    A ST. PATRICK’S DAY CELEBRATORY MESSAGE FROM PEARL RIVER, NY

    Quiet Rockland today makes this statement in support of the pending investigation of Southwest Airlines and FAA actions, conducted by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI):

    As in the film ‘Moonstruck’, it is as if Cher just slapped FAA Acting Administrator ‘Bobby’ Sturgell in the face twice, hard, and said ‘Snap Out Of It!’. The arrogance and lawlessness of the current FAA regime is now coming to an end. The FAA house of cards is collapsing. On Sunday night March 9, Quiet Rockland called for a criminal investigation of Southwest Airlines and the FAA, as well as a nationwide boycott of Southwest. One night later (please see below), the media reported that the FBI has commenced a criminal investigation of retaliation and threats made by aeromercantile thugs against airplane safety inspector whistleblowers. Quiet Rockland thanks the FBI for commencing the investigation, and will give the FBI every bit of assistance, support, and cooperation if and as ever asked.

    Quiet Rockland notes that this criminal investigation’s trail may not only lead to the senior-most levels of FAA management but perhaps also point to FAA Acting Administrator Robert A. “Bobby” Sturgell himself. Even if not, the FBI-investigated FAA and Southwest misconduct occurred under Sturgell’s watch. “Bobby” Sturgell is the DelMarVa son of the late J. Edgar Hoover’s former personal secretary Barbara Sturgell. See:
    http://www.bayweekly.com/year99/issue7_22/lead7_22.html
    http://www.TheHappyHarbor.com

    If ANY American ever suggests that FBI’s or USDOJ’s actions are politically-initiated, or anything less than objective and protective of the welfare of American citizens, one need only cite the Southwest-FAA-Sturgell-Hoover pathway to prove how wrong any such skeptic would be. On this St. Patrick’s Day, every American, Irish-American or otherwise, owes a debt of gratitude to the FBI for taking a dramatic further step to keep our skies safe and protect the well-being of those of us on the ground. We look forward to the results of the FBI investigation and the related scheduled April 3, 2008 Congressional hearing at which we expect the aero-perps to be taken down.

    Finally, Quiet Rockland also takes this opportunity to ask that all Americans who have ANY further information implicating FAA, Southwest, or any other aeromercantalist in any threats or retaliation against whistleblowers, or in any other unlawful activity, please come forward now to your most-proximate FBI or other law enforcement office. The text of the CBS 11 News (Dallas) March 10, 2008 article appears below.
