Reply to comment by GraniteStayte in As Mystery Objects Get Shot Down, U.S. Sets Up New Task Force on UFOs by Nicolas-matteo

Let's hope Mulder and Scully of this reality are on the case!

Edit: Kidding aside, it’s interesting that high ranking military officers, like NORAD Commander Gen. Glen VanHerck, are not discounting the possibility of aliens.

"On Sunday, the head of U.S. Northern Command and the North American Aerospace Defense Command wouldn’t rule out that the airborne objects the Pentagon has been shooting down are connected to aliens or extraterrestrials.

“I’ll let the intel community and the counterintelligence community figure that out, I haven’t ruled out anything,” said Gen. Glen VanHerck in a briefing late Sunday. “At this point, we continue to assess every threat or potential threats unknown that approaches North America with an attempt to identify it.”

Regarding the last 3 objects, the general was very specific that those are not balloons.

Reuters:

> VanHerck said the military was unable to immediately determine the means by which any of the three latest objects were kept aloft or where they were coming from.

> "We're calling them objects, not balloons, for a reason, said VanHerck.

If you're not allowed to comment any new information ruling out aliens would be adding new information. Maybe we know who they belong to but they're a close ally and we're trying to figure out how to respond.
