UFO Cover-Up - PRG Urge President Obama to End Truth Embargo
By Ian Brockwell 
The Paradigm Research Group (PRG) has recently announced "a renewed international effort to convince Barack Obama to end a 62-year truth embargo preventing formal government acknowledgement of an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race."
The following is an extract from the Press Release issued by PRG on January 8, 2010:
"Since June 1, 2009 letters, faxes and emails from around the world have been sent to the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) insisting the reporters in the White House press corps begin asking politically related UFO/ET questions and receive appropriate answers. Samples of this correspondence can be viewed at: http://tinyurl.com/yb4wvay and http://tinyurl.com/62748k"
The Press Release mentions the thousands of letters, faxes and emails that have been sent to Barack Obama for more than a year, demanding an end to the truth embargo and calling for congressional hearings on the UFO/ET issue, but these have not been acknowledged.
PRG executive director Stephen Bassett stated, "France, Denmark, Canada, Australia, Sweden, Brazil, Russia, the United Kingdom and other countries have recently released tens of thousands of UFO/ET related files into the public domain. The message to the U.S. is clear, if you do not end this truth embargo, one of us will." Bassett added "Either Russia or China would benefit enormously by acting first on this issue"
For those who take the UFO subject seriously, and there are many of us who do, there seems to be no doubt that important information is being withheld.
The most famous "cover-up" is probably the Roswell incident, where evidence seems to suggest that an alien craft crash landed in New Mexico and alien inhabitants were discovered at the site. However, despite the presence of a number of believable witnesses and an initial admission from the authorities that an alien craft was recovered, the story changed dramatically within a matter of hours. The Alien craft quickly became a "weather balloon" and the rest is history.
Stephen Bassett is of course correct that many countries have released thousands of files, which were previously classified, about UFO and Alien sightings. Whether these files account for all of the reports received by the authorities is uncertain.
I have studied many of these old reports, and whilst some are certainly mysterious, the majority are fairly routine and can perhaps be explained. There are many more recent sightings that would also be interesting to read about, but maybe we will have to wait another 20 years before these reports are released?
Whilst I would agree that all governments should release this information, they clearly had some reason for keeping it a secret. With that thought in mind, can we really expect them to come clean now?
If there is some cover-up in the US, as the evidence would suggest, there must be some truth to these rumours. As they say "There is no smoke without fire"
Has there been some Alien contact with certain individuals on our planet? And if there has, why is this being kept from us? Has some deal been made and the gift of "new" technology the price paid for silence? Does Obama know the real truth, or is he kept in the dark also?
I personally feel that the government/authorities can not be trusted to provide the answers that we seek and this task will rest on those that have researched this subject for such a long time.
There are many excellent sites that are involved in providing professional reports on UFO and Alien sightings, not to mention the thousands of people who take the trouble to investigate these events (in their own time and at their own expense). But perhaps what we need is to work together more and gather the information in a more productive way?
Our goal is, and always has been, to obtain proof that UFO's and life on other planets exist. We can not rely on a government to help us with this work and must increase our efforts to uncover the truth for ourselves.
This is no easy task, and it will require the development of greater investigative skills, and perhaps an element of danger? In order to obtain more credibility for UFO research (from members of the public who do not share our belief), we must make an effort to reduce the number of reports that can be ridiculed because of their lack of substance and quickly denounce those that are clearly hoaxes.
However, that said, I applaud the efforts made by the Paradigm Research Group, and this attempt should be supported. It may not produce the results required, but there is certainly no harm in trying.
If you have any suggestions on how we can overcome the "cover-up" problem for ourselves, please drop me a line with your ideas.
