Over the past few years I have had the responsibility
of briefing senior government and scientific leaders both in the US and abroad
on the UFO/Extraterrestrial subject.
The evidence regarding this subject is clear and
overwhelming: It has not been difficult to make a compelling case for the
reality of UFOs per se. What is a greater challenge is elucidating the
architecture of secrecy related to UFOs (see the exposition of this matter
contained in the paper entitled “Unacknowledged” by this author). But the
greatest challenge is explaining the ‘why’. Why all the secrecy? Why a ‘black’
or unacknowledged government within the government? Why hide the UFO/ET subject
from public view?
The ‘what’ or evidence is complex but manageable. The
‘how’ or nature of the secret programs is more difficult, much more complex and
Byzantine. But the ‘why’ – the reason behind the secrecy’- is the most
challenging problem of all. There is not a single answer to this question, but
rather numerous inter-related reasons for such extraordinary secrecy. Our
investigations and interviews with dozens of top – secret witnesses who have
been within such programs have enabled us to understand the reasons behind this
secrecy. They range from the fairly obvious and straight-forward to the really
bizarre. Here, I wish to share some key points regarding this secrecy, why it
has been imposed and why it is so difficult for the controlling interests
within covert programs to reverse policy and allow disclosure.
In The Beginning
In the early days of the ET/UFO phenomena, military,
intelligence and industrial interests had concerns regarding the nature of the
phenomena, whether it originated from our human adversaries and once it was
determined to be extraterrestrial, how the public would react.
In the 1930s and 1940s this was no small matter: If
these UFOs were of terrestrial origin, they would be evidence of an earthly
adversary with technological devices far in advance of US aircraft. And once it
was determined to be extraterrestrial (some quarters knew this prior to the end
of WWII) there were many more questions than answers. To wit: why were the ET s
here? What are their intentions? How do the devices travel at such fantastic
speeds and through the vastness of space? How might these technologies be
applied to the human situation -both in war and in peace? How would the public
react to this knowledge? What effect would the disclosure of these facts have
on human belief systems? Political and social systems?
From the late 1940s through the early 1950s, a
concerted effort was made to figure out the basic science and technologies
behind these spacecraft, primarily through the direct study and
reverse-engineering of the retrieved extraterrestrial objects from New Mexico
and elsewhere. It was immediately recognized that these objects were using laws
of physics and applied technologies far in advance of internal combustion
engines, vacuum tubes and the
like. In the climate of the Cold War and in a world
where a relatively minor advantage technologically could tilt the balance of
power in the nuclear arms race, this was no small matter.
Indeed, the theme of human geo-political dysfunction
appears as a recurring feature of the secrecy related to UFOs – up to the
present hour. More on this later.
smithFrom the Wilbur Smith top secret Canadian
government document of 1950, we know that this subject was held in greater
secrecy than even the development of the hydrogen bomb. There was a tremendous
effort underway by the late 1940s to study extraterrestrial hardware, figure
out how it operated and see what human applications might be made from such
discoveries. Even then, the project dealing with this subject was
extraordinarily covert.
It became much more so by the early 1950s when
substantial progress was made on some of the basic physics behind the ET craft
energy and propulsion systems. The best we can estimate, it was then that the
entire project became increasingly ‘black’ or unacknowledged.
The compartmentalization of the project dealing with
UFOs was exponentially increased by the early 1950s when it was realized what
it was that these covert projects actually had: Devices displaying physics and
energy systems which – if disclosed – would forever alter life on Earth.
By the Eisenhower era, the UFO/ET projects were
increasingly compartmented away from legal, constitutional chain-of-command
oversight and control. This means that -while we know from witness testimony
that Eisenhower knew of the ET craft – the president ( and similar leaders in
the UK and elsewhere) were increasingly left out of the loop. Such senior
elected and appointed leaders were confronted with (as Eisenhower called it) a
sophisticated military-industrial complex with labyrinthine compartmented
projects which were more and more out of their control and oversight. From
direct witness testimony we know that Eisenhower, Kennedy, Carter and Clinton
were frustrated by their attempts to penetrate such projects.
This is also true of senior congressional leaders and
investigators, foreign leaders and UN leadership. This is indeed an equal
opportunity exclusion project – it does not matter how high your rank or
office, if you are not deemed necessary to the project, you are not going to
know about it. Period.
Contrary to popular myth, since the 1960s concern over
some type of public panic when faced with the fact that we are not alone in the
universe has not been a major reason for the secrecy. Those in the know
-notwithstanding the fantastic tales spun in UFO circles and on the X-Files
-understand that fear of hostile ET s has also not been a significant factor.
While there has been continued confusion in some covert circles over the
ultimate purpose behind the ET phenomena, we know of no knowledgeable insiders
who regard the ET s as a hostile threat.
By the 1960s – and certainly by the 1990s – the world
was very familiar with the concept of space travel and the popular science –
fiction industry had thoroughly indoctrinated the masses with the idea of ET s
from far away being a possibility. So why the continued secrecy?
The Cold War is over. People would hardly be shocked
to find out that we are not alone in the universe ( the majority of people
already believe this – in fact most people believe the UFOs are real). Besides,
what could be more shocking than to live through the latter half of the 20th
century with thousands of hydrogen bombs aimed at every major city in the
world? If we can handle that, surely we can handle the idea that ET s are real.
The facile explanations of fear, panic, shock and the
like do not suffice to justify a level of secrecy so deep that even the
President and his CIA Director could be denied access to the information.
A Current Estimate
Continued secrecy on the UFO subject must be related,
then, to on-going anxiety related to the essential power dynamics of the world
and how such a disclosure would impact these.
That is, the knowledge related to UFOs/ET phenomena
must have such great potential for changing the status quo that its continued
suppression is deemed essential, at all costs.
Going back to the early 1950s, we have found that the
basic technology and physics behind these ET spacecraft were discovered through
very intensive reverse-engineering projects. It was precisely at this point
that the decision was made to increase the secrecy to an unprecedented level –
one which essentially took the matter out of ordinary government chain of
command control as we know it. Why?
Aside from the possible use of such knowledge by US/UK
adversaries during the Cold War, it was immediately recognized that these
devices were not your dad’s Oldsmobile. The basic physics behind the energy
generation and propulsion systems were such that they could easily replace all
existing energy generation and propulsion systems on the Earth. And with them,
the entire geo-political and economic order.
In the 1950s, there was no great concern over global
warming, eco-system collapse, ozone depletion, rain forest loss, bio-diversity
degradation etc. In the wake of WW II, what was needed was stability, not a new
convulsion of the world economic, technological and geo- political order.
Remember: those in control like to stay in control. They are risk – averse, do
not like significant change and do not give up control and power easily.
The disclosure of the existence of ET s, with the
inevitable disclosure related to these new technologies soon to follow, would
change the world forever – and they knew it. This was to be avoided at all
costs. Besides, that was the era of ” what is good for GM is good for America”
, and the same would be true of big oil, big coal and the like.
The inescapable fact is this: The disclosure of the ET
presence would bring with it the certain release of these technologies -and
that release would sweep away the entire technological infrastructure of the
planet. The changes would be immense – and sudden.
Fifty years later, as we prepare to turn the page to a
new millennium ,this is more true now than then. Why? Because avoiding the
problem in the 1950s – while convenient at the time – means that the situation
is more tenuous now. For example, world dependence on oil and internal
combustion technology is greater now than in 1955. And the world economy is
larger by orders of magnitude now, so any change would be exponentially greater
– and potentially more chaotic.
And so this is the conundrum: each decade and
generation has passed this problem on to the next, only to find any path but
continued secrecy more destabilizing than it would have been a decade earlier.
In a maddening circle of secrecy, delay of disclosure and increasing world
complexity and dependence on out-dated energy systems, each generation has
found itself in a greater squeeze than the one before. As difficult as
disclosure would have been in the 1950s, disclosure now is even more difficult.
And potentially earth-shaking in its consequences.
The technological discoveries of the 1950s resulting
from the reverse-engineering of extraterrestrial craft could have enabled us to
completely transform the world economic, social, technological and
environmental situation. That such advancements have been withheld from the
public is related to the change-averse nature of the controlling hierarchy at
the time – and to this day.
And make no mistake, the changes would be immense.
* Consider: A technology which enables energy
generation from the so-called zero point field and which enables every home,
business, factory and vehicle to have its own source of power -without an
external fuel source. Ever. No need for oil, gas, coal, nuclear plants or the
internal combustion engine. And no pollution. Period.
* Consider: A technology using electro-gravitic
devices which allows for above surface transportation – no more roadways to
cover fertile farmland since transportation could take place totally above the
surface.
Sounds great. But in the 1950s, oil was plentiful,
nobody worried too much about pollution, global warming was not the faintest
concern and the powers that be just wanted stability . The status quo. And
besides, why risk the tectonic changes related to such a disclosure? Let a
later generation take care of it.
But now, we are that later generation. And 1999 is not
1949. The Earth is straining under the burden of a growing population – now 6
billion people – all of whom want cars, electricity, TV s and the like.
Everyone knows that we do not have 50 more years of oil – and even if we did,
the Earth’s ecosystem could not withstand 50 more years of such abuse. The
risks of disclosure are now much less than the risks of secrecy: If secrecy
continues much longer, the Earth’s ecosystem will collapse. Talk about a big
change and global instability…
Many people will consider the technological and
economic impact of such a disclosure as the central justification of continued
secrecy. After all, we are talking about a multi-trillion dollar per year
change in the economy. The entire energy and transportation sectors of the
economy would be revolutionized. And the energy sector – the part where
non-renewable fuels are purchased and burned and have to be replenished – will
utterly vanish. And while other industries will flourish, only a fool would
dismiss the impact of such a multi-trillion dollar segment of the economy
disappearing.
Certainly the ‘vested interests’ involved in the
global industrial infrastructure related to oil, gas, coal and internal
combustion engines and public utilities is no small force in the world.
But to understand UFO secrecy you must consider what
all that money represents at its core. Power. Massive geo-political power.
One must consider what will happen when every village
in India (or Africa or South America or China) has devices which can generate
large amounts of power without pollution and without spending huge sums of
energy on fuel. The entire world will be able to develop in an unprecedented
fashion – without pollution and without billions spent on power plants,
transmission lines and combustible fuels. The have-nots will have.
This would widely be considered a good thing: after
all, much of world instability, warfare and the like is related to mind-numbing
poverty and economic depravity in a world of great wealth. Social injustice and
extreme economic disparity breeds much chaos and suffering in the world. These
decentralized, non-polluting technologies would change that permanently. Even
the deserts will bloom…
But it must be remembered that geo-political power
flows from technological and economic prowess. India has over 1 billion people
and the US about one-fourth that, but who has the greater geo-political power?
As these new energy systems proliferate, the so-called
third world will rapidly reach parity with the industrialized world of Europe,
the US and Japan. This will cause a massive shift in geo-political power. And
the industrialized world will find that it must then actually share power with
the now down-trodden third world.
Those in the cat-bird seat currently (and in 1950)
have no interest in doing any such thing. We can hardly even support and share
power in the United Nations.
The release of information on the UFO / ET subject
will lead to the global proliferation of new energy systems which will rapidly
result in an equalization of power in the world. The US and Europe have around
600 million people. That is only 10% of the world’s population. Once the other
90% rise in technological and economic standing, it is clear to see that the
geo-political power will shift – or equalize – to the rest of the world. Power
will have to be shared. Real global collective security will be inevitable. It
is the end of the world as we know it.
When you combine the economic and technological impact
with the geo-political impact, it becomes obvious that the changes related to
ending secrecy are truly tectonic – massive, world-encircling and
transformative. It is not to be regarded lightly.
But 50 years after the world could have had these new
technologies – and 50 long years of ecological degradation, social and economic
chaos and disparity – we find that we are the last generation in the long line
of passing the cosmic hot potato known as the UFO secrecy problem.
And here we stand, holding this hot potato, but what
shall we do about it?
To end the secrecy means vast and profound changes in
virtually every aspect of human existence – economic, social, technological,
philosophical, geo-political and so forth. But to continue the secrecy and the
suppression of these new energy and propulsion technologies means something far
more destabilizing: the collapse of the Earth’s ecosystem and the certain
depletion of the fossil fuels on which we depend. And the growing anger of the
have- nots, who are needlessly being deprived of a full and dignified life.
There are no more generations to which we can pass this cosmic hot potato: we
must deal with it and do what should have been done in 1950.
The Webs We Weave
As if the foregoing was not enough to justify secrecy,
recall that extraordinary things have been done to maintain this secrecy. The
infrastructure needed to maintain and expand the level of secrecy which can
deceive presidents and CIA Directors and senior congressional leaders and
European Prime Ministers and the like is substantial – and illegal. Let me be
clear, the entity which controls the UFO matter and its related technologies
has more power than any single government in the world or any single identified
world leader.
general1.jpg (8381 bytes)That such a situation could
arise was forewarned by President Eisenhower when, in January 1961, he
cautioned us regarding the growing “military- industrial complex”. This was his
last speech as president to the world – and he was warning us directly of a
frightening situation about which he had personal knowledge. For Eisenhower had
seen the ET craft and deceased ET bodies. He knew of the covert programs
dealing with the situation. But he also knew that he had lost control of these
projects and that they were lying to him about the extent and full nature of
their research and development activities.
Indeed, the current state-of-the-art in secrecy is a
hybrid, quasi-government, quasi privatized operation which is international –
and functions outside of the purview of any single agency or any single
government. ‘The Government’ – as you and I and Thomas Jefferson may think of
it – is really quite outside the loop. Rather, a select, tightly controlled and
compartmentalized ‘black’ or unacknowledged project controls these matters.
Access is by inclusion alone and if you are not included, it does not matter if
you are CIA Director, President, Chairman of Senate Foreign Relations or UN
Secretary General, you simply will not know about or have access to these
projects.
Indeed the situation is so dire that senior Joint
Chiefs of Staff leaders in the Pentagon who I have briefed have no more access
to such projects than any other civilian – unless they are on the ‘inside’ for
some reason. But this is rare.
Essentially, the covert management of this matter
operates as part super-secret international government program, and part
privatized organized crime operation: It is more like a secret Mafia than government
as one would normally think of it.
To acquire and maintain such power all types of things
have been done. We are reminded of that Robert Frost poem in which he describes
‘the webs we weave…’. But how does such an entity extract itself from such a
web of secrecy, deceit, lies and insubordination?
To be specific, this group has usurped power and
rights not legally granted to it. It is extra- constitutional, both in the US
and in the UK and other countries around the world. It is, therefore, a criminal
enterprise and a conspiracy of the first order. Additionally, it has committed
crimes which include assassinations, murder, kidnaping, theft of technology and
so forth.
I will grant the possibility that, at least initially,
this covert undertaking was designed to maintain secrecy and avoid instability.
But the risks of inadvertent leaks – or a national or world leader deciding
legally that it was time for disclosure – made it essential to weave a web of
greater and greater secrecy and of illegal operations. And now the web has
closed in on the operation itself.
That is, the complexity of the compartmentalized
projects, the degree of unconstitutional and unauthorized activity, the
‘privatization’ (or theft) by corporate partners (the ‘industrial’ part of the
military – industrial complex) of advanced technologies, the continued lying to
legally elected and appointed leaders and to the public – all of these and more
have contributed to a psychology of continued secrecy -because disclosure would
expose the greatest scandal in recorded history.
For example, how would the public react to the fact
that the degradation of the entire Earth’s ecosystem and the irretrievable loss
of thousands of species of plants and animals now extinct due to pollution, has
been utterly unnecessary -and could have been avoided if only an honest release
of this information had occurred in the 1950s?
How would society react to the knowledge that
trillions of dollars have been spent on unauthorized, unconstitutional projects
over the years? And that these tax-payer dollars have been used by corporate
partners in this secrecy to develop spin – off technologies based on the study
of ET objects which were later patented and used in highly profitable
technologies? Not only have the taxpayers been defrauded, they have then been
made to pay a premium for such breakthroughs which were the result of research
paid for by them! And this does not address the intellectual property theft of
such technologies from the ET s. While the basic energy generation and
propulsion technologies have been withheld, these corporate partners have
profited wildly from other breakthroughs and benefits in electronics,
miniaturization and related areas. Such covert technology transfers constitutes
a multi-trillion dollar theft of technologies which really should be public
domain since taxpayers have paid for it.
And how would the public react to the fact that the
multi-billion dollar space program, using internal combustion rockets and the
like, has been a primitive and unnecessary experiment since much more advanced
technologies and propulsion systems were in existence before we ever went to
the moon? NASA and related agencies have, for the most part, been as much a
victim of this secrecy as has the rest of the government and the public. Only a
small, very compartmentalized fraction of NASA people know of the real ET
technologies hidden away in these projects. Certainly my uncle, who helped
design the lunar module which took Neil Armstrong to the moon, was as much a
victim an anyone insofar as he was denied access to these technological
breakthroughs. He had to rely on the old physics and the old internal
combustion jet thruster technologies just like everyone else. What a shame.
The inescapable reality is this: This secret project,
no matter how well intentioned initially, got carried away with its own secret
power. It abused this power. It has hijacked our future for fifty years. And
the scandal of this fact would result in such consternation in society and in
government that its consequences can hardly be imagined. Indeed, it could well
be cataclysmic from a social and political perspective.
In fact, the quiet coup d’etat of the late 1940s and
early 1950s, once exposed, could result in real instability today.
But the situation is actually much worse than this.
All that is written above is dwarfed by a larger problem: The covert group running
these UFO related black projects have also had exclusive sway over the early
days of an embryonic extraterrestrial-human relationship. And it was been
tragically mismanaged – nearly to the point of genuine global catastrophe.
For what happens when an unelected, unappointed,
self-selecting, militarily oriented group alone has to deal with inter-species
relations between humans and ET s? Well, as in most areas, if you wear
rose-colored glasses the entire world looks red. And if you are wearing
military glasses, every new and uncontrolled development will be seen as a
potential or real military threat.
The nature of such a group – which is inordinately
controlled and incestuous – is that it is homogenous in world-view and
mind-set. Power and control are preeminent qualities. Such extreme secrecy
creates a very dangerous milieu in which checks and balances, give and take,
are utterly lacking. And in such an environment, very dangerous decisions can
be made with inadequate feedback, discussion or insight from needed
perspectives which are, per force, excluded.
In such an environment of extreme secrecy, militarism
and paranoia, we have found that immensely dangerous actions have been taken
against the ET s. Indeed, we have multiple inside sources who have described to
us the use of increasingly advanced technologies to track, target and destroy
extraterrestrial assets. If there is even a 10% chance that this is true ( I am
convinced it is 100% accurate) we are dealing with a global diplomatic and
social crisis which is utterly out of our control but which puts the entire
planet at risk.
Remember, covert reverse-engineering projects have
resulted in huge quantum leaps forward in technologies which, once applied to
military systems, could be a real threat to ET s which may be here peacefully.
The attempts to rapidly militarize space is likely a result of a myopic,
militaristic and paranoid view of extraterrestrial projects and intentions. If
left unchecked, it can only result in catastrophe.
Indeed this group, no matter how well-intentioned, is
in urgent need of exposure so that global statesmen with a new perspective can
intercede in this situation. While we see no evidence that the ET civilizations
are at all hostile, it is also clear that it is unlikely that they will allow
unfettered and growing interference with their operations. Self-defense is
likely a universal quality. And while tremendous restraint has been shown by
the ET s thus far, might there be a ‘cosmic trip wire’ if human covert
technologies begin to reach parity and we are using such advanced technologies
in a bellicose fashion? The prospect is sobering.
jimmy carterWe need our Jimmy Carters and Dalai Lamas
and other international statesmen involved with so vast a problem. But if
access is denied -and the subject remains undisclosed and off the global radar
screen – we are left with the unelected few to decide our fate and act on our
behalf. This must change, and soon.
In the final analysis, while the changes attendant
such a disclosure related to UFOs and ET s would be massive and profoundly
impact virtually every aspect of life on Earth, it is still the right thing to
do. Secrecy has taken on a life of its own – it is a growing cancer which needs
to be cured before it destroys the life of Earth and all who dwell on her.
The reasons for secrecy are clear: global power,
economic and technological control, geo- political status quo, the fear of
scandal surrounding the exposure of such projects and their behavior and so
forth.
But the one thing more dangerous than disclosure is
continued secrecy. The Earth is dying because we are killing her. The top 250
people and families in the world have the net worth of 2.5 billion of our
poorest citizens. The promising relationship between humanity and people from
other planets is being militarized and strained by failed thinking and failed
programs run completely in secret.
As daunting as disclosure may be, with all its
potential for short-term instability and change, continued secrecy means that
we will destroy the Earth through our folly and greed. The
future of humanity, which has been delayed and
hijacked for the past 50 years, cannot be hijacked for 50 more. For we do not
have 50 more years – the Earth’s ecosystem will collapse before then.
There are no easy choices. But there is one right one.
Will you help us make it?
