Jonathan Maberry
“How will they be able to tell the difference between enemy combatants and our own troops?"
"All soldiers will have an RFID chip implanted," explained the major. "No WarDog will fire on someone who has a chip."
"That's all well and good," said Schoeffel, "but ISIL and the Taliban tend to hide in urban areas and among civilian populations. How do we keep civilians safe?"
The scientist didn't meet her eyes.
Major Schellinger said "We're still working on that.”
Jonathan Maberry, Dogs of War

“It is becoming technically feasible for sounds and images to be projected into people’s minds at a distance. Is this part of the technology that creates the UFO phenomenon? Could the required equipment be carried on board an ordinary bus? Here again we must ask the question first posed at the occasion of the UMMO investigation: Are we dealing with a terrestrial technology that systematically confuses the witnesses? If so, it must be possible to demonstrate it. If certain areas of the human brain can be remotely stimulated, then it is not impossible to think of broadcasts literally saturating large territories with a flood of symbols. Such a device could be a major tool of social change. If disguised under a preposterous or “absurd” appearance, its effects would be undetected for a long time. I believe this could be a key to the confrontation with UFOs.”
Jacques Vallée, The Invisible College
