** THREE STARS **But the author accomplished what multiple stalking victims only DREAM about - he penetrated street level citizen groups and rode with them as they carried out harassment assignments. This book is likely to be very helpful for targets who are forced to deal with skeptical family, friends, co-workers, and local authorities. It is definitely a breakthrough in the cause of exposing and stopping these citizen groups who operate freely, while law enforcement only gives their lowest ranking street level members a slap on the wrist now and then (while police deny such crimes happen to targets who complain.) If a multiple stalking target can comfortably afford the book, I'd give it a definite "buy" recommendation. It will certainly open at least some of the minds of people we multiple stalking victims are forced to deal with. An excellent web site for members of the public who are not yet aware of organized citizen stalking is this one titled Citizens Against Technological and Community-based Harassment (CATCH): . |

REVIEW: Eleanor White talking:
** This book "Cause Stalking" [2007] contains much of the original material from "Terrorist Stalking in America" [2001] but also contains quite a bit of new material as well. Those who own "Terrorist Stalking in America" to assist with anti-organized stalking for activism purposes would do well to have the updated information in "Cause Stalking."
Some of the telling statements about organized stalkers from the first book don't appear in the second, so do check out that review also, when considering activism material.
Private investigator David Lawson has done something really unique, and which breaks new ground, in the endless quest for truth, justice, and freedom in writing his two books "Terrorist Stalking in America" and now "Cause Stalking." He has infiltrated the international organization of "citizen watch" extremists who harass people for their entire lives, based on lies fed to the harassers by their leaders. His work is a hugely important Step One in exposing and stopping these deluded criminals.
But David Lawson, for reasons unknown to me, has included material in both his books which serves to distract the reader from the real issue that many innocent citizens in many countries are experiencing daily, and have been experiencing for years and even decades. In order for you, the reader, to be able to separate the crime of organized stalking of innocent citizens from foreign terrorist activity and domestic hate groups, you need to think about something carefully as you read the book.
You need to remind yourself that the actual OBSERVATIONS of an investigator are an entirely separate thing from any CONCLUSIONS the investigator may draw. Lawson's observations of these groups are priceless, as they show the public what is happening to us targets independently of our testimony. Use his observations to the maximum in your anti-organized stalking activistm.
David Lawson repeatedly states at quite a few places in his book
that the perpetrators are either anti-government groups, hate groups,
or, foreign terrorists. I see those assertions as Lawson's "conclusions,"
because his actual observed behaviour of the perpetrators he "rode with"
certainly doesn't appear to have any relationship to either
anti-government group, hate group or foreign terrorist activity. As I
read the book anyway, and from my own observations being on the receiving
end of organized citizen stalking group activity.
This is a distressing puzzle for me, as Lawson's observations by
themselves are FIVE stars out of five, hands down.
What I and my targeted colleagues see are ordinary citizens of all
ages, deliberately doing things chosen to make us as uncomfortable
as possible, around the clock, year in and year out. If these
people are "anti-government", why aren't they out picketing against
government? Or why aren't we seeing people of Middle Eastern origin
harassing us? Or hate groups? I don't see people harassing me
making racist remarks.
Now there may be some hate groups, or foreign terrorists doing
SOME of the harassment, in SOME locations. I'm not denying that
possibility, rather, I'm saying over two decades of harassment
experienced first hand, and over a decade of networking with
other targets, don't jibe with David Lawson's conclusions.
David Lawson mentions the U.S. Patriot Movement by name as an
example of "anti-government cult-like groups." Well, I know quite a
few people in the U.S. Patriot Movement, and so do my colleagues,
and while there may well be a few who do actually participate in
organized stalking, the main part of the movement is all about
returning the United States to original rule under the Constitution,
not about harassing people. In fact, I know 18 Patriot broadcasters
who are targeted by organized stalkers.
I don't consider legitimate opposition to government misdeeds as
being "anti-government." I consider that true patriotism.
A few of the broadcasters and callers, far from the majority, do
claim that ambitions for world control exist in the "Zionist"
movement, the seat of which is nominally within the Israeli power
structure. The broadcasters are careful to separate these alleged
political ambitions from the Jewish faith and culture, and as a
result, I don't see this as "hate speech." Perhaps this is what
David Lawson considers as making the Patriot Movement a "hate group."
Personally, I feel that the political activity of ANY country is fair
game for comment, including negative comment, without making such
commentary "hate."
Some of the broadcasters and callers state on air that the Bible
declares homosexuality is sinful. To my mind, that is not "hate"
either.
Neither the Patriot show hosts nor the callers I've heard advocate
harassing either Jews or homosexuals. Consequently, by my
definition, they are NOT fomenting hate. Real hate groups DO
foment hate and do harassment acts and worse.
The term "hate group" as I use it refers to groups which "hate" and
sometimes harass a class of people, not individuals who have widely
varied backgrounds and each having a customized list of lies told
about them.
And many of the organized stalking targets I know have no visible
identification with either Jewish lineage or homosexuality. I
haven't heard the targets who are either Jewish or homosexual report
they hear references to those personal characteristics as they are
harassed.
So my own conclusion is that we are not targeted by what are commonly
called hate groups, and furthermore, I don't see evidence that Lawson's
observations point to hate groups either. Perhaps David Lawson has
found hate groups doing organized stalking - I can only speak for the
cases I've become aware of over my 11 years communicating with
organized stalking targets, and being one myself.
It's also important, and I hope David Lawson reads this, to note that
people can be vehemently opposed to CORRUPTION in government, without
being "anti-government." Government corruption is why organized
stalking continues without relief for targets - not because government
exists, but because today's governments are corrupt.
Here, from Appendix A of Cause Stalking, is one example of what
David Lawson lists as possible organized stalking group sources that
I haven't seen corroborating evidence for:
To targets of organized stalking, I recommend making sure you stress to
anyone you refer to this new book, that Lawson's observations are
representative of what happens to us, but the assertions that
anti-government groups and foreign terrorists do the stalking do not
apply to domestic organized stalking as experienced by us.

Author David Lawson did interview perpetrators, ("perps"), targetted
people ("targets"), and the POLICE. Here is what the author heard from
the police he interviewed:
Author Lawson explains here how he got involved and began to interact
with the 'cause stalking' perpetrators:
"On another occasion, on the same business band frequency, I heard someone
complain that an African American man was crossing the street. "All we
could get him for is jaywalking" responded the leader. "Leave him for
the police."
Back to Top of Table of Contents
"People in the group would discuss where they would go for supper, after
their shift was over, so I [the author] went too. I listened to a group
of people openly discussing various activities as if they were the police.
"Real police officers were also sitting in the restaurant, listening to
them. I later learned that their presence was not a coincidence.
"One man who had supper with the group drove a van marked with the call
letters of a local AM radio station. I started listening to it. Most
of the guests were people who said they had new revelations about Waco
or Ruby Ridge, or had some inside story about government corruption.
It is called hate radio. I also heard advertisements for the meetings
of a local political group and I attended some.
"At the first meeting I attended, one young man flashed a phony police
badge at me. No one paid any attention. Some of those in attendance
were the people I had seen in the local restaurant. This was my
introduction to the creepy world of anti-government extremists."
* Again, Eleanor White talking: As someone who listens daily to the
Patriot broadcasts, I do NOT hear "anti-government" talk. I hear a great
deal of talk about actual government crimes and corruption, in which laws
and the U.S. Constitution are being increasingly ignored. That talk is
anti-corruption, not anti the existence of a legitimate Constitutional
government. David Lawson has increased the number of allegations of
"anti-government" activity against the Patriots in this book.
I urge anti-organized stalking activists to be VERY careful to separate
David Lawson's personal conclusions from his observations of organized
stalking perpetrator activity.
Back to Top of Table of Contents
David Lawson monitored the stalking groups' public communications,
attended meetings, rode with them.
The author defines the basic reason for being for these citizen stalking
groups as CAUSE STALKING. Cause stalking means the group is assembled,
under a leader with a "shadowy past", for some specific cause.
Some details about the typical cause stalking recruit:
[From Terrorist Stalking in America] "We are a citizen's group that
helps the police. We are trying to alert people in the area about this
person [the target] before he gets to do what he did in the last place
he lived." [Eleanor White talking: All the cause stalking targets I
know well did not commit ANY offenses. The stalkers are filled with
LIES by their leaders.]
[From Terrorist Stalking in America] "When I get the call, I go to
whatever the address is. It doesn't matter what they [targets] do,
they can never get away from us."
[From Terrorist Stalking in America] "Who are we? We drive the
ambulances that take you to the emergency room. When your house is
burning, we put out the fire. We are security guards. We protect you
at night. YOU ONLY HAVE ELECTRICITY, PHONE AND CABLE SERVICE BECAUSE
OF US. We are janitors. We have the keys. We fix your cars. YOU
DON'T WANT TO MESS WITH US."
In "Cause Stalking", David Lawson provides some details about the
motivations of stalking group members not in the first book:
Lawson describes recruits to these groups as "... those who feel
powerless, inferior and angry." Common sense is that naturally, such
people would be easy to recruit for street and adjacent to the target's
home harassment, but I would comment that lots of professionals put us
(targets) down at every opportunity, declaring us mentally ill for even
suggesting organized stalking is possible. These professionals don't
"feel powerless, inferior, and angry."
And I doubt the many utility and city employees who participate feel
"powerless, inferior, and angry" either. So while David Lawson has done
a great job, some aspects of organized stalking have escaped him.
One interesting comment Lawson makes is that "Firemen across the
country, and even some police officers, support these groups."
That's interesting to me because I have heard a number of reports that
vehicular harassment has involved an above average number of vehicles
that bear stickers of firefighters, or, a few targets have traced
perpetrator identities to firemen. One target discovered that a number
of vehicular harassment cars, identified by licence number, were parked
in a police station parking lot.
My personal take on why firemen and police would back these groups is
that many have a heightened sense of community service. If they can
be persuaded that the target has a criminal record, the worst case
being that of a pedophile, it would be natural for firefighters and
police to "help keep the target in line".
I'd like to comment on the following statement made by David Lawson
about his impressions resulting from, apparently, joining and monitoring
targeted individuals' forums on the Internet:
In our group, which in my 11 years on line extends to a couple of
thousand targets world wide, almost everyone who experiences organized
stalking also experiences electronic anti-personnel harassment sooner
or later. Through the efforts of our researchers, we have rock solid
documentation on FIVE silent, zero trace evidence, through wall capable
devices which are NOT secret military weapons. These technologies can
be had by anyone with an upper middle class income. All five of them.
I did offer to provide the documentation, and explain the operation
of these five weapons to David Lawson, but he declined, regrettably.
He could do the world a great deal of good if he would turn his
investigative skills toward the task of exposing the second echelon
of the stalkers, those with the electronic weapons.
As to the government doing the stalking: I regret that so many of our
web sites and email forums are full of claims that "the government" is
carrying out the harassment. The fact is as of today, we cannot
identify either the people at the top of the organized stalking chain
of command, nor the people at the top of the electronic weapons chain
of command. Hence, we cannot say whether government employees are
doing the harassment or not. I sincerely wish we could hire David
Lawson to find out, however, destruction of the ability to earn a good
living is one result of the organized stalking crimes, and many of us
are out of work, working at minimum wage, and some are homeless.
We are not able to hire a private investigator.
It is beyond the scope of this review to go into detail, reader, but
if you will research MKULTRA and COINTELPRO on the web, you will find
that the (U.S.) government has committed crimes of the same general type
as both organized stalking and electronic weapon harassment since World
War II, so an accusation against government should not be ruled out.
And the seamless use of the mental health system to keep our complaints
stifled is a substantial crime in itself. But bottom line, we cannot
prove government is "doing it" at the time this review was written.
The author concludes, as explained at a number of places in the book, that
the "cause" the typical group is "working toward" is mainly an excuse to get
the groups together. The main motivation of members who stay with these
groups is the sense of power and belonging the group members derive.
Having a "cause" enhances the feelings of power and righteousness, but
group members, according to the author, are most concerned with how their
fellow group stalkers feel about their "work" and accept them.
Lawson explains the attitude of the typical stalking group member towards
the "cause" this way:
Lawson describes leaders as considering their members "disposable."
Lawson states that some leaders work for corporations and politicians
(original book didn't mention politicians.)
Lawson states that leaders identify targets but don't directly
supervise the harassment group members.
Lawson describes leaders as having an "air of mystery", "having
worked for the CIA, NSA, or some other intelligence agency that
doesn't reveal information about their employees." Lawson
states that this "background" is likely mythology.
Although the author states that the pay is low, there are still very
large expenses to harass people as thoroughly as targets report. Here
is an example of what I mean by "large expenses":
The phrase in the quote "in the U.S." was added to the new book.
I'm not sure if David Lawson knows this is fully operational world
wide.
Here is what the author learned about their financing:
There are two distinct reasons why we are harassed:
- The initial reason we are placed on the stalking groups' "list"
Those two reasons should always be kept separate in your mind, reader.
David Lawson's focus is mainly on the reason the stalkers continue to
harass targets.
David Lawson's chapter on Selection of Targets may well be true, but it
certainly doesn't describe the thousands of people who don't fit his
list of targeted categories, yet are viciously harassed and lied about.
Here are some of the categories of targets Lawson records in the new book:
We DO have whistleblowers among our number, but the number is very
small relative to ordinary citizens who suddenly become targeted for
no reason, or reasons such as reporting a crime, exposing a pedophile,
or sometimes simply being a target of co-worker jealousy. For the
group of organized stalking targets I know, Lawson's list above is
rather skewed away from our experiences. Police officers and judges
are much more likely to participate in the harassment by trying to
shove us into the mental health system.
One thing David Lawson makes clear in describing the targets is that
"The ultimate goal of the groups is to destroy the targets." Those
of us who have been stalked by organized citizen groups which are fed
lies is that these groups do destroy targets with great efficiency.
Next, let's look at some of the typical OPERATIONS these groups carry out.
Here, I have retained a number of quotes from the original book because
I feel they state the situation as well or better than the new book:
[From Terrorist Stalking in America] "Many of these groups include
hundreds of people."

"If they are dealing with individuals who do not know them, they
can also appeal to their sense of patriotism and they can offer
drugs, friendship, home repair, free taxi rides and what ever else
they have to. In some cases they may even be able to get a key to
the residence from a 'patriotic' landlord."
Back to Top of Table of Contents
[From Terrorist Stalking in America] If [the target] flushes a toilet,
he may hear a car horn honk, the sound of a power tool or hammering,
for example. There will also be a large number of people coming and
going, and accompanying rowdiness and noise."

"In many parts of the country it is common to see groups of six to 30 or
more vehicles driving around in convoys with their high beams on during
the day. This is one of the ways a convoy can be identified."

Let me, Eleanor White, give you an example of how brutal and serious
this "character assassination" can be.
One of our members, who prefers to remain anonymous, moved in with
her husband and children to a house which, unkown to them, had been
a methamphetamine lab. The chemicals used to brew meth apparently
cause distinctive symptoms in the mouth. This family's dentist
felt he was "helping law enforcement" by reporting them to local
law enforcement as meth users. This was absolutely untrue, but the
family didn't even know the report had been made and had no way to
correct it. (In fact, in some places, dentists are REQUIRED to
report suspected cases of meth use.)
Law enforcement in that area was apparently tied in to the citizen
groups, and the family was harassed for many years. The husband died,
apparently from exposure to these chemicals.
The lady, now a grandmother, steadfastly did detective work and
eventually found out about her family's reputation, with some help
from a policeman who was a personal friend, from a different
jurisdiction. This policeman admitted off the record that "meth
mouth" can result in people being submitted to citizen harassment
groups for harassment.
Character assassination is complete, and has life-destroying
consequences!
"They will also make noise from whatever NEARBY PROPERTIES they have
access to. Typically, they will make noise WHEN THE TARGET GOES OUTSIDE.
[Eleanor White talking: OR, when the target opens a window, and I mean
timed to the millisecond! Open, close, perfect sync!] Group members
will also frequently knock on his door for whatever peculiar reasons
they can dream up."
Back to Top of Table of Contents
Now that is a HUGE "laundry list" of operations carried out against
the targets of these criminal cause stalking groups. But reader, both
of David Lawson's books are pretty well ALL MEAT, and there is MUCH, MUCH
more within their covers. If the general public is made aware of this book,
these brutal crimes, which have resulted in suicides, just might have a
chance of being exposed and stopped.
In fact, given the almost seamless cover provided by public officials
who consistently say that organized stalking doesn't happen, and those
who complain of it are mentally ill, it may well be that ONLY by
educating the general public can these crimes be reversed and stopped.
Covering up organized stalking is itself a criminal act, and a violation
of all the job descriptions and oaths these public officials have accepted
and made. They are NOT doing their jobs!
What about the future, then? Let me close this review with a chilling
quote from David Lawson's first book, Terrorist Stalking in America,
reporting what the author learned from some of the leaders:
Eleanor White
Back to Top of Table of Contents
- groups watched by "FBI counterterrorism"
In Appendix A, David Lawson states:
- groups which can "obtain and use WMD (weapons of mass
destruction) materiel and technology for mass casualty
attacks"
- "Al-Quaeda" (EW: Assuming there is such a group)
- "militant Islamic groups"
- "Algerian extremists; Al-Gama'at al-Islamiyya; Asbat
al-Ansar; ..." and about half a dozen similar group
names
- "Timothy McVeigh and bombings by Eric Robert Rudolph"
- "right wing domestic terrorism groups"
- "left wing terrorism groups"
- "anarchist movement"
"Fortunately, the USA PATRIOT Act enables the FBI and
its intelligence community partners to address all aspects
of the threats posed by terrorist organizations ..."
My question to David Lawson about that statement is "What do those
terrorist organizations have to do with out-of-control 'citizen
watch' people harassing targets?"
"Watcher" perpetrators on station in a
quiet Toronto, Ontario neighbourhood
[pg 79] "I also spoke with a few police officers from across the country.
They confirmed the existence of stalking groups across the country. In
general, they said that 'cause stalking' is primarily a civil problem
where the plaintiff has to prove financial loss. They also said that
there are free speech and grass roots issues involved. In fact, the
police themselves are targets of these groups. In small towns, the
number of members in these groups can easily exceed the number of
police officers. In general, the police will NOT talk about stalking
groups. One officer did say there is a storm brewing as groups become
larger and more numerous."
"One day, several years ago, I was sitting in my house, and checking out
the activity on my scanner. I heard a woman say that she was following a
certain vehicle. She gave the location, the make and model of the car
and the license plate number. A few days later, I heard the same woman
on the same frequency (84) request backup at a certain location. A few
days after that I again heard her broadcasting the position and details
about another vehicle she was following. I listened to other people
talking on that frequency and they didn't give any indication that they
were with any government agency but they were talking about ARRESTING
PEOPLE."
David Lawson goes on to explain that he has observed extremist groups for
several years while living in New York State, Florida, and Canada.
"Cause stalking has been used by extremist groups since the
early 1990s. The basic system is alleged to have been developed by
the Ku Klux Klan and refined through years of use.
"Recruits tend to be blue collar workers who are at the bottom end of
the job scale. They are janitors in apartments, hotels, etc., who
have keys to get in any locked doors. They are security guards, who
can let fellow members into places where they would not normally be
allowed to go. They are city workers, who can, in many cities, follow
a target around all day in their vehicles or have a noisy project
underway near his [target's] residence. They are taxi drivers, who
are a network that is always on the road. They are cable, telephone
and electric company employees who can interfere with a target's
service and spend time on patrol with the group, while they are on
the job."
Those are the author's words. Here are a few quotes from the perpetrators
themselves, from the original book:
[From Terrorist Stalking in America] "We are like the police except we
are ABOVE the police."
Back to Top of Table of Contents
- 25% follow the nominal "cause" they were recruited under
That 10% joining out of fear of harassment is quite interesting, as one
of the most difficult barriers to educating the general public about
organized stalking is why anyone would volunteer to harass others.
Joining out of fear is very Mafia-like.
- 25% actually participate in the harassment
- 75% harass occasionally or not at all
- 10% join out of fear of being harassed themselves
"On the Internet, groups professing to protest government stalking,
claim that high tech weapons are used against them. It isn't the
government and groups do not have access to any technology that
can't be bought on the Internet. Their tactics aren't high tech,
they are low tech. Targets will encounter people carrying speakers
and what appear to be electronic devices. They are just a show."
A few years ago, I was briefly in email contact with David Lawson, and
he made the same assertion to me by email. This clearly shows that
in spite of his excellent detective work, he missed a corps of
electronic anti-personnel weapon operators who, apparently, are kept
away from the community level stalking groups. This is probably why
David Lawson hasn't learned about these "e-weapons."
"Most active group members have only a general idea of the ideology
of the group but they don't particularly care."
These groups come into being and are run by leaders. Here is what the
author says about them in this book, a bit different and more clearly,
when compared with the original book:
"Group leaders do have political goals and the belief that the
end justifies the means."
How about financing these groups?
"Groups are WELL FINANCED. They can afford to RENT PROPERTY WHEREVER
THE TARGET LIVES. If he drives across the country, he will be followed
by supporters of similar groups in that area. If he travels by plane,
group members will meet him wherever he lands in the U.S. They may
even accompany him on a plane if they know his travel plan, and there
is a good chance that they do."

[From Terrorist Stalking in America] "The operations of many extremist
groups are actually financed by CORPORATIONS which use them to stalk
their enemies or potential enemies. The groups are used as the PRIVATE
ARMIES of those corporations. Some countries kill dissidents and in
others they are jailed. In the United States, someone who is threatening
to corporations or industries, like a whistleblower or activist, is
likely to become the target of an extremist group."
The author makes several statements that these criminal stalking groups
not only harass targets specified by their leaders, but also are FOR
HIRE - a kind of "revenge service" for those wealthy enough to hire
them. We in the organized stalking target community agree.
- The reason the stalkers keep it up (always involves lies)
- Abortion clinic workers
- People guilty of mistreatment of animals
- County clerks and local politicians
- Police officers
- Judges
- IRS and Treasury agents

"The leaders ... are starting to balk at exposing their members to
arrest for activities which amount to little gain for the movement.
THEY SAY THAT ANYONE WHO IS A TARGET SHOULD BE KILLED, and not just
harassed for years."
YOU, Joe and Jane Citizen, have the power to stop this by doing nothing
more than asking your public officials how they plan to deal with this
growing crime. Will you help us?
