Original Title: Jeremy Corbell made great point against Edward Snowden claim. Snowden said he looked into government data and didn't find anything about UFOs. In reality there was secret UFO program AAWSAP going on. Snowden didn't have access to this information
This point is often brought up by many people during discussions about UFO secrecy. Even Snowden stated it multiple times. The argument is that Snowden worked in high government position and got access to sensitive information. Snowden said he didn't see any secret information or documents about UFOs or aliens. For him it means there is just nothing there.
In reality during Snowden case there was indeed secret UFO program called AAWSAP. This program run by James Lacatski was going on for years and didn't get expose until 2017. Snowden didn't have any information about this program. So his argument falls apart pretty quickly. It's obviously worth to mention that if there are more secret UFO programs like legacy crash retrieval program, then program can be easily hidden from official documentation.
