The Wall Street Journal has conducted an investigation that has revealed a Pentagon UFO disinformation effort going back decades aimed at making people think the objects are extraterrestrial to distract from top-secret U.S. military programs.

Here is one retelling of the Journal’s investigation, posted on Reddit:

Among the major takeaways:

• The Pentagon has been issuing UFO disinformation for decades to distract from top-secret programs.
• Incoming military officials have been the victims of UFO “hazing,” a practice in which they are fed disinformation to make them think top-secret programs are reverse-engineered extraterrestrial tech.
• Bizarre UFO encounters over U.S. missile installations in the 1960s were top-secret Pentagon tests to determine whether the silos would be vulnerable to electromagnetic pulses from Russian nukes. Even the officials who operate the installations did not know about the secret tests, leading them to think all these years that it was E.T.
• The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, omitted revelations about the Pentagon disinformation efforts in its big report released last year, but the information in some redacted form will be included in the next report from AARO, whenever that’s going to be released.

MAJOR FOLLOW-UP QUESTIONS:

• The electromagnetic test apparatus used over the nuclear missile launch facilities was suspended from or housed within some kind of platform. What was that platform?
• What are all of the other top-secret programs that were being protected by disinformation? Were any of these new or different types of propulsion systems that might appear to be from an alien planet if you didn’t know otherwise?
• Is the Pentagon UFO disinformation continuing to this day? So, are some of the people who have been testifying recently before Congress agents of the Pentagon disinformation machine?
• Is the disinformation being used to hide the existence of a host of top-secret programs in aviation and space travel? If so, is there a shadow space program that runs parallel to NASA and the Space Force but is far more capable than either of those entities.
• Have all of the major UFO encounters and sightings over the decades stemmed from top-secret U.S. technologies, starting with Kenneth Arnold’s sighting in 1947 and the UFOs over Washington, D.C., in 1952?
