Kirkpatrick, who spoke with the Journal, says he’s found evidence that the government “fabricated evidence of alien technology” in an effort to distract from real weapons programs being carried out by the government in secret.
Is that supposed to be some kind of surprising revelation?
You’re not the only person who does this, but this sort of comment adds nothing to the conversation.
Just because you already believe something or have heard of something before doesn’t mean that’s true for other people. Spreading knowledge inherently involves repetition.
And even if it were true that something is common knowledge, what good is it to say “I know that?” If the first comment was a waste of characters, then so is the follow up.
It’s not a matter of hearing of it before; it’s a matter of applying Occam’s Razor. How gullible does a person have to be to look at a super-secretive Air Force base that’s nevertheless known to be a testing ground for experimental aircraft, and then think the weird lights flying around above it must be aliens instead of just weird, fancy jets?

the Air Force developed an exotic electromagnetic generator that simulated this pulse of disruptive energy without the need to detonate a nuclear weapon. When activated, this device, placed on a portable platform 60 feet above the facility, would gather power until it glowed, sometimes with a blinding orange light. It would then fire a burst of energy that could resemble lightning.

is that technically possible?

what would it take to build one?

When you lie about everything truth ceases to exist.
Distracts from the really dirty laundry
Ever since the Pentagon released video clips of “UFOs”, it should have been common knowledge that they were doing this. Since they would not have released clips of unknown potential threats or enemy weapons.
