Argentina: Massive UFO event, hundreds of witnesses
allnewsweb ^ | 23-2-2009

Years back we were assured that UFOs can’t be real because they were only ever seen by isolated farmers in Arkansas. Try telling that to the thousands of residents in the area around the town of Esquel in the mountainous Chubut province of Argentina: they witnessed no less that three fiery objects, that lit the sky, travel across their horizons last Saturday night

The event stunned locals so much that amazed policemen stopped cars on the road and asked them if they too saw the object.

The director of the local Astronomical observatory, Robert Figueroa, has confirmed the event and thinks that it might have been either meteors or satellites breaking up. Local head of police, Ramon Gotero, also confirmed that officers under his command had seen the ‘fireballs’ streak across the sky.

The sight was witnessed by commuters, local fisherman and tourists. One witness, a Mr Juan Monges, who was driving at the time saw the object come from behind a truck that was moving towards him. ‘It lit the sky as if it was day’ he commented.

The strangest thing about all of this is that this was not the first such event in the locality in recent days and preceding sightings, some with multiple witnesses, are more difficult to explain away with the meteor or satellite theory. A larger number of tourists visiting the Activity Centre at ‘La Hoya Mountain’ near Esquel have come forward saying that in the middle of the week they saw a luminous object just sitting in the sky above them for a couple of minutes before vanishing. A council worker, Horacio Bordon, driving between Esquel and Tecka claims he and his family saw four discs fly to the side of their vehicle. He managed to take a photo of the event which can be seen here. Something strange seems to be happening in the mountainous regions of Argentina and many believe UFO base hides somewhere in the area. Of course the objects seen on Saturday night might well have been meteors or breaking up satellites. Or perhaps these are just the latest versions of the old line about Arkansas farmers, now that it can no longer be used: Highly convincing explanations designed to conceal humans from the real events occurring in the skies above them.

In these days of great HD digital movies and cameras, you would think there would be better photographic evidence.

It’s amazing how clear that UFO looks versus any of the cattle.

It’s almost like the photo isn’t real...

This is in the mountains of Argentina. Not exactly SoCal.

All that means is that the UFO is real, and the cattle are fake...

That is merely a bubble of methane expelled by the cow when it farts. Sheesh folks, don’t be so gullible.

Some of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, a little over
60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying
object (UFO) with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep
and cattle ranch just outside Roswell , New Mexico . This
is a well known incident that many say has long been covered
up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and
organizations.

However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of
April 1948, nine months after that historic day, the
following people were born:

Albert A. Gore, Jr.
Hillary Rodham
John F. Kerry
William J. Clinton
Howard Dean
Nancy Pelosi
Dianne Feinstein
Charles E. Schumer
Barbara Boxer

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep?
I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of
things for you. It did for me.
No wonder they support the bill to help illegal aliens!
Now You Know.

Lessons from Argentina’s economic collapse

[Here's the truth about what's happening in Argentina. Or don't look now, but...]

And FerFAL's Argentina forum (even more up to date)...

Ignore distraction propaganda from the sponsored media (especially from the UK, Spain, Italy,...), be informed, and help to starve globalism.
