THIS IS A SHORT VIDEO OF THE ISLAND I BOUGHT IN 1997 NAMED NAVASSA WEST INDIES WHICH IS 120 MILES SOUTH OF CUBA, 60 MILES EAST OF JAMAICA AND 21 MILES WEST OF HAITI. THIS IS PART 1 OF THE VIDEO. LOOK FOR PART 2 AND MAYBE 3. I BOUGHT THE ISLAND FROM PROFESSOR GERALD PATNODE WHO TAUGHT ECONOMICS AT JOHN HOPKINS U. IN MARYLAND. HIS GREAT GRANDFATHER WAS AN OWNER OF THE ISLAND IN 1900. I HAVE A SUPER WEB SITE ABOUT THIS. THIS ISLAND WAS NICKNAMED "DEVILS ISLAND" IN THE 1800'S. THERE IS A CRASHED MILITARY PLANE ON THE ISLAND, A RAILROAD TRENCH, 32 OLD STONE HOMES, MEETING HALL, HUGE LIGHTHOUSE (NOT WORKING), WILD GOATS THE SIZE OF PONIES, 20 MILLION SEA BIRDS AND A HUGE NATURAL HOLE GOING DOWN 220 FEET TO THE SEA IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ISLAND. CONGRESSMAN RON PAUL OF TEXAS SUGGESTED HE AND I CREATE OUR OWN GOVERNMENT THERE. I WAS ASKED TO MEET HIM AT ONE OF HIS AIDS HOMES TO DISCUSS THE MATTER. I WENT. I SUED AMERICA ON MY OWN OVER BOTH MY REAL ESTATE RIGHTS AND GUANO FERTILZER MINING RIGHTS IN US DISTRICT COURT IN D.C. THE CASE HAS BEEN 'SET ASIDE WITHOUT PREJUDICE WHICH MEANS I CAN REOPEN THE CASE AT ANYTIME. I NEED A LAWYER NOW. THE ISLAND WAS FIRST DISCOVERED BY CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS'S MEN IN 1510. IN THE 1600'S PIRATES LIVED IN WOODEN HOUSES ON THE ISLAND AND IN 1857 A GUANO CLAIM WAS MADE AND 200+ BLACK SLAVES WORKED THE GUANO FOR THEIR WHITE MASTERS. IN 1880 OR SO THEY RIOTED AND KILLED SOME OF THE WHITE MEN WITH AXES. THE GUANO WAS SHIPPED TO A TWON IN NORTH CAROLINA WHICH THE OWNERS OF THE ISLAND NAMED 'NAVASSA.' I HAVE VISITED NAVASSA, N.C. AND SPOKE WITH SOME OF THE KIND CITIZENS AND TOLD THEM OF THEIR ROOTS. THEY DID NOT KNOW ABOUT MY ISLAND AND THEIR HISTORY. IN 1934 AMERICA ILLEGALLY BUILT A LIGHTHOUSE ON THE ISLAND AND IN 1997, AMERICA ABANDONED THE LIGHTHOUSE AND GAVE THE ISLAND TO ME THROUGH THE COAST GUARD AND GSA. THEN MY WONDERFUL GOVERNMENT TRIED TO TAKE THE ISLAND BACK. AMERICA NEVER OWNED IT. IN THE 1970'S THE CIA WENT THERE TO SEE IF NUCLEAR SUBS COULD BE HIDDEN UNDERNEATH THE ISLAND IN THE HIDDEN CAVES JUST AS THE RUSSIANS DID IN UKRAINE AT BAKALVA IN CREMEA. THEN I CAME ALONG. I WANT TO MAKE A MOVIE ABOUT THE ISLANDS HISTORY. I HAVE WRITTEN MANY PRODUCERS BUT NO ONE EVER WROTE BACK. I HAVE BEEN INTERVIEWED BY DOZENS OF MEDIA. STORIES HAVE APPEARED ABOUT ME AND MY ISLAND IN NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES AND EVEN ON FRENCH TV. THE ISLAND IS SOLID VERY VALUABLE SEA BIRD FERTILIZER. I HAVE GUANO MINING CLAIMS ON TWO OTHER GUANO ISLANDS NOT THAT FAR FROM NAVASSA AND HAVE FILED MY LEGAL CLAIMS WITH THE SEC. OF STATE IN D.C. I AM THE FIRST AMERICAN IN 100 YEARS TO USE THIS OLD BUT VALID LAW CALLED THE 'GUANO ACT OF 1856.' THE REPUBLICAN SIDE OF CONGRESS (I RAN FOR CONGRESS TWICE) PROMISED ME MY OWNERSHP AND GUANO RIGHTS WOULD BE UPHELD AND THAT THEY WOULD HOLD FULL HEARINGS ON THE MATTER WITH ME BEING THE PRIME PARTICIPANT. CONGRESSMAN DON YOUNG WAS ONE OF THOSE MAKING ME THE PROMISES. MY OWN CONGRESSMAN, DUNCAN HUNTER FROM SAN DIEGO, REFUSED TO EVEN TAKE MY CALLS LET ALONE REPRESENT ME. WHAT A JERK HE IS. THERE ARE SHIPWRECKS EVERYWHERE AROUND NAVASSA AND THE OTHER 2 ISLANDS. THERE IS BURIED PIRATE TREASURE ON THE ISLAND AS WELL AS THE BONES OF CHRISTOPHER COLUMBU'S SAILORS WHO DIED THERE. UNDERWATER VISIBILITY IS THE BEST I HAVE SEEN ON EARTH. ONE SHIPWRECK THERE IS THE "FERNGARTH' CIRCA 1934 HAS EXPENSIVE WINE. 115 FEET DEEP. I AM THINKING OF SELLING SOME OF THE ISLANDS 1200 ACRES. IT WOULD MAKE A GREAT RESORT. AN OBSERVATORY WOULD BE NICE THERE AS WELL...... OR A MISSLE BASE :-) OR WHAT ABOUT PUTTING MUSLIM TERRORITS THERE? THEY COULD NOT ESCAPE!!
