White House UFO Afghan Hamster Guy is 'Outed'

Victoria Alexander reveals UFO-man Ron Pandolfi's long-rumored new position for energy development in Afghanistan. Are there new spy games afoot?
(STARpod.org) -- It's been a little more than a year since Dan Smith, the eccentric friend of CIA's Ron Pandolfi, mentioned "the White House Hamsters."
And then Dan added that Ron only works with "Afghan hamsters."
When Ron emailed me that Dan had probably concluded that the hamsters were probably 'aliens' -- given Dan's propensity to use Ron's position and friendship to promote his own belief in the eschatological implications of the government's 'phenomena problems' -- I ran with the story and wrote a tongue in cheek expose' inspired by Jon Ronson's 'Ron' reference in his book The Men Who Stare at Goats.
I suspected the Afghan reference was a thinly veiled way for Pandolfi to announce his new assignment to the world, knowing that Dan would blog the details at various Internet forums.
I even speculated that Pandolfi might have been inspired to explore the use of Afghan 'mouse-like' hamsters to detect improvised explosive devices.
Ron has a well known (if somewhat warped!) sense of humor and likes to play "spy games" on the Internet. With Dan as his foil -- and his shield -- Ron has freely played the spy games, dabbling in everything from psychic spying (as reported by Ronson) to detecting UFOs with passive radar.
A decade earlier, Ron was embroiled in the politics of the intelligence world, when his contribution to a National Intelligence Estimate (warning of unauthorized rocket technology transfers) ran head-first into the brick wall of Clinton-era overtures to the Chinese.
For UFO buffs of the classic variety (also known as the nuts and bolts crowd), Pandolfi was the CIA's 'rocket man' and was presumably aware of alleged reports of violations of US airspace.
And in spite of his efforts to remain mostly behind the scenes, Pandolfi knew and was well known by all of the major players in the world of paranormal phenomena.
According to her blog, Victoria Alexander has revealed that Ron is currently the Director of the Afghan Energy Project under the Office of the Chief Scientist at CIA.
According to Alexander, "Ron...is widely rumored to be at the core of the CIA's involvement with extraterrestrials."
That's interesting, because I have never seen any evidence that Ron (or anyone else at the CIA, for that matter!) was involved with extraterrestrials (beyond the previously mentioned Afghan 'mouse-like hamsters!).
"Who knows how these rumors get started?" asks Alexander.
According to Dan Smith, the rumors actually originated with Ron -- nearly twenty years ago -- when he told Smith he was heading out to Los Alamos (where, coincidently, Ms. Alexander's husband John was running a non-lethal weapons program).
When Pandolfi allegedly told Smith he was going to see the aliens at Los Alamos, Smith immediately broadcast Ron's joke to the world via Compuserve.
Pandolfi also told a caller from the United Kingdom he had been a member of a US government UFO working group. (And yes, we have the tape on file.)
Alexander commented that Ron "has a sharp wit and dry, amused humor" and that Ron is "a provocateur to the unstable, weak, conspiracy-minded people."
Actually, I believe that Ms. Alexander is understating Ron's true modus operandi as a master of the spy games.
As an example, Ron's friend Dan Smith (who relates that he was with President George H.W. Bush's sister Nancy Bush Ellis the day Iraq invaded Kuwait) may have been the first person to reveal that CIA had killed a national intelligence estimate that concluded there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
Smith revealed the CIA's NIE conflict with White House policy during a video taped interview in 2005 -- two years prior to an expose' article in Salon.
The article reported that "two former CIA officers say the president squelched top-secret intelligence, and a briefing by George Tenet, months before invading Iraq."
Ron has also tasked Smith, and others, to probe into areas of interest, including the esoteric topic of high frequency gravity waves.
When Pandolfi went after researchers seeking funding and cooperation with Chinese scientists, his investigation was revealed by Smith a year before the official government report was released to the public (less the redacted sensitive information).
Bottom line? Victoria Alexander's blogging about her friend Ron (after years of stealthy game playing in plain sight) is intended to dissuade further interest in Ron's work for CIA by the UFO/paranormal community.
And who knows? Given Ron's wit and clever use of the spy games, perhaps one day we will learn that the hamsters really are aliens.
