I wish to continue exploring the issue of how whistleblower testimonies might be satisfactorily combined with UFO research by offering the following exopolitical analysis of the Charles Hall case.

In my last post I posed the importance of exopolitical analysis where hard evidence is lacking. Of course, those adopting the methodologies and premises of mainstream UFO research see this absence as a critical reason for dismissing or ignoring such testimonies. In contrast, exopolitical analysis precedes dispute this lack of hard evidence since the premises and methodologies of exopolitical research is based on recognizing how distorting factors imposed by government agencies negate making hard evidence a necessary threshold criterion for whistleblower admissibility. Despite my having repeatedly referred to these distorting factors in the data collection process, I've noticed that no researcher on UFO Updates has tried to seriously discuss the extent and parameters of the distorting factors when it comes to hard evidence and whistleblower credibility. It seems that veteran UFO researchers operate under the illusion of transparency in the investigatory process and find it difficult to admit anything to the contrary.

Despite the different methodologies and premises of exopolitical research and UFO research, I think there are important ways in which they overlap. One is the analysis of the credibility of a whistleblower/witness, the coherence of their testimony, the credentials of the whistleblower, etc., and how discussion of these can continue simultaneously with exopolitical analysis of their testimony. So let me illustrate this overlap by examining the case of Charles Hall.

Hall claims to have served at Nellis Airforce Base as a weather observer from 1965 to 1967. During his service he claims to have run into a group of extraterrestrials he described as the `tall whites'. These tall whites regularly intimidated his predecessors at the weather observation posts, and also generated legends of `high strangeness' at Nellis AFB. Hall claims he had repeated physical interactions with the `tall whites' and was able to communicate with them both using English and telepathically. Most significantly, Hall describes the presence of high ranking US Air force officials who accompanied the tall whites. Hall describes a Lt General who he saw on several occasions with the tall whites, and that he overheard discussions between the general and tall white dignitaries. Hall also describes the various agreements between the USAF and the tall whites in terms of basing rights in exchange for technology and information passed on by the tall whites in terms of nuclear powered shuttle craft that would travel to the moon and even Mars. For more details of Hall's testimony concerning the tall whites, I recommend taking a look at several of the articles at: http://exopolitics.org/charles-hall.htm .

So with that brief overview, what do we make of the Charles Hall case? First, how credible is Hall? Hall comes across as very sincere and likable. He has been interviewed by a range of individuals including myself who find him to be sincere. The impression I get after a number of conversations and face to face discussion, is that he believes everything he is saying. I do not detect any embellishment on his part. Importantly, when one makes eye to eye contact, he meets one directly and doesn't waver which I have found from experience to be an important clue into witness credibility.

How coherent and consistent is Hall? His testimony is revealed in a three volume set of books and he has been interviewed on a number of occasions (see: http://www.millennialhospitality.net/ ). I find yet to find any major inconsistency in his testimony and his testimony is highly coherent and basically expresses a story of extraterrestrial-government interaction at the highest level. Hall expresses his story without any hesitancy as one who is revealing what happened without embellishment, as opposed to someone fabricating a story.

How credentialed is Hall? He has a Master's Degree in Applied Physics from the University of California at San Diego and had done extensive contractual work with a number of corporations (see: http://www.paolaharris.it/master.htm ). Hall has an ongoing career and no obvious motive for coming forward with such a wild story that might jeopardize the security classification he currently possesses for his employment: Secret.

Has Hall supplied documents confirming his service at Nellis? UFO researcher Paola Harris has done the initial fieldwork on Hall and has confirmed his service record. Hall's resume gives details on his service record in his resume, which is available at http://www.millennialhospitality.net/htdocs/Charles_Hall_Resume.pdf

Do other servicemen confirm Hall's story? So far one serviceman has been interviewed who served with Hall and confirmed Hall's testimony of having worked at Nellis AFB as a weather observer. The servicemen also confirmed some of the `high strangeness' occurring at Nellis. Airline pilot and UFO researcher David Cootes did this interview and can provide details on this corroborating testimony (for Cootes reflections on the Hall case see: http://www.paolaharris.it/coote.htm.

A second servicemen has also come forward to confirm that he worked with Hall at Nellis, but as far as I'm aware, this second servicemen has not yet been interviewed.

So with that brief overview of Hall's credibility, consistency, credentials, let me make some comments of an exopolitical nature about the Hall case.

First, Hall confirms that agreements exist between the US Air force and a race of extraterrestrials dating from at least the early 1960s. The first sightings of tall whites at Nellis date from 1954 suggests that agreements were made with tall whites as early as 1954 which points to the validity of testimonies concerning agreements stemming from President Eisenhower meeting with extraterrestrials in 1954 and later. See: http://www.exopolitics.org/Study-Paper-8.htm .

Second, Hall reveals that an interplanetary trade is occurring where the Tall Whites provide technologies and information to the USAF, and in return gain food, metal, clothing and basing rights. This suggests that the tall whites may in fact be part of a resource extraction program that is unknown in terms of scope and implications. This is a serious exopolitical issue yet has yet to be seriously analyzed.

Third, Hall reveals that the USAF has developed shuttlecraft able to fly to the moon using a nuclear propulsion system. This confirms that the NASA moon program was a cover for a more extensive space program that remains hidden to the general public.

Fourth, Hall reveals that the USAF was using unbriefed servicemen as guinea pigs to study the interaction between the tall whites and humans. This suggests that the tall whites were being given experiences whereby they could feel comfortable in the presence of humans. This apparently was an important goal during Hall's interactions, which suggest that the relationship between the USAF and the tall whites is a long-term relationship based on vital national interests of the US.

In conclusion, I believe the Hall case offers a unique opportunity for UFO researchers and exopolitical analysts to come together to examine what is clearly remarkable whistleblower testimony from a very credible and coherent witness. The Hall testimony would ordinarily fall into gray box for many UFO researchers who might concede the credibility of Hall, yet remain unconvinced by the lack of hard evidence. In contrast, exopolitical analysis makes possible discussion of the most pertinent elements of Hall's case while further research is underway in terms of corroborating

testimonies, hard evidence, etc. I believe that the Hall case is part of an acclimation program secretly underway to prepare the general public for disclosure of the extraterrestrial presence and that it's vital to begin exopolitical analysis of his testimony. I look forward to comments and further discussion on the Hall
case.

In peace,
