The Ten Commandments of Coverup 1) Successful conspiracies are impossible.
"How did we keep the Manhattan Project secret as long as we did. Two billion dollars in 1942 money, tens of thousands of people involved in the construction of enormous facilities that at one point were using eleven percent of the electricity in the United States, to blow uranium hexaflouride through little holes in a mile-long building--and yet, it was
kept secret. Secrets are easy to keep, as long as you control the detection systems, the communications systems, and the interference systems, if you will. I've talked to a number of people who worked for Truman and Eisenhower. Every single one agreed that secrets could have always been kept, at least post-World War II. No problem at all." 2) The government shall not be considered a suspect.
"There is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that (people) had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." 3) He who controls the proof, controls the truth.
"Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about the UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense. To hide the facts, the Air Force has silenced its personnel." 4) The purpose of an official investigation is to confirm a cover story.
"Based upon unreliable and unscientific surmises as data, the Air Force develops elaborate statistical findings which seem impressive to the uninitiated public unschooled in the fallacies of the statistical method. One must conclude that the highly publicized Air Force pronouncements based upon unsound statistics serve merely to misrepreent the true character of the UFO phenomena." 5) An effective cover story must include some element of integrity.
"No UFO reported, investigated and evaluated by the Air Force has ever given any indication of a threat to our national security." "Further scientific investigation of UFOs is unwarranted." "Never believe in anything until it has been officially denied." 6) Evidence supporting conspiracy shall be contentiously derided.
"Though presented as an earnest investigation into the reports of UFO sightings and activity, declassified documents reveal that the Condon Committee never sincerely intended to investigate the physical reality of the existance of UFOs. In an early memorandum by one of Dr. Edward U. Condon's staff, it was boldly stated that "the trick would be, I think, to
describe the project so that to the public, it would appear a totally objective study... one way to do this would be to stress
investigation, not of the physical phenomenon, but rather of the people who are doing the observing..." 7) Evidence opposing conspiracy shall be accepted on face value.
"Strictly in terms of the sociology of science, the refusal to consider the facts of the UFO phenomenon is a remarkable statement about the narrow limits within which our society authorizes the serious pursuit of knowledge." 8) Only "official" institutions may certify "facts"---all else is rumor.
"Proof doesn't matter if a culture has decided that the proven thing is impossible. It will not be accepted as a reality, regardless of the validity of the evidence to prove its existance." 9) Marginalize, intimidate, and silence dissent.
"For other analysts, thc key concern is the effect on govemment administration. The potential dark side is captured in studies warning about the emergence of a 'computer state' (Bumham 1983), a 'dossier society' (Laudon 1986), and a 'Surveillance' that may limit personal liberty in the United States (see, also, Bell 1979). These studies show that the new technology may facilitate the monitoring and surveillance of
people on the job and elsewhere, the amassing and merging of enormnous statistical data banks for profiling individuals and their activities, and the restriction of access to "Strategic" and 'secret' information. After all, the U.S. government has more data on its citizens than any totalitarian government has on its citizens." 10) Closure is God.
"Men occasionally stumble on the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened."
