TTSA Splits

 
A lot of people have asked me to comment on the split in the To the Stars Academy for Arts and Sciences. Just before Christmas, three TTSA board members suddenly announced their resignation; Luis Elizondo, Chris Mellon and Steve Justice. Source: https://silvarecord.com/2020/12/21/elizondo-mellon-justice-out-at-ttsa/. The departure of Elizondo in particular is derailing because he has been the Academy's principle media spokesman. This has been described as a "break-up", however it is not quite that bad. The TTSA will continue without those three members. Tom DeLonge still has his remaining associates, including his co-founders Jim Semivan and Hal Puthoff. Some commentators have raised concerns about the TTSA's stock prices falling, but so long as the UAP revelation momentum doesn't slow down, and it shows no signs of doing so, then I doubt that will be a problem. The Academy has not commented on the resignations and nor has anybody else. However the day before Christmas Eve, Elizondo Tweeted: "New dawn, new beginning, same friends. 2021 is shaping up to be a banner year. In the midst of shifting into 'second gear' with plenty of room for all to jump on board! Thanks to amazing #UFOTwitter and others for your continued support." That sounds very positive. He has used the phrase "second gear" a few times now and he's not defined it completely, but he has hinted that he plans to launch a new campaign with a more international flavour. Apparently James Fox is involved, so it probably includes a new documentary film or TV series. We still don't know the full reasons for Elizondo, Mellon and Justice quitting the TTSA. We may find out more over time. However when I was on the Kev Baker Show last year, we addressed the interviews Luis Elizondo did at the time and we felt that he wanted to say an awful lot more than he did and that possibly the TTSA management had been clipping his wings a bit, see: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2019/06/ben-emlyn-jones-on-kev-baker-show-48.html. With just a few more days left of 2020, it's thrilling to think what a fully-fledged Luis Elizondo might achieve in the "banner year" to come.

Ben Emlyn-Jones online at UFO's and Alternative Stuff 2

 
I will be speaking at an online meeting of the London UFO's and Alternative Stuff Meetup group ("Meetup" being an ironic part of the name at the present time of course). I will be giving a lecture on the politics of energy followed by a question and answer session. The event will be at 3 PM on Saturday, January the 16th next year. You will need to have Skype and places are limited. There is no fee. See here for details: https://www.meetup.com/UFOs-and-Alternative-Stuff-London/events/275373272/.

George Blake Dies

 
George Blake
11th November 1922 to 26th December 2020
 
The famous super spy George Blake has died. Born George Behar in the Netherlands in 1922, he moved to England after World War II and joined the intelligence agency SIS. However during his posting to Korea he witnessed the brutal war of the early 1950's and its horrors converted him to Marxism. His cover was blown in 1961 and he was imprisoned. However he broke out of jail in 1966 in one of the most notorious prison escapes in history. He then was trafficked to Russia, then the Soviet Union, where he was granted political asylum. He lived there for the rest of his life. He was never able to travel home to Britain because he would be arrested and returned to prison the moment he arrived. Along with the Cambridge spies; Kim Philby, Anthony Blunt, Guy Burgess, John Cairncross and Donald Maclean, he is the most infamous double agent in history. The reason he has come to my attention is because I made a HPANWO TV film about him, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/01/spies-of-london-part-1.html. On Boxing Day 2020 the Russian news outlet RIA Novosti announced that Blake had died. He was ninety-eight years old and, like James Randi, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/10/james-randi-dies.html, passed away from age-related conditions. President Vladmir Putin paid tribute to him, calling him "a brilliant professional of special vitality and courage" who made an "invaluable contribution to ensuring strategic parity and maintaining peace on the planet". However in this documentary Blake clearly is nervous about Putin. Blake's asylum in modern Russia was getting precarious at the time, see here in the last scene: https://www.bitchute.com/video/LjUeYtyNVzbK/. Blake's deception during the Cold War led to the exposure of many western agents operating inside the Soviet bloc. Unlike Blake, who was treated with humanity and simply locked away in prison, these agents were tortured until they gave up their information and then shot.

Happy Brexmas!

 
In this world that never seems to stop, even Boxing Day is not a respite from political development. In Brussels the negotiating teams of Britain and the European Union have agreed informally to a draft trade deal. The entire document is over two thousand pages, but I've read a summary. The good news is that the Finlandization I was afraid of has not happened. I did think it was unlikely that we would end up with a BrINO- Brexit In Name Only, far more unlikely than most other people in the Leave community; but the threat was there. Now it has gone. Britain has control of its export and import prices via duties and subsidies, the so-called "level playing field". We will leave the common market and can set up our own bilateral trade deals with other countries. We will leave the EU customs zone, so travel procedure to the EU will change; however, despite what Remoaners will tell you, it will still be possible to go on holiday and work in Europe.We will be free of the European Court of Justice. The bad news is that the biggest sticking point of all has still not been resolved; fishing. The original plan was to reduce the value of fish caught by EU boats in British waters by 80%, but this has now been reduced to 25% only. There's also a five and a half year transition period to sort it out, clearly a kicking the can down the road operation. There is also no mention of defence policy; at least it's not in the summary. Will British forces be under the European central command? If it isn't specifically stated that we are not, it must be assumed that we are. This is very dangerous because it includes our nuclear deterrent. The response from the Brexiteer community has been lukewarm approval, along with a relief that we've finally reached the end of the road. Even Nigel Farage comes across as positive, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D49W1XJTYTI. I'm concerned about the lingering obstacles within the, but we won't know for sure if my concerns are justified until the deal has been implemented and has been given a chance to work. Both the UK and EU parliaments have to vote on the deal; if they do so on time it will become law on New Year's Day. I still think we'd have been better of with the WTO, but I'm willing to give this new relationship a chance.

Happy Christmas, HPANWO Readers!

 
I'd like to wish all HPANWO readers, HPANWO TV viewers and HPANWO Radio listeners a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year. 2020 has been one of the most difficult years for us all. This is mostly down to the coronavirus. One of its many impositions is that it has virtually annihilated the conference circuit. The first... and last, live real world conference of 2020 was RAWCON in Hull, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/03/rawcon-2020.html. Seeing as my speciality is my unique form of UFO paranormal conspiracy theory conference travel vlogging, it has reduced the scope of my output, especially on HPANWO TV. I have also been shadowbanned. At first I thought this was only on YouTube, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2019/11/shadowbanned-by-youtube.html; however the level of my audience engagement has also dropped on Blogger. Seeing as Google own both platforms this is to be expected. I've noticed the same thing with Spreaker; it is a full spectrum attack. I've also had some HPANWO pages banned on Facebook, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/06/ive-been-zucked-part-2.html. In fact the only place my profile is currently expanding is on alt-tech sites. This has made it more difficult for me to find new readers, viewers and listeners. Therefore regular readers, subscriptions and social media followers have been invaluable to me. Thanks to you, I have managed to maintain HPAMWO's reach in the online world. I very much appreciate that. Merry Christmas to you all, and a happy New Year. Lots more to come in 2021!

Jamnoise72's Solstice Singing

 
I have taken part in an online live sing-a-long on the YouTube channel of Jackie Noise, aka "Jamnoise72". At 7 PM we sang You're the Voice by John Farnham, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DXXKlCkBOQ. We also discussed many other related issues. It gave us all, and everybody watching, a much-needed burst of positive energy for the winter solstice. Hopefully it will carry its positive energy far beyond. It was also the day of the Great Conjunction, see: http://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/12/the-great-conjunction.html. I felt very much cheered up and enlivened by taking part. Thanks very much to Jackie for organizing this.

John Brennan on UFO's

 
I was on the Kev Baker Show last night, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/12/ben-emlyn-jones-on-kev-baker-show-65.html, when my eponymous host announced a startling bombshell. The former chief of the US Central Intelligence Agency, John Brennan, had made a statement about UFO's. This statement is pretty much the same one people like me have been making since the 1940's and that Brennan's predecessors have been ridiculing and denying (The above is based on a quote by Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter, the first head of the CIA). Brennan began with effectively the same line as his British equivalent John Sawers, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2019/10/mi6-boss-says-aliens-exist.html, stating that in a universe of infinite size and complexity we should expect to find intelligent life out there etc. However, he goes one step further. He then attaches that premise to the AATIP/TTSA publications. He said: "I think some of the phenomena we're going to be seeing continues to be unexplained and might, in fact, be some type of phenomenon that is the result of something that we don't yet understand and that could involve some type of activity that some might say constitutes a different form of life," That is quite a long and garbled sentence; and it displays his nervousness and his awareness of the implications of it. Two other things are remarkable about that statement. Firstly, it comes straight after Brennan described the AATIP/TTSA material as: "quite eyebrow-raising." Secondly, he says the phenomena we're going to be seeing, using the future tense. When he discussed the "eyebrow-raising" US Navy footage he also said:  "You try to ensure that you have as much data as possible in terms of visuals and also different types of maybe technical collection of sensors that you have at the time." Source: https://nypost.com/2020/12/21/ex-cia-boss-john-brennan-believes-there-may-be-life-beyond-earth/. In this sense he may be referring to the telemetry for the UAP incidents; radar logs, firing solutions etc that have long been known to exist. The reason they haven't been released may not be because of the UFO context, but simply because they might reveal the capabilities of those ships, one of the US Navy's most closely guarded secrets. It is interesting this news broke just a week or so after the bizarre announcement by General Heim Eshud of the Israeli space force, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/12/israeli-space-commander-says-aliens-are.html. It is well known that the US and Israel are close allies and have been sharing intelligence and capabilities for decades. This leads me away from the possibility that the two men's outbursts coming so close to each other are just a coincidence. I've a feeling we're going to hear more of this soon. The current head of the CIA, Gina Hespel, is a Trump appointee. Is she going to say something similar in her official capacity?

A Coronavirus Love Story

 
With all the gloom and dread associated with the COVID 19 pandemic, I'm happy to present to you a different kind of story about it, one that I can guarantee will warm the cockles of you locked-down hearts. Dale McLaughlan is a young man from Irvine in North Ayrshire, Scotland who works as a roofer. He gained special permission to do a job on the Isle of Man. This island is currently in quarantine because of COVID 19 and the government has made the island off-limits to non-residents except for special circumstances. Although at first Mr Mclaughlan had that special permission, it ran out after he finished his job. However, while he was on the island he met the girl of his dreams, one who happened to live there. When his roofing job was finished and he returned home he missed her terribly. He knew he would never be allowed back onto the Isle of Man until the lockdown is over; he would be banned from boarding a ferry. Therefore he bought a jet-ski and travelled there independently. Source: https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/scottish-news/6408888/jet-ski-scotland-isle-man-dad-jailed-covid/. This is incredibly dangerous and he is lucky to be alive. He sailed from the Isle of Whithorn, on the southern coast of Dumfries and Galloway to Ramsey on the northern coast of the Isle of Man which is about twenty-seven miles. Jet-skis are a recreational craft to be used at the seaside just a few yards from the beach. They are not designed for voyages across the open sea. How did he navigate? He must have used a GPS or magnetic compass. Still, as the 10CC song goes, the things we do for love. Mr McLaughlan was jailed for four weeks for "a deliberate and intentional attempt to circumvent the Manx border restrictions, potentially putting the community at risk." If you look at the background links below you will guess that I find that an appalling injustice. The restrictions on the Isle on Man, just like everywhere else, have nothing to do with any threat of disease; they are the governments excuse to take more power and justify measures like the Great Reset. At the moment I consider myself lucky to be a single man, but I have been in love. My ex-partner, Sue Ustane, did not live on a remote island, but if I had been separated from her for months on end, but then found a way to go and visit her, even if it meant taking an enormous risk and possibly drowning; would I do it?... Without a moment's hesitation. However, I would get myself a proper boat.

No-Deal Brexit is Coming.... AAAAH!

 
Get your boxes of canned food and put them in your cellar! Load your zombie-killing gun! Check that your water purifier works!... Yes, I'm afraid so. It looks like the Brexit negotiation period is going to end in no-deal. On Friday, the Prime Minister Boris Johnson had a dinner date with Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission. The date didn't go anywhere and I don't think Boris and Ursula will be seeing each other again. The BBC has done its typical scaremongering coverage by focusing on the defence response. The Royal Navy has put four River-class coastal patrol ships on standby to protect the nation's fishing waters. The way the Beeb is reporting this, it's as if we're going to see something similar to the Cod Wars with Iceland in the '60's. They even use the very inflammatory and misleading headline: "Gun boat threat". Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-55283489. Absolute nonsense! The RN activity is just standard operating procedure as a precaution, one that was regularly done before the EU common fisheries policies ever existed. Much the same can be said about the other changes that will happen in our new relationship with the continental empire. There is no reason to fear a no-deal Brexit, as I explain in detail here: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/12/brexit-deal-or-no-deal.html. Any major problems emerging from a no-deal Brexit will probably be deliberate sabotage by government Remoaners falsely to discredit Brexit itself. There are sadly millions of people in the country who have fallen for the globalist fear porn. Hounslow London Borough Council have decided that even in this post-Brexit Britain they will still continue to fly the Gender Study Professor's Apron from their offices in the name of "internationalist" sentiments and "embracing diversity", see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX_U7q_ACB0. So, all in all, this is an excellent conclusion to the Brexit negotiations. In fact, as I said at the time, we should have skipped the whole hassle and simply gone WTO from February the 1st. We could have saved the time and effort by implementing the Bali Package straight away and then by today we would be well ahead of where we currently are... And now I suppose Ursula will be reactivating her Tinder profile.

Israeli Space Commander says Aliens are Real

 
Over the last four years the demographic of those who take UFO's and aliens seriously has shifted. It is no longer the classic nerdy outcast in an anorak and Wellingtons standing on a muddy hillside with a telescope pointing at the sky (No offence, Win Keech). It includes so-called "respectable" people like scientists, astronauts and pioneers; see background links for details. The latest one to speak out is among this hallowed new minority. Haim Eshed is a senior figure in Israel's ministry of defence and for thirty years headed the space division; yes, the USA is not the only nation which has one of those, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2019/12/space-force-established.html. The Jerusalem Post has been informed that he has said that UFO's are real and that both Israel and the United States have been dealing with them for many years. General Eshed says this contact involves a "galactic federation" with which the earth government have arranged treaties. There is a secret base on the planet Mars where humans and aliens regularly meet. This ties in with what I've discovered elsewhere, for example see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2017/07/child-slavery-on-mars.html and: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2017/07/child-slavery-on-mars.html. Apparently President Trump was on the verge of doing Disclosure when this galactic federation vetoed it because they felt the people of earth were not ready. Gen. Eshed correctly states that a few years ago he would have been labelled insane for what he has said, but the world has changed recently and this is why he is speaking out now. Source: https://www.jpost.com/omg/former-israeli-space-security-chief-says-aliens-exist-humanity-not-ready-651405. Oddly enough this page cites a source called Ynet.il, but I can't find anything about this topic on its website. This is also timely because Israel has started taking its own steps into space. Its first moon lander, Beresheet, was a failure, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2019/08/tardigrades-in-space.html, but they are working on a new mission, Beresheet 2.
 
Oddly enough I posted a short article long ago in 2010 called The Israeli Roswell, but the source link has died and I foolishly left out the details myself. If any readers know anything about this, please get in touch, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2010/12/israeli-roswell.html. What does all this mean? Will Israel become the Disclosure nation before the USA, or is this some kind of disinformation? Exactly what kind of treaty have humans and aliens agreed to? There's been a rumour circulating for a long time that alien abductions are the result of a covert treaty. The aliens get to snatch citizens and experiment on them and the earth governments let them, in exchange for secret UFO technology. I've never taken this theory seriously because aliens have been abducting people since prehistoric times and nobody has ever been able to stop them. Nobody would be able to now. In such a hypothetical treaty the human delegation wouldn't have much in the way of bargaining power to bring to the table. Something doesn't add up. Did Gen. Eshed really say all this? If so then why did YNet.il delete the interview? Is this going to lead to some kind of fake Disclosure, which I've always said is probably the most likely kind we will get, at least initially, see: http://hpanwo-bb.blogspot.com/2016/08/roswell-rising-is-here.html. Haim Eshed is writing a book about this subject so maybe we'll learn more from that. I'll be sure to keep an eye on this story and post any updates.

Utopia Two Cancelled

 
See here for essential background: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/11/utopia.html.
The second season of Utopia has been cancelled. When I heard this I was pretty surprised because, as you'll know if you've watched the first series, it ends inconclusively and on a massive cliff-hanger. There are a list of unanswered questions, such as why did Wilson betray the others? What really happened in Jessica's traumatic youth? And, most of all, will Kevin Christie and his evil cohorts get away with their dastardly plan? According to Amazon this was because of poor reception. Rotten Tomatoes gave it 51%, a fairly low rating. The Hollywood Reporter critic Inkoo Kang (real name!) called it "too hackneyed to be timely. Too grim to be escapist." I certainly agree with the second bit, it's as grim as hell; but hackneyed? Not at all. It is actually very groundbreaking and imaginative. Many other films and TV series have had bad reviews, yet their franchise continues such as the interminable Police Academy series. Leaving aside propaganda pieces, such at the latest Doctor Who, the decider for a producer and distributor is purely bums on seats. How many paying customers actually watched Utopia? Unfortunately Amazon never releases these figures. Utopia was commissioned very soon after the Channel 4 original was made, which I have never seen; but it took six years to produce due to various legal and financial problems. The creators must be very disappointed and I feel sorry for them. It is actually a Rotten Tomatoes critic who may have stumbled upon the true motive, that the viewer "may find the whole thing too timely, in a bad way." Source: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/utopia-canceled-at-amazon. That's a major understatement. Avoiding spoilers: Utopia is about a global pandemic of an influenza-like virus that is far more deadly than any other previously, but then a vaccine suddenly emerges onto the market. The vaccine has its own apocalyptic secret effect... It astonishes me that the plot for Utopia goes back a good decade. How did the creators know that the iron they would strike ten years later would be so incredibly hot? Amazon have seen fit to put up a warning message before each episode to remind viewers that the series is not based on real events; and that statement rings a bit hollow. The second season of Utopia may well have been cancelled because a few people might be afraid of what true ideas it is putting in people's head.

Will Trump Cover Up UFO's?

 
Over the last four years an unprecedented series of revelations connected to UFO's has occurred. This has built up a momentum that shows no signs of slowing down. However, according to an article in the magazine Popular Mechanics, the President of the United States during that entire period, Donald Trump, may be the biggest threat to further declassifications. The National Defence Authorization Act is an annual budget order for the armed services that has been a tradition since 1961 where it is the custom to sign its bill into law between Christmas and the New Year. This year's bill includes the funding allocation for the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, see here for details: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/08/second-nyt-ufo-article.html. President Trump has threatened to veto this year's NDAA, apparently in protest over the remaining of a number of military establishments. America has been on a Year Zero-like campaign to erase its own history on the grounds that it is "racist!" and "divisive!" See here for details: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2015/09/protect-stone-mountain.html. A number of military bases are named still after Confederate soldiers and they are poised to be renamed after those who fought on the Union side in the American Civil War; and the president doesn't approve. Source: https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/research/a34760841/trump-veto-defense-bill-ufo-secrets/. The news source linked in the article is designed to pluck the heartstrings of the viewer, highlighting that the bill includes provisions for female uniforms and caring for the children of soldiers with special needs. However, this is not President Trump's only motive for holding the NDAA as a bargaining chip. He is also using it as leverage in his drive to repeal Article 230, see: https://www.bitchute.com/video/UYwDq8SqOk4/; see here for background: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/05/its-about-bloody-time-too.html. I also doubt that President Trump intends to pull the rug out from under the national defence establishment completely and permanently; that would be political suicide. He has also shown himself to be the US head of state with the most open mind ever towards UFO's and has made some very extracurricular comments about them, for example see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/06/trump-on-roswell.html. PopMech has always had a very skeptic bent; indeed, it ran a dedicated series with the intention to debunk "9/11 conspiracy theories!". It is likely that this article is an attempt to alienate Trump from his supporters who believe in UFO's, the paranormal and government cover-ups; which appear to be a large enough contingent to be considered a viable sector of the electorate. Hopefully "tin foil hat vote" will not be fooled by this disinformation.

1984 removed from Kindle

 
Readers who use Amazon Kindle have made a disturbing complaint. Those who had novel Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell suddenly noticed that it was absent. This was caused by a complaint from the book's current copyright owners because a pirate organization had been uploading copies of the novel to their own account and selling them independently. Amazon acted immediately against this obvious copyright theft, but instead of deleting just the copies sold by the pirate company, they deleted all copies on every device in the network, including the legal ones. Source: https://io9.gizmodo.com/amazon-secretly-removes-1984-from-the-kindle-5317703. This mistake was actually a very fortuitous because it led to a revelation. It warned readers that e-books are not secure. They can be lost very easily by simply altering the database they are on. This can be done by hackers, but also by authorities. If all books are e-books then it gives ultimate distribution control by whoever administers the system. Supposed an oppressive regime decided to ban a certain book; indeed that has been done many times in history. Orwell's titles were banned in Russia right up until 1990, when the Soviet regime was on its last legs. Animal Farm was banned in the United Arab Emirates because the Islamic theocracy objects to the concept of anthropomorphic pigs. Ireland is one of the worst offenders; along with many other titles, it banned the classic by Orwell's schoolteacher Aldous Huxley, Brave New World. There are numerous other examples. Ian R Crane raised the point that the world "kindle" means "firewood"; for burning books? The thing is, with e-books you don't need a fire; all you need is to press a button. In the past, all book banning attempts failed because books were printed with good old fashioned paper and ink. Once they have sold enough copies over a wide enough area, a book becomes virtually indestructible. The censor has literally to track down every single copy ever bought, lent or sold. That is impossible. Indeed when the regimes fell or the censorship was lifted, people came out onto the streets waving the book saying: "I had one in my attic all along. I just couldn't tell anybody until now." What's more, in those circumstances the "forbidden fruit" factor kicks in and the book shoots to the top of the bestseller charts. This happened in Germany in 2016 when Mein Kampf was finally legalized, see: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/germanys-controversial-new-version-mein-kampf-now-bestseller-180961637/.
 
I do not have a portable Kindle reader. I have the app on my desktop along with the Adobe Acrobat reader, but this is purely for books I want to read which are only available via those systems. All my other books are paperbacks, plus a few hardbacks; although I don't like them as much because they are bulky and more difficult to handle. However, unless I literally burn them or rip them to shreds, I cannot delete my library. This is why my own commercial literature is only available as paperbacks. I did consider making Roswell Rising an e-book, but then changed my mind despite requests from readers. I once had my earlier work Rockall on Kindle, but then withdrew it and instead published a free second edition on Ben's Bookcase. I encourage readers to copy it and print hard copies, see: https://hpanwo-bb.blogspot.com/2009/02/rockall-chapter-1.html. If you are at all concerned by freedom-of-information then you have to understand that good old-fashioned paper book publishing is essential. I know that an e-book reader is "ever so convenient!", and there's nothing wrong with using them for, say, travel; with literature on there you just need for casual entertainment. However for books that you truly value and/or are significant, then you must back them up with paper copies.

Brexit Deal or No Deal?

 
The eleven month allotted time period for an independent Britain to negotiate its new relationship with its former colonial occupier has less than a month to run. Unlike Theresa May, whose "thousand wasted days!" risked seeing the country unable to leave the European Union at all, which was what she really wanted, the Prime Minister Boris Johnson has kept the momentum going and taken a reasonably tough position. His negotiators maintained that the UK should be able to subsidize its own industries, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/09/boris-repeats-no-deal-threat.html. The biggest sore spot in the discussions is about fishing. The British fishing industry was devastated because of the UK's membership of the EU. This was why there were so many leave voters in northeast England where the fishing industry is a major part of their culture. We will soon find out whether Boris will stand up to France's demand to drop their nets in British fisheries and face no consequences, as they used to when Britain was a member state. The French on the European Council have threatened to veto a deal that does not give Britain a BrINO (Brexit In Name Only) status when it comes to fishing. As with the original Brexit delay last year, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2019/10/boris-letters.html, all members of the Council have to agree to it. It's looking promising because the EU have recently made ludicrous compromises, such as offering the UK a quota of the EU's fish stock if they have access to our waters. Why is not easier for us to catch those same fish ourselves? They know this and it's a sign that they are caving in. Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-32810887 and: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-55191432. However, there is a big "but!". Unlike his flaccid predecessor, Boris has never ruled out simple walking away. If that happens, the World Trade Organization will step in and introduce its Bali Package under which Britain will do business with the European hegemony. The Remoaners have dubbed this "crashing out without a deal!" Those words are usually followed by squeals of terror and a mad dash for the zombie-killing guns; however in truth the Bali Package is perfectly functional. It needn't be permanent; negotiations can continue afterwards. Refusing to rule out no-deal gives the UK the leverage we need to prevent ourselves being schmoozed into a lousy deal that leaves us as a Finlandized puppet. This is still a danger we face and Boris must stand firm. Based on the current behaviour of Michel Barnier, the EU's chief negotiator, it looks like they have already heard unofficially that we are indeed heading for the WTO on New Year's Eve. This reveals how private negotiations behind the scenes might have run. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35XhJe1gg0A. We will soon know for sure.

"Crazy Conspiracies Theories!" Event

 
On my many travels I sometimes drop in on skeptic events to see what the other side are thinking, see background links below. Of course during the Scamdemic this is not possible, so public events that used to involve a real life meeting now take place online using social media. I often collaborate with Colin Woolford in these adventures so when he informed me that the Media Society was hosting such an event I was very interested in taking part. We booked our tickets and then logged into Zoom. Doing this reminded me of my recent lecture at the East Anglia UFO group, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/06/history-of-exopolitcs-webinar.html, although that was where the similarity ends. When the webinar was due to start the administrator added us to the call. Our microphones were muted at all times and we just sat and listened as the panel spoke to us... or should I say at us. The event was entitled Crazy Conspiracy Theories, a Threat to Democracy? Should the UK and US Media Respond? I have noticed over the last few years that the forces of establishment opinion have become much blunter and more narrow-minded in their framing of issues; probably because for the first time in living memory their position is facing serious challenges. With such an unequivocal title, it is obvious the input of people like Colin and me was not welcome; however, we felt it necessary to be present if only to "show the flag". See here for details: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-media-society-conspiracy-theories-tickets-127964865357#. There's not much I can say about the seventy-five minute content. The panellists went back and forth over their extremely unoriginal and ignorant suggestions for "tackling conspiracy theory and fake news". It was no different to what you hear all the time in the media these days. I was expecting to see Prof Karen Douglas there to explain the "psychological causes of conspiracy theory belief", see here for details: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2018/09/prof-karen-douglas-at-greenwich-sitp.html, but they weren't even going there.
 
There was an open chatbox and, to my delight, a few people began making posts which revealed that Colin and I were not alone among our tendency. Somebody called Rachel posted: "Just you wait. 2021 will be the year of UFO Disclosure and then you will all look like FOOLS!" I chimed in: "I hope so, Rachel, if Stephen Bassett is right." The result was that I was immediately banned from public chat! I assume Rachel was too. There was no doubt that this webinar had the foundational premise that conspiracy theories are not factually true. If you disagree with that, as I do, then this was "not the meeting for you!" Anybody like us who showed up would not be allowed actively to contribute. Interestingly, the organizer of the meeting put out a call asking for participants to email in questions beforehand. I sent in: "How many conspiracy theories have been proven true?" Needless to say it was not read out. This was a very boring and annoying event and I wish I had not got involved. I was going to do a HPANWO TV reportage on it, but there really is no point.

Utah Monolith Demolition

 
See here for essential background: http://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/11/utah-monolith-has-gone.html.
And: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/11/utah-monolith-gone.html.
It is possible that the mystery of how the Utah monolith disappeared will soon be solved. A photographer called Ross Bernards has posted on social media that they witnessed the destruction of the artefact and has even published photographs claiming to depict the action. On Friday evening Ross and a few of his friends went to visit the monolith and to begin with they were alone; but then another group approached and Ross' expedition chose to step aside so the ravine with the monolith did not become too crowded. The four men taunted Ross' group over whether or not they had photos of the object and then proceeded to push the monolith over. One of them added: "This is why you don't leave trash in the desert." echoing the BLM's statement about constructing something in a national park without planning permission. The four newcomers then took the structure apart. The men had no tools with them, but they had brought a wheelbarrow to carry the pieces in, so they obviously went to the site with the intention of destroying the monolith. What has happened to the pieces or who the four demolition crewmen were is unknown. The photograph of their work is badly lit and not very well focused or exposed, but it shows two figures beside a horizontal object that resembles the Utah monolith. One of its facets has been removed and the interior is visible. It looks hollow. It also seems to have a triangular section at both ends, not just the top. Ross' description does not mention them leaving behind one of the end pieces or building the cairn; maybe somebody else built it. Source: https://summit.news/2020/12/01/dont-leave-trash-in-the-desert-bizarre-utah-monolith-removed-for-good/. Another separate report from Saturday morning claims that there was a urine puddle there too and the words scrawled in the sand: "Bye, bitch". At the same time another object has appeared a long distance away that closely resembles the Utah monolith. It was also erected anonymously in Piatra Neamt, Romania. Unlike its American counterpart, the Romanian one is not concealed and has been prominently displayed on top of a hill. Source: https://metro.co.uk/2020/12/01/unexplained-metal-monolith-appears-in-romania-days-after-disappearing-from-utah-13680747/. Based on the photographs, I would say this monolith looks as if it is made from cardboard covered in tin foil instead of riveted metallic plates. Are we going to see a real life meme-craze of mystery monoliths all over the world now? We still have many questions left that need answering. Is Ross Bernards' story a true and accurate explanation of the demise of the Utah monolith? And who built the object in the first place, and why?

Utah Monolith GONE!

 
And here for the accompanying HPANWO TV film: http://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2020/11/utah-monolith-has-gone.html.
I came home from work today and recorded the Mind Set Podcast, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/11/the-mind-set-podcast-programme-427.html. I then went onto social media and found an urgent tag by Lisa of the Cry Freedom Show... The Utah monolith is gone. It has vanished! Sometime since the last visitors reported its presence on Friday evening, somebody went to the location with the correct tools and transportation, and they removed the structure. Nobody knows exactly when this was done, but it had to be sometime before Saturday morning because a helicopter pilot reported then that this object was gone. The latest photographs show the monolith missing, except for the triangular top section that was left behind. It was first found propped up against a small cairn. It is not known whether the cairn was assembled by the same people who removed the monolith. It is possible it was placed inside its hollow interior when it was first installed. The Instagramer "Mitzbic" posted his photos along with this text: "After travelling four hours in the car, hiking nine miles with over two thousand feet of elevation, I arrived at the Utah Monolith! You can imagine my disappointment when I saw that the aliens had come under the cloak of darkness eight hours earlier to take the Monolith home. They must have left in haste, because they left the prism behind, the most important part, the key to its mystical energy." The US Bureau of Land Management has said from the start that it would probably demolish the monolith because it had been placed there without planning permission; however they deny that they were responsible. Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-55119940. The mysteries connected to the Utah monolith never seem to go away; they just keep changing. The first question was: "Is it manmade or ET?" This then shifted to: "It's manmade, so who made it? How and why?"  and then to: "Who took it? How and why?" Whether we will ever find the answers to any of those questions remains to be seen. There are unconfirmed reports of a truck being seen in the area and tyre tracks near the popular parking place for monolith tourists. Maybe it will appear on Ebay or even at a black market auction for stolen artworks. It's sad that the Utah monolith has gone. It provided a brief moment of thrill and wonder in a very dismal and oppressive year.

World In Action on UFO's

 
One of the most successful and respected British TV documentary and current affairs series is Granada TV's World In Action. It won awards and ran from 1963 until 1998. It is best remembered for its dramatic title sequence and theme music; but in terms of its content, it was superior to any modern television news programme. In 1967 it broadcast an episode called "We Know What We Saw". Like most TV shows as old as that, the recordings of it were thought to be lost. Some are only preserved by the chance serendipity of VHS home tapers, for example: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/09/a-small-problem.html. Luckily we in the UFO community have our very own personal archivist in the shape of Miles Johnston. The Bases Project HQ has so much old audio and video footage, on all media, that it sometimes feels like the rest of the equipment and furniture is squeezed in between the shelves and boxes of UFO paranormal and conspiratorial gold. See here after the conference speech: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2019/11/bases-conference-2019.html. In this case it was Colin Woolford and the late Rod Howarth who helped with this restoration, but it is published on Miles' "Stepping Stones to Awareness" channel. There is a timecode on the footage which indicates this was not a finished broadcast copy; but rather a draft reel. It is in black-and-white, but that was probably how it was intended to be shown because ITV never introduced a colour signal until 1969. It is slightly crackly and covered in lines, but it is watchable. Miles converted it from its original video tape to a digital file and has processed it significantly to improve the quality.
See here for the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaWF5Du_zzc.
 
Watching this twenty-five minute programme was a striking experience. It was a mainstream media production, but its content is of a kind you could only find today on alternative YouTube or Bitchute channels. The professionalism and intellectual honesty in the programme is totally absent from modern TV. The show features interviews with famous UFOlogists of the era, like Dr J Allen Hynek and James MacDonald. It includes arch-debunker, and probably government agent, Dr Donald Menzel for balance; but its general attitude to the UFO phenomenon is positive. It even has time to include a hypnotherapy session; something that is completely taboo in one of today's programmes on the subject, for example see here from 49 mins: https://www.facebook.com/ben.emlynjones/videos/10157436692863239. It even films at a NICAP meeting (NICAP still operates today, see: http://www.nicap.org). Like all TV documentaries in the 60's, its style is rough and simplistic compared to its 2020's counterparts. Modern documentaries are far more technically elaborate. Some border on cinematic, like this one: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7p6z05; but, like that example, they are mostly pseudoscientific propaganda films which deliberately lie to the viewer. When World In Action showed their UFO documentary on people's TV sets, a television was a small wooden box with a twelve inch low resolution monochrome screen. There were only three channels and they closed down before midnight, but you got to see real quality programming. Today, TV screens can cover an entire wall with a HD 3D window to thousands of channels, twenty-four-seven. More money is spent on TV productions than at any other time in history. But nearly all of it is mindless deceptive gibberish. I'm not very old, but I do vaguely remember programmes like "We Know What We Saw" and I feel nostalgic. Many thanks to Miles, Colin and Rod for allowing me to be one of the first people in decades to watch a gem from UFO TV history that was almost lost forever.

Utah Monolith

 
An extraordinary discovery has been made in the desert land of southern Utah USA; and it came about from a very unlikely source. No UFOlogist or ancient mysteries enthusiast was involved. The Utah Department of Public Safety were flying a helicopter over the landscape counting sheep when they noticed something so unusual that they broke off their rather sleepy duties to land and take a closer look. The object of curiosity was a metallic polygonal solid embedded in the ground. It was ten to twelve feet in height and roughly two feet along its other sides. The UDPS team were immediately reminded of the black monolith in Arthur C Clarke's and Stanley Kubrick's 2001- a Space Odyssey; however, the 2001 monolith had a rectangular plan where this one is triangular, like the box of a Toblerone chocolate bar. It is also silvery in colour instead of black. Source: https://ksltv.com/449486/dps-crew-discovers-mysterious-monolith-from-air-in-remote-utah-wilderness/. The helicopter crew are baffled as to what it is, and quite frankly so am I. I discussed it in confused tones on The Kev Baker Show last night, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2020/11/ben-emlyn-jones-on-kev-baker-show-64.html. Assuming this thing is man-made, whoever put it there went to a lot of trouble. The object would be bulky to carry and, if it is solid metal, extremely heavy. Digging a hole in the hard dry ground and placing it properly, with the hole filled in to secure it, would be a major challenge. More than one person would have to be involved and the location is very remote; somewhere in the rocky desert lands of southern Utah. This is why the sheep counters were using a helicopter instead of a car. Somebody on Reddit attributed it to the artist John McCracken. However, this cannot be confirmed because McCracken died in 2011. There is only a speculative connection with McCracken because the structure resembles his style. What's more, if the object was made by John McCracken, or indeed any artist, why go to the effort of erecting it at a location where people cannot see it? As you can tell from the news report's images, the monolith is not only in the middle of an uninhabited desert, but it is placed at the bottom of a ravine. It can only be seen by somebody very close to the ravine; or from the air which it was in this case. It's almost as if somebody wanted it to be in the open air, but needed also to hide it. We don't know how long the monolith has been there. Seeing as it is in such a secluded spot, it might have been there a very long time. It seems that the helicopter crew were very lucky indeed to have been flying over just the right place to notice it. It does not appear to have deteriorated from exposure to the elements. I see no rust or rainwater corrosion; no sandblast erosion. This could mean it has only just been put there; or it could be something to do with the material it is made of. In India there is a famous pillar which is supposedly made of iron; but it doesn't rust, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_pillar_of_Delhi.
 
Could the Utah anomaly be made of an unusual material like the strange objects implanted in people's bodies shown in documentaries like Patient 17, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0xlPmXZMDw. Dr Irena Scott researched strange materials and I'm keen to see if she can find anything out, see: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2019/02/programme-314-podcast-irena-scott.html. Obviously a team of experts will need to visit the location and analyze the composition of the object. It might turn out to be steel, aluminium or a conventional alloy; which would make it a strange concealed man-made folly. On the other hand it might be something else; something not of this world... So far, the UDPS is keeping the exact location secret. This is not because they're involved in any kind of cover-up; it is to prevent sightseers trying to visit the object and getting lost in the desert without food and water etc. This was one of the concerns about Storm Area 51 last year, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2019/09/storm-area-51-state-of-emergency.html. Nevertheless the location will probably be leaked before long. It might also be on Google Earth, if anybody is willing to pore over the entire region in high zoom. Obviously, I hope at some point the monolith is subjected to proper public study and the solution to its weird emergence can be found.
