A Ufological Interview
Over at Binnall of America, you can find a new interview with former British Ministry of Defense UFO investigator, Nick Pope.
In the interview, Pope is asked by Richard Thomas if the famous Rendlesham Forest incident of 1980 could have been a psy-op rather than a UFO event. Here’s the exchange:
Richard Thomas: “Perhaps the most interesting case you have been associated with is that of the 1980 Rendlesham Forest incident in Suffolk, England. Jacques Vallee has suggested that this may have been some kind of psyop, pointing out that the American soldiers who went out to investigate the UFO that night were told to leave their guns behind. What do you think of this theory?”
Nick Pope: “As much as I respect Jacques Vallee, the psyop theory is extremely unlikely to explain the Rendlesham Forest incident. I worked at the Ministry of Defence for 21 years. One of my jobs involved working closely with the Defence Intelligence Staff, while my final post was in a security-related job. If this had been a psyop, there is absolutely no way that the authorities would have allowed a paper trail to be generated in the way that it was. The affair would have been allowed to play itself out, but the moment people started putting things in writing, those running the psyop would have had a quiet word and stopped anything from being committed to paper. Any documents had had slipped through the net would have been quietly withdrawn.”
The interview covers a lot of ground, and here’s the link to the rest of it.

As the American soldiers were going out to investigate on UK soil it’s quite normal they should have had to leave their guns behind. Firearms, in the sense that US citizens can hold them, aren’t allowed in the UK.
