UFO DISCLOSURE: ARE "DUMBED-DOWN" APPROACHES NEEDED FOR FUTURE WHITE
HOUSE UFO PETITIONS?! / WILL ADDRESSING THE LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR --
POLITICIANS WHO ARE TERRITORIAL WHEN KEEPING THEIR OWN SECRETS -- REALLY
WORK BETTER?! –

Petitions to the White House asking for the release of more information
about unidentified flying objects (UFOs) have stirred up controversy,
curiosity and hope for improved public understanding about the UFO
phenomena.
Some observers seem to think the petitions are dumb, especially if they
associate UFOs with some kinds of intelligent beings from elsewhere.
Another concern is that asking for the truth from politicians is often
not successful, no matter what the topic may be.
Additionally, the high classification and secrecy about the subject
could be related to legitimate national security and public safety
issues. In that case, the situation could be quite sensitive and
complex.
Yet, there may be a view that dumbed-down tactics and strategies are
needed to make progress on learning more about what is going on behind
the scenes with UFOs.
But first, some background about the online petitions: The
newly-launched White House petition program called "We the People"
allows citizens to create online petitions on the White House website
and gather signatures. The petitions cover a broad range of topics.
Previously, if 5,000 signatures were gathered in a certain length of
time, the White House would give a formal, official response. Now,
25,000 signatures are required within a narrow time frame.
People and groups curious about UFOs launched such petitions to try to
get a response from government officials, or at least get the topic on
the radar of the pubic, the news media, elected officials, the defense
and intelligence communities, and the scientific community.
SOMETHING FLYING AROUND
The Paradigm Research Group created one petition, gathered the 5,000
signatures and received a response from the White House that seemed
inadequate and inaccurate. Now, the same group, headed by Stephen
Bassett, is following up with a second petition approaching the subject
from a different angle.

A third petition trying to get an intelligent response from the White
House was launched by historian and researcher Richard Dolan and
TV/movie writer and producer Bryce Zabel. They are also taking a certain
approach in how they worded their petition. For more information, go to
Dolan and Zabel's Web site AfterDisclosure.com.
Dolan and Zabel recently co-authored the book "A.D. After Disclosure" on
UFO-related topics. Zabel has been involved in other media projects
related to this subject.

One main motivation for these petitions and other efforts seems to be
the concern that more understanding about UFOs should be available to,
and acquired by the public. Greater understanding would include insight
about what various UFOs might be and what impact they have on us.
Unusual objects have been seen and reported over the last few decades,
as well as in centuries past. Some objects seem to be hard-shelled craft
of some kind. They are sometimes disc-shaped, V-shaped or cigar-shaped.
The can hover silently, cruise slowly or zip away in the blink of an
eye. They have been seen at high and low altitudes as well as on the
ground.
Other odd things in the sky appear more like lights or energy of some
kind, not necessarily a hard-shelled craft.
Military personnel and pilots, peace officers and thousands of reliable
witnesses have seen these kinds of phenomena. High-ranking U.S. and
international military and defense officials have, over the decades,
stated that these objects are real.
There have been indications that international governments and
militaries have long investigated these objects which intrude on
nations' airspace and sometimes seem to pose a risk to air-traffic
safety, among other concerns.
Based on documents and other information-gathering, many qualified
researchers have concluded that much has been learned about UFOs and the
subject is generally handled as a top-secret situation.
Research, counterintelligence measures, scientific projects and other
activities since the World War II era may have discovered significant
amounts of information and insight about UFOs, some researchers
indicate.
As a result, many people, including those authoring the White House
petitions on the subject, would like to get more information.
AN INTELLIGENT PUBLIC
Challenges facing the petition coordinators include those related to the
White House petition process.
The White House website has reportedly experienced glitches or
difficulties for petition-signers. Getting 25,000 signatures in a short
time frame may prove tough to accomplish.
Other difficulties include the complicated and mysterious nature of the
UFO phenomena itself and the security surrounding related defense and
intelligence activities on UFOs.
Ridicule of people interested in the subject, or even those who have
witnessed such objects, has long discouraged the conversation. And
ridicule is still a factor in play by some news commentators, a few
scientific writers and even UFO researchers themselves.
And yet another element to consider is that the UFO topic may not simply
about one type of visitors from another planet. It could be much more
complex and involve many factors that could be truly mind-boggling.
Because of this, it has been theorized that information available to the
public about the situation is probably best handled in coordinated,
careful and safe ways.
In addition, it may be better if people become informed on this topic by
learning about it themselves. This "grassroots-up" awareness may be
better than "top-down" information from U.S. government officials.
Will the petitions make progress in raising awareness about the UFO
phenomena? Undoubtedly they will to one degree or another. Will the
25,000 signatures be attained? It's possible but could be a challenge.
Will the White House team come up with a better reply than their
response to the first petition? We can always hope so.
It may be interesting to see how it all plays out.
But one thing seems probable, the American people and many people
internationally may not want dumbed-down approaches or answers about
UFOs or the other important more-conventional issues of the day.
And, interestingly, the UFO situation may have direct connections with
the many other current developments and challenges the human race faces
on Earth today.
