We have what I believe will be, a trail of whistleblowers; good men and women who are now coming forward to talk about … a non-human intelligence that has been engaging with this planet for many many years and incredibly, further, that the United States government really is in possession of retrieved non-human technology.
Ross Coulthart
As the world teeters on the edge of nuclear war in Eastern Europe, an important news story has been eclipsed. There has been a “whistleblower” named David Grusch, a former U.S. Air Force intelligence official, who says that the U.S. Government has a UFO recovery program and is in possession of “non-human” aerial vehicles as well as “dead pilots.” As confirmed by Senator Marco Rubio, David Grusch is the first government official to avail himself of the correct whistleblower procedure for triggering congressional oversight on the issue of UAP/UFOs.
The Inspector General of the intelligence community has called Grusch’s testimony “urgent and credible.” Thus far Mr. Grusch has given testimony to congressional staffers, with testimony before congressional committees (House and Senate) to follow. Among Grusch’s allegations we find the suspicion that people have been murdered to keep these secrets; that private companies have benefited from access to non-human technology; that laws regarding congressional oversight have been broken; that federal funds may have been misused.
One question has arisen. Why on Earth would the Defense Department have allowed Mr. Grusch to testify on these matters to Congress? Simply put, Mr. Grusch followed the whistleblower statutes correctly. The agencies in question were helpless to stop what was perfectly legal. For how could they raise objections without raising suspicions? If there is a coverup, why make it a matter of public record by illegally interfering with a legal process?
Australian journalist Ross Coulthart, best known for his work on Australia’s 60 Minutes program and other outlets, has interviewed Grusch. He has also interviewed other would-be whistleblowers that – incredibly — confirm Grusch’s information. According to Coulthart, Grusch is a patriot who thinks the law has been broken.
As an Air Force intelligence officer, Grusch was part of the USAF UAP Task Force, charged with investigating UFOs. This job led him to question other federal officials who revealed the existence of a UAP crash recovery program. Grusch admits there are certain things the public should not know. Yet, there are things the public should know. Grusch has not seen aliens or non-human technology himself. He merely learned of these things from other government officials. Some of these officials apparently want the public to know the truth about UFOs, but are not free to say anything because of their own security obligations.
Grusch was interviewed by Ross Coulthart in early May. The video interview was delayed on the understanding that The New York Times, Politco, and The Washington Post, would be publishing stories about Grusch’s allegations. But these mainstream outlets ultimately decided against publishing the story. It was, apparently, beneath their dignity to print such crackpottery. Instead, journalists Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal provided the story to The Debrief, a website that specializes in “frontier science.” On June 5, Grusch’s video interview with Coulthart was broadcast by News Nation. Is Grusch a fraudster? No. Grusch is a decorated combat officer of the USAF, a veteran of the Afghan War who subsequently served in the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), which assigned him as the NRO’s representative to the Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force.
Among the incredible allegations, Mr. Grusch claims to have reviewed documents showing that the government of Benito Mussolini, in 1944 or 45, recovered a non-human craft which the Vatican assisted the U.S. in procuring at the end of World War II. This is no small matter, as Mr. Grusch has given his testimony under oath. He has challenged Congress to put him in jail for perjury or check the story themselves. Grusch’s testimony is not proof that Mussolini recovered anything. However, Grusch’s testimony does suggest that something very strange is going on inside the bowels of our defense establishment. If the documents Grusch read were false, who falsified them? For what purpose? Has money been procured by secret programs on the basis of such documents?
Ross Coulthart is of the opinion that “serious crimes have been committed” in relation to this story. He thinks it possible that government officials might be arrested and jailed as a result of Grush’s testimony. “Dave Grusch’s story ought to be featured on the front page of The New York Times and The Washington Post,” said Coulthart on his Need to Know podcast, “and I am calling them gutless cowards for their failure to follow this story up. I cannot believe how badly they have abrogated their responsibility as journalists.”
Coulthart reminds his audience that Congress has mandated that the public should be informed on this subject, that granting special rights to private companies to handle non-human material may not have been in accordance with law, and that failing to inform Congress itself may have been a crime – as Congress is the body that ultimately funds all military and intelligence programs. These programs are not private fiefdoms, after all, where bureaucrats decide the most important questions. Under our republican system, the people are sovereign, and the Congress represents the people’s interest.
In the wilderness of mirrors, one may have something by the tail without realizing that one is merely holding a tail. The elusive thing itself may easily get away. Since knowledge is power, and secret knowledge can be empowering, bureaucrats who’ve gotten hold of such knowledge may be usurping a power that is not properly theirs. After this fashion, an inferior person may hold the tail of something without being responsible, or equal, to the task. Is the thing in hand extraterrestrial or extra-dimensional? Is it a bureaucratic hoax in a scheme of fiscal fraud? Was it summoned by black magicians or part of a breakaway civilization? Regarding the latter, Jules Verne told the story of Captain Nemo, a man who built an advanced [i.e., nuclear] submarine in the nineteenth century. Captain Nemo was a man of science, yet he made war on his hated enemy, the British and their navy. In Verne’s fiction, Captain Nemo ended his days at his secret base on The Mysterious Island (my favorite book when I was thirteen years old). If such a story can be imagined in fiction, might it be possible in reality?
It is curious that Mr. Grusch does not refer to extraterrestrials. His language is precise. What he refers to is “non-human.” And that might signify something of terrestrial origin. How are we to understand this? Are we talking about creatures, like those depicted in The Island of Doctor Moreau, by H.G. Wells? – Hybrid abominations of some mad scientist? Are we talking about deformed children, dressed up to look like aliens (as alleged by journalist Annie Jacobsen, who gleaned the story from a heartbroken American physicist)? What horrible scientific experiments have been indulged in by our bureaucrats? What crimes, in the name of science, have taken place in secret? Shouldn’t there be an investigation?
Government is a dangerous power which must have strict checks and balances placed on it. Every American should know that democracy is not actually the core of our system. Our constitution is not democratic. Rather, it is a scheme of mixed government for the express purpose of the “separation of powers.” Democracy is but one check. The courts are another check. The state governments are another. An armed populace, as “well-regulated militia,” are yet another. We need all these checks, and all the oversight that they entail. Yes, some things need to be secret. But secrecy must not be abused for schemes of bureaucratic or commercial self-aggrandizement. That is what is at stake when Pentagon money goes missing, when black budget programs break off from oversight and become powers unto themselves.
The UAP/UFO issue is important for political reasons, irrespective of the truth behind those things which are said to be “unidentified.” Whatever the truth is in this matter, the American taxpayers are entitled to know. They are entitled to know why certain rumors about alien visitation have been spread into the public sphere while, at the same time, other items are kept secret. They are entitled to know if the government is engaged in a massive coverup or is engaged in a disinformation campaign regarding “non-humans.” There are issues here about which the government should not meddle, about which society must be left to discuss and work out on its own. For the truth will come out, eventually. And if the people have not been properly informed, what mayhem is to follow? What sinister exploitations might there be?

Jeff, what did your dad do at NASA?
My father did all the film work with the Apollo astronauts on the ground for the United States Information Agency. He was a contractor for that agency, not for NASA.
You have appeared on the Alex Jones Show. Jones recently said that we have gone to the Moon, but that the video transmissions were faked in a TV studio, because NASA doesn’t want people to know what’s really on the Moon.
Consult pictures taken of the Apollo landing sites by China, India, and Japan. These governments would be in a position to unmask any fraud. Why would a country like China (which is not friendly to the U.S.) go along with such a fraud?
I could go into detail about how I suspect that Richard C. Hoagland, is an DOE paid agent of disinformation. To answer your question I’ll skip passed that for now.
Hoagland was a regular guest on Coast to Coast AM, long before George Noory took the helm. Noory touted Hoagland as the Science Adviser to Coast, as he was for Walter Cronkite in covering NASA missions. A conflict arouse between Hoagland and Noory, where Hoagland was banned from Coast.
Hoagland created an international incident, when he ranted about how NASA lost custody of some Moon Rocks. Russia heard that episode of the show, and complained to NASA for withholding evidence; that those missing Moon Rocks are supposed to be for the benefit of all Mankind.
Hoagland has recently been reinstated at Coast to Coast AM, and back talking about Mars, again. The other night, Hoagland was cussing. I’ve never heard him cuss, before. Noory hates cussing, and rebukes his guest that swear, and bleeps them, yet he tolerated Hoagland. Why?
Hoagland was sticking it to Noory, it seems to me. Hoagland was pulling rank on Noory. Someone above Noory’s pay grade wants Hoagland to take the spotlight.
Hoagland is associating with Steven Greer, the big UFO shill. Hoagland is the artifacts investigator.
Project Blue Beam, might be set to begin as the next, Live Exercise.
Hoagland is, quite clearly, a kind of clown. Noory is an entertainer on night radio. Why mistake such people for having anything important to say? I don’t.
According to a Tuesday article in the Moscow Times, a spokesman for Russia’s Investigative Committee named Vladimir Markin suggested that an international investigation be mounted into some of the “various murky details surrounding the U.S. moon landings between 1969 and 1972.” Markin would particularly like to know where some of the missing moon rocks went to and why the original footage of the Apollo 11 moon landing was erased. Markin hastened to add that he is, of course, not suggesting that NASA faked the moon landings and just filmed the events in a studio.
Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday June 17, 2015
Moon rocks were sent to many countries, as gifts. Some moon rocks have been stolen, as an authentic moon rock can fetch up to $5 million on the black market. There is a problem with stealing rocks. How different are moon rocks from some Earth rocks?
The original footage of the moon landing was electronic video feed that was sent all over the world. Hundreds of outlets taped this feed, or turned it into film. There are many copies all over the world, and they are no different than the copies NASA erased over. According to the Wiki on this, “To broadcast the SSTV transmission on standard television, NASA ground receiving stations performed real-time scan conversion to the NTSC television format. The moonwalk’s converted video signal was broadcast live around the world on July 21, 1969 (2:56 UTC). At the time, the NTSC broadcast was recorded on many videotapes and kinescope films. Many of these low-quality recordings remain intact. As the real-time broadcast worked and was widely recorded, preservation of the backup video was not deemed a priority in the years immediately following the mission.[1] In the early 1980s, NASA’s Landsat program was facing a severe data tape shortage and it is likely the tapes were erased and reused at this time.[2]”
I should note that high quality film records were taken, in the form of full color pictures. These still photographs are spectacular and many were published in National Geographic Magazine. Please review these. They have incredible detail, and are not grainy or of the poor quality of the video feed.
“I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. And yet, I ask you, is not an alien force already among us? What could be more alien to the universal aspirations of our peoples than war and the threat of war?”
— U.S. President Ronald Reagan, Sept. 21, 1987

I was living near Ludwigsburg, Germany and watched the feed of the Apollo landing on Stuttgart TV. My father got my brothers and I up to watch it.
We had been seeing rising anti-Americanism in the Stuttgart area before that. After that, no American could do wrong. One German cop said to me, “You Americans can do anything.” There was, of course, the results of operation Paperclip sitting in the Houston control room in those early morning hours. I pointed out that several of the Engineers were German.
I think you can find the video footage on You Tube these days.
Undoubtedly, the footage is still around.
That is so interesting. My dad ran the American Forces Information Service for the Department of Defense during the Reagan years.
Was that part of the USIA?
No, this was with the Defense Department. American Forces Information Service handled radio and TV stations for the military. Also, the print publications for the Department of Defense that were aimed at the services. There was a Defense Magazine for the officers and a newspaper called SSAM (Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine). I inherited my father’s bound copies of all the issues. This was during the years 1978-1985. They renamed the AFIS to something like Defense Media a few years ago.
Did your dad ever do radio broadcasts?
Yes, he did. He loved radio. He became the station manager at Stanford. After he married, he worked at a radio station in Eureka (1959-62?).KSIM? Then he worked at a station in Grants Pass, OR. Shortly after that, he rejoined the Navy. During the Vietnam War he was hired by the army to run the radio station for the Armed Forces Radio Network in Saigon, and was there during the TET Offensive. That’s a very interesting story because the station was attacked, and he barely survived. I wrote about it recently in my weekly column.
In Eureka! Your dad lived in a place dear to my heart — though it has become a crime-ridden drug haven. My dad was a radio announcer in college.
I have a lapel pin from the radio station in Eureka. It was KIEM. What a small world!
It is a small world.
Funny. My dad had his own radio show, too. His was on preparedness and weaponry— in particular, firearms. It was always interesting watching him host it when I was young, because normally he was very soft-spoken.
Wow, this is great, another article! Thank you very much for all the time and work you put into these as it is very much appreciated.
Is this part of the “all is revealed” before the Communist take over?
We ought to find out.
Excellent article as always. Thank you for posting so often while so much is going on with Russia.
A question, though— if this story hadn’t come out last month, would the above post have been about Hunter Biden, instead? In other words, don’t you think the timing of all of this is suspect? Perhaps David Grusch has done what was asked for him and is now set for life.
*of him
I do not think the UAP/UFO whistleblower issue has anything to do with the Hunter Biden story. It’s a separate story which the mainstream media refused to cover — as noted above.
But it came out at the same time as another UFO story that the mainstream media DID pick up— the odd story about the alien craft that appeared larger on the inside than on the outside— or some such nonsense. I just have trouble taking any of it seriously when it comes out at the same time as Hunter Biden cutting a deal to avoid jail time.
I do not think the Grusch story got sufficient play to have eclipsed the ongoing — long term — Hunter Biden laptop story.
No, but it appeared to be another attempt to eclipse it. At least that’s what it looked like to me. The MSM just happened to pick up the other more sensational stories. Now that I think about it some more, I remember that there was a third story, as well, about an “alleged” UFO landing in a backyard in Nevada— complete with ten-foot-tall aliens with glowing eyes!

PS: my latest comment is awaiting moderation 🙁
I see no comment from you waiting moderation. Maybe there was a glitch.
I did approve the one with the links, but often the system kicks those back and I have a terrible time getting them to take. I will check again.
Oh, just re-read your comment. I only think they wanted to distract from the arrest & plea deal.
You think it was all concocted to cover for Hunter? It has no importance other than that?
Yes, I believe it was likely concocted to cover for the Hunter Biden arrest & plea deal. I don’t believe the US possesses alien technology or that aliens even exist. If what we refer to as aliens are actually demons, then I don’t see why demons as spiritual beings would need any sort of advanced technology to travel. From biblical accounts, spirits seem to be capable of manifesting in time and space without any sort of vehicular transportation. If anything, this story may have been released by communist assets who wanted to a) cover for the Biden family and b) gain access to advanced American space technology. This story kills two birds with one stone.
The weather balloon schtick was the cover story at the time. People that had been run off the site knew it was no weather balloon and people who were involved with obtaining the debris also denied the weather balloon story. The clincher is you don’t send numbered Air Force commanders to get the stuff and make sure it is secured and that it disappears into the bowels of the system. Had it been a weather balloon the amount of security is little more than clownish theater.
Everything surrounding he incident makes the weather balloon story a silly story.
Something happened at Roswell in July 1947, of course. And we know that some of the witnesses, in later years, were confabulators. But something happened. The government has offered some obviously false explanations. How are we to understand this? As psychological operations? As the genuine crash of something?
Area 51, Written by Annie Jackobsen, is mostly about CIA aircraft development; U-2, A-12, and SR-71, but details a little bit about the Roswell crash. She interviewed several people that worked at Area 51 who, allegedly, were part of the recovery and knew about the Roswell crashes. She wrote that the crashed spacecraft used recovered German experimental technology, had Russian writing on a data plate on the inside of the crashed craft, and that the 3 “aliens” were actually 13 year old kids that had been surgically modified by Doctor Mengele so that they would look like aliens. The goal was a psychological operation put on by Stalin that would create mass panic just like the War or Worlds broadcast.
It was is an interesting read.
Most of the UFO “community” reject Jacobsen’s account of Roswell. Having reviewed it, I am not so quick to dismiss what she says. Wouldn’t it be interesting to learn the true facts?
I took her account as being credible as it seems to me to be the most simple explanation and fit with what is known about the bad guys of the time. The whole German engineered anti-gravity thing is a little out there but I can accept it as a possibility at this point. I mean… folks wholeheartedly accept that aliens can create such a technology, why is it so difficult to believe that man kind is capable of creating such a thing as well?
Yes sir… I believe it would be interesting to learn the facts but unfortunately the truth is rarely as exciting as the science fiction/fantasy. I prefer truth but that doesn’t seem to be the order of the day otherwise no one would take Alex Jones seriously.
It is interesting, in the Grusch testimony, that he saw documentation of a craft that was recovered from Mussolini’s Italy at the end of the war. Was this a German experimental craft? That explanation immediately appears reasonable.
Her story sounds like a cover story.
Roswell was taken very seriously. Roger Ramey, the then Commanding General of the 8th Air Force, personally flew to Roswell to take possession of the stuff recovered at the crash site and took it to 8th AF HQ at Carswell AFB. Where it went from there, I have no clue, but, given the military predilection to hang onto stuff, they have it somewhere.
Operation Bluebook was the cover up run on UFOs by the Air Force. Barry Goldwater asked Curtis LeMay, then Chief of Staff of USAF, to see what USAF was holding on UFOs and was told no, and that he was not to ask again.
If you heard Jacobsen explain how she got this story, you would not think it was a coverup story.
Two interesting news stories from today:
“Xi Warned Putin Against Using Nukes in Ukraine: Report”:
https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/xi-warned-putin-against-using-nukes-in-ukraine-report/
“‘Exiled’ Wagner Boss Returns to Russia and Gets His Weapons Back”:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/exiled-wagner-boss-returns-russia-114024764.html
They said he was “exiled.” But this is hardly exile, is it?
Nope. The coup was not a coup. It was a cover for something else.
Doesn’t Putin arm every mutineer after they kiss and make up, and put them in charge of the nukes? I thought that was what usually happened. 🤣
Jaques Valee was one of the two most renown UFOlogists of the 70s (Dr. Hynek, a Physicist was the other). I read several of his books, and, atheist that he was, he reached the conclusion that UFOs were interdimensional and demonic in nature. A number of researchers have come to the same conclusion. Given what I have seen of them, I am compelled to agree.
Others have met what are called “They Grays” with large bulging black eyes and supernatural powers. Abductions are far more common than believed, and people have been removed from their beds and taken through closed windows and have had no ability to fight the abduction. Steve Quayle has talked about such things from his research and one former Pastor, Tom horn said his sister woke up to two Grays standing by her bed side speaking in an unknown language. When the realized she was awake, she screamed of course, they made themselves scarce.
As time winds down, and prophecy converges, we are seeing more and more of this stuff. There are other, much more scary, things. You can look up Steve Quayle on Your Tube to see his stuff. Some of them are audio only interviews. Quayle is not a crank.
Has Vallee actual admitted to being an atheist? Where did you read that?
I read that many years ago. I can’t recall where.
STEVE QUAYLE IS PRO RUSSIAN NOW. HE USED TO PUBLISH JEFF’S ARTICLES FROM TIME TO TIME FOR MANY YEARS. HE PERSONALLY TOLD HE THOUGHT HIGHLY OF JEFF’S ARTICLES IN THE PAST MANY YEARS AGO. BUT HE HATED ME, DUE TO CALLING OUT SCHEMES OF HIS AND DOUG HAGMANN. TWENTY YEARS AGO HAGMANN TOOK MY APOLOGY AND COURTEOUS IN ACCEPTANCE. QUAYLE ON THE OTHER HAND WAS AN A-HOLE. I HAVE KEPT JEFF ABREAST OF STEVE QUAYLE THROUGH THE YEARS. QUAYLE AND HAGMANN WERE ANTI-RUSSIAN FOR THE LONGEST TIME. BUT THEY BOTH CHANGED THEIR TUNE WHEN THE UKRAINE INVASION WAR BEGAN.
Being against the war is not to be pro Russian.
I’ve seen several shows with him in the last year. When the war came up, he never praised Putin or Russia.
I think they are interdimensional beings. But regardless of origin, does the US have secret weapons we know nothing about that encourages them to go to war with Russia. And have these beings contacted Russia with the same technology? Just wondering out loud…
As an contactee, I concur that these entities seem to be interdimensional; and evil. However, even if Satan’s band of fallen angels are posing as ET, it seems to me that their goal is a one World government, of which there can not be with an sovereign Russia. You make a good point, Blue Brother, the Watchers have been giving Man technology since they showed him how to make swords.
You are such a devious little spin doctor, aren’t you?
“…it seems to me that their goal is a one World government, of which there can not be with a sovereign Russia.”
Replace “Russia” with “America, and you would have actually told the truth with that part of the statement.
He would slip his propaganda message into a recipe on a cooking website if he could.
🤣🤣🤣👍
True!
There are two countries conspicuous by their absence during the Great Tribulation; Syria and The United States. I doubt if nuclear war is what removes the US. Probably the US becomes part of the revived Roman Empire under the Antichrist, after The Rapture. Damascus likely gets taken away from being a city, after it attacks Israel. When the US is no longer around to defend Israel, she might have to enact the Sampson Option.
I think you are writing this to make fun of Christians.
Why don’t you enact the Zacharias Option. You remember? How he was mute until after the birth of John the Baptist for not believing Gabriel’s words?
Did you block Lanyard? I’d be all for blocking THE, as well.
I usually do block them. I wanted to track their absurdity, to see if they were still on their game.
If this stuff is true anything might be true.
The Book Of Enoch is not included in the compilation, commonly known as, The Holy Bible, but the Apostles quoted Enoch, so they revered the Scriptures. Fr, Malachi Martin, PhD, said that he believed that Enoch’s writings are authentic. The Watchers is the first section of the book, and it’s an fascinating account of Enoch in companionship with The Watchers. That does not necessarily make anything else true.

Chapter 8
1 And Azazel taught men to make swords…
Chapter 15
1 And He answered and said to me, and I heard His voice: ‘Fear not, Enoch, thou righteous
2 man and scribe of righteousness: approach hither and hear my voice. And go, say to the Watchers of heaven, who have sent thee to intercede for them: “You should intercede” for men, and not men
3 for you:
I have heard, that in ancient times, there were two traditions in Judaism. One traced to Moses, the other to Enoch.
Certain Pharisees apparently told the Jews that if they wanted their Messiah spared, that they should call for the release of Barabbas. That name has the same meaning as Jesus and Emanuel; ‘God is with Him”. After having been heckled by some Pharisees, Jesus told his Apostles that “There are some here today that shall not taste death until they see the Son of Man return in his Glory’. I take that to mean that those Pharisees were fallen angels, cursed to remain alive in mortal form until the end of the Great Tribulation.
Jude
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
King James Version
I’m think that was an “Outer Limits” episode.
Emanuel means “God with us”. The book of Enoch is not Scripture. You again show yourself to be a liar, just like your and the Pharisees’ father.
Greyknight, In most traditions Enoch is not Canonical. In the Ethiopian Orthodox Church it is.
It contradicts other Scripture in places. It is not Scripture.
I didn’t mean to say *other* Scripture, lol
What gives you the impression that the US wants to go to war with Russia? Such a war would be suicidal.
An author and/or researcher who put out among others an interesting documentary on the Prophecy of the Popes, namely, Thomas Horn, has published a book called “Exo-Vaticana: Petrus Romanus, Project LUCIFER, and the Vatican’s Astonishing Exo-Theological Plan for the Arrival of an Alien Savior”. I don’t know what Horn says in this book.
As crazy as may it sound that the Vatican expects an alien or unfamiliar savior, this is in a way what the unreleased one-page Third Secret of Fatima is about according to Malachi Martin. He says there will be this coming pope whose coming would evoke the idea of “the dawn of the magicians”. Some twelve times during the Art Bell interviews Martin explained this Christianity coming leader would be confirmed by a sign in the sky. A leader before whom people would be presented with an unavoidable spiritual crisis. When the sign/leader comes, according to Martin, everybody will know there is a power above our heads, and he said when it comes “you will know that a power which exceeds all other power is speaking to you directly”. “[Then], if you have any faith, you’ll need it, you’ll have to take it out of your pocket and polish it up” or words to that effect.
Malachi Martin’s 4th Art Bell interview (1997), 2 hours 46 minutes mark:
Art Bell: “It concerns the Vatican intense, almost obsessive interest in astronomy…
Malachi Martin: “Yes.”
Art Bell: “In Arizona the Vatican, despite invironmental obstacles that would not normally be overcome…
Malachi Martin: “Uhu…”
Art Bell: “[that would not normally be overcome] by anybody else, in conjunction with the University of Arizona, it [the Vatican] muscle its way onto Mount Graham…”
Malachi Martin: “Yes.”
Art Bell: “And constructed an obsevatory.”
Malachi Martin: “Yes”.
Art Bell: “Can you enlighten me at all as to why they have such an obsessive interest in astronomy.”
Malachi Martin: “Huh… Yes I can, in general terms, Art. The reason is this. They’ve always had this [interest], by the way. They’ve always had an observatory… well, not always. It dates from about the 9th century A.D.. But there’s intense interest now in astronomy because of the contents of some of the secret revelations they claimed were made in this century about the near future, involving stars, involving astronomical data. It’s about as general a statement as I would be allowed to make.”
Art Bell: “Oh, I think I can read that one quite well!”
Malachi Martin: “Oh yeah, I’m sure you can, Art! But definitely there’s an interest. They’re looking for the evidence they need to decide that certain things must be done.”
Art Bell: “I understand. And I appreciate that too…”
I doesn’t sound like a coincidence that this alien stuff is being brought up right in the middle of a worldwide potencial military crisis, with allusion to the Vatican no less.
I read that book you refer to. And I don’t think all this is coincidental.
There is an interesting story Martin tells in his novel Windswept House, he says Mikhail Gorbachev attempted to steal the one-sheet unreleased Third Secret of Fatima in the early nineties, Gorbachev used a bribed Italian clergyman to try to get ahold of the document. Apparently, the Vatican head of security stopped this clergyman in time. John Paul II sent Gorbachev a letter casually mentioned the document was secure, he didn’t actually address the incident directly, but as a means of not impeding the ordinary correspondence he had with the Russian leader he limited himself to this subtle nudge.
Live coverage of the Russian attack on the ZNPP from the Epoch Times:

Rumored to be happening tonight
I wonder if Russia knows about this yet? Won’t they be surprise when they get framed for it?
You Russian troll. Are you even a real person? Why on Earth would the Ukrainians contaminate their own country with radioactivity? These poor people have been bombed and invaded, and now you accuse them of blowing up their own country with a nuclear power plant! You shameless pig! Get off my site!
The plant buildings are not what they will destroy. There is a considerable amount of nuclear waste from spent fuel that is stored on site and I would be willing to bet that the storage area is what will be attacked.
They have already set explosives in the plant. It hasn’t happened yet though.
Speak of the devil. I thought you (Jeff) had blocked Lanyard, but here he is again.
Satellite images of ZNPP show new objects on roof:

The white objects are on the turbine halls of the plant and not on the reactor containment vessels. The turbine halls shouldn’t have anything radioactive passing through them. The containment vessels over the reactors are made of reinforced concrete and is incredibly thick. It makes me wonder how they are going to destroy the plant in such a way that mass amounts of radiation is released. These plants aren’t built like Chernobyl.
After reading John Carrion’s The Roswell Deception, and studying the disinformation efforts of the Rockefeller/Bigelow alliance, I’ve got a really hard time buying into any of this UFO malarky. And besides, life on earth is a major miracle. I don’t think it could have happened twice.
Can you comment more on Carrion’s book?
Actually I would recommend two of his books. The other being Anachronism (https://www.scribd.com/document/634531554/Untitled)
In a nutshell, he shows how something did fall from the sky in Roswell, but far from being an alien spaceship, it was indeed some type of weather balloon. However, the military in the area lobbied quickly to be given use of the event to use in psychological operations and hence, before you know it, the Roswell ‘mystery’ came about. In Anachronism, he writes about the Scandinavian Ghost Ships that so many reported seeing at the time and explains how the military have used deception paraphernalia for years to fool the Soviets. And I am pretty sure the Soviets have used similar methods to fool us. Amazingly, if you place some type of object in the sky that puzzles people, many others will – in droves – begin to report more sightings….even when the object has been removed. Both his books cover other well-known UFO ‘mystery’ sightings and expose a lot of the deception surrounding them. Anachronism is difficult to find online, but I have a PDF copy I can send to you if the link above doesn’t work.
I am a subscriber to Scribd, but could not find this document after a cursory search. I read the introduction and could not tell if it is worth reading. Does he have actual sources or is he speculating?
Gary, it wasn’t a weather balloon. Given the way the materials were handled there is no way it could have been a weather balloon. That is just the cover story.
The Roswell Deception has approximately 800 references and sources. This is his blog.

If you have a look through it you should be able to find his books there also as he has made them available for free.
Interesting.
And, my bad. It’s James Carrion – not John.
Jeff :
I don’t know much about the subject of UFO’s and aliens. Is there a book you would recommend, so I can avoid misleading junk and get more up to speed
?
It is in the news recently.
It is hard to recommend a book on this subject, since it is so complicated and I do not know whether you have any scientific training or in what field. Probably you should read Jacques Vallee’s basic overview, titled “Dimensions.”
I think Jacques Vallee’s books on so-called UFO phenomena come the closest to describing what is going on. He identifies himself as a non-religious person, and yet after conducting very thorough research into the matter, he comes to the curious conclusion that they are interdimensional beings and likens them to the concept of demons from earlier times. This would explain why they are so hard to pin down and why there is very little physical proof of their existence. On the other hand, if the government has secretly recovered vehicles not piloted by humans, it has been very successful in keeping this a closely-guarded secret. I’m not saying that the possibility isn’t worthy of consideration, but it is also possible that these whistleblowers are seeding stories and creating narratives to distract the public from more urgent matters. Even if this whistleblower followed legitimate procedures, it would not be difficult to shut the guy up one way or another to protect official secrets. The government has a long history of just this sort of thing. Still, it is an interesting article and I hope to learn more about the matter as more details become available. I am willing to keep an open mind on the matter.
Yes. Vallee is the best writer on this subject.
I think you’re wasting your time with UFOs. There are no UFOs, we’re alone in the universe. Even in there are other species in the universe, they probably can not reach us because of the distance and the speed of light. If they have the technology to reach Earth, they probably have the technology to communicate with us even without pur government knowing. I’m 99.9% sure that those UFOs stories are just crap.
I am not “wasting” your time or anyone else’s time with UFOs. This subject is a political issue, having to do with the integrity of our intelligence services and government. Even if this is a non-issue in terms of ET life, then a more sinister implication must be assigned to its very existence. Major figures in politics are making claims that may well impact the military and government, especially if those claims are false. There may be money spent or misspent. There may be a major fraud taking place, or a political game involving the manipulation of people’s beliefs.
The correct reply and a summary of the (important) essay, itself. I need to read it again, so it better influences my own thinking going forward.
Jeff, your thoughts, words, and efforts were not wasted.
Whatever is going on, it involves our military and intelligence services. That makes it serious in itself.
I’m not convinced that we’re the only cognizant life, not with billions of star systems in the universe. Still, for me, the term UFO does not yet allow for non-human identity–because of natural travel distance limitations.
Real crap is repulsive, causing a natural response to help us avoid unhealthy contamination. On the other hand, some of the UFO stories are at least a little entertaining, maybe a bit scary, or even just a curious distraction from the mundane. But, sure, if a particular story contaminates our understanding and sense of reality, then maybe it is crap.
Nobody in this story is alleging space aliens. They said “non-human.” That is not the same thing.
UFO’s definitely do exist, but most are secret military craft. Some may be demonic manifestations, but I don’t believe those are physical craft, but spiritual manifestations. If some sort of mass deception of our military and secret services is ongoing, then yes, I agree that that is disturbing and worth looking into.
Nikola Tesla thought he was communicating with some sort of otherworldly entity that was giving him technological information. Of course, I believe the only thing that could have been communicating with him was a demonic entity. Perhaps something similar is happening in our government, and perhaps it is somehow being manipulated by the Chinese and Russians— like so many other things within our government.
The reason I know for certain that UFO’s exist is that years ago, I had the terrifying experience of actually seeing one. It was the summer of 1999 and I was with a friend at a lake near our homes. We were there for several hours, and were totally sober— not under the influence of alcohol or anything else. We could see an eerie glow through the trees about 100 yards from where we were sitting for nearly the entire time we were there. I noticed it and wondered what it was. After talking for a while, at probably about 10:30 or 11 pm, we stood up to walk back to our cars. At that point it had become pitch black, and we were struggling to find our way. Suddenly we both saw some sort of bright craft rising up into the sky from near our location. It was totally silent. The light was not multicolored, but only white. Suddenly, when the craft had reached a certain height, there was a bright circular burst of light that emanated out of the craft as it simultaneously (still silently) took off at such a high speed that it vanished from our sight in just a few seconds. My friend and I just stood there for a second, in complete awe and terror, totally speechless, and then walked as quickly as we could in the pitch black back to our cars. We never to this day have spoken about it. I’ve thought about bringing it up with her a few times and have always decided against, as we’re no longer close.
The interesting thing is, the lake where we saw the craft is only 20 miles from a major military installation, so for about the past seven or eight years, I’ve suspected that it must have been some sort of military craft. More recently I’ve wondered if it was one of “ours” or “theirs,” ie, if it was a Russian or Chinese craft engaged in some sort of reconnaissance mission against our military. Whatever it was, it did appear to be a physical craft and technological, not incorporeal.
Many people have reported such “objects.” We have not known what they are. In such matters it is best to suspend judgment.
Jeff, what do you think of the people who claim to be able to summon UFOs by thought? I’ve seen a few videos online that I found genuinely disturbing. Some were of what appeared to be public performances where UFOs were summoned, which seemed like they would be hard to fake.
Since thought is so much harder to control than speech, the idea that someone could “accidentally” summon a demon simply by thinking the wrong thought— even just for a second— I found truly terrifying. These videos may not have been real, though— it may just be that those claiming to be capable of doing this are charlatans with a hefty special effects budget.
I believe Steve Greer, the Disclosure Project guru, does UFO summoning.
Greer plagiarizes me with no attribution.
I’m not sure I would be able to believe in UFO summoning unless I personally witnessed someone “whistle up” a UFO.
In declassified Government files, released by the President Ford in the 1970s, there is an account of a seance at the Pentagon involving the head of the CIA, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, in which they summoned a UFO that was tracked on radar. I no longer have the paperback version of these files, and very much regret giving it away.
A séance at the Pentagon by the CIA summoned a UFO… Sounds more like a demonic kind of thing instead of E.T. being called to make an appearance, which seems to be keeping in line with a lot of what has been said here about UFOs these last couple of days..
It was a shocking thing in those files, and nobody ever commented on it.
Jeff: the moment you mention seance, that indicates demonic origin. As far as tracking on radar, demons have been known to manipulate matter in ways that humans cannot replicate, so that matter can be tracked on radar. There is more and more demonic activity going on, not just UFOs, and there are videos of such online.
Completely off topic, but the Doctors for Disaster Preparedness conference is this weekend, July 6 and 7. You can by a ticket and attend online. http://Www.ddponline.org
Another off topic, Jeff, but thought you might be interested in this. China is now using Z for their ‘practice’ war with the US; we are interested in your thoughts on it. It seems they are not even hiding their intentions to merge:
https://www.snafu-solomon.com/2023/07/china-simulates-z-day-total-sea-war.html#disqus_thread
“Z” on Russian vehicles and ships is generally understood to mean Zapad, or West; that is, the Western Strategic Direction. Other Russian equipment is marked with a “V” for Vostok, meaning East, or Eastern Strategic Direction. Why the Chinese would use the Z is an interesting question, for China’s strategic direction for fighting America, Japan, and Australia, is East rather than West. Perhaps this is a subtle message to the Russians that says, “We are with you. We are coming. We will be joining the war.”
I took “Z Day” to be a play on D-Day— but perhaps a reference to a last or final war. But that is interesting that both the Chinese and Russians are using the letter Z in their war plans.
Hard to say if it has other meanings.
Off topic:
I have been listening to Joshua Phillip and while I know that he is anti CCP he seems to be aligning with the pro Russia crowd. I am not very adept in my discernment as many of the people on this blog are so I would appreciate some input.
There seems to be a whole fresh push to put Putin on a pedestal. People are full throttle, on a whole new level recently, pro Putin. People I know who know better.
EpochTimes focuses on CCP mostly. That is their wheelhouse. But, I send this to people alot since it comes from Epoch Times/Joshua P and is a soft, quick introduction to world realities.
https://youtube.com/shorts/i8q5bONZv2Y?feature=share4
Yes, Joshua is exactly describing the advance of communism through Russia and China. I hope that they stick to this description of events — with Russia and China building a socialist world order. This is the true picture, which many are turning away from today.
I have not spoken to Joshua recently, but most people in the anti-CCP movement are under pressure to oppose the war in Ukraine and to cut off support for Ukraine so that Russia can become an ally. I believe the highest concentration of CCP and Russian influence agents are in the anti-CCP movement. This is how things work. If you oppose communism, if you oppose China, mysterious forces are pushing for a pro-Russian alignment. I have been watching people flip against Ukraine for over a year. I have watched the pro-Putin lobby grow, ever so steadily, before the war. When I was the president of the Inter-American Institute, where Olavo de Carvalho did his work, I saw most of the senior fellows drift into the pro-Putin camp. During the past year I have lost more than half my readers to this pro-Russia propaganda in recent months. The Russian troll farms have been active on the right, on social media, in the alt-media, with real success. The more alienated a conservative might be, the more vulnerable he or she is to the pro-Putin message. Biden and Russia’s agents in the government, enable this strategy by supporting Ukraine without giving them the tools to win the war. In Moscow they know that winning the conservatives for Russia is more important than winning battles in Donbas. Therefore, I am assailed by pro-Russian “conservatives” continually. If you think most people can resist this ongoing shift in opinion, you would be mistaken. People who have read and believed in Golitsyn have fallen for it. Most people are easily swayed — as Gustave Le Bon said — by a simple irrational message that is constantly repeated. The Russians have managed to repeat this message on this very discussion board, through trolls like Lanyard, THE, and Petunia M. They even quote scripture and pretend to be Christians to better win Christian readers, to make the issue of national survival into a resent-fest. You will notice that trolls never answer other people’s questions. They are not here to discuss ideas, merely to repeat certain themes and catch phrases that have been psychologically designed to turn conservatives against Ukraine. Last Friday a former Golitsyn advocate and think tank analyst told me that Putin’s invasion of Ukraine proved Golitsyn was wrong, proved that Putin was not our enemy. I was stunned by this. We are truly in the Final Phase when conservative analysts see Russian armies moving west, in alliance with China, and say it proves Golitsyn wrong. Such an is the consummation of the deception strategy (as Golitsyn predicted). It tells me that many former allies and friends were allies by mistake, were friends by way of a misunderstanding. And now they have a new misunderstanding, more appropriate to their character and intelligence. They oppose domestic communism by becoming open advocates for Moscow. Imagine the scenario next, whereby they are all arrested.
So the Pro-Putin folks become Lenin’s useful idiots on the right and the antifa/BLM crowd become Moa’s red army on the left? That begs the question that can’t really be answered; what happens next?
Notice that both groups have the same enemy. Both groups are increasingly against the U.S. Government. Both groups can even come together in a common project, as outlandish as this seems.
Let’s go with no question is a dumb question. I don’t know by whom they would be arrested?
If the United States, under Joseph Biden, declares war on Russia because the Russians have blown up the biggest nuclear power plant in Europe, then all the pro-Putin big-mouths might be arrested. In the United Kingdom, at the outbreak of WW2, all the pro-Nazi figures of any note, were arrested and interned for the duration of the war. We had people arrested in the U.S. during World War II, and we interned many Japanese-Americans. Given today’s political climate, do you think a war with Russia would not entail the arrest of pro-Putin voices? If you have overlooked this possibility, I suggest you look again.
I think some people, when they clearly recognize a threat afar off, are outspoken and definite about it. But when it gets up close and personal, something in them causes them to “change” their mind about it. I have noticed it in regard to other things.
I always try to remember, the summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will fade away when it finally gets real.
And there’s only one way to find out who the summer soldiers and sunshine patriots are. Let the storm approach, as it is.
Oh….. I have wondered if the big-name conservatives and their families are being threatened in any way or promised not to be picked off at the onset of kinetics to leave Moscow’s involvement out of their narratives– particularly the ones who I know know about the Moscow-China connection. So you believe they are sincerely deceived and still believe Moscow is our friend then, and it’s not a professional, peer pressure issue. I see…. It is a choice of the will, after all, to not objectively consider all the hard facts, after all this time, of Golitsyn’s and the other defectors’ warnings.
I have been concerned when kinetics start, “disoriented” conservatives will see Russian troops and wrongly think they are friendly and even give them help, support or info. I didn’t consider they could be particularly labeled as treasonous for their postings and reporting on the front end.
Mntgal: I think there is peer pressure involved in people opposing Ukraine, of course. The bandwagon effect is always part of a successful information operation. But there are also assassinations where certain influential people are permanently removed. I was told by Chris Story of a Thatcher advisor who was knowledgeable on Golitsyn, who died under mysterious circumstances. Does anyone recall him writing about it? I think he told me about it at one point.
In the case of someone like Scott Ritter, there may be a blackmail hook. People have advanced disinformation themes for the KGB after being paid money, in the past. But the most obvious pressure is career pressure, the threat of losing a job, unpopularity with readers, etc. Many people advance their career with the idea of making friends without making enemies. Whatever they write, they are careful not to offend anyone with power, even those in Moscow and Beijing. Such people need not be pro-Putin at all. Neutrality is considered safe by many, but this can easily tip toward favoring the side that is more scary.
There is, of course, the insight that most people are superficial in their views; that is to say, they are changeable and flexible. This should be considered as a factor, too.
In terms of strategy, there are surpising turnabouts where people can be lured or provoked to take a stand, not realizing where events are headed.
Very thankful for Jeff’s books and blog, without which many of us (myself included) might have been counted among the pro-Russians!
Peter Zeihan has been having the same problems with Trolls. He made a video entitled “Of Dams and Damn Trolls” a month ago shortly after Russia blew the dam. It seemed to have gotten pretty bad.
You can tell they are created in the same place, using the same methods.
Mr Nyquist: Thank you for the above further explanation regarding the various reasons conservative commentators are swayed away from truthfully presenting the Russia/China reality. Propaganda, pride, and fears and threats of all sorts are powerful tools of manipulation. One day, when chaos ensues and it smacks up against reality, what regret they will have for “going along to get along” with such “disorienting” of the conservative patriots. So much organization and preparation of skilled vets, etc, could be happening now if they were all given the truth of the coming crisis.
Also, I’ve been wondering…. So, do you see any signs, in any of the world leaders/”milk giving cows”, that it is starting to register, as they look at the meat wagon turning up the driveway, that it is actually coming for them too? Do you see any signs they are sincerely waking up, or are they still thinking they will wax fat once the Axis and bloc come in? I don’t perceive much waking yet, but maybe/hopefully you do.
I was actually surprised at how the British stepped up, and Poland’s politicians have shown real leadership. In America some Republicans are obviously supporting Ukraine. It is the subtle shifting of people who are connected with the Trump camp. This worries me. The Russian propaganda seems to be very gradually winning the right. I suppose the next three months will be decisive.
Oh, I see. Thank you.
Very thought-provoking blog Jeff, thanks! I’ve always been “more curious than the average bear” 🙂 so I’m interested in where this goes.
I am especially worried about Pentagon corruption in this matter. Had money been taken for bogus projects?
Or “black budget” allocation?
Yes. The black budget is an area where oversight is weak and serious abuses can take place.
Sorry, but try as I may, I cannot find here any indication of actual first hand evidence brought forward by Grusch. “Grusch has not seen aliens or non-human technology himself. He merely learned of these things from other government officials.” Isn’t this classic hearsay?
Perhaps that’s why the leading newspapers haven’t touched the story.
Where is the witness who has actually seen such phenomena first hand? Surely over the last 80 years, there must have been SOMEONE, if this is real. What possible motive to keep secret after one is 80 years old, or on one’s deathbed, and has no further concern over the consequences of disclosure?
What is more fascinating to me is why, 60 years after JFK’s assassination, can’t the Feds disclose all of the relevant files? What possible national security concern could there be now?
In the past our government has been concerned that releasing the files on the JFK assassination might cause a war with Russia. But those files were released, and apart from a “let’s not get carried away here” statement by the Russians, there was little reaction by anyone.
If you look at those files, they agree with what Edward Jay Epstein has written on the Kennedy assassination, and what others have shown about Oswald’s trip to Mexico City, and his interactions with KGB and Cuban intelligence.
I do not know why you say, “sorry” in addressing this article. I emphasized the fact that Grusch is operating purely from what he has been told by others. What is of interest is his official position as an investigator who initiated a probe by questioning various officials. The answers he got are not the ones we should expect. If he is not lying, then someone in our defense establishment has lied to him. And they are also sitting on documents that say we have retrieved “non-human” craft. The fact I did not mention, in this regard, is that congress has gathered testimony from several whistleblowers who allegedly have direct knowledge of these programs. These witnesses are confirming Grusch’s testimony. Coulthart has spoke to sources who have confirmed that officials who denied everythnig in public testimony have admitted the reality of crash retrieval and reverse engineering in sessions closed to the public. They have admitted to “contact” with a non-human intelligence. What are the details? Are they lying?
The story is incredibly important whether they are lying or not. Our future may be seriously impacted by this entire subject. As for direct witnesses to reverse engineering of technology, there is the infamous testimony of Col. Corso, and the testimony of Bob Lazar, and a few others who have received less publicity. Lazar says he worked directly on a aerial vehicle of obvious non-human design. He said there were little seats on this vehicle, made for little people. Was Lazar being spoofed? Was he looking at some kind of mock-up. Was he supposed to spark a rumor that would leave the world in awe? Are psychological warfare games ongoing in this area? Again, we ought to know the truth in such matters, for whatever the truth may be, it’s not good news for the Republic. (Which is not only my assessment.)
The main motive for keeping all this secret is rather obvious; but as you cannot see it, an explanation may be useful. Many people believe that the phenomenon is demonic and should not be investigated; for them, the “non-human creatures” should not be communicated with. In fact, they believe there are Biblical injunctions against this. Not all government officials are going to agree with this assessment. Opinion is likely split within the government, with the majority prefering a non-Christian interpretation. Even if you have wreckage or bodies, you are going to find a divided opinion as to the nature of the intelligence behind the phenomena. As St. Aquinas pointed out, there were Church fathers and philosophers who thought demons have bodies. Yet here we have another theological controversy, which cannot be easily resolved.
How do you discuss such controversies in public without arousing violent passions across society? One might ask if the subject itself is damaging to people’s faith. For it does seem, in this discussion, that some Christians take a very dim view of the subject itself — for reasons they have eloquently explained. Obviously, if you are the U.S. military, you would want to use your best investigative skills to investigate this. But then, maybe you come up empty-handed. Maybe you simply do not know where these things are from, or what these creatures are. Yet, if your funding is going to be cut by Christian activists, who think you are playing with the Devil’s own, you naturally do not want your real investigation brought to light. For how can the public even deal with this question when the public is divided on theological questions? How are you going to have a rational discussion of contact with non-human creatures when one of your largest voting blocks thinks these creatures are from Hell? And maybe they are from Hell. How do you prove they are not demonic? If we are truthful about all this, the phenomena may include many things, involving different kinds of unknowns. Or, as former Defense Secretary Rumsfeld would say, “Unknown unknowns.” The subject may be impenetrable; that is to say, we may never find the answer, even if we have wreckage and bodies. Jacques Vallee describes the intelligence behind UFOs as engimatic, deceptive, manipulative, disturbing. Part of this game is that you are not allowed to see into the trick box.
On the other side of the question, we know that the New Religion (socialism) would like to effect a death blow to the Old Religion (Christianity). Teasing out this subject, re-enacting the Vatican’s threats against astronomers in centuries past, certain groups within the intelligence community may be engaged in a sophisticated provocation. Since the subject is impenetrable, they might recast the subject as a government secret. The government supposedly knows the answer, and the answer is not in accordance with Chrsitian theology. Stir up curiosity. Get the public to open the trick box. Only it is a box of your own design. As UFO pilots are denounced as demons, you get your government witnesses to admit they are from some star system out yonder. Let it come out gradually, with congressional hearings, with credentialed authorities making “admissions.” You might even produce hard evidence, but what does this evidence prove in the end? You have a body of a creature. Where did it come from? Why is it here? The all-knowing government agents and bureacrats can frame a story around all this. They can refashion the public’s cosmology. Realize, then, the temptation that certain government officials may have in this matter. Does the phenomenon support a Biblical view, or can it be used to discredit the Biblical view? Then the phenomenon, as described in certain testimony, becomes a weapon in the hands of the New Religion against the Old. If Christians are too hasty in their denunciation of the evidence, they may find themselves embarrassed and discredited by a cleverly designed “scientific” presentation. Please notice who is presently in charge of the federal government. We must not rule out the government deception hypothesis in this case. Even the leading UFOlogist, Jacques Vallee, has written a book on government deception operations in this area. They are real, and may catch us all off guard.
For the sake of being open-minded, we should at least consider the possiblity that creatures exist on other worlds, and advanced technologies may allow for interstellar travel. Deeply religion people, at the time of Columbus, were offended by the idea of traveling to the antipodes. The Bible, after all, says that the world is flat. Every flat Earther knows this. Did the discovery of America contradict the Bible? No. It merely contradicted a particular interpretation of the Bible. Would the existence of other worlds, and creatures living on other worlds, negate the Bible? We presently know that there are billions of planets presently circling billions of suns. Some say that life only exists on Earth and nowhere else. Well, the universe was made by God. Would he have made so many worlds without life? Such a view seems counter-intuitive.
I sometimes think we would rather worship our limited ideas about God, than God. There is the belief that you know when you don’t, and there is the humility of saying, “I do not know.”
I am going to ignore the question about JFK’s assassination because it is off-topic and I have dealt with this question on previous threads.
“As St. Aquinas pointed out, there were Church fathers and philosophers who thought demons have bodies. Yet here we have another theological controversy, which cannot be easily resolved.”
Do you know what in particular it was that led certain Church Fathers to believe some demons have bodies? (It seems clear that all demons cannot have bodies of their own, because of biblical stories of demon possession.)
And perhaps the universe is so vast to help us understand how small and insignificant we are, compared to God. And to underscore that despite our insignificance (and unworthiness), He still loved us enough to provide a way of redemption.
Read Aquinas’s book on Evil.
Interesting take Jeff.
No, I didn’t mean to imply that Grusch is a liar; he’s probably not. Just that I can’t get my teeth into any hard evidentiary basis, and hearsay is considered unreliable.
It’s entirely possible that yet another psyop is going on here by our Defense Dep’t: to ward off, or throw off balance, foreign adversaries who may fear that the U.S. has hidden super-tech capabilities of ferocious destructiveness.
But the notion that extraterrestrials can navigate and travel light years to earth but once here routinely crash their aircraft is, well, strange and implausible. As is the idea that demons — who undoubtedly exist in the spiritual realm — can acquire physical bodies. How? From where? And why do these “crashes” always occur under circumstances in which the Gubmint can immediately seize and secrete all the evidence? Why no crash on a residential street, or on a highway with cell phone cameras galore?
So many questions.
We should not be concerned with any conclusions about this as yet.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZDakGxOUXU
This video examines briefly the current UFO buzz, including Grusch and Blue Beam. Then he introduces interesting testimony from a Salesian exorcist, Giuseppe Tomaselli, who claims to have been told by demons that they are responsible for UFO phenomena. Fr. Tomaselli was apparently a priest of high sanctity and unimpeachable credentials. A few points are in order. First, exorcists may not engage in “exploratory” questioning of demons; they must restrict themselves to asking questions that are necessary for the liberation of the possessed victim. Secondly, demons lie like the devil. One must assume that a seasoned and experienced exorcist would be able to detect fraud, but of course, demons are very smart and very cagey. Final observations: the first demon referenced is identified as Astarte; plenty of information available about this prominent demonic figure. There is a second one mentioned, named Alida. And lastly, there is a reference to “burning a bed in Ars.” This is a reference to the great 19th century saint Jean-Marie Vianney, known as “the curé of Ars,” who was regularly persecuted physically by demons.
For your discernment.
Intriguing!
So many interesting leads to check out!
Thank you for the recommendation. I’ll order it through interlibrary loans.
About 25 years ago, I was up in my kids room reading them a book when I looked out the window and saw 3 round blue lights coming down on the driveway they went into the woods next to my house and I thought, okay, that’s strange and about 5 minutes later I saw those three lights coming out of the woods. I went to the window and saw twinkling lights coming down at the corner of my house so I ran outside and then ran right back in out of fear of being abducted. My kids were told not to go to the window but of course my oldest did and saw the twinkling lights. There were no neighbors close enough to be able to be doing this. It was the same night that there were sightings over lake Michigan although, I lived in mid- Michigan.
Could there have been an explanation for what you saw? Could it have been a flare, or balloons?
The the three circles were about baseball size with no light behind them like they were coming out of nowhere. They were slow and deliberate as they were going into the woods and back out of the woods, definitely not balloons. The twinkling lights didn’t look like a flare, they were sort of like a very large sparkler without the smoke. It looked like a cluster of twinkling stars coming at the house.I have not seen anything like this since and I have looked online for similar images.
Interesting.
This sounds similar to the Lake Michigan sightings.
Have either of you seen the Unsolved Mysteries episode on the Lake Michigan UFO sightings? Whatever it was actually appeared on radar. A local weather radar operator confirmed this. Definitely some sort of physical flying object in this case. The episode is currently available on Netflix.
What part of Lake Michigan? I live along the lake.
Eastern shore. This was back in 1994. Thousands if not tens of thousands of people witnessed it:
https://www.netflix.com/tudum/articles/unsolved-mysteries-something-in-the-sky
There is a naturally occurring phenomenon called ball lightning, there are some videos on YouTube about it, I’ve seen it once, it’s quite terrifying and amazing at the same time. Just thought I should mention it, in case others haven’t known about it.
Do you know whether ball lightning show up on radar?
I do not think so.
I have seen such blue orbs before. Definitely not alien. It’ll sound stupid, maybe insane, but there was a period in my life where I (and my mother) was being demonically attacked 3 or 4 times a week. It became so common I got used to it. To go through the full length of my experiences would probably put me in the loony bin box for most people or I’d get called a gigantic liar, but I will say that Orbs were a common theme near the final month or so of the haunting. And at the risk of being called insane, I’ll share part of the story:
Since I was getting harassed weekly, even my poor mother, it got to the point that even if I woke up to something that should, in theory, be horrifying, or if I was taking a shower and suddenly objects would get thrown violently, I would get over it after a minute (or even faster than that) and continue on my day. At that stage the behavior shifted to increasingly bizarre things, which included the orbs.
The Orbs were more annoying than horrifying. This’ll also sound bizarre, and though I’ve heard many paranormal stories, I’ve never heard one like the following: the blue orbs would zap me. On the first occasion, I was in my room watching TV, and an orb came in through the window, stopped for a second, zapped me with a bolt of electricity on my lower spine that sent my spine hurtling upward, as if I were an upside down “V”. I FLEW up out of the bed, with my spine getting the most height, and then slammed back down. (This began the process of breaking my poor bed, which would finally break after another paranormal attack, but not by an orb). When I landed in the bed, the orb immediately fled back out the window.
On the second occasion, the same thing happened, except it zapped me in the leg. The electrical pulse hit my spine, flew up half-way my spine, and then immediately dissipated. Again, I convulsed and shook the bed. The orb then fled out the window. This did not hurt me. In fact, it was actually quite pleasant.
On the third occasion, I had the distinct impression the Orb was trying… to get into me, and again it went to the spine, it seemed to attempt to enter me, which resulted in me feeling a surge of power fly up my spine, which halted again half-way up. I then prayed, in a panic that maybe I was about to get possessed, and the orb fled.
Again, the zap did not hurt. Actually, I kinda felt it was relieving my lower back pain. A very nice massage!
But what the hell it all meant, or what was the purpose, I have no idea. And if not for my mother having similar experiences, I myself would conclude that I was temporarily insane.
There is a man in North Carolina who has written about these exact same orbs, only he has made videos of them and many others have witnessed them. So you are not alone and you are not crazy. Even government officials have become involved in his case, and have talked of investigations into such things. His book is titled “UFO of God,” and he reports Marian-like apparitions connected with the orbs, giving prophecies of troubled times ahead. He was a churchgoing person, and he was thrown out of his church for seeing reporting these things. Folks accused him of playing with the occult. He insists this is not the case.
“Former U.S. officials have held secret Ukraine talks with Lavrov”:
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/former-us-officials-secret-ukraine-talks-russians-war-ukraine-rcna92610
It is deadly business to negotiate with those people.
It’s a useless endeavor as they have violated every treaty they ever signed. It would be better not to negotiate at all.
The Ukrainians walked out of so-called “peace talks” in Turkey because all Putin’s regime offered was surrender terms. Ukraine walking out was the right thing to do.
This has been the consistent theme of Russian peace offers. They want to eat Ukraine in stages, if they cannot swallow whole at one gulp.
@K, I wanted to reply to your question above this, but it wouldn’t let me. Jeff is correct. It would not be detected by lightning detectors or radar systems that are already in place. It would be great if someone can film it firsthand with a thermal or IR camera though. Believe it or not, EarthSky has an article on it from none other than the Russian Academy of Sciences, peer reviewed in 2019, published by Vladimir Torchigin in the journal Optik. It’s an interesting article regarding this phenomenon, the article mentions it may not be in the same category as everyday lightning. https://earthsky.org/earth/ball-lightning-lightning-atmosphere-earth-optik/
Mr. Nyquist, I would like to take the liberty to put something out there: Since Olavo de Carvalho passed away on early 2022, especially, there has been from my personal experience a rise in anecdotal instances/evidences of antiamericanist trends in Brazil on the part of either conservatives or conservatives in the sense of Eurasianism sympathizers, and a sensible disinterest on the part of conservatives to defend America or align Brazil with America.
For instance a conservative historian/influencer, interviewed by famous podcasters, Mr. Marcelo Andrade, is selling or giving out a series of online lectures (as his advertising pieces explain) which, among others, attempt to debunk the myth that America was a consistent or sufficient obstacle or rival to communism, and some of his lectures is about how he purports the American founding fathers to have been not the heroes or excellent men American propaganda would have you believe etc. Mr Andrade argued in an interview that one of Bolsonaro’s flaws was his pro-Americanism.
Olavo de Carvalho inculcated on his students the idea they could profitably become more familiar with the American commonfolk values and ethos (this can be seen in his remarkable interest in the works of novelists like Faulkner or Hubert Selby Jr. etc.). That suggestion of his is the reason why I myself examined carefully some Carter Family songs he made a list of. There are many positive sides to America that people overlook. I myself spent, many years ago, some time in Wisconsin and I think from that experience Americans are some of the most gentle caring people there is.
The point is there is a public in Brazil hungry for pro-American culture-related content, and they are let to starve. You could perhaps sell lectures via digital marketing techniques (I know it may sound like an extravagant idea and be inapplicable for your particular circumnstance or inclination, but as far as brainstorming goes this doesn’t sound so bad to me) with an alternative pro-American content. In any case, anyone doing this right now in Brazil could potentially make a lot of money.
“I think from that experience Americans are some of the most gentle caring people there is.”
Thank you Pedro. There are still many good people in America.
You’re welcome. It is true.
Pedro: Anti-Americanism goes with antisemitism, ultra-conservatism, communism, Nazism, etc. In fact, anything ideological, in itself, seems to be anti-American, including today’s brand of liberalism and libertarianism (which claim to represent American “values”). At present, authentic American culture, in terms of content, mostly refers to things produced in the past, or reproduced from the past; for American culture has been submerged by its counterculture enemy, and by the “multiculture” — which is not American at all. If I embarked on essays showing America’s beautiful past, or American history, I would be failing to consider America by the standard which asks, “What is America becoming” instead of what it once was. A further question might be asked: “If America dies, does it go to heaven?” A country is not a person. It is a context, carefully and lovingly formed by generations of people. But now we see that this process is no longer loving or careful in large part, but has become something very different.
As an American I cherish certain memories and folkways, which may or may not be restored; but in the matter of presentation, I am not an undertaker with embalming fluid at the ready. My concern is with the living, with that part of the country that continues into the future. The past is an oracle with regard to the future, but who is able to read that oracle? I have tried to read it, but all I get is a terrifying vision of disorders and wars to come. This is unpleasant, but must be presented. I agree that whatever is most valuable in the past, should be preserved. But as I have written elsewhere, it is ridiculous to be a conservative with nothing left to conserve. The stock of things that are left is low, indeed. And much of this is due to the hurricane that is our digital media, television, movies, and latter-day education. Here is a leveling wind, which leaves nothing standing. The minds of those affected are empty and dysfunctional in ways I could not have imagined when I began writing Origins in 1987. It is worse and always worse, with disappointment heaped on disappointment.
Sad to say, but we are almost certain to have a military dictator in this country. And we may have more than one country where there is now one country. And if our enemies in Beijing and Moscow prevail, there will be nothing here but corpses and rubble, and a Second China. Seeing this possibility, would you spend all your time selling Americana because people in Brazil want to buy it?
When you are facing an existential crisis, and everything is being swept away in preparation for it, what do you say? What do you tell people? There has to be something truthful and wise that is born in the moment. Of course, you can refer to the past, or the present, or the future. But you must not do that with blinders on, or with a profit motive, or with any ulterior motive at all.
We Americans have been false to ourselves in many things, but in our motives we have been terrible destroyers. We have lied to ourselves, which is the most dangerous kind of lying. We have been bad stewards and flatterers of persons and ideas we only pretended to respect. This grand commercial mob has only the most tenuous connection with its own past, and perhaps none with its own future. I am not here for a rewrite of “Little House on the Prairie” or to wish Johnboy “goodnight.” I grew up with those messages, with that last attempt via television to nurture the past. But what kind of past was it? I think Henry Adams described it in the most pessimistic terms imaginable. Mine is not a tourist shop at the end of history, selling Americana for money. I am sure Washington Irving has been translated into Portuguese. Make a new translation of his books if that will sell in Brazil. But I do not think it will.
I was born in 1954. The country I grew up in is gone forever. As always, our only hope is in God.
During the Olavo versus Dugin debate Olavo’s statistical data and numbers showing America is an extraordinarily charitable country, from way back until the point in time even as they were speaking (2011), was so impressive a data demonstration that Dugin not only didn’t dispute its accuracy in any way but ended up claiming simply that “facts don’t matter” or words to that effect.
During the debate Olavo admitted a lot of American charities had been taken over by government substitute organizations, as part of a socialist trend that (just as Bezmenov indicated) has had the effect of breaking people apart and making society worse.
To tell the story of what America is becoming one has to tell the story of what it was. A country does not go to heaven, but each country is a potential door to heaven, each country is a mirror image of the one country which endures forever. Some Catholic saints or pious persons long ago loved America and saw it as a door to heaven, such as John Thayer or Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini.
Because the situation in America is so impactful this is arguably one reason to recede strategically from it a bit; to see a tragedy from a distance can make one appreciate it in new fruitful ways. Lenin said “revolutions” are made from exile, and he certainly did make a revolution from exile. Olavo picked up on that, followed this advice and confirmed he only began to influence Brazil and make his educational influence work out when he receded from Brazil to America. You don’t or wouldn’t necessarily have to move or dedicate most of your energy to put out some content to a new audience; however perhaps this much taking a break would allow for a renewed assessment.
In that movie Amistad the former president John Quincy Adams says what is capital in conveying an important message is to tell the story properly. The story of American degeneration in the context of Communist advance can be told in a way that is misleading and favours communism, but it can also be told in a way that is not intended to put people in a devilish transe but free people from it, putting people on a quest to courage. A lot of the anti-americanism going on in Brazil is people in a sort of devilish transe. If you compare even contemporary literature, such as Ethan Hawke’s novel Ash Wednesday with the ordinary official political talking points, it is clear there is a disconnect between the country in its ordinary people’s dreams and character (howsoever degenerate and subject to influences it doesn’t understand) and what the standard perception of the country is. If language doesn’t help describe reality you have a transe-like state, you have hypnosis.
According to Elena Aielo’s purported prophecy on Russia, she an Italian religious of repute in the middle of the 20th century, Russia would March on all of Europe and would battle America with its secret armies. She predicted it in the late fifties, give or take. If this is supposed to happen countries demoralized by communism will possibly have only America as an example of a country which is actually putting up a fight against communism. This means America will be the only country to rally around to fight against communism. And if this is true, it would be a beautiful patriotic duty to begin rallying [in a way] people to prepare for that moment, by simply telling them the truth. I propose a further analogy: Frederick Barbarossa, Holy Roman Emperor, raised a crusade and ended up involuntarily having to conquer the Byzantine Empire (because he was attacked, it is said) to carry on his March toward the Levant. Instead of retaining the Byzantine territory on his grip, he dispensed with it. This had an overall detrimental effect on crusaders in general afterwards, some argue, the point being sometimes you have to stray a little from an envisaged goal in order to carry it out.
There is an audience waiting to be given guidance on what to think on America and being encouraged to think of it positively, there is a lot of orphans here in that sense. The revenue from selling this worthwhile content can be invested back in patriotic projects back at home, like a documentary, the late documentary Hostage to the Devil seems to have been very modest a project but did well.
Perhaps you are right. What do I know? I don’t mean to be pushy, nor would I feel disappointed if the suggestion be declined.
I will think about what you suggested.
Mr Nyquist, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the contacts you may have acquired from the Brazilian milieu were to rush to assist you in the suggested enterprise, like in providing a crew of volunteers to help out in some of the work needed, or providing news outlets backing. I reckon it wouldn’t be difficult to find people/an environment resentful of the rising crypto-Eurasianist rhetoric against the US in Brazil, and open to have a counterpoint to that.
I wrote a long piece on Dugin.
Since there is finished material to be given as part of the hypothetical course on American-related subjects to be advertised, there would be little work to do to organize the material other than translate it or condense it or refurbish it a bit into a series of booklets; and/or edit a video series with calibrated images or footages structures rehashing a version of the booklets content, to give the package even more appeal. You could also have a few conferences with subtitles and a panel. Possibly one of those folks from the now extinct Terça-Livre news channel in Brazil would find this project doable?
I indicated the opinion the Brazilian public needs a shaking up with the US as a subject-matter. I guess the key is Brazilians love themselves a good politically incorrect truth to feel encouraged, and for a long time that’s what Olavo de Carvalho provided them. For example, the Brazilian public was for a long time impressed with the notion the Illuminist authors were a formidable ideological rival to the prestige of religious authority, in the conflict of religion versus reason. Olavo demonstrated [somewhat almost cruelly] with
literary ability and facts that all Illuminists were esotericists (just as Sir Isaac Newton, whose physics theories Voltaire wrote about to a considerable degree), to whom “reason” had a sort of mystical and usually insuspected definition; and Olavo cited as sources a list of reputable books (such as “Age of Minerva”, Paul Ilie) no one in the Brazilian circles seemed to have heard of. This Olavo politically correct take on the matter seemingly changed all kinds of elements of the Brazilian cultural landscape, it made all kinds of paradigms sink. And this in turn gave Brazilians a taste for or a sense of delight in the politically incorrect when expressed in an overwhelming but careful way.
It seems taking a pro-American position/stance would be just the thing in a situation like the current one, in way of reviving or taking up the torch of this kind of intervention.
If only anti-Americanism could be taken as seriously as the Enlightenment. It simply consists of distortions and slanders that are continually spread by dishonest enemies.
So why haven’t we been back to the moon, Jeff?
And when has the human race ever decided after any kind of success, to halt any type of exploration?
You ask often, why would our “adversaries” cooperate with us on this or that, as if a “reason” that feels adequate to you for said cooperation doesn’t exist, and therefore cooperation isn’t a reasonable conclusion.
Who knows why, to so many questions. The fact of the matter, however, is that world governments who are ostensibly adversaries on many levels, coordinate their efforts all time.
Covid comes to mind, as a recent example, but far more instructive is the weather warfare being waged on us all these past 75 years through geo-engineering. While the US DOD is the primary player, all major militaries are involved.
Or do you dispute this?
Let’s see if I understand your statement. You want me to comment on why we have not gone back to the moon. I heard on the radio the other day that we are going back to the moon — by the end of this decade. You then ask a number of rhetorical questions which suggests to me that you don’t believe human beings have landed on the moon. Am I guessing correctly?
You then put words in my mouth, to the effect that I am always asking why our “adversaries” would cooperate with us “as if a ‘reason’ that feels adequate to you for said cooperation doesn’t exist, and therefore cooperation isn’t a reasonable conclusion.”
You are saying that the Pentagon is waging weather war on the American people.
Weather control isn’t the only issue.
Aluminum sulfide (and other metals) nanoparticles are being sprayed for solar masking. But aluminum is also a desiccant. It blocks the respiratory stomata on leaves and is toxic to root systems. So, it kills forests.
Another issue is wildfires. The aluminum dessicant is also a means of intensifying wildfires when used as a tool of war. I’ve seen the original Forest Service paper (1990’s) developing procedures for wildfire control warfare tactics. I can’t remember for sure who commissioned the paper, but I believe it was DOD.
Also, aluminum passes through the brain barrier in humans with negative health
effects. So, they may be poisoning us from the air. Twenty-to-forty million tons per year!
The problem is secrecy and Reinette Senum has a lawsuit in California to try to get early disclosure on the spraying.
Jeremy: Is this a guessing game where you ask rhetorical questions and I try to guess what the gotcha is? Let’s see. You ask why we haven’t been back to the moon. You apparently know the answer and would like me to reveal my ignorance. You hint that something made us “halt our exploration of the moon.” You also hint, by these same rhetorical questions, that the nations are actually in league. I suppose it must be on account of an extraterrestrial menace of some kind. Am I translating all these rhetorical questions correctly?
Last but not least, you come out of left field with a statement that the Pentagon is the “primary player” in geo-engineering the weather. Then you ask whether I dispute this, as if it would be outrageous if I disputed it.
Maybe it would be easier if you simply explained what you believe, presenting references or proofs that would allow me to read up on it. As I am not a meteorologist studied in such things, there is not much I can say at present without more information (since I am not familiar with your sources or claims).
Jeff-
I re-read my comment. There are only two questions. “Who knows why…”, wasn’t a question. And the second certainly isn’t rhetorical. Many would and do dispute my assertion of high level government cooperation amongst seeming adversaries. I suggest that both the lockstep worldwide government response to covid, and the geoengineering worldwide are evidence of this collusion. I assumed since the upper atmosphere aerosol injections laid down in grid patterns across the globe have been clearly visible for decades, that you were already familiar with the phenomenon. It seems I am wrong. Please go to geoengineeringwatch.org and consume the data there. And listen to Dane Wigingtons weekly bad news broadcast for a ton of erudite observation. For starters.
And I am clearly stating that we are under attack by the DOD. Both covid and weather warfare. The paper trail is clear on both accounts. What isn’t clear is who initiated both programs and how does the global cooperation between all nations work. And what does that mean as regards what is really happening in the world, for instance in Ukraine.
As far as the moon landing goes, I did ask a rhetorical question, I suppose. If we had landed on the moon, why did we stop landing on the moon? Why didn’t we build bases and set up facilities? If you can land humans, you can land anything. More importantly, if you can return from the moon. So no space race? We went. We stopped. The whole world lost interest. Sounds like fiction to me.
The Van Allen belt. Since we “last went to the moon”, no human being of any nationality has even gotten near the Van Allen belt. The space shuttle, if memory serves, only travelled a third of the way there. All for good reason. Too much radiation, with apparently, no technology available to shield a human being adequately. That would be a rational explanation.
Also points towards cooperation and coordination.
I made no reference overtly or by inference to “aliens”. I don’t know who holds the leash. All that is beyond my intellectual capacity at this time. However, clearly there is a leash, and those on the end of it come to heel when commanded. Full stop.
Jeremy: Anyone who reads history knows that adversaries cooperate when their interests coincide, that conflict is rarely continuous and uninterruped. But, does that mean the USSR and the USA conspired to cover up America’s fake moon landings?
The problem I have with your larger formulation is its lack of clarity. You say, “we are under attack by the DOD.” You state this clearly enough, but it is yet unclear; for the DOD is 1.3 million people. Surely you are not proposing that 1.3 million people are attacking their own society. An attack in this sense is a conscious and planned activity. Surely, these 1.3 million are not consciously attacking their own society. This leads me to ask what you mean by using the three letters, DOD? Adding to this confusion you say, “I don’t know who holds the leash. All that is beyond my intellectual capacity at this time.” But if you do not know who is holding the leash, why blame the poor animal signified by the letters DOD?
Can there be a metaphorical leash big enough to control the 1.3 million people who work for DOD, who have sworn an oath of allegiance to defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic? Is there some nefarious group capable of siccing those 1.3 million people on the rest of us? Does history actually work this way? It would be more credible, I think, to write about money laundering, narcotics trafficking, or foreign intelligence services using such methods to corrupt and entrap named DOD officials. Such would be an actual leash. But then, what keeps this leash from breaking?
What is not obvious to me, or obvious to anyone who reads your thread, is how this alleged attack on America by the DOD is connected with the supposed fake moon landings. Mind you, you are NOT alleging one fake transitting of the Van Allen belts by American astronauts, but nine fake transitting of the belts.
This idea that the Apollo astronauts did not pass through the Van Allen belt is hardly a new allegation. I heard it 24 years ago from an editor I worked for. Perhaps you can explain to me what is wrong with this article on how the astronauts were safely brought through the Van Allen belts: https://science.thewire.in/the-sciences/apollo-11-van-allen-radiation-belts-translunar-injection/
Of real significance, this article contains a 27 July 2004 letter to Dr. James Van Allen, for whom the Van Allen belts were named. The letter is from Jay Windley and says, “I am an engineer who has assembled a web site http://www.clavius.org that answers the ludicrous claims that the Apollo missions to the moon were hoaxed. As you are well aware, one of those claims states that it is impossible for human astronauts to pass safely through the Van Allen belts, as the Apollo astronauts did. A year or so ago, I was handed a copy of a letter you had written to someone else in which you stated, among other things, ‘THE RECENT FOX TV SHOW, WHICH I SAW, IS AN INGENIOUS AND ENTERTAINING ASSEMBLAGE OF NONSENSE. THE CLAIM THAT RADIATION EXPOSURE DURING THE APOLLO MISSIONS WOULD HAVE BEEN FATAL TO THE ASTRONAUTS IS ONLY ONE EXAMPLE OF SUCH NONSENSE.’”
There, on the copy of Mr. Windley’s letter, is the handwriting of Dr. Van Allen, with Van Allen’s signature. It says, “This is a completely correct quotation from my letter.”
I am not a space scientist, so I cannot comment on the lethality of the Van Allen belt. But Dr. Van Allen is qualified to comment on this claim. And I would assume he is the person who knows best. Unless and until you can impeach Dr. Van Allen as a fraud, a revision of your claims is in order. By the way, if Dr. Van Allen is a fraud, then we are left with nothing to say whatsoever about the belts named after him. In the event Van Allen is discreditable, are the Van Allen belts even real? (Forgive me, but this is the kind of thing you end up with by following down this road.)
Until you can deal with these facts. Until you can write with greater clarity and factual precision, I am left in great doubt that you have any verifiable revelations about the Apollo Program or the DOD. The Apollo spacecraft were allegedly given shielding sufficient for safety during their brief transitting of the belt. Why would this be untrue? The path of the Apollo spacecraft was through a “minimum exposure trajectory.” Do you have any reason to doubt this?
As you probably know, the Soviet Union was in a position to expose the moon landings as fraudulent. All they had to do was place an orbiter over the Apollo landing sites to see if the vehicle and human tracks from the missions were there. In fact, India, China and Japan have flown over the Apollo landing sites. None of these countries have produced evidence that the moon landings were faked. Later NASA missions took photograhs from space of the landing sites, and the tracks were clearly visible. Of course, you will say that these pictures were also fakes. But how many people are allegedly party to this fraud? Decade after decade, there is risk of exposure. Yet no whistleblower has emerged to tell the tale. Isn’t this statistically improbable?
What is more probable, in your judgment? Is it more likely that a massive fraud has been perpetrated successfully for more than half a century? That this fraud was not exposed or detected by America’s space-faring enemies or other countries? Or is it more likely that a series of false claims regarding the Van Allen belts, lighting, and camera angles, has persuaded you of something that is less and less likely after a closer look?
Please be clear and reasonable in your further replies.
Why hasn’t Russia or China gone to moon? It costs a lot of money to go to the moon and we already did it once. We are going again with a next generation of technology. Technology is extremely costly to create, and also to preserve and maintain. We went with old technology; we’ll go again with new technology. To give a simple analogy, one may soon realize this when tasked with having to create a carburetor for a car once electric cars phase them out. One might think, why bother making the carburetor, it’s old, too costly, and too complicated.
Jeff-
My better self informs me not to insult you, but my primal self wants to shout that you are an unconscionable fraud. He who doth protest. You wrote nearly 10 times the words I wrote, and like is your m.o. you also insulted me directly in every one of your three missives.
Any insult I levied at you was veiled(not that that is better, just different).
I won’t even pretend to retort your nonsense. Look up. You didn’t even use your verbosity to address what matters most. Weather warfare or the covid bioweapon attack on the human race. Who do you work for? And that is not rhetorical. Who? You are either a fraud or you are owned. Who owns you? Those are direct questions. And you have no chance against my intellect. I challenge you to a debate. Anytime.
Do you have the nuts?
Mr. Jeremy: I have already attempted a rational discussion with you, and you just slapped me in the face by attacking me personally. Please answer my challenge instead of hurtling ridiculous insults. You said the astronauts could not survive passing through the Van Allen belts. I quoted Dr. Van Allen himself, saying this was nonsense. I am still waiting for your answer. Do you have one? Because if you don’t, then you have been wasting my time. If you have this great intellect, please show me the courtesy of making a substantive reply. I am not an unreasonable person.
And Jeff(the second of my replies) I want Mike Adams to be the moderator. I trust him and as far as I know, he still thinks you are authentic. Again, do you have the nuts?
In case you missed it, that is a direct question, and I assume my meaning is clear, so you don’t have to “guess”.
Mr. Keller: I asked you a few questions about your thesis. These questions were, in fact, a golden opportunity for you to explain why the generally accepted view of the Apollo missions might be wrong. But you have now refused to enlighten me. You have even broken the common rules of courtesy by making personally insulting remarks. Amazingly, you admitted that your first comments to me contained “veiled insults.” Of course, I could see you were trying to insult me. That high-handed, 30,000-foot style you affected, as if you were standing atop Mt. Olympus, was so pointlessly pompous and bloated that I could not tell what your thesis actually was. I would be perfectly happy to debate you with Mike Adams as the moderator, provided you refrain from insults.
Just found this highly interesting half-hour interview with Annie Jacobsen of 2019. She has some impressive things to say:
Thank you for posting. This segment of Joe Rogan interviewing Annie Jacobsen is not the segment I have referred to in the past about UFOs, where she discusses Roswell as a Stalin’s “war of the worlds” operation. In the segment you posted, she discusses CIA assassinations. Jacobsen’s attitude toward assassinations is typical of most people today. She says about assassinations, “I could moralize, right or wrong, and it would just be my opinion….” She concludes that assassinating people “is necessary” because assassinations stop wars and save soldiers’ from injury and death. So she offers an opinion after suggesting morality is nothing more than opinion. So let us examine her opinion: The claim that assassinations stop wars and save lives is not provable. It is based on the idea that if someone assassinated Hitler, World War II would have been prevented. Therefore, it is perfectly justifiable to murder someone if you determine he is “dangerous.”
As a proposition, this formula is an absurdity. First, the people ordering the assassination of a “dangerous” person cannot know if a worse person will ultimately take their place. Human beings do not possess that level of knowledge. Therefore, nobody can rationally say how many deaths are prevented by murdering one bad person. Second, by murdering a human being you become a murderer, plain and simple. You have accepted the logic of unlawful killing. In that moment, how far are you from moral nihilism? If you should prevail in politics and war through such methods, does God smile on you? At the very least, you have renounced honorable conduct. At the worst, you are on the road to being Hitler in your own right.
Just finished watching Jeff’s most recent interview on Tommy’s Podcast. Wanted to post it here in case anyone missed it. Very interesting listening:

It seems as if Lee Penn’s enormous book, published in 2004, False Dawn: The United Religions Initiative, Globalism, and the Quest for a One-World Religion, is becoming more relevant than ever before:
https://archive.org/details/FalseDawnLeePenn/page/n3/mode/2up?view=theater
Thank you, Contemplative Observer! I read a quote this morning that made me think of you: 🙂
“I wish you music to help with the burdens of life, and to help you release your happiness to others.”
LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN
Even better than Herbert von Karajan’s notorious cataleptic Teutonism:
Bravissimo! 🙂 Music touches the soul, doesn’t it? Longfellow said it’s the universal language of mankind. Love it!
C.O., for your previous two posts, it says “Unable to show this comment.”
If music only “touches” the soul, then something must be wrong either with the music or with the soul.
Have you ever heard of Beethoven’s heartbreaking Heiligenstadt Testament of 1802? Tormented by the prospect of ending up in total deafness, which then became brutal reality, he was close to taking his life. Luckily, he didn’t, lived on for another 25 years and gave the world so many more marvellous works.
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Heiligenstadt_Testament
Wow! No, I had never read that before. It brought tears to my eyes and made me even more thankful for all the beauty he shared in spite of his pain.
That is quite a story. The deaf composure who could not hear and yet could give us music.
Jeff, I asked the question about who would arrest the pro Putin group because i am trying to figure this out. With Biden really a pro Putin communist then to me this is confusing. On one hand the current administration is so Marxist/ communist but on the other you have an administrative group fighting against Putin. It gives me some hope to think that the group against Putin will be in charge if there were a nuclear explosion. However, is this same group also against CCP China? Are they against Putin and Russia but not Communism? I guess I was wondering if the people reading your blog were the only anti Putin people left to do the arresting. Lol
I would hope that our intelligence services are running a scam on Russia and China, using Biden as the scammer and chief. But I do not think this is the case. I suspect, rather, that Marxists have gotten into the White House through Obama and Biden, and they have put their kind in many positions with the Federal Government — like the FBI, Justice Department, and CIA. This reportedly happened under Obama. Marxists working for the revolution in conjunction with Russia and China need cover, I think, and began making anti-Russian noises in 2013 or so, just before the events in Ukraine went against Russia. But they did nothing to stop or reverse Moscow’s aggression against Ukraine at the time, and gave no weapons to Ukraine. Only Trump did that, and he was supposed to be Putin’s puppet. This is odd indeed. When Russia had already lost the invasion last year, Biden began giving weapons. At first, small arms and ammunition. Later the adminstration was forced to send a few heavier items. Blackmailing Biden, or calling him out, became a kind of sport for Poland and the U.K. Congress was also pushing Biden to send help to Ukraine, so what choice did he have? Someone with his scandal problems could not give himself away by blocking aid to Ukraine. But he definitely slow-walked the aid to Ukraine. This comes from many sources, including former Vice President Pence. So Biden has helped in such a slow manner, and with “defensive” weapons, so that Ukraine has never been given the tools to win the war, though some NATO countries have poured in the tanks, which has enabled an offensive of limited type (without air power). If we gave Ukraine longer range rocket rounds for the HIMARS, the war would be over this summer. I do not think Biden will allow it. But who knows whether he is under pressure from people who have intelligence on him.
If pressure on Biden will get it done, I hope somebody puts his gonads in a vice. I really do.
@JRNyquist: Here is a counterfactual for you: How do you think conditions would be different in the Ukraine-Russia conflict if Trump were president now, instead of Biden?
I’ve been meaning to ask you this question for a while.
That is hard to answer because Trump is such an unpredictable person. The Russians would have been more successful if they had invaded Ukraine during Trump’s presidency because Ukraine was weaker. But then, Trump’s reaction would have been difficult to predict, and the risks would have been greater in terms of a direct American intervention. Perhaps Russia waited to invade Ukraine in Biden’s second year in office because they knew he would not respond aggressively.

It’s interesting, to me at least, that it supposedly started around the time that China formed a ‘secret’ pact or alliance with Russia to destroy the U.S., according to Jeff’s information.
Interesting.
When that “potential” spy base began making headlines, I told someone there has probably already been one for years.
Almost posted this. Why is this not a surprise.
CMA, have you ever watched a drone show? This sounds like an effect that coordinated drones could produce.
That is very interesting. I have never considered that and don’t know what kind of drones they had back in 1994.
Hi Jeff,
I will go through what I think below on the subject of aliens, briefly to simply link them to what the bible refers to as angels and demons and also their origin and purpose again trying to link this to Christian thinking.
I hold the opinion that the modern definition of aliens as being off-world entities from another world is correct placing aliens being within our dimensional universe. The bible refers to bene Elohim or sons of God who interact with our world either as angels and demons and I think these beings are also what we refer to as aliens. I will stick to the opinion that what we call aliens are in fact the angels and demons of ancient belief systems.
The bible describes interactions between humans and angels including interactions between the virgin Mary and Gabriel and the prophet Daniel and Gabriel. These indicate that angels appear to us as humans and have a limited ability to either incarnate in a human body or to temporarily take over a human body. I move towards the former in my thinking as I believe there is an ability to bi-locate or for an entity to be in multiple physical places at the same time.
The bible describes interactions between humans and unclean spirits particularly in the new testament where the unclean spirits take over human bodies and need to be driven out. Beyond a certain point the demons or unclean spirits require rites (prayer and fasting) to remove them from people or places. I think what we call haunting or possessing spirits are very low level spirits who sit underneath a hierarchy of wickedness.
I think the origin of aliens is related to the constellations. I hold the opinion that a class of angels / demons are stars or manifest their physical being as stars with an ability to bilocate and take on another form at the same time. The bible refers to the creation of constellations and stars and signs in the sky when God created the universe and separated light from darkness.
If angels are related to constellations one possibility is the angels or a class of angels with command over other angels were assigned to guide humanity in our infancy. Remember we are a very young race, even if you don’t believe in the creation story in Genesis our civilisation is barely 10,000 years old a blink in terms of the universe. So it may be possible that certain angels referred to as watchers were given the task of guiding humanity.
The book of Enoch is not canonical in most traditions but it is worth reading to get some background to the bible. I think it wasn’t included as it was more of a mythical account, which means the events quite likely happened but there were not enough details given to verify against other sources. But this gives us a reasonable account of an early interaction between humans and what we now call demons or devils. In the case of the book of Enoch there are described 200 watchers who descended to Mt Hermon in Israel, took an oath and married human women to create a angel/human hybrid race called the Nephilim. As part of their wickedness they taught us technology that we are not ready for leading to the great wickedness on the earth that led to the great flood. As a punishment for their sins they were banished to Tartarus till the day of judgement with Tartarus being a place of total darkness and possibly a custom built prison for angels.
I think our world is a gateway world between dimensions with two named dimensions we know about being Heaven and Hell (or Shoel). We know from the story of Jacobs ladder that there does exist a stairway to heaven that angels walk up and down on. Is it possible that the motivation of the fallen angels (or aliens) is to overtake our world and capture this stairway?
There are some strange things in ancient books.
Sheol was the Hebrew word for the under world. It included paradise and torments. After the resurrection of Christ, it had only one, torments, or hell, if you will.
Sometimes you’re Quartermaster and sometimes ohengineer?
Jeff, Aleksandr Dugin‘s book, “The Fourth Political Theory” put forward the idea that the alt-right and extreme left could join forces to overthrow the government in a given country. It was my understanding that Russia was trying to put this theory into practice here in the United States. But now you’re saying that those in the alt-right movement who are pro-Putin could potentially be arrested and thrown into prison. Would the attempt to unite the extreme left and alt-right here in the US be abandoned at that point?
This is dialectical, so it involves both dividing and conquering, and uniting to rule. OF course they will ultimately unite the far left and right, but only after they have arrested those leading right and left individuals, who they do not control, but who they have hoodwinked and manipulated into taking positions which justify their arrest.

Yes, it does come from the communists. But Chinese scientists are now publicly warning of global cooling.
This is strange. Did Russia change their strategy?
“Putin troops ‘fake out’ Ukraine as they plant ‘false explosives’ at nuclear station”
https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1788322/Putin-troops-explosives-nuclear-plant
What change?
Why plant fake explosives if you really intend to blow up the power plant? Did the Russians give up on this strategy of blowing it up, since there was so much public attention, and they were almost certainly going to be the ones blamed if it happened?
Or was the threat of blowing up ZNPP always just a diversion, when the real attack is about to come from Belarus?
Or do you still think they plan to blow it up?
Threatening to blow something up can be a bluff.
But Russia wasn’t ever threatening to blow it up, they were claiming the Ukrainians were going to bomb it or attack it with drones. Then reports came out that Russia had secretly mined it. So why would Russia then plant fake explosives? To me, this makes no sense. Perhaps the entire story is bogus.
To place dummy explosives on a facility is a threat. It presents the threat visually. In fact, it is a more terrifying form of threat because “seeing is believing.”
Budanov (Ukraine’s military intelligence chief) said the alleged Russia threat to the nuclear power plant was “decreasing” but wouldn’t offer any details.
Something smells!
“Sorry I can’t tell you what happened recently but the fact is that the threat is decreasing,” he said. “This means that at least we have all together with joint efforts somehow postponed a technogenic catastrophe.”
This is good news. The Kremlin was either bluffing, or has changed course.
Or could it be that it was being uses to coerce European and/or American officials to “negotiate” with Russian “on behalf of Ukraine”?
I read yesterday or the day before that some U.S. officials were doing that (no names were mentioned).
So the Russian threat against the ZPP (threat by Russian trolls putting out that Ukraine was going to blow it up in order that Russia be blamed) could have been meant to get European (and American) officials to basically undermine/abandon Ukraine. This could have been to give leaders compromised or controlled by Russia and the Communist bloc, an apparently “reasonable” pretext to try to get Ukraine to surrender or otherwise undermine Ukraine.
But this goes against the Russians’ own narrative, that the Ukrainians are the ones who are going to destroy the nuclear plant.
The Russians offer different narratives to effect different people at different levels. Their many narratives never align.
@PrayingInOK I take that as good news! Perhaps the Russians have changed their strategy and decided not to try to frame Ukraine for destroying the plant. The Western media did a good job of calling them out.
It’s all like a big, deadly game to them. They mean to isolate and destroy Ukraine by hook or by crook. They could very well have certain European and/or American leadership assets now engaged in talks with Russia on how to get Ukraine to quit fighting.
Hence, “the situation is de-scalating.”
Could be a statement meant to be understood only by certain people, like Western officials who may be “negotiating” with Russia through back channels or behind closed doors.
Jeff, that is a good observation. Yes, their narratives often contradict, so why should this instance be any different?
The complexity of this information sphere is not easy to navigate.
The word is from the IAEA and I don’t trust them. They also said Saddam Hussein had no nuke program when he actually did.
Yes, we have to be careful.
Excellent point, they were scheming to use them too, that is what forced us to act quickly.
My personal belief is that it was a bluff and here is why I believe that to be the case. Nuclear power plant containment vessels are the part of the facility where the reactor is contained and where all of the nuclear magic happens. The reactors themselves are incredibly durable but the containment building is built of steel reinforced concrete that is several feet thick and are built to withstand the direct impact of an airliner and an almost direct hit from a nuclear weapon.
I don’t see how planting some explosives on the containment building would do much good and shelling the buildings with artillery would be almost useless as well. Consider the German Valentin U-boat facility near Bremen. The building had a15′ thick reinforced concrete roof that was only penetrated by a British 22,000lb Grand Slam bomb dropped from somewhere over 12,000 feet above the target. The bomb was designed to penetrate that level of concrete and it is believed that it only made it through 8 feet of concrete.
All of this to say, I do not believe that the plant is able to be destroyed buy placing explosives all over the place, it would take a lot more to destroy something built as these buildings are built.
The spent fuel storage area is a different thing altogether though. The spent fuel casks aren’t built as tough but are still pretty much indestructible. I would think that it would be possible for those to be attacked and the attack to be successful.
My opinion is that this was all a bluff or a game with the goal of stirring peoples emotions. People’s emotions get a little worked up when the words “nuclear power plant” and “attack” are in the same sentence and I believe this was just that, a game that the Russians were using to mess with people’s emotions.
But… I could be wrong. What little I know about nuclear power plants comes from a life long curiosity in power plants and is based on my limited knowledge of western designs and construction standards and the Russians aren’t know for maintaining high quality in anything. They could blow the place up tomorrow.
Thank you for sharing that. I think it’s being used as nuclear blackmail, and to give European and American officials an excuse to abandon Ukraine (along with giving them cluster munitions).
However, what do you think about rigging it to explode from the inside?
I’ve been thinking about that for a while now. I’m not sure how that would go down but it seems like it would still not work very well unless they used a massive amount of explosives. Of course everything in the reactor building could be wrecked and that might cause other issues, kinda like the Fukishima nuclear powerplant, but the damage wouldn’t be visible to the outside world.
According to Wikipedia, the powerplant is being operated by a Russian state owned nuclear power company Rosatom, so I guess if the Russians were running the place then they would be able to get people into the containment buildings in order to set whatever charges they would need to set and in what ever quantity that they wanted and then blame Ukraine on the explosion, but it seems to me that it would make the Russians look even more incompetent if the Ukrainians were able to destroy a reactor from the inside of plant, which is not only surrounded by the Russian military but is also under the operational management of a Russian state owned Russian company.
I think that people imagine Chernobyl when these topics are brought up and folks don’t know that most nuclear power plants are not like Chernobyl. The Chernobyl reactor itself exploded internally from hydrogen and steam generation and was not a nuclear explosion, but there was no containment vessel around the reactor. The reactor itself was the containment vessel, so when it exploded it blew the 1000 ton reactor lid off of the reactor, scattered a large amount of the the reactor itself all over the place, and destroyed the entire reactor building and did so with so much heat and intensity that the reactor itself, which was made of graphite, started to burn. Combating that fire in the open and cleaning up all of the exploded reactor graphite chunks is what killed so many fire fighters. People remember those images and the death tool and then get emotional about nuclear power plants.
Western style reactors are large, thick steel pressure vessels that are full of water and if exploded, would breech the reactor and dump water everywhere. This would cause severe problems inside the containment vessel, but they would still be inside the vessel.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to geek out on all of this and would keep going but I prolly shouldn’t keep going as this is becoming I’m starting to ramble and I can keep going about these things… Again, I’m no expert but I have a understanding of how these things work and wanted to share my thoughts. Maybe someone with a better understanding will comment and help the conversation along in a constructive manner.
Off-topic, but of interest: https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/07/06/report-joe-biden-to-supply-ukraine-with-controversial-cluster-bombs/
I’ve wondered if sending Ukraine these controversial weapons is a way to appear to be supporting them while also reinforcing the story that they are corrupt and inhumane to use such weapons.
@Kris L interesting theory!
If a gun is pointed and fired at me, and I shoot back, that’s inhumane? I’m corrupt for trying to live? I don’t understand, maybe you meant to say something else.
I think Kris was referring to the cluster ordinance, which may be given to Ukraine so that criticisms might be thereafter disingenuously launched. There are, believe it or not, politically incorrect weapons. And these weaponsa are not as effective as precision rounds — like the HIMAR rocket rounds.
However, Ukraine is in great need of heavy weaponry, and will take what they can get. Kris L has a great point. We won’t send more Himars, or F16s, or the like, but here are the Atacams to turn all the pearl clutchers against Ukraine if they accept and use them. Nevermind that Russia has been using them on Ukrainians. I think Kris L is right.
I wish we could force our leaders to do right! This is infuriating to watch play out.
VIENNA, July 7 (Reuters) – Germany opposes sending cluster munitions to Ukraine, its foreign minister said on Friday, a day after U.S. officials said Washington was planning to provide Kyiv with the weapons, widely denounced for killing and maiming civilians.
There it is. Washington wants to send a weapon that maims civilians and Germany is getting upset. Interesting.
I guarantee this is how they start to turn the Left against Ukraine. Even if it wasn’t intended for that purpose to begin with, you some on social media condemning Ukraine getting and using atacams, and you know the disinformation machine will use it to their utmost advantage.
Sorry Kris, I see what you are saying now, the cluster munitions may cause a severe escalation as well.
I think there may be something to what you’re saying. I believe that cluster bombs would be almost useless to Ukraine as they have to be dropped directly over the target from low flying aircraft and that would almost be a suicidal mission for a Ukrainian pilot. Russian air defense systems are pretty good, though not unbeatable.
Now, if they are sending HIMARS rockets or 155mm artillery shells with cluster munitions, those might be beneficial to Ukraine as they can be used on Russian trenches and areas in the rear.
This seems to me to be a move on the part of the Biden administration to look as though they are helping Ukraine or perhaps it’s meant to push the Russian’s to escalate their actions. I
Regarding Biden’s aid to Ukraine, I found an interesting analysis : https://twitter.com/powerfultakes/status/1677108360183726080?s=20
Thanks, Jeff, for this article. I agree that the primary issue is to determine what the various elements of government have been doing with the UFO issue, in terms of legality, etc.
Your analyses are fascinating. I’ve learned a great deal!
The danger of unaccountable bureaucratic government is something we often miss. The modern state is much too powerful, and operates as a kind of machine. Its reasoning can be inhuman. Without bureaucracy, the horrors of the twentieth century could not have happened. The truth is never the concern of bureaucracy. Always, some kind of lie is promoted.
Jeff, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve lost viewers because of the Ukraine issue. However, you’ve gained a new one with me. 🙂 I have to admit that your extensive coverage of the Ukraine issue has brought me back to what I learned in the ’80s, at the Revolution Bookstore in Washington, DC: that Communists are in it for the long haul and that they are masters at the evil art of lying.
Your description of how the Democrat position toward Russia switched after Obama’s hot-mic moment was very illuminating. When the Ukraine conflict started, and I saw so many Democrats and Leftists support the Ukraine war, my immediate reaction was: if they’re for it, I’m against it, because why would they be for it? I read Archbishop Vigano’s comments about Putin and Christianity; I read about Ukrainian corruption and Nazis, and it seemed quite confusing. And then Biden and Congress were reported as having sent huge amounts of money and weapons to the Ukraine and in the process, drained our military reserves—and why would we want to do that? I got yelled at by Leftists (and conservatives) for “not supporting Ukraine” and I thought, “Why would I support this if the Left is for it? There’s something fishy going on.”
=> However: your writing about Putin’s Leninist strategy of deception, along with Russia’s verifiable support for China and other Marxist countries, and your reporting about the Democrat “switch” to “anti-Russian” really put things in perspective. Thank you for that!
I’m in the middle of watching your discussion on the Russian mutiny with Clare Lopez and Trevor Loudon. I have a lot of conservative friends that are convinced that Russia and Putin are the good guys.
Anyway, you brought me back to what I had previously learned about communism. I think that the “collapse of communism” and the fall of the Berlin Wall really threw conservatives off their guard. We thought that communism was no longer a serious issues. But surprise, surprise, Russia wants to take Alaska and Canada and China wants to kill Americans with biological weapons and take over the lower 48.
Time to ramp up, once again. I’ve been spreading your article urls around and will continue to do so. You are doing VALUABLE work!!!
When those people started supporting Putin, they ceased to be conservatives. Frankly, they are dupes and are refusing to think critically. I respond to many of them over at The Gateway Pundit. Most are capable only of insults.
It seems so.
I agree. Instead of focusing on Ukraine corruption and Zelensky, we need more coverage of the bad bad stuff the Russians are doing to Ukrainian citizens. If this is a special military operation, what’s the deal about bombing car loads of civilians, shelling their homes and hospitals, huh? What about reporting on the bravery of Ukrainian citizens? Reporters should ask the Biden whitehouse where is all the promised military aid? When Z complains he needs more help, maybe these top investgative “reporters” should get off their pompous butts and ask more questions about where’s the help we promised 6 months ago? Where are those Bradley tanks? Where is the promised air support? Maybe they should look at a map, too. Which country is bigger? Which country started the war? Which country has nukes? Which country gave their nukes to Russia? Which country is a gateway to Europe? Which country has more to lose?
Very good questions to ask!
Hear hear! We have such sellouts and cowards in nearly every influential position.
Thank you, Peter.
Bill O’Reilly has a good grasp of the real enemy. I am a concierge member so have direct access supposedly. Jeff, I am going to write Bill and ask him to interview you if that’s OK.
Also, what can we do to help beef up the Conservatives for Ukraine fb?
You can ask Bill O’Reilly to interview me, of course. I have no objection. As far as helping Ukraine, the best help is to challenge the false narratives when we hear other people repeating them. These things should be challenged in real time.
Someone sent me a 14 minute video of Max Blumenthal speaking before the U.N., reprehensible undermining Ukraine. The sender told me, “this explains a lot of what is going on in Ukraine”.
I listened to it on a trip to the hardware store.
It made me very angry and almost sick to listen to it. I texted the person back that that was BS.
I’ve been sending him your articles for a year or so. I told him, I thought he had been reading your stuff. He said you are hard to understand. I told him to stay with it.
I called him on the way back to the job. I told him to read Golitsyn, and other good books you have referred to. Told him to read you, Loudon, Contemplative Observer.
I told him we can sit down and talk for a few hours one day, but he just has got to trust me on this.
He said he believes me.
This person is one of my brothers.
It unfuriates me to see these lies continually put out by Russian and other Communist bloc scam artists, and no one see through them!! Very few challenge them!!
My brother is a good man! I absolutely hate everything about the Communists. I pray they find God, but that is my only positive prayer for them. I will resist them with everything I have! I hate everything they say and everything they do.
Will do!
Yes, Jeff, that reminds me, I contacted Jonathan Fink to recommend you to him, and he already knew who you were, and said that someone else had recommended he interview you last week! So I sent him your email address. Hopefully he’ll be in touch.
Jeff,
Well, you might be hearing from him. Here is what he wrote a few minutes ago.
“Hi Kathryn, I appreciate all the info here. I will certainly look into the possibility of interviewing Mr. Nyquist. Thanks for the heads up on him.” ~ Bill O’Reilly
So, keep an eye on your email. I sent him the aol account as that’s the only I know. I also sent an email to that account on the TET offensive. It’s a good story.
I got it. Thanks.
Why are we discussing UFOs etc. here now, apparently as a diversion, when there is so much else going on? I mean, NATO still smoldering towards eventual push-comes-to-shove with Russia, China/Taiwan in a holding pattern limbo, France in flames, U.S. cities exploding with shootings (in Chicago, it’s now Gangbanger-Storm-A-Neighborhood somewhere every weekend, soon it could well turn into storm-a-suburb), New York City proposing to ban coal-fired pizza ovens, Gruesome Newsom planning a stealth campaign to wrest the nomination from Pathetic Joe, gay/trans pride permeating everywhere, no end to the southern border chaos, air travel gridlock, continued subtle talk about eventual ‘climate lockdowns’, a corrupt Justice Department covering up the Biden Family International Bagman Looter Syndicate shenanigans, inflation still roaring, rumors persisting about imposition of a digital currency, drug cartels running wilder than ever in Mexico/S. America, Democrats screaming to almost literally tar and feather the conservative bloc on the Supreme Court over recent rulings, and (from personal observation) diehard paranoid citizen holdouts *still* wearing masks indoors and out, well…I do think the UFOs can wait a while. These mysterious tic-tac craft playing supersonic footsie with Navy jets really don’t seem to be bothering the average citizen so far, so let’s stay more on the traditional topic discussions here about the big-0picture stuff that can and does affect all of us.
When we look too intently at one thing, we can sometimes see it better if we look at something else, nearby. Take in as much as you can. Improve the larger context.
