United Nations, NY (PRWEB) January 1, 2006 -- For the first time in almost 27 years, the United Nations General Assembly will be debating the issue of establishing diplomatic relations with advanced Extraterrestrial Civilizations that may now be visiting Earth. On December 16, 2005, a Resolution to establish a United Nations Decade of Contact was formally transmitted to the incoming President of the General Assembly, H.E. Jan Eliasson of Sweden by the Institute for Cooperation in Space (ICIS), a Non-Governmental Organization. President Eliasson was Sweden's Ambassador to the United Nations from 2000 to 2005.
Almost to the day twenty-seven years ago, on December 18, 1978, the United Nations General Assembly voted to approve decision 33/426, inviting U.N. Member States "to take appropriate steps to coordinate on a national level scientific research and investigation into extraterrestrial life, including unidentified flying objects, and to inform the Secretary-General of the observations, research and evaluation of such activities." Then U.S. President Jimmy Carter then supported the U.N. General Assembly's decision. Carter himself had a close Encounter of the First Kind with a UFO (Night Light) in October 1969, in the company of 10 members of the Leary, Georgia Lion's Club while he was running for Governor of Georgia. Four years later, while Governor of Georgia, Carter filed a public UFO sighting report, dated September 18, 1973.
United Nations Decade of Contact Former Canadian Minister of Defence, Hon. Paul Hellyer has requested that the Canadian Parliament hold hearings on the issue of relations with Extraterrestrial civilizations.

"Then U.S. President Jimmy Carter then supported the U.N. General Assembly's decision."
Somehow, this doesn't surprise me, but how did he find the time to do this when he was so busy figuring out the White House tennis court schedule?

Would we rather have weapons above our heads or A transformation of the war industry into a peaceful World Cooperative Space Industry?
'Nuff said.

This will insure that no contact is made. Everyone knows ETs seek intelligent life and that is not to be found at the UN.

We're screwed if we do.....and screwed if we don't.
Let's see....the Reptilians basically want us for food....and the Greys treat us like lab rats...we pissed them off to no end when the firefight broke out with them in Dulce...
Our only hope is the Nordic types....but they're a little standoffish of late.....
Maybe that Canadian General was right last month....we better batten down the hatches before the coming "Star Wars".
(sorry...too much holiday drinking going on here)....LOL
HAPPY NEW YEARS to all FReepers!

UN attacking independence of the USA again!
Though it may shame us to admit it, California, Connecticut and Massachusetts are still part of the United States Of America.
The United Nations cannot establish separate diplomatic ties with them.

So, now the UN wants to set up diplomatic relations with little green men. They must have been buying drugs with all that oil-for-food money. Maybe they're going through detox and seeing things. This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

ET will likely come in here to kill or take us overI really doubt they would spend enormous amounts of capital and resources, possibly spend many years in transit just to attack. That would be easier done with robotic craft built to simply fling asteroids in our direction.

I might be silly, but how about we simply treat them to dinner when they get here?

"If ET is Advanced enough to make it here. Then they are looking for resources,in a place to take over. "
If they are advanced enough to come here then they are probably advanced enough to create matter by forming it atom by atom.
If that's the case then all they'd need is a star with an asteroid belt.
In any event, the majority of human interactive entertainment concerns itself with the wholesale slaughter of aliens. Would you want to take on a group of folks who's primary mode of youthful fun is the butchering of you and similar species?

In order to facilitate, we should build a new UN building on the Moon and send all the delegates there to live. We'll send them some canned peas every 6 months via giant rubber band.

I don't think that the UN dealing with ET would be a good idea period...
