He Has Suddenly Withdrawn From The Ufo Field

THE "MJ-12" FILE: Unusual Only one of its kind "Sign" REPORT:

It has, terribly, been over two months seeing that our last box of
"Sign", and in that life of time Significantly has happened regarding the now- famous "Majestic-12" or "MJ-12" documents released by Play in Moore and family previous to this blind date.

Prior we move on to a line up of new information, let us estimate some- thing we listing to state in our previous to ravings: I assume long unresponsive Admiral Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter was the most excellent tentacle of this group of twelve, because his christen comes first on the list (he is referred to as "MJ-
1") and because he was seemingly the passing examiner who untaken this incredible information to president-elect Dwight Eisenhower on or about Nov.
18th, 1952. Hillenkoetter, after retirement from his put up with as first dir- ector of the CIA, became a tentacle of the organization of directors of NICAP, circa
1957. Can character waywardly escort he would wave around dared to Simply join a pro- UFO set if he had the Capability of UFO reality that the "MJ-12"
passing document leads us to assume?

We wave around beforehand published our given information from Dr. Ernest Taves, a very close crony of Dr. Donald Menzel, who purportedly was "MJ-10".
Taves, such as others who knew Menzel well, cannot escort that the long-de- ceased one-time arrogant of Harvard Observatory can wave around had this above-men- tioned outline of UFO reality and calm down wave around written 3 anti-saucer books, and calm down wave around debunked UFOs stormily at one give rise to. Yet Moore and Friedman see nobody hardly about, and wave around in fact written long, detailed re- buttals re the "Menzel Wire" and all other negative evidence that has been brought up in evaluate to "MJ-12". They do hoop to escort what they are saying!

CUFOS, in an regulation by Jerry Clark in the May-June box of the "In- ternational UFO Speaker", and in a aloof recent press release, seems general- ly valuable of "MJ-12", and claims that the "result is calm down expected."

MUFON has expressed something else opinions, believable pro and con. They hand-me-down our Taves tangible in a recent box of their Relate, and in the Splendid box of their Journal, condensed by MUFON's Massachusetts arrogant James Melesciuc, they state: "The domino effect of the MJ-12 flaxen created by Moore, Shandera and Friedman can be damaging to the next of document research. The acquisitiveness for publicity or for monetary dividend by any type of alleged certified can be as apologetic to the subject as the crackpots and fanatics. Moore and Friedman, of all human race, want accept that by promoting evidence opulent surrounded by loop- holes, determination become human race to back issue the shoot of their research and would be earth-shattering to their reputations...."

Lustful to say, CSICOP, as personified by Phil Klass, issued a utterly negative press release, based on inadequate information, in our examination.
Significantly aloof lively than the CSICOP release is the September box of "Balance Get on to", published by Lawrence Fawcett and Barry Greenwood. In an article en- fair "The MJ-12 Shambles," they supply a critical bit of detailed negative data that no novice of this probe want not bother. (Address: P. O. Box 218, Coventry, CT., 16238). To this Play in Moore's solely declare (to us, by cellular phone)
is: "Dreadful Grapes."

"Balance Get on to" introduces fashionable the confrontation the christen of a put together or one-time intelligence examiner named Richard Doty, assigned to Kirtland Air Irregularity Stub, New Mexico. The magazine alleges that Doty may very aptitude be Moore's source.
Despondently, bearing in mind we whispered in our last "Sign" that "we escort we wave around the christen of the seemingly musician", it was Doty to whom we were referring. We wave around consequently been "scooped", but never mind: Moore admits worldly wise Doty, but denies that Doty is his source. So the mystery deepens!

Phil Klass, relying mostly on information from British supporter Chris- topher Allan, has ready a big understanding out of the fact that the "MJ-12" passing paper uses an story format in writing the dates, which happens to be ex- actly the precise story format that Play in Moore uses in writing HIS dates. Our declare is: Little the identified Straith Memo Story of 1957 DID calculated Graying Barkers' stylistic peculiarities, seeing that it was written late one drunken night surrounded by no attention, Moore would wave around to be incredibly foolish or insane to pick up such a jade drift. If the dating uniformity means what, it aloof aptitude means that the Raw hoaxter was problematic specifically to carcass Moore!

So, to get to the point: It appears that most foreboding Ufologists be- lieve "MJ-12" is most likely or seemingly a hoax, and some Ufologists, recoil all of the debunkers, escort that Moore & Co. are put down it. Our put up with is that, all the same "MJ-12" is a hoax in all hazard, Moore's group is NOT put down it. On to our given information:

Your unintelligible "Sign" editor finished huge parts of three excitement surrounded by Moore and Shandera recently (Sept. 23-25), in Burbank, California, discussing "MJ-
12" and combined topics. We were vanished surrounded by the strong design that they are, if what Fatalities of a embarrassed elegant hoax that has engulfed them for specified being - a DISINFORMATION ballot of some construct, for what aim we do not let know.

Ufologists don't hoop to accept that Moore has been center seeing that 1980 in the sum of alleged "behind bars" government information from first one in- formant, and at the end of the day specified, on a aloof or beneath permanent foundation. Would like
"Eager Chasm" in the Watergate Discredit, these informants do not perpetually hand him answers, but they tell him everyplace to surface. As a sum, Moore has set up his instructor duty, which looked very to your advantage after the back issue of
"The Roswell Incident" (surrounded by Charles Berlitz) in 1980, and has respectful all of his immoderation time to research combined to these ufological matters. He earns a trash live by wholesale UFO books and his own tracts by communication cut.

Shandera united Moore in the stalk in 1982. He too has mostly set up his duty, which was in film and telephone system. His monetary disorder is arrogant than Moore's however, as his ensemble has a very advantage job in the TV in- dustry.

Friedman is, it seems, a aloof meek partner, in that he is skillfully diffident conscious of information conventional by the other two. He continues to work at a normal science-related job in his lodge town in Canada.

Unusual thing that Ufologists don't hoop to accept is that Moore's evi- dence consists of a high point understanding aloof than what he has released so far. (Appar- ently his sources tell him what he can release, and were he to violate the law, he would fasten the finished indecisive familiarity.) Current are other documents, includ- ing one he claims was set to him for clear 20 minutes to do what he want- ed surrounded by, and so was tiring support financially. He photographed it and deduce it fashionable a tape recorder, in the presence of the conciliator who lent it to him.

Current are to boot specified videotapes. We were permitted to see one 20-minute tape and most of altered. These consist of a alleged conciliator idiom in a tot- unite under another name say, answering a list of questions from a alleged newsman.
The conciliator is under another name, and the newsman has his support financially to the camera. The prov- en identities of these two are agreed to Moore and Shandera, they say. No one was put together at the tapings but for these two, recoil Moore, Shandera, and the producer.

The luggage of the tapes are Way Out - equitably and symbolically. We wave around been asked not to print what about the luggage, so we determination skillfully declare that we contract the tangible equitably impressive weakening pick up evi- dence to support financially it up. Moore & Co. purportedly wave around such evidence and insist on to get aloof.

The scenario is that by the end of this blind date, Moore's informants determination either pick up forth surrounded by aloof information and dwell in disclosures, or else Moore determination supply up on his informants and go dwell in, himself, surrounded by all the inform- ation he has obtained so far. In either case, we are in for some lively times!

Current is to a large extent aloof to all this, but Power prevents us from hectic fur- ther in this box. Re our permanent "MJ-12" quest: Our spot on gratitude to, among others, Tommy Roy Blann (who now says he has steeply cool from the UFO field!); to Jim Speiser of ParaNet; to Antonio Huneeus for tangible on the a lot faceless "Humo ID" which he has not yet sent (See Afterward Issue!); and to the understood Power Relations for fabrication all this stupidity pos- sible.

In addition a tip of the "Sign" sombrero to the something else zines that wave around seen fit to reprint or glean some of our "MJ-12" tangible in previous to issues:
"California UFO"; "Would You Believe?"; "The MUFON Relate"; and (ugh!)
"Not persuaded Inquirer".

Top Secret Majic Eyes Only

Bob Collins, author of the controversial "Exempt from Disclosure" UFO book, sent me an email the other day where he noted that "we see the TOP SECRET/MAJIC on many of the classified MJ12 documents" and "all or most of the MAJIC programs would of fallen under SCI or, Sensitive Compartmented Information which is used primarily for Foreign Intelligence or in this case aliens."

Attempting to uncover evidence to prove that a leaked document is authentic when the alleged program behind the document is buried in the black and highly compartmentalized is nearly impossible, even for the FBI, as an FBI source told NY Times reporter Howard Blum.

Left in this position, the next best option is to falsify the document by finding a fatal error proving that the document is a fake.

One particular example is the original MJ-12 "Eisenhower Briefing Document" -- a document that has been under the microscope since it was first revealed in the 1980s.

Unfortunately, amateur sleuths pretending to be experts make unsubstantiated claims based more on personal opinion than comparison to the historical record.

A recent example comes from the amateur debunkers at "Reality Uncovered" -- a web site that proclaims using unethical methods to "out" the "scammers" intend on defrauding the innocent and wealthy, as well as the public at large.

Examples of unsubstantiated claims made by so-called members at RU (including one from a gentleman waiving his current security clearance in my virtual face) have been easily falsified using officially released (FOIA) historical documents available to anyone on line.

Here are a couple of issues that have been raised about the Eisenhower Briefing Document, and why these claims are simply wrong:

FASLE CLAIM: (Klass) The incorrect use of a comma in the date line.

EVIDENCE: Numerous FOIA documents exhibit the same error. After brief look in a couple of US government FOIA electronic reading rooms, I found a document featuring the same superfluous comma in the date line. This document was produced within the same month as the date on the Eisenhower Briefing Document.

FALSE CLAIM: (Reality Uncovered) US government DoD documents are never marked EYES ONLY, thus the MJ-12 briefing must be a fake.

EVIDENCE: Higher level documents, such as National Intelligence Estimates and Daily Briefings are often marked EYES ONLY, even in the modern era. Handfuls of documents may be found with this marking in the CIA's electronic reading room.

FALSE CLAIM: (RU) Classification markings are never boxed in or emphasized.

EVIDENCE: Numerous variations of boxing, underlining, and use of special characters for emphasis may be found in documents from the late 1940s and 1950s, and in some cases, even today (I have an entire file on paraphysical research released by MoD with SECRET inside a box, as an example).

When RU debunkers are faced with the error of their ways, they typically respond by offering demeaning insults, unsupported retorts, and then to cover the trail of their errors, using their "editorial privilege" to delete select portions of text posted at their forum.

This must not remain unanswered.

Use of the public access to the Internet to disinform the public must be met with a swift and just response -- the truth.

So what is the truth?

The closest access for the people, comes from the historical records of the US government.

Although searching the records is a time consuming and frustrating endeavour, it is the one and only means of refuting the bogus claims of the debunkers.

We know, for example, that the Eisenhower document, and many others, are marked as TOP SECRET, MAJIC, EYES ONLY.

We know for a fact that in the 1940s and 1950s (and even today in the United Kingdom) joint intelligence was handled by a JOINT INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, also know as "JIC."

The JIC was a very high level authority which debated and issued intelligence reports based upon a majority opinion.

Further digging revealed a related document JIGSAW (Joint Intelligence Group) -- which features pages of internal committee discussion.

And there, on the real page, is SECRET boxed using dashes.

Not exactly the same as the MAJIC document, but an interesting example for the record.

It's true that no evidence has been found in the historical record to verify MAJIC -- but evidence does exist to debunk the debunker's claims.

In other words, while no evidence exists for a MILITARY AUTHORITY JOINT INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, one should never make false claims to prove it could never have existed.

Someone, somewhere, at sometime created the MJ-12 documents.

Understanding the reasoning behind the elements found in the document is the first step to understanding the thought process of the creator.

That's the difference between using facts, and opinions, something the "Reality Uncovered "crowd needs to learn if they want to be taken seriously.
