> Are you certain I’m the one with the “bias” here? yes > Let me quote ODNI from a couple of year ago: Keywords 'couple of years ago'. Maybe it sounds shocking to some, but things can change over a couple of years, stuff can be researched, new data points can appear or dissapear, presidents get voted out, empires rise and fall within a couple of years.

  Is that the ODNI?

    Even better: that’s JAMA. Far less likely to just make things up to fit a narrative

      Ok but what does the ODNI say in 2024? A couple of years ago they said 'There is no one explanation for these incidents', so basically 'we don't know'. Has there been an update? JAMA does not seem to rule out foul play, they're just saying they haven't found significant differences between control and treatment groups with regards to bio markers "except for self-reported and objective measures of imbalance; symptoms of fatigue, posttraumatic stress, and depression; and the development of functional neurological disorders in some", which is something that can be said for a lot of 'syndromes' in medical literature, syndromes that are very much real ("A syndrome is a recognizable complex of symptoms and physical findings which indicate a specific condition for which a direct cause is not necessarily understood."). Not sure if you're old enough to remember, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_War_syndrome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_War_syndrome suffered from similar information battles. So, I'm not sure I follow your arguments here, none of your quotes actually sustain your assertions. And why is JAMA 'far less likely' to make things up vs the ODNI? What are your arguments about that statement?
