General Lionel Max Chassin states, “That strange things have been seen is now beyond question, and the “psychological” explanations seem to have misfired.

General Lionel Max Chassin

The number of thoughtful, intelligent, educated people in full possession of their faculties who have “seen something” and described it grows every day. Doubting Thomas’s among astronomers, engineers and officials who used to laugh at “saucers” have seen and repented. To reject out of hand testimony such as theirs becomes more and more presumptuous”
General Lionel Max Chassin was the Commanding General of the French Air Forces, and Air Defense Coordinator of NATO Allied Forces and president of GEPA (1964-1970) (Source: “Above Top Secret” by Timothy Good – Page 173.)

Extraordinary technical capabilities pose challenges to military activity around the globe…..

Several years ago French Admirals and Generals produced the Cometa Report showing declassified government documents claiming that unexplained flying objects with extraordinary technical capabilities pose challenges to military activity around the globe. For example, US fighter jets have attempted to shoot down UFOs, according to North American Aerospace Defense Command logs. Also British, Iranian, Cuban, Soviet, and Peruvian air force planes attempted to shoot down UFOs, and Belgium F-16s armed with missiles pursued a UFO in 1990. Further, the French report says that there have been “visits above secret installations and missile bases in France and other countries,”
Now Michael Cohen writes, France is set to concede that it is aware of an alien presence on earth.” Rumors persist that Paris has chosen to follow the lead of Brazil and resist US pressure to continue delaying disclosure until America feels it is ready for the event. It is believed that a telephone hot-line has been set up in Paris to deal with queries from panicky citizens. A special division of France’s police department is also to be established: to handle UFO reports. http://www.allnewsweb.com/page6916918.php

Although the announcement by France was not released, they have concrete evidence including alien bodies that some UFOs are of ET origin. The French political establishment is fairly apathetic to disclosure, but by no means opposed to it. The current research Minister, Valerie Pecresse is regarded as a reformer and open-minded. The ingredients for disclosure are there. All it would take is those in GEIPAN who have the evidence to convince her that disclosure would result in positive publicity. Thanks to Michael Cohen.

French Cometa “UFOs and Defense: “What Should We Prepare For?”

High-level French officials – including retired generals from the French Institute of Higher Studies for National Defense (IHEDN), a government-financed strategic planning agency – recently took a giant step in openly challenging skepticism about UFOs and ask what should we prepare for?.
1. In a report based on a three-year study, they concluded that “numerous manifestations observed by reliable witnesses could be the work of craft of extraterrestrial origin” and that, in fact, the best explanation is “the extraterrestrial hypothesis.” The COMETA Report was prefaced by General Bernard Norlain of the Air Force, former Director of the IHEDN. The preamble was by Andre’Lebeau, former President of the National Center for Space Studies (Centre National D’études Spatiales), or CNES. The authors of the report were an association of experts, many of whom were or had been auditors (defence and intelligence analysts) of IHEDN. The group was presided over by General Denis Letty of the Air Force, another former auditor of IHEDN. General Bruno Lemoine, Air Force (former auditor of IHEDN)

• Admiral Marc Merlo, (former auditor of IHEDN), Michel Algrin, Doctor in Political Sciences, attorney at law (former auditor of IHEDN)
• General Pierre Bescond, engineer for armaments (former auditor of IHEDN), Denis Blancher, Chief National Police superintendent at the Ministry of the Interior, Christian Marchal, chief engineer of the National Corps des Mines and Research Director at the National Office of Aeronautical Research (ONERA), General Alain Orszag, Ph.D. in physics, armaments engineer. Outside contributors included Jean-Jacques Velasco, head of SEPRA at CNES, François Louange, President of Fleximage, specializing in photo analysis, and General Joseph Domange, of the Air Force, general delegate of the Association of Auditors at IHEDN.

The French group reached that conclusion after examining nearly 500 international aeronautical sightings and radar/visual cases, and previously undisclosed pilots’ reports. They drew on data from official sources, government authorities, and the air forces of other countries. In its conclusion, COMETA claims that the physical reality of UFOs, under control of intelligent beings, is “quasi certain”. Only one hypothesis takes into account the available data: the hypothesis of extraterrestrial visitors. This hypothesis is of course unproved, but has far-reaching consequences. The goals of these alleged visitors remain unknown but must be the subject of speculations and prospective scenarios. In its final recommendations, it stresses again the need to : 1) inform all decision-makers and persons in position of responsibility; 2) reinforce means of investigation and study at SEPRA; 3) have UFO detection taken into account by agencies engaged in of space surveillance; 4) create a strategic cell at the highest state level ; 5) undertake diplomatic action toward the Unites States for cooperation on this “capital question”; 6) study measures which might be necessary in case of emergencies.

Finally, this document is accompanied by seven interesting annexes -1 Radar detection in France -2 Observations by astronomers -3 Life in the Universe -4 Colonization of space -5 The Roswell case – The disinformation (an interesting text which will be criticized by some readers, and welcomed by others, including myself) -6 Antiquity of the UFO phenomenon. Elements for a chronology.-7 Reflexion on various psychological, sociological and political aspects of the UFO phenomenon. The findings are contained in a 90-page report titled “UFOs and Defense: “What Should We Prepare For?” It is apparent these Frenchmen see an apparent threat from aliens.
