    Question

    Meanwhile ...



    "Seventy years ago, Roswell became the center of extraterrestrial theory when a rural farmhand accidentally discovered a mysterious crash on his land.

    Scientists and theorists have for decades used the infamous Roswell Incident of 1947 as a catalyst to the question: Do aliens exist?

    While many have questioned the government’s supposed “cover up” in the years since the incident, others have worked diligently to debunk the theories of visitors from space, hoping the incident and subsequent curiosity can reveal something about human nature.

    Guy Malone, a UFO theorist and author, gave a lecture about the incident Thursday at the opening of Roswell’s 22nd UFO Festival in the Roswell Mall.

    Malone proposed that the incident did not involve aliens, but the American people were led to believe such a fantasy to hide scientific collusion with one the country’s biggest enemies: Nazi Germany.

    “I certainly do not believe the Roswell incident was a weather balloon as said by the military,” Malone said. “That was the official story and it stood for 50 years. The government wouldn’t answer any questions.”

    Despite what he called a “cover-up,” Malone sought answers.

    After years of research, he published his theories online in 2002, aiming to replace extraterrestrial hysteria with historical fact.

    His work addressed the incident from three angles: the unusual debris found by the rancher, the supposed presence of “alien-like” bodies found among the wreckage and the general hysteria surrounding the events as the media published sightings of other “flying saucers” in the area.

    He said the government purposely did a poor job debunking theories of alien presence at the time to distract the public from the real conspiracy.

    Crash a Nazi experiment?

    The crux of Malone’s work centers on “Operation Paper Clip.”

    This military project, he said, brought Nazi scientists to America illegally in 1945 to develop stealth aviation technology witnessed by U.S. troops during the latter stages of World War II.

    Hundreds of Germans were brought to Air Force bases in Fort Bliss, Texas, Wright Field, Ohio and White Sands Proving Ground in New Mexico.

    Malone proposed that the crashed aircraft was part of tests related to “Operation Paper Clip,” named for false biographers paper clipped to the Nazi scientists’ personnel files so they could gain entry to the U.S.

    “They wanted you to figure out they were lying,” he said. “They wanted you to think it was extraterrestrials to cover up the real truth.”

    Malone compared descriptions of the supposed alien pilots to several illnesses and deformities documented in humans.

    He said because of the described small stature of the creatures, they could have been children suffering from a variety of ailments.

    The children could have been held at the nearby Fort Stanton, a facility known for housing children with special needs.

    Malone also alleged decades of human experimentation by the U.S. Military. He said it wasn’t until 1997 that legislation was introduced to expressly ban testing on non-consenting humans.

    “The disfigured and so-called undesirables were the favorite test subjects,” Malone said. “Would you put it past them to put someone like this in an experimental aircraft to see the effects on the body? You don’t always use the best for tests. You start with dogs and work your way up.

    “It makes me sick to my stomach.”

    Not aliens?

    Greg Bishop, a known UFO researcher and writer spoke after Malone.

    Bishop’s talk centered around how the E.T. theory took hold on society.

    He presented several other theories he said could explain the strange beings and happenings.

    “This not being E.T. is not a new idea,” Bishop said. “Don’t be a believer or a disbeliever. Look at the facts.”

    Those facts, Bishop said, could mean a lot of things.

    He attempted to debunk alien existence by pointing to the vast variety of appearances and behaviors reported by believers.

    Greys, dwarves, even banana-like creatures that could break and reform like an amoeba were suggested for centuries, he said.

    Bishop presented three possibilities based on accounts of alien life: Earth is visited by thousands of different races, they can change shape, or it’s all in humans’ minds.

    “We never know as much as we think we know,” he said. “There’s always something new to discover. Those of us who believe in E.T.s have a long, uphill battle. We fool ourselves with our own senses. Ever since we learned of other planets, people have been free to theorize about life on them.”

    Versailles' dirty secrets - Toute L'Histoire
    The chateau of Versailles is believed to have been a dirty palace: a place where everyone tossed the contents of their chamber pots from the windows above… Yet during the chateau’s construction, Louis XIV had given thought to commodities, and several public latrines were built as well as a very modern water system. So where did this bad reputation come from?

    Elvis Was A Mind Control Slave - Joe Atwill

    Published on Jul 1, 2017

    "I am a man, a human being now but, what is 'me' is not from here. I am from out there...You think I'm making this up but, it's true - you'll know that one day." - Elvis to Wanda June Hill ...

    The story of Elvis begins with encounters from cosmic beings granting powers to move clouds, levitate objects, heal the sick and, peer into the future. Social engineering sees the future it wants to create and Elvis has been "The King" of sexual programming. Authoritarian Personalities perpetuate the dominance of our rulers through abuse of our child-like wonder. This is how Donald Trump was elected President and why there is the religious figure, Elvis Aron Presley.

    From #POTUS ...



    Meet wrestling's anti Trump villain


    "The US President has tweeted a short video clip of him wrestling a person with the CNN logo for a head.

    The clip is an altered version of Donald Trump's appearance at a WWE wrestling event in 2007, in which he "attacked" franchise owner Vince McMahon in a scripted appearance.

    The animation appears to have been posted to a pro-Trump internet forum earlier in the week.

    CNN later accused the president of inciting violence against the media.

    One panellist on ABC's morning show, Ana Navarro - a Republican Trump critic and CNN contributor - said "it is an incitement to violence. He is going to get somebody killed in the media."

    But Homeland Security Adviser Thomas Bossert, who had appeared earlier on the network, said: "No-one would perceive that as a threat."

    The clip was submitted to a Donald Trump forum on the social media site Reddit four days ago, where it became one of the most popular posts.

    After the president's tweets, Reddit users expressed disbelief at the president's use of the clip.

    It was also retweeted by the official presidential Twitter account, @POTUS, operated by the White House.

    Mr Trump has repeatedly clashed with the CNN news network, which he calls "fake news".

    CNN's top White House correspondent Jim Acosta, who has been critical of the White House's attitude to the press, simply tweeted: "Isn't pro wrestling fake?"

    Donald J. Trump unleashes on ‘Fake News’ CNN with bizarre wrestling video

    CNN is obviously biased against Trump which may be a sacrifice of news objectivity but there is no enforceable law that mandates all news presentations must contain only content that is based on wholly authenticated fact and not contain any opinionated perspectives in any timeframe. It is, however, for such a famed and respected agency, an ethical responsibility, to maintain a balanced and fair forum. As a major western news media CNN must strive to return to the fundamental ideal of reporting news in a manner that is not selectively subservient to someone’s vested interest to empower a platform for highly manipulative oration. It is disparaging to see many CNN news hosts speak in the same condescending and sarcastic manner which points to a systemic issue and an epic compromise of integrity.
