Great link—I enjoyed it.
I have one for you:

Scroll down to the Wilson/Davis memo discussion with Joe Murgia, Part 1 and 2. This memo was put in the Congressional Record by Congressman Gallagher, R, Wisconsin.
The text of the memo if you have not seen it:

This is amazing stuff.
Wilson denies everything—but who knows what he will say if Congress gives him national security oath immunity and puts him under oath.
Very familiar with the Wilson memo (including Gallager's insertion into Congressional hearing, Garry Nolan's comments to various podcasters, and Wilson's questionable denial).
As you imply, Wilson is saying all that he can say, given the government's position and his probable NDA.
I watched a podcast last night with Jim Semivan and he was, as usual, honest and forthright about this subject.
He mentioned a paper I hadn't heard of before entitled Sovereignty and the UFO (by a prof from Ohio State and one from U. of Minnesota). The paper introduces some new concepts into the UFO mess, mostly national sovereignty and how it impedes disclosure and how it might be affected by disclosure.
I am reading it this morning. You might find it interesting. See link above.
As an aside, “That UOF Podcast” is on my subscriptions list. I watch it regularly and hold it in high esteem.
One more follow-up. If I am not mistaken, it was Jacques Vallee that told Semivan about the paper I mentioned above. And it was John Mack who inspired the paper itself.
Given that human/anthropomorphic "sovereignty" is threatened by the possible discovery of another, possibly higher, intelligence, is human sovereignty (easier to think of this as just "national bureaucracy"), collectively and without thinking or needing to think, acting in a way that would try to hide that threat?
We have all thought about how the government might be threatened by the idea of UFO's, but this article seems to take it further. Is the government (i.e., sovereignty itself as a concept) behaving irrationally because it senses its days are REALLY numbered?
