The UFOs-Nukes Connection Press Conference: Witness Affidavits and Declassified Documents




An Authorized UFO-Nukes Connection Release

     Worldwide media coverage relating to the press conference on UFOs and Nukes, held at the National Press Club in Washington D.C. on September 27, 2010, has been absolutely amazing. Sponsored by former U.S. Air Force Captain Robert Salas and myself, the event showcased stunning UFO incidents at nuclear weapons sites, as revealed by former USAF personnel who were directly or indirectly involved in them.

Later in this article, I have inserted the witnesses’ affidavits, in which they describe their personal encounters in detail. Also included is the small cross-section that Mr. Salas and I distributed to the reporters present for the event.

The primary purpose of the press conference was to attract mainstream media attention to the issue of ongoing U.S. government secrecy relating to UFOs in general, and nukes-related UFO activity in particular. Simply put, Mr. Salas and I—as well as the other six participants—believe that the time has come for the truth to be revealed to not only the American people but all mankind.

Since the end of World War II, in 1945, the ominous specter of nuclear Armageddon has haunted our planet, to one degree or another. While the potentially catastrophic brinksmanship practiced by both the U.S. and former Soviet Union during the Cold War era has receded, at least for the moment, thousands of nukes still exist and, therefore, remain an ongoing threat to the future of the human race.

If one examines even a small cross-section of the UFO cases involving nuclear missile sites and weapons storage depots, it quickly becomes apparent that dramatic incidents have taken place, largely out of public view, which have not only national security implications but planetary consequences. Someone, piloting vastly superior aerial craft, has been monitoring and sometimes tampering with the weapons—on both sides of the ocean. Declassified KGB documents and testimony by former Soviet Army personnel confirm that the U.S.S.R. experienced the same kind of incidents as their American military counterparts.

But this is not ancient history: I am aware of two relatively recent nukes-related UFO incidents, occurring at the Nellis AFB, Nevada, Area 2 Weapons Storage Area, in 2003, and near an ICBM launch control site—now known as a Missile Alert Facility—outside of Malmstrom AFB, Montana, in 2007.

Moreover, based on civilian eyewitness accounts and photographs, it seems likely that a UFO incursion occurred at the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station, in Orange County , California , in March 2009. In fact, based on my 37-year study of the UFO-Nukes Connection and my knowledge of the frequency of such cases, I consider it a virtual certainty that a UFO incursion took place, at some nuclear weapons-related facility somewhere, within the past year.

My opinion, given the available evidence, is that beings from another world have been observing the nuclear arms race for decades and have occasionally disrupted the functionality of the weapons to demonstrate their displeasure and concern. In essence, I think the nuclear powers are being warned that they are playing with fire.

I have been interviewing ex-U.S. military personnel about all of this since 1973, and have spoken about their revelations at over 500 American colleges and universities since 1981. Although local media coverage relating to my lectures over the years has been generally objective and quite favorable, the national media—with rare exceptions—simply would not touch this story. That is, until now. I am pleased to report that CNN, CBS, ABC and Fox News—among other major mainstream media organizations in the U.S. —covered the press conference objectively and in detail. Internationally, major news outlets in the UK , Russia , Japan , Australia , Ireland and many other countries covered the event as well.

That said, there remains mainstream media resistance to covering the dramatic nukes-related UFO revelations. For example, The New York Times—supposedly the newspaper–of-record in the U.S. —completely ignored last week’s press conference. I will have more to say on this subject in a future article.
