Denmark Releases UFO Files

Saturday February 28, 2009
Another country has now released its secret UFO files. The country of Denmark has followed the recent examples of other countries in releasing files that were once consided "top secret." One of the most interesting cases revealed is that of a fifteen-year-old boy who claimed to have seen extraterrestrial entities in the town of Funen in 1982.

On a summer day, the boy was cycling to his summer job at 4:30 AM, when he saw an extremely bright object about 200 feet out in a field. He approached the saucer-shaped object, which was either hovering low, or landed, and saw five small alien beings with large heads. They had appeared from a hatch on one side of the 6 foot wide object.

This case, in addition to many others has been held classified by Captain Thomas Pedersen of the Danish Air Force. The Air Force has released the files because of the many requests, and the fact that, according to Pederson, they really have nothing to hide, and they do not investigate UFO sightings, as a rule.

If this is true, why keep the files top secret for nearly thirty years?

Billy,
I wonder if the reason that governments have kept their records of UFO sightings, etc. secret for years because they were following the United States’ government’s lead? Perhaps in the late ’40’s when the United States was first encountering UFO’s, other governments were also beginning to. Maybe there was consensus, among these governments, that because they didn’t know what was being observed or encountered they decided to investigate but out of the public’s view or access (for whatever reason: to keep the calm, to determine the real threat, etc.)? Adversity is a great ‘uniter’ and maybe the governments around the world felt united behind the United States, which was taking the lead? Now, I think that the British, Canadian, and Danish governments (like the French and others) are releasing a great deal of documents because they’re OK admitting that they’ve researched for years. What aren’t clearly released, yet, are findings. Maybe they’ve left determinations and findings to be made by the public that investigate these various archives?

There seems to be a trend among free nations’ governments! Thanks, Billy! Arlene

You make some worthwhile suggestions, Arlene.

I very much suspect that some governments are more concerned than is apparent about the potential behaviour of various members of the general populace in respect of Alien activity in the locality.

Perhaps the releasing of these various records marks the beginning of a reassessment of potential activity of the general public.

Some people do not take this line of thinking very seriously but I believe that you should be careful about underestimating the potential consequences of Alien visitations having to become an accepted part of reality.

We would not want too much unpreferable behaviour. (Or would you?)

We should be told the truth, whether it’s good or bad..

Perhaps the Danish Goverment considered the ‘evidence’ so uninteresting, boring and redundent that they actually forgot about it!

The whole subject of UFO’s and Aliens is a big tease. Just when it looks like a substantial and genuine sighting has been reported you discover it’s either fake or mistake. If a rational explanation is given it’s a cover up, or a conspiracy, if it’s Chinease Lanterns and no one owns up, it’s alien craft. Such is the suggestibillity of the human mind.

Could the meeting between an American President and alien visitors seriously be covered up? And if this meeting and others like it did take place what kind of understanding was reached? Yes, it’s okay to stand by and watch the human race continue to screw up its ecology, commit war atrocities and permit over half the population to continue to live in squalor, starvation and poverty? If they are out there they don’t seem to be doing much apart from hovering around the skies and either extracting or probing the arseholes of Cattle and Humans! ET is little more than an extraterrestrial version of the Liberal Democrats. Crop circles are nice though, make wonderful posters.

A prize should go to Pat for the funniest line I’ve ever seen on this site…

“ET is little more than an extraterrestrial version of the Liberal Democrats”

I almost fell off my chair laughing.
