When we learn the truth, we should stop supporting those who have lied to us no matter 
how appealing their  story,  how exciting  their data,  or how much  we wish it  to be true.

THE UFOLOGY 
REQUIRES PROTECTION

Boris SHURINOV

This passage about Stonehill, Mantle 
and their silly book “The Soviet UFO Files” 
is extracted from my lecture in Cosenza, Italy, 
October, 8, 2005, presented in PowerPoint.

      The ufology requires protection against liars and debunkers. Especially against liars and debunkers within the ufological community.

    My goal will be to show the debunkers spoiling the image of the Russian ufology both in Russia, and in the world.

 This book is the best collection of falsifications, gossips and profanation of the Russian ufology.

In Foreword Philip Mantle writes: 
 
  «The Soviet UFO Files, with its ground-breaking text and wealth of previously unpublished photographs… 

  For the first time, an established Russian UFO researcher brings the mysteries of the phenomenon to the attention of the Western world  and reveals startling information that has never previously been seen outside Russia.»

     So, we have «ground-breaking text» and «wealth of previously unpublished photographs».

  Let us begin with «previously unpublished photographs».

 This object was seen in the vicinity of another nuclear power plant days before the disaster of Chernobyl.

P. 69

   It is known that this photograph has nothing to do with the disaster at Chernobyl. 
  The photo was taken in Tiksi, Yakutiya, on November 21st, 1959. (Yakutiya is located in the high latitudes.)
  The story is published in the newspaper Komsomolskaya pravda in 1961 (January 8, 1961). 
   By the way, Adolf Schneider and Hubert Nalthaner mention this optical effect in their book "Das Geheimnis der unbekannten Flugobjekte»  (1975)
The book in question is wealth 
of such «previously unpublished photographs» 
without any connection with UFOs. 
    What is necessary to sell silly books about the Soviet UFO Files? 
    Yes, you have guessed.  It is necessary to mention « KGB » as often as possible.
«This glowing UFO, sighted over Moscow, has been just one of many investigated by prominent KGB officials.»

 P. 78.

   The previous photograph with the monument to Youri Dolgoruky (founder of Moscow) and the «glowing UFO investigated by prominent KGB officials» has nothing to do with UFO and KGB. 
   It is one of many photographs made by the correspondent of the newspaper Komsomolskaya pravda I.Gricher. Gricher saw the photo from Tiksi and did many successful photos with optical effects in the center of Moscow. 
  One can read the story of the published photograph in Komsomolskaya pravda (January, 8th, 1961).

   Optical effects without «prominent KGB officials».
                      (From my archives.)
    P.80
TOP SECRET 
from 
TOP LIARS.
This «never published» was published many times. It has noting to do with Russia.

C.Glenday. UFO.The Investigator’s Handbooks. 1999.
   Instead of «wealth of previously unpublished photographs», promised by the consultant of the book, we have wealth of published photographs without any connection with UFOs. 
  To be more precise, everything was published. Published many times. As far as UFOs are concerned, don’t waste your time. There is nothing in this book. 
   There are many photographs of launchings in Russia.
P.12

Cuadernos de Ufologia, # 19-20,1995.P.61.

 These photographs are known all over the world. 

Launchings.

P.35

P.18
In my archives there are many photographs of launchings in Russia.
 
SIMILAR, SIMILAR...  SIMILAR TO WHAT?

It is a ball lightning.
 


 
 
 

BTW, it is the same well known ball lightning 
from P. 80.

Without any significance
P.120
P.88
Crash? Blatant lie.
 
     The crash in Zigansk was invented by A. Anfalov.
    Anfalov knows that the extraterrestials are falling 
from the sky regularly. 
    The consultant of «The Soviet UFO Files» Philip 
Mantle signed with Anton Anfalov an article about 
a lot of crashes in Russia. 
P.121  This fake is very beautiful. But it is a fake.
I have the best copy of this fake. 
Does it meen I must dupe the others like Stonehill and Mantle?
THIS TIME TWICE. 
    WHY NOT? Everything is good if there is no text, if there is no interesting  photograph.

P.103

P.122
They put everything in their silly book. Even... 
P.26
P.35
Stonehill writes: - It is not a hoax.
 
Sorry, it is a well known fake 
made by Dima Girenko.
P.39
The next story is a very successful attempt to show «unpublished photos» in combination with «ground-breaking text».
This «ground-breaking text» is really breaking...


What are they speaking about, these «ground-breaking» ufologists?
Here we see a «cone-shaped UFO».
Do not forget this mysterious 
«…has never been settled…»
Janvier - Fevrier 1991
Entretien avec Boris Shurinov
In 1991,  I knew that it was a movie prop. 
In 1994, Roberto Pinotti received a letter from Poland with photographs of a «movie prop»: «just film’s decoration».


 


UFO Magazine - 1995
So, with the movie prop everything is clear. 

But in 1998,  an «established Russian UFO researcher»/debunker brings the so-called mystery to the attention of the Western world.

What does he generally know in ufology? Not too much.
   The next example concerns «official sightings by Sovier cosmonauts», and «an inside into the secret files of the KGB».
 

   On October 24, 1991, 124 pages of documents were given to the former cosmonaut Pavel Popovitch. The files contained copies of UFO reports sent to the KGB. 
   These very important documents were presented in all seriousness by R.Pinotti, M.Hesemann and by myself.

1995

 


1996-97
In «The Soviet UFO Files», cases from the KGB’s files are presented immediately after the blatant lie about the cosmonauts.

  P. 67. «From May 14 through May 18, 1981, the two cosmonauts had observed an unidentified spaceship. …the cosmonauts were able to observe three brown-skinned beings with slanted bright noses and bushy eyebrows. …While the alien ship approached the Soviet station, the beings showed them a map… The aliens had no reaction to Morse code (in either English or Russian).» 

  There was «a secret meeting held in Moscow after Kovalenok and Savinikh came back to Earth. …The film showed that the aliens left their spaceship without any protective suit, and seemingly had no breathing apparatuses. They floated next to their craft...»

   What is it? «The Files of Lies» or «The Lies in Files»? 
It is clear that the best document put in this garbage turns into a silly joke. 

But Paul STONEHILL is proud:

-- My book «The Soviet UFO Files» (Philip Mantle has my gratitude, for without him the book would not have been possible) was a brief introduction to the history of Soviet ufology.

Source: http://www.ufotoday.bizhosting.com/ntessla.tunguska.htm

As you see, this book is an introduction, an introduction to the debunking of the Soviet ufology. It is clear that it is a money making business.

The Soviet UFO Files, was published in 1998, in English, Czech, and Dutch.

 Is it possible to calculate how many lecturers were duped and will be duped in the future?

The author of “The Soviet UFO Files” and his consultant presented their fols mysteries as

Yes, it is the Top.  The Top of DEBUNKING.

    The spreading of lies and rumors is very important for debunkers. That’s why the blatant lie about our cosmonauts Kovalenok and Savinikh and aliens floating without any protective suit is now on the site of GREPI (Switzerland). This time in French. 
    In my book «OVNIS en RUSSIE», written in French, I examine this lie in details (p.153-156). 
    I know Vladimir Kovalenok, the late ufologist Viktor Voropaev, my good friend, and Viktor Savinikh were neighbors... 
    But if the lie must be spread, it is spread... 
    Don’t forget that Stonehill is presented by Mantle as «an established Russian researcher»! 
    It's a pity you cannot read in Russian! On my site Stonehill is not forgotten. You could laugh until you cry.
There must be no place for liars and debunkers in ufology.

Subject: UFO USSR

Reviewed By Ruth Gardner

Throughout the centuries UFOs hovered over Russia, and USOs (Unidentified Undersea Objects) lurked in its waters. This e-book introduces the phenomena of the most important cases, observations, and sightings. 'UFO-USSR' endeavours to describe efforts of those dedicated researchers who have stubbornly pursued UFO research in the Russian Empire, the USSR, and modern Russia.

The evidence in this piece of literature is extensive both in scope and detail. In its totality, it comprises a body of evidence written in the style of a Russian, which at the very least supports the general assessment of describing as fully as possible Soviet and Russian UFO cases, research areas, prominent personalities involved in such research (military, intelligence
agencies, and civilians), opinions and viewpoints of those who were and are serious in their approach to the study of anomalous phenomena.

Whatever the UFO phenomena is, it is certainly not a modern invention as this unique history clearly demonstrates. The history of UFO sightings and contacts over the lands that later
became known as Russia date back thousands of years. 'UFO-USSR' is not meant to be definitive in any way, but is meant to show that UFO research has been and still is very active in the former USSR, and that a vigorous programme of research and serious diplomatic initiatives is warranted.

The sheer scale of the authors' vision is breathtaking and I would challenge any non-believer to remain sceptic and walk away unchanged after absorbing the facts of decades in duration, and
global in nature of there being too many hard sensor data-points and millions of eyewitnesses to ignore the evidence. This e-book has been published in the hope that the research and
investigations will enable greater co-operation between East and West in what some have called 'The Greatest Mystery Known to Mankind'.

Written by Paul Stonehill and Philip Mantle, currently 'UFO-USSR' is only available as an e-book from: http://www.filamentbooks.com/ at a cost of $9.99.
