Dr. Steven Greer suggested that the blockbuster film “Independence Day” was inspired by covert government plans to fabricate an alien invasion as a means to establish global control.
Dr. Greer posits that these narratives, portrayed as thrilling cinematic experiences, could be rooted in a calculated psychological operation (psyop) by intelligence agencies. He cites the movie’s plot—where global unity is achieved against a common extraterrestrial enemy—as reminiscent of real techniques outlined in projects like “Project Blue Beam.”
Dr. Greer recalls his experience of being invited to speak to first graders in North Carolina around 30 years ago, where even at that time, children were influenced by the prevailing alien abduction narratives. He argues that media, films, and orchestrated events have saturated public consciousness with the fear of extraterrestrial threats, masking real military operations involving man-made UFOs. According to Dr. Greer, this psyop serves to distract and conceal the truth behind legitimate unexplained phenomena, highlighting a long-standing manipulation of public perception.
