NSA's Declassified UFO File - 'Official' Hypothesis of NSA and evidence towards US Cover-up?

It seems that by and large the government really doesn't know in the most mainstream sense. I really still find it hard to imagine, as many claims have said, that there's only a handful of people who know the whole story in the world and they have the intelligence to handle these colossal projects without getting noticed.

One way is that they might compartmentalize the work on the recovered technology, so that they can hire contractors who build or research these things but have no idea where they came from based on the small part they are working on.

In my opinion, this pretty much says it all... The best assumption for UFO's seems to be the extraterrestrial one in all of my research, and this document provides blatant proof. Also, great arguments as to why our government would go to such extents to hide such technology...

Actually, all this document says is that the NSA is interested in UFOs. If you look at the pdf title, you will find that this does not prove anything. Its a hypothesis. Someone in the NSA most likely wanted to access the threat, which 'could possibly' come about from an unknown source.

The title of this pdf is: "UFO Hypothesis and Survival Questions"

Hahaha... Our government thinks the UFO community is a psychological threat to itself. They are correct.

This document is interesting, but I find the writing style very odd. The headings are a list of possible explanations of what UFOs could be. So one might think that UFO sightings could be a mix of the heading categories. But instead of acknowledging this possibility, each heading starts with
"All UFOs are..."

I also find the writing style strange, but I am not really an authority in writing style in Portuguese, much less in English.

And not all heading starts with "All UFO's are..." (and I included the apostrophe that the author used), the last two hypothesis, "Secret Projects" and "Aliens" are presented as "Some UFO's are ...", and I also find that interesting.

But they do make the same point as Stephen Hawking about what happens when a more advanced race meets a less advanced race, the less advanced people tend to be assimilated. Since the aliens must be more advanced:

You will be assimilated! Resistance is futile LOL! (-Borg, from Star Trek

The report did seem to contain some anachronistic thinking, at least we can only hope. Several light years round trip is a long way to go for a look around, a long way to go just to wreck ships and a long way to go to conquer and control.

Just merely stating as to possibly 'why' the government might have had intentions towards a cover-up...

Obviously these files were classified for a reason infernos... Again not saying this is substancial proof, but there is evidence out there supporting a cover-up... and this is just a small piece to the pie my friend....

On topic, if anybody wants further information on why a 'cover-up' may exist look up operation blue fly and moondust through the FOIA. You might find some startling information. If you look into past projects grudge, bluebook, etc... you will start to see why I and others feel there MAY be a current cover-up.

Provides blatent truth as to why the ET hypothesis may be the most acceptable hypothesis, not that it is right. Sorry my wording confused you

Ya, I could see our government reacting in such a manner too... Especially with the NSA's reasoning being, treat them as hostile first, then prove they are not... I could completely understand then IF the cover-up theory is true what the intentions behind the government would be.

If you ask me, it gives credence to the possibility that there is a cover-up about the fact that they are as clueless as anyone! Maybe the governments are not sure if these phenomena could pose a defence threat, and because of that, keep public exposure to minimum (which is not very easy considering the position of UFOs in modern culture).

Some people think it was a UFO we were firing at in the Battle of LA in 1942, we shot about 1500 3" shells at that thing. If that really was an alien craft, they probably think WE are the hostile ones!

I think anyone who would argue that something is not being covered up hasn't looked closely at Roswell, they covered up what happened there. Even if you believe their current story, they admit they covered up the truth for 50 years. Some people think they still haven't told us the truth. But whichever side you take on the Roswell issue, even the government doesn't deny they gave out false information for 50 years as part of a coverup! How much more proof could anyone want?

But like the Roswell case, the only question is, WHAT are they covering up? Is it just more boring stuff like project Mogul? (adjusted of course for the leap forward in time I mean. Even back in 1947 Mogul was not that exciting a technology). It could be fantastic stuff, or it could be less fantastic than you might imagine, most of us don't really know and will continue to be 50 years behind the truth.

certainly agree....
