John Kettler is a former military aerospace intelligence analyst with life-long interest in a broad range of subjects not commonly covered by the mainstream media. These subjects include UFOs, ETs/EDs, history's many mysteries, conspiracies and coverups, military affairs and deep black politics. He has dedicated himself to researching and writing on these subjects, and has done so for a number of years, starting first with Atlantis Rising and now with his own site and publications.

John is also a trained psychic (Sylva Mind Control graduate) and earth sensitive (a "gift" he wishes on no one else, including his detractors), and one of the few people on earth in regular contact with the Liberation Forces (LF) – the coalition of off planet races and groups working hard to save Earth from the forces of mindbogglingly ancient and cosmic evil, and from it's own large crop of psychopathic villains, many of whom hold highly respected positions in government and industry.

Despite the fact John suffers from debilitating health issues at times and is on disability, JKI has still managed to scoop the major media on a number of vitally important stories, including Putin's use of nukes in Ukraine and Israel's use of same in Syria, to name just a few, not to mention shocking revelations about secret UFO wars in the Pacific Ocean and the use of super-secret stealth technology to let North Korea know to stop messing with the U.S. and it's allies.

Despite these remarkable achievements (and many others) and perfectly respectable traffic levels, JKI has been anything but a cash-rich operation. In fact, it has struggled to stay afloat since it's inception, in large measure because of it's namesake's desire to share his stunning revelations and research freely.

Unfortunately, the costs associated with running a site requiring an expensive virtual private server, state-of-the-art security, maintenance and backup software – not to mention such prosaic niceties as modest marketing efforts, covering the light bill and office costs of it's webmaster – is taxing for a site with a traditional monthly operating budget of nil.

The original game plan had been for JKI to be ancillary to John's books. The idea was to get as many of those out as possible within a short period of time. But a combination of factors conspired to prevent this.

First, the site quickly became a focal point for those wanting to know more about the broad range of "deep, black" subjects John researches and writes on, particularly the Liberation Forces. It required (and still does) a significant amount of it's author's limited creative energies every day. At the same time, John went through a number of difficult domestic situations, and saw his health – always tenuous – go through some significant (and at one point, life-threatening) gyrations.

These issues, combined with veiled and direct threats on it's author's life, cyber attacks on the site and Facebook page, and the normal technical problems associated with a popular website, have taken their toll.

Still, in an effort to stabilize the site's fiscal situation, if nothing else, JKI launched a series of new initiatives, including a private, executive intelligence newsletter (JKI/SPECIAL ACCESS), renewed work on a number of formerly stalled books titles, and the upcoming launch of a regular podcast.

The recent Charter Membership drive (late Jan, 2015) nearly sold out it's 50 slots (and probably would have, if not for software glitches). An exciting development to be sure, but one which only makes inroads into the overhead and does not cover it.

Supporting JKI goes a long way towards assuring that it's author and webmaster are not required to dig into their own threadbare pockets to keep a site going which, by all lights, should be inundated with supporters. It allows John to continue his researches and writing. Reduced stress over fiscal matters means more and better content, not to mention better health for it's namesake. It also ensures a fast-loading, trouble-free site, a situation which is better for all concerned.

Thank you for your consideration.
