In addition to the normal assortment of chemists, biologists, and conventional scientists, the operation employed psychics and experts in demonology. Over at the NSA, all one can say with certainty is that its budget dwarfed all others within the intelligence community.** Dolan documents how the intelligence organizations of the United States - and very likely other countries who are working in concert with them, though outwardly they may pretend to be oppositional - have conducted terminal mind-control experiments, biological spraying of American cities, human plutonium and syphilis injections, illegal communications interception, and nationwide domestic surveillance of private citizens, political assassinations and coups, ongoing media manipulation and outright public lying on a continual basis, most especially in regards to UFOs. The above organizations, via any and all means available, made sure that, to the public at large, UFOs and aliens 1969: “I am enough of a realist to sense that, unless this AAAS symposium succeeds in making the scientific community aware of the seriousness of the UFO problem, little response to any call for new investigations is likely to appear”. McDonald presented a brilliant paper entitled “Science in Default: Twenty-two Years of Inadequate UFO Investigations”. Dolan comments that it was “perhaps the most damning statement about UFO research ever made”. Speaking before the convention at Boston’s Sheraton Plaza Hotel, McDonald came down hard on everyone: Condon, Menzel, Hynek, and finally the No scientifically adequate investigation of the UFO problem has been carried out during the entire twenty-two years that have now passed since the first extensive wave of sightings of unidentified aerial objects in the summer of 1947. ...In my opinion, the UFO problem, far from being the nonsense problem that many scientists have often labeled it, constitutes a problem of *® Ibid., p. 361. 77A 332 Chapter Twelve were a “dead issue”. Scientist and UFO disclosure advocate James McDonald said in scientific establishment itself. He said:
