p. 196 First Hypothesis: The Martian Conspiracy
The code name “Martians” …used by British Intelligence during WWII ...referred to the spy industry that had been created to keep the Allied command informed on the moves and intentions of the Wehrmacht.
...documented ...in Anthony Browns’ book, A Bodyguard of Lies. ...a remark made by Churchill at the Teheran Conference to Roosevelt and Stalin: “In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.”
p. 197
The work of he “Martians’ and their colleagues during the war included the manipulation of friend and foe alike to further the goals of global strategy. They were not concerned with the day-to-day operation of the war. Their only purpose was strategic deception.

The fragments in question provided the first proof of the existence of a new German secret weapon, the V2. What other weapons were at the prototype stage in the German arsenal? Could some of these have been used later, in Sweden and elsewhere, to support an even more ambitious stratagem: the simulation of an outer-space invasion, the goal of which might have been to prevent a third World War by turning the thoughts of mankind toward an extraterrestrial goal, lending credibility to the notion of an impending invasion from space? [Note: This was the plot of the original Outer Limits episode Architects of Fear starring Robert Culp as an alien/human hybrid] [Could one of those prototypes been the Bell?
...A writer named Bernard Newman actually described such a scenario in his 1948 novel The Flying Saucer. ...The same idea comes up in Leonard Lewin’s Report from Iron Mountain, an ingenious hoax purporting to be a secret report on the possibility and desirability of peace, in which “an established and recognized extraterrestrial menace” is listed among the possible “substitute institutions for consideration as replacements for the nonmilitary functions of war.”

Could someone be faking an extraterrestrial threat? The idea seems preposterous indeed. Is it less believable than the idea General George Patton commanding an imaginary Army Corps armed with inflatable tanks and cardboard barracks? … If Britain, the Unit edes , and the Soviet Union could jointly plan and carry them out such worldwide deception in the early forties, could not the same mechanisms be at work now? Only a fraction of the deception techniques has been revealed. The institutions created to carry them out are still in existence with their privileged communications channels, their hidden sources of procurement and capital, their recruiting procedures.The answer to the question, “Could such an international group fake,
use, or manipulate UFO activity?” has to be YES.
p.204 2nd Hypothesis: The Esoteric Intervention
[The overlapping of Occult or Paranormal Phenomena with UFOs and Occult or Esoteric groups pursuing research such as in Nazi Occult research.]
p.205
The basis for all “esoteric” teachings is that ordinary reality is an illusion. [See Lynn Thorndike, History of Magic and Experimental Science.]
p.206
Such a group could operate internationally, independently of local governments. It could enlist the resources of leading corporations. It could try to manipulate public opinion for its own ends. It could not control science m but it could certainly influence it. And it could produce many o the effects UFOs seems capable of manifesting. The persons controlling such a “psychotronic” technology might even have already achieved contact with other forms of consciousness, and might know the real nature of UFOs, or they might try to convince others that they do.

Control-System Hypothesis - [entire section]
We have now introduced two new elements into the study of the UFO phenomenon. The first element concerns political exploitation: we suspect strongly that one or several groups, of unknown political belief, are no influencing the “contactees” and the civilian research organizations for their own ends. The second element deals with manipulation of the phenomenon itself by fabrication of UFO reports and of related stories, including such terrorist elements as livestock mutilations.
Should we be surprised to find these result? I don’t think so. Human beings and their organization use whatever they find in their environment to further their own designs, and we can see from historical analogies that sch deliberate efforts have often been hidden behind irrational trapping. Discontinuity is the rule in times of stressful change. The UFO phenomenon is a precursor of a major discontinuity.
Discussing the two hypotheses I presented above, I have shown that neither of them fully accounted for the facts. I still feel that the UFO phenomenon represents a manifestation of a reality that transcends our current understanding of physics. It is not the phenomenon itself, but the belief it has created, which is manipulated by human groups with their own objectives. I continue to be impressed by one fact I mentioned in my earlier book Passport to Magonia: such sightings have been made in earlier times; similar effects have been described; even the UFO “occupants” appear identical to the denizens of medieval Magnoia. This suggests a reality of mind, beyond whatever technology is activating UFO energy. I continue to regard this phenomenon as a manifestation of a reality that is larger and more complex that a simple visit by interplanetary travelers: the reality of Magona.
I believe there is a system around us that transcends time ans it transcends space. I remain confident that human knowledge is capable of understanding this larger reality. I suspect that some humans have already understood it, an are showing their hand in several aspects of the UFO encounters. The system I am speaking of may well be able to locate itself in outer space, ans some of my readers well be quick in pointing out. Indeed it may, but is manifestations are not spacecraft in the ordinary “nuts and bolts” sense. The UFOs are physical manifestations that cannot be understood apart from their psychic and symbolic reality. What we see in effect here is not an alien invasion. It is a control system which acts on humans and uses human However, we still need to discover the source of this manifestation. An episode that occurred while I was writing this book opened my eyes to some new possibilities about this source.
p. 217 The Six Social Consequences [The details of each consequence can be found in the book]
It remains for us to summarize the social effects that the belief in UFOs is likely to create-whether such physical objects exist or not. We have seen six major effects throughout this investigation. …
1. The belief in UFOs widens the gap between the public and scientific institutions.
2. The contactee propaganda undermines the image of human beings as masters of their own destiny.
3. Increased attention given to UFO activity promotes the concept of political unification of the planet.
4. Contactee organizations may become the basis of a new “high demand” religion.
5. Irrational motivations based on faith are spreading hand in hand with belief in extraterrestrial intervention.
6. Contactee philosophies often include belief in higher races and in totalitarian systems that would eliminate democracy.
