Well Glenn, that was plenty of fun.

Have to think though, that since there are a lot more non government people than there are government people, why are the government people people finding all the alien stuff, and we are not finding the alien stuff?

Just wondering.

The Solar System sits in a bit of a ‘backwater’ in our galaxy. It’s in the Orion spur between two major arms, the Sagittarius Arm and the Perseus Arm. If there were aliens out there traveling in the Milky Way, they’d likely stick to the main spiral arms.

And imho the real question is (as you alluded to): Why travel hundreds or thousands of light years to a planet that supports life - not just life, but life that has radio, TV, computers, rockets, etc. - and then spend your time playing hide-and-seek with airplanes or visiting only with plain folk from podunk towns? If that’s an alien’s idea of a useful activity or just having fun, it’s a lame idea, and I’d question the intelligence of these aliens.

The whole notion of extraterrestrials coming to Earth defies common sense.

Very cogent summation, Glenn. And your idea of crashes as benevolent face saving technology transfers is one of the few really original ideas on this subject I’ve heard in years.

But when all is said and done, I think it’s just government misdirection, probably to impugn the whole category of “whistleblowers”. But you’re right: keep an open mind.

My question is: why has nobody ever managed to get a clear, unambiguous photo or video of an alien craft? *Every* UFO photo/video, including the purported US Navy ones, is fuzzy, grainy, blurred, or distorted. Especially in the last twenty years of ubiquitous high-resolution cameras in everyone's pocket I just don't buy it.

It’s weird how the moment everyone started carrying a video camera in their pocket the aliens stopped getting spotted by ordinary folks.

By far the most logical explanation is cover for highly-advanced USAF / USSF ops which are occasionally detected in part.

Curios that the crash only in places where the US can recover them. In the usual circumstance, the locals notice these things and comment and publicize them.

I don't buy the story. I feel like it's the Bermuda Triangle book and legend from my youth

I don’t know. Don’t see how we can be the only sentient life in our galaxy but this just smells like a bright shiny object intended to distract. IOW, bread, circuses, and Oz - ignore the Biden handler behind the curtain.

Could we be flying alien craft as in Independence Day? Maybe, but how long could you keep that under wraps considering the number of people involved and the potential income for a leak?

Could be, IF they're actually finding crafts, that they're finding mostly scouting drones, which is not the same thing as an interstellar craft.

The agenda at work here is obvious: one world government. The thinking goes like this. Create a panic and offer what you claim to be the only plausible solution. We're under attack from outside this solar system! We're all in this together here on earth! So shut up and unite behind the one-world government dictated by the Davos elite. It's our only chance to save the planet!

We are a petrie dish observed by woke subcontractors; Reality Winners Gone Bad. The original Ford Foundation of Tau Ceti grant has gine terribly wrong as hundreds of generations of descendants diverged from original intent of the grantors, and their AI powered drones are spinning out of control, without software commands damaged by cosmic rays. The resupply ships (Borisov, Oumuamua for example) suffered same fate, unreliable after long corruption of AI core...

Gosh. It is right in our faces. They have already taken over. Does Smilin’ Joe Biden seem human to you? Or Mark Zuckerberg? Or Lindsey Graham? Not to mention Putin and Lt. Col. Vindman. And Obama and Trump.

Wake up, sheeple!

What a pleasure this is. After 20 years of reading the mighty Instapundit, Glenn writes something that I can link at the UAP News Center, a UFO news aggregation site.

To answer the question that Glenn poses: “Why is this stuff coming out now?” It’s by design. The 2023 National Defense Authorization act contained language providing whistleblower protection for people that share classified information on UFO crash retrieval programs with Congress. The bill was passed at the end of 2022 and is now beginning to yield fruit.. Here’s a link to the bill containing the UAP language at Congress.gov:

https://www.congress.gov/117/plaws/publ263/PLAW-117publ263.pdf

Search for:

“Sec. 1673” entitled: UNIDENTIFIED ANOMALOUS PHENOMENA REPORTING

PROCEDURES.

then scroll down a page or so to:

“(b) PROTECTION FOR INDIVIDUALS MAKING AUTHORIZED DISCLOSURES.”

to see the whistleblower protection language.

I don't believe in aliens. I think they are us only from the future. They are time travelers or tourists. They come to observe but can't reveal themselves. Now I know that sounds like a trope but what if there is some truth behind that trope. What if the trope was created for a reason. It makes the most sense if you think about it.

So if there are "portals" to a parallel universe, then they don't have to be light years away.
