Reports are heating up modems across the internet of a UFO crashed into the East China Sea off the coast of Japan’s southernmost island, Okinawa. A spokesman for the Imperial Navy had this to say to accompany a photo of the object.

“We wanted to release this photo to the world and confirm the reports issued yesterday,” said Japanese Navy spokesman Yoshido Hari. “This picture will give credence to what some of our citizens living on Okinawa witnessed yesterday. We clearly still have many days of salvaging ahead of us but we will take our time and bring the aircraft up in one piece. We must preserve the object as much as possible.”

Because governments and military officials around the world are unilateral in following a policy of disclosure when it comes to contact with alien technology.

“This is not a joke,” said Hari, speaking candidly to reporters. “We have clear evidence at the bottom of the ocean that indicates UFO presence. What the world once thought virtually impossible is now a reality. It is up to us to preserve that reality in order to study the structure of the vessel and perhaps even the alien lifeforms inhabiting it.”

Several scientists from the United States have already been dispatched by the U.S. government and will arrive in Tokyo sometime today. It is unclear, however, if the vessel will be moved to the capital city for further study and research or if it will remain housed in a hangar on Okinawa.

So at least we are assured it is not a joke. Except…

A spokesman for the Imperial Navy would have a rank and that rank would absolutely be given in a report from a culture as class and rank conscious as Japan. I love the term “scientists” as if we are in a 1950’s B-Movie. Obviously the perpetrator of this story cannot give names because those will be Googled and reveal the lie, and really they do not seem to know who to actually send, aerodynamic engineers, divers, physicists, botanists (I still love “The Thing” 1951 version) or possibly they just mistook Scientologists.

Anyway…

In September of this past year, well, 2012 for those of you who may have come late to the game, this report of a UFO visible on Google Earth Street View from Jacksonville Texas made the rounds.

Japanese news sources are concerned about their current elections, missile testing by Korea and a job interviewer who tried to kiss and fondle an applicant. Despite a press release by the Imperial Navy and photo of a UFO submerged in their territorial waters, there is not one word of this story in their news. At least not what has been translated into English.

There are always going to be people who give blanket belief to a story like this and cry cover-up, though I am not sure how you call a press release and photograph a cover-up, but they will. I anticipate hearing Giorgio Tsoukalos and Stanton Friedman putting a seal of approval on this one with full support of Erich von Däniken and Bob Lazar. But until these pillars of UFO research come forward I will not hold my breath about this one.
