The Mexican air force has released video footage of 11 unidentified flying objects that were only visible via an infrared camera.
The objects reportedly flew around a military surveillance plane, Reuters reported.
Jamie Maussan, a journalists and UFO enthusiast, told reporters yesterday the objects seemed "intelligent" because at one point they changed direction and surrounded the plane that was chasing them.
"They were invisible to the eye but they were there, there is no doubt about it. They had mass, they had energy and they were moving about," Maussan said after showing a 15-minute video. He says Mexico's Defense Ministry gave him permission to show the footage.
According to Reuters, the government confirmed the video was shot by the air force on March 5 over the eastern coastal state of Campeche as the aircraft looked for drug traffickers near the Gulf of Mexico.
"We are not alone! This is so weird," one of the pilots can be heard yelling, the news service reported. The plane's crew had just switched on the infrared camera after first picking up the objects by radar.
The objects were described as blobs of light that hover in formation or dart about, sometimes disappearing into a cloud.
One of the pilots said he became nervous after the objects surrounded the plane.
"There was a moment when ... the screens showed they were behind us, to the left and in front of us. It was at that point that I felt a bit tense," said Maj. Magdaleno Castanon told Maussan on a separate piece of videotape.
"This is historic news," Maussan said.
"Hundreds of videos (of UFOs) exist, but none had the backing of the armed forces of any country. ... The armed forces don't perpetuate frauds."
Occam's razor doesn't always work. Thomas Jefferson is famously quoted as saying, "Gentlemen, I would rather believe that two Yankee professors would lie than believe that stones fall from heaven."
These days belief in meteors is taken for granted. I'm still way over on the skeptic side of the UFO debate, however. You're entitled to your own facts.
The "Iron Mountain" title rings a bell but I have no associations to go with it.
Could you refresh my memory or give me a link, please?
Thanks.
The Report posits sinister schemes to mobilize the masses in the absence of war, such as the creation of "an extraterrestrial menace," "massive global environmental pollution," or "an omnipresent, virtually omnipotent international police force." In the event popular passions are not sufficiently inflamed by these new enemies, the Report suggests instituting "a modern, sophisticated form of slavery," or perhaps "socially oriented blood games," organized "in the manner of the Spanish Inquisition and the witch trials of other periods."
WOW.
So, is the book against the stuff, an expose or supporting such?
I couldn't tell.
Thanks.
True, they are fairly blatant these days. But they've always been blatant to some degree if you knew which of their documents to look in.
Galbraith had to have been a member of the puppet masters early on. What better way to throw people off than to state the truth as a hoax, a laughable satire?
