UFO Cover-Up Fading
Says Legendary White House Correspondent.
By Sarah McClendon, White House
Correspondent
Washington, D.C. -- Unidentified
Flying Objects, a term given for many years to unexplained
sightings of craft in the skies over every state in the
Union, are actual visitors from other worlds, believe a
community of scientists and technicians employed by
government.
The real danger to the U.
S. and perhaps this whole planet is the government has
placed such a heavy blanket of secrecy upon this issue. So
much secrecy, those in government who have knowledge showing
UFOs are identifiable feel the subject cannot be discussed
by those in the know without serious repercussions. Others
are afraid their friends and co-workers will think they are
crazy if they even so much as insinuate that UFOs are
identifiable as manned craft from outside the earth. This
particularly applies to newspaper editors and publishers,
reporters and analysts. Thus the U. S. is denying itself the
chance to learn more about UFOs or to encourage research
despite the fact the U. S. stands to gain form such
discussions.
Not publicized but true
is that the Clinton administration, soon after coming to
office, had many briefings on the subject. Laurence
Rockefeller provided the information for the President and
Mrs. Clinton. Others provided documents and verbal briefings
to presidential advisors Jack Gibbons (science), Bruce
Lindsay (personal), Anthony Lake (national security) and
Vice President Albert Gore. About the same time a three hour
briefing was given by Dr. Steven Greer to the sitting
Director of the CIA, Admiral Woolsey.
Subsequently, Clinton
instructed Webster Hubbell, when naming him to the position
of Associate Attorney General at the Justice Department,
that he wanted him to investigate and report back to him on
two things, circumstances surrounding the death of President
John F. Kennedy, and the existence of UFOs. Hubbell, despite
his position and the presidential imprimatur, was boxed in
at Justice Department and never was able to find out. All of
this was disclosed in Hubbell's memoir Friends in High
Places.
Now the lid on UFOs is
gradually coming off. There is a national drive underway to
get one million signatures on a petition calling for an open
Congressional hearing for government employee witnesses. Dr.
Steven Greer, Director of the Center for the Study of
Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CSETI), devotes most of his
time seeking disclosure of government evidence proving the
existence of craft manned by non-humans. Another who feels
that positive proof exists within government, is Lt. Col.
Philip J. Corso (retired), who reveals in a recent book, The
Day After Roswell, that he was in charge of the Roswell
files during his tenure as head of the Army's Foreign
Technology Division. He states unequivocally that these
files confirm the crash which occurred at Roswell, New
Mexico was an alien space craft. This completely refutes the
Air Force denials and subsequent explanations. Corso says
that the crashed vehicle was studied and proved to be
manufactured of materials unknown as to source and usage in
this country. In time, he says, this and other UFOs provided
technologies which were "worked into the commercial world
via front companies." Incidentally he vouches for the fact
that this has proven to be a valuable contribution to U.S.
aircraft design and other commercial products.
After the Roswell incident, the Air Force replied to
reporters' inquiries that this was all part of research
using weather balloons and other equipment. Corso and
hundreds of others who work or have worked in secret defense
and scientific agencies, are willing to swear under oath
that alien craft are repeatedly penetrating our airspace.
Whenever the military
agencies are asked to look into this matter further, the
answer is always the same - "We do not investigate UFOs."
