AI-Generated Summary
The article reports on the 1990 Belgian UFO flap, specifically the 'Belgian Triangle' sightings. It suggests a correlation between these sightings and the strategic political and military importance of Brussels.
This article, published in UFO Magazine in 1991, discusses the wave of UFO sightings in Belgium that began in 1990. The author, James R. Black, describes the phenomenon as a 'Belgian Triangle'—a mysterious flying wing observed by thousands of witnesses. The article highlights the Belgian Air Ministry's atypical response to these events, noting that they sought assistance from local ufologists. Black argues that these sightings are not random, suggesting that UFO reports frequently congregate around strategic targets such as high-tech research labs, military proving grounds, and nuclear test sites. He emphasizes the geopolitical significance of Brussels, noting its role as the headquarters of NATO and the European Community, and suggests that the UFO phenomenon may be making a deliberate impression on the emerging European power structure. The article concludes by speculating that by the end of 1992, Brussels would become the centerpiece of the new Europe.
The Belgian flap is not yet over, but it has already taken its place as one of the most consistent, well documented, long lasting, and downright brazen events in UFO history.
