REPORT: Pentagon hid classified weapons with UFO conspiracies

Going back to the first Trump administration, there has been a lot of talk about UFOs and secret files being hidden. 

Well, a new bombshell UFO report has been released, but it is more about what the Pentagon was hiding than what they are revealing about UFOs.  

Are UFOs real? 

That is the age-old question, and depending upon where you go, they will tell you that UFOs 100% exist.  

For instance, in Pascagoula, MS, there is a historical marker claiming two local shipyard workers spotted a UFO.  

It goes on to say, "Inside the craft, Hickson was examined by a robotic eye, then both men were deposited back on the river bank and the space ship shot away.” 

Mayor Jay Willis explained the market, stating, "Because these two guys had the same story of what happened, how it happened for the rest of their lives. This marker is going to be there for a long, long time. It's a lasting tribute … to what occurred right here in Pascagoula." 

A cover-up 

When Trump first mentioned declassifying UFO records, an expert on the top suspected that a massive cover-up would be exposed.  

Former U.K. Defense Ministry official and UFO expert Nick Pope explained, "The government for decades has investigated UFOs. I think it's undeniable that the government has looked at this for decades. They've had multiple programs. 

"A lot of people believe that there is a smoking gun somewhere in the files. It is a very widely held belief that elements in the U.S. intelligence community know that some of this is extraterrestrial and have documents and files relating to this.  

“And that, of course, is what everyone really wants to know. That's the $64,000 question.” 

Bombshell Report 

A recent report looked at earlier Pentagon records, and a bombshell was dropped that the Pentagon was allegedly using Area 51 conspiracy theories to hide the development of a secret weapon, the F-117 Nighthawk. 

The military decided that in order to cover up the new stealth fighter, it could use the UFO stories to hide the plane in real-time from the Russians (this was during the Cold War era).  

Sean Kirkpatrick, the first director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), was given the task of rooting through all the UFO stories, and the Nighthawk was just one instance where the military decided to allow the conspiracy theories to cover for reality.  

So, it would appear that Pope got the cover-up aspect of the story right, only the cover-up may have just blown the idea that we have real UFOs out of the water.
