Knowing the Future: CIA, 9/11, UFOs and the Extraterrestrial Presence Part Eight

(STARpod.org) -- According to Dan T. Smith, son of the Harvard economist who served as tax advisor to the Eisenhower administration, there is a core "phenomenology problem" faced by today's Intelligence Community.

So what exactly is meant by a "phenomenology problem," and how was it recognized in the first place?

According to an undated draft CIA memorandum, Walter B. Smith, Director of Central Intelligence in the early 1950s, sent a proposal to the National Security Council which concluded that "the problems with unidentified flying objects appear to have implications for psychological warfare, as well as for intelligence and operations."

Smith, both Dan and Walter, point to the same "phenomenology problem" now, as then.

It is no longer a matter of uninformed speculation: the United States, Great Britain, China, Russia, and the Former Soviet Union, to name a few, are concerned about strange phenomena.

As the Freedom of Information Act pushed tightly held secrets into the harsh light of public opinion, bits and pieces of a dark -- some might say disturbing -- secret world have been revealed.

In some Intelligence Community (I.C.) circles it is known as the "Core Story."

And the secrets are alleged to involve government contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence.

To begin to untangle the myth and reality behind the spy games played with these UFO tales, one must take a journey into the historical record.
