World business leaders told flying saucers are real & extraterrestrials exist
Michael E. Salla, Ph.D.
At five thousand dollars a ticket, some business leaders got more than they bargained for when they attended the first day of the Global Competitiveness Forum (GCF) being held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. They were told flying saucers are real, and they had better start thinking about the business implications of extraterrestrial life and technologies. Convened each year by the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority, the GCF brings together business and political leaders to discuss ways of promoting business competitiveness. For the first time at its annual conference, the GCF held a panel discussing UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Titled “Learning from Outer Space” the panel comprised five speakers who all endorsed the view that extraterrestrial life is real, and has many implications for the world as we know it.
The panel was held on January 23, and was a “main plenary” session meaning all GCF participants were able to attend and hear what the experts had to say about UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Up to 1000 participants included business and political elites such as former British and Canadian Prime Ministers, Tony Blair and Jean Chretien; Jim Albaugh, President and CEO of Boeing; Andy Bird, chairman of Walt Disney International; Jared Cohen, Director of Google ideas, and many others. The advice they got was that the issue of extraterrestrial life is real, and they better start paying attention to the business implications. Here’s how the GCF summarized the panel presentations on its website:
Learning from Outer Space – Panel
The unconventional and highly relevant topic of extraterrestrial life forms was addressed by yesterday’s panel discussion “Contact: Learning from Outer Space”. Experts Zoaghloul El-Naggar, Stanton Friedman, Michio Kaku, Nick Pope and Jacques Vallee made compelling cases for the existence of living beings elsewhere in the galaxy, drawing upon empirical evidence, religious theology and logical reasoning.
Mr. Friedman opened his remarks with a bold statement, “Flying saucers are real!” and this summed up the perspective of the panel members. Mr. Pope explored the potential business implications of outer space, such as the profitability of alien branding or sponsorship.
While El-Naggar was also convinced of their existence, he raised the interesting point that it may not be ethical to spend resources trying to contact alien societies when we still face war and poverty in our own society.
Mr. Vallee encouraged more academics to analyze the evidence. However, on behalf of his successful Venture Capital fund, he said, “We are not ready to invest in this type of research, but we think that somebody should.”
The 2011 GCF conference panel on Outer Space has opened the door for world business leaders to seriously consider the implications of evidence concerning UFOs and extraterrestrial life. A graphic summarizing GCF discussions by artist, Sunni Brown (top right), reveals the prominence given to issues of extraterrestrial contact and the overwhelming changes new energies will bring to humanity. Business leaders are poised to do what political leaders have so far failed to do – proactively deal with compelling evidence that we are being visited by galactic civilizations who have advanced technologies to share with humanity.

I invite all who read this to consider a Shift in Consciousness requires leaving the vibrations of Judgment, Guilt, Greed, Power, Competition, Blame and Shame and moving into the vibrations of Love, Compassion, Kindness, Harmony, Abundance, Joy and Unity.
In this way we move into a Compassionate Conscious Collaboration without Competition. These are 5th Dimensional Energies and the Frequency we are here to anchor on Earth.
This article and conference is a wake up call to all of Humanity to EVOLVE OR BECOME EXTINCT as a species.
There are many Galactic and Celestial Brothers and Sisters who are here to assist us in that process. LIGHT WILL PREVAIL THROUGH RADIANT LOVE (Divine Creator “SOURCE” Energy) and We are that LIGHT.

Being the publisher of a magazine and doing my own investigative journalism I have been drawn to several people lately to interview them. You could call me a discerning optimist because for reasons that are personal, I know we are not alone but I also know that most of the stories out there are from people just wanting attention and government dis-information.

@harv: did they anal probe you?

Dr. Salla,
I have studied the characteristics of UFO incursions into our sensitive N-Weapons infrastructure since WW2. There is a definite response to our ratcheting the ante during the cold war, responses that closely followed policy changes and decisions. You must be somewhat aware of that. It goes somewhat beyond the work of Robert Hastings, although without his work of laying the solid foundation, it would be difficult to present the material (that is yet in its infancy).
I get the strong impression that there are multiple possibly competing agendas, or agendas that are fundamentally incompatible.
When Bud Duvall and Alex Wendt did their paper on Sovereignty and the UFO, some very important points were brought up with regards to how the people of this planet might be able to deal with this peculiar situation. Planetary Sovereignty would require a cohesive global leadership entity that would establish such a sovereignty through strong legal language and reiterate that the peoples of this planet have the right to and practice free will. I am not sure the U.N. is the right body for that, but it is what we have right now.
In doing this, we could be making others aware of our position, possibly the same races or entities who gave us those rights in the first place. Even so, it is an action whose time has come. I don’t believe that all that are visiting this planet have our best interest in mind, and the only way to deal with the situation is to establish the legal means to do so.
I do not suggest a global government – I have strong doubts that would ever work. Something more like the U.N., but stronger and having the support of the vast majority of nations involved, but especially including USA, Russia, UK, France, and China, the original 5 declared N-States. Of course, the non-declared states should be included only if they go along with the actions of the first 5. (India, Pakistan, Isreal, and any nations currently entertaining entering the fray)
The N issue is a major reason the activity started off with a bang during and after WW2. It is apparent in the sighting databases but becomes very relevant when comparing that data to the history of the N issue and the decisions that the states made regarding the competitive aspect – and who would gain the most by harboring these insidious devices. Today it is apparent that the losers are all those held hostage by this menace, and the winners, well there are none, really.
Those who are here monitoring those devices, warning us and demonstrating the capacity to interfere and render these devices inoperable are doing us a favor and our leaders are not paying much attention.
If it takes the same industries (who likely will benefit from future sales) that received funds for R and D regarding this technology, possibly in the form of black ops funds, to get us into the realm of excepting the ET presence, then so be it. The government has blown the opportunity – it is now slipping away. I am not a fan of industry calling the shots, but I hold that it may happen that our current economic model that enslaves the majority of the populations cannot last in an environment where we may receive advice or help from these entities. It is my observation, given the invocation of our legal sovereignty, that we will witness a change of the global economic model we currently utilize. It may not happen in my lifetime, but it is out there, many have spoken about it who have had contact. That influence could be a part of agreements put in place to get our planet back on a life sustaining track.
There is much going on in vey recent times – the world is opening up to these new possibilities. There is also much knowledge of this that has existed for a very long time in some of our most exalted institutions, and it is likely that much discussion has already taken place as to how this will all come out. We are living in an interesting time, aren’t we?

Wake up. We don’t “need” ET for free-energy, or anything else. What we “need” is for the global sicko elites and their various “gate-keepers” in science and academia and the mainstream media to get off our backs and stop retarding human progress. Tesla “free energy” technology is a century old. The 20th century could have been a “golden age” WITHOUT “ET’s” help. Instead we got the darkest, bloodiest century of human history, thanks to our political and “business” leaders, and NO thanks to “ET,” who apparently just sat back and watched the show. Benevolent ETs are welcomed. Malevolent, exploitative ETs, like our current Earth leadership, are not. Here’s an idea: How about leaving the human race the hell alone?

Extraterrestrials are here for the one and only thing they can’t manufacture in factories or nuclear reactors on, or mine from asteroids orbiting, their planets: the unique life forms that evolved here. They’re harvesting us, exotic life forms, and trading us around the universe (Betty Hill’s Star Map of “Trade Routes”). America business will like this if they’re not already involved. A cover-up in this case makes perfect sense. Whoever believes that the Extraterrestrials are avoiding public contact and quarantining us because we’re too violent at this stage of our development to join the intergalactic community is one bottle short of a six-pack.

when are business leaders going to confront the Technocracy’s attitude and modus operandi in space? NASA has bombed the Moon, nuked Jupiter with a spent nuclear engine, sent Rovers to both mars and Venus uninvited, and plans to nuke Saturn, an inhabited sphere. When are business leaders going to confront this lawless behavior on the part of covert ops in this country? Absolutely UNCIVIL.

There are already companies that know all about the alien thing. I know of one electronics manufacturer that is named after an alien planet and nobody seems to know it. But sure enough, I was given the planet name in a contactee experience years back and the company with the same name had new-agey slogans on its packaging that made the connection clear.

The mercenary approach is too bad. On the other hand, it’s good news in this sense: when the most mercenary elements calculate their benefit on the basis of a certain paradigm, you can be sure that paradigm is bound to become common sense. Same way with insurance companies embracing the reality of climate change in their calculations. They’re not tree-hugging environmentalists, but their endorsement validates the environmentalist take on global warming. Same thing here: when the businessmen hedge their bets toward disclosure and engagement with ETs, that’s a sign that the idea will become conventional.

They’ve got to be kidding. “Branding” ET? That’s just what we need, turn over ET technology and merchandising to the same greedy, lying fuc*ers who’ve been cheating and lying to us all along. If this is the kind of “progressive thinking” going on at Exopolitics they can go to hell. Let’s hope ET’s smarter and more discerning than we are. $5,000 a plate dinners. Sickening, whorish, and predictable.

As an abductee from many decades ago and close follower of UFOs, black triangles and the like, I find it somewhat humorous that the pres. and CEO of Boeing was in attendence. Doesn’t everybody know that Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Northrup have the lock on the triangles. Of course, they will start commercially selling those things any day. Just as soon as they are acknowledged as being our craft. But there remains that thorny problem of how we obtained that technology.
But as we see with this article, the topic is slipping more and more into legitimate business and discussions.
