    As Kirkpatrick described in his own words, the extent of his investigation of whistleblower claims amounted to asking the government’s secret-keepers if a certain illegal program existed. Kirkpatrick’s approach, as astute observers have noted, is roughly akin to asking a mob boss if he is engaging in illegal activity, and subsequently being satisfied with a “no.”

        If such programs exist, other countries may not want to show their hand if they know they trail behind the US. Sightings themselves could always be concealed due to national security concerns. Then there’s just the possibility of lack of interest or negligence in documenting UAP.
