     A few years ago we received some information from Peter Gersten (then living in the Phoenix area) about his organization called Timeless Journey. The brochures that were enclosed included some information about journeys to Peru, of which we offer ourselves via Spirits of the Earth. But also I seemed to remember there was an attorney with this name, who had been successful to release some UFO documents from the government. So in contacting Peter, I asked if he "Was the Guy" and he responded yes.

     The next contact we had with Peter was last year via email correspondences on the Internet. Peter began to send to us a serial UFO story he was writing ... and we expressed some interest to share the story via our web site ...

     Then we received an email from Peter that he had started a weekly chat room on MSN (microsoft's on-line network service) and on Monday, December 29th (1997), I participated as a guest in his room. This was the first time I had a chance to speak directly with Peter and get to know him a little better. I could see Peter is one of those people who is very dedicated to what he believes in and is willing to give his time for its successful conclusion. In attending some of these chat sessions, Peter talked about CAUS (Citizens Against UFO Secrecy), the name of his organization before, when he was able to liberate some of the Government Documents related to UFOs.

     At the beginning of February (1998), Peter was invited to speak in Laughlin, Nevada at the annual International UFO Congress put on by Bob Brown and there he talked about reviving this initiative.

     For those of you not familiar with Peter, he is a criminal defense attorney who in 1977 brought suit in a U.S. District Court on behalf of Ground Saucer Watch against the Central Intelligence Agency. Pursuant to the FOIA lawsuit, the CIA in 1979 released over 900 pages of documents relating to the UFO phenomenon. They refused to release 57 documents, claiming national security considerations. On June 24th, 1980 Gersten brought suit against the National Security Agency on behalf of his own recently formed organization, Citizens Against UFO Secrecy, for 135 UFO related documents. On November 18, 1980, based upon a NSA top secret affidavit, the Court dismissed the lawsuit stating that "the continued need for secrecy far out weighed the public's right to know."

     At this time there are two approaches being pursued to challenge the U.S. Government to share what it knows about UFOs. One approach is to pursue establishing some congressional hearings that will grant amnesty to various professionals who have been involved in the cover-up so they can freely testify what they know. I know that Robert Dean is pursuing such an avenue (a former military officer). However, Peter believes a better approach is to continue to take the Government and various of its agencies to court to legally order these agencies to share its information.

     I asked Peter to send to me more information about this Initiative. If anyone who reads this page would be interested to help out, Peter's email address is listed at the bottom. V J Enterprises who has been involved in sharing various information about UFOs via our lectures, books and our web sites, is interested to support the CAUS Initiative.

     So lets see what 1998 holds ... many feel it is just a matter of time before a door opens and the truth will come out.....

Citizens Against UFO Secrecy (CAUS) is a nonprofit corporation which stands for two principles:
 

1) It is against any and all secrecy relating to contact with all forms of extraterrestrial intelligence

2) it believes that the public has the absolute and unconditional right to know about this contact.
 

1) being contacted, directly and indirectly, and will continue to  be contacted at an ever increasing rate as we approach   the galactic alignment; and

2) we presently have the  technology and resources to discover the truth about this extraterrestrial contact for ourselves and decipher these messages.

Pursuant to these principles, CAUS is involved to specific projects to get the truth out:

1) A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit to be filed against the Army based upon the book  "Day After Roswell" attributed to Lt. Col. (ret) Philip Corso.

2) "Project:  Destination Moon,' the first civilian, privately financed, rocket to the moon to send back live photos from Sinus Medii to verify alleged artificial structures located there

3) the CAUS INITIATIVE, a viable and practical alternative to Congressional hearings, immunity and amnesty

4) 'Beyond a Reasonable Doubt,' a promotional and fundraising video on behalf of CAUS.
 

1) interpretation and analysis of crop circles data

2) investigation and analysis of photos, videos and films of UFOs

3) collection and analysis of channeled information
 
 
 

In the spirit of promoting and encouraging an end to any and all secrecy relating to extraterrestrial contact with this planet; and in support of the public's right to know this information, CITIZENS AGAINST UFO SECRECY

     (CAUS) hereby formally offers pro bono legal assistance and representation, under the following terms and condition:
 

1. CAUS attorney Peter A. Gersten will, without cost or obligation to the person, enter into an attorney-client relationship* with any former or active military officer or government official who
possesses any or all of the following evidence of an extraterrestrial event:
 
a. eye-witness testimony;

b. physical evidence, including artifacts, photographs or film;

c. official government documents, whether classified or declassified;

d. any other admissible, relevant and genuine evidence which tends to confirm or corroborate such event.

* Inherent in said relationship is the client privilege which affords the client, as a matter
of law, the security that anything discussed must remain confidential unless consented to
by the client.

2. The client must consent to waive the privilege of confidentiality and allow CAUS to file a Freedom
of Act (FOIA) request to the appropriate agency, basing its request on the information supplied by
the client. At no time will the source of the information be revealed. *

* CAUS and Mr. Gersten have no ethical, professional or moral problem with keeping
the name of the client confidential, thereby respecting the client's privacy.
 

3. If a subsequent FOIA lawsuit is necessary and the client so agrees, Mr. Gersten will submit all
necessary affidavits and affirmations on 'information and belief,' thereby continuing to respect the
confidentiality of the client.
 

4. If it becomes necessary for the client to testify,* Mr. Gersten will first petition the court and US
Attorneys Office for immunity citing the client's reluctance for fear of reprisals.

* The client always controls the proceedings and can withdraw at anytime with his
 privacy intact.

The CAUS INITIATIVE affords every witness the utmost confidentiality while resolving an obstacle to important disclosures.

Dear Supporters of the CAUS,
 

Citizens Against UFO Secrecy has recently filed for non-profit corporate status in Arizona. The pertinent section of the Articles of Incorporation is the following:
 

4. Initial Objectives.  The specific charitable, scientific, literary, and educational objectives of this corporation are:

a. to educate and enlighten the public about the continuing presence of extraterrestrial life and intelligence in contact, directly and indirectly, with the people on this planet;

b. to continue to work towards ending any and all secrecy surrounding and involving extraterrestrial contact; and

c. to fund research and development projects consistent with the above purposes.

CAUS is presently involved in a video titled 'Join the CAUS:Evidence of Extraterrestrial Contact. It will be a 30 minute video used for promotional and fund raising purposes. Future projects involve:
 
 

1) ''Project Destination Moon:  Verification", the first privately funded, civilian, unmanned rocket launch to the moon to transmit live photographs from Sinus Medii. Over the last few years Richard Hoagland has presented reasonable suspicion to believe that there are possible artificial structures at that location. Trans Lunar Research, a private rocket company, has submitted an estimate to CAUS in the amount of  12 million for said project. CAUS believes that evidence suggesting the possibility of artificial structures on our moon warrants immediate investigation and thus will soon be soliciting funds in the amount of $30,000 for the production of a promotional video to sponsor this project;

2) The formation of an investigative and scientific committee to authenticate, beyond a reasonable doubt, the astounding report and video of an unusual object seen passing behind a building in Mexico City last year. If the object seen in the video is real, then CAUS believes that we have positive proof of an
advanced technology and an absolute right to know what it is and why it was there;

3) The formation of a scientific committee to study the continuing formation of crop circles. CAUS believes that there is sufficient evidence by reputable investigators to suggest that these pictographs are communications from an extraterrestrial intelligence;

4) The filing of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Army in the US District Court in Phoenix based upon the statements made by Lt. Col. (ret.) Philip Corso in his book 'Day After Roswell.' CAUS believes that Corso's book and public statements concerning his eyewitness account of, while in the Army, seeing bodies of non-human creatures as well as their subsequent autopsy reports, are facts that cannot be ignored and should be given a full hearing in open court where, both Corso and the Army are held accountable;

5) The continued distribution of the CAUS INITIATIVE. CAUS believes that the CI provides any former or active military or government official possessing secret  information about extraterrestrial contact the ability to come forward without fear of reprisals;

6) The introduction of the CAUS online newsletter...'JUST CAUSE;' and

7) The debut of the CAUS web site. CAUS believes that this site will be a place that people can access to learn the truth about extraterrestrial contact.

CAUS welcomes all suggestions and comments. CAUS also welcomes any support and assistance. Please distribute this update to all your friends and enemies...because we are all one. We must join together to expose the truth.  We have an absolute and unconditional right to know the truth about contact with another form of intelligence. CAUS believes we have the resources and technology to learn the truth ourselves. All we ask is that no one and nothing interfere with our search for the truth. We are being contacted...and this contact will increase as we approach the galactic alignment. Please listen to the messages carefully. We are not alone.
 
 

Peter A. Gersten, Esq.
Director, Citizens Against UFO Secrecy, Inc.
