The
CIA and UFOs, a
soon to be published book by Dan Wright was the topic this week. Wright
provided insight into the million-page UFO document dump made by the CIA a
while back. You can listen to the show here:
What
I found most interesting here was that the number of the document pages that
actually dealt with UFOs was far smaller than the claimed million. Wright
deserved a few kudos for wading through all those documents that dealt with all
sorts of things that didn’t have anything to do with UFOs. Those he did find
gave us a real insight into the CIA attitude which seemed to be to deny
everything about UFOs. They didn’t want to give any credibility to the subject,
but they were very interested in it. They gathered data carefully so that the
general public, meaning us, didn’t have a clue about their real interest. According
to Wright, there are documents spelling out this attitude.
The
other interesting point was that he suspected that the CIA file clerks dumped
everything into the UFO file when they didn’t know where else to file it. That
explains why there was so many documents that had nothing to do with UFOs found
in this UFO document dump.
The
book, coming soon, by the end of August, possibly, is The CIA UFO Papers.
It is published in collaboration with MUFON. Given the tone of the interview with
Wright, this is something that will be of interest to anyone with an interest
in the various governmental agencies’ response to UFO sightings.
Next
week, I will speak with Bruce Fenton and what he can tell us about Hybrid
Humans. If you’re fond of Ancient Astronaut theories and the like, this will be
something of interest to you. If you have questions, let me know in the
comments section and I’ll do my best to get them.
