FORT WORTH — So much for aliens in Texas dairy country.
At least that's what the military said today, reporting that 10 F-16 fighter jets were training in the Stephenville area the night dozens of residents reported seeing a UFO.
Although Air Force Reserve officials at the Joint Reserve Base Naval Air Station in Fort Worth initially said none of their planes were in the area Jan. 8, they said today that they had made a mistake and wanted to set the record straight "in the interest of public awareness."
Some residents aren't buying it, though, saying the military's revelation actually bolsters their claims because several reported seeing at least two fighter jets chasing an object.
"This supports our story that there was UFO activity in that area," said Kenneth Cherry, the Texas director of the Mutual UFO Network, which took more than 50 reports from locals at a meeting last weekend. "I find it curious that it took them two weeks to 'fess up. I think they're feeling the heat from the publicity."
From well-respected business owners to a county constable, several dozen people swear that what they saw was larger, quieter, faster and lower to the ground than an airplane. They also said the object's lights changed configuration, unlike those of a plane.
"I guarantee that what we saw was not a civilian aircraft," Steve Allen, a pilot and freight company owner, said today.
Allen said that the planes' training area in the Brownwood Military Operating Area that includes Stephenville's Erath County does not include the airspace where he saw the object. Also, Jan. 8 was not the only day sightings were reported.
Anne Frazor, who owns a fabric store in Stephenville, about 70 miles southwest of Fort Worth, said many in town have seen military aircraft zoom overhead from time to time as part of training operations. But she said that is different than what she saw Jan. 8.
"I couldn't begin to say what it was, but to me it wasn't planes," Frazor said.
Since the reported sightings two weeks ago, the 17,000-resident town has had some fun with the international publicity. Some high-schoolers made T-shirts that read "Stephenville: the new Roswell" on the front and "They're here for the milk!" on the back. A picture features flying saucer beaming up a cow.
This week Tarleton State University is even hosting a lecture by a UFO researcher on the U.S. government's secret response to UFOs, based on previously classified documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.
The U.S. Air Force says it has not investigated UFO sightings since 1969 when it ended Project Blue Book, which examined more than 12,600 reported UFO sightings — including 700 that were never explained. That program started a few months after the 1947 crash near Roswell, N.M., which the government said it was a top-secret weather balloon but others involved later said was an alien spacecraft.
"What we want is the government to admit there are UFOs and what they know about them," Cherry said.
I too am amazed at the general lack of interest....to the point that you have to feel awkward trying to have a serious discussion on it.
That will change.
Though I wish the events forcing that change would not come to pass. On the other and
God has made clear . . . many things must be.

BTW, I think the first of the videos above—first 3 or so—are well worth the time.
This one:

—an Easternblock somewhere???
shows craft detail that I’ve rarely seen that clearly. Still not sharp or crystal clear but far better than lots.

Phoenix lights one is quite a long one . . . There’s no way the craft depicted could have been flares. No way. Very obvious.
The following is at the ATS thread here:

“UNIVERSAL LIGHT”
Quix: Given the ‘eastern religion’ orientation—I certainly do not agree with all the items . . . but the mixture is interesting . . . and the number of alternative ‘realities,’ ‘facts,’ is fascinating . . . especially given my globalist studies since 1965 on.

more infoSome truths I know about life
Coming from being an atheist for ten years until two years ago, I’ve been very fortunate to have been able to cross meditation with ATS to help shape my understanding for the multiverse. I have taken much more than I have given from the ATS intellects so my goal here is to put together many truths that I’ve come across for people to view in one shot. Most of them are known, some are not understood. If I directly quote somebody I apologize as my efforts are solely to speak truth and not to plagiarize. These are in no particular order and may overlap:
1. The truth is etched on your heart.
2. Because of number one, no one can tell you anything you know by your heart isn’t true.
3. Perception is reality.
4. Everything is a reflection of you.
5. Time does not exist in the traditional sense as it is its own dimension that is enfolded into the other dimensions. It is not linear and is very malleable.
6. The attempt of global government is upon us.
7. The Illuminati has been real for a long time.
8. Light always shines through darkness.
9. Love, acceptance, forgiveness, selflessness, and purity are real ways to discover yourself.
10. Free energy has been denied to us for a very long time.
11. Putting fluoride in tap water and toothpaste decreases optimal brain function.
12. More and more people are awakening.
13. Chemtrails are being dumped on us at a massive rate.
14. Consciousness is the strongest power known to man.
15. The law of attraction works best when you attract what you want for everyone else first.
16. You can use your own energy to heal anything.
17. The population that is brainwashed will not suffer for that which they do not know.
18. The following are complete frauds: politics, entertainment and music industry, sports,
media and medicine.
19. Governments do not exist. Financial institutions control all.
20. The Rothchild’s continue to fund both sides of many wars.
21. History is written by the winners.
22. Just because someone says something is a tree does not mean it’s a tree.
23. Giving gratitude to the universe everyday when you wake up and before you sleep holds so much weight.
24. The aura is a truly spectacular sight that everyone would benefit from viewing on a regular basis.
25. You are responsible for everything that exists around you.
26. The higher dimensions are stacked upon us as we are stacked upon lower dimensions.
27. All Source wants you to realize is that you have the same powers that he does.
28. Global warming is fake.
29. RFID chips are more in place than people could imagine.
30. AIDS along with many other diseases were created by man to be used on man. Viruses have been in “vaccines” for tens of years.
31. Food, shelter, clothing, gas, water, and electricity could easily be free to humans.
32. Those that have a greater understand of the current status of life on Earth have an
obligation to discover their mission and fulfill it for the advancement of humanity.
33. If you can understand the concept that everything is nothing, and you truly know what nothing is, you’ve discovered everything.
34. The attempt to depopulate the planet ten-fold is apparent.
35. 9/11 was done to our self, by our self, with the help of “allies”.
36. Racism is worse than it ever was.
37. GW Bush is not a man of power as he’s simply carrying out someone else’s plan. He is only a public figure to blame everything on.
38. There is an infinity of infinties that exist.
39. Just because two sides of an argument are presented doesn’t mean either are right.
40. Society is designed so that you can only have things that which someone can make a profit from.
41. The real reason we are in Iraq is because there is a stargate that exists on the 33rd parallel that they are deathly afraid of.
42. Life is a frequency wave. It has ups and downs but you can always change which wave you’re connected to.
43. Your body is a temple. Don’t pollute it with all of the processed consumer goods they want you to.
44. Aliens exist.
45. Everything is always in divine and perfect order.
46. You can’t appreciate the sun without a rainy day.
47. There are many things in life that we do not need to have to the answers to.
There are a lot more but that’s a good start for me. So what truths do you know?
Peace, Light, and Prosperity to all

What no swamps in Texas?
Quix,
Sad part is I believe you can find all those ‘truths’ uttered by some here (many by one Freeper, but I won’t go into personal attacks now..)
The further east you go, they are called bayous. All the yankee liberals that come down call them 'wetlands'..
An interesting iphone shot or 3 of a UFO over Hong Kong. Looks to me like taken in the New Territories area.
http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread342624/pg1
Oh, I don’t know about that.
I think a third or more have not been on FR before, that I know of. A good many are lala land eastern religion nonsense.
But there are several interesting tidbits in the remaining 2/3 or so.
A very interesting site with pics about a purported
BC site with early Hebrew characters carved on big rocks
in NEW MEXICO . . .
Scroll down for pics. Paragraphing is poor at the site:

YOUTUBE VIDEO OF A SLOW MOVING UFO
FUZZY and a bit distant. But the movement is slightly interesting and the fade out at the end is often reported.

FWIW
ATS GLEANINGS FROM THIS EVENING:
A German page with stats and umpteen drawings of UFO’s maybe a few hundred-—ahhhh 280 drawings.
If anyone could translate some of the stats graphs, I’d greatly appreciate it.
http://www.mufon-ces.org/text/deutsch/typen.htm
The referring ATS thread has some translation of the graphs:
http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread343471/pg1
One caption:
It is noticeable that the distribution hardly changed for more than 30 years - with an important exception: For approximately two decades increases triangles sighted. In 1/7 (of MUFON CES collected) of the cases the UFO was more near distant as 50 meters

more infoImportant UFO Disclosure Information
I found out today from my state Senator Saxby Chambliss that if hearings under oath about UFOs were to be set up and held, it would be done by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. Daniel Inouye is head of it.
I called and spoke with two people today. Both seemed interested and said they would pass along the information to Mr. Inouye. I told them I would be willing to set up the hearing if they would just agree to let there be one.
I need your help! I need you all to help spread this information around the internet and any where else you can. People need to know that this is the committee to call and ask for UFO hearings to be set up.
If enough people called in, they would get the hint. It’s time to do this.
Here are contact numbers for the committee:

PLEASE DO THIS FOR UFO DISCLOSURE!!!

There have been such congressional efforts before with some key congress critters all gung ho . . . only to be shot down by the elite puppet masters in control of congress and everything else—all at the last minute.
We shall see what they may allow, or not, this time.

DATS ALL
The drawings are fascinating. A google translation gives quite a bit of background, but I’ve been out of school way too long to translate the graphs ;o)
Good post. Thanks.
THANKS FOR YOUR KIND REPLY.
quite understand. No sweat.
A blessed Resurrection Sunday to you and yours.
And what if 20% of them—with half of that 20% important ones . . . come true . . . what will your thinking and attitude be at that time on that score?
I realize fringe sources are easy to rail against. But cheap shots are cheap shots.
When one collects thousands of puzzle pieces . . . eventually . . . some start to cluster together from a diversity of sources.
I think it would be foolish to not find that at least a little interesting.
Thanks, and the same for you.
