The Mystery Behind Real Flying Saucers

Could today’s widespread belief that flying saucers are extraterrestrial spaceships be the result of an unintentional, civilian conspiracy? One that created real flying saucers in order to achieve its end?

Now, historian Jack Hagerty and I may have uncovered just that in our latest book, “The Saucer Fleet” (Apogee Books, 2008). What we discovered was that the desire to make money from a current news event led several major entertainment corporations, perhaps the entire industry, into individually promoting the same sensational, but unproven theory with all their persuasive power. Thus they effectively became co-conspirators in the greatest public deception of the 20th century! It is a phenomenon that today, having existed for so long, is taken as indisputable fact.

More than that, all this plus the Art Bell show I think are quasi-officially countenanced diversions and distractions feted by the black hat black suitcase secret budget crowd of the Federal government and others.  I wish I had a dime for every time I heard someone get on the Art Bell show and proclaimed that they were giving out some secret about space goobers and flying frisbees from way yonder that the government doesn’t want you to know.  Except they’re speaking on 500 some odd radio stations, all of them FCC-licensed.  If “they” really didn’t want you to know, you wouldn’t be hearing it in way that you are.  However, if you’re white and start talking about race in a right-wing way, then you’re going to understand what it’s like when someone powerful doesn’t want something to be said and heard and considered.

Years after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Department of Defense confessed to the fact that the Roswell balloon really was a balloon, and they were trying to spy on the Soviet Union.  Remember, 1947 was a full decade before functional Earth-orbiting satellites.  If they would have admitted to what they were doing when the balloon fell near Roswell, N.M., it would have created a scene with the Russians, and it probably also violated a treaty.  None of which anyone really wanted in the first years of the USA and the USSR staring each other down through half the world, splitting Europe and Germany down the middle, and Berlin down the middle, and both with nuclear weapons.  Several years after a World War, no less.  Who the hell would have known that it wasn’t going to get hot?  That any little thing would mean the USA and USSR would blow each other into oblivion?  This is why for years and decades, they pushed the “alien landing” snowball down the mountain, because they were perfectly happy with the Art Bells of the world blabbering on about aliens.

This is what I think this crap that goes “bump in the night” and all these weird things people are seeing in the sky really is — stuff that is of our doing.  Think:  CIA.  Probably spying on China and Iran, something that probably violates loads of international treaties, or maybe we’re spying on our foreign friends and their business practices.  Things that if were truly found out, would rent diplomacy asunder.
