Pro- and anti-UFO factions in government? It wouldn’t be the first time

For decades, the U.S. government has been divided on the issue of UFOs, with some officials believing that the phenomena are a national security threat and others dismissing them as a hoax. In the 1950s, the CIA even created a secret unit, known as the "UFO Desk," to investigate reports of unidentified flying objects. The latest controversy was sparked by the Pentagon's release of three videos showing "unexplained aerial phenomena."
