I think you missed the point.

I am so sick of all this crap of Alien invasions it is getting really old and it looks like the American government is just looking for another thing to keep people in fear as the so called "War on terror" is coming to an end.. Looks like they want to move from threat of terrorists to threat of an alien invasion..

Wernher von Braun said America will manufacture four enemies;

1) Russians... they never were our enemy, the whole Cold War was a ruse to arm up both sides

2) Terrorists...Bin Ladin and Saddam had NOTHING to do with 9/11... even Busg saya so

3) Asteroids... were gonna need some big space weapons to stop those puppies

4) Alien invasion... were gonna need a space fleet to stop those critters...

Seems like they may be skipping step 3


But then... Asteroid Apophis is coming in 2029... its gonna be so close it can knock out satellites. Even NASA isn't 100% sure of the trajectory

On Easter Day no less.. of all things in this world to report on, they go in this direction.
However I'm somewhat taken back on how calm your parents agree without saying anythng contrary.
Have you had any real conversation with them on this subject?

Aah so project blue beam propaganda phase has begun I see? Interesting....

Yes at first my Mum said the bloke from US Military was crazy for believing in Aliens and I just laughed and said does she honestly believe there is no such thing as aliens, and then said not believing in other life is like not believing in oxygen and then went on to explain how there is over 250 billion stars just within our galaxy with each having the possibility of having there own solar system with at least one habitable planet. Not to mention the thousands upon thousands of known other galaxies some even larger than ours which are really only a small portion like a grain of sand at a beach when compared to the rest of the universe which is seeminly infinite lol she just said well when you put it that way, yes there is obviously other life and then went onto agree we will find another civilisation some day. As for my dad he has always secretly had an interest in UFOs and stuff although he would never let anyone but me know. I showed him a great film once called "thrive" he is now very open minded.. Lol thanks for the question I think I am lucky and have parents who at least have some form of common sense left.

Just what would be the point of Aliens invading? metals? plenty in the asteroid belt, water? plenty around Saturn, food? might very well kill them what is grown on this planet, slaves? slaves would more than likely sabotage what they are working on, and food would have to be transported from the home planet, just how would the aliens cope with all the different religions? Creeds, languages? no, I would not invade this planet.

personally, i think there is no way they would/could fake an alien invasion. its laughable.
its all talk

as a whole, we are stupid, but not that stupid

It was most likely shown on Easter Day intentionally because it's a public holiday so they obviously wanted the show to reach the largest audience possible.

Ya think?
They wouldn't even have to stage an actual invasion - just a couple of disasters and lay the blame on ET
As for the comment about the world getting together to fight off a threat, how scripted was THAT!
OWO anyone?
Good find OP

well the us military is headed to AUS in drones - same difference!

plus, maybe they are dusting off project blue beam...

If aliens decided to show up here, there gonna be friendly for sure...(if we don't get "crazy")
An alien race that is so technological advanced to get here, did'nt get that advanced with a hostile environment...
Look at us... we are to busy killing each other, instead of exploring the universe

Don't discard Holograms, I visited Disney World Haunted house, years ago and they had a great line up then. I heard there was a recent lecture, where the speaker walked among the audience, spoke for aprox 1 hour, then just disapeared in front of everyone.

Nothing to do with Australia, just another story from those "Kooky" Americans.
Mr Springer...I wonder if hes related to Jerry?.

The accompanying "alien" footage, I presume is from some American show? Is that the History channel stuff?
Just another story to fill in time, while all the good Christians were at church today.
Love the Ronnie Raygun quote... "What if the Earth is invaded by some outside force, the World would unite" etc etc.
As long as the Americans havent bombed the crap out of everyone first.
Just kidding my American brothers and sisters.
Easy way to get rid of the Aliens, Just crash a drone full of swine flu or some Earth influenza into their crafts, and watch them suckers fight a germ warfare.
Must remember,...get a flu shot soon.
