The Pentagon UAP Report
On December 16, 2017, *The New York Times* published a front-page article disclosing that a small, classified program inside the Pentagon — formally the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, informally AATIP — had been studying military encounters with Unidentified Aerial Phenomena since 2007. The article was accompanied by previously-classified U.S. Navy gun-camera footage of an oval-shaped object filmed off the coast of San Diego by an F/A-18F Super Hornet of the USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group in November 2004 — the so-called 'Tic-Tac' footage. Over the following seven years, the U.S. Department of Defense has progressively renamed its UAP investigation office (AATIP → UAPTF → AOIMSG → AARO), held three Congressional hearings on UAP, issued one Office of the Director of National Intelligence preliminary report (June 2021), one All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office Historical Record Report Volume I (March 2024), and received Senator Chuck Schumer's UAP Disclosure Act amendment to the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act in substantially diluted form. In July 2023 a former Air Force intelligence officer, David Grusch, testified under oath to the House Oversight Subcommittee on National Security that the U.S. government holds 'non-human biologics' recovered from crashed craft — testimony the Pentagon has denied. The substantive evidentiary picture has not changed since 2017. What has changed is what governments are willing to say in public about it. The case file is open.
Operation Northwoods
In March 1962, the Joint Chiefs of Staff put a document on Robert McNamara's desk. It proposed a series of false-flag attacks against the United States — sunk ships, civilian terror campaigns in Miami and Washington, a faked civilian airliner shoot-down — to manufacture public support for invading Cuba. Every member of the Joint Chiefs signed it. Kennedy rejected it within days. The document stayed buried for thirty-five years.
