Did UFOs disarm nuclear weapons? Former U.S. airmen say yes

At an unusual press conference recently held in Washington, D.C., a UFO author and a half-dozen or so former U.S. military airmen asserted that "The U.S. Air Force is lying about the national security implications of unidentified aerial objects at nuclear bases and we can prove it."

They claim that since 1948, extraterrestrials in spaceships have not only been visiting Earth but hovering over British and American nuclear missile sites and temporarily deactivating the weapons.

Hastings claims that a global conspiracy exists in which all major governments have been covering up evidence of UFOs for decades. [Top 10 Conspiracy Theories]

Despite claims that the airmen were "breaking their silence," there was very little new information presented at the press conference; in fact many of the UFO reports they cited date back 30 or 40 years, and had appeared in magazine articles, books, and websites. Instead of any new evidence or real proof they offered merely a rehashing of old, discredited reports that didn't yield any significant evidence when they were originally reported decades ago.

These "revelations" in fact raise more questions than they answer.
For example, if extraterrestrial intelligences have been watching over humanity and are so concerned about nuclear weapons, why didn't they prevent the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War II? Preventing those bombs from exploding - instead of demonstrating the atom's awesome destructive power to the world - could have been a much more effective way to head off a nuclear arms race.

I believe there's a cover-up.

There are many good accounts, videos and photos that are too strange to be craft of this world or natural, occurring phenomenon.

Whether the UFO's de-activated the ICBMs or not is questionable. It may simply be an indirect cause of their presence (electro-magnetic energy pulse, whatever - apparently, the presence of UFO's has been associated with power outtages, electrical glitches, etc.). OTOH, maybe they were testing their disarming capabilities or anti-missile defence systems?

As for stopping the atomic bombs of WWII, I don't think that ETs would interfere with the inhabitants of another world, unless it was necessary to save their own lives. Just like we don't interefere with life on game reserves, National Parks, etc., ETs may have a policy of non-interference, assuming they're benevolent.
