Introduction
A while ago, I posted a text in Swedish where I
In the following text, I am going to summarise the main thoughts and reflections I bring up in the Swedish text posted on August 23, 2018.
I would like to begin by emphasising that
Even if my work with this blog has expanded my knowledge about the UFO phenomena and, in some instances, changed my views on some aspects of the phenomena, I do not consider myself having a better understanding of the big questions like "What is the UFO phenomena?", "Who or what is behind it?", "Why are ´they´here?", "Cover up or not?", "Disclosure?", and so on and so forth.
In fact, I am struggling with more questions about the UFO phenomena today compared with when I started this blog in Februaryhave made me even more fascinated with the UFO phenomena than before.
I also want to underline that, at the moment, I do not have a favourite hypothesis about the UFO phenomena, or a favourite UFO researcher. Of course, I think the work of some researchers is more credible and relevant than others, but it does not mean that I agree with every word they say or write about the UFO phenomena and its related aspects.
What I can say with certainty and integrity is that no human being has a full understanding of what the UFO phenomenon is about. No group of people sits on the ultimate truth of the UFO phenomenon. Another thing I can say with the same certainty and integrity is that the UFO phenomenon has no black or white answers or explanations. That has become very clear to me during my work on this blog.
Remember, I am simplifying and speculating about the specific questions and aspects of the UFO phenomena I am covering in the text below. There are other relevant questions about the UFO phenomena to discuss, but a comprehensive discussion is impossible even in a 600-page book. Less so in a blog post byan armchair commentator on the UFO issue.
Ok, here we go.
The question concerns the date of the New York Times' first article about the Pentagon's AATIP UFO program and the DoD's (the US Department of Defence) released UFO videos, known as "Gimble", "Go Fast", and "Tic Tac".
First of all, I am well aware of and familiar with "Project Mockingbird", so I think it is reasonable to be skeptical towards everything the NYT, the Washington Post, and other mainstream media are publishing on the UFO phenomena in particular.
Second, I am also well aware of the history of lies, denial, misinformation and deliberate stigmatisation of the reality of the UFO phenomena by the military, intelligence agencies and other players in the whole "military-industrial complex" (whatever that term exactly means and includes). So, I think it is equally reasonable to look at the question "Why now, after decades of lies?", with skepticism and discernment.
But as I have said in a previous post, there is a big difference between sound skepticism and unsound skepticism. The latter borders on paranoia, and that is not helpful for anyone, especially not for the person or people suffering from unsound skepticism.
Yes, I was also highly skeptical when the NYT published its first AATIP-article inDecember 2017 , and I continued to be so sometime afterwards. I followed the pro and con debate regarding "confirmation of the UFO phenomenon or not?"
Then I digested everything and decided about what the New York Times' AATIP-articles (hereafter NYT AATIP-article( )
Despitethat it
At the very least, a confirmation of the reality and significance of the physical/technological aspect of the UFO issue. But was the fall and winter of 2017 also the beginning of disclosure of the UFO phenomena? After all, confirmation and disclosure are two entirely different things.
So why do I think the NYT AATIP-articles with the UFO videoswere a confirmation , rather than the same old game of disinformation, ridicule or distraction
I can give several reasons for the confirmation scenario, but I think one obvious reason suffices to show that the NYT AATIP-articles + the UFO-videos were not some kind of mind-game by the Pentagon, DoD, etc.
The obvious reason is that we have to ask ourselves what the Pentagon/DoD gained by handing over the UFO material and letting the NYT publish it? That is, if the military and intelligence agencies' agenda is to keep denying the existence of and maintaining the secrecy surrounding the UFO phenomena?
What was the effect of the NYT AATIP-articles, and the creation of TTSA? Especially in the United States of America? So, how has mainstream media's increased coverage of the UFO phenomena and the UFO subject's elevated status as a legitimate topic for serious discussion supported the national security apparatus in its goal to maintain the status quo?
But, was it not the former director of AATIP, Luis Elizondo, who after his resignation released the UFO videos and handed the information about AATIP to journalist Leslie Kean, and the other writers of the AATIP-articles in the NYT?
My answer is: No way! And how?! Was Luis Elizondo given the information and videos as a gift for leaving the Pentagon and DoD, and given permission to do whatever he felt with the defence- and national security material? Common sense says: Of course not!
That takes me to the initial and main question: Was the 16th of December, 2017, the first step in a careful and selective disclosure process of the UFO phenomena? Does the date stand for more than a confirmation?
Today, and after over eight months of the NYT AATIP-articles, I am inclined to answer yes. Yes, it was more than a confirmation of the UFO phenomena by the Pentagon, DoD, and other players involved in the UFO issue.
Yes, I am inclined to think and say that the 16th of December, 2017, was the first step in a bigger strategy for a careful and selective disclosure process of the UFO phenomena.
Like Jacques Vallée has a hypothesis about the UFO phenomena being a "cybernetic system" or a "control mechanism", I believe that humanity since the 16th of December, 2017, is in a conditioning process, or perhaps, in a conditioning phase of a grander process. We are being conditioned to the reality and truth of the UFO phenomena. Bit by bit, small steps at a time.
Or we may think of the current phase of the careful and selective disclosure process as a preparation and educational phase.
What made me more certain and confident to voice my opinion or belief that we are now in a preparation- and educational phase was the recent presentation by Luis Elizondo, which you can watch and listen to here. I particularly found the last third of the presentation as the most interesting and telling (starts around 23:45 minutes into the presentation of a total 31 minutes). If you listen to the last third of Elizondo's presentation, I think you will understand why I believe that a careful and selective disclosure process started on the 16th of December, 2017.
I believe there are also reasons to be concerned and skeptical about what otherwise seems to be a great momentum and opportunity for the world to finally know the truth about the UFO phenomena.
It is here that it gets difficult for me to clearly see the complete picture. What is going on?
The complexity of the UFO phenomena becomes clear when you study the experiencer aspect, abduction cases, and, for example, the phenomena at the Skinwalker Ranch.
Those aspects of the UFO phenomena have made the most impact on my view about the UFO phenomena and influenced my opinions about the phenomena the strongest. In what way, and how, was difficult for me to describe even in Swedish, so I am not sure I should even try in English.
What I can say - and I discuss and speculate about it at length in the Swedish text - is that I believe that the experiencer aspect of the UFO phenomena, is a central factor for decades of denial and ridicule of the UFO phenomena by the world's military and intelligence agencies.
It is not the only central factor or reason, but one of the strongest reasons for driving and keeping the secrecy surrounding the UFO phenomena. Of course, that is speculation on my part.
But when I studied the experiencer and abduction aspects, and the Skinwalker phenomena more in-depth, I found myself totally lost. I now understand why some people - both UFO researchers and armchair commentators like myself - avoid the experiencer and abduction aspect. Even if you find the research material and witness testimonies credible, the UFO phenomena/subject suddenly becomes as elusive as entanglement in quantum physics.
I believe this elusiveness of the UFO phenomena is, to a large degree, intentional from who- or whatever is causing it. I also come to believe that it may be the case that the human brain cannot grasp "why?" or "how?" the phenomena are occurring in our reality.
The experiencer- and abduction aspect has messed with my mind. Both in good and bad ways.
The experiencer- and abduction aspect has convinced me that full disclosure of the UFO phenomena is going to be a heavy mix of "light and dark", "hope and despair", "belief and disbelief", "trauma and healing", "order and chaos", and so on.
My opinion is that the truth about the UFO phenomena eventually, and in one way or another, will be known by the public.
But I am not so sure how humanity will react to and handle the truth about the UFO phenomena.
In fact, I am struggling with more questions about the UFO phenomena today compared with when I started this blog in February

But with that said...
I believe there are also reasons to be concerned and skeptical about what otherwise seems to be a great momentum and opportunity for the world to finally know the truth about the UFO phenomena.
It is here that it gets difficult for me to clearly see the complete picture. What is going on?
Also, what constitutes the truth of the UFO phenomena? "Careful and selective disclosure" can mean different things and can unfold in numerous ways. Who or whom is directing and controlling the careful and selective disclosure process? What are their motives? What drives them?
More specifically, what kind of information about the UFO phenomena would a disclosure entail?
In the first half of the above presentation by Luis Elizondo, he talks about a "laundry list" of subjects, disciplines, which from a military standpoint are very interesting to study and develop. This laundry list, unintentionally or intentionally, got into the public domain some weeks ago from the date of this post.
Also remember the word "threat" in Pentagon's UFO-program, "Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program" (AATIP). There was an earlier UFO-program, also by the Pentagon, with the name "Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program" (AAWSAP). The keyword in the title, of course, being "Weapon."
In my ears, the words "threat" and "weapon" do not sound so good, considering the context and the phenomena we are discussing.
Does the national security apparatus - and I am including TTSA in my vague term - perceive some or all UFOs to be a threat? A threat to humanity, a specific nation, the military, religion, social norms?
Or is the use of words like "threat" and "weapon" a way of covering-up data and knowledge about UFOs that the military finds highly useful to study and develop to acquire an advantage over foreign nations? To control outer space?
Or does the national security apparatus have knowledge and understanding about the UFO phenomena that it, for some reasons, is not yet prepared to share with the public? What kind of knowledge and understanding? Or is the US military - and likely other nations' military - afraid or ashamed of not knowing enough about UFOs? What are the motives behind decades of ridicule and secrecy of the UFO phenomena: Greed, self-interest, power, control, and paranoia? Pride? Denial and ignorance?

Or are there more benevolent reasons for not going full disclosure, like, for example, protecting the mental and emotional health of the public?
Yes, it is quite easy to become conspiratorial with all those questions. At the same time, I think above stated questions, and other questions not mentioned here, are relevant to ask and keep asking, as we move along and experience the development of this careful and selective disclosure process.
What I am most concerned about is that the whole careful and selective disclosure process is owned by the national security state apparatus. That apparatus is, mostly, I would guess, made up of individuals from the military, the intelligence community, the world of finance, and private contractors. And the apparatus is most likely transnational.

These are people with a certain mindset. They are trained to perceive reality in a specific way. And most worrisome, they are very good at what they do.
I dislike the idea that those kinds of people are going to have a monopoly on the disclosure process.
On the other hand, I do not believe that the national security apparatus is monolithic in its way of viewing and thinking about the UFO phenomena or disclosure, or thinking about what is the right thing to do regarding transparency about the truth of the UFO issue.
Perhaps a part of the answer to "why disclosure now?" has to do with power dynamics between at least two factions within the national security state apparatus with different views and opinions on the UFO phenomena and disclosure?
Or maybe the answer is simply that everything in the world changes, nothing stays the same?
Or maybe it is only wishful thinking on my part? However, I am carefully optimistic about this time around. Promises of and attempts at disclosure of the UFO phenomena have happened many times before since the 1950s.

Many in the ufo community are highly skeptical of the whole situation I have been describing and discussing above. That is, that there is an ongoing, careful and selective disclosure process of the UFO phenomena. I understand and respect that. We have to keep being vigilant and use our discernment about the what, how, who, when and why, as the careful and selective disclosure process unfolds in front of our eyes.
I am now going to move on to the next aspect I want to bring up in this text.
The next aspect of the UFO phenomena I reflect upon in the Swedish text posted August 23, 2018, is the complexity of the UFO phenomena.
I am now going to move on to the next aspect I want to bring up in this text.
The complexity of the UFO phenomena: reason for the secrecy?
The next aspect of the UFO phenomena I reflect upon in the Swedish text posted August 23, 2018, is the complexity of the UFO phenomena.
It has become clear to me during my work with this blog that we are not dealing with a phenomenon, but "phenomena". Behind the UFO phenomena is much more than the physical/technological aspect with "aliens", "extraterrestrials", "non-human entities", or whatever we want to label the intelligence we imagine is manoeuvring the UFOs. Some UFOs are physical objects with physical occupants from who knows where, but definitely not all UFOs.
The complexity of the UFO phenomena becomes clear when you study the experiencer aspect, abduction cases, and, for example, the phenomena at the Skinwalker Ranch.
Those aspects of the UFO phenomena have made the most impact on my view about the UFO phenomena and influenced my opinions about the phenomena the strongest. In what way, and how, was difficult for me to describe even in Swedish, so I am not sure I should even try in English.

My opinion is that the truth about the UFO phenomena eventually, and in one way or another, will be known by the public.
But I am not so sure how humanity will react to and handle the truth about the UFO phenomena.
I find it likely that not an insignificant minority of people around the world will have a hard time digesting and coping with the truth. Some will wish that they had never got to know the truth and that things just could go back to normal.
But the world will never be the same after full disclosure of the UFO phenomena. How we perceive reality and ourselves will never be the same after full disclosure.
What we think of as possible and impossible to occur in this reality and world will forever be changed after full disclosure.
Something or someone, or both, is crashing into our reality, whether we like it. Who or what is visiting and leaving our world and reality, however and whenever "they" like it? And why?
I obviously do not have any answers to those questions. But I can speculate that we soon may have to think differently about the part of our world and our reality. This part is also going to be one of the most difficult implications of the UFO phenomena for many in the public to digest and handle.
The reason for decades of secrecy of the UFO phenomena has not for a long time been the "people will panic" if they got to know that not only are we not alone in the universe, but we are also visited by "others." I believe that implication of the UFO phenomena is the least shocking for most people to know and get used to.
So, let me try to tie up both of the aspects I have brought up in this text and summarise my main thoughts.
I am to a high degree certain that October and December in 2017, was the starting point of a careful and selective disclosure process of the UFO phenomena by one of at least two factions in the national security state apparatus. The apparatus is not confined to the borders of the U.S. but is rather a collection of people mainly from the domains of the military, intelligence agencies, finance, and private companies. Both inside and outside the U.S.
Another way to look at and think about the careful and selective disclosure process is that it comprises different phases, each phase with a specific goal and desirable effect.
I believe we went into a "preparation phase" when the NYT AATIP-articles with the associated UFO-videos was published in December 2017. The faction inside and outside the Pentagon/DoD, CIA, etc., and other high-level people outside the USA, are well aware that the public needs to be mentally and emotionally prepared for the truth of the UFO phenomena.
There is a thin line between education and conditioning. Are we slowly being educated, or conditioned, on the reality of a phenomena that is much more complex than the physical/technological aspect?
At the moment we are being educated in the physical aspect of the UFO phenomena. We are conditioned to see and hear the mainstream media seriously reporting on UFO sightings and UFO cases. The goal of this phase of the disclosure process is to make UFOs/UAP a legitimate topic to be interested in.
But what kind of information will follow the physical aspect of the UFO phenomena?
How do you tell the public that people are being abducted from their homes by "others" against their will? How do you tell the public about all the bizarre manifestations and displays of the phenomena at the Skinwalker Ranch?
Or are we going to get the wrong education about what the UFOs/UAP are all about?
But the world will never be the same after full disclosure of the UFO phenomena. How we perceive reality and ourselves will never be the same after full disclosure.
What we think of as possible and impossible to occur in this reality and world will forever be changed after full disclosure.

To summarise
I am to a high degree certain that October and December in 2017, was the starting point of a careful and selective disclosure process of the UFO phenomena by one of at least two factions in the national security state apparatus. The apparatus is not confined to the borders of the U.S. but is rather a collection of people mainly from the domains of the military, intelligence agencies, finance, and private companies. Both inside and outside the U.S.
I have mixed thoughts and feelings about the careful and selective disclosure process. I am ok with the word "careful", but the word "selective" is more troubling, or potentially troubling. There is a possibility that the selective part can have understandable reasons behind it or oppressive reasons behind it. I am simplifying, I know.
The oppressive reasons could have to do with the military and intelligence agencies eager to construct new toys to play with, both on Earth and in space. The players from the domains of finance and private contractors see an opportunity to make big money and invent never before seen toys.
The more understandable reasons could have to do with the complexity of the UFO phenomena and the experience- and abduction aspects of the phenomena. The sheer volume of information and material on the phenomena for the public, politicians, media, and lawmakers to digest and cope with is reason enough to be careful and selective.
But perhaps the biggest reason for being careful and selective is the implications of the UFO phenomena? For example, the impact of the truth on people's mental and emotional health.
But perhaps the biggest reason for being careful and selective is the implications of the UFO phenomena? For example, the impact of the truth on people's mental and emotional health.
The truth of the UFO phenomena will change what we perceive as possible or impossible to occur in our reality. I believe the whole truth about the UFO phenomena and the full insight into its implications will, for some in the public, be overwhelming and perhaps even traumatic.
Another way to look at and think about the careful and selective disclosure process is that it comprises different phases, each phase with a specific goal and desirable effect.

Are we going to be conditioned to go from one illusion of reality to another illusion?
Time will tell. Meanwhile, we should follow the progression of the preparation and educational phase with both an open and a skeptical mindset. We should critically look at the curriculum and continue questioning the information about the UFO phenomena which will keep coming out in the public domain. Carefully. Selectively.
We have to empower ourselves as individuals and as a collective with knowledge, discernment and courage. Using our discernment, looking at the data and at the whole situation impartially and fairly is going to be crucial in the coming months and years. That is going to be fundamental if we want to know the unfiltered truth behind the UFO phenomena. Whatever shape or form that truth may have.
In the bigger picture, and beyond blogs like this, the only thing that matters is the truth. In the bigger picture, our egos and need to be right are insignificant (and frankly, quite narcissistic).
Instead, we have to prepare ourselves and others for the truth. The truth is seldom nice, cute, or easy. The truth is often hard to hear and difficult to handle.
It is like taking an honest look at yourself, to truly examine all your flaws, insecurities, and guilt. It is not pleasant, believe me. But paradoxically, when you explore and face all the hidden and "dark" corners of your inner world, a sense of clarity, tranquillity and acceptance comes over you. It is not easy; it takes time, and it is probably a lifelong process.
So when I discuss that the truth of the UFO phenomena being difficult, I am not implying any kind of eschatology. Neither do I believe nor say that the truth of the UFO phenomena will save the world.
What I am saying is that the truth behind the UFO phenomena is highly complex. What is going on with the careful and selective disclosure process is also highly complex. Human beings are highly complex; some, perhaps most of us, are even complicated.
So, complexity is the main reason I believe the truth behind the UFO phenomena is going to be hard to digest and difficult to cope with for most in the public.
The simple reason being that, in general, we humans are not good at dealing with complexity. The human brain has to use too much energy to understand complex things, and for evolutionary reasons, the human brain wants to save as much energy as possible at any given moment. Hence, automatic thinking - prejudice, biases, stereotyping, etc.- is the dominant mode of perceiving and interpreting our surroundings.
The most important thing about the whole UFO phenomena is the truth. Let us always remember that we all have the same goal and want the same thing: the truth. The search for truth has nothing to do with individuals or egos. It is irrelevant who gets the most attention and accolades on social media.
Instead, focus on what you can control. Identify in what ways you can prepare and educate yourself and others about the truth of the UFO phenomena.
Make sure to use your discernment and be impartial, so that you perceive and interpret the information in a nuanced and accurate way. You aspire to be a competent teacher to others, do you not?
Finally, I want to remind the reader that I have been speculating and simplifying throughout the text above. I am well aware of my ignorance about the UFO phenomena, and what I believe is an ongoing, careful and selective disclosure process. I may very well be mistaken about what the NYT article of the 16th of December 2017 represents.
On the other hand, I am not claiming to be a serious researcher or investigator who has found credible information about the UFO phenomena.
However, I am seriously interested in the UFO phenomena/subject and highly concerned about getting accurate and nuanced information about the UFO issue.
I rather have the raw truth than be living in an illusion. Also, I believe that people have a right to know what kind of reality they are living in.
Take care!
Time will tell. Meanwhile, we should follow the progression of the preparation and educational phase with both an open and a skeptical mindset. We should critically look at the curriculum and continue questioning the information about the UFO phenomena which will keep coming out in the public domain. Carefully. Selectively.
Some final thoughts
In the bigger picture, and beyond blogs like this, the only thing that matters is the truth. In the bigger picture, our egos and need to be right are insignificant (and frankly, quite narcissistic).
Instead, we have to prepare ourselves and others for the truth. The truth is seldom nice, cute, or easy. The truth is often hard to hear and difficult to handle.
It is like taking an honest look at yourself, to truly examine all your flaws, insecurities, and guilt. It is not pleasant, believe me. But paradoxically, when you explore and face all the hidden and "dark" corners of your inner world, a sense of clarity, tranquillity and acceptance comes over you. It is not easy; it takes time, and it is probably a lifelong process.
So when I discuss that the truth of the UFO phenomena being difficult, I am not implying any kind of eschatology. Neither do I believe nor say that the truth of the UFO phenomena will save the world.
What I am saying is that the truth behind the UFO phenomena is highly complex. What is going on with the careful and selective disclosure process is also highly complex. Human beings are highly complex; some, perhaps most of us, are even complicated.
So, complexity is the main reason I believe the truth behind the UFO phenomena is going to be hard to digest and difficult to cope with for most in the public.
The simple reason being that, in general, we humans are not good at dealing with complexity. The human brain has to use too much energy to understand complex things, and for evolutionary reasons, the human brain wants to save as much energy as possible at any given moment. Hence, automatic thinking - prejudice, biases, stereotyping, etc.- is the dominant mode of perceiving and interpreting our surroundings.
The most important thing about the whole UFO phenomena is the truth. Let us always remember that we all have the same goal and want the same thing: the truth. The search for truth has nothing to do with individuals or egos. It is irrelevant who gets the most attention and accolades on social media.
Instead, focus on what you can control. Identify in what ways you can prepare and educate yourself and others about the truth of the UFO phenomena.
Make sure to use your discernment and be impartial, so that you perceive and interpret the information in a nuanced and accurate way. You aspire to be a competent teacher to others, do you not?
