CHAPTER THIRTEEN - A LESSON IN THE FUTURE

 
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)
"I THINK THIS TRANSCRIPT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF ALSO. I RELAYED AIRL'S EXACT COMMUNICATION AS FAITHFULLY AS POSSIBLE. MY SUPERIOR OFFICERS BECAME VERY ALARMED ABOUT THE POSSIBLE MILITARY IMPLICATIONS OF WHAT AIRL SAID IN THIS INTERVIEW."
 

(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF INTERVIEW)
TOP SECRET
OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF THE U.S. ARMY AIR FORCE ROSWELL ARMY AIR FIELD, 509TH BOMB GROUP

SUBJECT: ALIEN INTERVIEW, 31. 7. 1947, 1ST SESSION


"IT IS MY PERSONAL BELIEF THAT THE TRUTH SHOULD NOT BE SACRIFICED ON THE ALTAR OF POLITICAL, RELIGIOUS OR ECONOMIC EXPEDIENCY. 227 (FOOTNOTE) AS AN OFFICER, PILOT AND ENGINEER OF THE DOMAIN IT IS MY DUTY TO PROTECT THE GREATER GOOD OF THE DOMAIN AND ITS POSSESSIONS. HOWEVER, WE CANNOT DEFEND OURSELVES AGAINST FORCES OF WHICH WE ARE NOT AWARE.


THE ISOLATION OF EARTH FROM THE REST OF CIVILIZATION PREVENTS ME FROM DISCUSSING MANY SUBJECTS WITH YOU AT THIS TIME. SECURITY AND PROTOCOL PREVENT ME FROM REVEALING ANY BUT THE BROADEST, GENERAL STATEMENTS ABOUT THE PLANS AND ACTIVITIES OF THE DOMAIN. HOWEVER, I CAN GIVE YOU SOME INFORMATION THAT YOU MAY FIND USEFUL.


I MUST RETURN TO MY ASSIGNED DUTIES ON THE "SPACE STATION" NOW. I HAVE PROVIDED AS MUCH HELP AS I FEEL ETHICALLY ABLE TO OFFER, GIVEN THE REQUIREMENTS AND CONSTRAINTS OF MY DUTIES AS AN OFFICER, PILOT AND ENGINEER OF THE DOMAIN FORCES. THEREFORE, I WILL DEPART, AS AN IS-BE, FROM EARTH WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS.'


(EDITOR'S NOTE: THE FOLLOWING SEVERAL PARAGRAPHS APPEAR TO BE PERSONAL COMMENTS MADE BY MATILDA TO THE STENOGRAPHER REGARDING HER INTERVIEW WITH AIRL.)


WHAT THIS MEANS IS THAT AIRL WILL LEAVE HER "DOLL" WITH US, AS HER CRAFT IS DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR. WE CAN EXAMINE, DISSECT AND STUDY THE BODY AT OUR LEISURE. SHE DOES NOT HAVE ANY FURTHER USE FOR IT, NOR DOES SHE HAVE ANY PERSONAL FEELINGS OR ATTACHMENTS TO IT AS OTHERS ARE READILY AVAILABLE FOR HER USE.


AIRL DOES NOT RECOMMEND THAT THERE IS ANY TECHNOLOGY IN THE BODY THAT EARTH SCIENTISTS WILL FIND USEFUL, HOWEVER. THE TECHNOLOGY OF THE BODY IS SIMPLE, YET VASTLY BEYOND THE RECKONING OF OUR CURRENT ABILITY TO ANALYZE OR REVERSE ENGINEER ANY FACET OF IT. THE BODY IS NEITHER BIOLOGICAL OR MECHANICAL, BUT A UNIQUE FABRICATION A MATERIALS AND ANCIENT TECHNOLOGIES NOT FOUND ON ANY EARTH-TYPE PLANET.


AS AIRL MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY, A VERY RIGID AND DISTINCTIVE HIERARCHY OF SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND CULTURAL CLASSES EXISTS THROUGHOUT THE DOMAIN WHICH HAS REMAINED UNVARIED AND INVIOLATE FOR MANY MILLENNIA. THE BODY TYPE AND FUNCTION ASSIGNED TO AN IS-BE OFFICER VARIES SPECIFICALLY ACCORDING TO THE RANK, CLASS, LONGEVITY, TRAINING LEVEL, COMMAND LEVEL, SERVICE RECORD, AND MERITORIOUS CITATIONS EARNED BY EACH INDIVIDUAL IS-BE, AS WITH ANY OTHER MILITARY INSIGNIA.


THE BODY USED BY AIRL IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR AN OFFICER, PILOT AND ENGINEER OF HER RANK AND CLASS. THE BODIES OF HER COMPANIONS, WHICH WERE DESTROYED IN THE CRASH, WERE NOT OF THE SAME RANK OR CLASS, BUT OF A JUNIOR RANK. THEREFORE, THE APPEARANCE, FEATURES, COMPOSITION AND FUNCTIONALITY OF THOSE BODIES WERE SPECIALIZED, AND LIMITED TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THEIR DUTIES.


THE JUNIOR OFFICERS WHOSE BODIES WERE DAMAGED IN THE CRASH HAVE LEFT THEIR BODIES AND RETURNED TO THEIR DUTIES ON THE SPACE STATION. THE DAMAGE SUFFERED BY THEIR BODIES WAS DUE PRIMARILY TO THE FACT THAT THEY WERE OFFICERS OF LOWER RANK. THEY USED BODIES WHICH WERE PARTIALLY BIOLOGICAL AND THEREFORE FAR LESS DURABLE AND RESILIENT THAN HERS.


(EDITOR'S NOTE: AT THIS POINT, THE TRANSCRIPT APPEARS TO RESUME WITH STATEMENTS MADE BY AIRL.)


ALTHOUGH THE DOMAIN WILL NOT HESITATE TO DESTROY ANY ACTIVE VESTIGES OF THE "OLD EMPIRE" OPERATIONS WHERE EVER THEY ARE DISCOVERED THIS IS NOT OUR PRIMARY MISSION IN THIS GALAXY. I AM SURE THAT THE "OLD EMPIRE" MIND-CONTROL MECHANISMS CAN BE DEACTIVATED AND DESTROYED EVENTUALLY. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO ESTIMATE HOW LONG THIS MAKE TAKE, AS WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE EXTENT OF THIS OPERATION AT THIS TIME.


WE DO KNOW THAT THE "OLD EMPIRE" FORCE SCREEN IS VAST ENOUGH TO COVER THIS END OF THE GALAXY, AT LEAST. WE ALSO KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE THAT EACH FORCE GENERATOR AND TRAPPING DEVICE IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DETECT, LOCATE AND DESTROY. ALSO, IT IS NOT THE CURRENT MISSION OF THE DOMAIN EXPEDITIONARY FORCE TO COMMIT RESOURCES TO THIS ENDEAVOR.


THE EVENTUAL DESTRUCTION OF THESE DEVICES MAY MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR YOUR MEMORY TO BE RESTORED, SIMPLY BY VIRTUE OF NOT HAVING IT ERASED AFTER EACH LIFETIME. FORTUNATELY, THE MEMORY OF AN IS-BE CANNOT BE PERMANENTLY ERASED.


THERE ARE MANY OTHER ACTIVE SPACE CIVILIZATIONS WHO MAINTAIN VARIOUS NEFARIOUS OPERATIONS IN THIS AREA, NOT THE LEAST OF WHICH IS DUMPING UNWANTED IS-BES ON EARTH. NONE OF THESE CRAFT ARE HOSTILE OR IN VIOLENT OPPOSITION TO THE DOMAIN FORCES. THEY KNOW BETTER THAN TO CHALLENGE US!


FOR THE MOST PART THE DOMAIN IGNORES EARTH AND ITS INHABITANTS, EXCEPT TO ENSURE THAT THE RESOURCES OF THE PLANET ITSELF ARE NOT PERMANENTLY SPOILED. THIS SECTOR OF THE GALAXY WAS ANNEXED BY THE DOMAIN AND IS THE POSSESSION OF THE DOMAIN, TO DO WITH OR DISPOSE OF AS IT DEEMS BEST. THE MOON OF EARTH AND THE ASTEROID BELT HAVE BECOME A PERMANENT BASE OF OPERATIONS FOR THE DOMAIN FORCES.


NEEDLESS TO SAY, ANY ATTEMPT BY HUMANS OR OTHERS TO INTERFERE IN THE ACTIVITIES OF THE DOMAIN IN THIS SOLAR SYSTEM - EVEN IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, WHICH IT DEFINITELY IS NOT - WILL BE TERMINATED SWIFTLY. THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS CONCERN, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, SINCE HOMO SAPIENS CANNOT OPERATE IN OPEN SPACE.


OF COURSE WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE NEXT STEPS OF THE DOMAIN EXPANSION PLAN WHICH HAS REMAINED ON SCHEDULE FOR BILLIONS OF YEARS. OVER THE NEXT 5,000 YEARS THERE WILL BE INCREASING TRAFFIC AND ACTIVITY OF THE DOMAIN FORCES AS WE PROGRESS TOWARD THE CENTER OF THIS GALAXY AND BEYOND TO SPREAD OUR CIVILIZATION THROUGH THE UNIVERSE.


IF HUMANITY IS TO SURVIVE, IT MUST COOPERATE TO FIND EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS TO THE DIFFICULT CONDITIONS OF YOUR EXISTENCE ON EARTH. HUMANITY MUST RISE ABOVE ITS HUMAN FORM AND DISCOVER WHERE THEY ARE, AND THAT THEY ARE IS-BES, AND WHO THEY REALLY ARE AS IS-BES IN ORDER TO TRANSCEND THE NOTION THAT THEY ARE MERELY BIOLOGICAL BODIES. ONCE THESE REALIZATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE, IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO ESCAPE YOUR CURRENT IMPRISONMENT. OTHERWISE, THERE WILL BE NO FUTURE FOR THE IS-BES ON EARTH.

 
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NO ACTIVE BATTLES OR WAR BEING WAGED BETWEEN THE DOMAIN AND THE "OLD EMPIRE", THERE STILL EXISTS THE COVERT ACTIONS OF THE "OLD EMPIRE" TAKEN AGAINST EARTH THROUGH THEIR THOUGHT CONTROL OPERATION.


WHEN ONE KNOWS THAT THESE THESE ACTIVITIES EXIST, THE EFFECTS CAN BE OBSERVED CLEARLY. THE MOST OBVIOUS EXAMPLES OF THESE ACTIONS AGAINST THE HUMAN RACE CAN BE SEEN AS INCIDENTS OF SUDDEN, INEXPLICABLE BEHAVIOR. A VERY RECENT INSTANCE OF THIS OCCURRED IN THE UNITED STATES MILITARY JUST BEFORE THE JAPANESE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR. 228 (FOOTNOTE)

 
JUST THREE DAYS BEFORE THE ATTACK, SOMEONE IN AUTHORITY ORDERED ALL THE SHIPS IN PEARL HARBOR TO GO INTO PORT AND SECURE FOR INSPECTION. THE SHIPS WERE ORDERED TO TAKE ALL THE AMMUNITION OUT OF THEIR MAGAZINES, AND STORE IT BELOW. ON THE AFTERNOON BEFORE ATTACK ALL OF THE ADMIRALS AND GENERALS WERE ATTENDING PARTIES, EVEN THOUGH TWO JAPANESE AIRCRAFT CARRIERS WERE DISCOVERED STANDING RIGHT OFF PEARL HARBOR.


THE OBVIOUS ACTION TO TAKE WOULD HAVE BEEN TO CONTACT PEARL HARBOR BY TELEPHONE TO WARN THEM OF THE DANGER OF A FIGHT STARTING AND TO PUT THE AMMUNITION BACK AND ORDER THE SHIPS TO GET OUT OF PORT INTO OPEN SEA.


ABOUT SIX HOURS BEFORE THE JAPANESE ATTACK BEGAN, A U.S. NAVY SHIP SANK A SMALL JAPANESE SUBMARINE RIGHT OUTSIDE THE HARBOR. INSTEAD OF CONTACTING PEARL HARBOR BY TELEPHONE TO REPORT THE INCIDENT, A WARNING MESSAGE WAS PUT INTO TOP SECRET CODE, WHICH TOOK ABOUT TWO HOURS TO ENCODE, AND THEN IT TOOK ANOTHER TWO HOURS TO DECODE.

 
THE WORD OF WARNING TO PEARL HARBOR DID NOT ARRIVE UNTIL 10:00 AM PEARL HARBOR TIME, SUNDAY - TWO HOURS AFTER THE JAPANESE ATTACK DESTROYED THE U.S. FLEET.


HOW DO THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPEN?


IF THE MEN WHO WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE OBVIOUSLY DISASTROUS ERRORS WERE STOOD UP AND ASKED BLUNTLY TO JUSTIFY THEIR ACTIONS AND INTENTIONS YOU WOULD FIND OUT THAT THEY WERE QUITE SINCERE IN THEIR JOBS. ORDINARILY, THEY DO THE VERY BEST THEY CAN DO FOR PEOPLE AND NATIONS. HOWEVER, ALL OF A SUDDEN, FROM SOME COMPLETELY UNKNOWN AND UNDETECTABLE SOURCE ENTERS THESE WILD, UNEXPLAINABLE SITUATIONS THAT JUST 'CAN'T EXIST'.


THE "OLD EMPIRE" THOUGHT CONTROL OPERATION IS RUN BY A SMALL GROUP OF OLD "BABOONS" WITH VERY SMALL MINDS. THEY ARE PLAYING INSIDIOUS GAMES WITH NO PURPOSE AND NO GOAL OTHER THAN TO CONTROL AND DESTROY IS-BES WHO COULD OTHERWISE MANAGE THEMSELVES PERFECTLY WELL, IF LEFT ALONE.


THESE TYPES OF ARTIFICIALLY CREATED INCIDENTS (AS RECENTLY) ARE BEING FORCED UPON THE HUMAN RACE BY THE OPERATORS OF THE MIND-CONTROL PRISON SYSTEM. THE PRISON GUARDS WILL ALWAYS PROMOTE AND SUPPORT OPPRESSIVE OR TOTALITARIAN ACTIVITIES OF IS-BES ON EARTH. WHY NOT KEEP THE INMATES FIGHTING BETWEEN THEMSELVES? WHY NOT EMPOWER MADMEN TO RUN THE GOVERNMENTS OF EARTH? THE MEN WHO RUN THE CRIMINAL GOVERNMENTS OF EARTH MIRROR THE COMMANDS GIVEN THEM BY COVERT THOUGHT-CONTROLLERS OF THE "OLD EMPIRE".


THE HUMAN RACE WILL CONTINUE TO SHADOW BOX WITH THIS FOR A LONG TIME - AS LONG AS IT REMAINS THE HUMAN RACE. UNTIL THEN, THE IS-BES ON EARTH WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE A SERIES OF CONSECUTIVE LIVES, OVER AND OVER AND OVER. THE SAME IS-BES WHO LIVED DURING THE RISE AND FALL OF CIVILIZATIONS IN INDIA, CHINA, MESOPOTAMIA, GREECE, AND ROME ARE INHABITING BODIES IN THE PRESENT TIME IN AMERICA, FRANCE, RUSSIA, AFRICA, AND AROUND THE WORLD.
 

IN BETWEEN EACH LIFETIME AN IS-BE IS SENT BACK AGAIN, TO BEGIN ALL OVER, AS THOUGH THE NEW LIFE WAS THE ONLY LIFE THEY HAD EVER LIVED. THEY BEGIN ANEW IN PAIN, IN MISERY, AND MYSTERY.


SOME IS-BES HAVE BEEN TRANSPORTED TO EARTH MORE RECENTLY THAN OTHERS. SOME IS-BES HAVE BEEN ON EARTH ONLY A FEW HUNDRED YEARS, SO THEY HAVE NO PERSONAL EXPERIENCES WITH THE EARLIER CIVILIZATIONS OF EARTH. THEY HAVE NO EXPERIENCES OF HAVING LIVED ON EARTH, SO COULD NOT REMEMBER A PREVIOUS EXISTENCE HERE, EVEN IF THEIR MEMORY WAS RESTORED. THEY MIGHT, HOWEVER, REMEMBER LIVES THEY LIVED ELSEWHERE ON OTHER PLANETS AND IN OTHER TIMES.
 

OTHERS HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE THE FIRST DAYS OF LEMURIA. IN ANY CASE, THE IS-BES OF EARTH ARE HERE FOREVER, UNTIL THEY CAN BREAK THE AMNESIA CYCLE, CONQUER THE ELECTRONIC TRAPS SET UP BY THEIR CAPTORS AND FREE THEMSELVES.


BECAUSE THE DOMAIN HAS THREE THOUSAND OF THEIR OWN IS-BES IN CAPTIVITY ON EARTH ALSO, THEY HAVE AN INTEREST IN SOLVING THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM HAS NEVER BEEN ENCOUNTERED OR EFFECTIVELY SOLVED BEFORE IN THE UNIVERSE, AS FAR AS THEY KNOW. THEY WILL CONTINUE THEIR EFFORTS TO FREE THOSE IS-BES FROM EARTH, WHERE AND WHEN IT IS POSSIBLE, BUT IT WILL REQUIRE TIME TO DEVELOP AN UNPRECEDENTED TECHNOLOGY AND THE DILIGENCE TO DO SO.'
 

(EDITOR'S NOTE: THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IS A COMMENT BY MATILDA.)


I THINK IT IS AIRL'S SINCERE DESIRE, AS ONE IS-BE TO ANOTHER, THAT THE REST OF OUR ETERNITY WILL BE AS PLEASANT AS POSSIBLE."

 
FOOTNOTES

227 "...POLITICAL, RELIGIOUS OR ECONOMIC EXPEDIENCY."
THE COMMON DENOMINATOR OF POLITICS, RELIGION AND ECONOMICS IS THAT THEY ARE EACH BASED ON VESTED INTERESTS.

-- THE EDITOR
SEE THE DEFINITION OF "VESTED INTEREST":

"1) A SURVIVAL OR NON-SURVIVAL PLAN OR AGENDA WHICH HAS BEEN "CLOTHED" TO MAKE IT SEEM LIKE SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT IT ACTUALLY IS.
2) ANY PERSON, GROUP OR ENTITY WHICH PREVENTS OR CONTROLS COMMUNICATION TO SERVE THEIR OWN PURPOSES, (PLANS OR AGENDA)."

228 "... JUST BEFORE THE JAPANESE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR... "
"THE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR WAS A SURPRISE ATTACK AGAINST THE UNITED STATES' NAVAL BASE AT PEARL HARBOR, HAWAII BY THE JAPANESE NAVY, AT 0800 HOURS ON THE MORNING OF SUNDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1941, RESULTING IN THE UNITED STATES BECOMING INVOLVED IN WORLD WAR II. HOSTILITIES BETWEEN THE U.S. AND JAPAN WERE EXPECTED BY MANY OBSERVERS, INCLUDING PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, WHO READ A DECRYPTED JAPANESE MESSAGE (ON DECEMBER 1ST, 1941) AND TOLD HIS ASSISTANT HARRY HOPKINS, "THIS MEANS WAR."


AT 03:42 HAWAIIAN TIME, HOURS BEFORE COMMANDING ADMIRAL CHUICHI NAGUMO BEGAN LAUNCHING STRIKE AIRCRAFT, THE MINESWEEPER USS CONDOR SPOTTED A MIDGET SUBMARINE OUTSIDE THE HARBOR ENTRANCE AND ALERTED DESTROYER USS WARD. WARD WAS INITIALLY UNSUCCESSFUL IN LOCATING THE TARGET. HOURS LATER, WARD FIRED AMERICA'S FIRST SHOTS IN THE PACIFIC THEATER OF WWII WHEN SHE ATTACKED AND SANK A MIDGET SUBMARINE, PERHAPS THE SAME ONE, AT 06:37.


CLOSER TO THE MOMENT OF THE ATTACK, THE ATTACKING PLANES WERE DETECTED AND TRACKED AS THEY APPROACHED BY AN ARMY RADAR INSTALLATION BEING OPERATED THAT MORNING AS A MOSTLY UNOFFICIAL TRAINING EXERCISE. THE OPANA POINT RADAR STATION, OPERATED BY TWO ENLISTED MEN (PVTS. LOCKARD AND ELLIOT) PLOTTED THE APPROACHING FORCE, AND THEIR RELIEF TEAM PLOTTED THEM RETURNING TO THE CARRIERS. THE INITIAL RADAR RETURNS WERE THOUGHT, BY THE ILL-TRAINED JUNIOR OFFICER (LT. KERMIT A. TYLER) IN CHARGE AT THE BARELY OPERATIONAL WARNING INFORMATION CENTER AT PEARL HARBOR, TO BE A FLIGHT OF AMERICAN BOMBERS EXPECTED FROM THE MAINLAND. IN FACT THOSE BOMBERS DID ARRIVE, FROM A SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT BEARING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ATTACK.


ADDITIONALLY, JAPANESE SUBMARINES WERE SIGHTED AND ATTACKED (BY USS WARD) OUTSIDE THE HARBOR ENTRANCE A FEW HOURS BEFORE THE ATTACK COMMENCED, AND AT LEAST ONE WAS SUNK—ALL BEFORE THE PLANES CAME WITHIN EVEN RADAR RANGE. THIS MIGHT HAVE PROVIDED ENOUGH NOTICE TO DISPERSE AIRCRAFT AND FLY OFF RECONNAISSANCE, EXCEPT, YET AGAIN, REACTIONS OF THE DUTY OFFICERS WERE TARDY. IT HAS BEEN ARGUED FAILURE TO FOLLOW UP ON DF BEARINGS SAVED USS ENTERPRISE. IF SHE HAD BEEN CORRECTLY DIRECTED, SHE MIGHT HAVE RUN INTO THE SIX CARRIER JAPANESE STRIKE FORCE.


AFTER THE ATTACK, THE SEARCH FOR THE ATTACK FORCE WAS CONCENTRATED SOUTH OF PEARL HARBOR, CONTINUING THE CONFUSION AND INEFFECTIVENESS OF THE AMERICAN RESPONSE.


ANOTHER ISSUE IN THE DEBATE IS THE FACT NEITHER ADMIRAL KIMMEL NOR GENERAL SHORT EVER FACED COURT MARTIAL. IT IS ALLEGED THIS WAS TO AVOID DISCLOSING INFORMATION CONSPIRATORS WOULD NOT WANT TO SEE MADE PUBLIC. WHEN ASKED, KIMMEL REPLIED, "WILL HISTORIANS KNOW MORE LATER? KIMMEL'S REPLY TO THIS WAS:'... I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I BELIEVE. I THINK THAT MOST OF THE INCRIMINATING RECORDS HAVE BEEN DESTROYED.... I DOUBT IF THE TRUTH WILL EVER EMERGE.'..." IT IS EQUALLY, PROBABLY MORE, LIKELY THIS WAS DONE TO AVOID DISCLOSING THE FACT JAPANESE CODES WERE BEING READ, GIVEN THERE WAS A WAR ON."

CHAPTER THIRTEEN - A LESSON IN THE FUTURE

 
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)
"I THINK THIS TRANSCRIPT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF ALSO. I RELAYED AIRL'S EXACT COMMUNICATION AS FAITHFULLY AS POSSIBLE. MY SUPERIOR OFFICERS BECAME VERY ALARMED ABOUT THE POSSIBLE MILITARY IMPLICATIONS OF WHAT AIRL SAID IN THIS INTERVIEW."
 

(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF INTERVIEW)
TOP SECRET
OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF THE U.S. ARMY AIR FORCE ROSWELL ARMY AIR FIELD, 509TH BOMB GROUP

SUBJECT: ALIEN INTERVIEW, 31. 7. 1947, 1ST SESSION


"IT IS MY PERSONAL BELIEF THAT THE TRUTH SHOULD NOT BE SACRIFICED ON THE ALTAR OF POLITICAL, RELIGIOUS OR ECONOMIC EXPEDIENCY. 227 (FOOTNOTE) AS AN OFFICER, PILOT AND ENGINEER OF THE DOMAIN IT IS MY DUTY TO PROTECT THE GREATER GOOD OF THE DOMAIN AND ITS POSSESSIONS. HOWEVER, WE CANNOT DEFEND OURSELVES AGAINST FORCES OF WHICH WE ARE NOT AWARE.


THE ISOLATION OF EARTH FROM THE REST OF CIVILIZATION PREVENTS ME FROM DISCUSSING MANY SUBJECTS WITH YOU AT THIS TIME. SECURITY AND PROTOCOL PREVENT ME FROM REVEALING ANY BUT THE BROADEST, GENERAL STATEMENTS ABOUT THE PLANS AND ACTIVITIES OF THE DOMAIN. HOWEVER, I CAN GIVE YOU SOME INFORMATION THAT YOU MAY FIND USEFUL.


I MUST RETURN TO MY ASSIGNED DUTIES ON THE "SPACE STATION" NOW. I HAVE PROVIDED AS MUCH HELP AS I FEEL ETHICALLY ABLE TO OFFER, GIVEN THE REQUIREMENTS AND CONSTRAINTS OF MY DUTIES AS AN OFFICER, PILOT AND ENGINEER OF THE DOMAIN FORCES. THEREFORE, I WILL DEPART, AS AN IS-BE, FROM EARTH WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS.'


(EDITOR'S NOTE: THE FOLLOWING SEVERAL PARAGRAPHS APPEAR TO BE PERSONAL COMMENTS MADE BY MATILDA TO THE STENOGRAPHER REGARDING HER INTERVIEW WITH AIRL.)


WHAT THIS MEANS IS THAT AIRL WILL LEAVE HER "DOLL" WITH US, AS HER CRAFT IS DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR. WE CAN EXAMINE, DISSECT AND STUDY THE BODY AT OUR LEISURE. SHE DOES NOT HAVE ANY FURTHER USE FOR IT, NOR DOES SHE HAVE ANY PERSONAL FEELINGS OR ATTACHMENTS TO IT AS OTHERS ARE READILY AVAILABLE FOR HER USE.


AIRL DOES NOT RECOMMEND THAT THERE IS ANY TECHNOLOGY IN THE BODY THAT EARTH SCIENTISTS WILL FIND USEFUL, HOWEVER. THE TECHNOLOGY OF THE BODY IS SIMPLE, YET VASTLY BEYOND THE RECKONING OF OUR CURRENT ABILITY TO ANALYZE OR REVERSE ENGINEER ANY FACET OF IT. THE BODY IS NEITHER BIOLOGICAL OR MECHANICAL, BUT A UNIQUE FABRICATION A MATERIALS AND ANCIENT TECHNOLOGIES NOT FOUND ON ANY EARTH-TYPE PLANET.


AS AIRL MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY, A VERY RIGID AND DISTINCTIVE HIERARCHY OF SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND CULTURAL CLASSES EXISTS THROUGHOUT THE DOMAIN WHICH HAS REMAINED UNVARIED AND INVIOLATE FOR MANY MILLENNIA. THE BODY TYPE AND FUNCTION ASSIGNED TO AN IS-BE OFFICER VARIES SPECIFICALLY ACCORDING TO THE RANK, CLASS, LONGEVITY, TRAINING LEVEL, COMMAND LEVEL, SERVICE RECORD, AND MERITORIOUS CITATIONS EARNED BY EACH INDIVIDUAL IS-BE, AS WITH ANY OTHER MILITARY INSIGNIA.


THE BODY USED BY AIRL IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR AN OFFICER, PILOT AND ENGINEER OF HER RANK AND CLASS. THE BODIES OF HER COMPANIONS, WHICH WERE DESTROYED IN THE CRASH, WERE NOT OF THE SAME RANK OR CLASS, BUT OF A JUNIOR RANK. THEREFORE, THE APPEARANCE, FEATURES, COMPOSITION AND FUNCTIONALITY OF THOSE BODIES WERE SPECIALIZED, AND LIMITED TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THEIR DUTIES.


THE JUNIOR OFFICERS WHOSE BODIES WERE DAMAGED IN THE CRASH HAVE LEFT THEIR BODIES AND RETURNED TO THEIR DUTIES ON THE SPACE STATION. THE DAMAGE SUFFERED BY THEIR BODIES WAS DUE PRIMARILY TO THE FACT THAT THEY WERE OFFICERS OF LOWER RANK. THEY USED BODIES WHICH WERE PARTIALLY BIOLOGICAL AND THEREFORE FAR LESS DURABLE AND RESILIENT THAN HERS.


(EDITOR'S NOTE: AT THIS POINT, THE TRANSCRIPT APPEARS TO RESUME WITH STATEMENTS MADE BY AIRL.)


ALTHOUGH THE DOMAIN WILL NOT HESITATE TO DESTROY ANY ACTIVE VESTIGES OF THE "OLD EMPIRE" OPERATIONS WHERE EVER THEY ARE DISCOVERED THIS IS NOT OUR PRIMARY MISSION IN THIS GALAXY. I AM SURE THAT THE "OLD EMPIRE" MIND-CONTROL MECHANISMS CAN BE DEACTIVATED AND DESTROYED EVENTUALLY. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO ESTIMATE HOW LONG THIS MAKE TAKE, AS WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE EXTENT OF THIS OPERATION AT THIS TIME.


WE DO KNOW THAT THE "OLD EMPIRE" FORCE SCREEN IS VAST ENOUGH TO COVER THIS END OF THE GALAXY, AT LEAST. WE ALSO KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE THAT EACH FORCE GENERATOR AND TRAPPING DEVICE IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DETECT, LOCATE AND DESTROY. ALSO, IT IS NOT THE CURRENT MISSION OF THE DOMAIN EXPEDITIONARY FORCE TO COMMIT RESOURCES TO THIS ENDEAVOR.


THE EVENTUAL DESTRUCTION OF THESE DEVICES MAY MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR YOUR MEMORY TO BE RESTORED, SIMPLY BY VIRTUE OF NOT HAVING IT ERASED AFTER EACH LIFETIME. FORTUNATELY, THE MEMORY OF AN IS-BE CANNOT BE PERMANENTLY ERASED.


THERE ARE MANY OTHER ACTIVE SPACE CIVILIZATIONS WHO MAINTAIN VARIOUS NEFARIOUS OPERATIONS IN THIS AREA, NOT THE LEAST OF WHICH IS DUMPING UNWANTED IS-BES ON EARTH. NONE OF THESE CRAFT ARE HOSTILE OR IN VIOLENT OPPOSITION TO THE DOMAIN FORCES. THEY KNOW BETTER THAN TO CHALLENGE US!


FOR THE MOST PART THE DOMAIN IGNORES EARTH AND ITS INHABITANTS, EXCEPT TO ENSURE THAT THE RESOURCES OF THE PLANET ITSELF ARE NOT PERMANENTLY SPOILED. THIS SECTOR OF THE GALAXY WAS ANNEXED BY THE DOMAIN AND IS THE POSSESSION OF THE DOMAIN, TO DO WITH OR DISPOSE OF AS IT DEEMS BEST. THE MOON OF EARTH AND THE ASTEROID BELT HAVE BECOME A PERMANENT BASE OF OPERATIONS FOR THE DOMAIN FORCES.


NEEDLESS TO SAY, ANY ATTEMPT BY HUMANS OR OTHERS TO INTERFERE IN THE ACTIVITIES OF THE DOMAIN IN THIS SOLAR SYSTEM - EVEN IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, WHICH IT DEFINITELY IS NOT - WILL BE TERMINATED SWIFTLY. THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS CONCERN, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, SINCE HOMO SAPIENS CANNOT OPERATE IN OPEN SPACE.


OF COURSE WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE NEXT STEPS OF THE DOMAIN EXPANSION PLAN WHICH HAS REMAINED ON SCHEDULE FOR BILLIONS OF YEARS. OVER THE NEXT 5,000 YEARS THERE WILL BE INCREASING TRAFFIC AND ACTIVITY OF THE DOMAIN FORCES AS WE PROGRESS TOWARD THE CENTER OF THIS GALAXY AND BEYOND TO SPREAD OUR CIVILIZATION THROUGH THE UNIVERSE.


IF HUMANITY IS TO SURVIVE, IT MUST COOPERATE TO FIND EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS TO THE DIFFICULT CONDITIONS OF YOUR EXISTENCE ON EARTH. HUMANITY MUST RISE ABOVE ITS HUMAN FORM AND DISCOVER WHERE THEY ARE, AND THAT THEY ARE IS-BES, AND WHO THEY REALLY ARE AS IS-BES IN ORDER TO TRANSCEND THE NOTION THAT THEY ARE MERELY BIOLOGICAL BODIES. ONCE THESE REALIZATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE, IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO ESCAPE YOUR CURRENT IMPRISONMENT. OTHERWISE, THERE WILL BE NO FUTURE FOR THE IS-BES ON EARTH.

 
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NO ACTIVE BATTLES OR WAR BEING WAGED BETWEEN THE DOMAIN AND THE "OLD EMPIRE", THERE STILL EXISTS THE COVERT ACTIONS OF THE "OLD EMPIRE" TAKEN AGAINST EARTH THROUGH THEIR THOUGHT CONTROL OPERATION.


WHEN ONE KNOWS THAT THESE THESE ACTIVITIES EXIST, THE EFFECTS CAN BE OBSERVED CLEARLY. THE MOST OBVIOUS EXAMPLES OF THESE ACTIONS AGAINST THE HUMAN RACE CAN BE SEEN AS INCIDENTS OF SUDDEN, INEXPLICABLE BEHAVIOR. A VERY RECENT INSTANCE OF THIS OCCURRED IN THE UNITED STATES MILITARY JUST BEFORE THE JAPANESE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR. 228 (FOOTNOTE)

 
JUST THREE DAYS BEFORE THE ATTACK, SOMEONE IN AUTHORITY ORDERED ALL THE SHIPS IN PEARL HARBOR TO GO INTO PORT AND SECURE FOR INSPECTION. THE SHIPS WERE ORDERED TO TAKE ALL THE AMMUNITION OUT OF THEIR MAGAZINES, AND STORE IT BELOW. ON THE AFTERNOON BEFORE ATTACK ALL OF THE ADMIRALS AND GENERALS WERE ATTENDING PARTIES, EVEN THOUGH TWO JAPANESE AIRCRAFT CARRIERS WERE DISCOVERED STANDING RIGHT OFF PEARL HARBOR.


THE OBVIOUS ACTION TO TAKE WOULD HAVE BEEN TO CONTACT PEARL HARBOR BY TELEPHONE TO WARN THEM OF THE DANGER OF A FIGHT STARTING AND TO PUT THE AMMUNITION BACK AND ORDER THE SHIPS TO GET OUT OF PORT INTO OPEN SEA.


ABOUT SIX HOURS BEFORE THE JAPANESE ATTACK BEGAN, A U.S. NAVY SHIP SANK A SMALL JAPANESE SUBMARINE RIGHT OUTSIDE THE HARBOR. INSTEAD OF CONTACTING PEARL HARBOR BY TELEPHONE TO REPORT THE INCIDENT, A WARNING MESSAGE WAS PUT INTO TOP SECRET CODE, WHICH TOOK ABOUT TWO HOURS TO ENCODE, AND THEN IT TOOK ANOTHER TWO HOURS TO DECODE.

 
THE WORD OF WARNING TO PEARL HARBOR DID NOT ARRIVE UNTIL 10:00 AM PEARL HARBOR TIME, SUNDAY - TWO HOURS AFTER THE JAPANESE ATTACK DESTROYED THE U.S. FLEET.


HOW DO THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPEN?


IF THE MEN WHO WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE OBVIOUSLY DISASTROUS ERRORS WERE STOOD UP AND ASKED BLUNTLY TO JUSTIFY THEIR ACTIONS AND INTENTIONS YOU WOULD FIND OUT THAT THEY WERE QUITE SINCERE IN THEIR JOBS. ORDINARILY, THEY DO THE VERY BEST THEY CAN DO FOR PEOPLE AND NATIONS. HOWEVER, ALL OF A SUDDEN, FROM SOME COMPLETELY UNKNOWN AND UNDETECTABLE SOURCE ENTERS THESE WILD, UNEXPLAINABLE SITUATIONS THAT JUST 'CAN'T EXIST'.


THE "OLD EMPIRE" THOUGHT CONTROL OPERATION IS RUN BY A SMALL GROUP OF OLD "BABOONS" WITH VERY SMALL MINDS. THEY ARE PLAYING INSIDIOUS GAMES WITH NO PURPOSE AND NO GOAL OTHER THAN TO CONTROL AND DESTROY IS-BES WHO COULD OTHERWISE MANAGE THEMSELVES PERFECTLY WELL, IF LEFT ALONE.


THESE TYPES OF ARTIFICIALLY CREATED INCIDENTS (AS RECENTLY) ARE BEING FORCED UPON THE HUMAN RACE BY THE OPERATORS OF THE MIND-CONTROL PRISON SYSTEM. THE PRISON GUARDS WILL ALWAYS PROMOTE AND SUPPORT OPPRESSIVE OR TOTALITARIAN ACTIVITIES OF IS-BES ON EARTH. WHY NOT KEEP THE INMATES FIGHTING BETWEEN THEMSELVES? WHY NOT EMPOWER MADMEN TO RUN THE GOVERNMENTS OF EARTH? THE MEN WHO RUN THE CRIMINAL GOVERNMENTS OF EARTH MIRROR THE COMMANDS GIVEN THEM BY COVERT THOUGHT-CONTROLLERS OF THE "OLD EMPIRE".


THE HUMAN RACE WILL CONTINUE TO SHADOW BOX WITH THIS FOR A LONG TIME - AS LONG AS IT REMAINS THE HUMAN RACE. UNTIL THEN, THE IS-BES ON EARTH WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE A SERIES OF CONSECUTIVE LIVES, OVER AND OVER AND OVER. THE SAME IS-BES WHO LIVED DURING THE RISE AND FALL OF CIVILIZATIONS IN INDIA, CHINA, MESOPOTAMIA, GREECE, AND ROME ARE INHABITING BODIES IN THE PRESENT TIME IN AMERICA, FRANCE, RUSSIA, AFRICA, AND AROUND THE WORLD.
 

IN BETWEEN EACH LIFETIME AN IS-BE IS SENT BACK AGAIN, TO BEGIN ALL OVER, AS THOUGH THE NEW LIFE WAS THE ONLY LIFE THEY HAD EVER LIVED. THEY BEGIN ANEW IN PAIN, IN MISERY, AND MYSTERY.


SOME IS-BES HAVE BEEN TRANSPORTED TO EARTH MORE RECENTLY THAN OTHERS. SOME IS-BES HAVE BEEN ON EARTH ONLY A FEW HUNDRED YEARS, SO THEY HAVE NO PERSONAL EXPERIENCES WITH THE EARLIER CIVILIZATIONS OF EARTH. THEY HAVE NO EXPERIENCES OF HAVING LIVED ON EARTH, SO COULD NOT REMEMBER A PREVIOUS EXISTENCE HERE, EVEN IF THEIR MEMORY WAS RESTORED. THEY MIGHT, HOWEVER, REMEMBER LIVES THEY LIVED ELSEWHERE ON OTHER PLANETS AND IN OTHER TIMES.
 

OTHERS HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE THE FIRST DAYS OF LEMURIA. IN ANY CASE, THE IS-BES OF EARTH ARE HERE FOREVER, UNTIL THEY CAN BREAK THE AMNESIA CYCLE, CONQUER THE ELECTRONIC TRAPS SET UP BY THEIR CAPTORS AND FREE THEMSELVES.


BECAUSE THE DOMAIN HAS THREE THOUSAND OF THEIR OWN IS-BES IN CAPTIVITY ON EARTH ALSO, THEY HAVE AN INTEREST IN SOLVING THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM HAS NEVER BEEN ENCOUNTERED OR EFFECTIVELY SOLVED BEFORE IN THE UNIVERSE, AS FAR AS THEY KNOW. THEY WILL CONTINUE THEIR EFFORTS TO FREE THOSE IS-BES FROM EARTH, WHERE AND WHEN IT IS POSSIBLE, BUT IT WILL REQUIRE TIME TO DEVELOP AN UNPRECEDENTED TECHNOLOGY AND THE DILIGENCE TO DO SO.'
 

(EDITOR'S NOTE: THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IS A COMMENT BY MATILDA.)


I THINK IT IS AIRL'S SINCERE DESIRE, AS ONE IS-BE TO ANOTHER, THAT THE REST OF OUR ETERNITY WILL BE AS PLEASANT AS POSSIBLE."

 
FOOTNOTES

227 "...POLITICAL, RELIGIOUS OR ECONOMIC EXPEDIENCY."
THE COMMON DENOMINATOR OF POLITICS, RELIGION AND ECONOMICS IS THAT THEY ARE EACH BASED ON VESTED INTERESTS.

-- THE EDITOR
SEE THE DEFINITION OF "VESTED INTEREST":

"1) A SURVIVAL OR NON-SURVIVAL PLAN OR AGENDA WHICH HAS BEEN "CLOTHED" TO MAKE IT SEEM LIKE SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT IT ACTUALLY IS.
2) ANY PERSON, GROUP OR ENTITY WHICH PREVENTS OR CONTROLS COMMUNICATION TO SERVE THEIR OWN PURPOSES, (PLANS OR AGENDA)."

228 "... JUST BEFORE THE JAPANESE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR... "
"THE ATTACK ON PEARL HARBOR WAS A SURPRISE ATTACK AGAINST THE UNITED STATES' NAVAL BASE AT PEARL HARBOR, HAWAII BY THE JAPANESE NAVY, AT 0800 HOURS ON THE MORNING OF SUNDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1941, RESULTING IN THE UNITED STATES BECOMING INVOLVED IN WORLD WAR II. HOSTILITIES BETWEEN THE U.S. AND JAPAN WERE EXPECTED BY MANY OBSERVERS, INCLUDING PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, WHO READ A DECRYPTED JAPANESE MESSAGE (ON DECEMBER 1ST, 1941) AND TOLD HIS ASSISTANT HARRY HOPKINS, "THIS MEANS WAR."


AT 03:42 HAWAIIAN TIME, HOURS BEFORE COMMANDING ADMIRAL CHUICHI NAGUMO BEGAN LAUNCHING STRIKE AIRCRAFT, THE MINESWEEPER USS CONDOR SPOTTED A MIDGET SUBMARINE OUTSIDE THE HARBOR ENTRANCE AND ALERTED DESTROYER USS WARD. WARD WAS INITIALLY UNSUCCESSFUL IN LOCATING THE TARGET. HOURS LATER, WARD FIRED AMERICA'S FIRST SHOTS IN THE PACIFIC THEATER OF WWII WHEN SHE ATTACKED AND SANK A MIDGET SUBMARINE, PERHAPS THE SAME ONE, AT 06:37.


CLOSER TO THE MOMENT OF THE ATTACK, THE ATTACKING PLANES WERE DETECTED AND TRACKED AS THEY APPROACHED BY AN ARMY RADAR INSTALLATION BEING OPERATED THAT MORNING AS A MOSTLY UNOFFICIAL TRAINING EXERCISE. THE OPANA POINT RADAR STATION, OPERATED BY TWO ENLISTED MEN (PVTS. LOCKARD AND ELLIOT) PLOTTED THE APPROACHING FORCE, AND THEIR RELIEF TEAM PLOTTED THEM RETURNING TO THE CARRIERS. THE INITIAL RADAR RETURNS WERE THOUGHT, BY THE ILL-TRAINED JUNIOR OFFICER (LT. KERMIT A. TYLER) IN CHARGE AT THE BARELY OPERATIONAL WARNING INFORMATION CENTER AT PEARL HARBOR, TO BE A FLIGHT OF AMERICAN BOMBERS EXPECTED FROM THE MAINLAND. IN FACT THOSE BOMBERS DID ARRIVE, FROM A SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT BEARING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ATTACK.


ADDITIONALLY, JAPANESE SUBMARINES WERE SIGHTED AND ATTACKED (BY USS WARD) OUTSIDE THE HARBOR ENTRANCE A FEW HOURS BEFORE THE ATTACK COMMENCED, AND AT LEAST ONE WAS SUNK—ALL BEFORE THE PLANES CAME WITHIN EVEN RADAR RANGE. THIS MIGHT HAVE PROVIDED ENOUGH NOTICE TO DISPERSE AIRCRAFT AND FLY OFF RECONNAISSANCE, EXCEPT, YET AGAIN, REACTIONS OF THE DUTY OFFICERS WERE TARDY. IT HAS BEEN ARGUED FAILURE TO FOLLOW UP ON DF BEARINGS SAVED USS ENTERPRISE. IF SHE HAD BEEN CORRECTLY DIRECTED, SHE MIGHT HAVE RUN INTO THE SIX CARRIER JAPANESE STRIKE FORCE.


AFTER THE ATTACK, THE SEARCH FOR THE ATTACK FORCE WAS CONCENTRATED SOUTH OF PEARL HARBOR, CONTINUING THE CONFUSION AND INEFFECTIVENESS OF THE AMERICAN RESPONSE.


ANOTHER ISSUE IN THE DEBATE IS THE FACT NEITHER ADMIRAL KIMMEL NOR GENERAL SHORT EVER FACED COURT MARTIAL. IT IS ALLEGED THIS WAS TO AVOID DISCLOSING INFORMATION CONSPIRATORS WOULD NOT WANT TO SEE MADE PUBLIC. WHEN ASKED, KIMMEL REPLIED, "WILL HISTORIANS KNOW MORE LATER? KIMMEL'S REPLY TO THIS WAS:'... I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I BELIEVE. I THINK THAT MOST OF THE INCRIMINATING RECORDS HAVE BEEN DESTROYED.... I DOUBT IF THE TRUTH WILL EVER EMERGE.'..." IT IS EQUALLY, PROBABLY MORE, LIKELY THIS WAS DONE TO AVOID DISCLOSING THE FACT JAPANESE CODES WERE BEING READ, GIVEN THERE WAS A WAR ON."
