I. Introduction
UFO-abductions are generally a very strange and complex phenomenon. For skeptics, journalists and the public it is hard to believe that abductions by alien beings have their basis in physical reality. Reports of alien beings entering bedrooms through walls, levitating abductees through closed windows into a waiting craft are hard to believe for the open-minded researcher too. However, well-respected researchers have shown that the core of the UFO-abduction phenomena cannot be explained psychologically, like hallucinations or mass delusions [1].
The passing decades of abduction research brought other changes. Recently some UFO-abductees told that they were also being kidnapped by military/intelligence personnel (MILAB) and taken to hospitals and/or military ground/underground facilities.
Not many of the popular books on the subject of UFO-abductions mentioned these experiences. Especially disconcerting are the facts that abductees recalled seeing military/intelligence personnel together with alien beings working side by side in these secret facilities. The presence of human military and/or civilian personnel inhabiting the same physical reality as the alien beings exceeds the mindsets of the skeptics and the open-minded researchers by several orders of magnitude.
The skeptics would rather believe that stories of aliens and military personnel in governmental underground facilities are fabrications designed to elicit attention from conspiracy believers or as hallucinations in general. Researchers on the field of mind control suggest that these cases are evidence that the whole UFO-abduction phenomenon is staged by the intelligence community as a cover of their illegal experiments [2]. The open-minded researchers who fight for a reputation in abduction research ignore these stories since they represent only a minor fraction in their files [3]. I think that abduction cases where the abductee reports that he/she was abducted by the military too, are very important for two reasons:
If the UFO-community has evidence that a covered military/intelligence task force is involved in the UFO-abduction phenomenon, we would know that this phenomenon represents a matter of national security.
The alleged military involvement in the abduction phenomenon could be evidence that they use abductees for mind control experiments, as test-targets for microwave weapons, or they monitor abductees and kidnap them too, for information gathering purposes during a UFO-abduction experience.
If one of these points are correct, one can expect to run into early resistance when proposing congressional hearings about UFOs. For these reasons I started Project-MILAB and present in this article preliminary findings of this study. MILAB is the acronym for Military Abductions of alleged UFO abductees. I reviewed the relevant literature, contacted UFO and mind control researchers, MILAB-abductees and mind control victims all over the world and compared my findings with the comprehensive UFO-Abduction Study of Dr. Thomas Bullard [4, 5], the MUFON-Transcription-Project [6, 7] and the MIT-Abduction Proceedings [1].
