Defense Minister Acknowledges Alien UFO Threat

UFO Defense

After the media attention generated by Chief Cabinet Secretary Nobutaka Machimura’s remarks on the possible existence of UFOs, it was only a matter of time before super otaku Defense Minister Shigeru Ishiba commented on the existence of aliens:

“There are no grounds for us to deny that there are unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and some life-form that controls them,” Ishiba told reporters, saying it was his personal view and not that of the defence ministry.

Ishiba, nicknamed a “security geek” for his wonkish knowledge of defence affairs, noted that Japan deployed its military against Godzilla in the classic monster movie.

“Few discussions have been made on what the legal grounds were for that,” the minister said with a slight grin, drawing laughter from reporters.

Due to the US-imposed 1947 constitution, Japan’s de facto military is known as the Self-Defence Forces and has never fired a shot in combat since World War II.

But Japan has gradually sought a greater global military role, sending troops to support US-led operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Ishiba said he was examining different scenarios for an alien invasion.

“If they descended, saying ‘People of the Earth, let’s make friends,’ it would not be considered an urgent, unjust attack on our country,” Ishiba said.

“And there is another issue of how can we convey our intentions if we don’t understand what they are saying,” he said.

“We should consider various possibilities,” he said. “There is no need at all to do this as the defence ministry, but I want to consider what to do by myself.”

I think it is important to realise that if it is extraterrestrial life, it would be very important to get info on it.

But personnaly speaking technology has evolved to a point where many countries have gained many advancement with which they rely on to spy on others, notably USA. The hype around area-51 (testing ground for UFO’s for the u.s. army) has gained lots of attention through the same concept. I think it would be important to raise such debates in the political debates as the u.s is known to spy on many countries and deny its actions towards doing so.

If this is a spying ufo or not, it is important to find out its origins to protect the people of Japan and other countries.

Don’t be too quick to blow something off especially if you haven’t done any research on the topic. A good place to start is by learning about The Disclosure Project, involving hundreds of “government, military, and intelligence community witnesses testifying to their direct, personal, first hand experience with UFOs, ETs, ET technology, and the cover-up that keeps this information secret.”
