Unsealed: Alien Files (2012–…): Season 2, Episode 13 - Earth Federation - full transcript
FROM SPACE, EARTH APPEARS TO
BE A BORDERLESS WORLD, DOMINATED
BY A SINGLE INTELLIGENT SPECIES.
BUT LOOKS ARE DECEIVING.
HUMANITY HAS BEEN PLAGUED BY
INTERNATIONAL CONFLICTS AND EPIC
POWER PLAYS SINCE THE DAWN OF
TIME.
>> LET'S FACE IT, THE HUMAN RACE
HAS MADE SOME VERY STUPID
DECISIONS, AND AS OUR TECHNOLOGY
PROGRESSES, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
SOME HUMAN THAT'S GOING TO PRESS
THE BUTTON THAT LAUNCHES
THAT NUCLEAR WEAPON.
AND WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN?
YOU HAVE A NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST.
>> COULD AN ALIEN THREAT FORCE
HUMANS TO FORM A UNITED FRONT?
JOIN US AS WE INVESTIGATE WHY
A UNITED EARTH MAY BE OUR ONLY
CHANCE FOR SURVIVAL IN THE FACE
OF AN ALIEN INVASION.
ON "UNSEALED: ALIEN FILES."
A GLOBAL EFFORT HAS BEGUN.
SECRET FILES HIDDEN FROM THE
PUBLIC FOR DECADES, DETAILING
EVERY UFO ACCOUNT, ARE NOW
AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC.
WE ARE ABOUT TO UNCOVER THE
TRUTH BEHIND THESE CLASSIFIED
DOCUMENTS.
FIND OUT WHAT THE GOVERNMENT
DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW.
"UNSEALED: ALIEN FILES."
EXPOSING THE BIGGEST SECRETS
ON PLANET EARTH.
FEBRUARY 15, 2013. THE 2012
DA14 ASTEROID PASSES WITHIN
17,000 MILES OF EARTH, CLOSER
THAN ANY OBJECT IN RECORDED
HISTORY.
100 FEET IN DIAMETER, IT IS
40,000 METRIC TONS OF SOLID
SPACE ROCK.
ITS IMPACT WOULD HAVE BEEN
ALMOST 200 TIMES THE POWER
OF THE ATOMIC BLAST THAT LEVELED
HIROSHIMA.
THE DESTRUCTION WOULD BE
CATASTROPHIC.
OVER 100 MILLION OBJECTS OF THE
SAME SIZE FLOAT IN THE VICINITY
OF THE EARTH.
CONFRONTED WITH DEVASTATING
POSSIBILITIES, THE UNITED
NATIONS FORMS A COMMITTEE ON THE
PEACEFUL USES OF OUTER SPACE.
THEY BEGIN PLANNING FOR
EMERGENCIES CAUSED BY THE IMPACT
OF METEORS OR OTHER OBJECTS
FROM SPACE.
COOPERATION IN THE FACE OF
DISASTER IS ONE MATTER, BUT CAN
HUMANITY RISE ABOVE THEIR
DIFFERENCES IN THE FACE OF ALIEN
CONTACT?
AND IF SO, WHO WOULD SPEAK
ON BEHALF OF HUMANITY?
SEPTEMBER 2010. RUMORS CIRCULATE
THROUGH THE MEDIA.
THE U.N. IS ALLEGEDLY ON THE
VERGE OF APPOINTING THE FIRST
EARTH AMBASSADOR IN HISTORY.
MAZLAN OTHMAN, A MALAYSIAN
ASTROPHYSICIST, IS TO BE
THE FIRST POINT OF CONTACT FOR
HUMANITY AND EXTRATERRESTRIALS.
OTHMAN IS QUOTED AS SAYING,
"WE SHOULD HAVE IN PLACE
A COORDINATED RESPONSE.
THE UNITED NATIONS ARE A
READY-MADE MECHANISM FOR SUCH
COORDINATION."
ON THE EVE OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT,
OTHMAN SUDDENLY DENIES SHE IS TO
BE OUR ALIEN AMBASSADOR.
THE U.N. HAS NO COMMENT.
IS THIS A COVER-UP?
COULD OTHMAN'S APPOINTMENT HAVE
BEEN CONTESTED BY POWERFUL
NATIONS SEEKING TO CONTROL ALIEN
CONTACT?
HOWEVER, THIS IS NOT THE FIRST
INTERNATIONAL DISAGREEMENT
REGARDING EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE.
1945. THE UNITED NATIONS HAS
EMERGED FROM THE ASHES OF WORLD
WAR II. ITS VERY EXISTENCE
IS BASED ON PROMOTING PEACE
AND GLOBAL SECURITY AND
PREVENTING ANOTHER WORLD WAR.
THIS HOPE IS SHORT-LIVED, AS
ANOTHER MORE SUBVERSIVE CONFLICT
BEGINS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY--
THE COLD WAR.
RUSSIA AND THE UNITED STATES
CLOSELY MONITOR EACH OTHER'S
MILITARY DEPLOYMENTS.
THIS STALEMATED CONFLICT
REVEALS THE TERRIFYING EXISTENCE
OF A NEW, INHUMAN THREAT TO BOTH
NATIONS AND THE ENTIRE HUMAN
RACE.
UNSEALED CASE FILE: THE KAPUSTIN
YAR INCIDENT.
1948, JUNE 16. KAPUSTIN YAR,
SOVIET UNION.
AN EXPERIMENTAL PLANE IS BEING
TEST FLOWN WHEN THE PILOT MAKES
VISUAL CONTACT WITH A STRANGE
CRAFT.
RADAR ALSO PICKS UP THE UNKNOWN
OBJECT AND ORDERS THE PILOT TO
BRING IT DOWN, PEACEFULLY
OR WITH FORCE.
A NICAP DOCUMENT STATES:
"A BANANA- OR CUCUMBER-SHAPED
OBJECT WITH BEAMS OF LIGHT
WAS TRACKED ON RADAR WHEN IT
DESCENDED ACROSS THE COURSE
OF THE RUSSIAN TEST PILOT."
RECEIVING NO RESPONSE TO HIS
DEMANDS TO LAND, THE PILOT
PREPARES TO FIRE.
A BEAM OF LIGHT SHOOTS OUT OF
THE UFO, DISABLING THE AIRCRAFT
AND BLINDING THE PILOT.
WHEN HIS VISION CLEARS,
THE OBJECT IS GONE.
HE GUIDES THE DISABLED PLANE
TO A SAFE LANDING.
THE PLANE IS EXAMINED, AND
ALTHOUGH DRAINED OF POWER,
IT IS UNDAMAGED.
THE GOVERNMENT IMMEDIATELY
COVERS UP THE EVENT.
KAPUSTIN YAR REMAINED CLASSIFIED
FOR DECADES.
DESPITE THE AGREEMENT BY ALL
MEMBERS OF THE U.N. TO SHARE
INFORMATION REGARDING THREATS
TO INTERNATIONAL SECURITY,
EVIDENCE OF ALIEN LIFE IS STILL
SHROUDED IN SECRECY.
THE UNITED NATIONS REPRESENTS
THE CLOSEST HUMANITY HAS EVER
BEEN TO GLOBAL UNITY.
WAS IT FORMED TO SAVE HUMANITY
FROM ITSELF
OR FROM AN ALIEN THREAT?
4 YEARS AFTER THE FORMATION OF
THE U.N., A SMALLER, MORE
COMBAT-ORIENTED FORCE IS
CREATED. NATO, THE NORTH
ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION,
BANDS THE MILITARIES OF 14
NATIONS TOGETHER.
THE POLICY OF NATO STATES, "AN
ATTACK ON ONE NATO COUNTRY IS
AN ATTACK ON ALL."
WAS THIS ORGANIZATION FORMED
JUST IN TIME?
1952. NATO LAUNCHES A SERIES
OF COMBAT DRILLS AND SCENARIOS
DESIGNED TO SIMULATE AN ATTACK
BY SOVIET FORCES.
BUT WHAT THEY ENCOUNTERED IS NO
SIMULATION.
OPERATION MAINBRACE BEGINS
SEPTEMBER 13, 1952.
THE FIRST EVENING, HUNDREDS
OF TROOPS ABOARD THE DANISH
DESTROYER WILLEMOES OBSERVE A
GLOWING TRIANGULAR OBJECT FLYING
OVER THE SHIP.
THE OBJECT SUDDENLY ACCELERATES
INTO THE NIGHT SKY.
MILITARY WITNESSES ESTIMATE IT
TOOK OFF AT OVER 900 MILES AN
HOUR, FASTER THAN ANY AIRCRAFT
OF THE TIME.
DESPITE MULTIPLE EYEWITNESSES,
NO OFFICIAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT
OF THE ENCOUNTER EXISTS. BUT
SHOCKING INCIDENTS LIKE THE ONE
WITNESSED BY HUNDREDS FROM THE
DECK OF THE DANISH DESTROYER WAS
ONLY THE BEGINNING.
UNSEALED CASE FILE:
THE TOPCLIFFE SIGHTING.
SEPTEMBER 19, 1952. 6 DAYS
AFTER THE WILLEMOES SIGHTING,
A BRITISH RAF PILOT RETURNS FROM
A TRAINING EXERCISE.
THE PILOT APPROACHES RAF
TOPCLIFFE BASE IN YORKSHIRE.
AS DOZENS OF WITNESSES WATCH
IN HORROR, A MASSIVE SILVER DISC
COMES INTO VIEW, AS IF PURSUING
THE AIRCRAFT.
CIVILIAN AND MILITARY WITNESSES
REPORT THE UFO SHOWED INCREDIBLE
MANEUVERABILITY, SWINGING IN
BEHIND AND UNDERNEATH
THE FIGHTER WITH EASE.
MILITARY WITNESSES ARE IN SHOCK.
NO KNOWN AIRCRAFT CAN EXECUTE
THOSE KINDS OF MANEUVERS.
THE INCIDENT ALARMS THE BRITISH
MILITARY AND PARLIAMENT.
THE ABILITIES OF THE UFOs POSE
POSSIBLE THREATS THAT NEED TO BE
TAKEN SERIOUSLY.
>> MANY PILOTS REPORTED STRANGE
OBJECTS FALLING AND LIGHTED
BALLS FOLLOWING THEM, DIVING
WITH THEM, COMING UP WITH THEM
AND FOLLOWING THEM BACK TO BASE.
>> BUT THE MYSTERIOUS SIGHTINGS
ALSO SHINE A SPOTLIGHT ON THE
POLITICAL DIVIDE THAT EXISTS
BETWEEN THE WORLD'S SUPERPOWERS.
BOTH SIDES OF THE COLD WAR ARE
ENGAGED IN A LETHAL ARMS RACE,
AMASSING STOCKPILES OF NUCLEAR
WEAPONS.
THE WORLD HANGS DANGEROUSLY ON
THE EDGE OF MUTUAL DESTRUCTION.
JETS HAVE BEEN SCRAMBLED ON
SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO COUNTER
WHAT WAS BELIEVED TO BE RUSSIAN
FORCES MOUNTING AN AERIAL
ASSAULT ON NATO TARGETS.
SEVERAL ENCOUNTERS ARE REPORTED
NOT TO BE HOSTILE MILITARY
FORCES, BUT UFOs.
HOW MANY TIMES HAS THE WORLD
BEEN BROUGHT TO THE BRINK OF
NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION?
AND HOW LONG WOULD IT BE ALLOWED
TO CONTINUE?
THE ANSWER MAY LIE IN AN ABOVE
TOP-SECRET REPORT CLASSIFIED BY
NATO.
UNSEALED CASE FILE:
THE ASSESSMENT.
1963, NATO HQ. COMMAND SERGEANT
ROBERT O. DEAN UNCOVERS
A PUZZLING SERIES OF OVER 500
DOCUMENTS TITLED,
"THE ASSESSMENT."
THE DOCUMENT STATES, "OUR
PLANET AND THE HUMAN RACE HAVE
BEEN STUDIED BY SEVERAL
DIFFERENT EXTRATERRESTRIAL
CIVILIZATIONS. 4 OF THESE RACES
HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED VISUALLY."
THE DOCUMENT'S TITLE IS SIMPLE,
BUT ITS CONTENTS ARE NOT.
IT BECOMES CLEAR TO DEAN "THE
ASSESSMENT" IS EARTH'S PLAN FOR
COUNTERING ALIEN INVASION.
ACCORDING TO DEAN, THE
REVELATIONS OF "THE ASSESSMENT"
WERE SO SHOCKING, ONLY 12 COPIES
WERE MADE.
IT DETAILS AN ESCALATING SERIES
OF HUMAN-ALIEN ENCOUNTERS,
REPORTING, "A CAREFULLY
ORCHESTRATED PROGRAM OF SOME
KIND SEEMED TO BE UNDERWAY.
IT BEGAN WITH FLYBYS, THEN
LANDINGS, AND EVENTUALLY
CULMINATED IN CONTACT."
IS THIS ALIEN AGENDA ABOUT
PEACEFUL CONTACT, OR PREPARING
FOR AN INVASION OF EARTH?
THE MOST TERRIFYING PAGES OF
"THE ASSESSMENT" DETAIL A REPORT
OF A NATO ENCOUNTER FROM 1961.
ACCORDING TO THE REPORT, ALLIED
RADAR STATIONS DISCOVERED
MULTIPLE AIRCRAFT ABOVE EUROPE
AT AN ALTITUDE OF 100,000 FEET,
APPROACHING FROM THE DIRECTION
OF THE SOVIET UNION.
BUT UNKNOWN TO NATO AT THE TIME,
THE RUSSIANS DETECT A SIMILAR
FORCE APPROACHING SOVIET
AIRSPACE 9 MINUTES LATER,
TRIGGERING THE UNIMAGINABLE, A
COUNTDOWN TO AN ALL-OUT NUCLEAR
WAR. THE COUNTERATTACK LAUNCH
SEQUENCE BEGINS, BUT SUDDENLY,
THE RADAR SCREEN IS CLEAR.
PILOTS ON SCENE REPORT THE
FLEETS WERE NOT ENEMY FORCES,
BUT UFOs.
TOTAL DESTRUCTION IS ONLY
NARROWLY AVERTED.
NATO OFFICIALLY DENIES THE
EXISTENCE OF "THE ASSESSMENT"
DOCUMENT.
IT WOULD TAKE YEARS BEFORE
SOMEONE WOULD FINALLY COME
FORWARD.
DESPITE GLOBAL COALITIONS
DEDICATED TO THE SECURITY OF THE
HUMAN RACE, THE PUBLIC HAS BEEN
LEFT IN THE DARK ABOUT EVENTS
THAT CONCERN THE SECURITY OF ALL
LIFE ON EARTH.
BUT ONE MAN FINALLY FORCED
THE ISSUE OUT OF THE SHADOWS.
UNSEALED CASE FILE: U.N. GENERAL
ASSEMBLY DECISION 33-426.
1978. ERIC GAIRY, PRESIDENT
OF GRENADA, BRINGS THE ISSUE
OF UFOs BEFORE THE U.N.
HE PROPOSES "THE ESTABLISHMENT
OF THE DEPARTMENT OF THE U.N.
FOR UNDERTAKING, COORDINATING,
AND DISSEMINATING THE RESULTS OF
RESEARCH INTO UNIDENTIFIED
FLYING OBJECTS."
HIS PURSUIT OF THE TRUTH
ABOUT ALIEN LIFE STEMS FROM
A PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.
PRESIDENT GAIRY WITNESSED
A STRANGE BODY DISCOVERED ON
A GRENADA SHORE OUTSIDE A SMALL
FISHING VILLAGE.
THE CORPSE WAS HUMANOID,
BUT CERTAINLY NOT HUMAN.
ITS HEIGHT WAS OVER 7 FEET
AND HAD 6 FINGERS ON EACH HAND.
PRESIDENT GAIRY LOBBIES THE U.N.
FOR TWO YEARS, PRODUCING
DOCUMENTS AND WITNESSES, LIKE
FORMER NASA ASTRONAUT GORDON
COOPER.
THE U.K. ALSO TRIED TO BLOCK
GAIRY'S UFO PROPOSAL AT THE U.N.
WHAT WERE THEY ATTEMPTING TO
HIDE, OR WAS THIS DONE ON BEHALF
OF THE U.K.'s BIGGEST MILITARY
PARTNER, THE UNITED STATES?
MANY DOCUMENTS EXIST SUGGESTING
THE U.K.'s MINISTRY OF DEFENSE
AND THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
BOTH HAVE A GREAT DEAL TO HIDE
ON THE SUBJECT OF UFOs.
BUT ALL ATTEMPTS TO BLOCK
GAIRY'S PROPOSAL WERE FUTILE,
AND IN AN UNPRECEDENTED VOTE,
THE U.N. FINALLY HEEDS GAIRY'S
ADVICE.
QUOTE, "THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
HAS TAKEN NOTE OF THE DRAFT
RESOLUTION SUBMITTED BY GRENADA
AT THE 33rd SESSION OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGARDING
UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS AND
RELATED PHENOMENA."
BUT ON THE VERGE OF THE U.N.
PASSING HIS HISTORIC UFO
PROPOSAL, PRESIDENT GAIRY IS
FORCED INTO EXILE.
HIS GOVERNMENT IS OVERTHROWN
BY A MILITARY COUP.
WAS HIS GOVERNMENT TOPPLED
TO PREVENT A UNITED SEARCH
FOR ALIEN LIFE?
MANY UFO EXPERTS BELIEVE ALIEN-
HUMAN TREATIES ARE ALREADY IN
PLACE, ARRANGED BY A HANDFUL OF
POWERFUL NATIONS SEEKING TO
CONTROL THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY.
IS THIS POSSIBLE?
DOES AN ALIEN PRESENCE ALREADY
EXIST? AND ARE HUMANS CONSIDERED
TOO PRIMITIVE TO OPENLY CONTACT?
>> THERE IS SO MUCH EVIDENCE
THAT OUR WORLD IS IN DECLINE.
WE HAVE STRANGE WEATHER
PATTERNS, POLAR SHIFTS. I MEAN,
IT'S OBVIOUS THAT WE ARE ONE
STEP AWAY FROM TOTAL
DESTRUCTION. ALIEN RACES COULD
BE HERE TO SAVE US OR SLAUGHTER
US. AS LONG AS WE'RE IN THE
DARK, WE'RE AT THEIR MERCY.
>> MANY WORLD GOVERNMENTS MAY BE
ALREADY AWARE OF THIS FACT AND
ARE TAKING STEPS TO BRING THE
SUBJECT OF EXTRATERRESTRIALS
INTO THE LIGHT.
SINCE THE YEAR 2000, ALMOST 30
NATIONS HAVE DECLASSIFIED
INFORMATION ON UFO ACTIVITY.
>> THERE WERE A NUMBER OF
REASONS WHY THE BRITISH
GOVERNMENT DECIDED TO RELEASE
THESE FILES.
ONE REASON WAS THAT THE M.O.D.
WAS GETTING MORE UFO REQUESTS
UNDER THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
THAN ON ANY OTHER SUBJECT.
IT ALSO WAS THE CASE THAT IN
2007, THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT HAD
DECLASSIFIED THEIR UFO FILES.
WHEN THE GOVERNMENT SAYS THAT
THEY'RE RELEASING INFORMATION
ABOUT UFOs, PEOPLE SHOULD SIT UP
AND TAKE NOTICE.
IF JUST ONE OF THESE SIGHTINGS
TURNS OUT TO BE THE REAL THING,
OUR WORLD CHANGES FOREVER.
>> THE MOMENT OF FULL DISCLOSURE
ABOUT ALIEN LIFE ON EARTH COULD
BE CLOSE AT HAND, BUT ENDLESS
GLOBAL STRIFE MAKES IT CLEAR
THAT WORLD UNIFICATION
DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE A
PRIORITY FOR ALL NATIONS'
GOVERNMENTS.
THE WAIT FOR UNDENIABLE PROOF
OF ALIEN CONTACT MAY FINALLY BE
OVER. BUT HAS IT COME TOO LATE
FOR PLANET EARTH?
ALEXEI ARBATOV IS HEAD OF
THE CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL
SECURITY OF THE RUSSIAN ACADEMY
OF SCIENCE.
HE BELIEVES THAT PRESIDENT
PUTIN'S NEW VISION FOR RUSSIA
EXPANDS RUSSIA'S MILITARY
CAPABILITIES BY CREATING A
COALITION WITH CHINA, MAKING THE
UNITED STATES THEIR NUMBER ONE
ENEMY AGAIN.
PUTIN'S ALLEGED FEAR IS THAT
THE U.S. AND ITS NATO ALLIES
WILL INVADE RUSSIA.
IS THE THREAT REAL, OR IS
A LARGER ONE LOOMING BEYOND
THE BORDERS OF OUR PLANET?
AN EARTH DIVIDED BY WAR WEAKENS
ITS ABILITY TO FIGHT
AND CREATES AN EASY TARGET FOR
ALIEN RACES THAT HAVE US
ON THEIR RADAR.
AT THIS VERY MOMENT, AN
AGGRESSIVE ALIEN SPECIES MAY BE
MONITORING EARTH FOR SIGNS
OF VULNERABILITY.
AN INVASION COULD HAPPEN
AT ANY TIME.
HOW WOULD WE CONFRONT
SUCH A MONUMENTAL EVENT?
THE ANSWER MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN
EXPRESSED IN A FAMOUS U.N.
SPEECH MADE BY U.S. PRESIDENT
RONALD REAGAN.
>> IN OUR OBSESSION WITH
ANTAGONISMS OF THE MOMENT, WE
OFTEN FORGET HOW MUCH UNITES ALL
THE MEMBERS OF HUMANITY.
PERHAPS WE NEED SOME OUTSIDE
UNIVERSAL THREAT TO MAKE US
RECOGNIZE THIS COMMON BOND.
I OCCASIONALLY THINK HOW QUICKLY
OUR DIFFERENCES WORLDWIDE WOULD
VANISH IF WE WERE FACING AN
ALIEN THREAT FROM OUTSIDE THIS
WORLD.
>> THIS IS "UNSEALED: ALIEN
FILES." EXPOSING THE BIGGEST
SECRET ON PLANET EARTH.
Corrected & sync CORNELDVD
BE A BORDERLESS WORLD, DOMINATED
BY A SINGLE INTELLIGENT SPECIES.
BUT LOOKS ARE DECEIVING.
HUMANITY HAS BEEN PLAGUED BY
INTERNATIONAL CONFLICTS AND EPIC
POWER PLAYS SINCE THE DAWN OF

UNDER THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
THAN ON ANY OTHER SUBJECT.
IT ALSO WAS THE CASE THAT IN
2007, THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT HAD
DECLASSIFIED THEIR UFO FILES.
WHEN THE GOVERNMENT SAYS THAT
THEY'RE RELEASING INFORMATION
ABOUT UFOs, PEOPLE SHOULD SIT UP
AND TAKE NOTICE.
IF JUST ONE OF THESE SIGHTINGS
TURNS OUT TO BE THE REAL THING,
OUR WORLD CHANGES FOREVER.
>> THE MOMENT OF FULL DISCLOSURE
ABOUT ALIEN LIFE ON EARTH COULD
BE CLOSE AT HAND, BUT ENDLESS
GLOBAL STRIFE MAKES IT CLEAR
THAT WORLD UNIFICATION
DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE A
PRIORITY FOR ALL NATIONS'
GOVERNMENTS.
THE WAIT FOR UNDENIABLE PROOF
OF ALIEN CONTACT MAY FINALLY BE
OVER. BUT HAS IT COME TOO LATE
FOR PLANET EARTH?
ALEXEI ARBATOV IS HEAD OF
THE CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL
SECURITY OF THE RUSSIAN ACADEMY
OF SCIENCE.
HE BELIEVES THAT PRESIDENT
PUTIN'S NEW VISION FOR RUSSIA
EXPANDS RUSSIA'S MILITARY
CAPABILITIES BY CREATING A
COALITION WITH CHINA, MAKING THE
UNITED STATES THEIR NUMBER ONE
ENEMY AGAIN.
PUTIN'S ALLEGED FEAR IS THAT
THE U.S. AND ITS NATO ALLIES
WILL INVADE RUSSIA.
IS THE THREAT REAL, OR IS
A LARGER ONE LOOMING BEYOND
THE BORDERS OF OUR PLANET?
AN EARTH DIVIDED BY WAR WEAKENS
ITS ABILITY TO FIGHT
AND CREATES AN EASY TARGET FOR
ALIEN RACES THAT HAVE US
ON THEIR RADAR.
AT THIS VERY MOMENT, AN
AGGRESSIVE ALIEN SPECIES MAY BE
MONITORING EARTH FOR SIGNS
OF VULNERABILITY.
AN INVASION COULD HAPPEN
AT ANY TIME.
HOW WOULD WE CONFRONT
SUCH A MONUMENTAL EVENT?
THE ANSWER MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN
EXPRESSED IN A FAMOUS U.N.
SPEECH MADE BY U.S. PRESIDENT
RONALD REAGAN.
>> IN OUR OBSESSION WITH
ANTAGONISMS OF THE MOMENT, WE
OFTEN FORGET HOW MUCH UNITES ALL
THE MEMBERS OF HUMANITY.
PERHAPS WE NEED SOME OUTSIDE
UNIVERSAL THREAT TO MAKE US
RECOGNIZE THIS COMMON BOND.
I OCCASIONALLY THINK HOW QUICKLY
OUR DIFFERENCES WORLDWIDE WOULD
VANISH IF WE WERE FACING AN
ALIEN THREAT FROM OUTSIDE THIS
WORLD.
>> THIS IS "UNSEALED: ALIEN
FILES." EXPOSING THE BIGGEST
SECRET ON PLANET EARTH.
