I hadn't thought about Mike Ruppert for some time--a galant, funny man--

And what I find on Googling him is that he supposedly shot himself in the head on the 13th of April, this year.  Oh, and there's a note in his own hand to "prove" his suicide--so fucking obviously dictated under torture, or threat of torture--and two or three pages of op-eds, blog entries and solemn ruminations, obviously bought and paid for (What kind of rock do the CIA's apologists live under?), reasserting that  no, it couldn't possibly have been murder, and that Ruppert had run out of time, and money, and was very, very depressed (as who wouldn't be having proved that the CIA is a criminal, corrupt, rogue agency?).

But, they say, if you want really incredible "suicide," think about Garry Webb, Pulizer Prize winning journalist, who on December 10, 2004, shot himself twice in the head, being overcome with remorse and regret, apparently, for having said about the CIA pretty much the same thing that Mike Ruppert said.
