Lots of people, including myself are worried about UAPDA passing and disclosure getting dragged out like JFKs into a black hole. I have not seen many people touch on the vast differences in the case…
I’m commuting to work so I cheated a bit and had chatgpt help highlight some of the differences in the cases. Shouldn’t this matter? For those that want it to pass(for good or sinister reasons) highlight the extraordinary differences in the amount of evidence the two cases have? Below are some of the highlights.
You’re correct in noting the significant differences between the UAP Disclosure Act of 2023 and the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992. While the UAP Disclosure Act is modeled after the JFK Act, the nature and scope of the two subjects are vastly different, which influences how the legislation and disclosure process might unfold. Here are some key differences:
Nature of the Event:
JFK Assassination: This was a singular, historical event with a specific date, location, and individuals involved. The focus was on uncovering potential conspiracies or hidden details related to the assassination of President Kennedy. UAPs: Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena encompass a broad range of incidents and observations over approximately 80 years. These are not confined to a single event but include numerous sightings and encounters reported by various sources, including military personnel, civilians, and other countries.
Scope and Complexity:
JFK Assassination: The investigation focused on unraveling the complexities of one major event, albeit with many conspiracy theories and a considerable amount of evidence and testimonies to sift through. UAPs: The scope is much wider, involving multiple incidents across different time periods, geographical locations, and involving various branches of the government, military, and civilian witnesses. This complexity suggests a more extensive and potentially more prolonged disclosure and investigation process.
Agencies Involved:
JFK Assassination: The investigation mainly involved analyzing existing government and law enforcement records, primarily from agencies like the FBI and CIA, related to the assassination. UAPs: The phenomenon spans various government agencies, including the Department of Defense, NASA, FAA, and other international bodies. It also involves non-governmental eyewitness accounts, making the range of records and data more diverse and complex.
International Involvement:
JFK Assassination: This was largely a U.S.-centric investigation, with primary interest and implications within the United States. UAPs: UAP sightings and incidents have global relevance, with reports and data coming from multiple countries and international bodies, adding layers of complexity in terms of jurisdiction and international cooperation.
Public Interest and Speculation:
JFK Assassination: Public interest was intensely focused on whether there was a conspiracy behind the assassination, but the speculation was relatively narrow in scope – centered around who might have been involved in the assassination and why. UAPs: The speculation and theories are much broader, ranging from scientific explanations to extraterrestrial life. The diversity in theories and beliefs about UAPs is much wider than the JFK case.
Ongoing vs. Historical Investigation:
JFK Assassination: This was a historical investigation into an event that had already occurred, with a closed set of evidence and witness accounts. UAPs: This is both historical and ongoing. New UAP sightings and encounters can occur, adding to the existing body of evidence and requiring continuous updating of the investigation.
In summary, while the UAP Disclosure Act of 2023 is inspired by the JFK Assassination Records Collection Act, the breadth, complexity, and nature of the UAP phenomenon make it a fundamentally different case. The ongoing, diverse, and international aspects of UAP incidents suggest a more complex process of disclosure and analysis compared to the JFK assassination investigation.
