There have been times in my life that I have seen “things” up in the sky that appeared to be not of this world. One time I saw this green alien hovering in the air, coming straight for me while I was walking along Loyola Beach. Or at least I thought it to be until I realized that it was just a plane flying a banner for Geico Insurance. So much for little green men.
Just when I am ready to accept the fact that we have not really had any sort of proof positive of alien life or spacecraft, along comes a congressional hearing that made me sit up and take notice.
According to an article in “The Hill”, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), along with a bipartisan group of five other senators, introduced extraordinary legislation on July 13, suggesting that the U.S. government or private contractors may secretly possess recovered UFOs and “biological evidence of living or deceased non-human intelligence.”
Holy Mulder!
The article went on to say that apparently, a large number of whistleblowers have felt the time is right to step forward and make the claim that indeed, there are UAP’s (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) but even more intriguing: "a vast web of individuals and groups” claiming knowledge of secret UAP-related programs and information” exists right out there under our noses.
If only the late, great Art Bell could have lived to see this day.
What is important here is that this bipartisan group has given the green light for green men, by authorizing that the government and private (military) contractors must disclose what they have.
Which leads to the obvious question--will they?
If there are indeed spaceships and aliens--alive and dead, we would have benefitted from that knowledge being made public a long time ago. Perhaps we would have worked a bit harder at the prospect of uniting mankind to either embrace or brace for the presence of these visitors to the planet. Perhaps less war and more peace would have been the answer to have our “Close Encounter” moment.
But so far, it appears that even though people do have experiences, even though on video there are things that defy any rational explanation, no hard evidence is there, i.e., a physical craft or being.
Or if it is there, is it just that we are so far behind these civilizations that we cannot reverse engineer their craft?
One part of the article really piqued my curiosity:
The proposed legislation follows explosive allegations by a former intelligence official, David Grusch, that secret UFO retrieval and reverse-engineering programs were illegally hidden from Congress. Importantly, the powerful investigative body that oversees the nation’s intelligence agencies found Grusch’s allegations to be “credible and urgent.” Moreover, the intelligence community’s first inspector general — appointed by President Obama, confirmed by the Senate and now a high-profile attorney in private practice — represented Grusch as he proceeded through the formal whistleblower process.
The fact that a congressional committee has asked that any records be released doesn’t necessarily corroborate that we have indeed made any kind of contact. It seems that what is coming out is the acknowledgment that the government has had many people looking into the existence of UAP’s. That these people say our government has the evidence. And that is where it stands, their words are “credible and urgent.”
And here is the rub: if there has been this proof and we do know that there are visitors, what do the visitors think about us? Apparently not too much to help us out of the binds we seem to put ourselves in.
Or maybe they are just patient. They like the location but know that they just need to have the inhabitants evict themselves first.
That is the last question I have about the aliens: are they nice?
