RS V Disinformation

I have not been able to contact Eli more than a couple of times since New Years. I pray he be well.

Disinformation, not to be confused with “misinformation,” is defined as a dissemination of deliberately false information.

The more I researched black budget programs the more I realized disinformation played a fundamental role. And amid the clamour, by remaining silent or disinterested in certain information, the black budget guys promoted certain ideas, like aliens.

Real alien visitors, past or present, represents a serious threat to national security. What chance would a fledgling civilization, barely a few thousand years old, have against a civilization capable of interstellar travel, perhaps a civilization 100, 000 years old. None. Our trust in government, our willingness to pay taxes and follow laws is based first and foremost on our government’s ability to protect us. I can state uncategorically, as powerful as our military might seem, without intervention by a visiting alien race our civilization would change unalterably or collapse out right. This supposition is supported by think tanks such as the Brookings Institute that point out the fate of less advanced civilizations coming into contact with more advanced civilizations, only by small degrees compared to what would happen with a truly advanced civilization. In every case the less advanced civilization loses.

Movies such as Independence Day or Men in Black poke fun at aliens as advanced and mean, yet ridiculously funny and easily defeated. Who will ever forget Will Smith’s comment, “Welcome to earth,” as he slugs an alien in the head. Very funny. Very naive. Commensurate with the release of Independence Day, Highway 395 that runs north from Las Vegas past Area 51 was renamed E.T. Highway.

A little more sophisticated, and one of the first contemporary disinformation ploys occurred in 1947, at Roswell. Oh yeah, sure we shot down an alien spacecraft or it malfunctioned after traveling light years through interstellar space. Not likely. More likely it was a Navy aircraft being tested, not something from Project Mogul that didn’t even start until years later. This was followed by denials of the very information they released. They set the stage and played both sides, one against the other. And they are still doing it today. Vulnerable aliens, we (the military) can handle it. Oh yes, what you see in the sky that is unrecognizable must be alien, not black budget programs.

Thank you Bill Moore and Stanton Friedman for playing one side, and Phillip Klass and Carl Sagan (although probably unwittingly) for playing the other. All poppycock except for the fact that both sides might be right and wrong to some degree. Perfect disinformation blends truth and lies.

The more important disinformation in 1947 was a book written by the famous rocket engineer, Willy Ley, who immigrated to the US from Germany in 1933. Paperclip was still a deep secret. Ley was working with Von Braun at White Sands, NM further developing the very sophisticated German V2 that terrorized Britain during the war when he wrote, “Pseudoscience in Naziland.” In it he discredited the Nazis for searching for Vril in their spare time. I don’t call the V2, jet engines, and Heisenberg’s attempt to sustain a nuclear reaction for use as power as pseudoscience. Nor would I consider hovercraft, flying wings (Horten brothers) or the Bell Experiment pseudoscience. You just don’t take over 80 scientists and technicians into an empty field and shoot them dead for negative results on an experiment, especially considering the war was virtually over.
