Amazone beat it all in Frischgebakten and Eltern in the Logistik Center in Ex...

So, we're at it. The Gerade is a new Borene tochter in the Amheld. Your glutes are for you, the schönste Geräusch der Welt. That means, it's like that Geräusch, the schönste von Eln. The document that we're provided on thread 3, this is a huge file.

How in the world did you smuggle this out of Russia?

Carefully, gain your socks? I don't think I want to be really specific about it because I might have to go back there and get some more sometimes. You took a couple trips to Russia and it was during Glasnos in Perestroika. There was an openness and you got in contact with the leads, the heads of the UFO programs out there. But also people that were heads of strategic air defense and spheric, serious Soviet Union,

military individuals who opened up to you. And it seemed like it was a window of opportunity to see what the Russians know about UFOs. And really, I did say, from that point, we might learn more from the Russians about what the US government knows than the US government is ever going to admit. This is weaponized.

I'm George Napier and Las Vegas joined by my friend and colleague Jeremy Corbyl. Jeremy, how's your day going?

It's great man doing a lot of other work rather than UAP, but man, really excited today to talk with you about what we're talking about.

And hopefully show people something they haven't seen before as well. Well, I guess Russia, Russia documents, Russia UFO programs. We've been talking about them for a long time on weaponized. I've reported it over the years at spoken about it in public.

But until that congressional hearing in September of 2025, I'd never really made public all the documents,

at least not the bulk of the documents. You know, I'm not sure how it went over with the congressional folks. They didn't publish them. I didn't really expect them to do that. I'm not sure that they know what to do with them at all, but I figured, well, they haven't made them public.

I'm going to go ahead and do it because they're out there. You know, so mystery wire.

My site at Kaleas, the site, which is a kind of an accumulation of all the stories I've done on UFOs and other mysteries over the years has been revived.

They've got me doing a little talk show that promotes it. They're reorganizing the old content. We're adding new content, full raw interviews. And a figure that would be a good spot to kick it off. And these documents would get a lot of attention that way.

So that's why we put them up.

The first two documents that is.

Let me back up a little bit just for our audience, which is back in the early 90s. You took a couple trips to Russia and it was during Glassnose and Perestroika. And there was an openness. And you got in contact with the leads, the heads of the UFO programs out there. But also people that were heads of like strategic air defense and very serious,

Soviet Union, military individuals who opened up to you because they didn't fear death and murder at the time about UFOs. And very famously, you smuggled back classified Russian documents about the UFO program. How they were dealing with the UFO thing. And something you said to me many times you and me having a beer in your kitchen over the last decade or so. You're like, man, these documents taught us more about our American UFO exploitation reverse engineering programs.

Then we even knew by reading the Russian or Soviet Union documents. So for our audience to kind of just understand that that was one thing that you did in your journalism career. And you also did many people in the intelligence agency have said to me, you did a solid for America. You pass those on to the intelligence agencies to basically look at and translate and try to figure out what's going on. And what's inside those documents is astonishing like what we learned about what Russia thinks about UFOs and how they created defenses against Russia against the UFOs.

Like, not shooting them down because of, you know, their capabilities. So that's the background to this. Now the other part of the background is that when you were asked to testify in front of Congress, one of the things you testified to was this trip to Russia, what you brought back and what's in the documents. Now you gave a button of these documents, you know, to Congress.

But yeah, there's so much in there. It's hard to wrap your head around.

They never ended up publishing those.

That was kind of what you put in that you would publish like after they didn't do it. I think it's just too much.

There's too many balls in the air.

So you then you all of a sudden say, I'm going to put out everything I can right now in sections as much as I can.

You got to go through it, get it all set up on the news.

And that's what you did. And it's people have noticed that a bunch of reporters have been calling me.

Being like, he finally put them all out.

I'm like, yeah, he's reported on them before. But now you get to see them. So that should get our audience up to date. Big moves last week from a journalistic patriotic standpoint of let's get this information to the American public. Is that accurate?

What I just said. Yeah, so you know, I'd been working on the UFO stuff since 1987 in 1989. We put out this massive series based on an inspired by Bob Lazar and his story. And you know, I had the fever for sure. So I'm looking for new ideas and new projects to tackle in addition to the things that we're already on my plate.

And I saw this article in the New York Times about the KGB had made public its files on Leigh Harvey Oswald.

And I thought, wow, you know, there's all these changes.

The Berlin Wall had come down Gorbachev who instituted all these changes broke up. The USSR then resigned Boris Yeltsin was elected president of Russia in a democratic election. A lot of change in the air. And it seemed like it was a window of opportunity to see what the Russians know about UFOs. And really, I did say, from that point, we might learn more from the Russians about what the US government knows.

Then the US government is ever going to admit and that's exactly what happened. We did find all that stuff out. We met a Russian physicist who is in the US to lecture on disarmament issues, nuclear disarmament issues at US national labs. And his name was Dr. Nikolay Caprenov. And the last stop on his trip to the US was Las Vegas.

There was a congressman Jim Billbrey who was a good guy who helped me on this UFO issue behind the scenes and continued to do so who heard about Nikolay. And so you might meet this guy. He has high security clearances. He'd been the national security advisor to the Russian Parliament. He'd been national security advisor to Boris Yeltsin.

He had helped train Russian cosmonauts. How to spot US nuclear submarines from space. He was styled in. So he comes to Las Vegas. I go meet him for a beer. We're having a conversation and I bring up the UFO topic. You know, anything about UFOs, if you ever heard any UFO studies or documents, things like that.

So now not really. We have another beer and he says, you know, now that you think about, I think about it.

There was a KGB guy who talked about UFOs and I'm sort of a little investigation that they were doing. And you know, I ask him, well, do you think there's anybody else you might be able to make contact with? We're interested in pursuing that. I don't want to get anybody in trouble. But if it really is, glass nose, Paris strike, openness, transparency in the new Russia.

Maybe some people would talk to me. I told him, here's the parameters, though. I don't want to talk to anybody who's ever made public statements about UFOs before. I don't want to have any UFO authors. Nobody who's head of a UFO organization.

You know, going to UFO conferences, which they did start having in the Soviet Union. U.S.S.R. and so look for folks who have not made any statements at all, but who were in a position to know. He says, okay. So I was working for a company called Altamera, separate from KLS at the time. And our idea was we're going to start producing a series of UFO documentaries that would tackle different aspects of the mystery. This would be a great one if it works out.

We gave him a stipend every month to keep him alive. He didn't have a job when he went back there. And he started looking and it took about eight months for him to find the right people. He would send us these faxes that updated us on the people that he'd talked to.

And Nikolai finally got to the point where I think we're ready.

Why don't you guys come over? So we needed to get an invitation. And it was one of their Academy of Sciences. The International Academy of Natural Sciences headed by a guy named Admiral Perumov, who set us the invitation. We go over there and we've got to work. And Nikolai had successfully opened the doors to all of these people who had been in a position to know about vast Russian studies of UFOs and programs and military applications.

And we went to town and it was amazing.

And although the documents are now released. The real value for what we got in Russia and that first trip in 1993 were the interviews. The interviews with these key people who were it charge of these studies who knew about not only what the Russians knew, but they had extensive information about what the Americans have been doing behind the scenes. The KGB has opened some of its files to Western researchers and journalists.

But what do Russians know about UFOs? It was assumed by Western ufologists that the Soviets were experiencing the same type of UFO encounters as the rest of the world. But isolated incidents were all outsiders heard about it.

Right.

there were dedicated satellites and they knew the number of them that were specifically tasked to track UFOs,

in the upper atmosphere, satellite platforms to recon and do ISR on UFOs. Is that correct and do you know anything more about that or?

Yeah. So what are the guys we talked to? Was a Dr. Ramili Abramenko. He was working on the Russian version of SDI of space-based weapons anti-Satellite weapons.

He had never spoken to a journalist Russian or American ever before.

He lived in one of these secret Russian cities that's kind of off the map. And we got permission to talk to him. He comes forward. He has on the desk this little desk top-sized plasma weapon. I think you probably seen a little club of video and it's like a crazy... Yeah, he puts a razor blade on top of it. Press this button, this blue plastic look and thing, and it burned a hole in it like instantly. This is what we're working on. We call it the weapon of the aliens and we're trying to demonstrate this and have full scale weapon systems that we can use in the future.

And who says UFO data has been incorporated into Russian beam weapon research.

But he had told me he knew about UFOs from 1959 on. He'd been part of the Russian space program.

He says we had satellites up there. Could see these things coming in and out.

We know after you guys got satellites up there that you could see him too, meaning the Americans knew all about it.

Just unlike the Russians, he says who have a passive collection system, getting information about UFOs. The Americans had devoted specific resources, satellites, radar systems and other sensors, to specifically collect information about UFOs, figuring we have to know a great deal and we're pretending that we did not. A lot of the things that happen in Russia were similar to what happened here. In 1947, Roswell happens. Well, of course, Roswell's the only atomic bombing in the world.

And of course, Russians had spies all over the place out there. So when something crashes outside of Roswell and it gets in the press, it's a spaceship or it's a weather balloon. They had agents on the ground and Stalin, Joseph Stalin, the dictator of Russia, assigned this to a couple of his people, find out what the heck went on there. What crashed outside of Roswell?

The guy he picked to head that job was a guy named Coraluv, who was the father of the Russian space program. He built rockets. He was the guy who helped them get ahead of the U.S. in space. And he, a Stalin calls him in, tells Coraluv, hey, I need you to find out what's going on over there. Coraluv comes back. He checks with special sources, meaning Russian spies to find out what they knew. It comes back and tells Stalin, it wasn't a weather balloon.

We think it's from somewhere else. It's something. It wasn't American craft. It's from somewhere else.

And Stalin says, yeah, that's why I've heard from other people too.

So that was a really big deal. And in 1947, Stalin and the people around him knew this was real. It was from somewhere else. But they ordered starting from 53 on the Russian government said, this is a propaganda tool. It's made up by the Americans. We're not going to fall for it. Don't talk about UFOs. Nobody supposed to publish papers. Don't pay any attention to it.

Or you'll be in trouble. And from then on publicly, at least, it was kind of a forbidden topic. But behind the scenes, they had these scientists who were signed to work on it. And they would give briefings to Russian officials, the military, Ministry of Defense, KGB, assuming and tell them what they were working on and how much they knew. One of those guys who was named Yuri Fomene. He was like the father of Russian uphology. He actually did prison time because he spoke about UFOs in public.

Even though he was still working behind the scenes, briefing the Russian government about what was going on. We interviewed him. I'm sure he's gone now. He was pretty old when we talked to him in 1993.

But that's never been seen. There was another guy named Burlamov who has mentioned in the thread three documents that we're going to talk about now.

His job was going out to UFO landing sites and looking for evidence. And they would study the soil samples. He saw remarkable chemical composition changes in the dirt where these things set down. Again, I've never released that information yet, but someday we're going to have to put that out. You know, as amazing how many Russians had really been taking this seriously for a long time, outside of the government and inside the government. And then we found Colonel Borosakilov, who was, he was the mother load.

We get invited to his home, a very modest home. They were so gracious to us. He and his wife serve in us all this food. I know it had to cost him like a mud salary or something. Whatever his pension was and opened up. And it's not like he's selling out his country or something or violating state secrets.

That was the sort of the atmosphere then is it was free for Russians to talk ...

He was the head of the Ministry of Defense's study of UFOs, which I suspect was the largest investigation of UFOs in history, world history.

And the order came out and I think in 1977 there was its incident at a Russian missile facility called Petrosovatsk.

And the government explained that it's some kind of a rocket that blew up, but it wasn't because of that incident. This very dramatic and well-known incident, they started this secret study. In 1978, it kicks off. It lasts for ten full years. The order goes out to every unit in the vast Soviet military empire, everyone. You see a UFO, a strange ball of light, an odd craft in the sky. Something that seems to be related to UFOs or space mysteries, every incident has to be investigated, every witness has to give a statement, any physical evidence, any photos or film.

It all goes to one place, and that place was Colonel Boris Sokolov's desk.

Thousands and thousands and thousands of reports came in. He got to see him all.

Some of them would go to KGB first and then on to him, so who knows what kind of really good cases that KGB kept to itself.

But it all went to Sokolov and he told us about what had happened. Some of the most dramatic incidents are related to these documents we just made public. One being an incident at a ICBM base that was in Ukraine in 1982. Sokolov gets ordered, "Hey, get over here. Take your investigators with you. Something really big just happened." And that's the first document we released. There's all these witness statements.

At this ICBM base, describe UFOs that were over the and around the base for about four hours, doing incredible maneuvers,

stopping in midair, zipping off at incredible speeds, melding together, changing shapes, changing colors. They look different sizes and shapes doing all kinds of strange maneuvers, and all the witnesses who sign statements are officers at this base, this ICBM base. With the missiles, by the way, that were pointed at the US that could reach New York City and obliterate it in 25 minutes after they launch. And they said these UFOs were zipping around, we all saw them all over the place for a period of like four hours. At the end of that four hour period.

The launch control system inside this base lights up itself illumination and the Russians are going, "What the hell is going on here?" And then suddenly, something enters all the launch control codes.

This is not an EMP incident that just kind of makes it go haywire. It enters these codes, and it's a very specific codes that are in the document, the first one we release.

And these missiles are ready to go, and the Russians can't stop them. They're panicking. This is World War III about to happen, and suddenly the UFOs that had been over the base go away. The system goes back to normal, they all breathe a sigh of relief, sock a lot, and his team come in the next day, take the whole thing apart, can't figure out what happened. But they came away as the Colonel told us, his impression was the UFOs caused it, and there were sending some kind of a message, something along lines of these may be your most powerful weapons, but we can mess with them all we want.

The message was received. He also told us about 40 different incidents, I think I shared this with Congress, 40 incidents where Russians, the standing order was go after them.

You see, UFOs go get them, shoot them down, 40 times they go after them, they never shot down one, they think the UFOs were always zip away, but in three of those cases, the Russian pilots lost control and crashed, and two of those pilots died. So after that, the order went out, leave them alone. Just leave them alone because they may have formidable powers of retaliation, something along those lines. So I know this one because I was researching everything you did in Russia, it was general, it were a Maltsev himself, who is the former head of the Soviet air defense. I think that's the guy that is quoted as saying they have incredible capacities for retaliation UFOs do.

And I interviewed him, I met him in the second trip when I went back to Russia in 1996, I met and interviewed him for a project, another project, and yeah, he said, yeah, that's true. So I mean, I was able to obtain these thousands and thousands of reports and documents related to that program, which I think was called Seta, that was a big score. Subsequently, meet a guy who is involved in something even more significant, through a three. That program had existed almost as long as the other program, different versions of it had been carried out, and thread three was sort of the culmination, it was supposed to end, I think, in 1995.

They were doing analysis of everything that we knew, they had in that documen...

following the public discussion of ufos to publications, they knew more about American ufology and American UFO cases than maybe Americans do, they've been following pretty closely, and that had started with an order from Stalin and was still underway. And you know, why are they doing this? Well, it's the same reason we're doing it, you know, to figure out the technology, it's the same thing that the uf task force that awesome for doing, how can we figure this out and how can we build our own except they were doing it 30 years before we did.

You know, you look at it, they said, over and over, the Russian high-ranking Russians who had been in these programs and scientists to work with them and defense capacities, saying, we have no doubt that this stuff is real.

We're telling our government, our our public, pay no attention to it, it's American propaganda, and just as the Americans are telling our public here, it's not a threat to national security, it's all bogus, don't pay an attention to it, that's move on. Same thing. So you mentioned thread 3 and I want to kind of drill in on this because out of all, out of everything that you brought back from Russia and everything that was input into our intelligence community and I know I have specific direct knowledge that the entirety of what you brought back was input onto classified servers and it's been looked at one of the things that I was warned that like that is the most dangerous thing and I don't understand it.

It was thread 3. So what is thread 3 exactly and why would I be told by intelligence agencies that that's the most kind of dangerous for national security? Why?

What is thread 3 exactly? Why is that like I remember you and I were in a hotel room one time and you brought up a couple things and one was thread 3 and it was touchy. So I want to know what is it about thread 3?

Well, there are a couple of things that probably were disturbing to our government. One is just how much time and work the Russians have put into this, they were really serious.

As Colonel Sokolov had said, look, it's very simple. We see UFOs do all this stuff that we can't do that you can't do. You Americans can't do it.

In terms of you can see something on radar, but not visually see something visually, but not on radar. You can see it do it credible maneuvers at incredible speeds. We can't do it. You Americans can't do it.

We knew if we studied it and could figure out the technology, we'd kick your ass in terms of stealth. We'd jump ahead of you.

So it was a very practical reason. They wanted to figure out how these things flew and analyze it and build their own thread 3 was sort of the culmination of all the effort that had gone in in the decades before. All the information that was collected by the studies by Colonel Sokolov's nationwide information process that put all these cases and all these incidents. Some of them were very dramatic into the hands of thread 3 and they analyzed it, they analyzed the Russian info, they analyzed American info, and they're trying to get ahead of us and do it in a very practical way.

It's spelled out very clearly several points in that document, the report that we made public, they wanted to build their own. They knew these things, these UFOs were over there from could disable planes, knockout radar, had tremendous effects on mechanical gear, military gear. They needed to know how that works. So if the Russians were 30 years ahead of us, back then, imagine where they are now. So yeah, I'm sure it's right in the hell out of some American intelligence analysts who read it. Yeah, this brings us kind of today again, Chris Sharp of Liberation Times did this huge article about Pax River and how the facility there was fit and ready to hold UAP, whether it held them or not, like let's see the evidence of that.

I know for a fact that $10 million was spent on that facility specifically to fit it to house flying saucers or UAP, that is to the best of my knowledge, and I'm sure you know more probably can't say more, but he did that article. Now, now that that is out and by the way, Luel is on to mention that when he testified to Congress and he did his written form and he ascended in afterwards, I'm not breaking that news, Pax River's supposed location of a $10 million facility made a skiff made to hold UAP UFOs.

I know a lot of people that you know are probably involved in that, but ultimately, if we're trying to reverse engineer and we're trying to house them, it's an interesting location that they brought that up, like it could bring things along the river or by air and store them there, are you willing to say anything about the U.S. attempts on reverse engineering and Pax River? No, come on man, this is like, I'm interviewing LaCatsky here. Come on, tell me something. No, I know what you mean and I know the people you're referring to who would know something about that, but really it's not something that I can share is because of confidentiality stuff that promises that I made, if I can get the permission to go ahead and talk about it from those folks, I will, but I can't right now.

There's meat on that bone on Chris Sharp's article.

I think that's an intriguing angle to pursue. And the fact that Louis Alazado shares something similar, we know another guy who was directly involved in it, securing funding for that facility, and I think there's meat on that bone. So different than the big low aerospace creating that multimillion dollar facility that could house hardware. This, it seems like it was a later attempt to create a facility to bring the UFO materials and craft to Pax River.

Now, I know, I think that's a developing story. And I think Chris Sharp is one person that will be on that and continue on that.

But kind of backing up for one second here.

If you had to summarize in bullet points, George, like your exploits into Russia, which you probably can never go back.

But your exploits there bring them back documents, which is funny to get hacked by Russia after you test by the Congress, by the way, which George did. But when you summarize, what did Russia know about UFOs and what did Russia know about the US and our engagement and desire to reverse engineered. It's like a bullet point list. Can you just simplify it for me? Well, the Russians knew what we know. These things are from somewhere else. They're far more advanced than us. They come and go at their will. There's nothing we can do about it.

They land. There were a number of landings that are referenced in this document. There are materials that were acquired by the Russians and studied. There were dramatic incidents where they disabled people and equipment.

Russian officers frozen from beams of light.

There were dramatic incidents that challenged Russia's sense of safety because of what UFOs were able to do to their weapon systems, including nuclear weapons. They knew that whoever gets that technology and duplicates it first, they win. As we've said about the US programs that are trying to do the same thing, they know these are from somewhere else. They're not us. They're not Americans, they're not Russians, they're not Chinese, certainly not back then. They're from somewhere else and it's real. And they have no question about that.

Their government, of course, lies to their people along the same line to our government, continues to lie to our people. And they were trying to figure it out and they're still trying to figure it out. Those programs are ongoing and it's serious. And we need to acknowledge it and admit it and think admit it to our own people one of these days, so we can open this up. Bring more minds into it to take a look at the information and the materials and the craft that we already have and figure this out.

It sounds like you have more of the Russian documents that you can and will really say, "I know it's a lot of information to put out new using the news and KLS to do the reports and make it so that people can really understand it." I know it's a lot to even go through them and figure out what to put out, meaning just like making sense of it all.

And my question is to like, why release those now compared to releasing them 30 years ago?

Well, the reason I went to Russia is because I worked for this company. They had given, been given cart blanche to produce UFO films and documentaries. And I collected enough material for 12 different projects that I was writing and outlining. Russia was going to be one of them. We produced three of those films before all to mirror the company.

Myself, Brian Gresh, Brian Blackburn, the two guys that went with me to Russia on the first trip. And the intention was to make this self-supporting so we continued the research. We continued work, investigated reporting on this really strange topic and and keep it going. And then after we came back from Russia, I mean, we spent about $100,000 on that trip. And we wanted to get it back.

It's a very selfish kind of a thing, but the plan was always to release it.

And then the company kind of folded. And we had a disagreement on what else, what was going to be happening with all this material we collected. Not only the Russian stuff, but other trips around the world for other documentary projects that never got made. A 20 years go by and there's no 25 years go by. And there's no progress.

We can't agree on what to do with this stuff, the three partners. So it just sat there. You know, I was able to report it in different mediums on television and and did public presentations.

But ultimately, always wanted to make a film or two films.

There's enough probably for three films and recoup. Well, we spend on it. That was just, I know it's selfish, but now I don't know when I'm ever going to have time to do something like that. So I'm going to share the information by do hope that someday I can produce the documentary films that I had in mind. Because there are hours and hours of interviews that have never been seen anywhere.

Yeah, I mean, also, like documentaries are a way to unpack and explain stuff.

And you know, I don't think it's selfish. I think you went there. You put everything on the line and you're trying to translate it out to the public.

But, you know, times have changed because now you testified in front of Congress and this was a part of your testimony.

And you gave our federal government these documents and because maybe it was too much to absorb, they didn't put it out. So now you're doing it in these packages, which is so cool to see that I'm learning stuff every time I see that. You get it, like, send me a text when you launch something. Sometimes I don't even know. I'm like, I didn't know who's going to put that out. It's been awesome. It sounds like you have more and you're going to continue doing it. Like the thread three documents that you put those out yet, or planning to post it a week ago.

The main one, the main overview report. There's so much stuff in there. I just back people are not actually reading it. They're happy. It's out. And they like to read little blurbs on it or something or listen to somebody with a sound bite, talk about it. But I don't, I'm not sure how many people are actually reading it. It's that. It's that. I mean, it's that. But what I want to tell you is that you don't want to get a lot of students.

The Master by Tag Laptop is a soft hand, the internet. It's a master's real name. I'm saying, you can say, you can say that. Yeah, you're a master, right? But you don't understand it.

The first thing you can do is to make the whole thing like this.

And if you then do it, you will be able to do it. -That's right. -Save. Like this. -You can do it. -Now it's time to try it.

Once you've done it, you'll need an example.

That's right. It's a lot to do. Stop. It's the recruiting game. With Stepstown All Jobs, you'll be able to do it for one year. In one package, to a fixed price, so let's start with about 75% cost. And in every time, it's flexible.

Now let's start with Stepstown.de/alljobs. Stepstown, easy to find talents for all jobs. We had a translation, we hired these Russians. To translate it, they're not military people. So the form we got it back, it was facts to us all in this big compilation.

There's some errors. It doesn't look like an official report. Because it's not the actual original documents. It's a translation. But man, there's so much stuff in there. Russian cosmonauts. They were way ahead of us in the space race.

Gagarin and others who went into space first, so UFOs. And they talked about it, to the Russian government. And some of those statements filtered out to the public. And they're included in there. Pretty dramatic instances. There are specific titles such as this one, this pays.

It's not only about planes crashing, but they disappeared. They had Russian aircraft that banished when they were chasing UFOs. They had lending cases. They had crashes. The second trip I made in 1996. I went to this lovely little garden spot called Down the Gors.

Up there, Red China and North Korea. And there had been a crash there on what they called height 611. Hill 611 scattered all kinds of materials. Oh, the little is hillside. Burn trees and plants and rocks.

And I brought back some of those samples. The metals itself from this craft, whatever it was, were set to national Academy of Sciences. Different ones who studied it. A couple of conclusions came out.

But the materials were never seen again.

They stashed them somewhere else. You know, there's a lot of stuff packed in there. And people, if they read it, you can spend a lot of time going through it. Because there's so much of it that is parallel to events that have happened here in the US that our government has tried to dump on and discredit.

Yeah, I mean, people can read it or not read it. But we will report on it on weaponized following your news reports.

But I think breaking it down and really explaining to people what these documents are,

why they're important. You're doing a great job of that. And I think it's a service because, yeah, everybody does read. Bottom line is that the public was never supposed to see any of this. It's a secret.

They don't want you to know. And the core of that secret is that it's, okay, there's technology, we're reverse engineering.

The core of the secret is we are not alone.

And that is, I think, always been the thing that has been tried to be hidden from from human beings, from humanity within the press. That's the biggest secret of all time. If it is true, it definitely seems true, sitting where I'm sitting.

And I think our worldview may have to evolve to acknowledge and include the presence of advanced non-human intelligence engaging humanity. If that is the case, and I do believe now, that is the case. If they can manipulate our nuclear weapons on a global scale. And maybe, you know, there's a sense of a driving human evolution

and ingenuity to new heights. Our last guest on the show was Neo, you know,

The pilot Neo from the Thunderbirds.

And here this really powerful thought,

if you go back and watch the episode for people,

here this powerful thought that the UFO presence, like Jacques Valle, has said, is engaging our imagination from a sense of self-defense of how to be evolving with our technology. And it's just such a cool positive standpoint,

rather than just, we need to defend ourselves.

You have always been here a long time.

They haven't nuked the planet. You know, maybe there's something diabolical and sinister happening. But at this point, we just need to admit it. Like Commander Fraver says, you know, like being an alcoholic, you got to tell you can deal with it,

and UFOs are the same way. So I had this, I did a radio show Sunday night, close to coast with Robert Hastings and a friend of his name, Richard Barth, a new witness who's come forward. He was at Vendedburg Air Force Base,

1964, as a security police officer, guarding a minute-man missile, and he had an abduction experience, and he communicated with these beings. And the message is pretty positive.

It's kind of similar to alienatorials that other people around the world have heard. Look, we're here to check this out. In case we need to step in, and you guys try to nuk the whole planet and blow it up.

We're not going to let that happen. We care about the planet. We care about you guys. There are other non-human intelligence

that's here that don't have your best interest in mind,

but look, we're trying to help you. We're not trying to scare you. And, you know, the same thing has happened here in our nuclear missile bases over and over. We're disabled, taking off line,

a demonstration of their technology, or maybe there's practicing, in case they really need to step in and keep us from turning the Earth into a center. I'd like to believe that's true. I don't know if it is, but it was certainly sincere.

The Russian documents that I brought back, I wanted somebody else to know. Maybe I lose them. Maybe there's a fire. Maybe somebody breaks into my house and steals them,

which has happened before. And so I shared them with a couple of people that I really trust in the UFO field who had been to Russia. And then I shared them with some of them with nids,

which was the precursor to Ossap and Bass. They asked me for permission to enter it into the DIA's database, so they could study it. And they'd go, yeah, please. I had hired regular Russian citizens to help me translate them.

But it needed the expertise of intelligence analysts, like Jim LeCatsky and Colin Keller,

and the people that they hired to work with Bass.

And they put together an amazing report

that the public has never seen analyzing

what the thread three documents mean and where we should go from here. And I hope someday that it gets released, but at least they had it. And get figure out how important it was

to national security. And I know they've shared it elsewhere in the intelligence community. I'm glad to that. I'm glad that my country knows

what the Russians are up to. I think that was necessary. Yeah, I mean, you did that internally back then. I think that's really important. But also, I mean, look, you've given it for Congress

for congressional record. And I'm just really glad they're coming out. People had asked since the hearing because your testimony was impactful. People wanted to hear what it is

that you have experienced over all these decades. And it's different when you, once you testify that you can just put this stuff out to the public. So I'm excited.

I got three kind of news points to end the show, but I'm wondering, you know, is there anything you want to say about your exploits to Russia

bringing those documents back? Smug things. This documents back. I hadn't really thought about it. I didn't know we were going

to get classified material.

They were that first trip.

I hoped that we would get interviews and talk about classified programs. But I had no idea that we'd get this cache of very sensitive documents and hadn't really thought about how to get them out.

But back then, at least, I don't read Russian, but our Russian interpreters were able to help navigate the documents.

And they would stamp these things at that time on the front page. They stamped it, that indicated the security clearance level. And I realized, well, look,

if I just take the top pages off these documents, I'll just throw the rest of them the bulk of the reports into my suitcase. And that's what I did. And that we decided that

the morning we were leaving Moscow. And if you've ever been to Moscow, you've got to go through like five or six checkpoints before you ever get on the plane. There was some tense moments there.

There was some tense moments. I mean, I would still be there. Yeah, yeah. You didn't give us, which is good.

But, you know, we've had very serious meetings with federal agencies in controlled environments about what you brought back. We know that within the federal government,

within these intelligence agencies, that these documents are kind of like revered. I'm not saying you were a spy, but you went over there and dealt with some stuff and brought stuff back.

So I'm just saying that within the federal agencies and people we have spoken with in controlled environments,

It is well understood that what you brought back

is gold, that it was so important to the American understanding

of what Russia knew about these UAP programs. Now, fast-forwarding where we are now. You know, there seems to be a sort of alliance between many countries on keeping this hash hash. No one's going to disclose it.

Remember, when Canada, there was that internal kind of memo from Larry McGuire and he's saying, "If we don't get ahead of this with the five eyes, you know, materials program. If we don't get ahead of this, then we're not going to be trusted

by our people, by our country."

And so I think that the tides have kind of shifted now.

All the evidence is there. The question is, "Is everybody going to fast up on the fundamentals?" As our front bobbles are, would say, "Everybody should know, you oppose a real."

He goes, "Everybody should know that there's non-human technology." He goes, "I was inside a one. I know it's real." Maybe we shouldn't go further. That fundamental aspect should be told to everybody. Do you still agree with that idea

before we go into the last things of this episode? Do you feel like our government should fast up about our exploits to reverse engineer and the existence of UAP?" Yeah, I think so.

I mean, there's a limit. No, there's a red line. You don't want to cross. I don't think you want to tip your hand off how much progress we've made.

But in an acknowledgement, I guess it would have to be the president and an acknowledgement. Hey, this phenomenon is real. We don't know where it's from. We're working on it.

We can't tell you more because in national security concerns. We could really get ourselves in a pickle if we say too much, but trust us for now,

we're going to really open up our resources and not make it so secret and try to figure this stuff out. Something like that.

You know, ultimately, we don't know what the truth is.

I don't think you know anybody who knows for sure where all these non-human people are from, how long they've been here, what their goals are, what their timeline is. Is this all a hologram?

An experiment? We don't know. There might be some really disturbing truths down the road. But for now, you could acknowledge a secret

that everybody already knows. We know this is real. The public knows it's real. They want to know why that government keeps lying to them.

Why organizations like Arrow are created to do counterintelligence and lie? You know, it's not working. The thing is, the times are tumultuous here now.

There's so much, there's a new crisis every day. There's a gigantic headline. We saw our friend James Fox have a news conference at the National Press Club last week,

announces these amazing things

about the Virginia case, brings in all these witnesses from Brazil who testify and it's the same day that President Trump gives a two-hour rambling speech

and it gets covered by all the major media. And I'm not sure how much coverage James got other than UFO circles. Every day is some new crisis. Manyapolis, the giant storm,

the ice actions across America. There's a new crisis every day. And it takes away time. I'm not sure what impact the announcement would have

or when it would be for tourists to go ahead and make a statement like that. But yeah, I'd support it. I just want to say one last thing about the Russians. So in 1993, we were there.

It was an amazing time. I mean, yeah, the window had opened. There was a window of opportunity to speak with Russians about what they could talk about at that point.

And we did. But while we were there, Boris Yeltson seized control of the broadcast air waves. There were troops around the Russian Parliament

on the day we left. There were giant demonstrations in Red Square. There were pro-communists on one side.

We liked the old regime. And there were pro-democracy people on the other. And troops and police in between.

It was an amazing time to be there.

And the Russians were trying to embrace democracy and capitalism at the same time. Find their way. And it was exciting. And they were so generous and open.

And they were so curious about Americans. It was just a wonderful time to be there. And just love the people that we met. They were just great. Years later, I go back and it had changed.

You know, in three years. Putin was on the rise. Everybody was nervous. All of the people that we interviewed. Three years earlier.

Pretended like we didn't exist. Wouldn't talk to us. Wouldn't go on camera. Wouldn't you take a phone call. They were scared.

And they had a right to be. You know. And I'm not sure that there'll ever be a time like that or opportunity. Again, to go to Russia.

To find out more about what they know. So it was really for two of us that we were able to get in and get out. Absolutely, man.

And you know, I think you've got a lot of footage.

Or try to put some of that footage in this episode. So people can see kind of. If we can find that footage of the dude hitting that thing with the laser beam on. I found. I released it.

It's out there.

Yeah.

Yeah. It'll be great. So I've got like just four kind of news points at the end of the show today.

First of all, I have been lagging on responding to people over years with weaponized because

it's just we get inundated hundreds of thousands of emails. No human being can do it. You and I can't do it. But through a little help in my friend, AI, my buddy, how. I've been able to analyze a whole bunch of the emails that have come in.

And so people will be getting responses soon. There are individual cases seen by very credible people. We're talking homicide detectives. People that are trained observers. Military individuals and also just civilians that have footage and like really cool stuff.

And I don't know that every piece of footage. I don't know. I don't know. But the point is putting it out telling people's stories. So I hope on weaponized.

Sometimes we can have people. They might not have a piece of footage. But they are credible witnesses in positions that you know are of trust. And then also they're trained observers. I'd love to be able to have them on to to tell us what it is that they saw.

I'm now if they have a photo or video, even better. But I got some candidates for that that I'll go over with you. And I'm very excited about that that there's a whole bunch of people that have reached out to you and me, George. We haven't been able to respond because of the amount of communications. But I've found a way to narrow that down.

And the second point in news, we've put out a clips channel.

I know you don't know much about George, but Michael, our Wizard of Oz of weaponized. We're trying to create a thing so that people can see some meat of an episode in a clip. So it's a YouTube channel. It's a YouTube slash the at symbol and then it's weaponized clips. And what we're doing there is we're releasing these bite sized chunks.

So people can see, oh, do I want to watch that episode? And then go watch the main episode. So I'm really excited about that. Everybody go and subscribe to that. So you get notified when we drop some of these bite sized segments.

So you can see if you want to watch along form episode to other points, George.

Today is a very special day. A good friend of ours. It's his birthday. And I just, when we're recording today, not when we're releasing. And I just want to say happy birthday to the OG.

The Godfather. Bob Lazar. Happy birthday Bob. Give us a call. Let's know what you're up to.

I'm very excited. I think we're going to hear more from Bob in the next year. I know there's a great movie that's being made. Documentary that this hopefully will further information about Bob. I know he probably hates it.

He hates having to do anything, you know, engage the public. But ultimately, you know, as a strong individual, he's like, people got to know and judge for themselves. If I'm telling you the truth, here's my story. So I'm glad he allowed that to happen.

We should be hearing more from Bob this year. Last order of business. You know, look, you and I obtain all the time. Footage that it takes us time to that. What we can vet is that it's it's real military footage.

That it was actually labeled UAP by our own intelligence agencies.

That you were never supposed to see it, you know, the public.

And that they have classified it, UAP. And it's an example. It's like a data set. An extra little piece. No one video is ever going to do anything.

I learned that a long time ago. But adding to the data set is something I love to do. And there's one video that you and I have obtained. Then we've agreed. Okay.

It's worthy of public discourse. And it shows what appear to be in thermal orbs, which is the most obvious or common, sorry, UAP that's out there. But it's very interesting to me because of the triangular formation that these orbs move in.

And then how you can tell it's not one triangular unit. The lead one kind of jumps back and forward again.

Or that's what it looks like to me with an untrained eye.

Now we've had some people look at it. And everybody agrees. It's worthy to put out. So this is military footage. You weren't supposed to see that we obtained.

And legally as journalists once we obtain it. It's going out. And so if you're cool with it, I think we should show people. I know we recorded somewhere else. And then, you know, we talked about it.

I think we should show people that footage today. So they can just get out their dissecting tools and help us understand what our government thinks. Are UAP. Is that cool with you?

Yeah. To quote a line from the right stuff. Let's like this candle. I think today we're going to reach into the grab bag. Yeah.

Let's start taking a look at some of the video pieces. That have come our way from time to time. Yeah.

I think this one that we're going to talk about today is was very impressive to me.

Because first of all, we know for sure that it's authenticity. It is military film footage, which you and I know is our favorite. Because, you know, there's a way to document record that.

You know, where we know the source of it.

There's so much that it's AI generated these days.

And there are great civilian videos.

But it's really hard to trust them if they're not multi source.

These sensor systems, the military have accumulate more data. So even though it's not like an iPhone image. And you're seeing black and white. Some people made joke. It looks like pong, right?

Some of these look like pong. And I get that.

But what you're seeing is more visual data than you would through normal camera systems.

We are not video analysts. We're not image analysts. We claim no expertise on that.

So the best videos that we can provide are those.

And which the US military determines what category these things fall in. And if they didn't call them UAPs, we wouldn't be presenting them as UAPs. That determination is made by our Department of Defense. Now our Department of War, they make the call on that. We're just sharing it and hoping that we can get additional information after we make these things public.

And they didn't just call them UAP. They designated them UAP. And they put them in a separate archive for UAP. You know, it's funny because you look at arrow. And they're trying to, you know, kind of solve these cases.

And everything they put online, it's not that spectacular. So when we get something that shows one of the five observables. You know, I don't get if arrow really wants to, you know, kind of inform the public. Why don't if we're showing better videos in them. Why don't they go get the goodies, the good ones that are labeled UAP and bring them out and analyze them.

So with that said, this one really struck me.

But when I first saw it, it appeared to me like it was triangular and shape.

But then after watching through it, there was unique movement that broke that form.

And I think that that's what's interesting to me about the video.

This is a military recorded sensor generated image of what looks like a triangular UFO. Like one big triangular craft with dots on each of the three ends. And we clearly watched this. That's not what it did. And that's that first glance. If we just had a still image, that looks like it triangle shaped craft.

But that's the beauty of having the full video is you see a break in that formation. And a pretty distinct and interesting movement. Now again, our military said, our Department of Defense or Department of War now said that this is a formation. It's a very interesting set of words. If these are orbs, like three independent orbs, and they break that formation.

So let's play the video for everybody, but also let's look at it and just kind of fresh see what we think. The following UAP video has no audio. We recommend our audio listeners to watch the full video version of this episode. [BLANK_AUDIO] [BLANK_AUDIO]

Like a slingshot. Yeah, that's clearly not one craft with three points of light on the corners. Right. So these objects seem to be aware and intelligent of one another. And they're keeping like equidistant, equidistant as they fly. But then all of a sudden, you see one to make this playful little move as if it drops back in the formation.

And then comes forward again. But again, this is a military-themed piece of UAP footage designated by our Department of Defense or Department of War now. As UAP information, and it's pretty interesting movement. It's display of movement is what is interesting to me about this. Yeah, it's a special place in the world.

You can understand why there would be a number of military platforms keeping an eye on whatever's in the sky down there. It's over the Persian Gulf, it's over water. And that body of water on one side is our ally Saudi Arabia or the other side is Iran.

That's so nice contemporary in that region.

But you can imagine why we would be keeping eye on whatever's lying in the sky right around there.

And I don't know if we reported on it with audio because I think I was keeping the individual and charge of the ship, you know, private.

But we did report that in Persian Gulf there were instances where UAP would come above the bridges of ships. And in one case flooded the bridge with so much light that one of the commanding officers said to us. And we do have a recording of this testimony and I'm going to ask if we could put it out. But when she ought to say when she brought her hand up to her face, she said it was so bright. I couldn't see my hand in front of my face. That's really bright light.

That's not just like a spotlight being shined into the bridge.

So in the Persian Gulf, you know, we have a lot of military cameras and equipment. So we have a disproportionate amount of footage from the Middle East with UAP because we have great sensors out there all the time flying around. So that's a sensor bias of where you get more UAP is military film. But anyway, it's a Persian Gulf is this place where we've heard a lot about UAP contact with military forces, including the light situation I just talked about. Again, I don't see with my amateur eyes, I don't see any distinguishable wings or tail or fins or exhaust that would indicate a propulsion.

So let's see what people say. Let's put it out and see if we can get more information.

Your government has labeled this UAP and you were never supposed to see this footage.

I imagine there's members of Congress that would like to see it, who I don't even know if they've asked to see the repository of UAP videos that we've mentioned to them in the past. But there must be frustrating for them to know that this kind of stuff exists and they're not allowed to poke into it or get a glimpse of it at all. We do have some additional details about this thing that we're not able to release right now, would want to get anybody in trouble. But perhaps some people out there who see this on weapon eyes will be able to kick in and provide some more details for us.

Sounds great. Do we know if Arrow has seen this? They're probably able to see it, they say. They can have access to everything. Watching the shit of everything.

They're watching the show right now. And what you're commenting about Congress, I do think as good journalists, part of our job is to inform our congressional members prior to release. So I think we'll just leave it at that.

What kind of balloons do you suppose these are going to become in a couple of weeks?

The debunkers are amazing.

They should talk more directly with our government because they could solve all their cases faster than our government. They're all balloons, of course. Anyway, UAP information, Persian Gulf, really glad we could finally get this out to the public. I think it's a significant UAP video because of the observables that we're seeing.
