We now have a case example where we are -- apparently -- in possession of real world intelligence, the result of -- again, apparently -- a sticky UFO tale and open-source social networking.
The intelligence in question involves the identification of a CIA asset operating in a foreign country. If true, the information would be potentially damaging to CIA foreign collections, sources and methods.
The UFO tale in question acted as flypaper to attract real intelligence: revelation of the probable identity of a CIA-related covert operations officer working in a foreign country. It is unknown if this person was using official or non-official cover.
Our case file -- if it existed -- would include pictures of the alleged asset posted in social media, including pictures taken in the foreign country of interest, anecdotal accounts of intelligence activities and social events that allegedly took place in foreign locations.
Were we to reveal the information on the Internet, we would be at risk for violation of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act (1982):
"Whoever, in the course of a pattern of activities intended to identify and expose covert agents and with reason to believe that such activities would impair or impede the foreign intelligence activities of the United States, discloses any information that identifies an individual as a covert agent to any individual not authorized to receive classified information, knowing that the information disclosed so identifies such individual and that the United States is taking affirmative measures to conceal such individual's classified intelligence relationship to the United States, shall be fined under title 18, United States Code, or imprisoned not more than three years, or both."
Recently, the citizen journalists behind the 9/11 conspiracy website SecrecyKills.org were threatened by the CIA when they were able to determine the probable identities of CIA officers using open-source information. The CIA appears to have succeeded, as the SecrecyKills website now appears to have been removed from the Internet.
Although we have no intention of revealing the probable identity of a CIA operations case worker, we have moved forward with our research into an alleged post-9/11 paranormal investigation run out of Donald Rumsfeld's Office of the Secretary of Defense.
A source did provide us with email messages referencing Christopher Mellon at Rumsfeld's Office of the Secretary of Defense (2002) where UK psychic Chris Robinson was described as a 'walk-in' source. Colonel John B. Alexander called Robinson on the morning of 9/11 just after the towers were hit, but it is unknown if Alexander was aware that Mr. Robinson had attempted to warn CIA about the 'planes as cruise missiles' plot.
Dan Smith tells us that CIA official Ron Pandolfi and former senior CIA analyst Kit Green had expressed interest in a group of twenty U.S. officials allegedly briefed on a 'phenomenology problem' -- curiously, Chris Robinson tells us he presented to the Office of the Secretary of Defense for a core group of roughly twenty senior officials.
In addition to Mellon, Linton Wells II was also cited. Mellon and Wells were both in the loop concerning U.S. foreign intelligence collection of Russian and Chinese paranormal research (one name given in declassified files was FENIKS). In the mid-1990s intelligence officials sought funding for U.S. paranormal research from Andy Marshall with the Office of Net Assessments at the Pentagon, months prior to the takeover of the DIA STAR GATE psychic spy program by CIA in 1995.
Dan Smith often refers to a meeting with Mellon's colleague Christopher Straub on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, where the 'phenomenology problem' was discussed.
It's been an interesting year over at STARpod.us, the new STARstream Research website.
Migrating the older Microsoft-based website to a new Wordpress content management based site has been time consuming but the new site promises to be a more efficient way for us to provide you with the latest news from the strange world of weird science, psychic intelligence and perhaps, extraterrestrial alien contact.
