A CLOSE SHAVE
My encounter of 1989 was equivalent to a wake up call. Not only did the experience re-connect me with the events of 1976, but it immediately changed the way I viewed my world.
My first adventure, having ‘sold up’, was with a photographer. She and I were on the same wave length regarding the idea of other realities and the desire for investigation into these matters. I purchased an old 4×4 and we set off initially heading for Italy where my father lived and thereafter who knew where fate would direct us.
Unfortunately the trip soon turned into a disaster. I somehow slipped a disc and arrived at my fathers barely able to move and things didn’t get any better. It was one of the coldest winters for many years in that region of Italy which resulted in the death of vast numbers of olive trees. Unable to get about and with no improvement of my back condition, my girlfriend decided that it was best if she returned to England. Then my father decided that he needed to go to Germany to be with his “new Lady”. So I found myself alone, barely able to walk, in a remote farmhouse in Tuscany during one of the coldest winters the region had known. Could things get worse? YES.
On the 18th January 1991, Operation Desert Storm commenced and the Gulf war began in earnest. I was devastated by the whole affair, the hypocrisy, the lack of common sense and delusions of power. I wanted to grab all the so called world leaders by the scruff of their necks, lock them up in a room and tell them that they would not be seeing their families again until these endless wars, religious misconceptions and lack of humanity had been once and for all resolved. If my back had permitted I would have gone to Baghdad, believe me. I had the calling! I needed to be in a position to tell the world where MY information comes from. Why to these extra-terrestrial beings or whatever they are, we are obviously still so barbaric, ignorant and arrogant.
Lets not forget who was supporting who i.e. Iraq/Iran or Afghanistan/Russia.
Remember that the C.I.A trained Bin Laden! As an “abductee” the concept of harm towards other humans is simply based on fear and ignorance. Little did I know then that David Cunningham (Gulf War hostage) and I would later become friends.
The worlds budget for military affairs is a staggering $1,200 Billion (2006).
Just think how this could be utilized if we lived in peace.
In view of this absurd situation I decided that I had to get away from my isolation and still barely able to walk I climbed in to my 4×4 and headed for the village where I hoped to find some friends to communicate with. As I trundled down the mountainous road I managed to mis-brake a hairpin bend and careered over the side. I finally came to a stop when I hit a tree some distance down the steep incline. Miraculously I escaped with a cut hand and concussion. I should have been dead. It’s not the first time I have felt that I have a guiding light to protect me.
After two days in hospital I decided to get out of this bad situation. I hitched a lift to the nearest city, hired a car and drove without stopping, apart from refuelling, to Barcelona where my brother was living. Here over the next month or so I slowly recovered. At night I could hear the B52s overhead heading for Iraq to drop their loads. Estimates say over ten thousand civilians were killed. Having pulled out of countries like Afghanistan, Iraq and Lybia what have we left ? Today, with the new wars that continue the figures are much much higher.
As we all know, no weapons of mass destruction had been found (the pretext of the war). It is only about oil and religion.
The fact that none of the warmongers had given any thoughts to the situation after the invasion of Iraq is just mind boggling. These people are running our lives!!
Having recovered through being in a country that still retains family values and my brothers hospitality I eventually returned to England where, during the next few years, I experienced some very strange events.
My life had changed again.
