A great example of misinformation

News wires are heating up with another example of the ultimate non-story released today, the story of the latest release of UFO files from the UK Ministry of Defence group the Defence Intelligence Staff (DIS) the group that advises military and political groups on threats to British defensive capabilities. We have known about the role of DIS in administrating British UFO reports and sightings for a number of years. A former member of this group Nick Pope has been openly speaking on the UFO circuit since his retirement from the group in the 1990's and indeed the group itself closed its UFO desk in the late 1990's as far as public reports were concerned at least. I'm sure many people will be reading these news reports and getting tremendously excited about the highlights like Prime Minister Tony Blair being briefed on UFO's in much the same way that thirty years ago when a document from Winston Churchill asking to be briefed some people took it as proof of UFOs and extraterrestrials, so why have I started this article by saying that it is a non-story? Well there are a few reasons. Firstly these documents, 6,700 in number were actually released in August 2011, but have only been made available online through the National Archive today, so serious UFO researchers have been studying them for almost a year already, and there has been little if any new information of any significance.

Then we need to consider that these documents had been declassified before that point which suggests strongly that they do not relate to any threat to national security, which any genuine sightings almost certainly would. It should also be noted that although there are a huge number of documents, these are not the complete set of documents for the period. They represent approximately 78% of the total with the remainder still be too highly classified to be covered by Freedom of Information (FoI) requests. It should also be noted that these documents have been released under FoI rules which exempt many classes of official document which are considered security or commercially sensitive. Lets also look at the Tony Blair connection. The documents suggest that all Prime Ministers are briefed on UFOs but this should be expected as they are likely to be asked at public events as was the case when UFO researcher Richard D Hall posed the question of the release of information to David Cameron at a public debate. It would be extremely remiss of government advisers to leave a politician of this stature with no answer to such an obvious question. It is not evidence of UFOs per se, just a matter of expediency.

Also to be considered is that these documents were released initially to UFO researchers and the documents reveal that part of the role of the DIS was to maintain links between UFO research groups and government. This strongly hints at the possibility of disinformation, particularly in light of recent cases of media and police disinformation policies and the use of selected economists to present positively spun government finance figures. Whatever these documents are, in terms of evidence of British government seriousness about UFOs they are in no sense any new evidence, nor do they move the debate over whether UFOs are real or not any further forward. To date there is no evidence of UFOs, whether you chose to believe that or not, it is a statement of fact. That is not to say that such information doesn't exist, nor that absence of evidence is evidence of absence. There is every possibility that any real evidence would be kept secret as suggested under American and UK policy for dealing with UFO evidence laid out in the 1960's.

What is of interest is the way in which the media is reporting these files, and the impact that this has on how the alternative media is portrayed when viewed with a cynical eye.

The North Atlantic Exclusion Zone conspiracy

Space flight has always been beset by tremendous risks, with the use of highly volatile fuels, complex multi-stage vehicles, challenging atmospheric conditions and the like, and there are numerous cases of disaster and near disaster. As part of the contingency plans for manned space flight NASA developed a proposal that allowed for late flight aborts that would allow for the rapid recovery of astronauts in the event of a mission terminating problem. The key issue was that escape for the astronauts would typically be in the command module section of the vehicle, a section designed for water landings. Consequently this led to the selection of a flight plan that ensured that after take off from Cape Canaveral the path would as quickly as possible carry the crew over the North Atlantic. Officially there was an additional requirement added to flight plan requirements. It stated that in the event of a late stage in flight abort, the landing site must be within 150 nautical miles of either St Johns in Newfoundland or Shannon in Ireland. The area between these points was designated the North Atlantic Exclusion Zone (NAEZ), but was renamed the Down Range Abort Exclusion Zone (DAEZ).

Officially the reason for this requirement was two-fold. Firstly prevailing sea conditions inside the exclusion zone are extremely cold and prone to storm conditions, and secondly that rescue missions would most likely be provisioned from land bases and therefore ensuring a maximum rescue mission range of 150 miles gave the best chance of successful rescue. These are perfectly valid reasons, but there are a couple of additional pieces of information that may cast doubt on this being the full story. In 1968 the fishing vessel Atlantic Adventurer sailing out of Seattle and crabbing on the Grand Banks was caught in a large storm. When the storm abated the crew found that they had been blown significantly away from their normal grounds deep into the North Atlantic. Their attempts to locate their exact position were hampered by strange anomalies in their instruments. Their magnetic compasses were showing apparently random directions. Usually completely reliable radios became erratic and the boats electrical systems began to play up. Within two hours of the storm abating the crew were shocked to see bright lights in the water around the boat, moving at high speed and appearing to move up and down in the water column. These lights stayed around the boat for an hour, disappearing just minutes before a US Navy submarine surfaced 100 yards from the vessel. Navy personnel from the submarine crossed to the fishing boat in inflatable craft and gave the captain an electronic compass that appeared to be working and forced the crew to sign documents stating that they would not reveal anything that they had seen. The crew kept their secret for over 25 years before finally revealing what they had seen.

This is not an isolated case. For many years the North Atlantic has been a no go areas for shipping, ostensibly because of the dangers of icebergs, as highlighted far earlier by the sinking of the Titanic. It is interesting to note that meteorological studies of iceberg formation are classified before being released after approval by the US Navy. Between you and I, there are far fewer icebergs than are reported and they pose far less danger to shipping than suggested, but that is not to say that the NAEZ is safe for shipping. Far from it, but not for any natural reason. The real reason is far more interesting. The exclusion zone exists to protect a vast sub-sea base jointly created by US and Russian Naval forces and an alien civilisation that is aiding both superpowers, along with Chinese and European Union assets. The base is located on the ocean floor at a depth of 3000 fathoms plus and extends to an area in excess of 100 square miles. It is the source of many of the coastal UFO sightings along the Atlantic seaboard of North America and Europe and is by far the largest secret base on the planet. This is a story that is only just coming to light, and further details are expected over the next two months as preparations are made for significant announcements before the end of the year.

Further UFO history – Radioactivity and Sci-Fi

Since the beginning of the 20^th Century there has been a global agreement in place to maintain a veil of secrecy around the visitation of the Earth by extra-terrestrials. The first overt contact by extra-terrestrials in the modern era was in 1892 to the French scientist Henri Becquerel. He had recently taken the physics chair of the French Natural History Museum and was studying phosphorescence in Uranium salts when he was approached ostensibly by agents of the French Government who provided him with research based on Wilhelm Rontgens work on X-Rays. Becquerel, on questioning the source of the research was given information relating to a planned large scale contact scenario. Becquerel was an acquaintance H. G. Wells the British Author, through mutual friend Jules Verne, and after a series of meetings organised by Becquerel it was decided to delay global contact until Wells could arrange a large scale investigation of societies response to alien contact. From these meetings Wells worked with the aliens to write “War of the Worlds” published in 1898. The response of the public was extreme fear, and as a direct consequence the planned contact was delayed.

The decision was taken to begin a process of preparation of the human race for alien contact and Wells was given access to highly advanced material and information. Through his scientific contacts across Europe and America Wells acted as a catalyst and central hub passing information to key institutions and individuals. One example of this was his work with Francis Galton, the co-founder of Eugenics. Galton was provided with evidence of the genetic manipulation of the human race in pre-history and used this as the basis of his presentations and ideas on population improvement, work that was later used by Nazi Germany during World War II. It is interesting to note that it was also Nazi Scientists who made tremendous progress in the development of rocketry, nuclear weapons, jet propulsion and anti-gravity technology. Given Wells personal animosity towards Zionism and his preference for highly organised state authority it is hardly surprising that he initially presented large portions of his Alien derived information to German scientists and industrialists, but in keeping with his pragmatic approach to utopianism he understood that there was no guarantee of a Nazi victory and ensured that information was also available to Russian, UK and US scientists. He also laid the groundwork for operation Paperclip, the allied removal of key scientists from Nazi Germany in the event of Germanys defeat.

During the first fifty years on the 20^th Century several key events in the preparation for first global contact were implemented. Key to these were the radio broadcast of War of the Worlds by Orson Wells on 30^th October 1938, the use of the V weapons by Germany in the later years of the War, the sightings of “Foo Fighters” by pilots on raids over Germany, and the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the first time weapons of such destruction has ever been unleashed. Throughout this period it was clear that the human race was not ready for contact and that further preparation work was needed. A core group of scientific writers was drawn together, including Sir Patrick Moore, Arthur C Clarke and others. These writers were given access to the alien information and charged with the task of producing scientifically credible science fiction. This they duly did. Events were set up for the purposes of introducing the idea of aliens to the mainstream media, events such as Roswell, the sightings of UFO over Washington DC, the Rendelsham Forest incident in the UK and sightings across Russia. Gradually people are becoming conditioned to the idea that aliens exist, and that contact is not merely possible, but highly probably. The time allocated for our preparation is almost up, and whether we are ready or not, we are about to get a major wake up call.

UK UFO conspiracy

From our defence correspondent :

Since the 1940's there has been a policy with UK MoD circles to dismiss in public any UFO reports that are reported. This has been aided by the wealth of reports that have been easily explained by chinese lanterns, meteorological phenomena, planes and even planets. Over time the ease with which the public misinterpret common events has led to a level of complacency within the intelligence community. This is not replicated in the manner in which military sightings are treated. It is a little known fact the every military base operated by UK MoD has a two man team within the military police (MP) division whose specific task is to monitor base security with regard to UFO activity. These teams have a seperate reporting structure to standard MP direct reports, and over the last 30 years have made an average of 13.25 reports of UFO activity with a high probability (70%+) of extra-terrestrial origin.

These reports include sightings of craft in flight, close encounters with landed craft, interactions between craft and equipment and personnel and disappearances of military personnel (abductions). It is interesting to note that there are currently no reports of interaction with or evidence of alien entities, and all craft have been robotic and/or remotely controlled. It appears, from investigation of landed craft that the point of origin of the craft is a planet or planets that have considerably different environmental conditions to those on Earth. Consequently it is anticipated that direct contact with extra-terrestial lifeforms is at this time unlikely. It is also interesting to note that there is no evidence of an attempt be extra-terrestrials to make contact with humanity. This is in contrast to Earth based attempts such as the gold disc attached to the Voyager space craft (developed by Carl Sagan) and the work of SETI in broadcasting radio and laser signals towards likely extra-solar planets.

Current thinking is that this is evidence that there is no interest on the part of extra-terrestrials in making contact with humanity and therefore that the craft visiting the Earth are exploration probes investigating the planet and its environment rather than humanity itself. It has also been noted that all of the craft observed closely enough to be categorised have appeared to be of different designs and construction, suggesting strongly a likelihood of multiple origins. Given the difficulties of inter-stellar travel it is therefore though likely that if these craft do indeed have different origins, it is likely that there is inter-species communication between extra-terrestrial groups as the likelihood of multi non-communicating species finding Earth by coincidence within a 50 year period is so low as to be discountable.

There is currently no evidence for a reason for UFO activity and it is considered most likely that the best reason is exploration and research, but it should be noted that based on current reports it is considered unlikely that current military technology would present no threat to the UFO types currently observed. There are, to date, in UK MoD records, reports of 43 seperate types of UFO craft, thought to represent at least 15 separate technology origins. The craft are constructed of an unknown non-metallic material which appears resistant to penetration by any currently known means. The material is thought to be at least semi-organic in nature and potentially at least semi-intelligent. This is interpreted currently as suggesting a form of cybernetic/organic/synthetic autonomous, self repairing, intelligent exploration construction. Propulsion mechanism are unknown but based on observation evidence suggest at least gravity nullification, and possibly a form of gravity manipulation drive.

It should be noted that there is no evidence currently of any crashed UFO technology, and it is though that to all intents and purposes, from a human perspective, these craft may be considered indestructible and immortal. This further suggests the possibility that the original creator races of these craft may no longer exist, as establishing an age for these craft would be impossible currently. It has also been noted on two occasions that individual craft have been reported with markings that suggest similarities with Sumerian, Egyptian and northern European script characters suggesting multiple historical encounters. It is currently the case that although reports of UFO activity dating before 1940, whilst acknowledged as existing, are not considered reliable enough to be of use. It should also be noted that trans-national co-operation in the field of military UFO investigation is non-existant, suggested to be because of the potential for technology gains. It is the opinion of this writer that the technology involved in UFO craft is of such a level beyond our own that without co-operative effort and openness it is unlikely to be understandable, given the apparent disparity between species developmental paths.
