The fact that the government seems to be all over the place on this actually makes me think its 4th D/ Quorum/ Aliens (perhaps working with the highest echelons of the control system). Lower level politicians seem to be frantic about it and are receiving no intel from other low level politicians, they have claimed it was Iran, China, that they knew nothing about it, that there were none, mass hysteria, etc etc.
Generally whats been happening is the program changes seem to ripple through all levels of government/media and are downloaded in sync by portals/slaves and new norms are established and this pushes further polarization on both sides (which really seems to be the point of it all). It usually seems as though the system is working as a unified organization.. This really seems to be something that does not fall in to that category.. but I would not be surprised either way.
I think part of the issue that 4th D(STS) is faced with right now is that on one hand they want to explicitly remain in control of us, and to continue this illusion.. but with the approach of the wave and the awakening process happening, the reality of hyperdimensional reality and just space stuff in general is pretty much something that cannot be censored.. The effects of the wave seem to be overwhelming them in a way.
The C's have mentioned that things in the sky would "excite" the populace, which to me is a carefully selected word to use, it does not necessarily mean something negative. If the Quorum is both STS and STO, and this harvest that is happening is a means of pulling more souls in to either direction, I think inevitable disclosure might be something both sides are anticipating and moving towards, and perhaps this soft disclosure of otherworldy phenomenon is something that represents a balanced approach to both sides.
I take in to account what was said in the Ra transcripts, about their being a quarantine lain over the planet that prevents certain actions being taken by STS, 6D earthly guardians, and essentially random windows that pop up that the STS forces are forced to work around in order to do any direct manifestation in to our reality, which would mean that cant just simply appear here, put us all in chains, and feed off us in perpetuity(which is exactly what would happen if they could it seems). Perhaps this sort of event represents a balance between what they are allowed to do and is also a way for the STO side to effect us without having to abridge free will, perhaps an example of how the Quorum works together while being so juxtaposed.
Something I have to remind myself is that stagnation is never the point, both sides are trying to usher us forward. For example, if the STO side just came in and removed all taxes, gave us all raises, de poisoned all the food and removed all the tyrants, while seemingly a good thing from this level of perception, that would have a net negative on the actual development of our spirit and I think "escalation" is moreso the motive here.
I can also just as easily see it as just being the government trying to do something tyrannical
Tons of different theories that make sense, some not so much.. I do not think searching for nuclear components is something that would cause this type of behavior. The C's have mentioned how many thousands of years ahead of us they are technologically, if they wanted to do something like this without being seen I think that is well within their means.
Exciting experience. I am sure there is more to come.
