Book Review: Former Pentagon insider says U.S. unwilling to release all its UFO info | AP News

>A procession of books in recent years have explored the UFO phenomenon but few perhaps with the authority Luis Elizondo brings as a Defense Department insider, laboring for decades to learn who the visitors are, where they are from and what they want.

>In the 275 pages of "Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs," Elizondo provides evidence of what the U.S. Department of Defense knows with this somewhat surprising conclusion – Defense Department higher-ups often thwart Elizondo and his team's efforts.

>Why? Elizondo writes that the defense establishment doesn't want to present a problem it neither can explain nor offer a solution. But are these visitors a threat? Elizondo concludes that the visitors' capabilities make them a "very serious national security issue."

>Earliest documented UFO sightings go back to before World War II and since then, many UFOs have violated sensitive military airspace but no one appears to have been deliberately hurt by a UFO in the United States. However, perhaps given his combat experiences and long association with Defense Department work, Elizondo worries about another 9-11-type attack, a threat we should have anticipated but did not.

I don't always agree with Elizondo, he has reported many false news especially about rods, he seems like a crackpot, but I have read many of the sourced books here and I find them to be based on credible reports, just muddied by the authors' biases.
