Well, how do we interpret this

?ve=1&tl=1


Top-secret UFO files could damage U.S. national security, the Navy says.

Responding to Vice's Freedom of Information Act request, the Navy said it had "discovered certain briefing slides that are classified TOP SECRET. A review of these materials indicates that are currently and appropriate Marked and Classified TOP SECRET under Executive Order 13526 and the Originial Classification Authority has determined that release of these materials would cause exceptionally grave damage to the National Security of the United States."


One way - There are little green men (Gawd, I hope they don't land and ask for our leader)
Another way - Top secret military aircraft that they don't want to let anyone see

All of that UFO stuff was recently declassified and made public.

If they ask for our leader, give them directions to the Kremlin.

means. It has nothing to do with the information that is classified being dangerous. It's more about sources and methods.

Everything that is classified TOP SECRET has the same description.

I do have to question the credibility of a site with "extragoodshit" as part of the URL, though, I must say...

Site has outstanding context, articles, articles, and links. However it is considered the Playboy of the internet. In other words, if nudity offends,do not view site. Of course, I just read the articles.

In case you didn't notice, the original source used by that site was foxnews.com. Further, the material being described has been declassified and released to the public.

You're welcome to use such sites and even to post from them, but if you expect us to take such sites seriously, you're not likely to get that from most people.

In any case, if you click on the link to a story, then copy the URL from that link to post here, you'll get better results. See my post below, which has a working link in it.
