Topic: A man from Roswell leaves an affidavit saying it's all true

The Fox News story: (watch for the spin)

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,287643,00.html

I can't be certain, but the article feels heavily edited--there are a number of one-sentence paragraphs that don't logically flow with the article. 

And it's interesting that they put these two sentences on their own:

Skeptics, of course, will dismiss the testimony left by Haut.

After all, fascinating though it is, it's just a story. There's no proof.

Re: A man from Roswell leaves an affidavit saying it's all true

I agree the article feels heavily edited.  What's amazing is that it made it into the controlled print media AT ALL. 

Perhaps all part of the planned unveiling of alien presences in our skies.  There's no more government-friendly media than Fox.  Most unlikely they'd publish something THAT controversial without the blessings of their lord and master (Cheney).

Re: A man from Roswell leaves an affidavit saying it's all true

Roswell is such BS any real alien insider will tell you this. It was just a way to test the public just like with War of the Worlds. Not that there aren't real ET crashes but those aren't going to be made into a media frenzy. Bringing it back and making it look real again is just another game.

Re: A man from Roswell leaves an affidavit saying it's all true

I don't know enough about Roswell to say whether or not I think it was contrived by the military and the media.  If that's true, then why?  Three possibilities: to inspire fear, to inspire hope, or to acclimatize the populace to idea of aliens.  Or maybe it's a mixture of all three.

If gcg is right and it's mostly the latter, then there's still the question of coverage...The story was fairly buried and didn't garner much attention.  If acclimatization is truly the aim of the people behind Roswell, why not ensure that it gets repeated, national coverage?  Or are they just planting seeds? (Still).  If you take the acclimatization idea as true, it seems like seed-planting is all that's being done. For all we know, if there is a plan for unveiling the alien presence, the timetable for it could be 200 years.

What's a "real alien insider?"

You certainly sound sure of yourself.

See, that sounds a bit smarter to me.  "The wise person knows what he doesn't know."

It seems to me that there's an awful lot of seed-plating going on lately.    And an awful lot of direct alien-human contact going on, which goes light-years beyond mere seed-planting.    Based on what I'm seeing, I suspect we need to drop a zero -- or two -- from your estimate of 200 years.    I think something's just around the corner.   Get your popcorn and root-beer, folks.

Well, personally I liked the movie Hangar 18, back in
the 80's.  Where humanoids with blue eyes were found
inside a disk and a human female was onboard who had
been abducted.  Supposedly it was a take off on the
Roswell incident.

Couldn't agree more! Nothing like a HUGE distraction to refocus attention away from failed terrorist plots, failed bird flu pandemics, failed military invasions, increased calls to impeach the criminal element in the Executive Branch of US govt . . . Trotting out some aliens might work wonders (or fizzle as dramatically as all the other attempts to ratchet up the fear frequencies in pursuit of world dominance). You know -- "Hand over your power." "We're the only ones who can meet this threat to humanity's survival."  "WE'RE IN CHARGE!" (etc., etc. ad nauseum)

Not sure if you all saw this yet or not.  I saw headlined over at TDG and figured I'd pass it along.

Thanks, Lilmomma.  This document has a ring of authenticity, especially the following:

(9) One of the main concerns discussed at the meeting was whether we should go public or not with the discovery. Gen. Ramey proposed a plan, which I believe originated from his bosses at the Pentagon. Attention needed to be diverted from the more important site north of town by acknowledging the other location. Too many civilians were already involved and the press already was informed. I was not completely informed how this would be accomplished.
