Gently changing topic—I just listened to the Knapp/Corbell interview of John Alexander (https://podbay.fm/p/weaponized-with-jeremy-corbell-and-george-knapp/e/1702972860) and it was amusing imho.
Alexander knew all these senior officials who genuinely knew nothing about the UFO/alien/crash retrieval topic even though their access to special access programs had to require such knowledge—at least from the job description.
The UFO community has been screaming for decades that “the rules” don’t apply on this topic—hard to imagine a smart guy like Alexander didn’t “get it”.
I think some of those folks were lying to Alexander—but my guess is that 70%+ were telling the truth—they were not read in on this stuff.
It looks like one way folks got to be “on the team” were family connections—it was difficult to “break into” the secret-keepers without those once the security apparatus was in place.
The abduction stories seem to indicate that most (all?) of the secret-keepers had abduction experiences during child-hood—so again if you had no such experience you were already disqualified from the “program”.
Very interesting point.
I have heard some abductees say that MANY (millions and millions of) people around the world have been abducted but they are completely unaware of their experiences because these memories are buried too deeply to be uncovered with regressive hypnosis.
And even those like Garry Nolan who remember seeing small gray men in their bedrooms as children might have been abducted quite regularly but can't remember it. Nolan speaks of having downloads of ideas (from his abductors) that have been used in his career as an immunologist at Stanford. He credits these downloads for his patent ideas. On top of that, he is often introduced as a Nobel Prize nominee (for immunology I presume). I wonder if he attributes that to downloads.;-)
