The US government's stance on UFOs has been of paramount national security and maintaining the status quo of denial, coverup and disinformation through the political, scientific, military, intelligence and civilian infrastructure of the country. William L. Moore, a UFO researcher of some note, admitted to, and was also outed as being a government disinformation agent. One of the sinister findings of the CIA-convened Robertson Panel, of 1952, was to infiltrate research organizations, to steer public interest away from UFOs and onto as many mundane explanations as possible.
Most of us in the UFO research community remember William L. Moore and fellow researcher Jamie Shandera receiving and disclosing the infamous Majestic-12 briefing document to then President Eisenhower. A document that was a beautifully crafted piece of forgery, later being exposed as a fraud through formatting errors and the such. He also admitted to spreading disinformation to Paul Bennewitz, a researcher who allegedly stumbled upon true aspects of UFOlogy and possible underground alien bases. Moore and USAF counterintelligence agent, Sergeant Richard Doty, embarked on a systematic campaign of disinformation to Bennewitz, and played a direct role in having Bennewitz involuntarily committed to a psychiatric hospital, through blatant disinformation.
Much of the classified information about UFOs is highly-compartmentalized and may only be known by a number of elite groupsl within the American government. Several US presidents apparently knew the truth. It is said that President Eisenhower knew about the Roswell UFO crash; President Kennedy found out aspects about UFOs and was assassinated; President Nixon arranged a 'tour' of alien bodies and debris for his friend famed comedian and famed bandleader Jackie Gleason; and President Reagan made some eye-opening speeches about aliens at the UN, mentioining a 'threat' from the cosmos and a need to unify the entire world against such a threat.
President Clinton may not have been entirely in the loop, as he concluded Roswell did not happen after he ordered a search for any classified documents pertaining to the crash and found nothing to corroborate an extraterrestrial hypothesis. But others say he knew. During the time of his watch, the USAF released the absolutely laughable, final official account on the Roswell crash. A compendium that sent guffaws through the research community and even some of the reporters assembled for the announcement. Interesting
