JFK, Marilyn and UFOs
An astounding but likely combination
by Jim Marrs - 06/01/2000
One bizarre UFO story concerns a connection between President John F.
Kennedy, Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe, and those ever-present flying
saucers. Some believe that recent revelations might even point to a UFO
connection to both Kennedy assassinations.
For many years, rumors have circulated linking Monroe romantically with both
John and Robert Kennedy.
In 1994, Los Angeles private investigator Milo Spiriglio, who wrote three
books about Monroe’s controversial death, obtained a poorly-reproduced copy
of what appeared to be a CIA report dated August 3, 1962 - just two days
before the actress died of a reported drug overdose.
This report stated that, through a telephone wiretap, agents listened in on a
conversation between the renowned reporter Dorothy Kilgallen and a close
friend in Hollywood. The friend talked about a breakup between Monroe and the
Kennedys and said the actress was attending parties hosted by Hollywood’s
“inner circle,” where she threatened to hold a press conference and reveal
“secrets” she had learned from both John and Robert Kennedy.
According to the report, these secrets included her knowledge of “bases” in
Cuba - perhaps a reference of the Soviet missile sites which led to the
crisis a few months later - and plans to kill Fidel Castro.
But, the first listed “secret” was a “visit by the President at a secret air
base for the purpose of inspecting things from outer space.” Kilgallen did
not seemed shocked by this statement. In fact, according to the CIA report,
she replied that she might know the source of such a visit - strange crashes
in New Mexico during the late 1940s. She stated that in the mid-1950s, she
learned from a British government official about a secret effort to identify
the origin of crashed spacecraft and dead bodies.
Spiriglio, a court-certified document expert, declined to reveal the name of
the person who provided the report, saying that at least two federal agencies
were investigating the matter.
To date, no one has been charged with taking official government documents,
but several ex-CIA employees have verified the document’s contents. “It
appears to be a summary designed to be transferred to other agencies,”
commented researcher Vic Golubic, who investigated the document for more than
a year and still could neither confirm nor deny its authenticity. “I have
checked with many people and 50 percent say it’s authentic and 50 percent say
it’s not. Either it’s a very clever hoax or it’s legitimate.”

The document appeared to be signed by none other than James J. Angleton,
former chief of CIA counterintelligence. Adding to suspicions about the
document’s legitimacy was a reference to Project Moon Dust and a smudgy
imprint at the bottom which appeared to read “MJ-12,” that mysterious and
controversial group of high-level government officials, military officers and
scientists reportedly in charge of the UFO issue.
However, there is some intriguing support for the notion that the story might
be true. First is an article by Dorothy Kilgallen, which was published in
1955. Under the headline “‘Flying Saucer’ Wreckage Assures Britons of
Reality,” she wrote, “I can report Sunday on a story which is positively
spooky, not to mention chilling. British scientists and airmen, after
examining the wreckage of one mysterious flying ship, are convinced that
these strange aerial objects are not optical illusions, but are actually
flying saucers, which originate on another planet. The source of my
information is a British official of cabinet rank who prefers to remain
unidentified. ‘We believe, on the basis of our inquiries thus far, that the
saucers were staffed by small men - probably under four feet tall,’ my
informant told me. ‘It’s frightening but there is no denying the flying
saucers come from another planet.’ This official quoted scientists as saying
a flying ship of this type could not possibly have been constructed on Earth.
The British government, I learned, is withholding an official report on the
‘flying saucer’ examination at this time, possibly because it does not wish
to frighten the public. In the United States, all kinds of explanations have
been advanced. But no responsible official of the U.S. Air Force has yet
intimated the mysterious flying ships actually vaulted from outer space.”
Considerable support for Kilgallen’s story came during the same period when
British Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, commander-in-chief of RAF fighters
during the Battle of Britain, told the London Sunday Dispatch knowingly, “I
am convinced that these objects do exist and that they are not manufactured
by any nation on Earth...I think that we must resist the tendency to assume
that they all come from the same planet, or that they are actuated by similar
motives. It might be that the visitors from one planet wished to help us in
our evolution from the basis of a higher level to which they had attained.
Another planet might send an expedition to ascertain what have been those
terrible explosions which they have observed, and to prevent us from
discommoding other people besides ourselves by the new toys with which we are
so light-heartedly playing. Other visitors might have come bent solely on
scientific discovery and might regard us with the dispassionate aloofness
which we might regard insects found beneath an upturned stone.”
Information concerning JFK and his connection to UFOs will be continued in
next week’s column.
Correction from last week's article: As astute reader Antonio Solis pointed
out, Cinco de Mayo is not in celebration of Mexican Independence from Spain,
which occurred in 1821. Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of the Mexican victory
at the battle of Puebla. On May 5, 1862, the forces of Benito Juarez led by
Gen. Ignacio Zaragoza repulsed a force sent by Napoleon III to establish a
French state in Mexico (part of a plan to seize the United States after the
Civil War). The French returned and took the city the following year and it
was not until 1867 that the city again was Mexican and the French forces sent
packing.

Union in the 1860s, be sure a get a copy of the latest book, Rule by Secrecy,

Amazon.com. And don’t miss his new e-book Psi Spies, which deals with the U.
S. Army’s top-secret remote viewing program, or the most comprehensive book
ever on UFOs, Alien Agenda. Both are available right here at AlienZoo.
