The above are the kind of questions often asked by readers of this blog.
In the 21st Century battle for control of information, we have seen massive classified document dumps, unusual and bizarre claims from former government officials, heavily redacted officially declassified government documents, and more.
BUT TO DATE, NO ONE HAS PRODUCED ANY KIND OF DOCUMENTATION LINKING CONSPIRACY THEORIES OF A MASSIVE GOVERNMENT COVER-UP OF AN EXTRATERRESTRIAL ALIEN PRESENCE.
And no one has been charged under the Espionage Act for leaking government secrets concerning an extraterrestrial presence, unlike what happened to senior NSA official Thomas Andrews Drake after he secretly contacted a reporter for the Baltimore Sun to blow the whistle on NSA mismanagement.
Numerous former government officials have come forward with strange tales of extraterrestrial contact.
The most notorious example involved two 'birds' from the so-called AVIARY -- alleged former government intelligence officers who appeared on Fox TV in 1988 during a special program called "UFO Cover-up? Live!"
In the early 1990s, Laurance Rockefeller pursued UFO-related information from the Clinton White House.
In the late 1990s, several persons came forward about odd goings on in government related circles. Catherine Austin Fitts 'outed' strange allegations she heard at John L. Petersen's think tank The Arlington Institute.
"In 1998, I was approached by John Peterson, head of the Arlington Institute, a small high quality military think tank in Washington, D.C.... John asked me to help him with a high level strategic plan Arlington was planning to undertake for the Undersecretary of the Navy... I met with a group of high level people in the military in the process
including the Undersecretary. According to John, the purpose of the plan
discussed in front of several military or retired military officers and former government officials
was to help the Navy adjust their operations for a world in which it was commonly known that aliens exist and live among us... When I attended one of my first meetings, I joined in discussion with about ten people which included James Woolsey, former head of the CIA in the Clinton Administration, Napier Collyns, founder of Global Business Network and former senior Shell executive, Joe Firmage, John, and other members of the Arlington board."
Over the years, we have heard rumors connecting Mr. Petersen's activities to various highly placed persons in the government. Perhaps the most interesting connection has less to do with UFOs and extraterrestrial aliens and more to do with something the government already has confirmed in the official record: a fascination at the highest levels with 'weaponizing' paranormal phenomena.
