An orchestrated attempt if you will , to discredit us all , in face of credible evidence such as the release of Brazilian military documents, and other countries exhibiting open- ness on this subject of UFO's namely France , Belgium , and Mexico.

Overall, there was no conspiracy to dupe ATS (specifically, that is). There was just a situation where people were excited by a fresh UFO video... which, to be frank, is good. In other words... there's nothing wrong with getting excited by what you think is fresh evidence. Ignoring it is what's bad.

I'm not saying " our " ( Ufology's ) interests are " bad " ( Counter productive ) , I'm saying that , if "your" ( CIA , FBI, Air Force ) goal is to make " us " ( Ufology ) out to be " fools " ( overly willing to " take in anything " [ pay attention to Prophet Yahweh ] ) , no matter how " Crazy" , as long as it fits " our " ( Ufology's )own " Goals" ( to show the reality of UFO's) , then " you " ( the CIA , FBI, Air Force ) , could not have done a better " Job " ( Delay, Destract , Destroy ) yourself.

I get your point Shaman but I do not really see it as you suggest. We simply have to be open-minded it is a requirement it we are to learn anything. So PY caused a stir for a while, a big part of that was a critical look at what was being presented.
This subject is m i n d - b e n d i n g, and we must always be willing to say 'that could be the truth' otherwise we will miss that which comes along and is real and authentic.
So I submit that today 99% of what is out there that is not true and authentic is the work of a single person, or small group. The most frequent form of government Disinfo I have seen in the last 10 years is a little discrediting style op. Put out doubts, a lie or 3, about someone who has produced something real. Even people with significance can easily be brought now a few notches in effectiveness that way. For people without a documented trail of accomplishment it can demolish their credibility in the eyes of even the most open-minded.

Don't you think that an " Insider" is going to tell his superior, over a hot cup of Coffee, in January, " Yep. Brazil's going public on this.. time to call out the " Pasty"....i.e. Ramon Watkins A.K.A. The Prophet Yahweh .... ?

I have always believed that PY was all bs from the start. I mean, look at the "evidence" from the start. Some pixels flying across a video screen? What more. There were definitely alot of hopeful people on this board who are willing to believe any possibility of a real "sign"
I agree with you, that in many ways it makes us (people in search of the truth) look a bit ridiculous, but I think this is due to the fact that some people are over anxious to have some sort of definite proof, a proof I believe will be a 100% clear cut case in the future. Not some random guy 'summoning' UFO's from the sky.
Are you seriously saying you don't expect to see now , what you know ( Reasonably assume ) has happened in the past?
