Clinton, UFOs, and the Single Bullet Theory

As Time Magazine and other in the “established media” reported in April 2014 former President Bill Clinton had been on the Jimmy Kimmel show and talked about his efforts to look into the UFO phenomena when he became president.

Not surprisingly, Clinton added really nothing to the many statements he has made in the past.

What he did say is that he did look in to the subject which raised a cheer from the believers saying “I told you so.” It also, however, provided hardline UFO skeptics to claim Clinton’s latest statements show conclusively that there are no ETs and the government knows nothing.

The real truth of the matter may be as simple as the statement made in the undisputed Canadian Top Secret memo where it is stated that when they asked the Americas about flying saucers, through discrete enquiries made through the Canadian Embassy in Washington in November 1950, they were told 1) Flying saucers exist 2) It is the most highly classified subject in the United States.

This documented fact would tend to indicate that Clinton would and could never violate his security clearance to say anything significant on the subject. It seems like a no-brainer. To add to this take years later, in a rumored conversation between then CIA Director George Bush and President-elect Jimmy Carter, Bush said ”Curiosity is not sufficient need to know.”

It has been known since the time Clinton was in office that he was interested. In one story attributed to Ron Pandolfi, the top scientist in the CIA who was tasked with the UFO briefing for President Clinton’s Science Director Dr. Jack Gibbons, Pandolfi reported through a friend of his,

It was known among the high CIA people, and the people who had contact with these people (Clintons) that they were on the prowl for UFOs. He (Bill) had been asking anyone who would listen to him, to tell him the secret. You know, he would get some Admiral in there, and say “By the way, tell me the UFO secret.” They would just look at him like “What planet are you from?”

Later, Roswell movie producer, Paul Davids, who father taught Clinton at Georgetown University, had the opportunity to sit with Clinton for a few minutes at an event when Hillary was running for president. He gave Clinton a copy of a Roswell book that had just been written by Don Schmitt and Tom Carey. After viewing the cover Clinton said he would read it right away as he was ‘fascinated” with the UFO subject.

What is less known than Clinton’s love for UFO stories is the fact that he was fascinated with President John F. Kennedy. This fascination was fueled when as a teenager he told his mother that he would get a picture with the President for her on his trip to Boys Nation gathering in Washington DC, and then got it.

The story is completed by Webster Hubbell, who had worked at the Rose Law firm in Little Rock with Hillary, and was a close friend of Bill’s. According to Hubbell’s 1997 book “Friend in High Places,”

Clinton had said, ‘”If I put you over at Justice, I want you to find the answers to two questions for me. One, who killed JFK? And two, are there UFOs?” Clinton was dead serious. I had looked into both, but wasn’t satisfied with the answers I was getting.

Knowing that Clinton looked into UFOs, it seemed highly likely that he probably looked into the JFK assassination. Based on a statement made by Steven Greer it seemed apparent that Clinton did not go along with the single bullet theory.

Greer tells of his encounters with a FOB (friend of Bill) that took Greer’s disclosure briefing materials to President Clinton in 1993. Greer reported that the friend came to his house and said “The president would like to do what you ask, but is afraid that if he does he will end up like Jack Kennedy.”

Bill Clinton, as a teenager, fulfilled a promise to his mother to
get a picture with his idol President John Kennedy.

Therefore when I filed my UFO FOIAs with the Clinton library I also filed for all files on the JFK assassination. Years later when the files were finally processed the Clinton Library announced that they had  over 7,000 pages on the Kennedy assassination. Many of the files however were either partly of fully  withheld.

Now in the last month the P5 Exemptions have been released after a 12 year exemption under law. (Exemption for material between President and advisors or among advisors – the idea being that if this advice to the president is not held confidentially no one will be honest with the president.)

It is good to see that some material has opened up. One file still being held VERY TIGHLY (that I even appealed and lost) was a film that was taken at the 50^th birthday of John Podesta, chief of staff and the obsessed UFO/x-files man in the Clinton White House. Bill and Hillary appear at the birthday party dressed like the famous X-files character Scully and Mulder.

In July the Clinton library released all the paperwork related to the party which would probably be birthday wishes from various people and the record of who was at the White House party. I contacted the archivist to ask if this meant the photos were now public. I was reminded that my request and appeal for the video and photos were denied and the situation had not changed.

I am sure no one will see these Podesta birthday pictures and film until after Hillary makes her run for President in 2016, and if she wins it may never be seen again.

This alas is the world of politics.
