Russia Orders Obama: Tell World About Aliens, Or We Will

I remember at the time the media reporting he was joking saying you could find out what he was talking about by watching Men in Black.

But

some say he was not refering to the US movie of that name, but rather the Russian documentary of the same name


Where Western news sources quoted Medvedev as saying “More detailed information on this topic you can get from a well-known movie called ‘Men In Black,’” his actual answer was, “You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name.”

The reason(s) for Western propaganda news outlets deliberately distorting Medvedev’s words become apparent after his shocking statement, and as evidenced in just one example of their so called reporting on this disclosure of alien life already being on our planet where the title of one such article was “Russian Prime Minister Dmitri Medvedev makes a crack about aliens, and conspiracists promptly lose their minds.”

If anyone is “losing their minds” about aliens, it must be pointed out, it is certainly not Russia, but the Vatican, which in November 2009 announced it was “preparing for extraterrestrial disclosure.”

Russia Orders Obama: Tell World About Aliens, Or We Will

Having said that the article is by Sorcha Faal....... considered by many as a BS artist

A couple of red flags in this one for me.
The video of Medvedev’s interview cuts off, so we only have Sorchas word (in regards to this clip at least) that

Western news sources quoted Medvedev as saying “More detailed information on this topic you can get from a well-known movie called ‘Men In Black,’” his actual answer was, “You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name.”

And the doco itself is a terrible source, it presents a number of known hoax's as real events.

We see "skinny bob" and the jerusalem footage in there, well and truly deconstructed and exposed examples imo
 
Alleged original statement. I dont speak russian so i cant confirm or deny


But the subtext says

He said more details could be found in Barry Sonnenfeld's "Men in Black" films.

During his 2008-2012 presidency, Medvedev showed a sense of humor slightly more subtle than Putin's sometimes brutal jokes...but he was not talking about the will smith men in black...

But to my mind if he does say Barry Sonnenfeld's "Men in Black" films, then the claim he was talking about the russian doco is flimsy
 
He says everything written on the screen, with the exception of the phrase "well known." He says "well known, chronicled documentary." He's clearly making a joke.

"Watch the documentary film (insert absurdly premised fiction movie)" is a common joke in the world. Someone asked him a stupid question. He gave a smartassed answer. Everyone starts to laugh. How does this get attention?
 
It's not usually even a subject for jokes unless it has to be mentioned at all? I suppose who initiated the interview might lead more of an answer?
 
I just mean there's not much to go on, in terms of conspiracy. The headline actually had me curious.It was disappointing.

Both sides mistranslated the interview. The mainstream mistranslated to better streamline the idea that he was makijng that joke. The video folks removed a word that weakened the arguement that he was referencing some random, ufo documentary.

For the record, if someon in that position actually ever said what the headline reads, my belief in visiting aliens would move from about 2% to about 45%. You guys had me a little excited.

That was what I understood, on the program I had heard this story being discussed, mededev was referring to a russian "documentary" that was so absurd ...uninternationally or a it may have been a parody... thus dimitri's response was supposed to be dismissive or a joke.

It sounded like the film he was referring to may be analogus (spl?) to that pseudo-documentary movie that was initially being used as the cause of the attack on the american embassy in tripoli.
 
I can confirm that Medvedev is talking about a folder given to a president when he takes office. That folder contains information about alien visitations to this planet. As far as why he's making a reference to Men in Black I have no idea. I can't say whether this is a joke or not.
 
I'm not sold either way myself.

It can be hard to tell sometimes when someone is joking

Our own PM did it recently


So i dont know if he was serious or not
 
You have to think though, that if any government with actual knowledge, chose to disclose anything, the last thing they would do was let it slip like this surely?
