Wikileaks claims to have cables that refer to UFO's...

    The quote:
    “Many weirdos email us about UFOs or how they discovered that they were the anti-christ whilst talking with their ex-wife at a garden party over a pot-plant,” he wrote when asked if any of the documents he had received referred to extraterrestrial life.

    “However, as yet they have not satisfied two of our publishing rules.

    1) that the documents not be self-authored;

    2) that they be original."

    “It is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the cablegate archive there are indeed references to UFOs.”

    I suspect that the references will be to UFOs as opposed to extra-terrestrials. People can't identify an object in the sky? It's a UFO. Big whoop.

    They might for example refer to investigations that have been officially denied, or simply incidents that cannot be explained. I suspect , as Dave! said that the net result will be that the cables acknowledge that there is something there that is unexplained rather than offering an explanation (i.e.. ET)

    ...on the other hand, they may go as far as the French COMETA report which concluded that the most likely explanation for the 5% of unexplained cases is the extraterrestrial hypothesis.

    Prepare to be underwhelmed...

    I expect it would be stuff similar to this:

    Not anything to get excited about.
