MJ-12 UPDATE
|
||
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
ParaNet Alpha 09/29 -- As predicted here, Citizens Against UFO
|
||
|
|
Secrecy (CAUS) has published the most definitive expose' to date on
|
||
|
|
the mysterious MJ-12 documents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
According to CAUS, the documents are a hoax.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the September issue of the organization's journal JUST CAUSE,
|
||
|
|
editor Barry Greenwood enumerates several points which, taken as a
|
||
|
|
whole, fairly conclusively show the documents to be fraudulent. The
|
||
|
|
most impressive of these has to do with the Top Secret "Executive
|
||
|
|
Order," a document allegedly signed by then-President Harry Truman
|
||
|
|
authorizing the formation of the Majestic-12 group. The document was
|
||
|
|
listed as Attachment "A", "Executive Order #092447", in the Schedule
|
||
|
|
of Attachments to the Hillenkoetter Briefing. The number, "092447"
|
||
|
|
is not an authentic Executive Order number, but rather represents
|
||
|
|
the date the order was signed - 9/24/47. CAUS's research at the Tru-
|
||
|
|
man Library shows that no EOs were signed that day; that EO's 9891
|
||
|
|
thru 9896 all cover the period in question; that none are missing or
|
||
|
|
out of order; and that none have anything to do with MJ-12 or UFOs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other CAUS evidence includes points which have been covered by Para-
|
||
|
|
Net, Saucer Smear and CSICOP, such as the apparent fraudulence of
|
||
|
|
the Cutler to Twining memo, the irregular dating format, and the
|
||
|
|
seemingly shoddy quality of research employed by the Moore-Shandera-
|
||
|
|
Friedman team (MSF). CAUS also takes great exception to several
|
||
|
|
other, ancillary documents, released by MSF in April, such as a CIA
|
||
|
|
memo and a briefing paper on "Project Aquarius." They report that
|
||
|
|
MSF began de-emphasizing these documents over the course of the sum-
|
||
|
|
mer, especially after CAUS confronted William Moore with the evi-
|
||
|
|
dence for their fraudulence.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But the most significant portion of the CAUS newsletter (this issue
|
||
|
|
of which is devoted entirely to MJ-12) deals in a discussion of who
|
||
|
|
may be behind the concoction. ParaNet readers may remember that in a
|
||
|
|
recent issue of Saucer Smear, Supreme Commander James Moseley an-
|
||
|
|
nounced that he had a "name" that he was investigating in connection
|
||
|
|
with the Majestic-12 controversy, and that he would release it soon.
|
||
|
|
That name, supplied to him by ParaNet, was Col. Richard Doty, Spec-
|
||
|
|
ial Agent, Air Force Office of Special Investigations. CAUS editor
|
||
|
|
Greenwood agrees with Moseley's, and our, suspicions. In brief:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- TV producer Linda Howe, best known for her landmark expose' on
|
||
|
|
cattle mutilation, STRANGE HARVEST, was contacted by a government
|
||
|
|
source in 1984 to "aid in producing a documentary, essentially pro-
|
||
|
|
viding
