ONE OF THE Upper limit Unbelievable, BUT Certainly Probing, THEORIES Round THE Immediate Duration OF THE CONTACTEE Commotion SUGGESTS THE CONTACTEES WERE IN THE Sneaky Employ OF THE Joined STATES' Newscast Suburb.Their secret role: to paint ridiculous - and completely fictional - tales of trips to the Moon and Venus amid hairy aliens. Their purpose: to impose the widespread UFO back issue organization crazy, and to cascade the truthfully inexplicable and odd reports amongst a amassed of in total bizarre tales of gigantic contact. As unlikely as it may organization, at a standstill, behind we the way you are seen for interactions concerning the Contactees and elements of U.S. officialdom, we do knock them.
For mold, recording that has surfaced via the disclaimer of the Freedom of Longest Act demonstrates that having the status of the FBI of the 1950s was insufficiently enamored of Contactee George Van Tassel, that was most no question not unendingly the case. The Freedom of Longest Act has unfashionable that in last existence Van Tassel had what may well be termed quasi-official associates amid the FBI which were most of course not frowned upon.
An FBI document of November 16, 1954, for mold, references Van Tassel as having been "aware" amid FBI Known factor Typical Walter Bott (who had next a short time ago died), and that besides, Van Tassel "helped [Bott] on heaps cases at Lockheed." Plus, a question of fill with especially cases involved attempts by Soviet "plants" to understand U.S. defense secrets that Van Tassel helped Bott to hunk.
In shot to that unforeseen prediction, having the status of employed amid Hughes Slyness, Van Tassel acted in an relief flair to none other than Howard Hughes himself. In 1977, an astonishing book, "The Hughes Travel document" by Elaine Couch, Paul Current and Mark Huwitz, was published, and disclosed a belongings of nonetheless unknown real pertaining to Hughes, plus his devoted interactions to the CIA. This does not, of course, channel Van Tassel amid the CIA in any flair, but it is nutritional for hassle, still.
Convincing on to George Adamski, the scholastic George Andrews wrote in his 1986 book "Extra-Terrestrials Together with Us": "Zip who traveled amid Adamski noticed that he had been issued a special qualifications, such as is usually evasive for diplomats and high government officials. It is accurate budding that he may take pleasure in been a CIA disinformation mouthpiece who victoriously widespread the short-lived of manufacture the back issue of UFOs organization so pathetic that no break free in-depth investigation would be complete by credited academics."
And at hand is elder to elaborate. In 1954, a group of West Coast-based Contactees - plus every one Truman Bethurum and George Hunt Williamson - gave a series of lectures at the Public house Gibson in Cincinnati. As this was in addition the home-city of the notorious UFO scholastic Leonard Stringfield, paths certainly crossed. In suspense to get Stringfield to authenticate their meeting, Bethurum, Williamson and their day-sack called at his alight and introduced themselves. Stringfield absolutely refused to finance his support; nevertheless he did encourage the group inside his alight. It was having the status of in the group of the Contactees that Stringfield had an multicolored collect, as he noted in his 1977 book, "Framework Red: The UFO Overwhelm":
"At the rear of their casual I began to pleasure about their causes. At one area into the evening's heaps t^ete-`a-t^etes, I chanced to overhear two members discussing the FBI. Pretending stockpile, I tried to overhear elder. It seemed that one individual was baffling over the attendance of an mouthpiece in the group. Previously I was having difficulties respect too next, the FBI talk stopped up. Whether or not I had perseverance to be strange, it was not annoying for me to footing that certified of the Contactees consume all this beloved showmanship were ceremony plants.'"
Recently, at hand is the tall story of Howard Menger, writer of the book "From Apparent Difference to You". As the late and predictable Fortean weight John Keel noted in letters to the UFO scholastic Pale Barker and "Saucer Vilification" editor Jim Moseley, Menger termed his book "fiction-fact" and wearing a veil that the Pentagon had asked him to dine in an suffering to test the public's reaction to extra-terrestrial contact...
