Secrecy about UFOs and Extraterrestrials shows the true colours of an aspiring U.S. Global Empire

The UFO problem is a real one. It
has involved military personnel around the world for more than fifty
years, and is wrapped in secrecy. Over the years, however, enough
pieces of the puzzle have emerged to give us a sense of what the
picture looks like. What I have tried to do is very simple: to use as
many of those pieces as possible in constructing a clear,
straightforward, historical narrative of the UFO problem, focusing on
the national security dimensions.
Because the subject of UFOs has become little more than a cultural
joke, it is important to stress at the outset why it is not a joke, not
entertainment, but something worthy of serious attention.
Although stories of strange objects in the sky go far back in time, the
problem received little attention until World War II. At that time,
military personnel from Allied and Axis countries reported
unconventional objects in the sky, eventually known as foo fighters.
In retrospect, this development is not so surprising. First, human
aviation had become widespread for the first time. Above the clouds,
thousands of pilots suddenly had the kind of visibility that no one
ever had before. A second reason was the invention of radar, which
extended the range of human vision by electronic means. Moreover, it
seemed reasonable to assume that the odd sightings were related to the
war itself, perhaps experimental technology.
