Are the conspiracy theorists right About Planet X?

Posted on 2 September 2022 by Neel Roberts

Back in May 2019, I did a story “Sundogs prove Planet X is Fake News” https://www.ptccanada.com/Space/Universe/Your-Universe-56.pdf basically debunking allegations of its existence. Well in recent months the subject is not only making a comeback but at a more furious rate and in many directions. While it’s tempting to double down, honest reporting at least considers the evidence being presented before doing so. A recent broadcast on http://www.infowars.com between Bart Sibrel of https://sibrel.com and guest host Kate Dalley of https://katedalleyshow.com  break down the secrets of Planet X (AKA Nibiru) https://freeworldnews.tv/watch?id=6244d769ddde4a3db3dd8e77. In a nutshell, Sibrel’s theory is it’s not only out there but been well known for thousands of years to those in the know.

 To a newbie, he sounds like a Gonzo journalist because of his passion but he’s far from alone on the subject. Another Infowars journalist Brian Wilson of Red Pilled TV breaks down the astronomical history of Planet X and its elusive orbit https://www.infowars.com/posts/is-planet-x-headed-toward-earth. Theologian Douglas A Elwell https://planet-x.info has not only spoken on the subject https://www.coasttocoastam.com/article/doug-elwell-planet-x-material/ but has written a book “Planet X, the Sign of the Son of Man” https://www.amazon.com/Planet-Sign-Son-Man-End/dp/0984630015, and the “End of the Age: Planet X at the Creation, Nativity & Second Coming” https://www.amazon.com/Planet-Sign-Son-Man-End/dp/0960096515. 

Sibrel is a very “boots on the ground” correspondent as when he made his 2004 film “Astronauts Gone Wild” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qr6Vcvl0OeU he tracked down many space pilots like Buzz Aldrin, Alan Bean, Eugene Cernan, Edgar Mitchell, Michael Collins, Alfred Worden, Bill Anders, John Young and Neil Armstrong for interviews. Between candid discussions and being thrown out in real time, he got all the testimony just like a Project Veritas exposé. Sibrel also quotes several mainstream media editorials like a
June 13, 1988 Associated Press article “Pioneer 10 Seeks Mysterious Planet X” https://apnews.com/article/932e3432732d511ed725107b76518002 and a recent December 19, 2019 NASA article “Hypothetical Planet X” https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/planets/hypothetical-planet-x/in-depth/.  

I’m convinced of 3 things about Sibrel. First, he’s no gonzo journalist or “conspiracy theorist” given someone falsified a Wikileaks about fake moons landings https://t.me/TheTrueDefender/17200 which so suited his narrative, but he didn’t fall for it. Second, he has all the source evidence which a far cry from mainstream media. Last, No one credible has been able to refute him with evidence, logic, and reason in that order. There’s a YouTuber Gina Maria Colvin Hill https://www.youtube.com/c/GinaMariaColvinHill555 who spends much time analysis anomalies in the sky via public cam shots. She recently featured a possible Nibiru capture https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_o_l94d5Uqk which is not only fascinating but convincing. She’s totally independent and probably doesn’t even know Sibrel. While I’m personally not ready to say “yes” to the Planet X concept, it’s very intriguing, must be further investigated and public debate must be free, not censored. The Best is Yet to Come!
