In an unexpected development pertaining to the evidence rich, but widely censored, Billy Meier UFO contact case in Switzerland, a prominent long time director for MUFON, the most well known international UFO investigation organization, broke ranks with official policy and expressed his support for the Meier case.

George A. Flier, MUFON's Eastern Region Director and a retired Major in the USAF, prominently displayed one of Meier's UFO photographs from the pre-computer 1970s, along with information about high level scientific support for the case. He also endorsed the assessment of authenticity by another trusted military man, the late Lt. Col. Wendelle Stevens, who was the lead independent investigator in the case.

Having followed the Billy Meier case for well over 20 years, I'd tend to agree with George Filer on this, particularly with regards to the seminal work done on the Meier case by the late Lt. Col. Wendell Stevens, in his long out of print book, UFO Contact From the Pleiades.  I say that knowing full well there are a number of significant problems with the Meier case, which are all well documented in the UFO literature.  But my opinion is that the core story is true.  To read the rest of the article, click here.
