Your first post is from 2007, which is quite a while ago in the grand scheme of things.
I've learned to apply caution when reading a paper from a single author, especially when that single author has numerous critics questioning his interpretations.
I found this 2013 paper from Nimtz, which appears to address the critics, but still seems to lack any recorded experimental results.
So, is it me, or did the authors conveniently omitted to show any data of the results? All they did was mentioned the results, but what about the signal of both the transmitted and reflected, especially done at various angles? I'd like to see the signal. This "paper" has in fact very little of the actual results that we can actually look at.
If I were the referee, I'd send it back.
Maybe he makes some money from that book, but the publication of such books has very little to do with science, especially since the synopsis of the book says it avoids getting into the math, which is at the heart of physics.
He also has a book that is selling for $49.95:
Zero Time Space: How Quantum Tunneling Broke the Light Speed Barrier
Yes, it might be possible to suppress experiments you can't do in small labs, like giant particle accelerator experiments, but these quantum experiments with entanglement and tunneling can be performed in relatively small labs, and wouldn't be that difficult to replicate so you could hardly suppress it. Kind of like how many labs were trying to replicate cold fusion after that was announced by Fleischmann and Pons back in the day, yet some were still claiming that technology was suppressed, despite all the labs working on it, which is a nonsensical claim.

This is where these fantastical claims usually shoot themselves in the foot. They claim some fancy new tech unknown to the public is being used, and then they just have to throw in that it's not all that complicated but the Powers That Be suppress knowledge of it.
The book even touches on space exploration through a forward by astronaut Ulrich Walter, science team member of the D-2 Space Shuttle Mission, and by revisiting a 1992 experiment in which Günter Nimtz and colleagues transmitted Mozart's Symphony No.40 at 4.7 times the speed of light through a tunneling barrier.
This is why other scientists didnt find Nimtz' claim about a 1 meter barrier credible, and he didn't provide any data or experimental details to support that claim.
The Hartman effect thus leads to predictions of anomalously large, and even superluminal tunneling velocities in the limit of thick barriers. However, the probability of transmission through such a barrier becomes vanishingly small, since the probability density inside the barrier is an exponentially decreasing function of barrier length.
What UFO videos? The UFO videos released by the pentagon actually prove the opposite of what is claimed about them. For example:

They can’t hide it anymore with millions of stories and ufo videos
If the internet is so great for information, how come you haven't been able to find the documentation on the internet that the dogon stories circulating in the UFO circles are full of misrepresentations?
The Dogon have been here on Earth from Sirius ...
What exactly are they trying to hide making us wait? They assume we are living in the 50s again where everyone has no smart phone to search the internet for millions of stories and videos on UFOs on earth
Because "climate change" is a scam? A scam designed to control the people using fear/guilting etc. Oh and more excuses to tax (carbon tax in Canada etc)

Our quantum classrooms tell us that communication using entangled electrons is not possible. As soon as one side observes the state, the other side is instantly opposite. There would have to be a way to force the spin of the other half of the entangled pair to match a pre-determined data bit. on or off, which , according to what we know about quantum physics, is not possible.
So, if indeed there is a way to do instantaneous communication, that alone revolutionizes communications on our entire planet and all of our spacecraft... You could drive the Mars rover realtime, GPS would be able to resolve to a nanometer!!! and computers would have no latency and run at unimaginable speeds....
So, how could the UN not expose this already to a world that is so concerned with our environment and energy use.... It just does not make sense.
