Hello and welcome to the program UFO warning Hennis episode.
We're talking about the Baghdad Phantom, that's correct.
The Baghdad Phantom. Now, we brought this up on the
show yesterday, it's a UFO that was the footage first release by
Jeremy Korbel, and George Knapp. And there's some question about
this, because apparently, when John Greenwald tried to access
the data surrounding this video with a foia request.
He was told in part, they couldn't release it because
there was an ongoing investigation legal
investigation. I think they said, what's that
would imply that somebody could be in hot water for releasing
classified information or information that they weren't
supposed to have their hands on still haven't heard anything,
you know about what's going on there, but we could see
developments in a such a way that we're kind of, this black
hand comes down over the UFO Community.
As far as investigators are concerned where they just have
to be Really careful about what they releasing anyway.
It's fascinating video clip that they put out there for the you
know the community to see the article that we're talking about
here comes from Daily Mail .co.uk it's dated March 7th 2023
written. By Josh Boswell says Chris sharp
for daily mail.com title says exclusive.
The truth is out there. Skinny cylindrical UFO.
Flying. Near Baghdad, as seen a new and
six new thermal images taken by us spy drone last year.
Images of a UFO were taken from a video film by a thermal camera
in a United States. Air Force Reaper drone in May
20-22 the six images appear to show a skinny cylindrical shaped
object over Northeastern Iraq. Close to Baghdad moving across
the screen from left to right. The object also didn't have any
visible wings or fins likely ruling it out as a glider.
This long tubular thing. You see in the videos are the
pictures of it rather and I'll post season the buy me a coffee
a website, very strange. Spy plane image is obtained by
daily mail.com show a UFO flying over flying at near Baghdad.
Last year the six images appear to show a skinny, cylindrical
object over Northeastern Iraq, close to Baghdad moving across
the screen from left to right. Images were taken from a video.
Filmed by a thermal camera in a United States Air Force.
Reaper drone on May 20 22 and have been dubbed.
The Baghdad Phantom a source with knowledge of the incident
said the object was flagged in an Air Force repository as an
unidentified aerial phenomenon, the government's preferred term
for UFOs last year because of its strange characteristics.
So what are telling you that there's nothing to see here
while they haven't come across any images that show an object
defying the laws of physics, where everything's Hannibal we
got this going on. Fast-moving craft are powered by
propulsion systems like rockets are engines that create heat but
the thermal camera, the film, the object showed it was colder
than its surroundings, isn't that interesting and then it has
the six images or six images appear to show a skinny,
cylindrical shaped object over. Northeastern over Northeastern
Iraq, close to Baghdad and you can see the saying it, just
almost looks like a long. Snake liked tube-like metal
object, the images were leaked to journalist, and documentary
filmmaker, Jeremy Korbel, left, and investigative journalist,
George Knapp, right? And release shortly after
midnight on weaponize, their new podcast, that's kind of a kick
their podcast off. Boy, the object also didn't have
any visible wings or fins likely ruling it out as a glider.
The US Air Force Source said the UFO had no visible propulsion
and appeared to be under intelligent control.
That's the source, you know, I think they're getting into some
deep water here, because you've got George and Jerry.
Jeremy whether releasing this these pictures.
Now, those pictures came off a Reaper drone as he said, you
know, if you don't have permission to release those
things man, you could find yourself in some seriously hot
water and then the Daily Mail, they're talking to an unnamed
Source. I really feel like some of these
people are putting themselves at Great legal.
Jeopardy. I mean, after we've seen what
happened to Snowden and Julian Assange, I don't know.
The images were leaked to journalist, and documentary,
filmmaker, Jeremy Kordell, and investigative journalist, George
Knapp and really shortly after midnight on weaponize.
Our new podcast. I see that.
That's what we're talking about this denial of the refoy request
to John Greenwald where they said that there was an ongoing
legal investigation. I mean, could they be
investigating these guys over the Sleek?
What George? And I have uncovered, is a
Reaper drone footage over an active war zone.
Korbel told that he mail.com it shows an anomalous object, which
has been designed as designated as a UAP by our own Air Force.
Yeah, let's identify as flying. So I'd called a UFO like our
government. We as journalists are curious
about what can be seen in these images.
The object appears to have no flight control surfaces, no
traditional reactionary propulsion, and it's cooler than
its surrounding environment. This isn't your grandma's
rocket. What you're looking at the six
intriguing images show the elongated object at the bottom
of the screen moving from left to right, it appear darker than
its background on the thermal camera.
Indicating it was colder than its surroundings.
The images appear to show some kind of Trail or stream left in
the back down. If Adams week wake though it
could be an artifact from the video from which they were
taken. So it looks like a sleeve and
some kind of a I don't know if you'd call it a trail or an
exhaust to whatever it maybe it's just some kind of you know
gravity wave we don't know or it could be an artifact of the
camera. Daily mail.com understands the
UFO was not shot at by the US Air Force because it had no a
load. For example, potential bomb and
did not get close to ground troops.
Oh, for crying out loud. How would you know that?
I mean, you've got this, you've got this cylindrical tube.
Just moving along on its own. You know what's inside the
thing. Obviously, it's able to Move
with no visible means of propulsion.
No visible means of lift, and you just assume that it hasn't
got a bomb. The object, was designated as
unidentified aerial phenomena and official term which has
since been replaced with an identified Anonymous phenomenon.
See how they change these terms back and forth.
It's it's ridiculous, really. It's just control freaks.
It goes on here, has a few pictures of it listed.
It says, Corporal told daily.com that the images were leaked by
frustrated, US Air Force members, who claim that
significant numbers of UFO, incidents are being buried by
the Air Force. You know, I'm just worn these
guys, Snowden was frustrated with all the spying that was
going on, which anybody that was aware, knew it was going on.
We didn't need Edward Snowden to tell us about the about all the
spying. I mean, any both common sense
going to just assume that No, but he felt like he had to come
out here and tell us about it and and he's had to get a change
of address to Russia. I'm not sure that I would bend
the rules as customer melon says and release the stuff you know
without permission. I would just hate to end up in a
federal prison somewhere Korbel told daily.com daily mail.com
that the images were leaked by front by frustrated, US Air
Force members, that's plural who claim that significant numbers
of UFO. Incidents are being buried by
the The Air Force daily mail.com understands that many of these
incidents including the May 20-22 UFO video.
We're not shared with intelligence agencies or the
government's UFO office. The old domain anomaly research
office. You see other compartmentalizing
this stuff soon as it happens, as soon as a pictures taken, it
becomes proprietary. Someone's got to hold on to that
because somebody wants that knowledge because knowledge is
power. Normally data from an incident.
Like this near Baghdad would be To United States Central Command
centcom, which oversees operations against Isis in Iraq.
But it is unclear whether the command we see the video or any
other information on the incident, well, maybe they were
afraid that they would get orders to shoot this thing down
and didn't want and they didn't want to do that in jeopardize a
troops u.s. legislation requires that a Aro collects information
on UAP incidents from the Department of Defense and the
intelligence Community they got about as much luck.
Doing that as I do. You mean you have a department
with one or two people in it? And they're going to collect
information from the dod, come on.
But Christopher melon, we talked about him yesterday.
The former deputy assistant secretary of defense for
intelligence recently called out the Air Force for allegedly
failing to embrace reporting of strange objects.
The Navy was notably helpful, while the Air Force remained
notably unhelpful, if not hostile to inquires on the
subject, he wrote. February 14th blog post the
preliminary assistant provided to Congress about UFOs.
In 2021 was almost completely devoid of information from the
US Air Force. Despite the fact that the Air
Force as Department which also oversees u.s. space force,
haven't heard much of them. Lately has far more aircraft and
sensor systems in the Navy, as well as the responsibility for
supporting NORAD, corbel warned, the alleged failure to share
information as putting servicemen, and women at risk,
Ask, you know, he could be careful here because they could
turn right around and say that by sharing this stuff, he's
letting the enemy know what kind of capabilities that we have.
Therefore, he's putting them at risk.
I tell you, I think human Georgia walking on thin ice
here, this case represents other, you APS film by our Air
Force, which have been kept hidden from American taxpayers
and our intelligence Community had told Daddy mail.com.
They've kept lots of things hidden from us, okay?
They've kept the Tuskegee Very much hidden from us.
You can look that up. Pretty disgusting.
They've kept experiments hidden, where they secretly dose.
The CIA agents with LSD kept it hidden from us kept experiments,
I believe it was in San Francisco, New York, where they
intentionally spread a virus through the subway system to see
how many people would show up at the doctor's office sick because
they could track it. Yeah, they've done a lot of this
stuff secretly. So this shouldn't be Surprise to
anybody who actually thinking cap on it says, Air Force
personnel. Have told me that they are
highly concerned that this phenomenon, maintains a
regretful stigma that inhibits proper reporting and response
within the chain of command. The Air Force is an exemplary
branch of our armed services. We should encourage greater UAP
transparency for the good of country for the good of the
country and are participating Services.
Look any information we put out Publicly, it means the Chinese
and the Russians automatically have it.
The military is not about transparency.
The military is about deception and that's how you gain
advantage in a war situation is through deception.
So don't look for transparency from these guys.
That's not their job as journalists George.
And I feel duty to inform the public and situations like this
or our representations have failed to provide transparency
and have in fact obstructed it honestly I think him And George
would be a lot better off to try to get behind a crowdsourcing
effort like this 360 that we're talking about where people can
videotape the video record these UFOs as opposed to having to
clandestinely acquire these for military personnel and risk.
The chance of going to prison for for obtaining and possessing
classified military classified information.
And it says As journalist George and I feel a duty to inform the
public and situations like this where our Representatives have
failed to provide transparency and have.
In fact, obstructed, it following the shooting of one of
one Chinese balloon and three unidentified objects over North
American airspace last month. The topic of UFOs threatening
American interest in air traffic has become a Hot Topic within
Congress. After the shoot down as Vice
chair of the US, select committee on intelligence,
Elegance the US Senate select committee on intelligence, Marco
Rubio said the last 72 hours have revealed to the public.
What was happening for years? Unidentified craft aircraft,
routinely operating over restricted airspace.
When we've known this, an image obtained exclusively by daily
mail.com from corbel and app in January of what appears to be a
metallic-looking. Orbs flying over mosul Iraq.
In April 2016 was included in a classified briefing video on
Bose shown to multiple US government agencies.
So, that's two of these that they've got out of the rack and
January, a Aros director. Sean Kilpatrick gave a
presentation at an aviation safety conference, warning of
threats, to the immediate safety of us, and the u.s. citizens and
government facilities posed by UAP.
His presentation slides reported in a daily mail.com story.
Last month said that the military is finding unidentified
anomalous. Phenomena most often in the
vicinity of US military facilities and operating areas
which would include conflict zones like Iraq, the Iraq, the
Iraqi Air Force began a six-month pilot program in
November 20. 20 to collect data on UFOs according to a pentagon
spokesman but ended it the following spring lessons.
Has learned from the pilot were used to improve support provided
to the you a PTF and will be used to contribute to the
efforts of Arrow. If applicable data gathered in
the gathered in the pilot was provided through command
channels to you a PDF Pentagon, spokeswoman Susan.
Gal said in a statement. Yeah we've heard her name
before. I got to tell you anything and
August 20, 21 Air Force. Secretary, Frank Kendall told
political I've given a great deal of thought to defending I
can airspace but not against UFOs.
If asked to do that, then we will do it.
This is a thing that's been around for a great many years,
so it's been around this whole time but he has to give any
thought to it. I don't know, doesn't sound like
a very good answer to me. The late, May 22 images.
Follow the reason release of the muzzle orbit image also obtained
by Korbel. On app, showing a sphere shaped
UFO, filmed by a u.s. spy plane. Over the northern Iraq city of
Muslim, 2016? The Pentagon has yet to confirm
the authenticity of the Muslims. I think they have by now.
Gob said that I'm not going to comment on whether something is
or is not part of a classified briefing Korbel called on the
public to help analyze and identify the new images hand,
nap attain. It is my hope that by obtaining
and releasing imagery like this. The public 8.
The public can help solve this Collective mystery and inspired
greater transparency of our Department of Defense.
Not likely the pentagon's over-classification.
A crew is corrosive, like an acid and has been weaponized
against the American public's, right?
And need to know about UFOs, it's time that they earn the
people's trust back. Well, I would agree.
They just want to classify everything tons and tons, and
tons of this stuff. And it's a way to get people
jammed up and that's why I don't think we can ever get any kind
of disclosure from the government because I just stamp
a classified label on everything.
And then you're looking at prison time.
If you release it, what needs to be done?
Here is Is the public needs to crowdsource data about the UFO
experiencing? And they also need to talk about
their experiences so that we can begin to develop a full picture
of what's going on here. But one thing I think that we
can we can see it's pretty clear here is that we're not going to
get any answers from the government.
It's going to have to come from us.
Until next time, this is UFO morning over and out.
