Pentagon UFO Chief Resigns After Making Chilling Warning


In a sudden announcement the Pentagon’s UFO chief has revealed he will step down next month after saying several sightings of unidentified flying objects are the work of foreign nations or aliens

Sean Kirkpatrick, who is the head of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), announced his retirement after 18 months of leading the AARO.

Before announcing his retirement Kirkpatrick stated there have been over 800 reports of UFO sightings in his brief time as the head of the AARO and warned  “If we don’t prove it’s aliens, then what we’re finding is evidence of other people doing stuff in our backyard.”

Kirkpatrick was one of the key figures who called for the Pentagon to release the UFO files to the public.

Here’s what the New York Post reported:

The Pentagon’s UFO chief will step down next month after saying that several reported sightings of objects flying through the sky over the US are either the work of foreign nations or aliens, warning that the latter would be the preferred scenario.

Sean Kirkpatrick, head of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), announced his plans to leave last week after heading the department for 18 months, a job he deferred his retirement for in hopes of finding evidence of extraterrestrials.

After investigating more than 800 cases during his brief stint as director, Kirkpatrick warned of the presence of UFOs, and although there has yet to be any hard evidence of aliens, he said the alternative was much more frightening.

“If we don’t prove it’s aliens, then what we’re finding is evidence of other people doing stuff in our backyard,” he told Politico. “And that’s not good.”

Kirkpatrick added that he was satisfied with what he accomplished in his time with the AARO, including working to make the Pentagon’s UFO files more accessible to the public.

Per NDTV:

The chief of the Pentagon’s UFO investigation division will step down in December, the Department of Defence said. Sean Kirkpatrick, Director of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), announced his retirement after a 27-year career in the department and the United States Intelligence Community. He announced his plans after leading the department for 18 months. He stated that sightings of objects flying in the sky over the US are either aliens or technology of rival nations.
“I’m ready to move on. I have accomplished everything I said I was going to do,” Mr Kirkpatrick told Politico. He said that he still wants to finish “wrapping up the first volume of a historical review of the unidentified anomalous phenomena issue”, before leaving office.

Mr Kirkpatrick warned of the presence of UFOs after studying more than 800 instances during his tenure as director, and while there has yet to be any firm evidence of aliens, he felt the alternative was much more frightening. “If we don’t prove it’s aliens, then what we’re finding is evidence of other people doing stuff in our backyard. And that’s not good,” he added.
