Remember the song, "Men In Black" by Will Smith?

What a great song, especially as the theme song for the movie in which he co-starred, "MIB". It was catchy, novel, and forced even the stodgiest of personalities to tap their feet. But, it was much more than that. It stated a lot of truth.

For instance, it stated the official position of the UFO/ET secret keepers: 'Cause what you think you saw, you did not see. That is precisely the official position, and has been since shortly after the Roswell crash in 1947. It started with General Ramey's actions just hours after the Army's press release that they were in possession of a crashed flying disc. Ramey held a press conference in which he had Major Jesse Marcel, Intelligence Officer for the Army Air Force's 509th Bomb Group, appear for reporters with scraps from a weather balloon while Ramey declared it was all just a case of mistaken identification of crash debris. It wasn't a flying disc after all. It was a weather balloon.

One need only look at the expression on Maj. Marcel's face in those photos to see behind the cover up. His expression literally screams, "Are you kidding? Are you guys really buying this?"

Marcel began to talk about the Roswell crash and this press conference, in his later years. When he began to talk about it, he told the world that the craft that crashed at Roswell was genuinely not from this world. He also said that there had been a cover up, and that he was part of it right from the start. He said that Ramey had ordered it, and he (Marcel) being a good soldier, did as he was ordered.

Perhaps the most blatant, in your face, aspect of General Ramey's lie to the American people was what Ramey held in his hand during this birthing of the mother of all cover ups.

While Ramey was telling the press that there was no crashed flying disc, that the entire thing was just misidentified debris from a crashed weather balloon, he was holding absolute proof that he was lying. While Major Marcel was following orders and holding up pieces of a crashed weather balloon for the reporters to see, General Ramey held something quite different in his hands.

The piece of paper General Ramey held in his hands can be seen in the one of the four photos shot at this press conference. At the time, there was no technology capable of reading what was on that paper. But now, there is. By use of modern optical and computer technology, the writing on that piece of paper has been read.

There are several excellent sites that delve into the Ramey "telegram" quite extensively, and provide the text of the telegram. It turns out that the telegram held by Ramey at the very time he is telling the reporters that it was all just a mistake, and that the debris was really from a crashed weather balloon, literally declares the General is engaging in an outright lie.

The telegram is from Ramey to General Vandenberg and the Pentagon. It speaks of the flying disc, survivors, and the planned cover up with the story about weather balloons. This entire farce being played out in front of the reporters is outlined in the Ramey telegram he is holding in his hand. He is, in effect, holding the script for the cover up he is perpetrating. Never mind the many, many, credible witnesses. Never mind the fact that people had actually touched the debris and seen for themselves its other-worldliness. Never mind the fact that the Army had already slipped up and told the truth in a press release. The official line was, what you think you saw, you did not see. And that has been the official position ever since.

Like good little minions of the cover up, the media of that day just chuckled and went away. Not one of them had the testicular fortitude to say, "Hold on. Marcel, you are one of the best trained and highest regarded air intelligence officers the U.S.A. has. How is it that you don't know a weather balloon when you see one?"

Since that day in 1947, the controllers of the cover up have believed the American people are stupid and easily duped. They have given us swamp gas, flares, jets on exercise, and commercial aircraft as the cover stories, and they truly thought we would buy it.

While Americans are finally beginning to wake up to the facts, the controllers and keepers of the secrets are still spinning tales of flares hoisted by helium balloons and jets on exercise. They must truly believe that the simple misdirection and lying of 1947 will still work. But it does not work-not at all.

A growing number of people have finally awakened to the facts and do not respond well to being told, what you think you saw, you did not see. They know when they are looking at an aircraft and when they are looking at something entirely different. They know their video cameras do not capture images of hallucinations. The cover uppers are still at it, but they have no cover left to use. Whatever lids they think they had on the fact that we are being visited by extraterrestrial beings of advanced intelligence have been blown off long ago. People simply do not buy the mushroom food that officialdom continues to try to feed them.

You have had eyes your entire life.
When was the last time you thought you saw a cow that turned out to be a Corvette? When was the last time you saw a jet that turned out to be a bumblebee?

Never!

So why would you allow anyone to convince you that when you see a UFO it is really a Chinese wedding candle?

Nonsense.

If, and I stress the word "if," there is still a need to keep UFO information secret, these guys should invest in better scriptwriters.

Stephensville, Texas January 2008

There is no better proof of this than the January 2008 incident in Stephenville, Texas.

The Air Force first said they had no aircraft flying in that area at the date and time of the alleged UFO sighting. But hundreds of witnesses insisted they saw fighter jets chasing after the UFO. Then the Air Force came out with a statement that was essentially, "Ooops. We did have jets flying exercises in the area and we just forgot about them." When that went over like a nuke in the punch bowl, the Air Force went silent on it all.

What you think you saw, you did not see are cute lyrics to a cool song, but they just do not work any more with a public now enlightened. It is still the standard operating procedure of the keepers of the secrets, but we know damn well what we saw, and we are not going to be convinced by spin-doctors that our eyes are lying. There are things flying in our skies that are not from this world. We may not know where they are from, who pilots them, or what they intend, but we know for sure they are not flares, weather balloons, or swamp gas.
