Former Israeli space security chief says aliens exist,
humanity not ready
This "Galactic Federation" has supposedly been in
contact with Israel and the US for years, but are keeping themselves a secret
to prevent hysteria until humanity is ready.
Has the State of Israel made contact with aliens?
According to retired Israeli general and current professor Haim Eshed, the answer is yes, but this has been kept a secret because "humanity isn't ready."Speaking in an interview to Yediot Aharonot, Eshed – who served as the head of Israel's space security program for nearly 30 years and is a three-time recipient of the Israel Security Award – explained that Israel and the US have both been dealing with aliens for years.
And this by no means refers to immigrants, with Eshed clarifying the existence of a "Galactic Federation."
The 87-year-old former space security chief gave further descriptions about exactly what sort of agreements have been made between the aliens and the US, which ostensibly have been made because they wish to research and understand "the fabric of the universe." This cooperation includes a secret underground base on Mars, where there are American and alien representatives.
If true, this would coincide with US President Donald Trump's creation of the Space Force as the fifth branch of the US armed forces, though it is unclear how long this sort of relationship, if any, has been going on between the US and its reported extraterrestrial allies. But Eshed insists that Trump is aware of them, and that he was "on the verge" of disclosing their existence. However, the Galactic Federation reportedly stopped him from doing so, saying they wished to prevent mass hysteria since they felt humanity needed to "evolve and reach a stage where we will... understand what space and spaceships are," Yediot Aharonot reported.
As for why he's chosen to reveal this information now, Eshed explained that the timing was simply due to how much the academic landscape has changed, and how respected he is in academia.
"If I had come up with what I’m saying today five years ago, I would have been hospitalized," he explained to Yediot.
He added that "today, they’re already talking differently. I have nothing to lose. I’ve received my degrees and awards; I am respected in universities abroad, where the trend is also changing."
Eshed provided more information in his newest book, The Universe Beyond the Horizon – conversations with Professor Haim Eshed, along with other details such as how aliens have prevented nuclear apocalypses and "when we can jump in and visit the Men in Black." The book is available now for NIS 98.
While it is unclear if any evidence exists that could support Eshed's claims, they did come just ahead of a recent announcement by SpaceIL, the group behind Israel's failed attempt to land a spacecraft on the moon in 2019.
Uploaded to social media with the text "Ready to get excited again?," the announcement contained a 15-second video of the moon with text saying "Back to the Moon," followed by the date of December 9, 2020.
It is likely that this is a follow up to the Beresheet spacecraft, which crashed after engineers lost contact with it just minutes before it was due to land. However, the follow up project, titled Beresheet 2, is expected to take three years to be ready.
But sadly, we may never know the truth.The Jerusalem Post was unable to reach out to this supposed Galactic Federation for comment. Jerusalem Post Staff contributed to this report.

The more we focus on identity politics the more we befoul MLK's advice. Concentrate on the content of a person's character and competence. Biden is demonstrating what a fool he is by dividing everyone into categories.
Shades of Gray: America’s Lost Memory
By Sherwin Pomerantz
Watching what is happening in America today can most easily be described as a failure to understand that the world is not black and white but rather various shades of gray. That’s what America used to be and why it was so successful. However, today everything is seen as either black or white, yes or no, good or bad. There is no longer any gray, any maybe or any not so good or not so bad. Moreover, that state of affairs could very well be the catalyst for America’s decline.
America’s strength over the past 244 years has been the ability of the political establishment and the population in general to see the gray, to see the possibility that choices were not always either/or but rather something in between. That ability made it possible for the democratic political experiment to thrive in the United States more so than it did at any time in world history. Yet today, it is at risk of unraveling.
There is a surfeit of current examples that illustrate this and are in plain sight for everyone to see.
During the recent presidential campaign, for example, there was an effort to paint the Democratic Party as one committed to socialism that, if it regained power, would destroy the capitalist system. While that may have made for effective political sloganeering, the fact is that probably every thinking candidate knew that this was anything but the truth. The best run countries in the world are a mix of democratic principles liberally sprinkled with socialist benefits. After all, it really is possible for a democracy to make it feasible for everyone to have access to affordable health care and affordable education as well. Israel and a host of European countries are doing this quite well without the fear factor that has been nurtured in America.
On the issue of finding the gray area in the legislative process in America, the installation of Newt Gingrich as the Speaker of the US House of Representatives in January 1995 set the stage for politicians to see the opposition as the enemy, with all that this entails. As McKay Coppins wrote in The Atlantic in November, 2018: “During his two decades in Congress, he (Gingrich) pioneered a style of partisan combat—replete with name-calling, conspiracy theories, and strategic obstructionism—that poisoned America’s political culture and plunged Washington into permanent dysfunction. Gingrich’s career can perhaps be best understood as a grand exercise in devolution—an effort to strip American politics of the civilizing traits it had developed over time and return it to its most primal essence.” Given Gingrich’s well-known love of the animal kingdom, it is not surprising that his mantra has been that the strong should rule over the weak regardless of the havoc that may ensue as a result.
Earlier in his career, at a gathering of college Republicans in Atlanta on June 24, 1978 he said, “One of the great problems we have in the Republican Party is that we don’t encourage you to be nasty. We encourage you to be neat, obedient, and loyal, and faithful, and all those Boy Scout words, which would be great around the campfire are lousy in politics.” For their party to succeed, Gingrich went on, the next generation of Republicans would have to learn to “raise hell,” to stop being so “nice,” to realize that politics was, above all, a cutthroat “war for power”—and to start acting like it. Therefore, “reaching across the aisle” which was once a badge of honor on the part of legislators in order to find the gray between the black and the white and achieve compromise has now morphed into a cutthroat war for power.
But, it was not always this way. What made America functional, what made it possible for the democratic experiment to prosper so that America could be that successful noble experiment in universal freedom was the acknowledgement of the gray and respect for the opinions of others. In biblical times Hillel and Shammai might have had opposing opinions on a subject but God’s judgement was that they were both correct even though the opinion of only one of them could prevail. However, both opinions were heard.
Former president Harry Truman said in a message to the US Congress on August 8, 1950: “Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear."
The way back will be an uphill climb but America has faced tough challenges many times before and prevailed. Let us hope it is up to the task on this one as well as the price of failure is civil war, an option too frightening to contemplate.

Biden wants his Cabinet to look like America. America is in foul shape. With every decision and prospective Cabinet choice he displays his stupidity.
Biden’s Identity Health-Care Pick
Becerra’s only qualification is that he sued Trump many times. The Editorial Board
Joe Biden checked two Democratic boxes—Hispanic and lefty—on Monday by tapping California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to run Health and Human Services. Progressives are ecstatic, but Mr. Becerra’s views and lack of health-care experience are cause for close Senate confirmation scrutiny.
The Democratic identity politics crowd has been clamoring for Mr. Biden to appoint another Hispanic to his cabinet in addition to Alejandro Mayorkas at Homeland Security. Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo had been a top contender for HHS, but she was vetoed by progressives as too white, too moderate and apparently also too qualified
Mr. Becerra is none of those. The AG served 24 years in the House before being selected in 2016 by former Gov. Jerry Brown to replace Kamala Harris after she was elected to the Senate. In Congress he was a staunch progressive, co-sponsoring Medicare for All bills before the idea was in Democratic fashion.
He signed a letter in 2016 urging the Obama HHS to use “march-in rights” to invalidate drug-maker patents for medicines whose research was partly government funded. This could encompass most drugs. Earlier this year he pushed the Trump Administration to confiscate Gilead’s patent for its Covid antiviral remdesivir.
The AG has also taken up the secular left’s battering ram against religious conscience protections for health-care providers. In National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra (2018), he defended a state law requiring prolife pregnancy centers to provide notices to women about publicly funded abortion. The Supreme Court ruled against him 5-4.
The Biden team is trying to dispel Republican unease by saying he won’t impose Medicare for All. Yet he supports federal waivers to let states implement single-payer and wants to expand government control over health care far more than the Obama Administration did.
He is likely to reject waivers allowing states more flexibility to manage their Medicaid programs. He’d roll back Trump HHS regulations expanding short-term health plans, protecting religious liberty of providers, and increasing choice in Medicare Advantage. In sum, he will use government funds as a stick against insurers, providers and states.
The area where he could do most damage is drug innovation. Medicare price controls that the Trump HHS jammed through last month are likely to be enjoined by courts, but Mr. Becerra has shown he also wants to bully drug makers in ways that would limit access to new medicines.
Mr. Becerra’s selection is what happens when identity and ideology trump experience and expertise. He is Mr. Biden’s most disappointing choice so far.

Brave Obama appointee, Judge Sullivan, dismisses case against Gen. Flynn after Trump pardons him. At least Judge Sullivan is not a fireman. Day late, hose short.
