There is no oxygen in space (any area reasonably far from a planet). My lack of citation does not make it any less true. And if I were to try to convince you of that fact it would be simply for your benefit.
Think of any comment by anyone here as someone graciously providing you with free counsel out of the time of their day, with the big disclaimer that they are not your client, and that the information is under no warranty. This disclaimer is implicit on all internet comments. It is up to you to consider their claims, and verify them. If you’re not willing to research their claims yourself then it’s pretty clear that
1) you’re just here to argue for one side to the public (aka propaganda)
2) pursuit of the truth is not actually your goal
Given that your profile states that you are both part of the military and also a government lawyer may indicate that both 1) and 2) are true.
I think you’ll be hard pressed to convince people they are wrong simply by accusing them that they are wrong due to lack of evidence. There is no court here, no jury to decide you win or lose. You can contribute more to this discussion by offering your unique perspective given your background.
