In August, I published this journal entry about the reasons for UFO secrecy. As far as I know and understand, it is correct. I thought perhaps that some new documents had added some missing pieces, but on analysis I see that this statement still holds up.

More often than not, I sleep right through the hour between three and four, when the incident took place. For the first fifteen years after it happened, this was not true.

His objective, in directing his spectacular assault against the U.S., was to cause ferocious American reprisals that would outrage Moslem fundamentalists. He has as his objective the toppling of three governments: those of Pakistan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
