The goal was to get the public used to the reality that<br \/>\n\u201cwe are not alone\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Many <a href=\"http:\/\/www.presidentialufo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">U.S. Presidents<\/a> have known about UFO\u2019s from \u201couter space\u201d. On February 22, 1944, President Franklin Roosevelt wrote a \u201cDouble Top Secret\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.majesticdocuments.com\/pdf\/fdr_22feb44.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">memorandum<\/a><br \/>\nto the \u201cThe Special Committee on Non-Terrestrial Science and<br \/>\nTechnology\u201d. He wrote about using \u201c\u2026non-terrestrial know-how in atomic<br \/>\nenergy\u2026\u201d and&#0160; \u201c\u2026coming to grips with the reality that our planet is not<br \/>\nthe only one harboring intelligent life in the universe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The<br \/>\n1947 crash of a \u201cflying saucer\u201d in Roswell, NM was acknowledged by the<br \/>\nArmy on one day and denied the next day with a staged photo of some<br \/>\nman-made debris. But witnesses reported that there were bodies and<br \/>\ndebris not from Earth. At the time, Roswell Army Base was the only<br \/>\nauthorized location to store atomic bombs.<\/p>\n<p>The 1951 DESS movie<br \/>\ntakes place in Washington, D.C. with an ethical emissary from outer<br \/>\nspace seeking peaceful relations with Earth and warning world leaders<br \/>\nto not use atomic weapons. In real life, the following year in July<br \/>\n1952, numerous UFO\u2019s were seen hovering over the U.S. Capitol for<br \/>\nhours. Photos of the UFO\u2019s were part of front-page stories.<\/p>\n<p>On Feb. 20-21, 1954, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.american.edu\/salla\/Articles\/Exo-SP-8.htm\" target=\"_blank\">President Eisenhower met representatives from another planet<\/a>. Dr. Michael Salla of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exopoliticsinstitute.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Exopolitics Institute<\/a><br \/>\nhas offered details of this from eyewitnesses. The purpose of the<br \/>\nmeeting was to negotiate a treaty in which the extraterrestrial people<br \/>\ndemanded that the U.S. stop exploding atomic bombs. Eisenhower didn\u2019t<br \/>\ngo for it. Nine days later on March 1st, the U.S. exploded its largest<br \/>\nnuclear bomb to this day. The author of this article was born the same<br \/>\nday.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, many times <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cohenufo.org\/Military%20Nuclear%20Specialists%20Testify%20To%20UFO%20Reality.htm\" target=\"_blank\">extraterrestrial craft shut down nuclear missiles<\/a><br \/>\nbeyond the control of base commanders. Some of these commanders have<br \/>\nspoken publicly about this on American television during 2008. But<br \/>\nthere was never any hostile intent by the alien crafts observed.<\/p>\n<p>So read a little about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.disclosureproject.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">disclosure<\/a><br \/>\nof UFO\u2019s and extraterrestrials. Then see if you can tell fact from<br \/>\nfiction in the old or new version of this movie. Most of all though,<br \/>\nhave fun.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/x-2024-Denver-UFO-Examiner%7Ey2008m12d11-Is-The-Day-the-Earth-Stood-Still-fiction-or-fact\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/x-2024-Denver-UFO-Examiner~y2008m12d11-Is-The-Day-the-Earth-Stood-Still-fiction-or-fact<\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"border: 1px solid #333333; margin: 5px; padding: 5px; font-size: 11px; width: 285px; background-color: #ffffff;\"><strong>For more info:&#0160;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.extracampaign.org\">www.extracampaign.org<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paradigmresearchgroup.org\/main.html\">www.paradigmresearchgroup.org\/main.html<\/a><br \/><\/strong><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1143","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1143"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1143\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omniversity.us\/exopolitics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
