UPDATE on October 16, 2017: After viewing the eye-opening documentary “Unacknowledged” by Dr. Steven Greer, I’ve increased my understanding and changed my stance on the idea of “first contact” that’s being pushed by the status quo. It’s now apparent to me that many elements of the status quo are actively seeking to spread fear and disinformation about first contact, hoping to terrorize everyone into believing that we must go to war with whatever “aliens” might contact human civilization.

This militarized, aggressive posturing, I now realize, is part of a contrived narrative being pushed by the military industrial complex, Hollywood and other disinformation sources who are deliberately seeking to militarize the very idea of “first contact” for their own power and profiteering. For a long time, I believed that narrative almost by default, mostly due to the fact that I wasn’t steeped in this subject matter. But after interviewing Dr. Greer and viewing his well documented film, it is apparent to me that we are all being “played” by an elaborate, extremely well-funded and highly sophisticated disinformation campaign that seeks to exploit the idea of “first contact” for destructive purposes that may ultimately bring great harm to humanity.

For this reason, I have decided to pull my original video and article that discussed the “hostile” narrative of first contact, as warned by Stephen Hawking and others, and I have retracted the content of this article as well. For those in the research community who have followed this subject matter for many years, please forgive my earlier interpretation of the topic, and understand that my primary motivation in all things is to get to the real truth and report that truth to the best of my knowledge. Thanks to Dr. Greer, my knowledge has recently been significantly enhanced. Although this is not my topic of focus, the new film by Dr. Greer and several intriguing talks of his on YouTube brought me to this topic for further exploration. Many of our readers find this intriguing as well, so I hope to conduct other interviews from time to time.

I’m interested in learning more on all this, and we are also seeking contributing writers who wish to write for UFOs.news and Space.news, if you know people who are interested. Thank you for bringing all this to our attention, and if there’s anything else we get wrong on this topic, please reach out and let us know. As you are aware, there’s so much deliberate disinformation in this realm, it’s extremely difficult to know who is telling the truth. All I can say with absolute certainty is that we try to tell the truth at all times. Alas, with subjects like this, there is often a learning curve involved.

Thank you,  – Mike
