If only the war had lasted another six months, then Hitler would
have won ... because his scientists stood upon the very brink of
inventing flying saucers. That, at least, is the myth as it is
currently being peddled today, in books, pamphlets and online; and,
if it were true, squadrons of Luftwaffe spacecraft would certainly
have made mincemeat out of British Spitfires and American B-52s.
But, of course, it is a complete fiction. And yet the sinister myth
of Nazi UFOs is surprisingly well developed. If you listen to its
champions, escaped Nazis and their indoctrinated offspring are
simply hiding in secret Antarctic bases, inside the Hollow Earth,
somewhere upon another planet, or even within another dimension,
just waiting for the right time to strike again - and this time,
armed with saucers and in close alliance with Aryans from other
star systems, they stand poised to finish what they started. Some
even claim that Hitler and his chief henchmen did not really die in
1945, but were borne away in spirit on flying saucers. Such
theories seem insane - but do they have a hidden purpose? White
supremacists around the globe have adopted Nazi ufology to draw the
gullible into the wider orbit of Far-Right ideology; after all, if
the standard version of history is so wrong as to fail to
acknowledge that Hitler helped invent UFOs, then what else might
historians have got wrong about the Third Reich? Might the Nazis
actually have been right all along? Could the Holocaust have been a
total hoax? Once they have swallowed the first lie, a person might
easily swallow several others. The stories in this book are
bizarre: Nazi saucer-pilots fighting alongside Saddam Hussein in
the first Gulf War; alien boot-prints whose soles bear swastikas
being found in the wake of UFO-landings; the leader of America's
Nazi Silvershirts claiming to be in psychic contact with men from
other galaxies; and Allied pilots being buzzed by fiery glowing
'foo fighters' during the Second World War. They may seem harmless
at first, but they are not. Is it really the white race's destiny
to conquer the icy reaches of space under the banner of the 'Aryan
world spirit'? Perhaps not, but the conquest of their victims'
inner space, not outer space, in the name of Hitlerism is what
these latter-day Goebbels truly desire.
A compelling look at the misuse of power, lies, corruptions and
cover-upsFake news, alternative facts, outright lies, fears of
nuclear war, widespread surveillance of the population, mass
shootings, the rise of a totalitarian state and more have led
millions of us to distrust the word of government. And with good
reason, too. There are countless conspiracy theories in circulation
that suggest the world as we see it is not as it really is.
Disinformation campaigns try to tell us that up is down and right
is wrong. More and more people are beginning to realize that we are
being manipulated and lied to. We are denied access to secrets that
shouldn't be secrets. Our politicians obfuscate, deny, and outright
lie. No one knows whom to trust. The nightly news is being replaced
by carefully orchestrated propaganda. Our iPhones are monitored as
are our laptops and our landlines. As for social media, that too is
ripe for spying by men in black suits. No wonder, then, that the
last few years have seen an incredible rise in conspiracy theories
about deceptions and cover-ups. They range from the controversial
to the shocking and from the nightmarish to the downright
terrifying. And you can find all of them in the pages of Cover-Ups
& Secrets: The Complete Guide to Government Conspiracies,
Manipulations & Deceptions. From the dark agendas to restrict
our access to the Internet and even ban books to suppressing cancer
cures to ensure the pharmaceutical industry continues to reap
gigantic profits and the murder of politicians, scientists, world
leaders, and even Princess Diana in the name of national security.
Cover-Ups & Secrets reveals dozens of nefarious conspiracies,
plots, hidden agendas, and betrayals, including ... Amazon's Alexa,
the secret spy in the home NASA misdirections The classified
Pentagon program on alien life Clandestine plans for nuclear and
bacteriological warfare NSA's penetration of cell-phones, email,
Facebook, Twitter, and Skype messages Suspicious deaths The
Bilderbergers, the Illuminati, and the Bohemian Club Secrets of the
Philadelphia Experiment Reptilian Aliens and the British Royal
Family The Patriot Act and the government's monitoring of reading
habits And much, much more!!!
Since our very beginnings, human beings from all civilisations
across the globe have encountered the Others - intelligent,
self-motivated beings that are clearly not human in their origins.
This book offers the most comprehensive survey ever made of such
otherworldly visitors, from gods, angels, demons and djinns to
hobgoblins, poltergeists and ghosts to UFOs and aliens. In addition
to fully detailing the history of these encounters, the book
attempts a bold explanation (never before undertaken) of the true
nature of these beings. The book will explore the increasingly
frequent "entheogen" encounters facilitated by substances such as
dimethyltryptamine, ayahuasca, 5-Meo-DMT and LSD, as well as the
beings encountered by individuals suffering from
Alzheimer's-related Charles Bonnet Syndrome, young children's
non-corporeal companions, and the seemingly independent beings met
during lucid dreaming and near-death and out-of-body
experiences.This book continues Anthony Peake's work in developing
a completely original model of reality based upon an amalgamation
of ancient belief systems, subjective human experiences of the
extraordinary, and the latest discoveries of neurology,
neurochemistry, quantum mechanics and cosmology. This model
proposes that consciousness, far from being simply an accident of
evolution, is the actual root source of the material universe. It
suggests that at its most basic level everything that is seemingly
physical is rendered into existence by consciousness.
Evolutionary Metaphors is an exploration of the many occult,
esoteric, imaginative as well as creative speculations that have
resonated around the UFO phenomenon. Understanding the phenomena as
an archetypal challenge to our cultural limitations, the author,
David J. Moore, incorporates Colin Wilson's optimistic `new
existentialism' with the recent studies in ufology. The book
presents a spiritual and philosophical foundation for the creative
integration of our consciousness towards anomalous experience. It
is a call for what Carl Jung called `active imagination' and
Coleridge's poetic-imaginative access to the deeper streams of
consciousness - that which exists below the iceberg. By presenting
a fresh approach in the inter-disciplinary spirit, Moore offers a
vision into human existence - as well as the symbolical realities -
that aims to integrate our evolutionary minds with a new
understanding of reality.
The 24th century: humankind has become a spacefaring
civilization, colonizing the solar system and beyond. While no
alien forms of life have yet been encountered in this expansion
into space, colonists suddenly encounter machines of alien origin -
huge robots able to reproduce themselves. Called replicators by the
colonists, they seem to have but a single goal: to destroy all
organic life they come in contact with.
Since the colonial governments have no means to fight this menace
directly, they instead promise huge rewards to whoever destroys a
replicator. As a result, the frontier attracts a new kind of
adventurers, the Hunters, who work to find and destroy the
replicators. Mike Edwards, a skilled young maintenance technician
and robotics expert at a faraway outpost, will not only become one
of them - but be the very first one to unlock the secret behind the
replicators origin and mission.
The scientific and technical aspects underlying the plot - in
particular space travel, robotics and self-replicating spacecraft -
are introduced and discussed by the author in an extensive
non-technical appendix."
The two most fascinating questions about extraterrestrial life are
where it is found and what it is like. In particular, from our
Earth-based vantage point, we are keen to know where the closest
life to us is, and how similar it might be to life on our home
planet. This book deals with both of these key issues. It considers
possible homes for life, with a focus on Earth-like exoplanets. And
it examines the possibility that life elsewhere might be similar to
life here, due to the existence of parallel environments, which may
result in Darwinian selection producing parallel trees of life
between one planet and another. Understanding Life in the Universe
provides an engaging and myth-busting overview for any reader
interested in the existence and nature of extraterrestrial life,
and the realistic possibility of discovering credible evidence for
it in the near future.
