Knowing the Future: CIA, 9/11, UFOs, and the Extraterrestrial Presence Part Eleven: Forbidden Topics

Gary S. Bekkum
One man, and one man alone appears to occupy the best possible position to probe into the facts, fantasies, and fallacies behind the real-life "X-files" of UFOs, alien visitors, spies, lies, and polygraph tape.

And it was this same man, Ronald (Ron) S. Pandolfi, who in the latter half of 2006, forwarded a series of emails discussing a possible violation of national security.

(Note: In writing this account I have taken into consideration Pandolfi's role in providing the messages, his friend Dan Smith's analysis, as well as the opinion of our contributing source.)

The series of messages provided by Pandolfi tie together several threads directed towards government disclosure of the alleged "phenomenology problem" as well as raise new questions about the methods, motivations, and sources behind government-related persons and their involvement with forbidden topics.

To date, in this series I have presented an overview of how verified members of the American Intelligence Community (IC) have infiltrated and monitored various groups interested in extraterrestrial derived technologies: ideas inspired by the world of science fiction with the potential, no matter how remote, to be realized at some point in the future.

Among the various ideas under consideration are telepathy, psychic perception (remote viewing), precognition of future events for the war on terror, antigravity, gravity-like force beams, clusters of electrical charge for use as weapons, extracting energy from empty space, wormholes and warps drives, to name but a few.

This is the real-life "Fringe" of "Making STAR TREK Real" (coined by Jack Sarfatti) also known as the "Real X-files."

Some of these far-out ideas have already been funded by the United States government, as shown in the declassified record.

In this chapter, however, the tale turns much darker.

The messages in question appear to have been exchanged by Pandolfi with Rick Doty, a former USAF AFOSI agent working for New Mexico law enforcement, and Dr. Christopher "Kit" Green, who remains close to some of the top scientific intelligence advisers to the U.S. government.

Among the intelligence circles of Pandolfi, Green, and Doty, the rumor of extraterrestrial alien contact with the government of the United States of America is called "The Core Story."

In response to our inquiry, Dr. Pandolfi presented an explanation for why he released a group of email messages through a foreign national, who in 2006 also provided STARstream Research and STARpod.org with intelligence gathered during a personal investigation, citing sensitive sources and methods.

Dr. Green (who expressed personal outrage over the release) raised the issue of the ethics of spreading what had been understood to be personal and professional confidential information he had provided to Dr. Pandolfi. In addition Dr. Green noted that some of the exchanges were conducted over official government channels using DIA email servers.

Dr. Green, in spite of his impressive record and intelligence connections, appeared willing to have his personal response restrained by the fact that Pandolfi was positioned as a Senior Intelligence Adviser to the Director of National Intelligence.

At one point in the exchange Pandolfi told Doty the affair in question was outside the legal framework, which inspired the STARstream Research series EXEMPT FROM LEGAL RECOURSE:

"You have no legal recourse. I am interpreting your threat to the Official of the Director of National Intelligence as potentially outside the legal framework, and I will advise the FBI and your supervisor to take appropriate actions."

Dr. Pandolfi and Dr. Green are veterans of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Dr. Green left the agency in 1985, but according to his CV continues to provide professional (and classified) support to the U.S. Intelligence Community. His current presence on the DIA National Academies of Science TIGER Committee requires security clearance.

Dr. Pandolfi moved to the MASINT Committee of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence at the Defense Intelligence Agency, as noted in an official ODNI MITRE study obtained by the Federation of American Scientists.

Pandolfi remains a good friend of Dan T. Smith, another source from the private sector, who often provides details of Dr. Pandolfi's activities at his Best Possible World blog and at the Open Minds Forum on the Internet. Many items concerning Pandolfi's interests and activities, first mentioned by Mr. Smith, have later been verified.

We obtained copies of the Pandolfi distributed email messages from our acting source based in London, who in 2006 was a contributing journalist to STARstream Research. Several months after meeting with Pandolfi in 2006, our source was instructed to pass the email messages to the managers of another Internet forum, Reality Uncovered, as instructed by Dr. Pandolfi.

It is generally assumed this tale began in late 2005 when an anonymous source began providing details about "SERPO," an alleged human-extraterrestrial biological entity exchange program.

The real story, as best as can be discerned from additional information provided in early to mid 2005, may have been initiated by an earlier effort by Dan Smith to reach then President George W. Bush concerning the alleged "extraterrestrial presence."


It is Mr. Smith's contention that a previous incident involving his sister, brother-in-law, and a gift of Presidential cuff-links from the elder President George Bush, which exploded into a mainstream media expose' in the Washington Post, is related to his UFO-phenomenology disclosure effort.

According to Smith, his sister blamed the relationship between Smith and Pandolfi for the article.

As for any Presidential involvement with the I.C. "core story," one source to investigative author Gus Russo explained that "apparently the President does not have need to know" the truth behind the extraterrestrial UFO tales.

In the 2005 series of leaked messages, the originating source wrote, "For the time being, I do not need any additional named sources. I just need reasonable confidence that I have a reliable independent source for the core story. Despite Ron's occasional protestations, you remain my first preference."

This series of messages, which we refer to as "the team of three," involved discussion of how to best promote government disclosure of the alleged extraterrestrial core story, confirmation of some related details from the late DCI Richard Helms, and one team member offering that "I will think about this seriously, as long as our three-person team (you, me, and Ron) remains protected."

He then added, "I will cut and run the first instant I get a whiff that some list ... or whomever gets interested in me."

It was later added:

"To the extent the core story or any part of it is true, I believe it is being properly and legally protected. To the extent it is not true, or partly not true, that part is delusional or at best, rumor."

Taken out of context, the above might appear as the smoking gun for a UFO conspiracy, however:

"I have no intention trying to 'out' a story that may be legally being protected. In fact, I have taken an oath to not do so on my own recognizance."

And that, it would appear, is the conundrum faced by anyone who would bring the rumored core story to the attention of the President of the United States.

To the extent that there is any reality to the core story, and if it is true that the President, our Commander in Chief, has been isolated from the core intelligence of alien visitation by "no need to know," any valid disclosure effort must rely on creating enough curiosity for the White House to issue a statement, followed by official and mainstream media interest in tracking down the nature of black operations deemed too sensitive for Presidential knowledge.

"Like you, I will take my counsel from Ron. I want no more involvement in the soap opera."

Curiously, as 2005 wound down, the UFO core story "soap opera" would reappear on the Internet from a source we call "SERPO-A," taken from a quasi-anagram of the merging of "soap" and "opera."

"SERPO-A," or "SERPO Anonymous," promoted a human-extraterrestrial exchange tale first told on a national TV special broadcast in 1988 called "UFO Cover-up Live" by a source identified as FALCON of the AVIARY.

During that broadcast, which included a satellite feed to Soviet Russia, the existence of then SECRET paranormal research managed by the Defense Intelligence Agency was revealed.

By early 2006, the SERPO tale had infected various UFO groups and their related Internet discussions, and was continuing to spread.

Many, including Ron Pandolfi himself, would point to Rick Doty as the most likely source of the SERPO material -- "SERPO-A" -- and by June of 2006, our sources informed us of Pandolfi's intention to use an "unconventional method" to remove Doty from the picture.

On September 2, 2006, Pandolfi (taken from the messages Pandolfi released to our source) wrote to his colleague:

"Your expansion of the story of the two DIA employees visiting LANL and being known to others has me concerned. The names you provided do not correspond to any DIA employees. There are no people with those names that have TS//SCI clearances. If the story of the sources/visitors is true, they are falsely representing themselves as DIA employees, possibly to access sensitive facilities and acquire classified information for a foreign service."

Later, Pandolfi would write to Rick Doty:

"My colleague brought this issue to the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in the course of his official duties. I opened a direct dialog with you in order to provide you with an opportunity to provide additional information, and my colleague offered to facilitate your cooperation. You did not agree to cooperate via either venue. Rather you provided extraneous information and a string of threats. My official report will note your refusal to cooperate and include your e-mails containing threats."

To be continued.

The tale of the spies, the lies, and the polygraph controversy will begin in part twelve.
