UFO spotted by police helicopter
al-BBC News ^ | June 20, 2008 | Staff

Posted on 06/20/2008 2:03:23 AM PDT by Schnucki

A police helicopter crew has spotted what is described as an unusual aircraft in the Vale of Glamorgan.

The helicopter was above St Athan - home to a RAF base and close to Cardiff International Airport - but could not capture any images before the object vanished over the Bristol Channel.

South Wales Police says the helicopter did not give chase and describes the three man crew as very experienced.

The sighting on 7 June has now been reported for investigation.

A South Wales Police spokesperson said: "The crew are very experienced and responded in a professional manner in relation to what they saw.

"In today's skies, there are a wide variety of aircrafts which come in a range of different shapes and sizes and in all probability, this sighting has just confirmed that one of these was in the area at the relevant time," the spokesperson added.

A Ministry of Defence spokesperson said they had heard nothing about the incident.

"But it is certainly not advisable for police helicopters to go chasing what they think are UFOs," the spokesperson said.

A spokeswoman for Cardiff International Airport said that air traffic control provided a service to the police helicopter to ensure it had appropriate air space, including allowing it space to return to RAF St Athan to refuel.

I recall a couple years back the same thing happening and they did give chase and had some video. I’ll see what I can dig up.

That's not an alien. That's a fiend of hideous countenance, twisted monstrously wicked and fouled through years of contact with a source great evil.

The other one is Gollum.

Dr Carl Jung wrote a very interesting book concerning UFO’S. Whenever there are big social changes going on, there is an increase in UFO incidents. Prior to the fall of the Berlin wall UFO reports increased in the Soviet Union.

Just proves how SMART the UFO operators are. They manage to surface where NO ONE has even a phone camera. Not bad in a world where one can’t f—t in public without someone around to tape it or snap it....

That has always puzzled me. We get video and pictures of about everything nowadays and every UFO video or photo looks like a plate hanging from a string, a shiny 737 too far away to discern, or a distance spot of light from a lighthouse.

Always been intrigued by UFOs although I don't necessarily believe in them. What got me started was a wierd incident in Sutton, WV (if I remember right) in the 50’s.

Probably Kirk and his crew, trying to find out who’s screwing around with 21st century Earth history.

Here's an interesting little item for those with telescopes in rural areas:

Alien Spaceships Around Stargate/Time Portal? Take Out Your Telescopes Now!

I received an email today from Ted Anderson CEO of My Shield Corporation who claims there are numerous alien spaceships around a Star gate/Time portal which one can see near the Big Dipper constellation. These have been moving in and out of that portal since the spring of 2007. They glow bright RED, but are small and hard to see which means one has to be in a dark area away from city lights to see them.

He claims that the number of these alien ships has multiplied of late and apprehensive that something big may be in the offing. No idea how far out they may be. He didn't say.

Some of the drawings which can aid in locating them are reproduced below:

Before we dub him as a hoaxer, let’s get your telescopes and related equipment out of the closet and target the area to see if it’s for real. I don’t have a telescope. So it’ll be great if you guys can help out! Truth or bust!

Thanks and happy hunting

[QX: Seems like I had to html spread the telescope tracking refs out to get it to paragraph.]

Purported ET video.

Look on at right inch or so slice of the screen . . . bottom 3/4ths . . . last few seconds.

I have no idea if it’s a hoax or not.

ATS folks are usually quite good at ferreting out hoaxes.

BLUE PILL PEOPLE:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article1543.htm

EXCERPT:

.

The Blue Pill People

by Hari Heath

Dec - 2002 “Idaho Observer” — There are none so blind as those who will not look. If you are one of those who will look, take a look around. You are surrounded — surrounded by millions who will not look. These are the blue pill people. Who are these blue pill people and why won’t they look?

“The Matrix” may be only a movie, but it presents some scenarios with much relevance to our current situation. In the movie, Neo meets Morpheus and is offered an opportunity and a choice. Neo can take the red pill and see the truth for himself, or he can take the blue pill and return, comfortably unaware, to the illusion of the Matrix. There he can live out his life undisturbed by the truth. The truth depicted in The Matrix is an extreme version of modern socialism.

In the futuristic scenario of the movie, a massive array of human beings are kept in self-contained pods that resemble artificial wombs. These “row-cropped” human entities are maintained in their pods, from their in vitro conception until they are no longer useful to the Artificial Intelligence (AI) entity. The AI entity needs certain things from these “humans” for its own sustenance, so it continuously breeds new human crops and extracts from them what it needs. In return, the AI entity supplies the humans’ needs with several permanent intravenous connections and a neural link. The neural link provides the pod-bound humans with a complete illusion — the Matrix. In the AI-created illusion the humans have a normal life in a real world. In reality, however, the civilized world was destroyed some time ago and humans have been harvested as crops for the benefit of the Al entity ever since. The Matrix is a complete digital holographic type “world” created by the AI entity to mentally contain its human crops while it extracts what it needs from their pod-bound bodies.

In the movie, when Morpheus is about to offer Neo the choice between either the red pill or the blue pill, he explains:

“You’re here because you know something. What you know you can’t explain — but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life; that there’s something wrong with the world; you don’t know what it is, but it’s there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I’m talking about?”

“The Matrix,” Neo asks?

“Do you want to know what it is? The Matrix is everywhere, it is all around us. Even in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes; it is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.”

And Neo asks, “What truth?”

“That you are a slave Neo, like everyone else, you were born into bondage; born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch; a prison for your mind. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to experience it for yourself.”

Those few humans who were either born into reality, or have successfully taken the red pill, become the focus of the movie’s story — their attempts to destroy the Matrix and liberate the mass of humanity that lives completely encapsulated in their pods and the illusions fed to them by the powers that be — powers that will go to any length to maintain the illusion.

Extreme, but not much different than our modern system of corporate government and capitalistic socialism. The governing powers need things from us, not the least of which is our consent. To obtain our consent we are fed all manner of benefits. We are programmed from an early age to believe that such benefits are necessary. To obtain these benefits, a number of conduits are attached to each of us. Adhesion contracts like Social Security, a driver’s license; voter registration for a pretended choice of social masters, bank accounts where credit is manufactured for our use and other memberships, registrations, licenses, deeds and permits to insure the conduct of our affairs will be confined within the “matrix” of corporate governance.

We are given our own numbered “pod,” a social net provided by the government. Educated according to mandates of the state, our belief system is further cultured by corporate media.

There are various forms of “welfare” should we succumb to poverty or disease. If we are threatened or in danger we can call 911. Government’s job of “securing” us is made easier by the massive database tracking our movements, our finances, the location of our homes and businesses and our tax records. When old age creeps up, we can rely on government to take care of us.
