Timeline

1946

Joel M. Skousen (born September 22, 1946) is an American author of books on survivalism.

Skousen, born in San Diego and raised in Oregon, served as a USMC fighter pilot during the Vietnam Era.

1980

During the 1980s Skousen was the chairman of the Conservative National Committee.

He was also the executive editor of Conservative Digest.

Skousen is the founder and chief editor of World Affairs Brief, a weekly news-analysis service.

Some of Skousen's views are controversial.

He made the case that the Fall of Communism was, also as claimed by KGB defector Anatoliy Golitsyn, a "carefully crafted deception," meant to gain Western aid and technology transfers that would eventually end in a resurgence of the Russian threat.

In his weekly briefings Skousen has also written extensively about the evidence of conspiracy by government to cover up its own involvement in numerous black operations such as the JFK assassination, the Oklahoma City bombing, TWA 800 and the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center.

He is particularly a harsh critic of what he calls the "phony war on terror" used to conjure up justification for continual foreign intervention and the diminution of American constitutional rights; he is also very critical of globalism, communism, and the U.S. interventionist foreign policy.

Skousen has written several books.

including Essential Principles for the Conservation of Liberty, Strategic Relocation – North American Guide to Safe Places, The Secure Home, Survival Home Manual: Architectural Design, Construction, and Remodeling Of Self-Sufficient Residences and Retreats, and How to Implement a High Security Shelter in the Home.

He also published a booklet titled 10 Packs for Survival, which he has also posted to several websites.

Skousen designs and consults on hardened retreat homes, often including fallout shelters with HEPA air filtration systems.

He has offered in both North and Central America consultation regarding architectural and retreat design.

2001

In the book Dancing at Armageddon: Survivalism and Chaos in Modern Times by Richard G. Mitchell, Jr., (2001) Skousen was quoted: "'You never want to make a house look like an obvious fortress. Those who want in can always move up a bigger gun. There is no way you can design a home to withstand RPG (Rocket-propelled grenade) rockets and tanks. I design these homes so you virtually cannot tell inside or out that they are any different from a conventional home.'"

Because of its low population density and diverse economy, both Skousen and survivalist writer James Wesley Rawles recommend the Intermountain West region of the United States, as a preferred region for relocation and setting up survival retreats.

2007

In late 2007, Skousen gained attention when he gave his support to Ron Paul rather than to fellow LDS church member Mitt Romney in the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign, in a widely circulated YouTube video clip.

2008

After John McCain became the Republican Party's presumptive nominee in early 2008, Skousen also endorsed Pastor Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party: "As Ron Paul goes back to Congress to continue the fight there, I believe Chuck Baldwin is the person to continue the fight during this election cycle and beyond."

Joel Skousen is the older brother of Mark Skousen and the younger brother of Royal Skousen.

The three Skousen brothers are the nephews of conservative author and commentator W. Cleon Skousen.

2013

In March 2013, Skousen walked away with just slight injuries from the crash of his Glasair kit plane, in a forced rough field landing, following a fuel system failure.

The crash landing occurred near Spanish Fork, Utah, on the return leg of a cross country flight to Las Vegas.

Skousen lives in Orem, Utah.
