I have heard the information was released because a made for TV production going into the (up until recently, secret) details will be aired very soon, and the government wanted to take some of the wind out of its sails with a preemptive release of some (of the lamest and crappiest) of their UFO videos. I suspect this is just another small step toward disclosure and that the plan is to very slowly and gradually desensitize the world to the idea of aliens but to eventually use their existence to justify a one world government…

an article at CNN today tells us:
(CNN) “A former Pentagon official who led a recently revealed government program to research potential UFOs said Monday evening that he believes there is evidence of alien life reaching Earth.

“Over the weekend, the New York Times and Politico unveiled the existence of a secret $22 million Pentagon program to research unidentified flying objects, or “unidentified aerial phenomena” in military parlance, between 2007 and 2012. The program, known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, looked into incidents in which military personnel witnessed mysterious aircraft with unusual behavior — some of which were captured on video.
Though the Pentagon’s project is officially over, officials reportedly continue to investigate UFO sightings. What’s more, the former head of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program has now joined a private UFO research company called To the Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences, which has released two military videos showing unexplained aircraft. Here’s what we know.
The Former Head Of The Pentagon’s Secret UFO Program Pushed To Publicize Footage Of Mysterious Crafts
Luis Elizondo, who ran the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, resigned in October to protest the secrecy surrounding the Pentagon’s UFO research and institutional resistance to supporting the research. Before he left, he pushed the Defense Department to release videos of three military sightings of unexplained aircraft.
Just before leaving his Defense Department job two months ago, intelligence officer Luis Elizondo quietly arranged to secure the release of three of the most unusual videos in the Pentagon’s secret vaults: raw footage from encounters between fighter jets and “anomalous aerial vehicles” — military jargon for UFOs.
The videos, all taken from cockpit cameras, show pilots struggling to lock their radars on oval-shaped vessels that, on screen, look vaguely like giant flying Tic Tacs. The strange aircraft — no claims are made about their possible origins or makeup — appear to hover briefly before sprinting away at speeds that elicit gasps and shouts from the pilots.
So far, two of the three videos have been publicized by To The Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences, the private UFO-research firm that Elizondo now works for. But Elizondo told Politico that the three videos represent only a fraction of “scores” of similar sightings.
The “unidentified aerial phenomena” claimed to have been seen by pilots and other military personnel appeared vastly more advanced than those in American or foreign arsenals. In some cases they maneuvered so unusually and so fast that they seemed to defy the laws of physics, according to multiple sources directly involved in or briefed on the effort and a review of unclassified Defense Department and congressional documents…
He described scores of unexplained sightings by Navy pilots and other observers of aircraft with capabilities far beyond what is currently considered aerodynamically possible. The sightings, Elizondo told POLITICO, were often reported in the vicinity of nuclear facilities, either ships at sea or power plants. “We had never seen anything like it.”
…The Founder Of To The Stars Says These Revelations Are ‘Only The Tip Of The Spear’
To the Stars founder Tom DeLonge, the former Blink-182 guitarist and vocalist, told the New York Daily News “there’s a lot more shit coming” in terms of UFO research. He also said he hopes To the Stars will be able to “engineer[] the space-time metric,” allowing people to travel across the globe near-instantaneously.
According to DeLonge, disclosures like Saturday’s report are “only the tip of the spear,” and further “confirmation” of extraterrestrial life will continue to trickle out…
“All the things (people have) heard about and seen are the first step of 20,” DeLonge said. “There’s a lot more s–t coming.”
