Alien Lore No. 202 - Dolan & Zabel on UFO Disclosure: "There is going to be blowback beyond belief:"

By Jack Brummet Alien Lore and Unexplained Phenomena Editor



"A.D. After Disclosure: The People's Guide to Life After Contact" is a new book about what happens after the powers-that-be acknowledge ET/UFO reality after sixty years of concealing and obscuring the truth. 

The book is written by Richard Dolan and Bryce Zabel.  A.D. is a work of "speculative non-fiction," published by Keyhole Publishing.  In the video clip below, Dolan and Zabel discuss many of the concepts they touch on in their book.  Zabel was also a creator of the prescient show Dark Skies that we have written about on All This Is That numerous times.

This is a fascinating video of speculation on the long-standing question--not "what if?" but "when."

John Berryman's Dream Song 64


Dream Song 64
by John Berryman


Supreme my holdings, greater yet my need,
thoughtless I go out. Dawn. Have I my cig's,
my flaskie O,
O crystal cock,—my kneel has gone to seed,—
and anybody's blessing? (Blast the MIGs
for making funble so

my tardy readying.) Yes, utter' that.
Anybody's blessing? —Mr Bones,
you makes too much
démand. I might be 'fording you a hat:
it gonna rain. —I knew a one of groans
& greed & spite, of a crutch,

who thought he had, a vile night, been-well-blest.
He see someone run off. Why not Henry,
with his grasp of desire?
—Hear matters hard to manage at de best,
Mr Bones. Tween what we see, what be,
is blinds. Them blinds' on fire.

Photos from Harrison Hot Springs, B.C. 4/22-4/25 2011

Photos from a quick trip with Claire and Keelin to Harrison Hot Springs and Chilliwack, British Columbia.  Alas, we didn't see any Sasquatch, but had a great time soaking in the hot springs, hiking, and dining out and drinking wine. 

We also watched one of the worst movies I have ever seen:  Trapped in Paradise (1994).  Interestingly, it doesn't even appear on several of the ten worst Nicholas Cage movie pages; it was No. 6 on a Dana Carvey list.  It was really bad, but it was there in the cabin, and for some reason, Claire and I watched the whole thing...

Alien Lore No. 201 - Was JFK killed because of his interest in aliens?


By Jack Brummet, Alien Lore & Unexplained Phenomena Editor


thanks to Jeff Clinton for the news tip...

Was JFK assassinated because of his interest in aliens? [1] A recently released memo shows that The President asked to see UFO files 10 days before death.   This very scenario was a central part and key plot element of one of my favorite TV shows of all time, the great series Dark Skies by Bryce Zabel.  In Dark Skies, JFK was assassinated after demanding to see Majestic's files on the Roswell "incident."

A letter written by President Kennedy to the head of the CIA shows that the president demanded to be shown confidential documents a week before before his assassination.  The memo is one of two letters written by JFK asking for information about the paranormal on November 12, 1963.[2]  These letters have been released by the CIA for the first time.   Of course, the CIA may have its own reasons for this.  Many of the JFK conspiracy people have pointed a finger at the Central Intelligence Agency ever since the day he was assassinated.


Author William Lester said the CIA released the documents to him under a Freedom of Information Act request he made as he researched his new book 'A Celebration of Freedom: JFK and the New Frontier.'   Alien researchers say the latest documents add weight to earlier suggestions that JFK was shot to prevent him discovering the truth about UFOs, and an alien invasion that may have already been underway.

As a sidenote, after he became President, Bill Clinton asked his Assistant Attorney General, Webster Hubbell, to investigate two things. “One, who killed JFK? And two, are there UFOs?” Bryce Zabel writes on the website After Disclosure about Bill Clinton's request:  "Clinton may not have realized how closely the two questions may have been connected." [3]

Zabel also said "The Kennedy assassination is something like Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express. Everyone had a motive: the Mafia, the CIA, the Cubans, the Pentagon, the Soviets, and the Federal Reserve, for starters. Could that list also include Majestic Twelve, the name often ascribed to the powerful insiders who control the UFO secret?


"My answer to that question is, why not?
_________________

 
[1] As many JFK conspiracy theorists have pointed out--although they admittedly generally have their one pet theory--everyone had a motive.  


[2] JFK researcher Professor Lawrence Merrick, author of an upcoming blockbuster book Killing the Messenger: The Death of JFK, writes that JFK planned to give a speech that began "Citizens of this Earth, we are not alone."  John F. Kennedy planned to inform the American public and the world at large that the U.S. government had made contact with aliens from deep space.

[3]  This is not new information.  One website wrote about a JFK-UFO link as early as 2003 (there are probably other earlier references in books and on the web).  Conspiracies That Parallax: JFK’s Assassination & UFO Alien Abductions

John Berryman's Dream Song 29





















Dream Song 29
by John Berryman

There sat down, once, a thing on Henry’s heart
só heavy, if he had a hundred years
& more, & weeping, sleepless, in all them time
Henry could not make good.
Starts again always in Henry’s ears
the little cough somewhere, an odour, a chime.

And there is another thing he has in mind
like a grave Sienese face a thousand years
would fail to blur the still profiled reproach of. Ghastly,
with open eyes, he attends, blind.
All the bells say: too late. This is not for tears;
thinking.


But never did Henry, as he thought he did,
end anyone and hacks her body up
and hide the pieces, where they may be found.
He knows: he went over everyone, & nobody’s missing.
Often he reckons, in the dawn, them up.
Nobody is ever missing.

Alien Lore No. 200 - Dead alien found in Russian UFO hotspot (with video)

By Jack Brummet, Paranormal and Unexplained Phenomena Editor

Thanks to Jeff Clinton, as always, for another great UFO/Grey tip.

This clip was posted recently on YouTube by All News Web "The World's Only Inter-Galactic Daily News Service."  The video shows two Russian men walking up to, and videotaping, what seems to be the body of a Grey.  They say they discovered the decomposed  body  near Irkutsk,  north of the Mongolian border. This clip has become a mega-hit on YouTube, with more than 1.7 million views in a couple of days.

 







All News Web's Michael Cohen wrote that Irkutsk residents witnessed a UFO crashing into the forest, but--natch--though the event was "deliberately kept from public view" in the West. 

"An enormous team of government officials, including military personal, secret service agents and science ministry officials made their way to the UFO crash site within hours of the event occurring," Cohen wrote.

The horses are becoming spooked: Donald Trump is no longer a joke to pundits and serious Republicans.

By Pablo Fanque, National Affairs Editor


It's clear from what the Republicans and various analysts and pundits are saying that they are becoming spooked. The Donald has the potential to be at the least a Nader-style spoiler or even a snag the nomination from someone with at least a remote change of competing. 

The thing about Trump is that he believes his own shtick so deeply that he may be able to convince himself to toss in a few hundred million and actually run. He could be a serious threat....what blows people out of the water is when their cash dries up. And then, he's been making plenty of overtures to the tea party and birthers who are very capable of ignoring reason, logic, and the rule of law, and actually buying into his misguided stands, twisted economics, and ethical gibberish.

Alien Lore No. 199 - The FBI/Air Force/National Archive Project Bluebook Files and Freedom of Information Act requests

By Jack Brummet, Paranormal and Unexplained Phenomena Editor


In 1969, The United States Air Force closed down its research into unidentified flying objects (Code named Project Bluebook).  The National Archives now handles the Freedom of Information Act requests that come from UFOlogists.  The National Archives has a standard line for the many requests they receive for information related to the Roswell UFO crash: 

"The National Archives has been unable to locate any documentation among the Project BLUE BOOK records which discuss the 1947 incident in Roswell, New Mexico."

The official line is that the Air Force research did not locate or at least disclose any information that the "Roswell Incident," as they like to call it,  was a UFO event nor was there any indication of a "cover-up" by the Government. Information obtained through exhaustive records searches and interviews indicated that the materials recovered near Roswell was consistent with a balloon devise of the type used in a then classified project. No records indicated or even hinted that the recovery of "alien" bodies or extraterrestrial materials. 



The National Archives has little to offer UFO researchers other than official reports, a few documents, and the studies by the University of Colorado that led to the abandonment of the Bluebook project. Since the FOIA became law, researchers have prodded and poked, and come up with bupkus.  The following documents show a researcher trying to get William S. Sessions, director of the FBI, to dig a little deeper.  The researchers well-realized--as the letters show--that they surmise that anything of real substance about Roswell, UFOs, or Aliens probably never actually got to Project Bluebook, and instead went to other government agencies that have managed to keep any substantial information out of the public eye.




The following US Air Force Fact Sheet was distributed by Wright-Patterson AFB in January 1985.

UFOs & PROJECT BLUE BOOK

"On December 17, 1969, the Secretary of the Air Force announced the termination of Project BLUE BOOK, the Air Force program for the investigation of UFOS.


"From 1947 to 1969, a total of 12, 618 sightings were reported to Project BLUE BOOK. Of these 701 remain "Unidentified." The project was headquartered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, whose personnel no longer receive, document or investigate UFO reports.


"The decision to discontinue UFO investigations was based on an evaluation of a report prepared by the University of Colorado entitled, "Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects;" a review of the University of Colorado's report by the National Academy of Sciences; past UFO studies and Air Force experience investigating UFO reports during the 40s, '50s, and '60s.


"As a result of these investigations and studies and experience gained from investigating UFO reports since 1948, the conclusions of Project BLUE BOOK are:(1) no UFO reported, investigated, and evaluated by the Air Force has ever given any indication of threat to our national security;(2) there has been no evidence submitted to or discovered by the Air Force that sightings categorized as "unidentified" represent technological developments or principles beyond the range of present-day scientific knowledge; and(3) there has been no evidence indicating that sightings categorized as "unidentified" are extraterrestrial vehicles.


"With the termination of Project BLUE BOOK, the Air Force regulations establishing and controlling the program for investigating and analyzing UFOs were rescinded. Documentation regarding the former BLUE BOOK investigation has been permanently transferred to the Military Reference Branch, National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, DC 20408, and is available for public review and analysis.


"Since Project BLUE BOOK was closed, nothing has happened to indicate that the Air Force ought to resume investigating UFOS. Because of the considerable cost to the Air Force in the past, and the tight funding of Air Force needs today, there is no likelihood the Air Force will become involved with UFO investigation again.


"There are a number of universities and professional scientific organizations, such as the American Association for the Advancement of Science, which have considered UFO phenomena during periodic meetings and seminars. In addition, a list of private organizations interested in aerial phenomena my be found in Gayle's Encyclopedia of Associations (edition 8, vol-. 1, pp. 432-433). Such timely review of the situation by private groups ensures that sound evidence will not be overlooked by the scientific community.


"A person calling the base to report a UFO is advised to contact a private or professional organization (as mentioned above) or to contact a local law enforcement agency if the caller feels his or public safety is endangered.


"Periodically, it is erroneously stated that the remains of extraterrestrial visitors are or have been stored at Wright-Patterson AFB. There are not now nor ever have been, any extraterrestrial visitors or equipment on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base."
