The team that did blue book - a much more credible program than sign and grudge before it, left about 700 ufo reports unresolved - buuuuut...they deliberately misled in their reports of some of those resolved and unresolved, particularly ones pertaining to u2's and sr71 predecessors. At one point, nearly half of the ufo reports making it to their desks were of objects known to them..... which they were not authorized to disclose - and didn't.
This lead to a situation where they basically replicated the failures of the previous programs - insisting on strained and downright illogical explanations for this or that - whatever it took to say, officially, that there was no there there. The fun takeaway being that the program that most people think of as a bellweather investigation and later disclosure by the us government was, in reality, an active disinformation campaign. Hiding real things in a pile of fantasies, right out in the open.
Turns out that pilots and passengers on commercial flights at 10k or so routinely spotted our aircraft up at 80 - which was believed by the public at the time, including pilots and military personnel, to be impossible. It was a real pain in the ass to keep that quiet...until people started talking aliens at fever pitch, at which point we pretty much leaned back and let the loons do the work. Discrediting themselves and discrediting what were, in all likelihood, legitimate sightings. As time goes forward, it was less high altitude craft and more experimental vtols..and wouldn't you know it, ufo behavior and sightings change to suit.
So, the the spirit of the thread, and of government officials up to and including presidents lying about the ufo issue - I wouldn't rule out obama telling a half truth about some of those unresolved incidents. Might be a bit naive of us to think that the president would personally know any of this stuff - but there's probably at least one or two things he knows that we don't, and that he knows they know about..but that's not going to stop him from going on camera and saying "yeah, nobody knows". Basically SOP for ufos at this point.
I agree with most of this. They did cover up secret US aircraft in the past with lies, of course, and they didn't mind when people thought it was aliens. Are they doing that now though? Objects or phenomena that goes from miles up above the ocean, and zips down to sea level in seconds to hover over the water? Things going over 10,000 miles per hour? Is this all bullshit being fed to us, or are these secret US drones, and if so, why would Obama and the rest of the establishment be talking about this stuff rather than trying to keep it a complete secret? Why the ramp up of these UFO stories times 1000 over the past few years? Is this all just about getting more funding for the military/ Space Force/ whatever else? Is Obama bringing this up to help other politicians by distracting from their shit to try to get the people to waste their time thinking about little green men? Why is the establishment/ media/ senators pushing this so hard right now, when they didn't really do that before the past few years? Why now? Why at this moment in time?
