I'm not saying anything. I'm saying there are drones there and the US Governemnt is not telling the clear and honest truth. That's I am saying,  the imagination runs wild with the unknown and that's why I'd like clarification on this point.

Why should the Gov say anything? If any of this is Top Secret then it should stay that way.  How many years was the SR-71 Blackbird a secret?

How many years was the F-117, the world's first stealth aircraft, a secret?

Just like the NGAD program is secret today, among many others.

I'm happy the US military has secret weapons. It should stay that way, many years from now those secret programs will eventually be disclosed to the public. 

20 years before it was made public and yes, I partly agree, I don't think it would be a good idea telling the public if there was clear and present danger however in this particular case it's counter productive, it has caused such a stir in the public that foreign nations have to be looking on and laughing and it makes the US look like they have no control over their house.

And for suuuure, they have to be ahead of the curve, I wouldn't be surprised if they came out and said they had achieve AGI ten years ago cause they are so ahead of the curve but that's the issue here, we know they know and they know, we know that they know and they are just letting it hang. They put out a speech saying it's basically in our imagination and then hold a classified meeting about the issue... they can't have it both ways.  

BTW, thank you for coming at this in a serious manner, even if it's mass hysteria, I respect people greatly who have the courage to talk plainly when you may be labeled a tin foul hatter.
