My Take On It
There
are UFOs flying over Iraq on a regular basis right now - just ask any of
the people who are manning the antiaircraft facilities and I'm sure they
will explain that they don't know what the aircraft are because they don't
have time to identify them, they just have to try and shoot them down. In
other words the UFOs are American and British forces that are working to
overturn Saddam Hussein and his regime in order to relieve that country
of all their weapons of mass destruction. Incidentally, eliminating weapons
of mass destruction - particularly those that are used against civilians
is something that I am in complete agreement with. But that's not the focus
of my take on it, tonight.
War has been a breeding ground of UFO sightings for a long time now and one item that rises, every now and again, to the top of my list of favourites, is the famed Nazi saucer of World War II. For those of you who are not familiar with the story, let me attempt to enlighten you..... Hitler and the Nazi regime of Germany invested heavily in advanced technology attempting to create the ultimate weapons and among the attempts were plans, models and even supposedly some prototypes that were developed, of flying saucer-shaped craft. The concept being to develop a craft that could hover in place and move with ultimate speed to intercept and shoot allied aircraft out of the skies. Now, supposedly, some of these craft were recovered by U.S., British and Russian forces during World War II and secreted away by them so they could learn all that they could about these secret super-weapons. Now that all sounds 'innocent' enough, except that the story doesn't stop there. When you begin to investigate the story of NAZI saucers some things come out that even the most ardent UFO enthusiast has to scratch his head and wonder what some of these people have been smoking. First, the development of this particular saucer gets linked to Hitler having captured extraterrestrial creatures and managed to get them to divulge their secrets to him about their technology. But, that's not enough yet. Even though Hitler supposedly knew all about this high technology stuff, courtesy of the alien beings, he was still losing the war and in the final closing days, his saucer forces escorted by some of new technology U-boats made their way down to Antarctica to set up a new home for the Third Reich. So, according to legend, there's a secret Nazi base in Antarctica. Now, if that story isn't enough for you, apparently Antarctica wasn't enough for the Nazis and they flew off the planet in their saucers to set up bases on both the Moon and the planet Mars. (Errr somebody want to let NASA know they weren't the first to land on the moon? Apparently the Nazis did it back in 1945) So, what's the truth about the Nazi flying saucer? Well, we all know that both Canada and the United States did some work to try and get their own flying saucers back in the 1950's. Even developing some flying prototypes, but their lack of performance basically brought about their demise as a viable project. The Nazi flying saucer may have existed and it might even have been taken away as a spoil of war by the allied armies but I believe the main value its served to the UFO community is that every now and again, it's trotted out as a piece of dis-information, by the U.S., in an effort to hold back what they truly do know about UFOs. But that's just my take on it..... |
