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 --> 00:00:20,699
people say UFOs and to make those

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

9
00:00:20,699 --> 00:00:24,210
why even bother

10
00:00:21,660 --> 00:00:26,429
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
00:00:26,429 --> 00:00:31,050
UFOs in that case it's like asking the

13
00:00:29,368 --> 00:00:33,960
government to investigate a make-believe

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

15
00:00:33,960 --> 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 --> 00:00:45,600
might think it's pointless for many

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

20
00:00:45,600 --> 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 --> 00:01:10,380
information to suggest a cover-up now if

29
00:01:07,709 --> 00:01:13,228
you ask me there's one and only one way

30
00:01:10,379 --> 00:01:16,438
a person can say that that's by doing

31
00:01:13,228 --> 00:01:19,469
absolutely no inquiry at all so when a

32
00:01:16,438 --> 00:01:21,209
military report describing UAP lands on

33
00:01:19,469 --> 00:01:24,030
your desk or appears on your screen

34
00:01:21,209 --> 00:01:25,739
shut your eyes when a credible witness

35
00:01:24,030 --> 00:01:28,228
describes something that should be

36
00:01:25,739 --> 00:01:31,140
impossible but isn't you just cover your

37
00:01:28,228 --> 00:01:33,509
ears and whistle a merry tune now to be

38
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:35,489
fair it's hard to imagine what else the

39
00:01:33,509 --> 00:01:38,069
White House could have said can you

40
00:01:35,489 --> 00:01:40,828
imagine the reaction that might occur

41
00:01:38,069 --> 00:01:44,309
from even a hint that there is something

42
00:01:40,828 --> 00:01:46,618
to UFOs see the White House the Pentagon

43
00:01:44,310 --> 00:01:50,250
the intelligence community they cannot

44
00:01:46,618 --> 00:01:52,228
ever voluntarily acknowledge the reality

45
00:01:50,250 --> 00:01:55,140
of this persistent troubling phenomenon

46
00:01:52,228 --> 00:01:57,239
and it's troubling all right there have

47
00:01:55,140 --> 00:02:00,299
been enough confirmed military reports

48
00:01:57,239 --> 00:02:02,640
over the decades describing how unknown

49
00:02:00,299 --> 00:02:05,729
objects have been able to invade

50
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:08,580
restricted airspace with impunity easily

51
00:02:05,728 --> 00:02:10,759
evade jet interceptors disable

52
00:02:08,580 --> 00:02:13,650
electronic systems of our top aircraft

53
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:15,628
demonstrate interest in nuclear sites

54
00:02:13,650 --> 00:02:18,000
and having the ability to disable

55
00:02:15,628 --> 00:02:20,908
nuclear weapons whatever they've got

56
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,500
it's some serious capabilities maybe

57
00:02:20,908 --> 00:02:24,598
they're wonderful creatures maybe not

58
00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:27,810
but it's easy to see the reasons for

59
00:02:24,598 --> 00:02:30,060
secrecy but here's the thing government

60
00:02:27,810 --> 00:02:32,610
is one thing the people are another and

61
00:02:30,060 --> 00:02:35,640
the people that means you have a right

62
00:02:32,610 --> 00:02:37,739
to the truth governments never act in

63
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,229
the interests of ordinary people until

64
00:02:37,739 --> 00:02:42,120
ordinary people force them to that's

65
00:02:40,229 --> 00:02:42,719
always been the case that's always been

66
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,719
our job

67
00:02:42,719 --> 00:02:48,209
and by the way finding that a truth will

68
00:02:45,719 --> 00:02:50,370
not be easy not for us and not for the

69
00:02:48,209 --> 00:02:52,650
White House there has been a world of

70
00:02:50,370 --> 00:02:54,980
secrecy that has developed around UFOs

71
00:02:52,650 --> 00:02:58,319
buried behind layers and layers of

72
00:02:54,979 --> 00:02:59,939
classification it doesn't even seem that

73
00:02:58,318 --> 00:03:02,878
our highest elected officials have

74
00:02:59,939 --> 00:03:05,219
access to him the powerful senator Barry

75
00:03:02,878 --> 00:03:07,318
Goldwater was once cussed out by his

76
00:03:05,219 --> 00:03:10,739
friend general Curtis LeMay just for

77
00:03:07,318 --> 00:03:12,958
making one inquiry I once learned from a

78
00:03:10,739 --> 00:03:15,180
very high-level intelligence source that

79
00:03:12,959 --> 00:03:17,310
President Jimmy Carter was brought to

80
00:03:15,180 --> 00:03:20,189
tears over whatever it was that he was

81
00:03:17,310 --> 00:03:22,139
told even President Bill Clinton tried

82
00:03:20,189 --> 00:03:26,549
to move this issue forward but had to

83
00:03:22,139 --> 00:03:28,439
admit defeat who is in control don't you

84
00:03:26,549 --> 00:03:29,669
think you have a right to know maybe

85
00:03:28,439 --> 00:03:31,620
even a need to know

86
00:03:29,669 --> 00:03:34,260
that's why Bryce and I feel this

87
00:03:31,620 --> 00:03:36,419
petition matters government's always

88
00:03:34,259 --> 00:03:38,689
have to be reminded that the people are

89
00:03:36,419 --> 00:03:41,760
their boss not the other way around

90
00:03:38,689 --> 00:03:44,840
truth is often unpleasant truth can turn

91
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:48,090
our world upside down but ask yourself

92
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:50,598
what kind of world do you want a world

93
00:03:48,090 --> 00:03:53,340
built on lies are one in which

94
00:03:50,598 --> 00:03:56,759
government of by and for the people

95
00:03:53,340 --> 00:04:01,680
still lives and breathes still responds

96
00:03:56,759 --> 00:04:03,500
still inspires in other words a world in

97
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,689
which truth has a fighting chance

98
00:04:03,500 --> 00:04:08,818
sign the need-to-know petition we have a

99
00:04:06,689 --> 00:04:11,400
chance to make a statement to challenge

100
00:04:08,818 --> 00:04:15,229
decades of lies with the clear light of

101
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,230
truth we can do it
