UFO Existence 'Proven Beyond Reasonable Doubt,' Says Former Head Of Pentagon Alien Program
Newsweek ^ | Lauren Gill

Posted on 12/24/2017 12:33:01 PM PST by RoosterRedux

Elizondo was not able to discuss specifics of the program, but told The Telegraph that there had been “lots” of UFO sightings and witnesses interviewed during the program’s five years.

Investigators pinpointed geographical “hot spots” that were sometimes near nuclear facilities and power plants and observed trends among the aircrafts including lack of flight surfaces on the objects and extreme manoeuvrability, Elizondo told The Telegraph.

"There was never any display of hostility but the way they manoeuvred, in ways no-one else in the world had, you have to be conscious something could happen,” he said.

Despite Pentagon funding running out in 2012, Elizondo oversaw UFO work for another five years before resigning in October 2017 out of frustration with the secrecy of the investigation. He had pushed for videos of the possible alien sightings to be made public so people could see the footage.

In his resignation letter to Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, he asked, “Why aren’t we spending more time and effort on this issue? There remains a vital need to ascertain capability and intent of these phenomena for the benefit of the armed forces and the nation."

Elizondo told The Telegraph he’d like to see someone prop up the probe again.

"I'd say bolster the programme. We want Nasa to find life on different planets, but we have highly educated pilots here and they're seeing something they can't understand."

Over the years I have noticed that a lot of Freepers are scared to death of the UFO subject...and rightly so.

A whole lot of denial.

But that's OK. They still come to these threads, so they must be trying to come to grips with this thing which is indeed scary to everyone.

I used to tell Quix about the fear/attraction of UFO's to Freepers/skeptics who kept showing up on the same threads (he may not remember).

Maybe someone will ask him?;-)

My 11th grade English teacher gave us both words on the same vocabulary list. Since then, I’ve always been confused about which is which.

I obviously can’t keep them straight.

He vaguely recalls mention of that. He doesn't keep names straight very well--lifetime weakness--but remembers content better and if face to face--faces and personalities better.

He agrees with your points about that, though. Well put.

As many have said ... it’s the 5% of sightings that resides outside normal parameters.

Sigh.

Where in the whole of the Bible is there a shred of a word, phrase or sentence the least bit insisting that there can be no UFO's fallen angel or other critters?

Uhhhhhhhhhhh . . . the SR71

Required a huge circumference for a simple turn.

UFO's turn on a time at great speeds far in excess of even that of the SR71.

PLEASE show us in the Bible where it prohibits the existence of UFOs, fallen angels or ‘other’ critters whether from distant planets or other dimensions.

Missed the point completely?

If they could design and fly a plane like the SR 71 back then, that long ago, WTH do they have now?

BTW, I had a neighbor that saw that craft during the Phoenix lights. He worked for Boeing as an engineer.

That engineer isnt the only one who saw that thing. Add thousands of people as well as the Governor of the state and its a bonified siting.

What did your Boeing engineer friend have to say about the Phoenix lights. We have seen the 35mm movie made by the MD and her hubby. We have listened to the Real Estate Broker who has spearheaded so much research on the topic.

Some claim we had our own UFO craft ... forgetting exactly ... by the late 50’s early 60’s.

Never saw anything like it. His kids were out on the patio that night and yelled for him and his wife to come out.

Said, absolutely no sound. It was big as he turned his head from side to side to see the ends. The lights were the drivers and not just lights. Said it looked as if it had some kind of cloaking device as there appeared to be waves created on it. It moved slow, and he never did get to see it disappear like others did.

A few weeks later, he and another guy got out a map and traced the supposed route of that thing as it made a turn somewhere around Prescott. Guess what area the origins came from?

He passed away years ago and the family moved away-they had a get away place around here. I have no idea where any of them are now. Just one of thousands that saw that thing. Wished I could have seen it.

I heard that was a guy around Prescott or someplace that really got a good look at it for minutes.

There are UFOs, they just are not what people think they are. IMO. Look, if these were from out there, there would be some type of radio or other disturbance that would be picked up. They’d be picked up leaving earth by telescopes.

Quick responses.

Some have been seen leaving as you assert.

However, we believe they are from another dimension, not distant planets. However, some large craft do seem to be parked otherwise in the solar system.

I just believe what will be will be, I do not believe
It has anything to do with if there is a God or not.
God is the God of the heavens also.

I will never deprive anyone the right to indulge in the fantasy of alien UFOs who are not fallen angels. You can squeeze them in between Malachi and Matthew; 400 years of silence.

Nevertheless, arguing from abject silence is hazardous.

Qx held out for a long time on the possibility that some of the "ET's might be good guys." Maybe there is a 0.0001% chance of that or some such.

Mostly, he now more agrees with Guy Malone, that they are all highly likely to be some version of in cahoots with the king of hell.
