- Government UFO disclosure "neither confirm nor deny" response
- Does the President of the United States have "need to know?"
- If not the President then who is accountable?
- Intelligence officials and others play out "spy games" on the
Internet involving alleged alien technology
- It is time for a serious investigation
MINNEAPOLIS (STARpod.org) --
The biggest question faced by the extraterrestrial disclosure movement (exopolitics)
is not whether the public has a right to know about the alleged alien
presence, but does the current President of the United States, Barack
Hussein Obama, have a "need to know."
A couple of years ago investigative author Gus Russo asked the question,
"Is Uncle Sam a closet UFOlogist?"
After reading various materials supplied by his sponsor, Dan T. Smith,
son of a famous Harvard economist who worked for the Eisenhower
administration, Russo concluded that the reason Smith's friend, former
CIA analyst Ronald "Ron" Pandolfi remained involved with UFO-related
topics and persons, was "national security."
At the time of Russo's investigation, Pandolfi was with the Office of
the Director of National Intelligence MASINT. The ODNI coordinates all
national intelligence and is responsible for briefing the President.
(Gus Russo's article, "The Real X-Files" is available at the STARpod.org
website.)
According to Smith, who notes that his older sister is a friend of Nancy
Bush Ellis (President George H.W. Bush's sister), with every change of
administration there is a ripple effect within the government's closely
held secrets that he calls the "repositioning."
A recent example is the Presidential release of classified CIA "torture
memos."
In spite of enhancements to Freedom Of Information (FOIA), attempts to
gain access to UFO-related government memos remains torturous, with
numerous escape clauses designed to protect the national security.
A recent attempt comes from Lee Graham, who was investigated by the
Defense Investigative Service for his UFO interests. Graham asked the
USAF for images of two specific anomalous "UFO" events.
The Air Force provided Graham with a "neither confirm not deny" response
on the grounds of national security.
One source to Russo, a gentleman who provides high level input to a
Defense Intelligence Agency sponsored National Academies' scientific
committee, was questioned about the extraterrestrial rumors:
"I have spoken to three former Presidents and the subject always comes
up, not as a briefing, but they also want to know the truth. But
apparently they aren´t cleared for it."
Perhaps the President is not allowed to discuss the topic with Senior
Intelligence Officials who are not on a short and closely held "need to
know" list.
One would hope (and naively expect) that "government of the people, by
the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Unfortunately the bitter history of secrets deemed too sensitive for
consumption by the man on the street and foreign governments, both
friend and foe, remains a stumbling block to further pursuit of the
topic.
I take note of my previous line with a sense of disdain: the citizens of
this nation and foreign nationals, both good and bad, have been
compartmented together under an umbrella of national secrecy.
The historical record is pockmarked by ugly abuses of power, intended
not for the protection of the people, but to conceal the nefarious
activities of select persons and their shadow agendas.
And so we are left to look to our leaders, and the President of the
United States, for guidance as we gaze into the dark unknown. If we
cannot see into the darkness, and if the leader of our nation has "no
need to know," then who remains accountable to our collective future?
At least the President remains comfortably visible.
We know for certain, based upon government documents and personal
accounts shared by many past and present officials, there exists an
interest in developing "crazy ideas" like telepathy, psychic remote
viewing, mind to mind influence, earth penetrating gravity waves,
anti-gravity propulsion, wormholes and warp drives, and other staples
from science fiction.
These exploits appear on the surface to be "extraterrestrial derived
technology."
Less is known about the levels of government in-the-know: one
declassified example from the 1980s proves that TOP SECRET research into
psychic warfare against terrorists was a topic directed to the Deputy
Secretary of Defense when "human-use" guidelines required high-level
approval.
It was the elder President H.W. Bush, a former DCI, who was later
briefed on the psychic programs as Vice President during the Reagan
Administration. With the officially sanctioned release of the CIA STAR
GATE files, we are able to prove the almost unbelievable depth of
secrecy used to protect "the men who stared at empty space" of their
mind's eye in the 1980s.
It does give pause to the idea of obtaining any access to information
about an alleged alien presence.
The topic of psychic defense returned following 9/11, as told by British
author Jon Ronson in his book, THE MEN WHO STARE AT GOATS. Ronson's book
has been adapted into a fictional film starring George Clooney.
I have mentioned Ron Pandolfi, and Dan Smith's "repositioning" as it
relates to government disclosure of an alleged "extraterrestrial
presence."
For Jon Ronson, the trail began with the search for "Ron," a mysterious
intelligence official psychic Uri Geller identified as the man who
"reactivated" his services for the Bush War on Terror.
A prior effort to dislodge the secrets was launched with the
repositioning taking place when Bill Clinton was elected, and Ron
Pandolfi was involved as well.
The story is told by Grant Cameron at his http://www.presidentialufo.com
website, and involved familiar names like Laurance Rockefeller, his
friendship with Hillary Clinton, and many involved in the Bill Clinton
Administration including Leon Panetta, the current Director of Central
Intelligence (DCI).
It is worth noting that the job of briefing the President was taken from
the DCI and handed to the Director of National Intelligence (DNI).
Pandolfi's last known position with the Office of the DNI places him
close to the primary authority for all US intelligence agencies.
It is also worth mentioning in 2006 Pandolfi passed email messages to US
and foreign nationals concerning a possible penetration of secure
facilities, including some at Los Alamos, by a former USAF agent named
Rick Doty, under an agenda to see "who would take Rick's place" in
promoting a "core story" of extraterrestrial visitation.
Curiously this all went away without much fanfare, in spite of
discussion of the FBI and Justice Department and the fact that Doty
continues to work for law enforcement in New Mexico.
When Pandolfi was publicly confronted concerning this release, he
requested redaction of specific detailed information concerning "sources
and methods" and stated that the entire affair was a "personal matter"
to protect John Gannon, former Deputy Director for Intelligence at CIA
during the Clinton Administration.
John Gannon's name had been allegedly passed on by two "DIA sources" who
were never identified, according to Pandolfi's email.
Meanwhile Pandolfi maintained a personal interest in other alleged
"derived alien technology" including RAM -- Replication Alien Machine --
and ARV -- Alien Reproduction Vehicle.
A primary party interested in moving disclosure of the alleged RAM/ARV
technologies is Gordon Novel, a man notable for his "intelligence file"
which goes back to the Jim Garrison JFK assassination conspiracy
investigation of the 1960s.
The "intelligence files" concerning Mr. Novel come from CIA, FBI, and
ONI offices.
Based upon email exchanges I have seen, Pandolfi, the former CIA man and
ODNI scientific expert, apparently supports Mr. Novel's right to pursue
the alleged alien technology.
In recent years Mr. Novel, who was consulted by pop superstar Michael
Jackson according to a feature story in VANITY FAIR, has been more
forthcoming about his interest in the alleged ET technology.
Michael Jackson is a friend of Uri Geller, the UK based psychic star Jon
Ronson claims sent him on a search for "Ron" which uncovered the
psychokinetic heart-stopping "Men Who Stare at Goats."
Meanwhile Mr. Novel continues to promote the RAM/ARV quest which
included a quietly conducted confidential study by a major university on
the effect of time machines on human psychology.
This weird mixture of superstar personalities, scientific and
techno-futurists, government intelligence officials, foreign nationals,
use of the Internet in violation of government guidelines, and the
personal agendas of the rich and strange has evolved into a convoluted
spy game.
Rather than pressing disclosure of government secrecy forward, the spy
game disrupts any serious attempt to engage the mainstream media for a
sensible, reasoned evaluation of what may truly be going on behind the
scenes.
A few years ago Sharon Weinberger, a well known author and defense
journalist answered my request for a letter of reference on the topics
of interest here.
Weinberger wrote, "The Pentagon and national security institutions are a
reflection of society --meaning, as in society, there are those who in
the Pentagon who believe in psychics, UFOs and similar things.
Regardless of whether one agrees with their view -- the fact that these
officials have influenced policy is fascinating, sometimes frightening,
and certainly worth writing about."
It is time for the mainstream media to realize this is serious business:
these are the people who will help direct the future course of our
nation's defense.
It is time to move ahead of the spy game and engage the issue in a calm,
clear, and unbiased fashion.
Information fed to the public directly impacts the national health and
well being of countless millions of individuals. Deliberate
disinformation, fantasy, and unfounded belief systems fed by
quasi-official input from players at the spy game can and often does
make people sick.
An esteemed American hero, Dr. Edgar Mitchell, the sixth human being to
walk on the moon, has also called for a serious investigation based on
rumors and roadblocks he has encountered concerning an "extraterrestrial
presence."
When Dr. Mitchell's comments about alien visitation were picked up by
the mainstream media last summer, he asked for my assistance in
clarifying that the truth remains opaque to him as well.
Dr. Mitchell pointed to an article from Jane's Defence Weekly, the
preeminent defense publication, where it was noted:
"An unacknowledged SAP [Special Access Program] -- a black program -- is
a program considered so sensitive that the fact of its existence is a
"core secret," defined in USAF regulations as "any item, progress,
strategy or element of information, the compromise of which would result
in unrecoverable failure. In other words, revealing the existence of a
black program would undermine its military value."
What is the acceptable cost to be paid by the public at large to protect
"military value" -- especially when that protection appears to be making
members of the public ill?
One item so secret it remained "in the black" for years was the
existence of a doomsday martial law order initialed by President
Eisenhower. The order was prepared and kept locked in a White House
safe.
It was during those same dark years, when mortal men faced the untenable
prospect of restoring order following a nuclear holocaust, that the
legends of crashed flying saucers and alien recoveries are said to have
taken place.
Nothing short of open intelligence committee hearings or action from the
White House will resolve these issues, which remain an open sore on the
public consciousness.
