Shooting down UFO's? More Internut info polution.
Steve
Scrambling after UFOs and shooting at them is well documented as you can see in "Pilot Ordered To Shoot-Down UFO Over UK" and the US wanted it hush hush.
As far as Star Wars type weapons against UFO's Colman von Keviczky was the first that hinted at that, Colonel Phillip Corso, Hon. Paul Hellyer, Carol Rosin et al.
Witnesses claimed beams of light rose from the ground striking UFO during the supposed Southaven Park, NY ufo crash incident. That's in the book UFOs Over New York By Preston Dennett. There was also a UFO Hunters program on that incident.
"Project Saint and SDI both have been interpreted, though with no persuasive evidence for such a view, as possible responses to a percieved national security threat from UFOs."That's in the book:
The Definitive Guide To Unidentified Flying Objects And Related Phenomena By David RitchieThere is speculation that some Star Wars funds were diverted to other programs. i.e. SDI was just a cover.
I was present once when Dr. Edward Teller of the University of California Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory said he needed $20 million for more studies of an already completed experiment on the X-ray laser. -- "Teller's War," William J. Broad
templeoftheinfidel.com/Obituary.htmlWhen the president's science advisor George Keyworth was explaining the SDI research program, Colman pointed out with that roaring voice he had that 'star wars' was really aimed against the galactic forces and not the Soviets. The science advisor was not pleased. On another occasion he confronted his fellow Hungarian-American, Dr. Edward Teller, the inventor of the H bomb.It is established that Colman von Keviczky pushed UFO's at the UN with Secretary General U Thant. There you see him claiming SDI was going to be used against UFOs and getting into with Edward Tellar and Tellar's SDI connection. Not just something you read on the internet.
Does the US scramble after UFO's = Yes.
Does the US oder to fire at UFO's = Yes.
Does the US release cover stories following a UFO flap = Yes.
Does the US harass UFO witnesses = Yes
Does the US of have a black budget, SAPs, USAPs = Yes.
Is far fetched to suggest that all the beam reports you read emanating from UFOs that the US may be trying to use similar technology against them? SDI etc = NO.
Did the Army have an interest in weaponizing space? = Yes
Was there a secret space program under the direction of the NAVY? = Yes
www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/military/astrospies.htmlDid the USAF have a UFO crash recovery team? = Yes (4602d AISS)
Plenty of indicators there. No question we chase and shoot at UFOs, possibly ET craft trying to down and recover them.
