The Man Who Broadcast Secrets the Government Tried to Bury

Did Bill Cooper predict 9/11? The story of Behold a Pale Horse, The Hour of the Time and the man who told America not to trust anyone. Want to support me? https://buymeacoffee.com/aporica Cooper said he'd seen a UFO rise from the ocean and read files exposing a secret government. Behold a Pale Horse took his story beyond the UFO circuit. The Hour of the Time carried his warnings across the airwaves. By the end, he was broadcasting from a hill in Arizona, facing arrest and trusting fewer people around him. This Aporica documentary follows Cooper's own recordings, interviews, FBI files and police reports—from Operation Majority and his rise on shortwave radio to his break with Alex Jones, the June 28, 2001 broadcast and his final confrontation with law enforcement. More than two decades later, the tapes still raise the question: what did Bill Cooper really know?
