This is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the World Government."

Greetings UFOlks,
It's more than a little ironic for me to be "defending" Greer on this issue as I was never a fan of his until he published this white paper (and a different pre 911 version I believe) where he warned about the spin the Government, Military, Industrial Complex/Intelligence Community might put on their eventual release of "the truth" about UFOs as alien technology.
However, I have always agreed with Greer's detractors that his mixing multiple issues (each deserving their own focus, IMO) into his attempts at getting the Government to acknowledge "the reality of UFOs", ultimately sabotages those efforts.
But as for this issue of Shadowy Cabals and UFO Deceptions ... there is more to it than some on this List seem willing to acknowledge.
Firstly, I think it should be pointed out that this same article by Greer appeared on this list back in June 2002:
Cosmic Deception: Let The Citizen Beware
<http://www.virtuallystrange.net/ufo/updates/2002/jun/m13-010.shtml>And a transcript of his discussion of this topic with Art Bell can be found here
<http://www.disclosureproject.org/artbelljune172002.htm>Secondly, this issue of the actual and potential human hand in misusing UFO mimicry technologies and techniques is well established by researchers like Jacques Vallee and other authors. See his 1979 Messengers of Deception, 1975 Invisible College but more recently in his 1991 book Revelations and his 1996 novel Fastwalker. (excerpt/citation 1 below)
Thirdly, upon which fronts might our listers object to the various "Manufactured Enemy" hypotheses, whether they relate to Staged Alien Invasions, British "Martian" Strategems or 911 Parapolitical Fact? The individual accusations within Greer's declaration? Or Greer himself? Apparently it is simply on Greer himself as much of what he discusses in this article is legitimate and of much concern.
... on the very issue of whether groups of humans have ever considered manufacturing enemies:
Within the ParaUfological realms...
In Vallee's 1979 MoD he cites the declassified info in the excellent book on WWII disinformation machinery, Bodyguard of Lies, that describes the massive "double cross" efforts of the LCS, London Controlling Section (referred to by the Brits as the "Martians") that facilitated the allied victory. He speculates about these same Psy-Op tactics and technologies continuing
their disinformation efforts after the war - only this time to prevent another World War by uniting humanity against a common enemy. Vallee goes on to document the common military tactic and meme of manufacturing an enemy in order to rally populations for into a unified force, whether it be to start a war with the perceived enemy or to prevent a war by uniting countries against a common outside threat, be it "Terrorism" or "Extraterrestrials". He cites several late 1940s era science fiction novels dealing with the theme of using an extraterrestrial threat to unite the world. He cites the infamous Report From Iron Mountain hoax which outlines an allegedly tongue-in-cheek thesis for why war is the best way to ensure economic stability and how the invention of threats, be they extraterrestrial or ecological, would be necessary.Report From Iron Mountain

plotted to do just about everything that has "coincidentally" come to pass on and since 911; destroying airliners, killing the Americans onboard, sniper attacks in DC, destruction of America's premier spacecraft, and other staged terror attacks.The authenticity of the Operation Northwoods document has not been questioned in any mainstream fashion though it was acknoweldged pre 911 in news articles by ABCnews, the Baltimore Sun and the previously cited Bamford book.

"Paranoia Pays, But the Hours Suck"
----------Notes/Excerpts/Citations
1 - Jacques Vallee on UFO Deception Theory
From an interview in Jonathan Vankin's 70 Greatest Conspiracies
The military may be experimenting with psychological warfare techniques, as the Germans did in World War I, when they projected images of the Virgin Mary on banks of smoke in an effort to spook the French into saying their Rosaries instead of killing Germans. Vallee also thinks that sham UFO reports might be used as cover for tests of new military stealth technology.
But the most troubling "deception theory" Vallee poses is that from time to time, the target of UFO hoaxes might be the general public, or a segment thereof.
"In some cases," he says, "the community of ufologists may simply be used in a sociological experiment because they are a convenient group of people to test, to see how they react to different rumors."
Sounds a bit improbable, but Vallee's research into the growth of UFO "contactee" cults is suggests that such manipulation occurs. In his book, Messengers of Deception, Vallee explored the rise of a new kind of religious movement throughout the world: the UFO Messiah cults, in which believers await the coming of bubble-headed saviors in saucers. You can find these groups in Europe and the Americas, in increasing numbers.
60GCAT: So there might be military applications for this technology of deception?
Vallee: Our gods have always come from the sky. And how would a god come from the sky today? He would come down in some kind of space ship. He couldn't just appear out of the clouds, I mean, that won't work. Although in World War I the Germans were using psychological warfare by projecting photographs, slides, along French lines. And I'm sure the French were doing the same thing to the Germans. And there are very sophisticated devices now being used in psychological warfare to create holograms, to create visions to influence people.
<http://conspire.com/val3.html>Jacques Vallee on the Human Misuse of UFOs for Deception and Mass Control
"I believe there is a machinery of mass manipulation behind the UFO phenomenon. It aims at social and political goals by diverting attention from some human problems and by providing a potential release for tensions caused by others. The contactees are part of that machinery. They are helping to create a new form of belief: an expectation of actual contact among large parts of the public. In turn this expectation makes millions of
people hope for the imminentrealization of that age-old dream:salvation from above, surrender to the greater power of some wise navigators of the cosmos. . . . However, if you take the trouble to join me in the analysis of the modern UFO myth, you will see human beings under the control of a strange force that is bending them in absurd ways, forcing them to play a role in a bizarre game of deception. This role may be very important if changing social conditions make it desirable to focus the
attention of the public on the distant stars while obsolete human institutions are wiped out and rebuilt in new ways. Is this the deeper meaning of the UFO `deception'? Are the manipulators, in the final analysis, nothing more than a group of humans who have mastered a very advanced form of power? . . . Let me summarize my conclusions thus far. UFOs are real. They are an application of psychotronic technology; that is, they are
physical devices used to affect human consciousness. They may not be from outer space; they may, in fact, be terrestrial-based manipulating devices. Their purpose may be to achieve social changes on this planet." Jacques Vallee, from Messengers of DeceptionSimon Harvey-Wilson on Vallee's book Revelations and French UFO Deceptions
Cergy-Pontoise. Even if various government are involved in UFO deception, their motives and methods may vary considerably. The apparent abduction of Franck Fontaine at Cergy-Pontoise on the outskirts of Paris in November 1979 is a good example. The story is quite complex and is described in several UFO books (Evans, 1984). Franck and a couple of his friends were loading their car with clothes to sell on their stall in a market about sixty
kilometres away. They had got up before dawn and, while the others brought the clothes down from their flat, Franck remained in the car to stop it stalling. They then saw a brilliantly shining UFO and several smaller lights near the car and, after some confusion, Franck was found to be missing. The incident was reported to the police and received nation-wide publicity. One week later Franck reappeared near where he had disappeared and
was amazed to discover that he had been missing for so long. Most books that mention it leave the case open, however in Jacques Vallee's book Revelations: Alien Contact and Human Deception (1991, p.149) we get quite a different story. Vallee quotes an unnamed official from French Air Force headquarters who, in November 1980, admitted that the Cergy-Pontoise abduction had actually been carried out by the French government
in order to observe the reactions and behaviour of the police, media, scientific investigators and the public. The abduction had been authorised by a member of the French cabinet and no more than fifteen people knew what had happened. Franck Fontaine had been grabbed, kept drugged in a secure place for a week and then returned to where he had been abducted without knowing what had really happened to him. Vallee advises that, to eliminate such official deception in future, abductees should be promptly
checked for syringe marks and given blood and urine tests to check for any knockout drugs. If Vallee's report is true, we have the ironic situation of a leading Western government trying to fool the public into thinking that UFO abductions do exist, rather that their usual denials. The question that ufologists may need to ask themselves now, is whether other countries carry out similar fake abductions to assess public reactions, and if so, how often do they do it?

2 - Report From Iron Mountain
The report included a number of recommendations that the government should follow just in case peace did break out. For instance, it suggested that a number of expensive institutions be created that would mimic the economic function of a war, such as: "(a) A comprehensive social-welfare program, directed toward maximum improvement of general conditions of human life. (b) A giant open-end space research program, aimed at unreachable targets. (c) A permanent, ritualized, ultra-elaborate disarmament inspection system, and variant of such a system."
The report also recommended that the government invent "alternate enemies." For instance, it could mobilize the population by scaring them with reports of extraterrestrial threats, massive global environmental pollution, or "an omnipresent, virtually omnipotent international police force." Alternatively, the population could be roused by "socially oriented blood games" done "in the manner of the Spanish Inquisition and the witch trials of other periods."

3 - 911: What Aren't We Being Told? Analysis by John Judge January 2002
"The planning for "terrorist attacks" and the domestic and international response has been going on for nearly 30 years now, with rising levels of sophistication and demand for control. . . .
There were many things that could have been done differently in the last 30 years to end war, terrorism and violence worldwide. The United States not only failed to do them, it often did the opposite. But building a military / intelligence / security apparatus as the sole response possible or desireable insures much more profit, social control and ultimate concentration of power than the path that might lead to real security and peace. Those wishing the latter were rarely consulted by the planners.
At some point, did all this preparatory thinking come to be self-fulfilling prophecy awaiting only it's triggering incident? We have many other examples of this same apparatus both encouraging and standing aside for other violent actions that became the excuse for repressive responses. In Europe it is known as a "strategy of tension" that ultimately puts the hired
guns in charge of the ranch."

4 - Relevance of Antonio Negri to the Anti-Globalization Movement
What's missing from the usual biographies of Toni Negri is the charge that it took him far too long to come to the now commonly accepted conclusions that 1) the terrorist campaign inaugurated by the bombing of the Piazza Fontana in Milano on 12 December 1969 wasn't the work of either the far-left (the anarchists) or the far-right (the fascists), but the Italian secret services; and 2) this campaign -- now called "the strategy of tension" -- wasn't undertaken to destabilize or topple the government, but to provide a pretext for its most reactionary elements to strengthen themselves against an increasingly strong and effective working class movement. The situationist Gianfranco Sanguinetti came to these conclusions as early as 19 December 1969, when he published the extraordinary tract Is the Reichstag
Burning? In the following years, as State-sponsored terrorism against targets in Italy became more common and more obvious, Sanguinetti returned to the subject a couple of times: first in The True Report on the Last Chance to Save Capitalism in Italy (published in July 1975 and reprinted many times afterwards), and then again in Remedy to Everything (also known as On Terrorism and the State), which was published in Italy in 1979 and in France in 1980. Relentlessly persecuted by the Italian government for his writings, Sanguinetti was vindicated in 1982, when the so-called P2 scandal brought to light documents that irrefutably proved that the Italian government had indeed been employing "the strategy of tension" since the end of the 1960s and through-out the 1970s. <http://www.notbored.org/negri.html>
5 - Threats to Democracy: The Radical Right in Italy After the War, Chapters 4 thru 6
This book represents the first systematic research by a social scientist on the radical right-wing movements in Italy since 1945. During the heyday of right-wing violence between 1969 and 1980, street aggressions, attacks, and murders were commonplace. These bloody episodes were assumed to be the work of fanatical bands of "political soldiers" and urban warriors loosely controlled by secret services and other covert groups, which used them as part of a "strategy of tension" pursued in domestic and international circles. Franco Ferraresi here acknowledges that these rightist groups were in fact permitted a certain amount of freedom, and even in some cases actually aided, in the hope that revulsion at terrorist tactics would have the effect of mobilizing public opinion in favor of existing political
arrangements. However, he also studies the extent to which they operated as autonomous units, while he carefully considers the political heritage, the doctrines, and the ideology that motivated them.With the decline of violent activity on both extremes of the political spectrum in the early 1980s, the theory and practice so comprehensively discussed by Ferraresi seemed to have entered a dormant stage. Ferraresi, however, places in context the recent resurgence of neo-fascist forces in Italy, and of the so-called New Right throughout Europe, together with the rise of fundamentalism in many parts of the world.

7 - Mae Brussell on the Strategy of Tension
Transcribed excerpt (by the ever-active Brian Redman of Conspiracy Nation fame) from a broadcast by Dave Emory on KFJC radio in Los Altos Hills, California. In this show, Emory discusses the 1987 book, The Ultimate Evil, journalist Maury Terry's investigation of the Son of Sam murders.
Mae Brussell has been pointing out, for a number of years, her thesis -- which has endured, by the way, a lot of scorn at the hands of many people -- that in fact all of these serial killers were, in fact, a form of agent provocateur. What this is, basically, according to Mae's thesis (and it appears to be borne out in terrifying fashion and degree by this particular book) is that this is a type of application of the "strategy of tension". That is you take a society and you unleash all of these horrendous screwball killers -- or killers we're told are screwballs -- it has the effect of driving the political spectrum to the "right". People want "law and order". They want
stronger laws, more cops, more jails, quicker capital punishment. And in general, it predisposes them to accepting the incredible. It's just, "Well with all those 'nuts' out there, you never know who's gonna do what." So, if 900 people "commit suicide" in the jungle under preposterous circumstances, or if "lone nuts" come foreward and begin killing politicians, it ... there's a context in which that occurs.But again, this is a way of driving people to the "right". These horrible killings, these apparent screwballs running all over the place, just gives the impression of a society that is decaying. "What we need is 'law and order.'" "We need a Fuehrer." "We need someone to set this right." We need ....... George Bush!!

9 - Operation Northwoods documents obtained via FOIA
April 30, 2001 - Pentagon Proposed Pretexts for Cuba Invasion in 1962
In his new expose of the National Security Agency entitled Body of Secrets, author James Bamford highlights a set of proposals on Cuba by the Joint Chiefs of Staff codenamed OPERATION NORTHWOODS. This document, titled "Justification for U.S. Military Intervention in Cuba" was provided by the JCS to Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara on March 13, 1962, as the key component of Northwoods. Written in response to a request from the Chief of the Cuba Project, Col. Edward Lansdale, the Top Secret memorandum describes U.S. plans to covertly engineer various pretexts that would justify a U.S. invasion of Cuba. These proposals - part of a secret anti-Castro program known as Operation Mongoose - included staging the assassinations of Cubans living in the United States, developing a fake "Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Florida cities and even in Washington," including "sink[ing] a boatload of Cuban refugees (real or simulated)," faking a Cuban airforce attack on a civilian jetliner, and concocting a "Remember the Maine" incident by blowing up a U.S. ship in Cuban waters and then blaming the incident on Cuban sabotage. Bamford himself writes that Operation Northwoods "may be the most corrupt plan ever created by the U.S. government."

11 - Counterfeit Foe - The Ultimate Hegelian Dialectic by Paul Joseph Watson
Military-industrial psy-ops has considered such programs before
Let's delve into the evidence of how technological deception has been considered before, as a means of misleading populations. The Kennedy era, anti-Castro covert action plan Operation Mongoose was designed to destabilize Cuban society and turn it against Fidel Castro. Under the umbrella of this strategy was a program dubbed 'Elimination by Illumination.' It is found in the Congressional Record, in "Alleged Assassination Plots Involving Foreign Leaders, Interim Report of the Select Committee to Study Government Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities," November 20, 1975. The plan was developed by an American
Intelligence military psy-op specialist named Edward Lansdale.The operation was to have an American Submarine surface inside Havana harbor at night and project a movie of a Jesus-like figure on the underside of the low-lying clouds that form over the harbor at night. A plane with muffled motors was to have circled just above the clouds while another operative with a loudspeaker exhorted the Cubans below to overthrow "Godless Communism."
The plan was never put into action but was seriously considered and, as stated, remains in the Congressional Record to this day.
An almost exact replica of this proposal came to light in a June 2000 Sydney Morning Herald report.
In 1991 during the Gulf War, top brass of the US Air Force drew up plans to project a giant holographic image of Allah over Baghdad. The scale of the project dictated a mirror several kilometres across up in space. However, a more practical method was suggested. When warm air lies on top of cold air, the difference in density is enough to bend light. At higher altitudes, a mirage can make whole landscapes appear in the sky. An artificial mirage could in theory be made by heating the atmosphere with radio waves or microwaves. The USAF then had the problem of making the image appear to speak. They postulated, "a pulse stream, an internal acoustic field of 5- 15KHz can be created which is audible. Thus it may be possible to 'talk' to adversaries in a way which would be most disturbing to them."
