Getting back to this for a second. I don't think we as citizens have a right to know everything our government does but if WH officials are having to say in private these things are not of ET origin then the President or whoever needs to speak to the country and lay out the facts right now. The more they try and keep this in the dark the more speculation grows.

Actually, the Brits got their asses handed to them at Isandlwana and I think the northern invasion column barely escaped a disaster as well. However, after Isandlwana, the Empire sent reinforcements including Gatling guns and, well, it went down hill from there...fast. Other than the loss of the crown Prince of France, the rest of the campaign was pretty one-sided. Gatlings vs assegai spears.

Oh I’m not claiming the Zulu rolled in and kicked ass and took names. It was a Pyrrhic victory at best. Perhaps for both sides. The human cost on the Zulu was huge but I thought in the end the Europeans withdraw? But in the end we all know how it wound up with European colonialism in Africa.

We don’t. I worked in defense for 35+ years. Just paying your taxes doesn’t entitle you to know what the hell i worked on. And you’d be shocked how many times that came up in 35+ years.

Ended up with the capture of Cetshwayo, the Zulu King and they shipped him off to London to meet the Queen.

This period, for some reason, is one I have read a lot about.

You can't count out, in this day and age, especially with all the social "experts", and their click channels, there can be copy cats, and just plain crazy people who want the attention. This one is supposed to be at 20,000 ft. Much lower. We'll know more soon. They have to investigate it first.

Anecdotal story here. I’ve never gone and looked at Wikileaks’s. Why? Because I still fill out SF-86’s (IFYKYK). And I need to be able to fill that form out honestly. The day I finally retire from even part time work I’ll fly to Colorado, buy a dime bag (is that still a phrase), and sit on a patio drinking craft beer reading Wikileaks.

No I won’t but at that time at least I could if I wanted to

This is the circus part of 'bread and circuses'. The high-wire guy always builds some suspense before the end of the show. Are we not entertained wondering about ET instead of other things?

Not sure we want Joe Biden leading us in an intergalactic war with extraterrestrials, haha.

Which president would have been our best option to fight the aliens?

It would be cool if these were of ET origin just for the ramifications of such a thing. However, I give it a 99.9% probability that these objects are human-built.
