UFO Times - No 22 - Mar Apr 1993

Magazine Overview

Title: UFO TIMES
Issue: Number 22
Date: March/April 1993
Publisher: A BUFORA PUBLICATION

This issue of UFO Times, published by BUFORA (British UFO Research Association), delves into several intriguing and controversial topics within the UFO field. The cover prominently features "THE QUANTOCK HORROR," a case report detailing a witness's disturbing experiences following a UFO sighting. The magazine also includes a paper exploring the "Global Deception" hypothesis, which posits that UFO phenomena might be a form of sophisticated mind control. Other sections cover ongoing case reports, organizational news, and upcoming events.

Editorial

Ken Phillips, the Editor, begins by apologizing for the delay in publication but notes that the issue is a relatively quick follow-on from the previous one. He expresses hope that subsequent issues will maintain a more regular schedule. The editorial then addresses two key themes: "The Hypocritical Oath?" and "Conspiracy?"

The Hypocritical Oath?

Phillips discusses the serialization of the 'Quantock Horror' case, highlighting its common elements with other close-encounter cases: post-event trauma, dismissal by medical and psychiatric professions, and catastrophic disintegration of the witness's social, work, and family life. He argues that professions should take close-encounter reports more seriously, recognizing them as a global phenomenon. He calls for the psychiatric profession to better understand post-event trauma to provide effective treatment and counseling for 'Close-Encounter UFO Witness' individuals.

Conspiracy?

Phillips introduces papers by Mary Seal and her colleagues, who advocate for the "conspiracy school" of thought. He acknowledges that this perspective might be unpopular with UFO 'conservatives' but insists on giving it consideration. He notes an increasing number of conspiracy-related papers and books, particularly from the USA, with growing credence given to their claims, often backed by documented evidence. He remains neutral but observes the trend.

Case Report: Pelleted in Boston Part 2

This section continues the "Pelleted in Boston" case, presented as letters from M.S.S. to Gordon Creighton and Ron West. M.S.S. describes disturbing experiences, including hearing a Semitic language, potential subliminal messages in music, and encounters with "vermin" and "MIBS" (Men-in-Black).

M.S.S. details a struggle against these entities, which he believes are attempting to control or harm him. He mentions being subjected to physical assaults and distress, including being jabbed in the knee or foot. He also recounts an incident in December 1988 where he eluded a group of MIBs in Portsmouth. M.S.S. quantifies his encounters, stating he experienced sixty "MIBBINGS" involving approximately 180 people, with a significant portion being young adults. He expresses concern about the potential for these "vermin" to escalate their actions and the possibility of a future human annihilation if their influence grows unchecked.

M.S.S. also touches upon the possibility of alien interaction and the difficulty of convincing others of his experiences, noting that the "vermin" seem to play on human fears and insecurities. He expresses frustration with the lack of belief from authorities and the personal toll these experiences have taken.

Case Report: The Quantock Horror

This is a detailed report of the "Quantock Horror" case, investigated by Ken Phillips and Judith Jaafar, concerning Mr. Anthony Reginald Burfield. The report includes a biographical summary of Mr. Burfield, born August 23, 1953.

Written Account by Mr. A. Burfield

Mr. Burfield recounts an incident in May 1988 on the Quantock Hills where he observed a black, saucer-like object with bat-like wings and two decks with a dome. He took a photograph of the object as it approached and hovered for about five minutes. During this time, he felt his clothes get hot, and the ship blocked out the sun. After the encounter, he began suffering from "metal sickness," experiencing pain in his head, choking, and difficulty swallowing and eating. He describes his symptoms as severe, making it difficult to stand and causing him to feel like his head is being pressed. His wife is writing his account because he is too unwell to do so himself.

Transcript from Tape Sent by Mrs. Burfield to BUFORA Office

Mrs. Burfield corroborates her husband's account, describing the UFO as having a deep humming noise and bat-like wings. She mentions that the object was about 50 feet above her husband, who was lying on the ground to take photos. She states that his clothing seemed to burn, and his body felt like it was burning. She also saw doors opening on the ship and a person inside who put on a helmet. She expresses concern about her husband's "metal sickness" and the doctors' dismissal of his condition as mental illness. She fears for his life, stating he might not survive until Christmas if his condition doesn't improve. She mentions attempts to get medical help, including radiation tests, which were refused.

Preliminary Letters to Obtain N.H.S. Treatment for the Witness

Ken Phillips writes to Drs. Reed and Taylor on October 27, 1992, requesting a review of Mr. Burfield's case in light of UFO-related injury. He expresses disappointment that the local health authority will not provide specialist treatment. Phillips suggests that Dr. Rima Laibow in New York might be able to exert pressure. He emphasizes that the Burfields seem genuine and frightened.

Ken Phillips also writes to Dr. Rima Laibow on October 31, 1992, explaining Mr. Burfield's case and the refusal of treatment by the local health authority, who believe he is insane. Phillips requests that Dr. Laibow, as Coordinator for TREAT (Treatment and Research into Experienced Anomalous Trauma), write a letter to Mr. Burfield's GP recommending treatment. He provides the names and addresses of the involved GPs and Mr. Burfield.

Section C: Object Characteristics

Details of the observed object include: 1 object seen, black color, deep noise sound, no smell, batwing saucer shape, very clear clarity, and sunny day with no visible brightness from the object.

Section E: Other Characteristics Relating to the Observation

Witnesses experienced physical effects, including clothes feeling hot. Mr. Burfield experienced time-loss in 1974 and again during the 1988 sighting. He describes devastating physical symptoms and a period where everything went quiet during the observation. Another witness experienced time-loss for two days and had no recall.

Section E – Prevailing Weather During Observation

The atmosphere was clear, with no cloud cover. The temperature was warm, and the conditions were dry. The wind was still, and the sun was visible.

Alien Encounters or Sophisticated Mind Control Experiments?

This section features a paper by Mary Seal, which the editor introduces as highly controversial and related to "GLOBAL DECEPTION." Seal addresses the possibility that deeply held beliefs and spiritual aspirations might be the result of a sophisticated, engineered plan using unknown technology to monitor human behavior, rather than genuine extraterrestrial encounters.

Seal argues that while many people believe they have had genuine encounters with beings from outer space, these experiences might be a psychologically deceptive device. She posits that human agencies, not extraterrestrial ones, are behind the UFO phenomenon. These agencies, she believes, are afraid of an eventual human paradigm shift and have devised a plan to deceive humanity to prevent them from discovering a fundamental truth and thinking for themselves.

She suggests that individuals who believe they are special and have been targeted by extraterrestrials might be special, but not in the way they imagine. Seal's conviction is that these human agencies are actively working to prevent humanity from realizing its potential and making its own choices. The article implies that the UFO phenomenon is a tool in this massive, deliberate plan of deception.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the severe physical and psychological impacts of alleged UFO encounters on witnesses, the skepticism and misdiagnosis encountered from the medical and psychiatric professions, and the exploration of alternative hypotheses, such as conspiracy and mind control, to explain the UFO phenomenon. The editorial stance, as expressed by Ken Phillips, is one of openness to various theories, including controversial ones like the "conspiracy school," while maintaining critical faculties and encouraging further investigation and discussion within the UFO community. BUFORA's commitment to witness confidentiality and scientific research is also a prominent underlying theme.

This issue of UFO Times (Issue 11, dated March 1993) focuses on the unsettling connections between unidentified flying objects (UFOs), abduction phenomena, and covert mind-control operations by human agencies. The cover story, "UNENDING FRIGHTFULNESS," by Ken Phillips, presents a disturbing case report and explores the broader implications of psychological manipulation.

The Threat of Engineered Belief Systems

The lead article posits that intelligence agencies have developed sophisticated brain-washing techniques and belief systems, implemented through deliberately engineered means. The author argues that these efforts are designed to divert public attention, manipulate individual thought processes, and ultimately strip humans of their ability to choose and think for themselves. This is presented as a significant threat to human individuality.

History of Mind Control and Project MK-ULTRA

The magazine traces the history of mind control experiments, starting with the CIA's Project Bluebird in 1950, later renamed Artichoke, and then MK-ULTRA in 1953. It reveals that these programs, funded by both appropriated and drug-trafficking money, aimed to gain complete control of the human mind. The research encompassed hypnosis, sensory deprivation, drugs (like LSD), religious cults, psychosurgery, brain implants, ESP, and psycho-electronics. Prominent scientists were recruited for these ethically questionable experiments.

Dr. Jose Delgado and Brain Implants

Dr. Jose Delgado, a Yale University psychologist, is highlighted for his pioneering work in the 1950s on techniques to make humans respond to electrical commands, thereby achieving physical control of the mind. His research involved developing miniature depth electrodes that could receive and transmit signals, induce hallucinations, modify behavior, and create a loss of the sense of time. The article notes that intra-cerebral implants, visible on X-rays and MRI scans, are a piece of evidence cited by abduction researchers, with abductees often describing operations involving needles inserted into the brain.

The Case of Christine Arcia

Christine Arcia, 27, is mentioned as an example of a person receiving an auditory brain stem implant that allows programming of a sound processor. The article emphasizes that such devices, while existing, are not officially acknowledged by mainstream scientists, leading to misconceptions.

The 'Spector Correspondence' Case Report

This section presents a detailed case report (PHILCASE.024) investigated by Ken Phillips, involving a witness who claims to have been subjected to implantation and harassment by human agents, not extraterrestrials. The witness, a 43-year-old man, describes experiences that he believes are part of a deliberate effort to destroy his career and social life. He recounts incidents of strange noises, noxious vapors, and physical attacks, which he attributes to a couple living below him. The witness explicitly states that his story is different from typical abduction narratives, as he has never seen spaceships or had childhood abductions. Instead, he describes the insertion of a 'pellet' at gunpoint above his right eye and the feeling of his 'life-force' or 'soul' being extracted and replaced. He believes 'they' are trying to make him a 'freak' and that the 'invasion' is well underway, with 'they' being so powerful that they are not concerned about him speaking out.

Witness's Experience and Beliefs

The witness, who lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, and later Bournemouth, UK, describes persistent attention from a neighbor, including offers of drugs and orgies, which he rejected. This led to escalating harassment, including noxious vapors and the neighbor setting a dog on him. He eventually fled to Wales. He believes that 'they' are monitoring him and have something 'special' for him. He has come to realize that this is a UFO phenomenon, but not in the conventional sense of alien visitors. He describes 'they' as 'invaders' and 'aliens' who have shown him 'clones' and pictures, sometimes in 3D. He also mentions being subjected to interrogation of his subconscious and experiencing 'astral' trips against his will. He expresses a desire to help others avoid similar suffering and financial expenditure.

Implants and 'Pellet' Insertion

The witness underwent four brain scans, but the pellet was not visible. He mentions that 'Magnetic Image Resonators' might show something, but he was advised against removal. He believes 'they' might allow the 'spot' to show up but it would be meaningless to doctors. He describes being made to lie flat on his back before 'they' extract him from his body, often at night. He also details the insertion of the pellet into his eye, which he experienced as painless but recognized from previous 'pelleting' experiences. He notes that 'they' have stolen multiple pairs of glasses, possibly to indicate the 'pelleting' had occurred.

The Nature of the 'Invaders'

The witness describes 'they' as having a variety of forms and behaviors, sometimes appearing as 'human beings' or 'creatures.' He believes 'they' have extracted the 'life-force' or 'soul' from millions of human beings and substituted their own. He feels 'they' are contemptuous of religion and are offering him a 'better version' of his body and a 'long life.' He rejects these offers, stating, "there is nothing, I don't want anything from you, you know." He expresses hatred for 'these bastards' and acknowledges that 'they' can be both funny and hurtful, attempting to ingratiate themselves.

Threats and Psychological Warfare

The witness recounts threats made against his mother, linking them to a person named Sxxxxxa Pxxxxxs. He believes 'they' are using psychological warfare, including threats and physical harm, to control him and others. He mentions that 'they' have hurt him badly and that the only time he considered suicide was when 'they' inflicted pain severe enough to make him want to die.

Bruce Lee and 'Communion'

The witness references Bruce Lee, an editor at 'Arrow Books,' who apparently encountered 'creatures' while reviewing Whitley Strieber's book 'Communion.' This is presented as further evidence of the existence of these entities and their interactions with humans.

Directed Energy Weapons and Mind Control Technology

Another section of the magazine explores the history and implications of mind control techniques and experiments. It highlights the work of Dr. Jose Delgado in the 1950s, whose research on influencing the human brain through electrical stimulation was groundbreaking. The article emphasizes that the technology available today, after over 40 years of secret research, must be far more advanced, enabling remote physical and total control of the human mind.

Swedish Mind Control Experiments

A 1990 research paper from Stockholm is cited, detailing how doctors in Sweden have allegedly used patients for long-lasting experiments involving brain transmitters. This is presented as proof of grave crimes against humanity and a violation of human rights.

The Role of Technology

The article questions why society has not responded to these issues and why UFO researchers have largely ignored this evidence. It suggests that the government may be promoting the idea of extraterrestrial visitations to distract from the reality of advanced human technology, including directed-energy targeting, holographic projections, and real abductions, which can create illusions of extraterrestrial experiences.

Ministry of Defence Publications

British Ministry of Defence publications, specifically the 'British Defence Equipment Catalogue' from 1983 and 1987, are mentioned as confirming the existence of Radio Frequency Weapons, including Pulse Generators. This suggests that such technologies are part of official military arsenals.

Project MONARCH

Reference is made to an ongoing experiment called 'MONARCH,' allegedly perpetrated by the CIA and DARPA, which uses these weapons for inducing schizophrenia and personality changes in targeted individuals, with the aim of creating riot situations as part of a destabilization program.

UFO Sightings and Phenomena

Case Report: Immense Object Over Bierset

This report details an observation on November 29, 1989, by a witness in Bierset, Belgium. While driving, he perceived a stationary, immense object at low altitude, described as a lozenge shape, larger than an AWAC aircraft. The object displayed flashing lights of red, green, and white, and emitted a soft sound resembling an electric motor. The surface of the object was described as dark metal with a slightly sunken center.

Case Report: New Year at Manuy St-Jean

On January 1, 1990, near Manuy St-Jean, Belgium, witnesses observed a luminous, opaque, egg-shaped phenomenon rotating in a wide loop. The phenomenon manifested for about half an hour without sound. Investigators visited the site but the object had already disappeared. The witnesses, mostly young people, were adamant that it was not a laser beam from a discotheque, especially given the cloud base altitude and wind conditions.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of UFO Times strongly suggests that many phenomena attributed to extraterrestrials, particularly abductions and sightings, may in fact be the result of advanced human technology and covert psychological operations. The magazine emphasizes the potential for mind control through various means, including directed energy weapons and implants, and questions the motives behind the government's apparent legitimization of certain UFO narratives. The editorial stance appears to be one of critical inquiry, urging readers to consider the possibility of human-engineered deception and the profound implications for personal freedom and identity.

Title: UFO Times
Issue Date: March 1993
Publisher: BUFORA
Country: United Kingdom

This issue of UFO Times delves into various UFO phenomena and related activities, featuring detailed accounts of sightings, research, and organizations within the ufology community.

Observations in the Region of Cordes (Tournai): Electromagnetic Interference

This section by P. Vidal details three distinct observations by a game keeper in the isolated region of Cordes (Tournai), Belgium. The witness, who is also a correspondent for the Royal Institute of Meteorology (IRM), reported unusual events.

The first observation, around April or May 1990, involved a pinkish-red luminous ball, approximately 1.5 meters in diameter, which elongated into a spheroid shape and moved horizontally over trees before disappearing. The witness estimated its speed at 10-20 km/h.

The second observation, occurring at 02:25, was more startling. While the witness was in his car, the radio, CB, and dashboard lights suddenly went off, plunging him into darkness. As he attempted to restart the engine, an intense, blinding glow enveloped the vehicle. The light subsided after a few seconds, and simultaneously, the car's ignition, radio, and dashboard lights returned to normal. The witness mentioned that colleagues on duty had experienced a similar event, and there were no reports of lightning discharges that evening.

The third observation, on the night of November 4/5, 1990, involved witnessing a luminous mass descending slowly towards a grove of trees. The object's splendor intensified as it approached, and it stabilized above the grove before slowly moving towards the village of Forest, where the witness lost sight of it.

Close Encounter Over the Ring (Motorway) of Brussels

Authored by Michel Rozencwajg, this article recounts a significant UFO sighting that occurred on Sunday, December 9th, 1990, around 21:30, near Brussels.

Mme. Cortvriendt and her husband were driving towards Rhode Saint-Genese when Mme. Cortvriendt perceived a luminous triangle to her right. Through the car's window, she then saw a gigantic, circular plate hovering over trees, its circumference adorned with bright white lights resembling diamonds. The object also featured four brass-coloured segments arranged in a cross shape, from which white fumes escaped. The witness was particularly struck by the large under-belly of the triangular object, which was flying at an estimated altitude of 50 meters. The car continued on the motorway, and the object was last seen heading towards Zaventem.

Mme. Cortvriendt was deeply affected by the experience, creating a detailed sketch of the object and confessing that the encounter occupied her thoughts constantly, leading to disturbed sleep. The author notes that such profound reactions are common among witnesses of close encounters.

When Reality Overtakes Science-Fiction

This section, also by Michel Rozencwajg, presents a close encounter that is described as one of the most precise testimonies received. The account is correlated with other less precise testimonies, suggesting an agreement on important parameters and aligning with the 'visitor hypothesis'.

On January 6th, 1991, between 18:00 and 18:30, two groups of witnesses on the E411 motorway reported a plate-shaped object with numerous luminous sources flying at very low altitude. One family reported a rectangular object surmounted by a cupola.

At 18:30, a second family near Bouge reported a similar event. Mr. Hardy, a military veteran, estimated the distances of three halogen-type lights that formed part of a hovering vessel over a quarry. He described the object as less than 80 meters long and 10-15 meters high, with a dark grey, bulged under-belly and upper part, and approximately 15 white portholes. The rear end had fins. Mr. Hardy observed the object for 2-3 minutes, estimating its height at 90 meters and distance at 200 meters, using a pylon as a reference. When he turned on his headlights, the object moved linearly and uniformly towards Hannut. The author suggests that due to the heavy traffic at that time and location, many other people likely witnessed this event.

Obituary: Aimé Michel

This section commemorates the death of Aimé Michel, a significant figure in ufology, in December 1992 at the age of 73. His interest in UFOs began with the 'ghost-rockets' phenomenon, leading to his first book, 'The Truth About Flying Saucers' in 1954. Michel was known for his extensive reports on French UFO cases and, notably, for developing the 'orthoteny' theory, which posits that UFO sightings can be linked along straight lines. This theory was first detailed in his book 'Flying Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery'.

His influence in Britain was amplified by his friendship with Charles Bowen, editor of 'Flying Saucer Review'. Michel also published speculative pieces on intelligence and communication. He had a background in music and sound theory and was an expert on animal communication. The article notes that Michel had retired from ufology years prior, believing UFOs were beyond human comprehension. BUFORA LTD. extends condolences to his family and friends.

Ark Soundwaves Presents: Messengers of Destiny & Undeniable Evidence

This section promotes two video productions from Ark Soundwaves.

Messengers of Destiny: This video, released in July 1991, coincides with a total solar eclipse and features footage of a silvery disc-shaped object filmed by at least 17 people in Mexico City. It is presented as the first in a series of over 40 videos and explores ancient Mayan prophecies related to UFO activity. An international team of investigators tracked sightings to Mount Popocatepetl, a volcano thought to be dormant but showing signs of awakening.

Undeniable Evidence: This video, also from July 1991, focuses on the crop circle phenomenon. It includes in-depth interviews with researcher Colin Andrews, who discusses the evolution of crop circles into elaborate pictograms and shares his personal insights. The video also features perspectives from landowners and farm workers, and presents research into the crystalline structure of plants and the sounds produced in crop formations. The documentary is described as visually stunning and informative, highlighting Colin Andrews' decade of research.
