Given that both sides in the Cold War were trying out new and secret aircraft, it’s no surprise the military on each side would be running into “unidentified flying objects.” That’s not evidence for mysterious space aliens. It’s an expected result of Cold War efforts and technological advances. Throw in some confusion, weather phenomena, over-excited or otherwise exaggerated eyewitness reports and so on, and you get a great body of nonsense about UFOs.

The Air Force said it was “temperature inversion”.

Lol.

If the memo is real, it sounds like a very wise move by Kennedy as you’ve outlined. Another odd coincidence for sure. Responding to an attack from outer space was about the only thing we could agree on ‘63.

By definition, no UFO can be explained, because if they could explain it, it wouldn’t be ‘unidentified’, therefore not a UFO.

You say that because you obviously have never seen one unlike me. Easy to call it all nonsense if you've never been an eye witness.

Kennedy’s plan to force the US military/CIA to share the data on “Fastwalkers” with the Soviets was the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back, as far as Alan Dulles was concerned (see National Security Action Memorandum #271, dated November 12, 1963). Dulles represented the interests of the wealthy psychopaths we now know as “globalists”, and those folks didn’t want any of that information getting out.

Knowledge is power, and Dulles and his ilk didn’t want anyone else to have any of either. They liked their monopoly on potentially world-conquering technological advances. Slaves musn’t be allowed to discover the secrets....Dulles had been replaced as CIA director by William Colby at this time, but Dulles still wielded a lot of power. Dulles, Colby, and James Jesus Angleton put the assassination plot together.
