236. Try Googling General Bruno Lemoine

Thu Jan 1, 2015, 01:36 PM

Jan 2015

So I tried to do some research on the people on the COMETA report list and there is so little information on them that I am starting to wonder if they are even real people.

You would think that someone who rose to the rank of General in the Air Force would have some articles on Google related to his service in the Air Force but I found nothing, virtually everything with this guy's name in it was related to the COMETA report.

There was only one thing I was able to find about a Bruno Lemoine in military service. He did not serve in the Air Force however and he was not a general, he was a soldier that served under Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802.

Now maybe someone can find some additional info to prove to me that there really was a Bruno Lemoine that served as a General in the Air Force, but I can't even find anything outside of the COMETA report that even refers to such a person. It appears to me that his name was pulled out of French history and cited as an author if the COMETA report even though he probably doesn't actually exist.

If someone can prove to me this person actually exists I will listen to them, but until then I have to assume the list of names is a fraud.

No, but you can make your own photos if you'd like. zappaman Dec 2014 #8

I prefer reading about the real thing - photographs of UFOs. Octafish Dec 2014 #14

I could take a photo like that... Archae Dec 2014 #15

I had something like that happen years ago. A friend and I were walking into a RKP5637 Dec 2014 #158

Oh brother... zappaman Dec 2014 #22

Now there you go, making sense... Archae Dec 2014 #24

Because one looks like another doesn't make them the same, does it, zappaman? Octafish Dec 2014 #27

So say the gullible. zappaman Dec 2014 #28

Gullible, like me and Jimmy Carter? Octafish Dec 2014 #40

yes, Carter saw something he could not identify zappaman Dec 2014 #44

So, why the big need to denigrate me for expressing an interest in the subject, zappaman? Octafish Dec 2014 #55

I can read fine, Brad. I can even read your insults, as always. zappaman Dec 2014 #86

You may, but you don't act like you can read. I've answered twice already. Octafish Dec 2014 #112

Sorry Brad but I'm not angry and you're not answering simple yes or no questions. zappaman Dec 2014 #114

So now I have to answer what you want. Octafish Dec 2014 #117

No it's called a discussion. I even answered first to show you how it's gone. zappaman Dec 2014 #122

It requires more than 'yes' or 'no' because there are things I 'don't know.' Octafish Dec 2014 #131

Carter UFO discussed on DU in 2004... Octafish Jan 2015 #353

The interview is in 2007 and he says it wasn't an alien spacecraft. zappaman Jan 2015 #358

Numbers are hard for you, too? 2004. Octafish Jan 2015 #363

Apparently your reading comprehension needs works... tammywammy Jan 2015 #365

edhopper, zappaman, Longship, TammyWammy... Octafish Jan 2015 #367

Yes we know. zappaman Jan 2015 #369

Sigh, yes I knew it was from 2004. tammywammy Jan 2015 #374

But this ignores the undoubted fact that space aliens are not visiting Earth. longship Jan 2015 #375

So your error smearing me is the only thing worth putting into your DU Journal? Octafish Jan 2015 #377

Actually, that was an accident. tammywammy Jan 2015 #382

Do you think edhopper Jan 2015 #290

Do you think it's OK to smear someone to make a point? Octafish Jan 2015 #291

What was the smear exactly. edhopper Jan 2015 #292

He just wants you to get the his smear right. zappaman Jan 2015 #301

I just wondered how Klass edhopper Jan 2015 #316

Klass pooh poohs UFOs being alien in origin. zappaman Jan 2015 #317

No 'Conspiracy Theorist.' Stanton Friedman is a good man, a scientist. Octafish Jan 2015 #348

I meant edhopper Jan 2015 #349

Disinformation. It adds noise and drowns out the signal. Octafish Jan 2015 #350

I didn't ask you to explain edhopper Jan 2015 #351

No theory to it. That's what U-Chicago wrote about one of its graduates. Octafish Jan 2015 #354

Link? edhopper Jan 2015 #357

So does kooky conspiracy shit. zappaman Jan 2015 #359

Why the need to smear, zappaman? I wrote what the science and witnesses reported. Octafish Jan 2015 #379
