Back to Exopolitics

Dear readers

Well, it's a perfect Autumn day here in Adelaide. Partly cloudy skies and 22 degrees centigrade maximum. I'm back looking at more material dealing with Exopolitics, in my bid to understand the origins, players and detail of this topic.

One of the individuals mentioned on the www.exopolitics.org website was Ed Komarek, who along with Mike Jamieson ran "Operation Right To Know" (ORTK) in the USA, between 1992-1995.

ORTK was a political activist group (click here to read some of their Newsletters.)

Ed Komarek has published a blog for several years now (click here to go there.)

The blog's home page reads "Exopolitics is based upon the understanding that earth is being visited by many advanced extraterrestrial races with diverse ethics, motives and agendas.The dynamics of the interactions between ET races and this interaction with earth humanity is to be explored on this site."

Ed's "About me" area includes "He was involved in exopolitics long before the word Exopolitics was coined by Afred Webre..." Ed lives in the USA and is now aged 61.

You can browse the blog articles by title and he also has a free e-book available at: http://authors.exopaedia.org/edkomarek which gathers together his earlier articles.

Recent articles on the blog include:

(1) "Brazil UFO/ET disclosure" -about the opening up of official Brazilian government UFO files.

(2) "Intel product for Policymakers" which includes "I think the four major UFO/ET issues are: The overpopulation driven ELE (Extinction Level Event), UFO/ET disclosure and how to pay for it, International Security Issues relating to trade with extraterrestrial races, and consciousness issues. Some of the secondary issues are: Issues dealing with the secret space fleet's atomic reactors, and Solar Warden's general effect on global security..."

A 30 October 2009 post "Is disclosure imminent?" states "I am aware of six different civilian-government high level disclosure efforts lobbying for UFO/ET disclosure..." The list is:

1. Steven Greer's Disclosure Project.
2. Clay and Shawn Pickering's Ad Hock Military UFO Working Group.
3. Steven Bassett's Paradigm Research Group.
4. Dan Smith's CIA R & D Disclosure Operation.
5. Gordon Novel's Project RAM Disclosure.
6. Ed Komarek's source "...a person that claims to have close ties to a member of Congress well informed on UFO/ET."

Remote viewing and exopolitics

Dear readers

I've spent a bit more time in trying to find out the origins of where remote viewers formed the opinion that we live in a "populated" universe.

I found a reference, back in 1986, to Ed Dames, a remote viewer in the US Government's official remote viewing program. "The "most important thing" he was looking for was tied into his fantasies about a "Supreme Galactic Council" of aliens." (Source: Smith, Paul H. "Reading the Enemy's Mind." 2005. Tom Doherty Associates Book. New York. ISBN 0-312-87515-0 page 308.)

Later, one of Dames' students, Courtney Brown, wrote about his 1996 book "Cosmic Voyage" "Using SRV, Brown suggested the existence of a distant galactic federation of extraterrestrial civilizations, which humans may one day be fortunate enough to join in." (Source: http://courneybroan.com/publications/CosmicVoyageBy CourtneyBrown.pdf.)

Are these the origins of views on a populated universe? (See previous posts on Exopolitics.)

Exopolitics 4

Dear readers

I have so far written about Michael E Salla and Stephen Bassett. The third main person in the Exopolitics movement in the USA is Alfred Lambremont Webre (born 24 May 1942.)

To find out about Webre I went to (1) http://www.exopolitics.com; (2) http://www.peaceinspace.net and (3) http://www.exopliticsradio.com

Alfred Webre was a graduate of Yale University and Yale Law School in International Law. He taught in the Economics Department at Yale, and also at the University of Texas (website 1.)

"As Senior Policy Analyst in 1977 at the Center for the School of Social Policy at Stanford Research Institute...Alfred Webre was Principal Investigator for a proposed civilian scientific study of extraterrestrial communication between the terrestrial human culture and that of possible intelligent non-terrestrial civilizations. The proposed study was presented to and developed with interested White House staff of the Domestic Policy staff of President Jimmy Carter during the period from May 1977 until the fall of 1977 when it was abruptly terminated." (2)

In the year 2000, Webre coined and used the term "Exopolitics" when he wrote a 22,000 word ebook "Exopolitics: Towards a Decade of Contact." This was later expanded and published as a book "Exopolitics:Politics, Government and the Law in the Universe." (hht://www.exopolitics.org)

The site (1) introduces Webre as "...an author, futurist, international lawyer, peace advocate, environmental activist, space activist, and radio talk show host." The site states that Webre is:

* International Director of the Institute for Cooperation in Space
* On the board of the Exopolitics Institute
* Chairman of MARS, Mars Anomaly Research Society
* On the board of the New Energy Movement
* Co-host of "The Monday Brownbagger"-Vancouver radio show on CFRO 102.7FM
* Host of Exopolitics Radio

The site contains items relating to Mars exploration by NASA etc; the coming 2010 cataclysm; secret technologies; directed energy weapons; 9/11; and a secret DARPA time travel program.

Site (3) -Exopolitics Radio- shows Alfred Webre as host. On the site is the following. "Exopolitics turns the dominant view of our Universe upside down. It reveals that we live on an isolated planet in the midst of a populated, evolving, and highly organised inter-planetary, inter-galactic, and multi-dimensional Universe society. It explains why Earth seems to have been quarantined for eons from a more evolved Universe society."

Exopolitics Radio has featured such guests as:

* Jim Sparks -author of "The Keepers." This book "...documents Sparks' unique recall of an Extraterrestrial civilization's human genetic-farming and educational outreach..."

* Laura Magdelene Eisenhower who tells of someone trying to recruit her for a secret human survival colony on Mars, in 2006

* Joseph Montaldo -International Director of the International Community for Abduction Research who believes "...there may be as many as 1 billion humans...who have been abducted..."

Site (2) peaceinspace describes "The Star Dreams Initiative" (SDI) whose International Director is Alfred Webre. "The Star Dreams Initiative (SDI) will advance existing knowledge gained through the modality of remote viewing...Remote viewing-derived data suggests that an organised spiritual galactic society exists..."

Exopolitics 3

Dear readers

I am continuing my reading on the subject of "Exopolitics." As I mentioned in previous posts, Stephen Bassett will be in Australia speaking at the "Nexus" conference, so I thought he should be my next piece of research.

I went to http://www.paradigmresearch group.org which is Bassett's main website (click here).

I found there, that Stephen Bassett spent 15 years, between 1980-1995, in the field of business development and consulting. He has a degree in physics.

In 1995 he spent five months working at the Program for Extraordinary Experience research (PEER.) PEER was founded by the late Dr John Mack (click here for more on PEER.)

The following year, 1996, he established the Paradigm Research Group (PRG) and registered himself as a lobbyist.

In 1997, he attended the Steven Greer/CSETI press and congressional briefings in Washington. That same year, he assisted a Phoenix, Arizona Councilwoman, Frances Barwood respond to critics of her speaking out about the Phoenix Lights (click here). Also, that year, he became involved in the issue surrounding lawsuits taken out by former employees of Area 51.

Two years later, in 1999, in collaboration with MUFON, he became involved with a UFO State Ballot initiative. Also in 1999, Bassett founded the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee (click here).

In 2001, the PRG assisted with the Disclosure Press Conference held on 9 May 2001.

2002 saw Bassett announce his Maryland 8th District Congressional campaign.

Between 2004 and 2008 he was busy organising X-conferences (click here for more) , discussing his interests and bringing in other speakers.

In 2008 the "Million fax on Washington" campaign was aimed at the transitional HQ of the new president elect.

2010 sees the latest X-conference (click here.)

Stephen Bassett in Australia

Hi readers

In a recent post, I mentioned that Exopolitics speaker Stephen Bassett would be speaking at the Nexus conference in Sydney. My apologies for an incorrect city here. A check of the Nexus conference details (click here) reveals it will be held on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.

Exopolitics 2

Dear readers

Now to tackle one of the research papers by Dr Michael E Salla. This one is from 2005 titled "The history of exopolitics:evolving political approaches to UFOs and the extraterrestrial hypothesis."

In this paper the term "Exopolitics" is defined as:

"Exopolitics is the study of the key political actions, institutions and processes associated with the UFO phenomenon and the extraterrestrial hypothesis."

Salla proposes that although the term was coined in the year 2000, various people in the past have pursued the aims of exopolitics.

He outlines four phases of exopolitical activity:

Phase 1 1948 The Flying Saucer Conspiracy. A key person was Donald Keyhoe. Critical events were in 1953, The Robertson Panel; 1954 the issuing of the JANAP 146 instruction; the Brookings Report; the 1969 Condon report; 1987 Timothy Good's book "Above Top Secret"; and Richard Dolan's book "UFOs and the National Security State."

Phase 2 was 1974 onwards. The Freedom of Information Act, leaked documents and Cosmic Watergate. Critical events and people were: 1974 FOIA in the USA; Late 1970's Citizens Against UFO Secrecy (CAUS); the 1984 book "Clear Intent" by Laurence Fawcett and Barry Greenwood; documents leaked to Jaime Shaidera, William Moore, Tim Cooper and studies of these documents by Robert Wood and Stanton Friedman;the 1997 book "UFOs are Real" by Clifford Stone.

Phase 3 1992 Political activism and the UFO cover up. Ed Komarek and Mike Jamieson -Operation Right to Know 1992-1995; 1993 Laurence Rockefeller -effort to brief President Clinton on UFO issues; Dr Steven Greer-Disclosure project, testimony of whistle blowers "Greer built an impressive database of testimonies by whistle blowers who outlined how military authorities and national securiy agencies were systematically covering up evidence confirming both the reality of the UFO phenomenon and the ETH." 2002 -candidature of Stephen Bassett for congressional election.

Phase 4 2003 onwards Exopolitics emerges as a distinct approach to UFO evidence. Key people, Alfred Webre; Stephen Bassett and Michael E Salla.

Alfred Webre - 2000 - coined and used the term exoplitics; wrote an e-book 22000 words. "Exopolitics: Towards a Decade of Contact." Expanded and published as a regular book in 2005 titled "Exopolitics:Politics, Government and Law in the Universe."

Stephen bassett - 2004-2005 organised "Exopolitics Expos" in Washington, DC.

Comment:

This paper gave me a much clearer understanding of the topic of exopolitics and the key players over the year. I'll take a look at some of thes key players in later posts, and save my analysis comments till then.

Exopolitics 1

Hi readers

I was trawling the Internet the other day and came across a reference to "Exopolitics." Unsure as to exactly what this term meant, I opened up a few websites and started to read...

The first website (click here to go there) defines the term as follows "Exopolitics is the study of the key individuals, political institutions and processes associated with extraterrestrial life." The introduction on the home page continues "Information concerning extraterrestrial life and technology is kept secret from the general public, elected political representatives and even senior military officials."

The front page provides for "announcements" such as the release of a new book on the topic "March 19, 2010- Spanish edition of Exposing U.S. Government Policies on Extraterrestrial Life to be released at UFO World Conference, Mexico City." There are also "recent articles" such as "Examiner Article (February 23 2009) - Is 2010 the year of discovery for extraterrestrial life? (850 words." Plus links to research papers such as "Exopolitics Journal Article (July 1, 2009) - Kennedy’s Deadly Confrontation with the CIA & MJ-12 - (4800 words)." There are links to other Exopolitics websites in at least 14 other countries.

I was interested to find out a bit about who founded the site, so clicked on the link to "Founder."

The founder was a Dr Michael E Salla. "His interest in exopolitics evolved out of his investigation of the sources of international conflict and its relationship to an extraterrestrial presence that is not acknowledged to the general public."

Salla wrote a 2004 book titled "Exopolitics: Political Implications of the Extraterrestrial Presence." A second book appeared in 2009, titled "Exposing the US Government Policies on Extraterrestrial Life."

The site advises that Salla holds a PhD in Government from the University of Queensland, Australia and an MA in Philosophy from the University of Melbourne.

Academically, Salla was (1994-1996) in the Department of Political Science, Australian National University, Canberra, Australia; then (1996-2004) the School of International Service and the Center for Global Peace, American University, Washington, USA.

The "About this site" area reveals that Salla's ET research interest came from seeing the Disclosure Project Press Conference in May 2001 (click here for more information.) "I decided to begin researching evidence concerning an undisclosed extraterrestrial presence."

He then ran into difficulties with his employer, the center for Global peace and American University, so he created the Exopolitics.org website on 20 January 2003. Since 2003, the site has carried the results of his research work.

The "Recommended Reading" page lists, and links to several research papers which provide an overall view of exopolitics.
