In
the most recent show, I had the opportunity to speak with one of the forces
behind Project Blue Book: The TV
Show. Auturo Interian is a senior vice present at A&E which owns History and he provided some insight
into the way the series has been structured and the thought processes behind
the construction of the series. You can listen to the show here:
The
one thing that has come through, loud and clear, in my communications with
Auturo and in our discussion of the show is his deep interest in UFOs. He said
that his interest was sparked by Close
Encounters of the Third Kind and from that point on, studied the subject.
What caught my attention was that he was aware of some
of the more esoteric aspects
of UFOs. When I asked who was Neal McDonough was, meaning who is the general he
plays, Auturo said he was a combination of Nathan Twining and Charles Cabell.
While most people know who Twining was, far fewer understood the role of Cabell
in all this.

There
are other examples of this. He mentioned that the group we sometimes see around
a big, round table, is not MJ-12, but could be considered one of many different
organizations that existed over the years that sort of oversaw the
investigations into UFOs including the Science Advisory Board.
And
that Quinn, the captain running around with Allen Hynek, is not Ruppelt, the
one-time chief of Blue Book, but a combination of people because once you move
beyond Ruppelt you run into leaders of the investigation who are either
disinterested in UFOs or rabidly set against the idea they exist in any form.
There
is one more thing. When I was on the set of Roswell,
the ShowTime movie about, well, Roswell, I was the military consultant. I
mentioned something to the director, Jeremy Kagan. He said to me, “Remember, we’re
making a movie, not a documentary.” This is advice that some of the critics of
the Project Blue Book show should
remember as well.
Coming
up next… I’m not sure yet. There are several possibilities and I’m looking for
the best guest.
Sort of off-topic but Gen. Charles Cabell was fired by JFK along
ReplyDeletewith CIA Director Allen Dulles...some believe that the CIA was
involved in the JFK assassination. Well, what came out in the
last release of documents last year was that Charles Cabell's
brother Earle Cabell who was the mayor of Dallas in 1963 was
also a CIA operative. Some believe JFK's murder was because
he wanted to disclose some of the most critical secrets to the Soviets
and wanted to have the Soviets work with the US in our goal to land
men on the Moon safely. JFK was far-thinking and may have avoided
a nuclear war with the Soviets by him not taking the advice of his
generals. My belief is that Aliens are concerned about our advances
in nuclear weapons technology. (Just look at Robert Hasting's work on
UFO's & Nukes.) Mankind is playing with fire in this regard, and it will
not end well for the Human Race if we continue on this path. Scary
to think many of the Nuclear nations in our world believe we need these
things. Even scarier is the lack of any concern or critical thinking on
this subject. Our "controlled" news media gives zero attention to this.

Yes "some" believe all sorts of ridiculous things. The fact is, JFK was very much a conventional politician of his time. His Cold War rhetoric rivals Reagan in terms of it's defining what the Cold War was all about.
I know he has been reinvented in some circles as a (early) version of George McGovern.....but it's just not true.

I can't imagine why: it's going to take us thousands of years to reach the nearest solar system. And even if we came up with the technology tomorrow to get there faster.....likely any race we encounter who has come here has the technology to deal with such a threat. (Or at the very least: counterbalance it. Sort of a interstellar version of MAD.)
