I reminded George that he himself had briefly talked about that truth earlier in
the yr. Knapp then elaborated, saying that Reid had as soon as instructed him that
revelations contained within the e book—concerning UFOs monitoring and even tampering
with US nuclear missiles—had been one of many causes the then-powerful Senate
Majority Chief had secretly approved authorities funding for a covert
Pentagon UFO research in 2007. That mission ended up being known as the Superior
Aerospace Weapon System Purposes Program (AAWSAP), which later morphed
into the Superior Aerospace Menace Identification Program (AATIP).
Though numerous components led to Reid’s resolution to fund the key
program, in response to AATIP’s former director, retired US Military
counterintelligence particular agent Luis Elizondo, I need to confess that it’s
moderately gratifying to know that my printed analysis apparently contributed to
the creation of one of many US Authorities’s formal, if labeled,
investigations of the UFO phenomenon.
Starting in 1973, I had sought out and interviewed former or retired US Air
Power personnel who had both operated or guarded nuclear weapons, concerning
their private UFO encounters at ICBM launch services, missile warhead/bomb
storage depots, and different nukes-related websites. My curiosity within the matter
resulted from a UFO radar-tracking incident that I had inadvertently witnessed
at Malmstrom AFB, Montana, in 1967, involving mysterious aerial objects
maneuvering close to missile websites exterior of the bottom.
As of 2023, 167 USAF veterans and different army personnel have gone
on-the-record for me and UFOs and Nukes is basically a compilation of
a few of these people’ tape recorded testimony. Collectively, their
revelations about unknown, technologically-advanced observers’ persistent
curiosity in America’s nuclear weapons clearly point out a possible risk to
US nationwide safety. Furthermore, my investigations unquestionably affirm that
the UFO-Nukes Connection is longstanding, widespread and ongoing. Upon studying
the e book, Senator Reid was understandably involved by the veterans’ dramatic
disclosures and, in response to George Knapp, determined {that a} new, covert
investigation of them was warranted.
How the e book got here to the senator’s consideration is moderately intriguing. Whereas
writing it, in 2005, I had sought the help of a physicist when composing
a chapter on faster-than-light (FTL) area journey, the belief being
that—ought to UFOs certainly develop into extraterrestrial spacecraft—the
entities working them would probably make the most of unique propulsion modes to journey
between their worlds and ours. I emailed a number of physicists who had written
peer-reviewed papers on FTL, to hunt their enter. The one who ended up
working with me was Dr. Harold “Hal” Puthoff. As the general public now is aware of, Puthoff
grew to become AATIP’s scientific advisor in 2007.
The primary version of UFOs and Nukes was printed in July 2008. At that
time, it was solely out there at
my website. In December of that
yr, Puthoff unexpectedly emailed me and requested that I overnight-ship 4
copies to him. Once I checked into the supply cost concerned, it turned out
to be greater than 100 {dollars}. I rapidly wrote again to Puthoff, suggesting
that I merely ship the books through US Postal Media Mail, which might take 5
days, however can be a less expensive resolution. Upon receiving my response,
Puthoff instantly known as me and mentioned that he had an upcoming assembly with
some “movers and shakers in Washington” two days therefore, and he wished to
distribute copies of the e book to them. At that, I rush-shipped the order.
Years later, when the now-famous bombshell article exposing the existence of
AATIP appeared in The New York Occasions, on December 16, 2017, Hal Puthoff was
recognized as a member of the key mission. Surprised, I wrote to him shortly
thereafter, asking him whether or not he remembered the overnight-shipping episode in
2008. He confirmed that he did after which instructed me that AATIP director Lue
Elizondo had been one of many recipients of my e book.
(In 2021, throughout
a podcast, Elizondo confirmed that AATIP had utilized UFOs and Nukes throughout its
personal investigation of nuclear weapons-related UFO exercise, and mentioned that I had
carried out “a implausible job” researching the topic.)
In any case, in 2017, once I requested Puthoff who had obtained the opposite three
copies of the e book throughout his 2008 assembly with the “movers and shakers”, he
declined to reply. Now, given George Knapp’s latest feedback to me, I’m
sure that one in all them was US Senator Harry Reid.
