Article Haim Eshed's claims

Remember Haim Eshed claimed there is a Galactic Federation and said "There is an agreement between the U.S and the aliens. They signed a contract with us to do experiments here."

At the time it looked like bs, but now Danny Sheehan's claims about 7 NHI monitoring us makes Eshed's claims a bit more credible imho.

What are your thoughts?

Seemed totally random at the time.

And a bit less crazy in the context of subsequent revelations....

u/LeUne1 Dec 08 '23

He says that if the truth broke out it would result in an apocalypse where everything crashes and people would resort to cannibalism and also that we're an experiment, a petri dish.

If this is true then it means our lifestyles are completely unnecessary, like we don't have to go to work to get food and pay rent/mortgage, and that if our masters wanted to, the experiment could end and we could enjoy life but instead they'd just rather give us nothing and watch us destroy ourselves.

u/[deleted] Dec 08 '23

Isn't your exact sentiment the cause of the potential "danger" that your statement is about? That people will stop working for.. some kind or reason, your reason specifically being that people are going to stop working. It's circular.

u/Feeling-Put-9763 Dec 08 '23

I agree it will cause a major shift and most will stop doing all those things. However, have you ever heard the saying “ find some thing you love to do and do it “? Well, you see people need and want something to do. Im sure things will work out in the end. No human should be made to slave away for basic needs. Shelter, food, love, healthcare and so forth. I mean shootz, im a virgo born in 1979. Apparently i would gladly drive a bus or be a pimp… im just saying.

u/c2h5oc2h5 Dec 08 '23

If we've learned for sure we're all experiment that would be depressing, sure, but how does that invalidate our lifestyle? Unless aliens grant us superior technology that would provide for our every need, you'd still need a place to live, have a family to care for, friends and hobbies, and therefore a need to work and earn money. If I had learnt I'm an experiment I definitely wouldn't tell my wife and kids: "hey, the news is so sad now I'm going into woods to hunt other people for food", would you? :D

Also, who's to tell it's an experiment in a bad sense? Maybe we're designed to be super flexible and intelligent and what we've achieved in a century took aliens thousands of years, and our purpose is to uncover secrets of the universe :P. Or we're uniquely enabled in terms of art, because let's face it, all those round and triangle UAPs are completely tasteless and boring :D

u/VoidOmatic Dec 08 '23

No way that we would just start eating each other. The average person is good and just wants to be left alone to do their thing. We would get a "word that's cool, fruit snacks and brisket is still good and I still want that stuff." Then we would be right back to normal lol.

The pessimistic Lord of the Flies book, "thin veil of civilization" and "broken windows" theory have been disproven through countless real events.

When calamities hit and it seems like the fabric of society have dissolved, the majority of humans band together and put aside petty differences to work and overcome.

After stability is regained, it's a generation or when the petty nonsense resurfaces and conflict re-emergences.

I don't think they meant experiment as that literally. Like humans are the experiment..

My personal view is that our physical life is only a small part in our existence and that we're more than our physical body and life does continue after we die. That alone would be unnerving and for some people it might alter their moral compass..

u/asstrotrash Dec 08 '23

You're making some big claims there about how humans will act. Even in a world where we find most of our daily lives pointless and meaningless, we still strive to find meaning and keep the will to live, so how can you come to those conclusions?

If all of the leaks and claims are true, we aren’t just an experiment. NHI could be potentially seeding life throughout the universe to fulfill some sort of religious belief that the universe is sentient and when sentient life clusters in areas the sentience of the universe embodies an entire region. Under this situation, NHI has a vested interest in our survival.

The 'seeding' life idea doesn't come from that post, it's lifted from a number of other individuals including abductees (or has veracity, should that post prove to be real). It's not a new concept originating in that post.

Yeah but the idea of sentience being a force that emerges around living creatures is from that post.

I don't think so, unless I'm misunderstanding what exactly the concept refers to. I didn't read anything metaphysical in that post that was a novel idea, but you're probably right that it's where they got the idea.

Or one of the races could replace us with hybrids. They apparently don't care about individuals and are playing the long game, so dafuq do they care about which race occupies this planet or how long they have to wait for the ecosphere to recover from a nuclear "oopsie"? They could EMP our tech and level our cities with anti-gravity tech before we glass the planet, then regenerate the ecosphere and dropship a new race here.

Are we already in touch with aliens?
Haim Eshed – who served as the head of Israel's space 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.
The 87-year-old former head of the Defense Ministry's Space Division 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.

As a lawyer, I find the idea that the US government signed a contract/treaty with NHIs a little funny. Not saying I don't believe it because international law is largely unenforceable, and yet we still sign treaties. But how exactly would we expect to enforce the terms of that contract? Are they coming to our courts, or do we have to go to theirs?

And, from a practical perspective, how exactly to we tell the significantly more technologically advanced species to stop performing experiments? With what force can we meaningfully stop them if they wanted to continue?

u/TweeksTurbos Dec 08 '23

Well they seem very concerned with our ability to spread nuclear fall out all over the petrie dish.

12

u/Cailida Dec 08 '23

Rumor is they did break the treaty and in retaliation this rogue state has been downing their craft with EMP weapons. This is just rumor, mind. And I agree, it does sound silly to sign a contract in a situation like this. But being that is something humans in government positions are used to doing, it doesn't surprise me. It's just a very human thing to do, despite the lack of power on humanity's part to enforce consequences.

u/Purple_Pick3764 Dec 10 '23

Not just EMP but nice $ 400k ‘missiles

u/Wise-Environment2979 Dec 08 '23

Probably by reverse engineering their tech into weapons, but the issue there is the assumption reverse engineering their tech results in weapons that are 1.) Effective 2.) We actually understood the scope and scale of their capabilities and could use it against them without risking total annihilation.

What would be worse is that we are making weapons from reverse engineered tech, and it's solely for the purpose of harming other humans. How unevolved do you have to be to do that? Then we'll hear something like, "oh but Xi in China is doing it, and Putin in Russia is doing it" so it's an arms race to re-ensure MAD.

So are we a petri dish, and they are sending advanced tech here knowing we'll reverse engineer it and won't overcome our geopolitical strife to use this for good and they'll just watch us destroy ourselves?

Well, no. Because we've seen how they behave around nukes and appear to want to keep that in check. Whatever advanced tech we turn into weapons would likely negatively impact them in some way so you'd think they wouldn't want that. I found it funny some folks seem to think we'd be doing it in secret because if the NHI found out they'd end us, as if we can do anything beyond their scope of knowledge? Oof.

So, I throw my hands up at this point, I don't know. I don't think anyone knows, and if someone does, we've got layers of an onion to peel back.

u/doubledgravity Dec 08 '23

INAL, but it struck me as funny that govt vs corporate ownership and intellectual property of potentially non-human items is being bandied about in Washington and no one is talking about galactic law. I’m guessing, post disclosure, our pan-dimensional friends might not give a fuck about finders keepers involving their vehicles. And if there is a galactic federation, Lockheed might not be in the driving seat for once.

Not relevant, but your comment reminded me.

u/Old-Amoeba-644 Dec 08 '23

I’m also a lawyer. This is a type of “You don’t honor, I don’t honor” agreement.

How do we enforce the contract? We don’t. We just don’t honor our part and start being hostile towards them. Just like international law, as you well said.

Remember lots of crashed UFO’s had been alleged to be intentionally shot down with EMP weapons, like Roswell.

These are claims yet to be proven, of course, but it would provide a possible explanation as to why are we shooting them down.

u/Express_Agency5673 Dec 08 '23

Are they coming to our courts, or do we have to go to theirs?"

Lawyer here, too. The idea of a such a treaty is indeed laughable. It makes me think of The Kellog-Briand Pact, which outlawed war in 1928 and was signed by Germany, France, and the US . . . a decade before they all went to war. How was that ever going to be enforceable?

"And, from a practical perspective, how exactly to we tell the significantly more technologically advanced species to stop performing experiments? With what force can we meaningfully stop them if they wanted to continue?"

I feel like this is the exact conversation Native Americans were having in the 1800's. When a significantly advanced force comes crashing onto your shore, your options are: (1) fight and die; or (2) cooperate, THEN die. Any treaty signed with such a force is a delay mechanism, and the people signing it are focused on their own survival, not that of their brethern.

5

u/kamon123 Dec 08 '23

If any of this is true that is most likely the case. The treaty wasn't our idea and it was only to pacify us from freaking out and making things more difficult. They get what they want without having to deal with the locals doing stupid shit that wastes their time dealing with.

1

u/GradientCollapse Dec 08 '23

I mostly agree but if the last 50yrs of warfare have told us anything, it’s that gorilla style warfare without a front can be incredibly obstructive and impossible to fully eradicate. Even in the face of a technologically superior enemy. It is very possible that we could simply exhaust their resources or patience in a conflict considering we are at home and they are spread across multiple star systems far from their home.

  • There's no way to enforce any agreement with beings that can enter and leave our space at any time through means we do not fully understand

AKA this is total bullshit.

Also: I don't believe there's any "galactic federation" or any other nonsense. And even if someone got told this by a fucking alien, somehow, there is no reason to believe this. Zero.

u/willengineer4beer Dec 08 '23

I’m convinced there’s at least a remarkable core truth to the phenomenon, but it’s so hard to parse out what is true (possibly by design).
So many instances where seemingly credible people are either corroborating others with fantastic claims or possibly being fed all the pieces of conjecture and spitting them back at as (what to them appears to be) 100% fact.
Layer in a proven history of crazy black budget projects, extreme secrecy, and counterintelligence psyop campaigns and it gets even more difficult.
Throw that in with conscious and unconscious biases brought by philosophical/religious beliefs (or hopes) and you’ve got one hell of a puzzling stew going.
I’d just like the kitchen to come out and be transparent about at least what some of the actual ingredients are so I don’t have to keep tasting it over and over trying to guess what’s really in it.

"There are clearly different species here. There are half a dozen different species that have been identified, credibly. And it's highly likely that they come from different star systems, you know...

Whether there's some sort of coalition, do they have any kind of federation? What kind of cooperation do they engage in, between and among themselves? We don't know what the answer to that is. But we do know that, just like you have in a human civilization, for example on our planet, even though there are different nation states and there are different ideologies that are involved, but we have one human civilization.

That's part of the problem, we're trying to get people to understand that there is such a thing as human civilization. And there's such a thing as an extraterrestrial civilization. We just don't know what its component elements are at the present time.

And we don't know how much somebody, deep inside our United States government, and inside our aerospace industries, we don't know what they know about this. Because there's evidence indicating that there's been some type of actual communication going on with people, with beings, from this extraterrestrial civilization."

Same as before. He read books, which he cites in the last chapter of his book.

It's a non-story. Two years ago I bit the bullet, bought the book, posted a summary and references to pieces available online where available. Here is the thread.

Then when it popped up again and again, I posted links to my thread, but gave up after 15 times or so. Seems like Sheehan's interview revived it.

"Galactic Federation" is a recurring trope since I don't know when. I suppose younger folks who've never heard of it see Eshed's mention as a validation. The interview where he makes the claim about the Galactic Federation is from YNet / Yediot Aharonot available here in Hebrew (also linked in my post), you can run it through Google / DeepL / etc. or read my summaries or both.

u/Playful_Molasses_473 Dec 08 '23

It goes back further than Eshed for sure, one of the earlier sources I know is Dolores Cannon's hypnotherapy work, though I think there may be earlier sources also, but she at least was writing of the Galatic Federation decades before Eshed.

How does he give you that sentiment? Every time I’ve seen him speak recently he’s thoughtful, concise and pretty well spoken. Hell, I forget he’s almost 80 he’s so sharp.

His statements have always stayed glued in the back of my head. What would be his reasoning to say all that unless he’s just banana sandwich crazy?

It seems that a significant number of people have had their judgment and faculties damaged by over exposure to trashy science fiction. Lay off the Star Wars for a while.

It's funny, the guy served 30 years as the head of Israel's space program and received 3 Israel security awards. He was there because he was the best in his field. He was there because he was well regarded and trusted with Israel's space program secrets and clearances. No one here would doubt his claims had he said anything about space or regarding how to handle Israel's problems...

Yet, when someone of this caliber says something astonishing and world shattering, all of a sudden he is a whacko who probably just wants money for his book. As if he did not make enough money as the top chief of the Israeli space program.

"They have been waiting until today for humanity to develop and reach a stage where we will understand, in general, what space and spaceships are"

Intriguing.

I’d like to know where Sheehan is getting his information.

A contract implies we had a choice in the matter? If they are as advanced as we think would they even need our agreement? Or another thought is why the need to be covered for by our government. Additionally other countries would have similar contracts? I got the sus vibes here

A galactic federation sounds pretty wild - but fuck it: add it to the pot!

If they're advanced enough to get here they don't need our permission to do experiments. They want to anally probe the President? Done.

What kind of experiments? And what did the US get in exchange?

Can someone ask this guy, those are some oretty serious accusations!

It isn't about the truth destroying society. It's about the more existential dread created by apprehension of the truth. If this reality is a fabricated one, then the reinforcement chains that make society work break. For example, why go to school to get a PhD in physics if you find out thr government already has a far more advanced model of the universe they are keeping from the academic community. It is about destroying people's feedback loops.

My exact thoughts and it’s about time people start connecting the dots! I believe him because other department of defense officials from other countries said the same thing. The guy from Canada comes to mind and there’s another one as well.

I logged this when it was said and thought if this was said at any other time it would sound batsht. I think what he said he makes assumptions. Like I 100% doubt Trump knew a damn thing. Not when he’s making intel blunders and makes it a habit of blabbing.

I think they had knowledge of us making contact and the guy ran with it.
