So you don’t want a discussion just a “We’re right everyone else is wrong!” cheerleading session!

Sounds good have fun!

I’m a skeptic too, but right now we can do so much with drones that if we had supersecret technologies, we could still keep them under wraps.

So we have drones that, as some pilots have witnessed, that can travel Mach 15 in the atmosphere, make right-angle turns, and dive into the ocean?

And again, why, after 50 years, don't we have an entire Air Force of these planes, so that everybody knows not to mess with us?

All you have to do is bring credible information into the thread, or discuss the material without derision. The base thrust of your comment to me was that I am a gullible fool. So, in actual fact, you opened conversation to me with a veiled insult.

Predictable... Right to being derogatory.

Of course not. Open civil debate is always productive. But is that why you came when you saw the title? You obviously cannot stand the concept so why even pay any attention to it at all? I suspect you came to make sure no one else could even have productive open debate.

UFOs were the go to excuse as a 1950s cover story

All you had to do to de-bunk those was to smile knowingly, shake your head, and twirl your finger around one ear. It was easy to cover up because it matched what people wanted to believe.

Kirby was a career mouthpiece, Ie “public affairs officer.” His entire career was spreading PR to the press. No command experience of any kind. Last military assignment was PR guy at the Pentagon. How that non-career qualified him for admiral’s rank will be an enduring mystery. Must have known somebody.

Get back to me when legitimate issues like cocaine in the White House can be traced to who owns it.

That ain't gonna happen, the story is done.

Maybe you better start looking at the "SQUIRREL"..

If UFOs are real, there’s nothing we can do about a culture with the ability to navigate between stars.

If UFOs are Chinese or Russian, that’s a big honkin’ deal.

If UFO’s are just a squirrel, . . .

I’m betting on number 3. But only number 2 requires us to turn on the news 24/7. But if it were number 2 (Russia), the military-industrial folks would already be jumping up and down to get more funding. So it isn’t that. If it were number 2 (China), our ruling class would be utterly befuddled about what to do or not do. So it could be that.

“physics existing!”

This is the problem... In our egotistical arrogance we think we know and understand every thing. When in reality we know and understand very little.

We are still very primitive with understanding physics and get reminded all the time as new discoveries are made. We don’t know even half of what we think we do. It is pure arrogance to even think we do.

... explosive UFO claims have sparked open congressional oversight hearings set for July 26 next week.

Interesting. I searched on the news for when this date was announced and the earliest I found was 22 hours ago.

Around 26 hours ago on the Vega thread, I had posted and linked the same date for another reason entirely. It (8 Av) was the date of the first star photograph.

VEGA, THE STAR AT THE CENTER OF EVERYTHING

Wed, 17 July 1850 = 8th of Av, 5610

The traditional date for the Sin of the Spies:

Spies Return (1312 BCE)
The Spies dispatched 40 days earlier by Moses to tour the Promised Land return to Israel's encampment in the desert, bearing a huge cluster of grapes and other lush fruits. But even as they praise the land's fertility, they terrify the people with tales of mighty giant warriors dwelling there and assert that the land is unconquerable.

My FR anniversary too.

Rear Admiral Kirby, speaking as the White House National Security Council's coordinator for strategic communications, told reporters Monday the Pentagon wants 'to get to the bottom' of the UFO mystery

Funny, I have the song in that same post. It looks like the dumbest stuff, I know. It'll all be worth the shame. 🫡

Humor me... This explains a whole lot for those who have put up a firewall of ignorance and arrogance.

I appreciate you taking the time to check it out. It explains a lot and will bring you up to speed on the situation. Concerning this topic it is well worth the time to at least see where the weirdos like me stand. :)

China doesn’t even need a disguised UFO, they just send any old giant white balloon full o cameras and let that Baby float from coast to coast.

I guess the idea to paint a tribute poster of Chairman Mao on the balloons was shelved for now. Other than that, they don’t really sweat about spying as they used to. China is already buying up acres of land surrounding many of our military bases. Both parties too dense or complicit to stop that from happening.

No you didn’t, it is three hours long. So you mental blocked and put up a firewall just as soon as they mentioned the letters UFO and/or Aliens.

See... You don’t want to educate yourself, you just want to disrupt any and all discussion about the topic.
