Strieber Claims FBI Investigated Alien Abductions to Cover Them Up
"There's been an FBI investigation of this going on now for a few years. I thought to myself at the time, they know a lot of things because I know some of the things they know and they're not pretty at all. I think would be a possibility because lying is part of the game with this stuff."
About this episode
In this episode of Weaponized, hosts George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell interview renowned author Whitley Strieber about his decades-long contact experiences with non-human intelligence and the implications for current disclosure efforts. Strieber, whose 1987 book Communion became a cultural touchstone for experiencers worldwide, made several explosive claims including that the FBI secretly investigated alien abductions to debunk them, that he possesses a functional communication implant in his ear, and that homeless people in Brooklyn were mutilated in soul-extraction experiments in the 1990s. He revealed he was subjected to a covert Air Force program as a gifted seven-year-old in 1952 that induced immune system collapse through psychological torture designed to trigger contact with non-human entities. Strieber theorized recent scientist disappearances, including materials expert Jacinto Reza and potentially General Michael McCasland, were alien abductions aimed at sabotaging reverse-engineering programs. He described multiple types of beings—small manufactured grays, taller grays with personalities and quadrospheric brains, and mantid entities—emphasizing the phenomenon is neither purely benevolent nor malevolent but profoundly complex. Strieber explained his updated book Transformation 2026 was commissioned through telepathic communication with non-human intelligence to help families navigate contact experiences as disclosure approaches. He warned against oversimplification, arguing humanity must navigate between factions offering false technological gifts and genuinely helpful entities, with the responsibility to discern the difference falling entirely on humans.
