I
have updated this report a half dozen times in the last 24 hours because more
information keeps leaking into the public environment. I will note that we have
reached June (obviously) and that the report about what we now call UAPs rather
than UFOs is due to Congress, allegedly arriving on June 25, the anniversary of
the Custer disaster at the Little Bighorn. Or for those on the other side would
say, the Battle of the Greasy Grass.
I
say allegedly because these things have a way of slipping. There are all sorts
of tricks used to make it seem that the requirements have been met, but, of
course, the true spirit is sometimes overlooked. We have heard a lot about this
since the mandate was passed as part of one of the Covid-19 relief packages
last year. I will also note that this was supposed to be an unclassified report
about these UAPs, but there is discussion about a classified appendix to it,
which we, outside the Congress, will not see. The important note, however, is
that it was to be an unclassified report but almost immediately there was talk
of a classified section.
These
recent video recordings of UFO sightings have spurred a renewed interest in
UFOs and is the cause of the Congressional interest. While all that sounds good
on paper, I have been hearing some disturbing things about the report. There
are some rumors that the report will be delayed because the 180-day time frame
did not allow for the collection of the data from the various government
agencies. That is always a problem. Multiple government agencies have multiple
agendas, which sometimes don’t fit together. Although we have a release date,
it might not be met.
We
have heard from the former Director of National Intelligence, the DNI, John
Ratcliffe that the government has “a lot more” sightings of the UAPs.
Importantly, he said, “When we talk about sightings, we are talking about
objects that have been seen by Navy or Air Force pilots, or have been picked up
by satellite imagery that frankly engage in actions that are difficult to
explain. … traveling at speeds that exceed the sound barrier without a sonic
boom.”
Ed Ruppelt
I
need to point out that we can look at the long history of UFO sightings and see
the same observations made decades ago. Ed Ruppelt, one time chief of Project
Blue Book, tried to determine how the UFOs could exceed the sound barrier
without the sonic boom. It was something that plagued them in the 1950s. Even
artillery rounds, that move faster than sound make, well, a sound. Those
interested in ballistics will tell you that the crack associated with pistol
and rifle fire is the sound of the bullet breaking the sound barrier. Only .22
caliber short rounds do not break the sound barrier which is why some assassins
prefer to use that round. (And yes, there is a sound when the weapon is
discharged, but that is not the same as the crack.)
On
June 1, just last Tuesday, questions about the timing were directed at Pentagon
Press Secretary John Kirby who said that the report was coming from DNI and
that the release of the “Congressionally mandated study,” was up to him. He also refused respond to an inquiry that
they, in the Pentagon, have ruled out the possibility of lifeforms out there,
meaning beyond Earth. That rumor does persist. And, according to some of the
leaked information, they didn’t find aliens… I’m not surprised.
The
New York Times
reported on June 3, that “U.S. Finds No Evidence of Alien Technology in Flying
Objects, but Can’t Rule it Out, Either.” This is, of course, what I think of as
weasel wording. It tells us nothing at all.
They
go onto to say, “The report determines that the vast majority of more than 120
incidents over the past two decades did not original from any American military
or other advanced U.S. government technology, the officials said. That
determination would appear to eliminate the possibility that Navy pilots who
reported seeing unexplained aircraft might have encountered programs the government
meant to keep secret.”
This
sort of dancing around the point is, of course, exactly what I thought would
happen because we have seen this all before. In 1969, the Condon Committee, the
Dr. Edward Condon
study commissioned by the USAF at the University of Colorado, didn’t find any
evidence of alien visitation either. The conclusions at the end of that “scientific”
study was that the Air Force had done a good job of investigation, nothing
could be learned by further investigation, and there were no national security
aspects to the UFO/UAP sightings.
That
was it. Condon found what he was required to find, as outlined before the study
even began, and the Air Force used the report to close Project Blue Book, one
of the goals of the investigation. That was the end of official investigations
into UFO sightings and if you saw something strange, well, the advice was to
call local law enforcement if you felt threatened. If you think that is overstating
the case, see:
http://kevinrandle.blogspot.com/2007/03/hippler-letter.html
But
now we know all that isn’t true. Other agencies have been investigating UFOs.
One, operating under the name “Moon Dust,” operated until 1985, when that name
was compromised. The evidence suggests only the name was changed but the investigations
continued. Now we know about the AATIP program, which was another study or
investigation, or at the very least, a collecting of UFO information, that was
operating in this century. What that means is simply that the Condon Committee
wasn’t a scientific investigation, but was a public relations move. Given all
that, maybe we can retire the tired suggestion that science looked at the UFO
sightings and determined there was nothing to worry about. Seems that there is something
to worry about based on what the government has been doing for the last decade
or so.
Lue
Elizondo, who sparked some of this interest when he leaked the Tic-Tak footage,
just last week filed an Inspector General complaint against what he said was a
DoD “disinformation campaign” against him for speaking out about the UFO
situation.
Although
it seems that Elizondo is interested in clearing his name, he also said he was trying
to get the Pentagon to clear up, what he called “the ambiguity about UFOs, that
there are different groups that are responsible for responding to this
particular phenomenon. They’re not briefing each other on this.”
Which does play into the trouble with the required report, gathering the information from the various organizations that control it, and writing the report for Congress that is unclassified. None of this bodes well for disclosure of UFO information, but that has been the problem for decades. Those in charge simply don’t want the information disseminated to the general public and the reason for that is laid out in UFOS and The Deep State.

If the current investigation only goes back two decades, what of the previous five? The government was able to dodge that bullet, it seems.
But what if we're dealing with two separate stories here? The current (2004-on) sightings, which to some degree indicate Earth-based technology (drones), and then the classic "flying discs" of the Golden Age? And where does the Tic Tac fit in, since it's of current day while exhibiting characteristics of days gone by? This looks to have been all wrapped up into one package, but with a big chunk missing.
The water couldn't get much muddier. The failure to release all the data and everyone going off on their own tangents without much guidance, is a road leading off a cliff.
