Maybe yes, maybe no.

Keep an open mind.

And so I don't have any illusions.

It's just because I should have known everything that I did.

I know for a fact.

that people hide things, you know?

And so the fact that I didn't know it doesn't mean it wasn't there.

You see, this is a fascinating thing.

Your average lay person, when they look at the government saying, we're not going to release this UFO thing, thinks, ah, because they don't want us to know about aliens.

But they don't think about other motivations.

I'll give you one.

Let's say we have sensors of a certain kind that are way better than we want anyone to know they are.

Right, because we don't want the adversary to know, oh, we can see X, Y, or Z. That's called sources and methods.

And in the intelligence world, that's what we protect more than anything.

We can't let the adversary know what we know we can know.

And so I have no doubt that some of the reluctance to release some of this stuff, it was captured by a collection system that we don't want people to know we have.

They can see farther, longer into wavelengths that they didn't know that we could and so forth.

And I think some of the data captures have been through those kinds of systems.

And that just to reveal that can reveal the capability that we have.

And so I feel quite certain that there's some of that going on.
