Former Pentagon Official Speaks Out on UFOs in New Book
- Former Pentagon insider claims US government has retrieved alien technology and bodies for over 50 years.
- Luis Elizondo argues that unidentified anomalous phenomena pose a national security threat.
- The disclosure raises questions about the government's knowledge of UFOs and alien technology.
Luis Elizondo, a former senior defense official and director of the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), has shared his experiences with unidentified flying objects (UFOs) in his new book, "Imminent: Inside the Pentagon’s Hunt for UFOs." Elizondo, who has a background in highly classified programs, recounts his personal encounters with glowing orbs above his Maryland home, which even convinced his initially skeptical wife. His insights are particularly significant given his extensive experience within the Defense Department. In his 275-page book, Elizondo reveals that his efforts to investigate UFOs were often obstructed by higher-ups in the Defense Department, who were reluctant to acknowledge a problem they could neither explain nor resolve. He expresses concern over the potential for a catastrophic event similar to the 9/11 attacks, emphasizing the need for vigilance regarding unidentified aerial phenomena. Despite the bureaucratic hurdles, Elizondo's work has contributed to a gradual release of information about UFOs to the public. Elizondo's resignation from the Defense Department was driven by his frustration with the lack of transparency regarding UFOs, which he believes possess technology far beyond current human capabilities. He highlights a troubling trend within the Defense bureaucracy, where elected officials are viewed as temporary figures to be managed rather than informed. While the government has begun to disclose more information about UFOs, Elizondo fears that the full extent of what is known may never be revealed, leaving the public largely indifferent to the reality of extraterrestrial visitors.
