They’re desperate:

1. MLK = rapist..!
2. UFO’s..!

Hey, both right be true, but WHY are they pushing this NOW..?

I think we all know.

People are misusing the term UFO.

UFO means “unidentified.” Yes, unidentifiable things and phenomena happen all the time.

But is this guy willing to say: “non-human, extra-terrestrial life forms exist and they and their technology are verifiably seen on Earth?”

Mellon, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, is involved with a new History Channel series, 'Unidentified,'

No hidden agenda there...

They need to be clear that they are talking about naked eye observation or electronic imagines.

Stopped reading right there! Let me ask you something - Most of the General public watches TV. How else would the government disseminate information? By Morse code? Junk mail? Western Union?

A lot of this (not necessarily all of it) is just Word Games.

If you are a beginner bird watcher, you are likely to see a bird you can’t name. Congratulations — you have seen an unidentified flying object.

Navy pilots see stuff that they can’t identify, perhaps visually, perhaps in readouts on instruments. Yes, UFOs have been spotted.

On the one hand, these Navy Pilots may be seeing alien spacecraft from advanced civilizations.
On the other hand, these pilots may have just seen stuff they didn’t recognize.

Either way it’s interesting. But a lot of these stories seem to be worded in a way that says “We now know aliens exist”. And, in fact, that’s not true.

Saw him on FOX last night. Ok, so what exactly should the US do to stop them? The people of Earth are nothing but ants against a can of Raid.

Since at least the 1950s, the government lies to us constantly. They lie for fun, for profit, to cover their crimes. They removed the prohibition on aiming propaganda against the US people.
They lie when the truth would fit better. They lie more than a woman of reproductive age. They lie with a smirk, knowing that we realize it’s a lie.

If you think back on any government announcement from the last 70 years, it’s actually pretty hard to find any that are NOT lies.

And now... F-18s are up against some superweapon that they cannot stop or understand. And their first thought was “wow... we better let the American people know about this right away”.

Laughable. They wouldn’t tell us if a 50 mile wide asteroid that would end all life was headed to earth in 3 months.
