Beyond the Cover-up
Martin Gottschall, PhD ©
INTRODUCTION
The cover-up
has been a matter of common knowledge for fifty years. For all
of this time, UFO researchers and people in the know about
UFO's have been waiting on the authorities and the experts to
disclose what is known and to apply their expertise to this
subject. This has not yet happened.
While there
seem to have been some disclosures by the authorities in an
indirect and deniable manner, and has had minimal impact on
public opinion. While qualified people have joined the
research effort, they seem to have done so because of their
personal convictions, and not as part of a concerted effort.
Consequently,
we are still where we were half a century ago - waiting for
something to happen. The time has come to face the fact that
the disclosures which we believe we have every right to, will
not be made willingly by the secret keepers, and we are going
to find another way.
WHY DISCLOSURE
IS IMPORTANT
Right from the
beginning, the ET presence was linked with advanced
technology. This made the possession, control or the hoarding
of that technology a matter of survival in a war-prone world,
and well-intentioned people were willing to have the cover-up
installed. However what is so vitally important about UFO's is
not their technology but the ET presence which they represent.
From the very
start we should have insisted on separating the issues of the
ET visitation of this planet, and advanced technology. We
might as well start doing it now. The fact that there are many
different ETs visiting our world, that many are living amongst
us, that they have bases in all kinds of places on and in the
planet as well as elsewhere in the solar system, that this has
always been going on and always will; has to completely change
our ideas about life in the wider universe. As we get to know
ETs better, we begin to see ourselves through a cosmic
perspective, and we become different. A meeting of healthy
cultures has always been a good thing for all concerned.
Cultures are not, in general, perfect and for this very
reason, the meeting of cultures needs to happen in a
constructive environment where the helpful tendencies are
given free reign and the unhelpful ones are restrained.
On the other
hand, the meeting of cultures which takes place in the context
of a cover-up is far more dangerous precisely because the
dangerous tendencies of both parties are less restrained while
the healthy ones are obstructed. This amounts to saying that
in the context of a cover-up things will tend to evolve in all
the wrong directions.
DISCLOSURE HAS
HAPPENED
While a formal,
open disclosure has not yet happened, it is time for us and
the general public to decide that the essentials of such
disclosure has by now happened, and we should be planning and
taking the steps that follow disclosure. One of the things
that needs to happen after disclosure is the evolution of
public opinion on how we should be relating to the ET
presence, how such interaction should be conducted, how
non-sensitive information should be disseminated and studied
and what roles our governments should and should not play.
As we look down
the events of the past half century, we can see that thanks
mainly to ETs and the UFO phenomenon, we have enough
information and enough certainty to take the next necessary
steps. As we do this we will acquire more information, more
certainty as to their factuality, and be able to take yet more
steps until UFOs and ETs are a matter of direct personal
experience for as many of us as need or want it. THE TIME HAS
COME FOR US TO ACT.
A PRESENT
DANGER
In recent years
we have had much evidence that out above the Earth's
atmosphere UFOs are being shot at with what appear to be
particle beam weapons. It also appears that the finger on the
trigger of these weapons is human. The reason for this
shooting we do not know. It might be to down the craft for
retrieval; it might be to warn certain ETs off this planet; or
it might be to prevent all ETs from coming and going freely so
that they are forced to negotiate with this secret human
group. All of this may be intended for our common good, or it
may not.
The danger is
that as the effectiveness and number of such weapons
increases, our world will be increasingly cut off from the
rest of the universe, the incidence of UFO sightings and
contacts will decline, and the word will be that UFOs were a
delusion of the past and never happened. Have you ever
wondered that despite all the evidence to the contrary, the
cover-up is still being maintained? Could there be a long term
goal of forcing ET's off the planet by the use of weapons? Can
we afford to just sit back while the foundations might be
being laid for a future "Berlin Wall" around our planet?
ACTION NEEDED
One of the
things we should all do is get behind Steven Greer's
Disclosure Project. Never mind if the experience of the past
makes you doubt that the authorities will budge. And never
mind if you do not agree with everything Greer seems to be
saying about ETs. I have some serious reservations about some
of his statements. The point is that getting witnesses to
disclose what they know, in order to make the public
understand that they have been lied to by the people they
trusted, and to make them realise that they need to perform
major renovations in their "reality" parlour, IS VERY
IMPORTANT FOR THE FUTURE WELFARE OF US ALL. We can all rally
behind this cause. Hence:
ACTION 1.
Support the Disclosure Project.
Ever since
people first realised that UFO's represented beings from
elsewhere, the thought of meeting these visitors was a major
theme of their thinking. It is one of the reasons why
contactees always had such a ready hearing and following
amongst the public. Such meetings have been happening all
along on an individual basis. The strongest impulse behind the
call for disclosure is that it would lead to some kind of
public meeting with ETs. This, the authorities have refused to
countenance. Is there some kind of law that says that the
general public can not have such a meeting? We have to stop
acting as though there was such a law.
ACTION 2. Work
Towards Open Meetings with ETs.
One of the
unfortunate things about UFO researchers is that they allow
divisions to arise amongst themselves. Obviously we can not
afford to suffer fools and troublemakers. They can do too much
damage. We have to find effective ways of discovering and
dealing with them. What we can not afford is to allow ANYTHING
to divide us in our pursuit of agreed goals.
ACTION 3. We
need to work together in pursuit of agreed goals.
Doing anything
worthwhile requires courage, commitment and discernment, as
there is ample disinformation, confusion and interference.
Many otherwise sincere people resort to scepticism when they
should be taking a stand; demand more "facts" when they should
be making up their minds enough to do something. In the
ordinary world there are few things which we can be certain
about, yet we have to make decisions and take action. It is
the same here. We have to just do the best we can, and choose
our actions so that the results we get help us towards a
better understanding of the things we need to know, and better
future decisions.
ACTION 4. Use
Actions to test and verify data, and keep taking Action.
If the cover-up
proves anything it proves that the stakes are very high - the
highest they can be. That matters relating to UFOs have the
highest security rating known to us is a very telling detail.
Of course we are interested in the subject because we want to
know and understand these things, but there are also very
urgent reasons for us to consider. The human race has again
arrived at a very critical point in its evolution. One which
it was at a number of times in prehistory, at which it then
failed. This point is that of becoming a cosmic society.
A rocket
lifting off it's pad seems to hang there almost motionless
burning up its fuel at an enormous rate. It must soon
accelerate away or it will never make it to its destination at
all. Our society is in a similar position to that rocket. We
must move on and up. The secret keepers seem intent on just
having us hang there like the rocket hovering above its pad.
If we hang there too long without moving on, our civilisation
will run out of that evolutionary impulse, and will collapse
back upon itself. Our civilisation and our present opportunity
will disappear into the prehistory of a primitive future
society just like the others have done:
ACTION 5.
Remind yourself and everyone else that this is the most
important thing which you could be doing for our common
future.
We have many
prophets of doom warning about all kinds of things. We are
destroying our ecosystem, heating up the planet, polluting our
lands, ocean and atmosphere etc. We are also becoming
delinquent. Individuals become dependent on drugs, live trivia
filled lives and fail to take responsibility when and where
they should. Through medical technology we are taking the
reigns of our evolutionary development from nature, but have
no clear idea of where we want to go. Some of our problems
need us to change while others can be left behind by replacing
present behaviour patterns with new and better ones. The one
common thread in all these warnings is that our present
lifestyle is unsustainable. Ultimately we must change the way
we live and do things to something that can last, or we
disappear.
ACTION 6. Do it
Now.
