A Pentagon whistleblower who has been outspoken about UFOs has filed a complaint with the inspector general accusing his former agency of malicious activities, coordinated disinformation, professional misconduct, whistleblower reprisal and explicit threats, according to Politico.
Luis Elizondo, who was head of the Pentagons discontinued Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, claims a senior-level official even threatened to call him crazy and wage a disinformation campaign to discredit him.
I responded
by telling him that he can take any action he thinks is prudently necessary, but that I was not mentally impaired, nor have I ever violated my security oath, Elizondo wrote, adding that the Pentagons press team even got involved.
Elizondo said he felt the need to become a whistleblower out of fear and concern for the country. I became alarmed by the frequency and duration of UAP activity in and around controlled U.S. airspace, he said. The instances seemed more provocative, and during one instance, they came within feet of a U.S. fighter aircraft.
A spokesperson for the Defense Department Inspector General's Office declined to comment.

(11,312 posts)enough to stop him from creating a docuseries -- that focuses largely on -- yours truly. My point? I think the case can be made (quite adequately) -- without recourse to figures of this -- character? Getting the truth out is one thing -- a need for the spotlight something else (often with detrimental effect to the story itself). Is this person the 'patriotic whistleblower' that he (self-) advertises? I guess time will tell.
