I do. When you say this is an "unidentified aerial phenomena" or an "unidentified flying objects," that means it's unidentified. As in: we do not know what we are looking at. You don't get to say, "well, we don't know what this is; therefore, it must be aliens." You say, "We don't know what this is. Until we have more information, there is no conclusion to make." Nothing more. Full stop. The end. And, certainly not technobabble.

It's hard for many to acept not knowing something. Or to make a joke from it: It uses propulsion we know to be impossible.

Yeah sure, but the fact remains that the government does know, has known, and continues to keep secret that these really are alien craft according to dozens of respected military whistleblowers who courageously came forward to break their NDA's and tell the truth on the subject.

If the government tried to keep this secret, they did a really piss poor job of it. Anyone spending any reasonable amount of time researching on the UFO phenomenon - admittedly a painful task as it tends to attract the worse kooks, I'm talking about somewhat legitimate authors and reports here - knows that there is something real happening there.

I doubt any explanation is as simple as "aliens from somewhere else" though, and I definitely don't think the "government" knows any more about what exactly it is that we do, but I also doubt it tries to keep it a secret deliberately.

Have any of them been prosecuted for breaking NDA? Is it possible that they were told to "break NDA" and "come clean" to obfuscate the truth?

Consider seeking mental health care, think about your life and if there are other signs that you need help.
