Any consideration that they are just as deceitful, have a relation of convenience with human governments, and plan to take over the planet, also, has a great hurdle of logic to surmount before it would make any sense. Ignoring the rest of the historical sightings record, it would be safe to state that they have had a clear presence since the end of World War II. If invasion and control was their goal, they would not have waited several decades, while we advanced in leaps and bounds, militarily and technologically, to initiate such a plan. There can be little doubt that if an extraterrestrial race were to have any relations with human government, they would either be completely naive or just plain stupid. The concept that this is "intelligent" life from another planet makes little sense when reality enters the equation.

Power is the prime directive, which guides the military establishment, and the main thing that a UFO disclosure will most threaten. All military forces will be "outgunned" and perceptively weak in every area, from weapons to technology, and will blindly follow the commands of the governments controlling them. Aggression against a far-superior force will, of course, defy logic, but will probably be the tactic they follow.

Here we must try to determine how the occupants of UFOs will respond to "demands" and acts of aggression from a weaker entity. If history is any example, the military may be saved from any greater harm than is necessary. Despite uncounted numbers of encounters between the military and UFOs, there is no evidence that they even retaliate. Any race of beings with even a modicum of tactical understanding would know that the easiest way to neutralize the power of the military, in this technological age, would be to disrupt the electronics, the computers that seem to control everything, military or otherwise. Take out the satellites, disrupt the communications, and crash the computers and the air forces would be grounded, the navies would be powerless, and the armies would be back to rifles and hand to hand combat, instantly. Just the presence of UFOs, as reported by witnesses, disturbs all things technological anyway.

There is a prediction about a unified world force resisting the takeover of the planet by an overwhelming power, not of earthly origin, in the most widely published book in history, the Bible. Ironically, this battle, which takes place in a valley called Armageddon, and which did not occur in ancient times, describes only massive ground forces and horses, not sophisticated weaponry. Whether it is divine or advanced alien power, the military probably will not, and can not, play a major role in defending the planet. The military would not be thrilled by a power that would effectively make it look weak by comparison, and with such overwhelming strength running the show, the military would be rendered useless.

The true power behind the throne, global corporations, which are controlled by the world's rich and powerful elite, will be the institution to watch. If, as the ancient writings predict, our flying visitors decide mankind is not capable of controlling it's affairs, without destroying itself and threatening the rest of the universe, big business will find its power in extreme danger. Surely, the record written by the drive for profit will serve as testimony for its complete overhaul and the elimination of greed-driven profit standards. Any threats to the chokehold global corporations have over almost every aspect of life will be intolerable and met with the swiftest of resistance.

It is unlikely that, for all their money and power, they will be able to buy or deal their way out of it, and, they have nothing else. Big business will not lay out the welcome mat for a power that could end its dictatorial role over the world and eliminate the concept of the corporation altogether.

And, by listening, they would learn that we are warlike, aggressive, self-serving, crime-ridden, self-destructive, territorial, selfish, and an extremely greedy race. They would know that scandal, violence, deceit, murder, confrontation, and avarice not only infest the planet, but that these undesirable characteristics are actually staples of the inhabitant’s entertainment. They would also find that the leaders of the peoples of Earth are fiercely protective of their own territory and possessions and, they would be shocked and distressed that most of the scientists and brilliant minds are engaged in the two most destructive pursuits on the planet, war and the chemical industry.
