What topic is the most covered up/laughed at by our govt?

The reality of UFO's and their presence, past, present and future.

Many countries (Mexico, UK, France, for instance) defer to the US to lead the way in disclosure, but USA ain't bit'in...

Wonder if Snowden has stuff along these lines that make it worthwhile to him to risk all looking for a confederate sympathetic govt that will thumb their nose at USA and let him tell all....

This may be BS, but it is creative....

55 of us have checked out your theory, so at least there was an interest in your creativity. I hate it when I don't get any comments on my wild speculations. So I'm sayin' hi.

4. Citizen Hearing on Disclosure
Mon Jun 24, 2013, 04:52 PM

Here’s an excerpt from an April 13, 2013 article. I wonder if there’s a follow-up to it.

http://exopolitics.org/former-congressmen-to-hear-evidence-of-ufo-et-cover-up/

It has just been confirmed that five former members of the US Congress will hear evidence of a sixty year cover-up of evidence of UFOs and extraterrestrial life. In an April 8 Press Release, it was announced that from April 29 to May 3, 2013, former Senator Mike Gravel (1961-1981); former Congressman Merrill Cook (Rep, 1997-2001); former Congresswoman Darlene Hooley (1997-2009); former Congresswoman Carolyn Kilpatrick (1997-2011); and former Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey (1993-2013) will sit and hear evidence from forty witnesses. Modeled on a U.S. Senate hearing room formula, the five members will hear the evidence presented by “researchers, activists and military/agency/political witnesses” in what will be called a “Citizen Hearing on Disclosure.” The former Congressional members will hear evidence that the Roswell Crash did happen, that the US military issued shoot-to-kill orders against UFOs, that the FAA was ordered to cover up UFO sightings, that the reality of extraterrestrial life has officially been covered up since at least 1947, and that nuclear weapons facilities have been deactivated by UFOs. The “Citizen Hearing on Disclosure” is the brainchild of Stephen Bassett from the Paradigm Research Group who succeeded in raising over a million dollars in funding for the event which will be streamed live to world and held in the National Press Club. Bassett says that:

“The Citizen Hearing on Disclosure will attempt to accomplish what the U. S. Congress has failed to do for forty-five years – reveal the facts surrounding the most important issue of this or any other time.”


I don’t think anything will come of it. I seriously doubt that Earth has ever been visited by ETs. Even if ETs are visiting us, and/or have in the past, and our government knows about it and is covering it up, what good would it do to present evidence to former congress critters?

Gravel – Libertarian
Cook – Republican
Hooley – Democrat
Kilpatrick – Democrat
Woolsey – Democrat

Oh, wait. I just checked, and here’s the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure on You Tube:

In fact, I posted about it in General Discussion and had my thread locked because it wasn't a topic of interest to everyone. Maybe reindeer wouldn't care, but I think a lot of people would have been interested...

Thanks for the link. Am so tired from gardening it may be days before I get a chance to leisurely play it.

IF there are ET's, past, present and future, and the government will not allow anything about them to be made public, the only way people could ever find out is if somebody like Snowden gets frustrated enough to do the same thing. Not Snowden, necessarily, but somebody who has actual government file evidence where the ET's are discussed by publically known politicians in files that could not have been falsified, only then will we find out.

Wish someone with that kind of courage would step up to the plate.

and the more countries involved, and with Brennan announcing last Friday that there is an Area 51 in Arizona (didn't say what it was for), the more sure I feel in my mind that Snowden took files about UFOS and their secret involvement in our government's affairs. The countries he's gone to for asylum were probably given a skinny report of what's in the files from him, but I bet that those countries already know about UFO's from their own experiences.

We shall see (maybe).

just like ghosts and big foot.

With basically everyone in the world carrying a camera phone 24/7, at some point the lack of pictures of UFOs and other mythical things will reach a critical mass.

I run Seti@Home (Einstein). There are hundreds of thousands who run the program that stands for "Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence." They are physicists, engineers, scientists, astronomers (and probably astrologers , military, college professors, movie-makers (probably), and dummies like me.

They use home computers to scan tasks and piece them all together.

This appears on every Seti-Einstein web page:

This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under Grants PHY-1104902, PHY-1104617 and PHY-1105572 and by the Max Planck Gesellschaft (MPG). Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the investigators and do not necessarily reflect the views of the NSF or the MPG.


The NSF is funded by the US Government. Also private donations.

*I* think the reason you don't hear about many saucers is that they have an agreement with the USGovt. They're all over the place in countries that probablly don't have any agreement. Many here think they have a foothold in the government already.

Nobody discusses aliens on the Einstein discussion boards seriously, but the hope to hear something is like the elephant in the room, and I hope ETs will let us know they're here first because we're the least likely group of people who will shoot at them...who knows, maybe we should though. I wonder if there's a law relating to shooting aliens. Funny the NRA hasn't used UFOs as another inducement to buy a gun.

Oh, if you like biblical reading, and who doesn't) , try to find a copy of the Pseudepigrapha. It's two giant volumes; these are books written between the Old Testament and New Testament that weren't approved by the Council of Nicea - climbing up and down steps to heaven, messengers, spaceships, etc. Very interesting, written by normal humans about not everyday creatures.

Cheers..
