It is time to acknowledge that the extraterrestrial theory (which assumes that UFOs are spacecraft piloted by beings from another planet who conduct a survey of the earth), a hypothesis that seemed the best avenue of research in the years following World War II, contradicts at least five major facts:

  1. The total number of close encounters far exceeds the requirements for a sophisticated survey of our planet.
  2. The appearance of the UFO operators is overwhelmingly humanoid: they breathe our air and display recognizable emotions. Not only does this make an extraterrestrial origin very dubious, but it implies that the operators are not making use of genetic engineering to optimize a space mission, as interstellar travelers presumably would under the extraterrestrial hypothesis model.
  3. The reports regarding abductions display behavioral patterns on the part of the operators that contradict the idea of a scientific, medical, or genetic experiments. Simpler, more effective methods are already available in earth-based science to accomplish all the alleged objectives of these Aliens.
  4. The patterns of close encounters, contacts, and abductions are not specific to our century, contrary to what most American ufologists have assumed. In fact, it is difficult to find a culture that does not have a tradition of little people that fly through the sky and abduct humans. Often they take their victims into spherical settings that are evenly illuminated, and they subject them to various ordeals that include operations on internal organs and astral trips to unknown landscapes. Sexual or  genetic interaction is a common theme in this body of folklore.
  5. Both the UFOs and their operators are able to materialize and dematerialize on the spot and to penetrate physical obstacles. The objects are able to merge together and to change shape dynamically.

As an alternative to the extraterrestrial hypothesis, I propose to regard the UFO phenomenon as a physical manifestation of a form of consciousness that is alien to humans but is able to coexist with us on the earth.

Secret Prophecy of Fatima Revealed

Tim Beckley and Art Crockett

A study of Marian or Madonna phenomena, with the apparition of the Virgin Mary at Fatima, Portugal, in 1917 as the focal point. At that time there appeared to a gathered crowd of tens of thousands a visual spectacle often called “the miracle of the falling sun.” Observers, believers and nonbelievers alike, fell to their knees as they witnessed the sun—or what they perceived to be the sun—spin from its orbit and come so close to the ground that beams of colored light could be seen radiating in all directions. Some described the “whirling wheel of fire” and how it scorched the soil, drying up the muddy field and the rain-soaked crowd that had been standing in it. This event has been called the most impressive UFO sighting of all time.
The book chronicles the various apparitions of the Virgin Mary around the planet and studies the statements made to witnesses which are often known as “prophesies.” These prophesies usually relate to coming world catastrophes and their possible avoidance. For example, at Fatima the apparition foretold the coming great war. Also discussed are the appearances at Guadalupe, Mexico; Lourdes, France; Zeitoun, Egypt; Medjugorje, Yugoslavia; and Bayside, Queens, New York. In a “new age” closing chapter the authors compare Marian phenomena to other UFO sightings and relate the messages from Mary to messages given by “space brothers” to alien contactees since the 1940s. Usually the message is something akin to “your planet is in deep trouble…” AS

Space Aliens From the Pentagon: Flying Saucers Are Man-Made Electrical Machines

William R. Lyne

Many of these conspiracy books overlap in their theories and opinions. With each turn, these stories seem more and more believable. Over 45 years of research went into Space Aliens, and it echoes many sentiments shared by others, such as that “there is no known evidence or personal knowledge, verified by any human being, of there being anything made by intelligent beings from beyond our Earth”; that you could build your own saucer at home (includes plans); and that the hole in the ozone and cattle mutilations are both results of our CIA/Nazi-run space program/Government.
On Page 59, we find a list of “little-known, officially suppressed, or publicly unknown facts” to which his book is related, including:
• An American citizen (naturalized), Nikola Tesla (an atheist and a capitalist) invented the flying saucer before 1900 and reduced it to practice by 1915 (the author claims to have rejected a high-paying CIA job in 1975 because they are violating the Bill of Rights by not making this saucer technology public).
• The American government later helped the Nazis steal the invention from Tesla and were developing it by 1937 in Los Alamos, New Mexico.
• The Nazis, unable to use the saucer during the war, sold the technology back to us in exchange for amnesty for war criminals and other perks.
• The U.S. government, on behalf of the Trilateral Commission, continues to enforce a Nazi-originated hoax that flying saucers are extraterrestrial or psychological in origin.
• Adolf and Eva were rescued from that doomed bunker via a Kraut-piloted flying saucer, and later were protected by NATO, pampered by LBJ while living in Kassel, Germany.
• Most forms of mass communications are primarily controlled by the Illuminati, through the secret agencies of our government, to brainwash the public.
• The Government stages abductions using actors, drugs and sets.
Says the author: “I’m not some old crank complaining about ‘them new-fangled rockets.’ I’m complaining about the selling to the American public of archaic rocket technology, when we have much better technology… [instead we’re given] some old piece of medieval junk which runs on crap dumped on us at exorbitant prices by the chemical cartels.” SK

Strange Encounters: Bizarre and Eerie Contact With UFO Occupants

Timothy Green Beckley

Tabloid-style headlines adorn the back cover (“Undersea Saucer Sinks Submarine, West Virginia Man Abducted by Weird ‘Vegetable’-like Humanoid”). Inside are goofy full-page illustrations, not to mention the liberal use of quotation marks which take the place of references (sample: “… not realizing that some people have been ‘singled out’ by the aliens to be ‘repeaters.’ Throughout their lives, these ‘select few’ seem to have the (sic) daily comings and goings ‘monitored’”). And he believes J. Allen Hynek! Not to mention the full-page photo of the Victorian-garbed author. Can you say H-O-A-X? SK

Stranger at the Pentagon

Frank E. Stranges

Washington, D.C., 1957: “Val Thor landed in Alexandria and met with the President to discuss the world’s problems and offer advice and counsel on how to deal with them and eliminate them… Val Thor stayed on Earth until March 16, 1960, and then disembarked to his home planet Venus. He indicated that his race of people lived and dwelled underground… He also mentioned waves of aliens who would land around the world to help with the Earth’s seemingly insurmountable problems… Val Thor spoke of Christ’s presence in the universe and that it was heartwarming to see Christ’s advanced teaching continuing.” Bonus: Watching the RFK assassination on TV aboard Thor’s spaceship, and an explanation of how Venusian toilets work.

The Ultimate Deception

Commander X

The mysterious Commander X, a former military officer, here comes clean about the U.S. government’s knowledge of, and interactions with, UFOs over the past 50 years. The ultimate deception referred to in the title concerns an agreement between the short gray-skinned aliens known as Grays and the American government which allows the aliens to abduct a certain number of humans annually in exchange for giving the Government some of their technology. And you thought that Whitewater was a big deal.
There’s a chapter on what past presidents have known about the UFO question, including an anecdote about the private pre-screening of the film E.T. in the Oval Office of the White House after which Ronald Reagan walked up to Steven Spielberg and said, “There are only a handful of people who know the whole truth about this.” Jimmy Carter’s admitted run-in with a UFO prior to his presidency is also described, with Jody Powell, his press secretary, saying, “I would venture to say that he has seen stranger and more inexplicable things than that during his time in government.” Tell us more, Jody!
The Commander also introduces us to Val Thor, a handsome dark-haired alien who visited the Pentagon in the late ’50s and who allegedly still walks among us. He is recognizable by his lack of fingerprints. The book ends with a short summary of the various UFO-related military and government projects and their code names: Project Plato, Project Deliverance, Project Aquarius and, most interesting of all, Project Guiding Light, an operational program whose sole purpose is to convey false information and to spread discord among UFO organizations.

Underground Alien Bases

Commander X

OK, so there’s this ancient globe-spanning network of tunnels built by an extinct pre-Atlantean civilization, see? Hundreds of entrances, one probably conveniently located near you, some even in major American cities, like that one in Manhattan (press the “B” for basement twice!). But most are near mystical mountains like Mt. Shasta and Arizona’s Superstition Mountains, some in the Andes, some in Brazil. They also tend to have ancient Indian legends associated with them. Then there’s those two at the poles—that’s how you get to the “Underground Sun” or the capital of the Underworld, “Rainbow City.” (You’ll need a map; there are several in the book.) Deros here, Lemurians there, St. Germain stuck down some volcanic crater in the state of Washington. Underground near Dulce, New Mexico, is where the reptilian space people do all their genetic research on human subjects provided by the Trilateralist Illuminati mind-controllers of the Bechtel Corporation. “The struggle is NOW… Your assistance is needed! Prepare! We must preserve Humanity on Earth!” Thus saith Commander X! RA
