This is probably completely the wrong thread to ask this but what’s the general opinion on the Disclosure Project. They seem frightening organised and convinced for a set of kookbags. Are they just generally regarded as a set of nuts that got organised ?

It does make a refreshing change to have a well-laid out UFO website, instead of the usual UFO garishness.
However let us look at the evidence they present to support their claims:
‘Without a grant of immunity releasing them from their security oaths, many such unimpeachable witnesses fear to speak out.’
I’m not a lawyer, but I don’t know which law would be used to prosecute people talking about UFO’s.
Here is a former US President’s view:
“Whatever statement you saw concerning President Carter’s view on UFOs was not exactly what he said. He had seen something that he thought was unexplainable that possibly might have been a UFO and he will certainly disclose and describe any unusual phenomena he might see. He is committed to the fullest possible openness in government and would support full disclosure of material that was not defense sensitive that might relate to UFOs. He did not, however, pledge to “make every piece of information concerning the UFOs available to the public.” There might be some aspects of some sightings that would have defense implications that possibly should be safe-guarded against immediate and full disclosure.” Walter Wurfel, Carter Deputy Press Secretary February 28, 1977
Given that technology has inproved since 1977, what is going on?
Has the US been holding on to free energy or anti-gravity all that time?
Again from the Disclosure Project:
'The recorded testimony of scores of military, government and other witnesses to Unidentified Flying Objects and Extraterrestrial events and projects from around the world establishes the existence of a UFO/Extraterrestrial presence on and around Earth. ’
No.
It doesn’t.
Eye-witnesses can be mistaken. The vast majority of UFO sightings have been refuted. There is not one piece of physical evidence, even after decades of claims.
No-one has come forward with anything.
This fooled people:
A Very British UFO Hoax
Tale of a UFO hoax which fooled ITV and Sky News bosses in August when a “flying saucer” was seen over the village of Avebury, Wilts. The truth is that it was an elaborate prank which made this programme possible. The 25 foot UFO which circled the area for 10 minutes was really the work of modelmakers whose credits include James Bond movies. People who were fooled and those not tricked take part.
