I don't know why you're getting so upset, Peter, just because I don't agree with your theory. I happened to have studied both UFOs and Nazi Germany for about 35 years now. The UFO phenomenon cannot be explained so easily. I refer you to the books of Jacques Vallee, French astrophysicist and computer scientist, as an example. These craft perform maneuvers, fly at speeds, instantly reverse direction, even change shape and disappear in ways that our science can't explain. They have appeared over our nuclear missile sites and shut their power down.
Again, if we've had access to such technology for the last 70 years - if they are just military aircraft - why haven't they made them public? Why are they still fighting wars with conventional aircraft? Mostly what the US was desperate to capture (and keep out of the Soviets' hands) was the rocket technology (the V program) and the turbojet technology, which created the ME262, the world's first operational jet fighter. Of course, it didn't work and the Soviets soon had those weapons. The Horten Brothers Flying Wing was simply a jet plane with a different shape. The Stealth Bomber is the same, but with radar-absorbing materials to create a smaller return signal.
I worked in the aerospace/defense industry for 10 years and I can tell you that they are still spending billions on the same basic crap. Are they experimenting with unusual stuff? Sure? Is it actually in production? Not that anyone can see. The Germans were/are brilliant engineers and had all kinds of ideas on the drawing board, including flying discs. The US Air Force attempted the same thing in the 50s and it failed. If they've had UFO-type technology for 70 years, why build the U-2, the SR-71, the Stealth Bomber, the Osprey? The Predator Drone is about as conventional as you get.
No, the CIA did not create the "flying saucers" story. That's absurd. UFOs have been seen throughout human history, and flying saucers were depicted on the covers of science fiction magazines in the 1920s and 1930s. Foreign governments have admitted to studying the subject honestly (unlike the US government).
