Opinion | As a US whistle-blower raises the UFO question, perhaps it’s time the world looked for answers
- A whistle-blower says he gave US authorities extensive classified information about deeply covert programmes that possess retrieved craft of non-human origin
- It is easy to dismiss these claims as fantasy or fabrication, but maybe it’s time the world took the issue seriously
The whistle-blower is David Charles Grusch, a former combat officer in Afghanistan and veteran of the US National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office. He has also filed a complaint alleging he suffered illegal retaliation for his confidential disclosures.
Separately, Australian journalist Ross Coulthart interviewed Grusch for US television network NewsNation. Grusch asserted that the United States is in possession of multiple vehicles made by a “non-human intelligence”, and that this information is being illegally withheld from the US Congress. He has not seen these craft himself but claims he has talked with high-level people who have.
He says that these craft have either landed or crashed on Earth, and that the US government and defence contractors have made efforts to reverse-engineer the technologies involved. He also alluded to “dead pilots”, and said that some of the craft are as large as a football field and that the secrecy goes back 90 years.
