County Indiana

2009-01-31T18:13:00.000-08:00

The backstory behind this has something to do with his scamming a workman, leaving a woman behind who is about to leave her house. He used the social security number from a young girl in New Jersey, and was traveling under the name "Rob Stormer".

As per Carteret Con Artist, who is asking for more information. We have been after him for over two years. We are not law enforcement or mental health professionals, but would like to see him get the help he needs so that he stops hurting people; and in particular, taking advantage of women with money.

Make Noise

2008-07-06T14:21:00.000-07:00

Cao says this is Make Noise from the Mitch and Nan Show's cesspool of Obamablogbot minions and trolls. But I'm confused as to which one it is. Is it the sardonic smiling woman or the pot-bellied man?

It is verified by researchers in comments

at Larry Sinclair's blog that this picture is in the public domain, released by Make Noise himself. Or herself, I'm not sure.

The hypocrisy of people who post personal information illegally obtained, who then object to the posting of pictures they themselves have released into the public domain, is glaring and laughable... if you don't include IDIOTIC.

Make Noise's current picture is that of a woman doing needlepoint that says "fuck off" on it. (see below)

Someone please clarify the gender of this poster. The original picture showed two people, not one. And he/she was proud of it, as he/she provided a link to it for the slobbering Obama lemming legions to gawk at.

Make Noise was, in a signature move, sarcastically challenged Larry Sinclair when he said he could find info on the cesspool stalker, so now that he has, and more and more information is coming forward, Make Noise is starting to look like either mentally deranged individual (the woman in the picture), or a stupid boob (like the man in the picture) - or both!

So...the only reasonable conclusion to draw is that we should use the message of the messenger (Make Noise). Because their tactic is shoot the messenger doesn't mean that we should follow suit, now does it?

I think we should give Make Noise's message right back.

I must confess that following this provides immense entertainment value in and of itself.

What about the dog?

2007-05-31T03:23:00.000-07:00

Cafasso asks 'what about the dog', but the only people who would complain that Idema is 'dangerous' are terrorists and the people who have been relentlessly smearing Jack Idema.

The lead on that intitiative, which is smearing Jack Idema, and trying to make sure he doesn't return to the United States, is none other than Joe Cafasso.

Cafasso's exploits with Kathryn Cramer

2007-05-20T09:29:00.000-07:00

As we noted earlier, Kathryn Cramer seems to have a lot of explaining to do about her relationship with Gerry Blackwood AKA Joe Cafasso and exactly when she knew what she claims now that she didn't know. If she had any brains in her head, she would shut up; but instead, she's acting like a woman scorned, going all over the internet planting seeds about what a shameful womanizer Joe Cafasso is.

Kathryn, wake up; the man used you. This is what he does.

Move on, and stop obsessing over him.

sisters, sisters

2007-05-08T02:49:00.000-07:00

Kathryn Cramer left this blog OUT; the most important out of all the 'sister' blogs that she blubbers is 'defaming' Cafasso. From Cao's blog comes an incredibly devastating example of why Wikipedia should be taken with a block of salt:

You are a bald faced liar.

Here is an excerpt from her conversation with Jossi at Wikipedia about edits on Joe Cafasso (see here):

I am of two minds about whether to comment here, since I am not a neutral observer. It is notable and fairly well established that Cafasso and Jack Idema have a feud going.

A feud? The grab from the left is from Kathryn Cramer dot Com. from the sidebar on the right. Click here, and it opens up. Lol…a “feud”; Is that what you call it? The Colonel That Wasn’t stole your computer, lied about who he is, lied about his health, disappeared and turned up in Mississippi and did it to other people, and you put up a ‘call for information’ but it’s Idema and Cafasso that are having a feud? Give me a break.

I would say that the evidence tells me that YOU and Cafasso have a feud going, lol…why are you looking for him, again? Wasn’t it because he lied to you? Doesn’t he lie to everyone? Doesn’t Cafasso ‘have a feud going’ with the WORLD [when people stop believing him]???

Here are few pieces of evidence that can be cited: Idema is known to have co-written Robin Moore’s book The Hunt for Bin Laden (Idema even appers on the cover). (As I recall this is discussed in Robert Young Pelton’s Licensed to Kill.) The book contains an unfavorable discussion of Cafasso. Idema quotes from the book, using it as a reference on his official website ( Superpatriots.us) concerning Cafasso. HOWEVER, if you check the text of the passages Idema quotes, he has rewritten them to claim that Cafasso tried to get him killed. Also, Cafasso was a defendent in one of Idema’s lawsuits. The documents concerning the existence of the law suit are public record on the site of a Los Angeles court. Quotng from public record court docs would be a more appropriate way to document the feud than Caosblog.

Let’s check those passages, shall we? Let’s take a look at the book in question, but let’s also remember how idiotic this woman sounds. Remember, I’m not making up that Cafasso stole her computer, charged an expensive hotel bill on her credit card (which she apparently didn’t check) and that she claims he owes her 20 grand. These are indisputable facts admitted to by Ms. Cramer herself:

I am interested in receiving information concerning the life and activities of former Fox News Military & Counterterrorism Editor Joseph A. Cafasso aka Joe Cafasso, Jay Cafasso, Gerry Blackwood, Gerard Pal Blackwood, Jay Mosca, J. Mosca, James Mosca, Joseph Mosca, Jay Anthony, Tom Adams, and Jake Adams.

He stole my computer and owes me about twenty grand.

Of particular interest are:

* other known aliases
* information concerning debts & unpaid financial obligations
* incidents involving computer equipment or credit cards
* medical conditions
* employment history
* documentation such as photographs, videotapes, audiotapes
* transcripts or other documentation concerning public events he attended
* documents he presented

I’m sure the reason you’re ‘calling for information’ isn’t to ‘defame him’, lol…, right? It’s only anybody else who writes about the guy who is defaming Cafasso, according to you, which puts you in the only privileged position to write about him.

I’m not sure what Cafasso’s being a defendent in one of Idema’s lawsuits has to prove except that since he doesn’t have two pennies to pinch together and is hungry to dip his grubby hands into grants given to Christian ministries, I would imagine he’s pretty angry about that. He reacts very strongly when his lines of BS are no longer accepted or believed by people, we’ve seen that pretty clearly here at his Stuporpatriots blog.

Considering his psychiatric profile, it would seem as though he would be capable of just about anything in retaliation, wouldn’t it? At least to a reasonable person. This is also from your website:

At present he is apparently a very unhappy man, as Mendehall Ministries in Mendenhall, Mississippi (near Jackson) seems to have failed to appreciate his recent involvement in their finances as Director of Development. I’m told he feels very sorry for himself and claims the pressing need for surgery & a lawsuit.

There is so much evidence out there that demonstrates that Cafasso is a very dishonest person, but now, we’re supposed to set all that aside in the case of Jack Idema and listen to Psychos R US.; Cramer, and Cafasso; over the evidence:

Clearly this is another of the numerous examples of Cramer’s lies and defamation of me and Idema and frankly, I’m getting sick and tired of it showing up again and again. Back to the entry at Wikipedia:

Though, in general, I disagree with Jossi’s stance on blogs, Caosblog and its cousins (Tracking Cafasso etc.) are intentionally defamatory of Cafasso. While some of what they have to say about Cafasso is true and sourced, they co-mingle it defamatory nonsense with fact and like Idema they sometimes rewrite material that seems sourced.

Interesting, Kathryn. You mean like in the book “The Hunt For Bin Laden”, right here?

The quote is DIRECTLY OUT OF THE BOOK, you stupid b*** but if you have the first edition printing, which was rushed to press, you won’t see it. Subsequent versions, including the paperback and the MacMillan version, all have that quote EXACTLY AS QUOTED, and nobody at the Superpatriots website rewrote anything.

Where is the comingling of defamatory statements? I missed that. Just as in the case of the photo album she said I had of her son- that didn’t exist, just as in the case of claiming I was stalking her and her family, and just as in the case of Michael Teague, Mookie Spicoli and all the other examples I’ve talked about here, Kathryn Cramer is not only off-base, she is lying. Either that, or she’s as dumb as a rock, but either way, the results would be the same.

Here is a dingbat that is seriously drawing conclusions on the basis of lies out of Joe Cafasso’s rotting mouth. It was one thing when she didn’t know his identity. But it’s completely another thing now that she knows who he is. what he’s done to numerous people, and is still standing by it. This is amazingly stupid. And Cramer works as a ‘researcher’ for Wolfram Research?

The reason the quote was not complete in the first Random House editions was because the lawyers were confirming the authenticity of the actual taperecordings and matching Cafasso’s voice. They even got outside legal counsel opinions on it to make sure they were covered.

Cafasso lies, Kathryn. You’d think that you would have realized that by now, since he STOLE YOUR COMPUTER and charged a huge hotel bill on your American Express card under completely false pretenses. Cafasso raises hell over complete fabrications-just ask the people at Mendenhall Ministries in Mississippi. You’re fully aware of that, you swallowed the Gerry Blackwood with the patch over his eye story…lol - the “Beyond the Call” story, and numerous others, which don’t exactly paint this guy as a bastion of truth telling, yet for some reason you’re willing to believe he’s telling the truth about Idema.

With all that I’ve put up about Idema, you’d think that someone with even a small pea-brain would be able to figure out that if he was what Cafasso says he is, he would easily have been dead by now. But no, Cafasso is a liar about everything except Idema.

Lie in one, lie in them all.

I know it’s a lot to expect from Kathryn Cramer, but instead of listening to Joe Cafasso’s sob stories, she really ought to get her facts straight.

Kathryn Cramer has absolutely no business editing Wikipedia. Cramer should have been STOPPED from writing her own bio, her husband’s bio, putting up information on Idema, putting up information on Cafasso, and linking to herself. She should not be allowed to create accolades to herself out of thin air. Cramer is entertaining complete fantasies about her alleged literary prowess, which is little more than bad science fiction writing. She has a completely out-of-control imagination; not to mention, an amazing sense of hubris and inability to face reality. Someone with a fertile imagination who can’t discern between reality and fantasy needs some serious psychological help, in my amateur opinion.

But that is where she’s exactly like Joe Cafasso and the two of them completely deserve each other.

There is no greater satisfaction than looking at Cramer - wearing that ugly green bathrobe with mud on her face. That is a picture that I will remember for time immemorial.

The Free Jack Idema Blogburst

One aspect in the case of illegally-imprisoned US Special Forces soldier Jack Idema that bears looking at in detail is the work he was doing in Afghanistan in the weeks prior to his arrest.

To listen to the media, Karzai and US State Department tell it, you could be forgiven for thinking that Jack and his men were just trawling Afghanistan for people they suspected of links to terrorism in a quite random fashion; that they were common bounty hunters and their operation was amateurish. In fact, Task Force Sabre 7 (Jack’s team) were highly-professional, and focussed on preventing a group of Islamofascists from carrying out a series of devastating attacks.

The following is from a press release Jack handed to the media at his August-September 2004 ‘trial’. Although it fully explains his team’s mission, and its importance, no one in MSM ran the story:

After contacting the Pentagon we acted, immediately deploying to Afghanistan, where, working with our former Northern Alliance allies, we captured first Ghulamsaki, the terrorist the FBI was informed of previously, and then subsequently captured 95% of the entire al-Qaida and Hezb-i-Islami terrorist operation cell behind the plot. In four different operations and raids, we captured terrorists, explosives, detonators, and vehicles that were to be used in the terrorist plot.
The plot involved the assassination of the Afghan President, Minister of Defense, Minister of Education, two ambassadors, and the leaders of Massoud’s Jamiat Party. Had any of them been successful it would have resulted in certain civil war and the deaths of untold Afghan and American lives.

Alongside these assassinations, the terrorist cell Idema was hunting also had big plans when it came to the US troops stationed at Bagram Airbase — Their intention was to turn one of the daily fuel deliveries (that is, four tankers laden with gasoline) into huge firebombs. Here’s Jack’s description of this planned-attack:

Think about this: Four fuel tankers driving into Bagram Air Base (fuel tankers are constantly daily arriving at Bagram) laden with gas and explosives as they passed through the gates. The explosives would never be discovered as the terrorists were using a combination of plastic explosives and incendiary explosives which American bomb dogs could not detect.
The result would have been flaming bodies of hundreds of American soldiers in a scene that would have dwarfed the Beirut Marine barracks bombing and brought back the vision of burning victims plunging to their deaths on 9/11.

My President said, in September 2001, that all Americans were now soldiers, in the war on terror.

He called upon each of us to do whatever we could to stop terror and save American lives. I have done that.

For his trouble, Jack Idema was falsely accused, arrested, tortured, show-trialed and illegally-imprisoned. We need to bring this man home. Now.

So what can we do? Well, anyone reading this with their own blog can sign up for the weekly Free Jack Idema Blogburst by emailing Cao or Rottweiler Puppy for details. I’d urge everyone to do this, as we’re still terribly short on takers. If you want to know more about the story, Cao’s Blog has a large section devoted to Jack Idema. There’s also a timeline here, and, of course, a huge amount of information is available over at SuperPatriots, without whose work none of us would have learned about Jack’s story.

Deniable Agent: Undercover In Afghanistan

2006-11-19T07:25:00.000-08:00

And so it would seem Jack Idema's tale pulls under the US government's heading of 'plausible deniability', with the release of this blockbuster book which is our version of it here in the UK. You wonder why it is that I am not inclined to be reticent with regard to what happened to Jack Idema and the other Americans who were just collataral damage to the Americans who wanted to destroy him? It's because his story is among those in a long line of men who stood to accomplish a mission at the behest of their country and were betrayed by the very entities that placed them there.

This book gives us the big picture the media leaves out. This is what happened to many in Afghanistan who took this on and made the personal sacrifices to fight terrorism, regardless as to what country they called home. Is not only the American Government which betrayed our allies in the WoT, it is sadly also true of Tony Blair, Parliament and the M16.

Collin Berry's family thought he'd travelled to Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban to market low-cost modular housing. The truth of the matter is stranger than fiction; because Berry is a former soldier who'd been recruited by British intelligence to buy back weapons systems from the Mujahideen during their struggle against the Soviets. Berry was involved in reconnaissance missions in remote mountain villages where he witnessed the ravages of decades of war. In Kabul, his attempts to train Afghan locals in the spirit of the M16 and international special forces came to an horrific end when the mission was compromised, many massacred before they could reach their target. Dissilusioned with the work he was doing and concerned for his life, Berry prepared to leave Afghanistan.

Whilst packing his bags, two armed Afghans arrived at his hotel room. A meeting was arranged. By the time it had finished both Afghans were dead and Berry himself was seriously wounded. In "The Deniable Agent", Colin Berry gives us a riveting insight into the covert world of intelligence. He also finally reveals the truth about what happened in the Intercontinental Hotel that night.

Days later in a dingy room he had electrodes attached to his feet. "Admit you're an American spy," snapped the sinister general interrogating him.

"I shouted ‘I'm not... F***!' The pain as the current went through me was excruciating," says Berry. His torture went on for six months during which he was caged in a dark 4ft by 8ft cell with an earth floor and no bed or toilet.

When he attacked an officer and tried to escape, he was kicked to a pulp by other guards and then whipped across the back with a metal cable.

"I don't know how long this beating went on, but I lost consciousness," says Berry. He was so badly beaten he ended up in hospital where, at last, British Embassy officials visited him.

A deal was done with the Afghanistan government and Berry was released. His role has never been acknowledged by MI6.

"I'm not James Bond, but I depended on the people I was working for to come and get me out before things got too bad," says Berry.

"They didn't. The missions were real—but the back-up wasn't. And I paid for it."

First Page:
CHAPTER ONE

A SOLDIER OF THE QUEEN

The first thing you need to know about me is that I'm not James Bond. I was a soldier for the best part of 12 years, I've worked in the public sector, and I've run my own businesses. While I've completed plenty of military courses in OP work (observation) and surveillance, I've never been trained as a spy or a secret agent. I got into that by accident, and I've had a lot of time since then to wish that I hadn't.

And part of the reason for that is that however bad things got for Bond, whether he was about to get his knackers lasered off or be thrown in a shark-filled pool, he knew that someone, somewhere, was looking out for him. In my case, by the time I found myself lying on the operating table in the War Victims Hospital in Kabul, with a surgeon who looked just like the Swedish chef from The Muppet Show scouring out the dead flesh from the bullet wound in my abdomen, I was pretty sure that the people who had got me into that situation weren't going to be crying too many tears of sorrow that it had happened.

At the end of the Bond films, more often than not, when Bond has emerged from the ruins of the villain's secret underground lair, battered but unbowed and clutching hold of the bikini-clad love interest, Felix Leiter and the CIA are there to whisk him away in a boat or helicopter - home in time for tea and medals.

Well, that didn't happen with me either. The American spooks who pulled me out of the hotel room could have taken me to the US Embassy, or to one of the ISAF compounds around Kabul, or even to Bagram Airbase. They knew me well enough: we'd been working together for months. But they didn't. They dumped me at the War Victims Hospital, where they knew the Afghan authorities could get hold of me. And they left me there.

Thanks a fucking bunch, guys. You must feel really proud of that one.

The Counter Terror Group has their own Free Jack store at Cafe Press. You can find several designs there, and there is certain to be one there to your liking. Buy one for yourself, and and a little t-shirt for your dog! This is sure to get Joe Cafasso's dander up; he wants to be the celebrity. He wants to be the special forces soldier! So pass this is on!

The situation for Jack is pretty much the same since the last time we blogged on this subject, except there was another attempt at 'getting' him out of there to the cell that awaits him at At Tawab Keef prison near the US Embassy in Kabul.

The United States Embassy in Kabul ordered the Afghans to continue holding them after their March 2005 "innocent" verdict. The Afghan Embassy in Washington, D.C. told the women in blue burkas who demonstrated for their release this past September 11th that their continued imprisonment was 'political' and that the American Embassy would be responsible for their release. But the American Embassy had all along been denying them water, denying them attorney-client privileged correspondence, denying them mail to and from their families, and denied them passports when they were requested over a year ago. The American Embassy is treating them as though they're not even citizens; and what's worse; not giving them what is due them according to the Constitution, the Geneva Conventions, and all the rest.

What's unfortunate is that Brent Bennett and Jack Idema are now 'men without a country'. And those of us involved in watching this story would like to see their passports issued to them, and their rights as citizens restored. All they did was pursue Gulbideen Hekmatyar and his followers, well-known terrorists who were attempting to assassinate some well-known figures in Massoud's United Front.

So we end this with a call to the American state department, the department of justice and the rest, to Free Jack Idema, and restore Brent Bennett's ability to return to the United States.

So what can we do? Well, anyone reading this with their own blog can sign up for the weekly Free Jack Idema Blogburst by emailing Cao or Rottweiler Puppy for details. I'd urge everyone to do this, as we're still terribly short on takers. If you want to know more about the story, Cao's Blog has a large section devoted to Jack Idema.

After several, tense, weeks, those of us who’ve been concerned as to the wellbeing of Jack Idema’s right-hand man, Brent Bennett, can finally relax a little.

Brent appeared, via sat-phone, on Jack’s weekly radio broadcast two days ago. In spite of everything he’s been put through, Brent was in good spirits, sharing a joke with Jack about how Nina the dog took a bite out of one of Karzai’s creepy, Taliban-sympathising guards. While it’s certainly good to hear from Brent after nearly a month of silence, however, he is still forced to remain in hiding, and can only say that he’s ’somewhere in the Middle East’. Meanwhile, Jack Idema remains holed-up in Pulacharke Prison, threatened with a move into solitary confinement away from his Northern Alliance guards, and with President Karzai’s goons still hovering nearby.

What makes this situation so intolerable, of course, is that both Jack and Brent were found Not Guilty of all charges against them at an appeal way back in February 2005. Here’s Tawous Noorzai, Deputy Commander of Jack’s block in Pulacharke, writing under oath, explaining why why Jack and Brent are still being criminalised:

I have attended their court hearings and the secret trial that was conducted in the Second Court [Court of Appeals]. I was present during the decision of the Court of Appeals (February 2005 Christian calendar), where all three men were declared innocent by a panel of three Chief Judges and three visiting judges, including the two Religious Judges who called their arrest a terrible crime against justice in Afghanistan. I personally was present in February or March 2005 (Christian calendar), when the Chief Judge, who had just returned from a vacation in America paid for by the American Embassy, said that although they were innocent, he needed to get permission from the US Consul before signing their release order. It was supposed to be done the next day and the judges were to call a press conference and announce their verdict and issue an apology from the Supreme Court. Several days later, I heard the Chief Judge, Ismail Abed, tell Mr. Jack that he could not release them because the American Embassy had “worked behind the curtain” and ordered the Court to stop their release.

Almost two years later, Jack and Brent continue to exist in this state of legal limbo — one imprisoned, the other hounded into hiding — on account of a crime that not even the Karzai government or the U.S. State Department believe they committed.
