Webster Tarpley

Webster Griffin Tarpley is an author, lecturer, and critic of US foreign and domestic policy. He maintains that the events of 9/11 were engineered by the military industrial complex. He envisions a model of false flag terror operated by a rogue network of independent operatives in the privatized military intelligence sector and corporate media.

Education

Tarpley earned an AB at Princeton University in 1966 in English and Italian, summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa. Fulbright Scholar at University of Turin, Italy. Master of Arts in humanities from Skidmore College.

Career

In 1986 Tarpley attempted to run on the platform of Lyndon LaRouche in the New York State Democratic Party primary for the U.S. Senate, but was ruled off the ballot because of a defect in his nominating petitions.^[1]. He was a frequent host of "The LaRouche Connection" described as "a news and information cable television program produced by" LaRouche's Executive Intelligence Review News Service.^[2]

The exposé of the Bush family.

Tarpley first gained attention for co-authoring, with Anton Chaitkin, ("history editor of Executive Intelligence Review") a 1992 book on George H.W. Bush, George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography, which was published by Executive Intelligence Review, run by Lyndon LaRouche.^[3] He has expounded the "Versailles Thesis" laying the blame for the great wars of the 20th century on intrigues by Britain to retain her dominance. He gained experience as a political operative during his years with the LaRouche movement but broke away in the mid-1990s.

In 2005, Tarpley's 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA gained a following. On October 7 2006, Amazon.com's top non-fiction book reviewer, Robert David Steele, called it "the strongest of the 770+ books I have reviewed here at Amazon." Tarpley speaks at length about the themes in his book during an interview in the film Oil, Smoke, Mirrors.

Starting March, 2006, Tarpley had a weekly talk radio show called World Crisis Radio for Republic Broadcasting Network. Following a split between Wes Perkins and John Stadtmiller in January 2007, Tarpley apparently left RBN and moved to Genesis, where he presents the Thursday edition of World Crisis Radio. The format remains as a "world intelligence roundup", quite similar to his RBN show.

Tarpley is a member of the world anti-imperialist conference Axis for Peace, of Scholars for 9/11 Truth and of a research Netzwerk of German 9/11 authors founded in Sept. 2006.
