For example, Jones does well in exposing some subjects but he entirely misses others.
When he denies that global warming is occurring, it makes everything else he tries to say look weak. He's not a scientist, and his quick stuff about a global warming hoax, when compared to the overwhelming climatological expertise and studies in print, looks very amateurish.
My gut feeling is that Jones doesn't want to venture in the debate about aliens because he fears it would discredit his other assertions. The evidence is there, the sources and corroboration are clear and unmistakeable: anyone who has read on the subject can see that. But if Jones says one word on the air about how he thinks aliens are visiting, he may think his enemies will use that to discredit his other assertions.
So, re aliens, see other sources. Don't expect Jones to take that leap.

AJ has his priorities. You want him to change them. Are there not enough people already on the UFO Disclosure bandwagon (and I don't mean that in any pejorative sense) alreadly?
Why not let him set his own priorities? Why insist that he follow yours?
I've just seen an interview with Webster Tarpley in which he said, "forget about UFOs, concentrate on the imminent political threat represented by the banking interests" (I'm paraphrasing). The guy has a point. It could be argued that the most imminent threat to us comes from that direction.

Because I can! And I love to tell people what to do!
It wouldn't hurt to give these crucial technologies some air-time!!
I have watched the sky for UFO’s for the last 15 years but hadn’t seen anything unusual until a friend of mine taught me how to look at the stars properly, prior to this all I ever saw in the sky was a few bright stars. As for using a telescope to look for objects within or just beyond earth’s atmosphere, it is not very practical as the field of vision from a telescope is very narrow. Even if you did happen to catch a real UFO in your scope unless you are very, very good with it you would only have a fleeting glimpse before it would pass out of your field of vision. For those of you who are interested this is the proper way to look at stars. First give your eyes about 15 minutes to get used to the darkness. Next pick out any bright star in the sky and look directly at it for at least 3 minutes. As you stare at this bright star you will begin to notice dimmer stars coming into view along the periphery of your vision field. Notice also how when you try to look directly at these other stars at your visions edge they seem to disappear; they seem to disappear because of the way the human eye is designed. So if you expect to see any small moving object in the night sky you have to learn to look at the entire sky at the same time not concentrating on any one spot. Next look for movement, it is easy to detect when you look at the sky in this way. Since I have learned to do this I have seen many intelligently maneuvered dim lights very high in the sky at night. After making all the necessary inquiries of nearby airports and military bases I have in all but two cases deemed them to be intelligently controlled un-identifiable flying objects.

To be fair, AJ has a valid point. I've seen every known UFO vid on the net and none have any definition. Until somebody can actually record a UFO in high definition thats clear to identify I will laugh at most claims and vids. Most vids look like pranks or BS trying to fickle the masses. This should not be hard to do with todays technology. I'm tired of seeing blurry specs of light or intelligent orbs people like to call them.
I have not seen one yet nor has anybody in my Family seen one. Infact, nobody I know has ever seen one. I look at the night sky all the time with my telescope. That being said, I do believe ET's have been here in the past judging by the overwhelming evidence through archaeological discoveries of our past civilizations. I just have not personally seen one nor have I seen one thats legit enough from all the vids on the net. If anybody disagrees, then by all means.. show me a vid that can clear that up for me. The only vids I see that look like they could be legit intelligent beings operating craft are the ones from NASA.
Especially this one.

i think alex says what he says about UFO's is maybe due to him being a devout christian. the idea may just not be in his belief system and is unwilling to accept it.
