February 7, 2001: UFOs - Whitley Strieber
Published 1 year, 6 months ago
Description
Art Bell welcomes longtime friend Whitley Strieber to discuss his self-published book The Key and a startling new development in UFO research. Dr. Roger Leir has submitted a small claw recovered from a UFO witness for laboratory analysis, and preliminary results suggest its surface is vegetative rather than animal in nature, with white crystals resembling biological adhesive. Whitley connects this finding to testimony from his uncle, Colonel Edward Strieber, who handled Roswell debris and was told the biological material was vegetative matter.
Whitley recounts his extraordinary late-night encounter at the Delta Chelsea Hotel in Toronto, where a mysterious man calling himself Michael arrived uninvited and delivered a sweeping discourse on God, the soul, intelligent machines, and humanity's need to escape Earth. The visitor produced a white liquid that Whitley drank before losing consciousness, and no trace of the man was ever found afterward.
The discussion weaves through climate change and the accelerating confirmation of predictions from their co-authored book The Coming Global Superstorm, a spectacular New York City UFO video showing a craft emerging from behind the World Trade Center, and the visitor's provocative claim that Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam form one interconnected spiritual system rather than three separate religions.
