Would be hilarious if it turns out that Russia or China stumbled upon some new physics principle and started developing experimental aircraft based on it (www.theguardian.com)

Isn't this just news to distract the public? Aliens usually work well to distract the American masses.

I think that's the most likely answer. This gets trotted out on regular basis whenever the US is about to do something really shitty.

Yeah, when there's aliens news I always ask myself "okay, where they don't want us to be discussing, now?"

I don't know what that is, this time. Anything Ukraine or Israel?
