International Exopolitics Lecture Tour
Washington, DC - On Sunday, September 25 at a symposium to be held at the University of Toronto Convocation Hall, PRG Executive Director Stephen Bassett will begin a national and international lecture tour under the umbrella theme: The Exopolitics of Disclosure: Why the Truth Embargo Regarding an Extraterrestrial Presence Engaging the Human Race Must End Now. The next stop will be the Avalon Theatre in Easton, MD. Bassett will then go to Rende, Italy to speak at the University of Calabria and return to the US to speak in Santa Clara, CA.
The lectures will either be produced by PRG or by sponsored invitation. The goal is to stand on the soil of every nation and call for the United States Government to end the embargo preventing people of all nations from knowing the truth about their world. This tour will continue until Disclosure has been achieved. [Disclosure is the formal acknowledgment by governments of an extraterrestrial presence.]
Mr. Bassett's presentation will derive from ten years as a Washington based political activist and leading advocate for Disclosure and open Congressional hearings. It will also draw from two important books: UFOs and the National Security State: Chronology of a Cover-up, 1947-1973 by Richard Dolan and Missing Times: News Media Complicity in the UFO Cover-up by Terry Hansen. These books are essential reading for any member of the government or political press who have been mislead by 58 years of government disinformation on this issue.
The Toronto Symposium will break new ground. It will mark the first time in history that any defense minister or secretary of defense of any first world nation (and possibly any nation) will state publicly that he or she is convinced the UFO phenomenon is extraterrestrial in origin.
Also speaking will be the aforementioned historian, Richard Dolan, who will lead off with a summary of the national security measures taken in the US to address and suppress understanding of extraterrestrial-related phenomena. Canadian researcher, Stanton Friedman, will expand on this based upon his 40 years of research. Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister, Paul Hellyer, will speak. Stephen Bassett, will close with the keynote presentation.
While the top echelon media organizations in the United States (ABC, NBC, CBS News, Washington Post, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, etc.) have supported the US Government imposed truth embargo, either freely or under threat, the Canadian press is not so influenced. Consequently, there has been considerable coverage of this event and Hellyer's pending remarks by the major newspapers in Canada.
If Canada were to break ranks with the United States on the matter of the extraterrestrial presence, the truth embargo would collapse.
