00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,309
hi I'm Richard Dolan on November 30th my

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,560
colleague Bryce is Abel and I published

3
00:00:05,309 --> 00:00:09,359
the need-to-know petition demanding that

4
00:00:07,559 --> 00:00:11,789
the White House conducted transparent

5
00:00:09,359 --> 00:00:14,879
investigation of reports of unknown

6
00:00:11,789 --> 00:00:17,669
aerial phenomena UAP or as a lot of

7
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:20,670
people say UFOs and to make those

8
00:00:17,670 --> 00:00:21,660
findings public some people might wonder

9
00:00:20,670 --> 00:00:24,210
why even bother

10
00:00:21,660 --> 00:00:26,460
when it seemed pointless and certainly

11
00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:29,368
it is if you don't believe in you ap or

12
00:00:26,460 --> 00:00:31,050
UFOs in that case it's like asking the

13
00:00:29,368 --> 00:00:34,409
government to investigate a make-believe

14
00:00:31,050 --> 00:00:36,420
phenomenon and just waste our money if

15
00:00:34,409 --> 00:00:39,539
you already know the truth why spend

16
00:00:36,420 --> 00:00:41,609
money reaffirming the obvious even some

17
00:00:39,539 --> 00:00:43,769
people who believe in the phenomenon

18
00:00:41,609 --> 00:00:45,570
might think it's pointless for many

19
00:00:43,770 --> 00:00:48,120
decades there have been researchers and

20
00:00:45,570 --> 00:00:49,950
activists who have gotten nothing other

21
00:00:48,119 --> 00:00:51,570
than silence and denial from the

22
00:00:49,950 --> 00:00:54,180
government why should it be any

23
00:00:51,570 --> 00:00:56,640
different now and actually the White

24
00:00:54,179 --> 00:00:58,500
House recently replied to a petition by

25
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,960
Stephen Bassett of paradigm research

26
00:00:58,500 --> 00:01:04,409
group and said that there is no evidence

27
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:07,710
of genuine UFOs nor any credible

28
00:01:04,409 --> 00:01:10,350
information to suggest a cover-up now if

29
00:01:07,709 --> 00:01:12,959
you ask me there's one and only one way

30
00:01:10,349 --> 00:01:16,259
a person can say that and that's by

31
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:18,989
doing absolutely no inquiry at all so

32
00:01:16,259 --> 00:01:20,728
when a military report describing UAP

33
00:01:18,989 --> 00:01:21,209
lands on your desk or appears on your

34
00:01:20,728 --> 00:01:24,239
screen

35
00:01:21,209 --> 00:01:25,739
shut your eyes when the credible witness

36
00:01:24,239 --> 00:01:28,199
describes something that should be

37
00:01:25,739 --> 00:01:31,140
impossible but isn't you just cover your

38
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:33,509
ears and whistle a merry tune now to be

39
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:35,400
fair it's hard to imagine what else the

40
00:01:33,509 --> 00:01:38,069
White House could have said can you

41
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:40,680
imagine the reaction that might occur

42
00:01:38,069 --> 00:01:44,309
from even a hint that there is something

43
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:46,618
to UFOs see the White House the Pentagon

44
00:01:44,310 --> 00:01:50,250
the intelligence community they cannot

45
00:01:46,618 --> 00:01:51,810
ever voluntarily acknowledge the reality

46
00:01:50,250 --> 00:01:55,140
of this persistent troubling phenomenon

47
00:01:51,810 --> 00:01:57,240
and it's troubling all right there have

48
00:01:55,140 --> 00:02:00,299
been enough confirmed military reports

49
00:01:57,239 --> 00:02:02,669
over the decades describing how unknown

50
00:02:00,299 --> 00:02:05,729
objects have been able to invade

51
00:02:02,670 --> 00:02:08,550
restricted airspace with impunity easily

52
00:02:05,728 --> 00:02:10,759
evade jet interceptors disable

53
00:02:08,550 --> 00:02:13,099
electronic systems of our top aircraft

54
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:15,620
demonstrate interest in nuclear

55
00:02:13,098 --> 00:02:17,988
and having the ability to disable

56
00:02:15,620 --> 00:02:20,930
nuclear weapons whatever they've got

57
00:02:17,989 --> 00:02:22,489
it's some serious capabilities maybe

58
00:02:20,930 --> 00:02:24,590
they're wonderful creatures maybe not

59
00:02:22,489 --> 00:02:27,799
but it's easy to see the reasons for

60
00:02:24,590 --> 00:02:30,079
secrecy but here's the thing government

61
00:02:27,799 --> 00:02:32,599
is one thing the people are another and

62
00:02:30,079 --> 00:02:35,659
the people that means you have a right

63
00:02:32,598 --> 00:02:37,759
to the truth governments never act in

64
00:02:35,658 --> 00:02:40,219
the interest of ordinary people until

65
00:02:37,759 --> 00:02:42,108
ordinary people force them to that's

66
00:02:40,219 --> 00:02:42,739
always been the case that's always been

67
00:02:42,109 --> 00:02:45,709
our job

68
00:02:42,739 --> 00:02:48,170
and by the way finding that a truth will

69
00:02:45,709 --> 00:02:50,359
not be easy not for us and not for the

70
00:02:48,169 --> 00:02:52,638
White House there's been a world of

71
00:02:50,359 --> 00:02:54,969
secrecy that has developed around UFOs

72
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:58,189
buried behind layers and layers of

73
00:02:54,969 --> 00:02:59,989
classification it doesn't even seem that

74
00:02:58,188 --> 00:03:02,900
our highest elected officials have

75
00:02:59,989 --> 00:03:05,209
access to him the powerful senator Barry

76
00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:07,310
Goldwater was once cussed out by his

77
00:03:05,209 --> 00:03:10,759
friend general Curtis LeMay just for

78
00:03:07,310 --> 00:03:12,949
making one inquiry I once learned from a

79
00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:15,199
very high-level intelligence source that

80
00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:17,298
President Jimmy Carter was brought to

81
00:03:15,199 --> 00:03:20,209
tears over whatever it was that he was

82
00:03:17,299 --> 00:03:22,129
told even President Bill Clinton tried

83
00:03:20,209 --> 00:03:26,539
to move this issue forward but had to

84
00:03:22,128 --> 00:03:28,489
admit defeat who is in control don't you

85
00:03:26,539 --> 00:03:29,658
think you have a right to know maybe

86
00:03:28,489 --> 00:03:31,609
even a need to know

87
00:03:29,658 --> 00:03:34,280
that's why Bryce and I feel this

88
00:03:31,609 --> 00:03:36,409
petition matters government's always

89
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,680
have to be reminded that the people are

90
00:03:36,408 --> 00:03:41,780
their boss not the other way around

91
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:44,829
truth is often unpleasant truth can turn

92
00:03:41,780 --> 00:03:48,079
our world upside down but ask yourself

93
00:03:44,829 --> 00:03:51,590
what kind of world do you want a world

94
00:03:48,079 --> 00:03:54,829
built on lies or one in which government

95
00:03:51,590 --> 00:03:59,199
of by and for the people still lives and

96
00:03:54,829 --> 00:04:02,090
breathes still responds still inspires

97
00:03:59,199 --> 00:04:03,489
in other words a world in which truth

98
00:04:02,090 --> 00:04:06,709
has a fighting chance

99
00:04:03,489 --> 00:04:08,810
sign the need-to-know petition we have a

100
00:04:06,709 --> 00:04:11,389
chance to make a statement to challenge

101
00:04:08,810 --> 00:04:15,219
decades of lies with the clear light of

102
00:04:11,389 --> 00:04:15,219
truth we can do it

103
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,220
you
