A.D. After Disclosure: When the Government Finally Reveals the Truth About Alien Contact (46 page)

He might sit up at night with a trusted advisor, and together they may war-game the pros and the cons of his next move. They agree on a plan of action. The Attorney General will be brought in to make sure the language is clear, legal, and above misinterpretation. A single loyal executive secretary will be brought in before daylight to type up the statement. It will be released in the morning before any time for leaks or attempts to interfere.

“By Executive Order, the President of the United States releases all individuals from black-world, ET-related secrecy oaths. In the accompanying statement, the president points out that it is the contention of the Attorney General that the oaths that kept the secret all these years have been superseded by the act of Disclosure. He is now calling on the men and women who were part of the cover-up to come forward as a patriotic act of cleansing and to deliver their sworn testimony before the Truth and Reconciliation Committee. Those that do will be granted immunity from charges, so long as they tell the entire truth. He orders the FBI, the DHS and the CIA to coordinate protection for all witnesses and their families who wish to cooperate wherever they are worldwide.”

Game on.

This may strike you as a rosy scenario. After all, the Disclosure president may be as co-opted and corrupted as most of his predecessors, but it may not matter. Primal forces of people power will be unleashed, and the end result may still be that the Breakaway Group’s days will be numbered.

In terms of the global situation, no matter what the actions of the U.S. president, there will still be a power vacuum. If the U.S. Disclosure President is strong, that is to say actively involved in a struggle to reassert the power of the American people to control their own government, he will be tied up in battle at home. If he is weak, he will be damaged by the fact that his own country will be seen as the prime architect of the many decades of subterfuge.

Elsewhere, other nations will be roiling with their own issues. The political leadership of many countries—France, England, Russia, and so on—may find that they, too, were duped by the Breakaway Group which was, at its peak, one of most highly functioning global organizations ever created. Other countries may want to ignore Disclosure, but find themselves struggling with its collateral damage of economic dislocation. No one will have emerged unscathed.

We cannot forget the Others in this equation. Whether or not they reveal themselves more openly, they will remain a focus of attention. Exopolitics demands that the nearly 200 nations in the world learn how to act and react to these changed circumstances in a coherent and effective manner.

Currently, exopolitical activists accept, as an article of faith, that the one piece of enduringly good news about any public revelation and acceptance—whether these Others are benign or nefarious—is that their presence will serve to unite the people of Earth as never before. Nationalism will suffer as we see ourselves as Earthlings first, and distinct nationalities second. An international problem needs an international solution, they say. It will be necessary to establish open, international, collaboration on a full array of political, scientific, social, economic, cultural, and religious issues.

Having this degree of international cooperation will be pointless if humanity responds in an uncoordinated fashion. What if, after all, we are dealing with a real threat? Coordination will be essential. What if, even barring a dire immediate threat, we wish to transition to a new energy paradigm? In such a case, uncoordinated action can have severe and negative consequences.

Another Way to Look at It

The elephant in the room AD is none other than the United Nations. After Disclosure, the U.N. will be very active and receive much attention. Resolutions will be passed and committees formed. There will be more work than ever to consider, a shifting trail of facts, and discussions about the correct course of action. But the announcement that the Earth has visitors will not suddenly transform the United Nations into a gathering place for the brotherhood of man. Instead, the unprecedented level of stress upon it will lead to the realization that it is not up to the task at hand.

The greatest issue to split the United Nations will not be the Others and the difficult debate about what should be done. Instead, it will be a
simple definition of what the U.N. is meant to be in the changed conditions. There will be impassioned debates about how powerful the organization should be. No one will agree. Meanwhile, the problems will grow and this international gridlock will occasion despair around the globe.

Then, one of the members will act. Although the country we are about to suggest is an example only, to provide a scenario, the point is that it will be a non-traditional outreach by a country not normally associated with global leadership.

Imagine the country is Brazil. During the years of cover-up, this country had its own thriving group of UFO investigators and a military that tried to grapple with the problem. In 1957, four years before the Betty and Barney Hill case in the United States, the abduction of Antonio Villa Boas occurred there. In 1958, the Trindade Island UFO photos were taken off its coast. In 1986, as many as 20 UFOs were seen by at least six airplanes and tracked over Brazil by ground radar in a case that was widely publicized. In 1996, an alleged crash of a UFO took place there, near a small town called Varginha.

Brazil also happens to be the fifth-largest country by geographical area and population. When, in our hypothetical scenario, it invites representatives from China, Russia, and the United States to discuss the lack of coordinated response to the Others, these nations respond in the affirmative. When the four leaders emerge from the talks, they announce formal invitations to key countries to join them in Sao Paulo to continue the discussion.

The President of Brazil is suddenly the man of the hour, and his country is the place. The leaders say they are not challenging the United Nations, they are simply moving past it, looking for a fresh start, acting out of a desperate need, expressed worldwide, to stop the fighting and get some work done.

They form a group, announced in Brazil as the
Alianca planetaria externas
, or the Planetary Alliance External. The world’s media immediately shortens it to PAX, which everyone likes, because it means “peace” in Latin.

PAX begins monthly meetings in Sao Paulo. The first thing members agree on is that the purpose of their meetings is not to surrender their national sovereignty. Their constituents back home, having seen the failure at the U.N., seem to agree.

The Past Actually
Is
Prologue

Our world today is in a situation analogous to that faced by the young United States of America more than two centuries ago. The American colonists had fought for independence from the monarchy of Great Britain, and the concept of liberty was central to all political discourse. The idea of instituting a new monarchy was discarded in favor of the more radical idea of a republic, something that had only succeeded in the past on a limited, small scale, and which only once had existed over a large area: ancient Rome.

A basic problem was, how to ensure sufficient freedom for the 13 newly independent states, while keeping them strong enough to provide for self-defense. In other words, what was the balance between centralization and decentralization?

The first answer was to decentralize. This was the early United States under the Articles of Confederation. Immediately, problems arose because the young nation was already far more knitted together than people realized. The central government had almost no power; it had no president (only a Congress), and even lacked the power to tax (having to request funds from the states). Each state set its own currency and tariff policy, so that if one state instituted high tariffs, these would be negated by a neighboring state that eliminated them, which in fact happened. The situation was untenable for the long term, especially for such a large nation as the young United States. There were calls to create a system with stronger centralized powers.

Such calls were anathema to many of the patriots who had fought for independence. Why did we bother, they said, if we are to replace one king with another? Centralized, concentrated power, then as now, was fiercely distrusted. The solution was an ingenious compromise: a federalized system with checks and balances. The central government was strengthened
considerably and still answerable to the people. The states retained considerable (although less) independence of action. And finally, the piece that enabled the anti-Federalists to live with the compromise: The Bill of Rights, which codified the basic, inalienable rights that each citizen would forever possess. The new solution was not perfect (it retained the institution of slavery, for instance), but it created a structure with great flexibility and durability.

Now, in the 21st century, our world continues to move away from a system of independent nations. Corporations engulf the globe, spanning nations, answerable only to shareholder value. Today, they are like feudal barons who have divided up the world’s resources. National laws are subverted by their power, and international political structures are too weak to stop them. This is the current structure of the “New World Order.” It does not have to be this way, though. The advent of Disclosure can prompt the promotion of a federalized, global system of governance that is not under corporate domination, which in fact submits them to enforceable laws, and which also has an enforceable global “Bill of Rights.”

No system of “One World” government will work. Nationalism is still too strong and it still has its advantages. But the arrival of the Others guarantees that the status quo is also unacceptable. It demands a new vision, and a pragmatic global system that will eventually replace the faltering United Nations, just as the United Nations replaced the faltering League of Nations.

Creating a stable, flexible, and fair international system will require an exceptional degree of vision, pragmatism, ethics, dedication, persistence, and courage. We do not know if it will happen, however, we do know this: it is surely possible, and it is what should be done. For an equitable future for humanity, it must be done.

Some of the issues that ought to come up early in the deliberations of a globalized, federalized system, should be:

How to research and implement the many solutions inherent in UFO technology to the problems facing our society today, and how to ensure that these are safely managed for the greater good of all.

How to transition human society safely away from its petroleum-based global economy.
