Ufology Research

As noted on UFO Updates, in an interview with the Guardian, Julian Assange hints at some documents that mention UFOs.

Mr Assange, have there ever been documents forwarded to you which deal with the topic of UFOs or extraterrestrials?

Julian Assange: Many weirdos email us about UFOs or how they discovered that they were the anti-christ whilst talking with their ex-wife at a garden party over a pot-plant. However, as yet they have not satisfied two of our publishing rules.
1) that the documents not be self-authored;
2) that they be original.
However, it is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the cablegate archive there are indeed references to UFOs.

OK, so I sympathize with Assange on this one. He must get reams of stuff from conspiracy theorists and contactees about government/alien contact. He also must get copies of UFO-related docs found by Stan Friedman or John Greenwald (Black Vault), sent by UFO buffs. It's interesting that researchers like Friedman or Greenwald or Grant Cameron (or Lawrence Fawcett or Barry Greenwood or...) have already done a great job of finding and releasing UFO-related government docs.

So what's in the cables? Well, we already have dozens of diplomatic cables that were found to contain comments about UFOs. One example: UFOs in Iran, noted by a Defense correspondent:


So, a cable about UFOs wouldn't be really surprising, unless it contained some really spectacular information. And judging from Assange's comment, whatever he has isn't Earth-shattering.

But it could be interesting.
