I have been lately very pleased to notice a definite change of character to UFO research over the past five years that Steven Greenstreet has now put some real effort into discussing in this program. To my mind, this is entirely to his credit and sets his conclusions head and shoulders above most of the stories covered by better known UFO proponent researchers in the United States and around the world. It has done nothing but add to the credibility addressed by "The Basement Office".
My own research convinced me many years ago that there is a loud and assertive group of UFO proponents who have, since at least the early 1990's, reached the conclusion that purposely misrepresenting or inventing from nothing stories of UFO encounters that would never have been given a public airing prior to their public interference was both ethically and operationally appropriate if the result was to gain public support for their goals, these goals including a well-financed investigation of UFO phenomena conducted by the U. S. government with the ultimate intention being the recognition of intergalactic travel to and exploration of our planet by extraterrestrial visitors. Make no mistake: these are political goals that would be debated at the highest levels of our government that would included the disposition of millions of dollars of tax monies collected by the IRS for the purpose of advancing government.
The dishonest activities of these many individuals and organizations have very definitively whitewashed the entire structure of and the governmental response to the subject of UFO interference and observations of such through media-reported incidents across the entire planet to such a marked degree that it is now impossible for sane individuals reach any valid conclusions whatsoever about UFO phenomena except that people lie about them all the time. When both eye-witness reporting and video "evidence" cannot be trusted because of this open dishonesty and contempt for human opinion -- contempt that has been repeatedly fostered by those who believe their lies are merely an acceptable means of appropriating belief in the "Truth" -- these individuals and groups are merely professing their preference for faith above reason, and then insisting that the U. S government fund programs to address and study the issues previously supported only by their "faith". It would be similar in spirit to Mary Magdalene and the Apostles conspiring to "invent" a tale of Christ's resurrection in order to give his teachings the benefit of religious support they were convinced those teachings deserved.
In the past, "The Basement Office" has shown a lesser degree of open skepticism that many of the incidents that have been discussed may have deserved. This degree of skepticism has now been markedly increased, particularly where Mr. Greenstreet's research has revealed numerous documentation that seems to have been published merely to disengage the subject from attempts to nail down dates, names and claims for various events, which could be considered a major "sin" within the field of government recordkeeping. When Steven Greenstreet is faced with an issue that increases doubt, he talks about it, which is definitely not the sort of response one expects from those individuals who are more activist than they are reporter. He is also not averse to correcting prior conclusions after "additional reflection" by witnesses or reporters have resulted in too many changes to claims made to otherwise ignore. A lot of research, particularly in the claims made by UFO proponents, require a lot of backtracking to properly address, and Greenstreet has shown a willingness to take this important and necessary step when required to do so. I can assure you, this is a rare commodity among all too many UFO proponents and activists, and is one of the many reasons that intelligent men and women who believe the claims made by UFO researchers and witnesses should perhaps reassess their faith when addressing such issues in the future.
