This Clinton Presidential Library FOIA release (2006-0483-F), taken from Scheduling Office records, contains Steven M. Greer's CSETI correspondence with the White House. Greer's 15 November 1996 letter asks President Clinton for a meeting before a planned UN disclosure event. A memo sent to senior officials says witnesses would testify publicly unless told by 1 January 1997 that security oaths still bind them. Greer's enclosed briefings claim ET craft were retrieved in 1947. The White House declined the meeting on 6 December 1996.

UFO/ETI DISINFORMATION: IMPLICATIONS FOR NATIONAL SECURITY AND
INTERNATIONAL SECURITY POLICY MAKERS
Abstract: In advance of a confirmed announcement concerning the detection of extraterrestrial
life forms, it is important for national and international security policy makers to be aware of the
risks to the decision-making process created by certain types of sophisticated disinformation and
covert interventions. These include, but are not limited to: Induction of psychoelectronic
experiences, mass psychological conditioning with false information, targeting of certain key
leaders with individualized disinformation, and the staging of a false yet convincing
extraterrestrial threat. Awareness of this by key policy makers would help minimize the risk of
unfortunate events resulting from policy decisions influenced unduly by this type of
disinformation.
Background: CSETI Project Starlight efforts directed towards the public confirmation of the
detection of extraterrestrial life forms (see Briefing Document Draft) has resulted in our
discovering a number of covert activities which may jeopardize decision making within the
national and international security communities. Since some of these decision making processes
may be adversely affected well in advance of a public announcement on this subject, we feel
morally bound to issue this briefing to advise policy makers of certain risks. Failure by certain
key pol,icy makers ( especially the White House, the National Security Council , the Joint Chiefs
of Staff and the U.N. Security Council) to compensate adequately for these risks could result in
the adoption of policies and actions harmful to world security and to the future of interplanetary
relations. This briefing is designed to provide information regarding specific disinformation
processes and their related risks to national and international security.
Overview: Disinformation is false information which is deliberately provided to groups or
individuals for the purpose of obfuscating an issue, and/or effecting a specific psychological
response (such as denial, disbelief, fear, ridicule etc). Covert attempts designed to minimize
accurate knowledge of UFOs/ETI have used disinformation and psychological warfare techniques
for over 40 years, and these techniques and related. technologies have become increasingly ··
sophisticated and effective, especially since the 1960s. The most effective disinformation is
information which is related to a truth, at least in part, but which is then embellished and
deliberately distorted by combining disinformation with the information. The presence of a
minimal but adequate degree of truth enables the false information to be more readily accepted,
or for the intended psychological response to occur.
Disinformation may be divided into two broad categories: Passive Disinformation.which is false
information placed into individual or public awareness via conventional communication means;
and Active Disinformation, which involve false experiences which are induced and which result
in a very sophisticated manipulation of individual and group perspectives and experiences.
