-Caveat Lector- John, Maybe you should read this one first! Sorry to have said Vallée was a CIA agent, but from here and what I read since months now, the CIA has its paws, fingers and nails everywhere at all times anyway, so it might not be indirectly too far off! Let it be known also that I don't care to fan an argument, but try to find the truth. Light on Views on such important subjects because so involved with our direct future ought to be made, IMHO. I live 50 miles from France, in French speaking Belgium and know first hand what kind of politics and regime is there now, and what they're heading for: IMO, not far from an in between communist/fascist state which of course is one and the same for the daily lives of its citizenry, (Tony Blair is doing the same, mind you! just ways and means are different) I'd say since the US has been kicked out by The General and since then France is NOT part of NATO, it implies a lot of duplicate research done in the US since WWII.(i.e. the CERN in Geneva has built the first particules accelerator with a majority of French scientists and fundings) And considering the French influence in the making of the EU it is absolutely certain that the CIA has many spearheads in that country and is VERY active indeed. And surely through NGO (see Kosovo) Cui bono, indeed: who is really profiting from the debunking of these projects? I'd say, very subtly, the ones that are in control, and using for European (crowds) control, the post accelerator technological developments in Geneva. Is HAARP so far off from Montauk?

I refuse to be suckered into replying to disinformation agents in addition to con men That path leads invariably to a perpetual quicksand, opposing professional mindfuck artists, inexhaustible in output-and very well funded by "someone." >> On re-reading what I've written, I offer my apologies to "HawkEye." Although, as stated, I give him no credibility-in return, I invite him to give ME no credibility, as is his right-I did not mean to suggest that he, personally, was WITTINGLY a disformation agent-only that some of his SOURCES certainly appear to be, IMHO. I've asked Vallee (with whom I'm in touch) to respond to certain smears on him in the past but he's demurred, saying only that it's a waste of time. I understand that completely. It just isn't worth the time for scientific minds to argue at great length against the existence of the unreal, or to defend the facts against those whose judgment is faulty, or purposefullly skewed. If I were to go back to the primary sources that get endlessly rehashed by the various promoters of the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk thing, in order to refute them, I'd have to spend months on the task-and I'd end up summarizing all that research in a book no one would read anyway, because nothing is more unpopular than the truth, and publishers, with their eye on sensationalism, will publish Von Daniken and Sitchin but not exposes of Von Daniken and Sitchin. There's a tabloid-reading sucker born every minute, but there's no profit to be made in writing books telling them they're suckers. "NewsHawk" is welcome to post whatever he believes, whether *I* pooh-pooh it or not. Das GOAT (without the benefit of "Inc") will give his usual opinions, a bit sharp-tongued if in a bad mood (and nonsense such as Sitchin's and Bielek's put me in a bad mood) -- but what REALLY ticks me off is a flame war and side-taking developing from a major difference in opinion and/or belief, stated bluntly as, alas, I've done here. To head off any such waste of everyone's time, I herewith apologize to NewsHawk personally for how I categorize his sources and the credibility thereof. Let readers judge as they may. Mine is just one point of view. "NewsHawk" has just as much right to his OWN point of view. Having stated my opinion, I do not intend to engage in any lengthy arguments. If "NewsHawk" replies that MY credibility in HIS eyes is likewise diminished by whatever beliefs *I* promote, he's entitled to that opinion. Let our SOURCES of INFORMATION be the topic of discussion, if merited, rather than the personalities holding the opposing positions based on them. MY error, mea culpa, for incivility, too much "ad hominem," in response to Vallee being labelled a "CIA agent." Vallee has ENEMIES in the CIA. If anyone called ME a "CIA agent," I'd safely assume they were out to SILENCE me, using one of the classic strategies of disinformation agents working for -- guess who? Cui bono: Who profits by disputing Vallee's conclusion in "Messengers of Deception"? DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========= CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
