(STARpod.org) -- More than fifteen years ago, the U.S.
Government revealed official interest in the use of mind-over-matter during the
height of the cold war. STAR GATE was the culmination of a series of various
programs involving psychic spies and mental influencing, run under the Defense
Intelligence Agency, the CIA, and armed services including the Army. USAF, the
Navy, and their intelligence divisions.
Buried deep within the eighty-thousand plus pages of released STAR GATE
documentation was a reference to a "Phoenix Program." The reference came near
the end-time of STAR GATE, suggesting that somewhere in the remaining
fifty-thousand plus pages of unreleased material were secrets still considered
vital to the national security.
If STAR GATE was a failed attempt, a twenty-year plus search for non-existent
pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo, then what of the unreleased material? What hidden
secrets remain of a program said to have been one of the biggest embarrassments
in the history of the intelligence world? Why were so many other nations
conducting their own psychic mind research behind closed doors? What about the
letter to the Pentagon's leader of Net Assessment, Andy Marshall, and memo's
about briefing Marshall on psychotronics and STAR GATE?
What we know to be true:
Several letters in the STAR GATE files, and a couple of documents discuss a
program called PHOENIX, with reference to "psychotronics," a cold-war term for
doing mind-to-mind battle with the enemy by means of weird science and
paranormal phenomenology.
In a letter dated September 22, 1994, from Jay Sloan, former officer at the
Defense Intelligence Agency we learn that, "Lin Wells has asked us to set up a
meeting with himself and Andy Marshall for the purpose of briefing Andy on
'Stargate' ... Focus of the briefing is substantive rundown to include the
Phenix [PHOENIX] program. To get Andy familiar with the activity, the need to
monitor, and an item of interest/concern from a DOD [Department of Defense]
perspective. Why? Among other things, because Andy might have some money he
would be willing to allocate to keep the contract DIA has had going -- the
contract that allowed for those unique contacts and sourcing leads."
Why is this so important? STAR GATE was shut down shortly after this letter was
written, in 1995, but this letter mentions the importance of monitoring
psychotronics foreign research efforts in paraphysics and phenomenology. Sloan
also mentions that, "This should be done ASAP, because Lin is orchestrating
interest in this subject in OSD [Office of the Secretary of Defense] prior to
the Yeltsin visit."
In a letter sent to Sloan a few hours later, an undisclosed party "came down a
couple of weeks ago and briefed Marshall on 'psychotronic weapons' - foreign
program etc. (talked a bit about PHOENIX). This was in response to his query
about what the weapons were. The session went very well ... however the briefing
did not formally talk about SG [STAR GATE] or any other related
programs/efforts."
Is this confirmation that "other related programs/efforts" existed outside of
the STAR GATE program? It certainly suggests compartmentalization of
psycho-paraphysical efforts at the Pentagon. Writer and humorist Jon Ronson has
written about other alleged efforts, some which are said to continue today as
part of the war on terror. STARstream Research has learned of at least one
former intelligence officer looking for financing to engage in advanced
mind-brain research experiments. What of the official 'black' work taking place
behind the closed door of national security?
As for the so-called PHOENIX program, clues remain sparse, but are sprinkled
within STAR GATE documents.
One clue can be found in a monthly activity report from December, 1993. Mundane
aspects of personnel vacancies and program administration are followed by
heavily redacted operational details.
An undisclosed (redacted) party "volunteered his services to conduct open source
research in the area of non-lethal technology as it applies to our mission
area." We only note here that the leading expert in the field of non-lethal
weapons is also a member of the so-called AVIARY group of military insiders
interested in phenomenology like UFO's and psychic powers: Colonel John B.
Alexander.
The document continues, " [redacted name] also offered his services in assisting
us in preparing briefings if so asked. [redacted name] performs open source data
searches for SAIC [STAR GATE's private sector contracted research partner,
"Science Applications International Corporation" ] in support of our contract."
Mention is made of Johns Hopkins Applied Physics laboratory research on the
biological effects of electromagnetic fields, and equivalent Russian programs.
Following the next heavily redacted section of the document is a paragraph dated
December 7, 1993, discussing so-called remote influencing:
"[redacted] attended a meeting with corporate management representatives of
Delfin Systems, Arlington, VA. Also in attendance was [redacted] ... conducted a
briefing in which he covered the history of Russian activity in the area of
remote influence and provided a current assessment of the 'Phoenix' devices."
The remainder of the document is heavily redacted, but there is another item of
interest:
"[redacted] reviewed and filed classified and open source literature on Activity
related R&D efforts in Russia, FSU, Europe, China, [redacted] and Central and
South America. [redacted] has drafted a paper on QIGONG practices/applications
in the PRC [People's Republic of China]."
Apparently the United States was in deep parapsychological competition for the
hearts and souls of the world population.
In a document simply titled "KEYWORD LIST," terms are provided without
explanation.
Among the keywords listed, which include "parapsychology," "psychoenergetics,"
"telepathy," and other buzz terms for paraphysics, is "Phoenix" ("Feniks")
Device."
The curious aspect of all of this comes from a confidential memo dated February
3rd, 1994, prior to the letters discussing the briefing for Andy Marshall. The
document is titled "Psychotronic Weapon Dupes KGB and Soviet Military." The
originator of the document is the "Foreign Science and Technology Center."
And there, listed under cover name, is "PHOENIX PROGRAM."
What follows is a text abstract that says:
In a 21 April 1993 Literaturnaya Gazeta interview, Vevgeniye Aleksandrov of
the Vavilona Optical Institute revealed that experiments conducted in the former
Soviet Union (FSU) on mind altering weapons were largely a hoax intended to milk
millions of rubles from the KGB and the military.
Aleksandrov, in commenting on the validity of psychotronic weapon research,
stated: 'The whole thing was a grandiose snow job, a monstrous squandering of
the national wealth, this work, fortunately for humanity, did not have any real
content; it was an imitation of work, science like shamanism. The military and
KGB were simply taken for a ride.' Since the 1970's, as much as 500 million
rubles may have been sunk into research programs aimed at producing weapons that
would transmit signals to modify the behavior of soldiers ... proponents of
these programs claimed that these psychotronic weapons could even kill enemy
troops.
If this revelation was indeed true, one might ask why STAR GATE files include
another copy of the September 22, 1994, letter from DIA's Jay Sloan, hand signed
and dated October 24th, 1994, with a list of items, the first three having been
check marked:
(1) Scalar [a reference to a kind of wave behavior thought to exist in
psychotronics]
(2) Weasle [sic] money out of Andy
(3) [unreadable] keep Jay informed
(4) Let agency brief [redacted]
ACTION [underlined]
Jay Sloan, 24 Oct
At the top of the same letter:
MFR: Response VIA Higgins to [redacted] on 25 Oct 94. Basically: (1) No
meeting - OBE [Overcome by Events], (2) MTG was to get Andy to fork over $ for
R&D.
And in the same handwriting, at the lower right hand corner:
File Wells [Lin Wells] Folder, thanks.
What might be a follow up letter, addressed directly to Andy Marshall, appears
in the STAR GATE files on the 27th of February, 1995, coming from the "Defense
Group Inc."
Dear Andy,
Per guidance from Lin Wells, the enclosed proposal (your copy) is to address the
sensitive matter discussed with you and Lin Wells earlier, and verbally
approved.
I have had the document written in response to your recent BAA whose deadline is
Tuesday, 28 February 1995, with delivery to Glenna Hughes. I have included
enough 'code word' phrases to identify the thrust of the work - but not the
scope or the totality.
Please call if I can clarify any issues.
Sincerely,
James P. Wade, Jr.
Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer
Sensitive matters, verbally approved, indeed. Is this a smoking gun in the hands
of those claiming that STAR GATE - like programs live on, even today, hidden in
the black operations of the Pentagon and the intelligence agencies? Or were the
Soviet scientists playing head games with both eastern and western governments?
What about programs in China, and other nations?
And now it can be revealed, according to UK psychic spy Chris Robinson, Lin
Wells was associated with a post-9/11 paranormal program to "know the future."
The real-life business of the government's X-files remains hidden in
plain sight. The government claims "we can neither confirm nor deny"
that documents exist showing extraterrestrial objects have been
tracked as they enter the Earth's air space. Meanwhile a handful of
very high ranking intelligence officials play out spy games on the
Internet about reverse engineering alien technology and a former CIA
Deputy Director for Intelligence is implicated in the sordid affair.
The core of this story involves high level government intelligence
persons and SERPO, a "soap opera" about US government contact with
an extraterrestrial alien intelligence.
Knowing the Future
TO THE MOON AND BACK, WITH

Secrets of the CORE STORY of
Extraterrestrial Alien Contact
His name is Ingo Swann. In the 1970s, he was one of America's secret
weapons brought to bear against the Soviet Union: a psychic spy,
personally tested by the CIA. In the 1980s, Swann held a TOP SECRET
clearance, and was instrumental in training Army and Defense
Intelligence Agency personnel. Swann's psychic methods were a key
component in the mind-war arsenal of the USAF, the Army, the Navy,
the Defense Intelligence Agency, and many others, hidden deep inside
compartments of the government.
A few years later Swann wrote one of the most bizarre accounts in
the history of the paranormal was effort, now documented by CIA
sanctioned release of the once super-secret programs known as STAR
GATE. According to Swann, a super-secret group led by a mysterious
"Mr. Axelrod" (his real name remains a closely held secret) put him
mind-to-mind and face-to-face against an extraterrestrial avatar in
human form.
The story of extraterrestrial human-mind to alien-mind telepathy,
dangerous personal encounters, and a near-death experience of coming
under laser fire from an extraterrestrial vehicle somewhere in the
northern wilderness of Alaska, sounds like pages torn from a science
fiction novel.
From the world of psychic spies, paranormal goat killers, and Skinwalkers
haunting remote regions of Utah, something wicked and wacky this way comes.
Drawn from the files of the private intelligence source STARstream Research:
A real-life tall-tale of espionage. At the core, a confrontation at CIA HQ
between a former CIA official and officers of the United States Air Force.
Twenty years later, the game continues where disturbing worlds collide. The
heart of the matter: a US Government UFO Working Group, dark secrets kept in
the shadows under the guise of counter-intelligence operations of the United
States Air Force, and decades-old rumors of extraterrestrial contact with
"something not of this world." The Official's concern: hidden within tales
of "Real Life X-Files" a potentially dangerous viral marketing scheme,
possibly intended to elicit real classified information from past and
present intelligence officers.
Stranger still, government files prove that the US government spent
decades exploring the paranormal psychic spying, in an effort to "know the
future" and beat the Russians, in a race to obtain technologies from beyond
our world.
This book is a collection of articles and materials originally published
on-line by STARstream Research, PR Web, and The American Chronicle, and at
the "Spies, Lies, and Polygraph Tape" blog. This is the first time they have
been made available in print. Included in this volume is the popular article
"To the Moon and Back, With Love," the story of CIA psychic Ingo Swann's
extraterrestrial encounters.
Also included in this volume: The sixteen part mini-book "Knowing the
Future: CIA, 9/11, UFOs, and the Extraterrestrial Presence," about the race
to obtain "alien" technologies.
