DISCLOSURE REALLY POSSIBLE IN 2018?
Disclosure may really be possible in 2018, finally, much to my disbelief and chagrin over many years of UFO research that this could actually happen. I am going public with this because, first of all, I am one of the ‘lucky’ ones to have had experiences that are not in the ‘explainable’ category. Of course, as mentioned previously, I write nothing to persuade or perforce attempt to convince anyone of anything demonstratively true about UFO, UAP, or extraterrestrial visitations over time. It is because of my own personal experiences and I have no direct evidence to provide. In each event, I maintain I was not under any forms of influence from medications, alcohol, or drugs.
Outside of including a bit of my experiences in an older Universal Digest article, I did mention one experience on a local television show where I had been invited to speak. Otherwise, I remained silent until my radio interview this past year with Alyson Dunlop on her station, The ADX Files, program 51. Towards the end of the show she asked me why I had not gone public before. I responded that I did not think I had matured to the point of doing so. I wanted to complete more research, as well. Since that time, our friendship has grown and I have a keen respect for Alyson. In sum of my personal experiences, I had four, thus far: 1) 1967 where I saw a luminous ship performing impossible maneuvers over Dobbins AFB, Georgia. 2) The ascent of an orange-colored luminous craft in the woods north of Atlanta, GA. 3) Near Gardena, CA I observed a being I knew was not one of us. 4) In broad daylight over Manteca, CA I saw an oval (or spherical), metallic craft that hovered, then went northward at an incredible rate of speed and disappeared. To date, I have no desire to make any more or less of this except to share. I am not here to convince anyone.
Disclosure could happen in 2018, but I’m not holding my breath. This image is my drawing of my first UFO sighting in 1967.
Therefore, I have chosen to impart to you, the public, my views based on common sense. Now, it seems a multitude of ‘mainstream’ media agencies are jumping on a kind of ‘bandwagon’ in my humble opinion. In the past, I have seen similar events occur only to become fodder for those who expounded it was misinformation, as well as, disinformation for many reasons. Such reasons include notoriety, financial gain, and deception.
Honestly, could we be entering into a new era of real disclosure? I hope so and it would not shake the faith I have professed since early childhood.
I will be dropping some names of those I respect and regard as being proponents of ufology. They maintain a truthful and informative approach to the fact that we are not alone in the universe. I am convinced that we have been and are being visited by beings who do not originate from earth. I contend there is definitely life similar to ours that has its origins from other places. I have a favorite line I’ve used for many years. I used to think it was a cute conundrum to pull on friends and family. Are there extraterrestrials? Here is proof. For those who believe there is a Supreme Being or God in the universe, go to the dictionary and look up the definition. It states that God created the heavens and the earth. Therefore, this is proof he is extraterrestrial since he was not born here. Since that time, I contend a more spiritual view of the Supreme Being; however, I cannot see how we could be so arrogant to think there isn’t life elsewhere? In fact, science is pretty well catching up with this in many new, technological ways. Further, the math itself presented by some of the finer minds on earth indicates a virtual certainty of it. All we must do now is head in the right direction. And, of course, stop making a mess of earth in the process. Do I believe we can rise above the present failings of the human condition on earth? Yes, but it cannot without help from a higher source.
Evidence shows we are not alone. Even historical documents and especially the Torah, Koran, Bible and so many other religious and faith-based writings have indicated, no, have documented of continued visitations from other beings to man. So, it is time to move forward to do what is possible to aid the present human condition with facts and information to educate where possible.
Before we venture to apparent evidence of recent events, I will give you a few nuggets of common sense to ponder. Other beings are well enough advanced to only ‘let’ you see them when ‘they’ want it to be so. If, in fact alien beings were hostile, you would not be reading this. We would not be here. History and its evidence hold this to be true. Don’t get me wrong, as I am not saying there are no ‘bad guys’ out there. I believe this is true, as well. It is fortunate for us that benevolence outweighs ambivalence.
The following information is provided from the most recent news broadcasts and articles. Then, following will be a more historical, yet recent account of events that support what proponents of ufology have been saying for years.
This is the most recent image of what the U. S. Department of Defense (including videos) copied for your review. It shows an obviously non-aerodynamic flying craft design. It was released to the NY Times for publication on December 16th. What follows is incredible, and to many, unconscionable. The New York Times was the first to break this article, if I am not mistaken. Originally, there was an obscure department created to study unidentified flying phenomena, run by an intelligence official, Luis Elizondo at a whopping $22 million a year and these funds were almost impossible to trace. It had not been made public before and was effectively closed down in 2012. Elizondo claimed the department continued on, but has declined to name the successor after he left. The program had its beginnings in 2007 at the request of Senator Harry Reid, who admits to have been interested in UFO phenomena. Ultimately, billionaire Robert Bigelow took the program and its funding from the Pentagon. It is now a private corporation. Operations continue to this day. Therefore, it seems the program never really had an ending, just a movement to the private sector. Mr. Bigelow is convinced that we have been visited by extraterrestrial beings.
Up to now, disclosure seemed to be an impossibility.
What follows are a few more links to the massive mainstream media frenzy that has occurred over the last week. Again, could this really be the beginning of the disclosure process? I believe it is.
Senator Harry Reid was recently interviewed by George Knapp of the I-Team, Channel 8 TV, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Nick Pope, who previously worked for the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense explains in the link provided here the complexities and frustrations of obtaining evidence from the government. He has not publicly stated whether or not he believe aliens exist; however, he does speak at UFO conventions and conferences around the world. Personally, I believe he is a proponent of the belief we are not alone.
In the last installment and link for this article, Tucker Carlson of FOX News just conducted an exclusive interview with Navy pilot, David Fravor who was stationed on the USS Nimitz. He stated that they had been tracking a number of unknown crafts hovering over ocean waters for over two weeks. He and one other pilot who stayed at a higher altitude while Fravor approached the unknown craft to investigate. They had observed the craft just over ocean waters and it gained altitude as he approached from 2,000 feet above. The link to the interview is found here. Upon query from Tucker Carlson, David Fravor said he believes we are not alone.
Here is an image of the pilot views from the FA-18 aircraft from 2004. Disclosure seems more plausible than ever:
To wrap things up, I want to thank all media sources for their diligence and work to bring us all this information, as I am doing now. Finally, there are more people who are proponents of disclosure. Also, I want to thank some of the most influential people (ufologists) in my life I respect and in some cases admire. Since I began full-time research to help elevate the human condition and bring credibility, honesty, and benefit to the true aspects of ufology, these people have not only become acquaintances, some have become good friends. Thank you, Peter Robbins, Richard Dolan, Norio Hayakawa, John Greenewald, and Nick Pope. There are many more; however, I have been honored with contact with all and want to live up to doing my part to bring disclosure to fruition, as well as, help in the understanding that we have never been alone. We won’t be, either. Keep believing.
Disclosure may now be a matter that could be measured in months or scant years.
We have now seen more than the tip of the iceberg and this time. We are not on the Titanic.
