New Delhi: In a startling claim, a former Israeli space security chief has disclosed that extra-terrestrials not only exist, but the US has also in fact been dealing with them for years, and that US President Donald Trump is aware of this.
Haim Eshed, the 87-year-old former head of Israel’s Defense Ministry’s space security directorate, has disclosed this in an interview with Yediot Aharonot, a Hebrew newspaper. Humans have been in contact with the aliens from a “Galactic Federation” but the aliens had asked them not to reveal as it could lead to public hysteria, media reported.
The aliens felt that humanity was not yet ready to accept them and needed to “evolve and reach a stage where we will… understand what space and spaceships are,” Eshed said.
He also said US President Donald Trump was aware of the aliens’ existence and was on the “verge of revealing it” but the Federation prevented him from doing so.
Eshed, also a professor and a retired general, claimed that the aliens were equally curious about humanity and were looking to understand the “fabric of the universe”. The cooperation agreements they “signed” with the (earth’s) astronauts included an “underground base in the depths of Mars”. American astronauts and alien representatives were present there, he claimed.
Asked what prompted him to reveal it all now, Eshed said the reason was that the academic landscape has evolved. “If I had revealed it five years ago, I would have been hospitalized,” he said. “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’s claims are being seen in the light of what Trump had said this year. In May, the US President had said that space will be the future for humans, both in terms of defense and offense and that the US was the leader on space. He also created a “Space Force”, as the fifth branch of the US Armed Forces.
In 2018 also, Trump had ordered to set up an American Space Command. In his memorandum to Secretary of Defence Jim Mattis, the US President had said a more “comprehensive list of authorities and responsibilities” for the new “unified combatant command” will be released soon.
According to media reports, the Galactic Federation is said to have been in touch with Israel and the US for years but is keeping itself hidden to prevent mass hysteria among the unprepared humans.
In his latest book, The Universe Beyond the Horizons—Conversations with Professor Haim Eshed, the ex-chief revealed how the aliens have prevented nuclear apocalypses and “when we can jump in and visit the Men in Black,” The Jerusalem Post reported.
