Lynn A Surgalla, Former Vice-President
United States Psychotronics Association
PO Box 2
Monmouth Beach, NJ 07750
To the Court:
As Former Vice-President of the United States Psychotronics
Association, I assure the Court that the illegal testing, development
and use of Psychotronic, Microwave, Laser and other forms of
Electromagnetic Directed Energy Weaponry is a matter of grave concern
to both the US and International Communities. These weapons are ALL
potentially LETHAL, although sublethal injuries may also be inflicted
as with the use of any other lethal weapon such as a gun, knife or
chemical poison. Assault and Battery and/or torture/murder with any
form of Directed Energy Weapon IS Assault and Battery and/or torture/
murder with a LETHAL WEAPON. Despite claims to the contrary by
criminal elements in our own government, there is NO SUCH THING as a
NONLETHAL WEAPON (even those currently in vogue for “Slow Kill”
torture-interrogati on by war criminals worldwide).
In 2001, HR2977, The Space Preservation Act (2001) was introduced into
Congress to BAN ALL Directed Energy Weapons. Its passage has thusfar
been blocked. In 2002, the United Nations Institute for Disarmament
Research (UNIDIR) formally listed a NEW CATEGORY of WEAPON OF MASS
DESTRUCTION (Psychotronic Mind Control and other Electromagnetic
Resonance Weapons) in their 2002 Media Guide to Disarmament. In 2003,
the State of Michigan passed into Law House Bills 4513 and 4514
BANNING the use of ALL FORMS of ELECTROMAGNETIC WEAPONS against Human
Beings in the State of Michigan. In 1999, the European Union
Parliament passed Resolution A4-0005/1999 Section 27 which “Calls for
an International Convention introducing a GLOBAL BAN on all
developments and deployments of weapons which might enable any forms
of manipulation of Human Beings.” (PSYCHOTRONIC WEAPONS).
Ms Millicent Gabrielson’s claim of being assaulted with some form of
DIRECTED ENERGY WEAPON is to be taken very seriously. If the criminal
assailants are found to be law enforcement personnel or government
employees, then the crime is an EVEN MORE SERIOUS OFFENSE with grave
political implications. If the crime is found to be racially or
religiously- motivated torture-assault, then the bias-crime laws also
apply.
I assure you that similar cases are being addressed all over the world
and that Ms Gabrielson’s case is not unique. Please give this case
your closest attention. The INTERNATIONAL HUMAN-RIGHTS COMMUNITY is
deeply interested in the outcome and concerned that justice be served
in all cases of Directed Energy Weapons assault.
Attached to this letter is a copy of my resume and relevant pages from
HR2977 which lists the forms of Electromagnetic Directed Energy
Weaponry currently in use.
Sincerely,
Lynn A. Surgalla
Former Vice-President
United States Psychotronics Association

Georgia Slavery, the Civil War, and Reconstructionstate, United States
History » Slavery, the Civil War, and Reconstruction
Store on Whitehall Street, Atlanta, Ga., selling furnishings and slaves, 1864.[Credits : Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. (LC-B8171-3608 LC)]By the mid-19th century a vast majority of white Georgians, like most Southerners, had come to view slavery as economically indispensable to their society. Georgia, with the greatest number of large plantations of any state in the South, had in many respects come to epitomize plantation culture. When the American Civil War began in 1861, most white southerners (slave owners or not) joined in the defense of the Confederate States of America (Confederacy), which Georgia had helped to create.
Gen. William T. Sherman (leaning on the breach of gun cannon) and staff at Union Fort No. 7, …[Credits : Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. (LC-B8171-3626 DLC)]The war involved Georgians at every level. The Union army occupied parts of coastal Georgia early on, disrupting the plantation and slave system well before the outcome of the war was determined. In 1864 Union troops under Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman invaded Georgia from the north. Sherman and his troops laid siege to Atlanta in late summer and burned much of the city before finally capturing it. Sherman then launched his March to the Sea, a 50-mile- (80-km-) wide swath of total destruction across Georgia from Atlanta to Savannah, some 200 miles (320 km) to the southeast; Savannah, captured in late December, was largely spared.
Sharecroppers picking cotton in Georgia, 1898.[Credits : Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.]In the aftermath of the Civil War, Georgia farmers attempted to restore the state’s agricultural economy, but the relationship between land and labour changed dramatically. After some experimentation with various contractual arrangements for farm labour following emancipation, the system of sharecropping, or paying the owner for use of the land with some portion of the crop, became a generally accepted institution in Georgia and throughout the South. The system encouraged both the landowner and the sharecropper to strive for large harvests and thus often led to the land being mined of its fertility. Almost invariably, land and capital remained in white hands while labour remained largely, though not entirely, black. This entrenched pattern was not broken until the scourge of the boll weevil in the late 1910s and early ’20s ended the long reign of “King Cotton.”
Reconstruction in Georgia was violent and brief. In 1868 the Republican Party came to power in Georgia, with the election of northern-born businessman Rufus Bullock as governor. In turn, the Georgia Democrats and their terrorist arm, the Ku Klux Klan, executed a reign of violence against them, killing hundreds of African Americans in the process. Bullock steadfastly promoted African American equality to no avail, as the Democratic Party, which dismissed Georgia’s Republicans as “scalawags,” regained control in 1871 and set Georgia on a course of white supremacist, low-tax, and low-service government. Former Confederate officers frequently held the state’s highest offices. In the 1890s, in the midst of an agricultural depression, a political alliance of farmers, including African Americans, generally known as Populists and led by Thomas E. Watson, challenged and defeated the conservatives, who had been in control and worked initially for policies to help the economic concerns of small farmers and against the interests of planters and the railroads.
Weaving room in a cotton mill, Augusta, Ga., late 19th century.[Credits : Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.]In the late 19th century some Georgians began to promote an industrial economy, especially the development of textile manufacturing. Atlanta newspaper editor and journalist Henry Grady became a leading voice for turning toward a more industrial, commercial-based economy in Georgia. By the 1880s and ’90s the manufacture of textiles and iron began to expand, and Atlanta grew steadily as a commercial centre based heavily on railroad transportation.

Assesing the Damage
Excerpted from Captive Hearts, Captive Minds: Freedom and Recovery from Cults and Abusive Relationships
By Madeleine Tobias and Janja Lalich
Why are some people so damaged by their cult experience while others walk away seemingly unscathed? There are predisposing personality factors and levels of vulnerability that may enhance a person's continued vulnerability and susceptibility while in the group. All these factors govern the impact of the cult experience on the individual and the potential for subsequent damage. In assessing this impact, three different stages of the cult experience—before, during, and after—need to be examined.
Individual Differences Affecting Recovery
Each person's experience with a cult is different. Some may dabble with a meditation technique but never get drawn into taking "advanced courses" or moving to the ashram. Others may quickly give up all they have, including college, career, possessions, home, or family, to do missionary work in a foreign country or move into cult lodgings.
After a cult involvement, some people carry on with their live sseemingly untouched; more typically, others may encounter a variety of emotional problems and troubling psychological difficulties ranging from inability to sleep, restlessness, and lack of direction to panic attacks, memory loss, and depression. To varying degrees they may feel guilty, ashamed, enraged, lost, confused, betrayed, paranoid, and in a sort of fog.
Before Involvement
Vulnerability factors before involvement include a person's age, prior history of emotional problems, and certain personality characteristics.
During Involvement
Length of time spent in the group
There is quite a difference in the impact a cult will have on a person if she or he is a member for only a few weeks, as compared to months or years. A related factor is the amount of exposure to the indoctrination process and the various levels of control that exist in the group.
Intensity and severity of the thought-reform program
The intensity and severity of cults' efforts at conversion and control vary in different groups and in the same group at different times. Members who are in a peripheral, "associate" status may have very different experiences from those who are full-time, inner-core members.
Specific methods will also vary in their effect. An intense training workshop over a week or weekend that includes sleep deprivation, hypnosis, and self-exposure coupled with a high degree of supervision and lack of privacy is likely to produce faster changes in a participant than a group process using more subtle and long-term methods of change.
Poor or inadequate medical treatments
A former cult member's physical condition and attitude toward physical health may greatly impact postcult adjustments.
Loss of outside support
The availability of a network of family and friends and the amount of outside support certainly will bear on a person's reintegration after a cult involvement.
Skewed or nonexistent contact with family and former friends
tends to increase members' isolation and susceptibility to the cult's worldview. The reestablishment of those contacts is important to help offset the loss and loneliness the person will quite naturally feel.
After involvement
Various factors can hasten healing and lessen postcult difficulties at this stage. Many are related to the psycho-educational process. Former cult members often spend years after leaving a cult in relative isolation, not talking about or dealing with their cult experiences. Shame and silence may increase the harm done by the group and can prevent healing.
Understanding the dynamics of cult conversion is essential to healing and making a solid transition to an integrated postcult life.
* Engage in a professionally led exit counselling session
* Educate yourself about cults and thought-reform techniques
* Involve family members and old and new friends in reviewing and evaluating your cult experience
* See a mental health professional or a pastoral counselor, preferably someone who is familiar with or is willing to be educated about cults and common postcult problems
* Attend a support group for former cult members
The following sets of questions have proven helpful to former cult members trying to make sense of their experience.
Reviewing your recruitment
1. What was going on in your life at the time you joined the group or met the person who became your abusive partner?
2. How and where were you approached?
3. What was your initial reaction to or feeling about the leader or group?
4. What first interested you in the group or leader?
5. How were you misled during recruitment?
6. What did the group or leader promise you? Did you ever get it?
7. What didn't they tell you that might have influenced you not to join had you known?
8. Why did the group or leader want you?
Understanding the psychological manipulation used in your Group
1. Which controlling techniques were used by your group or leader: chanting, meditation, sleep deprivation, isolation, drugs, hypnosis, criticism, fear. List each technique and how it served the group's purpose.
2. What was the most effective? the least effective?
3. What technique are you still using that is hard to give up? Are you able to see any effects on you when you practice these?
4. What are the group's beliefs and values? How did they come to be your beliefs and values?
Examining your doubts
1. What are your doubts about the group or leader now?
2. Do you still believe the group or leader has all or some of the answers?
3. Are you still afraid to encounter your leader or group members on the street?
4. Do you ever think of going back? What is going on in your mind when this happens?
5. Do you believe your group or leader has any supernatural or spiritual power to harm you in any way?
6. Do you believe you are cursed by God for having left the group?

Length of time spent in the group
There is quite a difference in the impact a cult will have on a person if she or he is a member for only a few weeks, as compared to months or years. A related factor is the amount of exposure to the indoctrination process and the various levels of control that exist in the group.
Intensity and severity of the thought-reform program
The intensity and severity of cults' efforts at conversion and control vary in different groups and in the same group at different times. Members who are in a peripheral, "associate" status may have very different experiences from those who are full-time, inner-core members.
Specific methods will also vary in their effect. An intense training workshop over a week or weekend that includes sleep deprivation, hypnosis, and self-exposure coupled with a high degree of supervision and lack of privacy is likely to produce faster changes in a participant than a group process using more subtle and long-term methods of change.
Poor or inadequate medical treatments
A former cult member's physical condition and attitude toward physical health may greatly impact postcult adjustments.
Loss of outside support
The availability of a network of family and friends and the amount of outside support certainly will bear on a person's reintegration after a cult involvement.
Skewed or nonexistent contact with family and former friends
tends to increase members' isolation and susceptibility to the cult's worldview. The reestablishment of those contacts is important to help offset the loss and loneliness the person will quite naturally feel.
After involvement
Various factors can hasten healing and lessen postcult difficulties at this stage. Many are related to the psycho-educational process. Former cult members often spend years after leaving a cult in relative isolation, not talking about or dealing with their cult experiences. Shame and silence may increase the harm done by the group and can prevent healing.
Understanding the dynamics of cult conversion is essential to healing and making a solid transition to an integrated postcult life.
* Engage in a professionally led exit counselling session
* Educate yourself about cults and thought-reform techniques
* Involve family members and old and new friends in reviewing and evaluating your cult experience
* See a mental health professional or a pastoral counselor, preferably someone who is familiar with or is willing to be educated about cults and common postcult problems
* Attend a support group for former cult members
The following sets of questions have proven helpful to former cult members trying to make sense of their experience.
Reviewing your recruitment
1. What was going on in your life at the time you joined the group or met the person who became your abusive partner?
2. How and where were you approached?
3. What was your initial reaction to or feeling about the leader or group?
4. What first interested you in the group or leader?
5. How were you misled during recruitment?
6. What did the group or leader promise you? Did you ever get it?
7. What didn't they tell you that might have influenced you not to join had you known?
8. Why did the group or leader want you?
Understanding the psychological manipulation used in your Group
1. Which controlling techniques were used by your group or leader: chanting, meditation, sleep deprivation, isolation, drugs, hypnosis, criticism, fear. List each technique and how it served the group's purpose.
2. What was the most effective? the least effective?
3. What technique are you still using that is hard to give up? Are you able to see any effects on you when you practice these?
4. What are the group's beliefs and values? How did they come to be your beliefs and values?
Examining your doubts
1. What are your doubts about the group or leader now?
2. Do you still believe the group or leader has all or some of the answers?
3. Are you still afraid to encounter your leader or group members on the street?
4. Do you ever think of going back? What is going on in your mind when this happens?
5. Do you believe your group or leader has any supernatural or spiritual power to harm you in any way?
6. Do you believe you are cursed by God for having left the group?

Did the U.S. Government Actually Create Programmed Assassins?

Call Waiting
One of my favorite movies is the 1970's spy thriller Telefon. In this film,
the KGB has hypnotized Russian agents to carry out assassinations and acts
of terrorism, prior to committing suicide on completion of their programmed
mission. All of this takes place without the programmed subjects having any
knowledge that they are mind-controlled. These individuals have been
programmed to react when the lines of a Robert Frost poem are recited to
them over the telephone. Placed all over America as "sleepers," these
robot-assassins live out their lives believing they are ordinary Americans,
until the fateful moment when the telephone rings and a voice begins to
recite, "The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep
and miles to go before I sleep. Remember, comrade, miles to go before you
sleep".
Pure Hollywood fantasy about a paranoid conspiracy theory, right?
Yes. No. Maybe.
I admit that I am split on whether or not I really believe in such a thing
as a mind controlled, programmed assassin. A part of me refuses to accept
that this concept is anything more than an irrational fear and a good, but
slightly paranoid, Cold War-type plot for a movie like Telefon.
Then there is another part of me that looks at the information about Project
MKULTRA pried out of the CIA via the Freedom of Information Act and I
somehow can't quite bring myself to dismiss the idea as just mere concept.
We now have substantiated proof that the CIA was working on projects to
control human behavior. And given the history of the agency as revealed in
once classified documents, it is safe to say that the CIA would have had a
great interest in creating the perfect agent: one who didn't know he/she was
an agent. One who was mind-controlled. (In The Control of Candy Jones,
author Donald Bain tells of Candy Jones, a leading New York fashion model
whose story is perhaps one of the best documented cases of successful
mind-control by the CIA via drugs, hypnosis and intensive programming; Ms.
Jones underwent hypnotic regression therapy after exhibiting disturbing
personality shifts and eventually what had happened to her emerged. The
story that unfolded told how Ms. Jones had been programmed by hypnosis to
act as a spy and courier for the CIA in the Far East, all the while in a
deep hypnotic trance. Once the CIA was through with her, she returned to her
former life with absolutely no memory of what had happened to her).
Such a scenario would be plausible denial at it's finest, producing the
ultimate patsy. Consider the following extract from the "Real Story Series"
booklet entitled "Who Killed Robert Kennedy?" by Philip Melanson:
"Since World War II, the US military and the CIA have conducted extensive
research into mind control and its relation to national security...Fearing
that the Russians might produce a "sleeper killer" as a weapon against the
West, the CIA began to pursue research on their own programmed assassin. An
agency memo in January 1954 discussed a "hypothetical problem": "Can an
individual...be made to perform an act of attempted assassination
involuntarily?" Can someone be turned into a "trigger mechanism" that can be
"induced to perform the act of attempted assassination at a later date"? The
target of the attempted assassination was to be "a prominent politician [of
the foreign country] or if necessary, an American official."
Melanson writes further that it would be much easier to create a "patsy"
than to program an assassin and also wrote that hypnosis expert Milton
Kline, a CIA consultant, estimated that he could create such a patsy in as
little as three months.
During their investigation and research into the history of LSD, authors
Martin A. Lee and Bruce Shlain were allowed access to a special reading room
at the Hyatt Regency in Rosslyn, Virginia. Documents pertinent to the CIA's
MKULTRA program were being opened to the public as the result of a Senate
subcommittee led by chairman Senator Ted Kennedy. In the prologue to their
book, Acid Dreams, they write:
In the course of our inquiry we uncovered CIA documents describing
experiments in sensory deprivation, sleep teaching, ESP, subliminal
projection, electronic brain stimulation, and many other methods that might
have applications for behavior modification. One project was designed to
turn people into programmed assassins who would kill on automatic command.
(1)
Most conspiracy researchers are familiar with the CIA's mind control program
MKULTRA. It was led by creepy scientist-spook Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, who
testified before the same subcommittee only after receiving a grant of
immunity from criminal prosecution. MKULTRA was launched in April of 1953 as
a continuation of mind-control experiments that originated in the Nazi death
camps of such notoriety as Dachau. (MKULTRA, ARTICHOKE and other CIA
projects became possible because of Project Paperclip, a US Army scheme that
smuggled Nazi scientists, intelligence personnel and other war criminals to
the United States from Europe at the end of WWII.)
The start of the Cold War and the Korean War in particular gave the go ahead
to mind control research with the advent of "brain washing" as a house-hold
name. Supposedly a development of the Communist-Chinese, the term was
actually coined by a magazine writer later discovered to be on the CIA
payroll as an "agent of influence". On the premise of a "brainwashing gap,"
the CIA got permission for research into countering alleged communist mind
control efforts and set out to develop their own to aid in the espionage
battle.
MKULTRA Calling: A History of Horrors
The abuses of MKULTRA are just beginning to see the light of day.
On November 19, 1953, an Army scientist and germ warfare specialist named
Frank Olson, who was working on an MKULTRA project, was without his
knowledge or consent, slipped a dose of LSD in a drink at a party attended
by other CIA personnel. For weeks afterward he remained in what many
witnesses described as a state of depression and paranoia. He confided to
one CIA doctor that the agency was putting something in his coffee to keep
him awake at night, that people were plotting against him and that he heard
voices commanding him to throw his wallet away, which he did, even though it
contained several uncashed pay checks. On the last night of his life, he
checked into a room at the Statler Hilton hotel in New York City along with
a CIA agent assigned to watch him. Olson allegedly jumped through a closed
hotel window and fell ten stories to his death. It was Dr. Gottlieb who had
slipped him the drug at the party. An elaborate cover-up eliminated any
clues as to the actual circumstances of his death. The full truth of what
happened would not come to light for twenty years. (On a recent episode of
the television show Unsolved Mysteries, serious doubts were raised as to
whether Olson actually jumped through the window unaided.) Olson's widow was
eventually awarded a large cash settlement in connection with his death at
the hands of the CIA.
Dr. Ewen Cameron, a prestigious psychiatrist who directed the Allain
Memorial Institute in Montreal, Canada also worked for the CIA during
MKULTRA. With financial backing from the CIA, Dr. Cameron developed a
bizarre method for reprogramming people. This involved "sleep therapy" where
a person was knocked out with sedatives for months at a time. Next, the
phase involved "depatterning" in which the person was given massive electro
shocks and frequent doses of LSD in an attempt to wipe out past behavior
patterns. Then, the doctor would attempt to recondition the person's mind
using a technique called "psychic driving," in which the person was again
heavily sedated, locked in a "sleep room" where tape recordings of various
messages were played over a speaker under the person's pillow as many as a
quarter of a million times. (2) (Nine of Dr. Cameron's former "patients"
have filed lawsuits against the American government in a claim that they are
still suffering from trauma as a result of these experiments.)
Another death attributed to the program was that of Harold Blauer in 1953.
Blauer was part of a study conducted by a group of doctors working under an
army contract at the New York State Psychiatric Institute. He died a few
hours after an injection of MDA, a psychedelic, amphetamine-derived drug,
similar to the 90's "rave" drug, Ecstasy. The drug had been supplied by the
Army Chemical Corps in co-operation with MKULTRA. One army researcher later
admitted that "we didn't know if it was dog piss or what it was we were
giving to him." (3)
And in perhaps one of the most bizarre and horrifying abuses, Dr. Paul Hoch,
while performing experiments for the army as a CIA consultant, gave intra
spinal injections of LSD and mescaline to psychiatric patients, later
lobotomizing them. In one experiment, after a psychedelic had been
administered, Dr. Hoch gave a subject a local anesthetic and asked him to
describe his visual experiences as surgeons removed pieces of his brain. (4)
(The list of other abuses occurring during MKULTRA is a lengthy one that
could fill a large volume.)
The CIA appears to have chosen to experiment primarily on certain groups:
prisoners, mental patients, "foreigners," sexual deviants, and minorities.
Much of the experimentation occurred at places like the Addiction Research
Center, a federal hospital for drug addicts in Lexington, Kentucky. CIA
documents describe experiments conducted in which persons were given LSD for
over seventy-five consecutive days in double, triple and quadruple doses.
The majority of these subjects were black males.
Abuses of inmates at Vacaville Medical Facility in California, a prison
psychiatric hospital, were also conducted under the auspices of MKULTRA.
Consider the following excerpts from a series of articles that ran in the
Napa Sentinel, entitled, "Mind Control" by Harry V. Martin and David Caul:
People have found it difficult to accept that an individual can be
hypnotized to perform an act which is against his moral principles. Some
experiments have been conducted by the U.S. Army which show that this
popular perception is untrue. The chairman of the Department of Psychology
at Colgate University, Dr. Estabrooks, has stated, "I can hypnotize a man
without his knowledge or consent into committing treason against the United
States." Estabrooks was one of the nation's most authoritative sources in
the hypnotic field...Dr. Estabrooks actually conducted experiments on U.S.
soldiers to prove his point. Soldiers of low rank and little formal
education were placed under hypnotism and their memories tested...One of the
experiments involved placing a normal, stable army private in a deep trance.
Watkins was trying to see if he could get the private to attack a superior
officer, a cardinal sin in the military. While the private was in a deep
trance, Watkins told him that the officer sitting across from him was an
enemy soldier who was going to attempt to kill him. In the private's mind,
it was a kill or be killed situation. The private immediately jumped up and
grabbed the officer by the throat. The experiment was repeated several
times, and in one case the man who was hypnotized and the man who was
attacked were very close friends. The results were always the same. In one
experiment, the hypnotized subject pulled out a knife and nearly stabbed
another person...Dr. James V. McConnel, head of the Department of Mental
Health Research at the University of Michigan, said, "The day has come when
we can combine sensory deprivation with the use of drugs, hypnosis, and the
astute manipulation of reward and punishment to gain almost absolute control
over an individual's behavior...A U.S. Navy psychologist, who claims that
the Office of Naval Intelligence had taken convicted murderers from military
prisons, used behavior modification techniques on them, and then relocated
them in American embassies throughout the world. Just prior to that time,
the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee had censured the CIA for its global
political assassination plots, including plots against Fidel Castro. The
Navy psychologist was Lt. Commander Thomas Narut of the U.S. Regional
Medical Center in Naples, Italy. The information was divulged at an Oslo
NATO conference of 120 psychologists from the eleven nation alliance...Dr.
Narut, in a question and answer session with reporters from many nations,
revealed how the Navy was secretly programming large numbers of assassins.
He said that the men he had worked with for the Navy were being prepared for
commando-type operations, as well as covert operations in U.S. embassies
worldwide. He described the men who went through his program as "hit men and
assassins" who could kill on command. Careful screening of the subjects was
accomplished by Navy psychologists through the military records, and those
who actually received assignments where their training could be utilized,
were drawn mainly from submarine crews, the paratroops, and many were
convicted murderers serving military prison sentences...After his NATO
lecture, Dr. Narut disappeared. He could not be located. Within a week of so
after the lecture, the Pentagon issued an emphatic denial that the U.S. Navy
had "engaged in psychological training or other types of training of
personnel as assassins." They disavowed the programming centers in San Diego
and Naples and stated they were unable to locate Narut, but did provide
confirmation that he was a staff member of the U.S. Regional Medical Center
in Naples.
As we shall see, Project MKULTRA may have culminated in such horrors as the
People's Temple tragedy in Jonestown, Guyana, the Kennedy assassinations and
more.
A Directory of Lone Nuts
To my knowledge, we have no actual proof that the CIA was successful in
actually creating a programmed assassin.
Or do we?
In the late 60's and early 70's, political assassinations changed the course
of three presidential elections. In each of these cases, responsibility was
placed on a "lone nut," conveniently relieving any need for public inquiries
into possible conspiracies. Research into assassinations and attempted
assassinations, various murders and mayhem, and covert activities of
America's intelligence community aimed at American citizens contain our best
evidence of the possible success of mind-control experiments that may have
produced programmed assassins.
Also present in some of these cases was the CIA technique of using "doubles"
and even theatrical effects to deliberately create confusion, promote
propaganda and negative sentiments against "subversive groups" or to bolster
the portrait of the "lone nut" in the minds of Americans. It is possible
that these "doubles" were also programmed and mind controlled. (During the
Vietnam era, the CIA's Operation CHAOS was routinely and illegally
conducting domestic spy operations on a large number of U.S. citizens,
attempting to prove a link between the anti-war movement and world
communism. To this day, the files that the CIA maintains on private citizens
are one of the Agency's most closely guarded secrets).
The cases of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Ronald Reagan, John
Lennon, Governor George Wallace, the People's Temple "massacre" at Jones
Town, the Symbionese Liberation Army, the so-called "Zebra" murders, and
even the Charles Manson Family are rife with tantalizing clues that seem to
suggest that mind-control has been achieved by the CIA. Consider the
following, itemized list in America's Directory of "Lone Nut" Assassins:
Sirhan Sirhan
Sirhan Sirhan was/is portrayed as the "lone nut" who assassinated Robert F.
Kennedy at the Ambassodor Hotel in Los Angeles on June 5, 1968. There is
strong evidence of the presence of the CIA in this assassination. The LAPD
(which appears to have been under the direction of the CIA at the time of
the investigation) figures prominently in the cover-up which took place
after the shooting.
The fatal wound that killed Robert Kennedy came from a gunshot behind his
right ear. Sirhan, according to multiple witnesses, fired his gun from
Kennedy's front and was never behind the Senator at any time. Once the
shooting started, Sirhan was quickly hauled to the floor by several people
who had been assigned to guard Kennedy that day. (It has been alleged that
Sirhan, like Lee Harvey Oswald, was simply a mind-controlled patsy and that
the real killer was Thane Eugene Cesar, an armed security guard and a
Kennedy-hater with right-wing ties. Cesar was in the perfect position to
fire the fatal shot as he was behind and just slightly to the right of
Senator Kennedy and had been guiding him by the arm through the crowd at the
moment of the shooting).
In what is perhaps one of the best cases for proof of successful
mind-control, the evidence strongly suggests that Sirhan may have been
programmed (by the CIA) with hypnosis and drugs. (Sirhan claims to have no
memory of the killing.)
Master hypnotist William J. Bryan, Jr., who allegedly worked for the CIA,
bragged about hypnotizing Sirhan prior to the assassination, as well as the
serial killer known as the "Boston Strangler," Albert DeSalvo. Bryan, by his
own account, had been the "chief of all medical survival training for the
United States Air Force, which meant the brainwashing section." He also
claimed to have been a consultant for the film "The Manchurian Candidate,"
which was based on Richard Condon's famous novel about a man who is captured
by Communists and hypnotically programmed to return to the United States to
kill a political leader. Condon's novel was itself based upon the CIA's
ARTICHOKE program (the successor to Project BLUEBIRD), which sought to find
a way to create a programmed, amnesiac assassin. Project ARTICHOKE
eventually became Project MKULTRA.
In the July-August, 1997 issue of Probe, (Vol. 4 No. 5), "The Robert F.
Kennedy Assassination: Sirhan Now Says: "I Am Innocent," author/researcher
Lisa Pease elaborates further:
How far did these experiments progress? There is little in the way of a
written record. In the wake of the exposes during the Watergate period,
exiting CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all files relating to the CIA's
various mind control experiments destroyed. A few years later, a small
number of documents was found and reviewed by the Senate. In these few
documents may lay some hints as to what happened to Robert Kennedy. One
surviving document in particular bears an uncanny resemblance to the
circumstances surrounding the assassination. The 1954 CIA document describes
efforts to find a way to induce an individual "to perform an act,
involuntarily, of attempted assassination against a prominent [deleted in
original] politician or if necessary, against an American official." (And
the original document contained) the suggestion that the subject be
"surreptitiously drugged through the medium of an alcoholic cocktail at a
social party." Sirhan had been drinking Tom Collinses that night. His last
memory was of pouring coffee for a pretty girl, described by a waiter there
as wearing a polka dot dress. Had Sirhan been surreptitiously drugged? The
use of drugs, or hypnosis, or likely a combination of both, would go a long
way towards explaining Sirhan's strange behavior as recorded by the
witnesses that night. Several witnesses noticed something odd in Sirhan's
behavior before and during the shooting. Earlier that evening, one of the
Western Union teletype operators, Mary Groh, noticed Sirhan staring at the
teletype machine as though transfixed. "[H]e came over to my machine and
started staring at it. Just staring. I'll never forget his eyes. I asked
what he wanted. He didn't answer. He just kept staring." One of the men
attempting to overpower Sirhan during the shooting, George Plimpton, was
amazed that Sirhan's eyes were "dark brown and enormously peaceful." Another
man in the same position, Joseph Lahaiv, described Sirhan as looking "very
tranquil" during the struggle. Two waiters, Vincent Di Pierro and Martin
Patruski, reported that Sirhan appeared to be smiling. A cook named Yosio
Niwa said, "I'll never forget that guy's face...I was so upset...he was
smiling...." When Sirhan was taken from the scene, a patrolman shined a
flashlight in Sirhan's eyes to check for indications of drugs or alcohol. On
the stand at Sirhan's trial, the patrolman "couldn't recall" what he
determined. But in an earlier statement he had said that Sirhan's pupils
"didn't react" to the light and that they "were real wide". The official
records from Sirhan's blood test were lost by the Los Angeles Police
Department...If the bulk of the witnesses, who gave matching stories, are
correct, then Sirhan couldn't have fired the shots, and was in a
disassociative state during the shooting. If he was under hypnosis and given
amnesia-producing drugs such as the CIA was experimenting with for well over
fourteen years by that time, then Sirhan's claims of memory loss and
innocence, while strange, may well be true...for seekers of truth, the full
record presents the very likely and disturbing possibility that Sirhan was a
mind-controlled patsy performing an act of "attempted assassination" to
distract from the real killers.
In his book, "The Search for the Manchurian Candidate," John D. Marks
details the CIA's efforts to hypnotically program people and adds the
following:
The veteran admits that none of the arguments he uses against a conditioned
assassin would apply to a programmed "patsy" whom a hypnotist could walk
through a series of seemingly unrelated events, a visit to a store, a
conversation with a mailman, picking a fight at a political rally. The
subject would remember everything that happened to him and be amnesic only
for the fact the hypnotist ordered him to do these things. There would be no
gaping inconsistency in his life of the sort that can ruin an attempt by a
hypnotist to create a second personality. The purpose of this exercise is to
leave a circumstantial trail that will make the authorities think the patsy
committed a particular crime. The weakness might well be that the amnesia
would not hold up under police interrogation, but that would not matter if
the police did not believe his preposterous story about being hypnotized or
if he were shot resisting arrest. Hypnosis expert Milton Kline says he could
create a patsy in three months; an assassin would take him six.
Phrases from Sirhan's private notebooks show the characteristics of
"automatic writing" of a hypnotically programmed subject and he even makes
references to mind control, money, drugs, the Occult and even the name "Di
Salvo."
Witness Sandra Serrano, who was harassed/intimidated/ridiculed by LAPD
polygraph operator Sgt. Enrique Hernandez as he tried to get her to change
her story (Hernandez had ties to the CIA and may have been a professional
CIA interrogator) reported that just prior to the shooting, she saw Sirhan
with a "Latin" man and a girl in a polka-dot dress ascending an emergency
stairway in the hotel where RFK was shot. Other witnesses saw Sirhan near a
coffee machine inside the hotel with a girl in a polka-dot dress who was
whispering to him. (Sirhan has said that the last thing he remembers prior
to the shooting of RFK was having a cup of coffee with a girl. The next
thing he remembered afterward was being restrained after firing his weapon
at Kennedy. This suggests the possibility of additional drugs being placed
in his coffee, and further hypnotic suggestions being given to him just
prior to the shooting)
Immediately after the shooting, witnesses saw this same woman and a male
companion (the "Latin") leaving the hotel and gleefully exclaiming, "We shot
him! We shot Senator Kennedy!" Prosecution psychiatrist Seymour Pollack, who
was convinced that Sirhan had been programmed by someone, asked Sirhan while
under hypnosis if anyone was with him when he shot Kennedy, to which he
replied in a hushed tone, "the girl, the girl."
Lee Harvey Oswald
The alleged "lone nut" assassin of JFK had numerous ties to the intelligence
community and served with the Marine Corps at Atsugi, Japan ( originating
base of the U2 spy plane flights) during which time LSD and other drugs were
known to have been field tested there by the CIA.
There is the implication to be considered by his known presence at Atsugi
that Oswald may have been the first "Manchurian Candidate" patsy from which
many others were later fashioned. The use of numerous "doubles" in the
Oswald saga is well documented by other researchers, as well as many
instances of what may indicate the use of programmed collaborators. (See
"Kerry Thornley" below)
James Earl Ray
The alleged assassin of Martin Luther King may have also been a carefully
chosen and groomed patsy. This case provides us with evidence of the FBI and
CIA's involvement in the assassination of what they termed as a "black
political dissident". (J. Edgar Hoover's hatred of King is well documented,
as well as his agency's attempts to discredit King, whom the FBI felt had
communist ties. It should be noted here that the FBI's infamous COINTELPRO
[Counterintelligence Program] was in full force during the 1960's and early
1970's and is possibly still in effect to this day, but under a different
name). (fn1)
Suspiciously, Ray (who by all accounts was not a very sophisticated
criminal) was somehow able to obtain enough money to secure a phony
passport, travel by plane all over Europe and elude the authorities who were
looking for him, acting more like a seasoned spook then the small time
burglar and thief he actually was.
While there appears to be no overt evidence of mind control where Ray is
concerned, the case remains of interest for the use of the Ray doubles "Paul
Bridgemen," "Eric Starvo Galt," and "Ramon George Sneyd." Ray employed all
three of these names. It came to light later that these aliases were
identical to the names of three men who lived near each other in Toronto (a
city where Ray had never been). All of these men were about the same height
and build and all bore facial scars that were similar to Ray's.
In the tradition of intelligence "handlers," there is the mysterious
"Raoul," whom Ray claims was his contact during the days leading up to the
assassination.
Though a rifle found at the scene allegedly had a single fingerprint that
was attributed to Ray, no prints matching his were found in the room he
rented across from King's motel and from which Ray supposedly fired at King.
(It took the FBI's fingerprint section two weeks to identify this
fingerprint, even though they were comparing the print against a master set
of prints that contained only 720 samples. This would indicate that the
print alleged to have been found on the rifle was of a very poor and dubious
quality).
Recent tests (pushed for by Martin Luther King's son) have also provided
strong indications that the recovered rifle was not the weapon that was used
to assassinate King. Tennessee Judge Joe Brown ruled that 12 out of the 18
test bullets that were fired through the rifle had markings different from
the markings on the bullet that killed Dr. King. These test results alone
seem to support the contention that Ray was groomed for his role as a patsy.
Charles Manson
Manson and his followers committed the Tate-LaBianca and other killings
during the late 1960's. Manson used mind-control techniques such as
hypnotism, high doses of LSD, and programming to turn peaceful flower
children into killers, but one has to wonder just exactly where did Manson
learn to program people?
Manson was part of the "hippie element" at the time of the CIA's use of
drugs and the MKULTRA experiments in an attempt to discredit the left wing
anti-war movement in America.
Manson's supply of LSD may have come directly from the CIA. A new type of
LSD known as "Orange Sunshine" was being used by the Manson Family
immediately prior to the Tate-LaBianca murders according to Family member
Charles "Tex" Watson, who wrote in his prison memoir that it was the use of
the Orange Sunshine LSD that finally convinced him that Manson's Helter
Skelter, apocalyptic vision was real. (13) And this special LSD may have
been supplied by the CIA. Orange Sunshine was manufactured and distributed
by a group known as "The Brotherhood of Eternal Love" who operated out of a
beach resort near Los Angeles. The Brotherhood had among it's drug
manufacturers and dealers, one Ronald Stark, a person with known connections
to the CIA. It is believed that Stark was responsible for the manufacture of
up to 50 million hits of LSD). (14)
It is also interesting to note that Manson, an avowed racist and having a
known affinity for right-wing beliefs, was somehow conveniently and
completely linked with the left-wing by the news media. It can be argued
that the Manson murders "nailed the coffin shut" in the minds of many
Americans as far as the image of the Hippies as a peace-loving, political
movement was concerned, and by all indications, this seems to have been just
one very weird part of a successful CIA operation to discredit the anti-war
movement in America.
Manson's personal obsession was with "Helter Skelter" and his belief was
that this event would ignite a black-white race war in America; the
Tate-LaBianca murders and the murder of musician Gary Hinman were definitely
staged with false clues that the killers (or perhaps someone else) hoped
would be blamed on elements of the "black militant" movement.
Manson has said in interviews that he based some of his "philosophy" on the
science fiction novel Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Hienlien. In a
scenario perhaps reminiscent of Mark David Chapman's and John Hinckley's
infatuation with Catcher in the Rye, could Stranger in a Strange Land
somehow have been Manson's program-trigger mechanism? Was the concept of
Helter Skelter part of Manson's program?
And consider that if a hippie-ex-convict-nobody like Charles Manson could
program people to kill, then why not the U.S. Government?
In the book, Helter Skelter, Manson prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi discusses
Manson's programming techniques in depth, likening much of Manson's
programming abilities to the same thing that takes place with recruits in
the U.S. military. But Bugliosi also hints at "some missing element, "some
aspect of Manson's personality that we do not understand" that enabled him
to program his followers to kill.
Manson was in prison during the time that the CIA was known to be using
inmates at Vacaville prison in the MKULTRA experiments, a fact that leaves
one to speculate that perhaps Manson was some sort of mind-controlled guru
cum agent provocateur, set loose against the "subversive" left-wing elements
by the CIA to discredit them.
Since his incarceration for the Tate-LaBianca murders, Manson has again
served part of his time at Vacaville.
Arthur Bremer
The attempted assassin of Governor George Wallace of Alabama was described
in the media as a deranged loner, but he wasn't alone at all if you count
the involvement of the CIA and the Nixon/Watergate "plumbers" who figure
prominently in this case. (It has been suggested that George Wallace's
political campaign could potentially have taken too many votes away from
rival presidential candidate Richard Nixon if Wallace was allowed to stay in
the presidential race. He was conveniently eliminated by Arthur Bremer).
On Monday, May 15, 1972, Bremer attempted to assassinate George Wallace at a
campaign rally in Laurel, Maryland. According to researchers, within one
hour after the Wallace shooting, Nixon aide Charles Colson, having invented
a ruse to place blame for the shooting on radical extremists of the left
wing, ordered Watergate "plumber" E. Howard Hunt to break into Bremer's
apartment and plant Black Panther and Angela Davis literature there.
(Bremer, however, had political convictions leaning towards the extreme
right. None other than George Wallace himself stated that he wondered how
members of Nixon's staff had found Bremer's apartment so quickly after the
shooting.)
But this "loner" actually had quite a few friends. One of these friends,
Dennis Cassini, turned up mysteriously dead in the trunk of his own car
before he could be questioned. (5) The FBI didn't even bother to investigate
his death. According to The Milwaukee Journal: "The former Wisconsin College
Republican State Chairman said (that) Donald Segretti, confessed political
spy and Republican saboteur in the 1972 presidential campaign, urged him to
recruit persons in Wisconsin to do dirty tricks to embarrass the Democrats."
Arthur Bremer was from Milwaukee. Records show that Bremer traveled
extensively while stalking Wallace on his campaign trail, staying in
expensive hotels, running up debts totaling $5,000 dollars, which he paid.
Quite unusual for a busboy whose total earnings were under $2,000 dollars
for the entire year. Bremer was also identified prior to the assassination
as the man seen accompanying Watergate-operative Anthony Ulasewicz in
Michigan. (The personality revealed by Bremer's diary was used as a source
for the character of Travis Bickle in the original screenplay of the movie
Taxi Driver, which would, curiously, later drive John Hinckley in his own
presidential assassination attempt).
Bremer was sentenced to 63 years in prison and has never given any
explanation as to why he shot Wallace.
Mark David Chapman
Yet another "lone nut" assassin who killed "leftist" John Lennon in New York
City on December 8, 1980.
Chapman had possible ties to the CIA as a former World Vision Employee.
(World Vision Missionaries is an "international evangelical order" that has
performed espionage work for CIA). Allegedly, while working for World
Vision, Chapman was trained in terrorist infested, war-torn Beruit as a
"security guard".
Less than four months before John Hinckley Jr. attempted to gun down Reagan,
Chapman shot and killed John Lennon in what may have been a practice run for
Hinckley's later assassination attempt on Reagan. It is known (via the
Freedom of Information Act) that the FBI kept an extensive file on Lennon
and considered him to be a "dangerous left-wing subversive."
The FBI was able to keep Lennon from obtaining permanent residency in the
United States, watched his apartment, followed him and even tapped his
telephone. According to British Journalist Fenton Bresler, who wrote the
book, "Who Killed John Lennon?," the FBI viewed Lennon (who was a close
confidant to ultra-radicals Jerry Rubin and Abbie Hoffman) as a dangerous
radical who exerted a strong influence on the public through his music and
political activities.
After shooting Lennon, Chapman sat down and calmly began reading from The
Catcher in the Rye, a novel by J.D. Salinger. (Interestingly, J.D. Salinger,
author of "Catcher" served in the Counter Intelligence Corps during WWII
with Henry Kissinger. Others have theorized that this book served as some
sort of post-hypnotic suggestion or program "trigger"). (6) Chapman himself
claims that he killed Lennon to promote the reading of "Catcher in the Rye,"
yet according to those who knew him, Chapman never exhibited strong feeling
about the book until just prior to the shooting.
Chapman has been quoted as saying this about the shooting:
"He (Lennon) walked past me and then I heard in my head, 'Do it, do it, do
it, like that,' I don't remember aiming. I must have done, but I don't
remember drawing a bead or whatever you call it...I had no emotion, no
anger....dead silence in the brain."
Fenton Bresler believed that Chapman was a brainwashed hit man. He wrote
that, "Mark David Chapman is in many ways as much the victim of those who
wanted to kill John Lennon as Lennon himself."
The police detective (Arthur O'Connor) who interviewed Chapman immediately
following the shooting was convinced, due to his strange demeanor, that
Chapman was under the influence of some sort of hypnotic programming.
(Chapman has officially been portrayed as simply an obsessed Beatles fan who
stalked and killed Lennon for fifteen minutes of fame. A source of mine, who
wishes to remain anonymous, told me about how he once worked in a record
store in Decatur, Georgia where Mark David Chapman often shopped for
records. He claims Chapman was not a Beatles fan at all, but rather that he
seemed obsessed with the music of Todd Rundgren). O'Conner stated that "It
is definitely illogical to say the Mark committed the murder to make himself
famous. He did not want to talk to the press from the very start. It's
possible Mark could have been used by somebody. I saw him the night of the
murder. I studied him intensely. He looked as if he could have been
programmed."
Although Chapman has been portrayed as a loner, he was anything but. He
worked extensively with children as a camp counselor for the YMCA and
appeared to have had a normal social life.
John Hinckley, Jr.
The attempted lone nut assassin of Ronald Reagan, whose death would have
placed CIA-spook-vice-president George Bush into the white house eight years
earlier than when he was eventually elected. (It should also be noted that
the members of the Bush and Hinckley families are old friends, both families
having made big money in the Texas oil boom. In fact, Bush's son, Neil, was
supposed to have had dinner with Scott Hinckley, John Hinckley's brother,
the evening that John went on his shooting rampage. John Hinckley, Sr., a
reputed CIA officer and close friend of George Bush was also an important
World Vision official).
Like Mark David Chapman, John Hinckley, Jr. also had a copy of Catcher in
the Rye in his possession when apprehended. According to official reports,
Hinckley was also heavily "influenced" by the Travis Bickle character from
the Martin Scorcese film Taxi Driver. (In this film, Robert DeNiro plays an
obsessed gunman who plans to assassinate a presidential candidate, a
character that was inspired by Arthur Bremer's personal diary).
Like Arthur Bremer, Hinckley traveled extensively around the U.S., and prior
to his assassination attempt on Reagan, was arrested at the airport in
Nashville, Tennessee with three handguns. Curiously, Hinckley was not placed
under any surveillance after this incident. And in emulation of both Sirhan
Sirhan and Bremer, Hinckley also kept a dairy in which he detailed his plans
for shooting Reagan.
There are reports that a Hinckley "double" named "Richardson" traced
Hinckley's path from Colorado to Connecticut, all the while writing letters
to Jodie Foster, just as the real Hinckley did. This Richardson was arrested
with a weapon at New York's Port Authority bus terminal, claiming he was
going to kill Reagan. Richardson and also had links to World Vision
Ministry. No less a figure than conspiracy queen Mae Brussel allegedly
spotted an apparent Hinckley double prior to the assassination attempt and
reported this to the Secret Service. (The Hinckley double's true name is
Edward Richardson, a person who looked amazingly like Hinckley).
One has to ask the obvious: what are the odds that two "unstable" men could
be obsessed with the same actress from the same film at the same time, while
"behaving" under nearly exact circumstances? That both of these men were
intent on re-creating the Travis Bickle character's assassination scheme
from the movie "Taxi Driver"? What are the chances that two separate
"mentally unstable," lone individuals, with so many odd similarities, would
reach critical mass at the same time and in the same way?
It is known through court records that Hinckley underwent psychiatric
treatment just prior to his attempt on Reagan and that at the time of the
shooting, he was under the influence of psychiatric drugs.
Found not guilty by reason of insanity, he remains confined to a psychiatric
hospital where he has occasionally corresponded with such notables as serial
killer Ted Bundy and Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme of Manson Family fame and the
attempted presidential assassin of Nixon replacement, Gerald Ford. (There
has been speculation that master mindcontroller Manson himself ordered
Lynette Fromme to shoot Ford).
Kerry Thornley
Kerry Thornley has claimed that he and Oswald were both mind-controlled
patsys and involved in the JFK assassination without conscious knowledge.
Thornley served in the Marine Corps with Oswald. He too, was once stationed
at Atsugi, Japan. Thornley has come to believe that he was, against his will
and without his knowledge, part of the conspiracy that killed John Kennedy.
(Thornley once worked at a Mexican restaurant in the Little Five Points
area, my former neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia. I remember him being
pointed out to me once at a party and he was a familiar local figure to
everyone. At that time, Thornley was regarded as just another oddball street
personality who had wacky ideas about the JFK assassination, and no one
really gave any particular credence to what he had to say. This was prior to
the revival of mass interest in the Kennedy assassination that was generated
by the release of the Oliver Stone film, JFK).
Thornley testified before the Warren Commission and at the time he claims he
was satisfied that Oswald was Kennedy's killer. In the book, Conspiracies,
Cover-ups and Crimes, author Jonathan Vankin interviewed Thornley and
reveals, among other things, that Thornley was living/working in New Orleans
at the same time that Oswald was living there and in a neighborhood that was
host to a whole cadre of intelligence agencies. Thornley reportedly met both
Guy Bannister and David Ferrie while in New Orleans, and after moving to
L.A., he met John Roselli, one of the country's most powerful mobsters and
an object of suspicion regarding the Kennedy assassination. (Roselli was
later found chopped into pieces and stuffed into an oil drum which had been
dumped off the Florida coast shortly before he was to testify before the
House Select Committee on Assassinations)
Vankin's book discusses how in 1961, while living in New Orleans, Thornley
was introduced to a man named "Gary Kirstein" in a New Orleans bar called
the Bourbon House. Thornley recalls that Kirstein was "sort of a neanderthal
racist" and was writing a book titled, "Hitler Was a Good Guy". Thornley, in
recalling the most memorable parts of his conversation with Kirstein states
that he (Kirstein) and himself debated theoretically on how to assassinate
President Kennedy, as if they were two writers discussing how it could be
written in a novel. Thornley also says that Kirstein basically predicted
everything that was going to happen in the next twenty years, including the
Manson Family, the war in Vietnam, etc. (Thornley states that at the time he
listened to this conversation, he was bored and disbelieving of Kirstein and
that he had blotted out the memory of this conversation for ten years)
Thornley now believes that Kirstein may have been E. Howard Hunt, CIA spook
extraordinaire and infamous Watergate "plumber". Thornley later wrote an
article entitled, "Did the Plumbers Plug J.F.K., Too?" that appeared in an
Atlanta underground newspaper. In the book Secret and Suppressed, Thornley
wrote an article titled, "Is Paranoia a Form of Awareness?" in which he
writes:
After I wrote Did the Plumbers Plug J.F.K., Too?, I got two unusual phone
calls. First was a male voice imitating the sounds of a speeded-up tape
recorder or a gibberish-talking cartoon character. Ten years earlier a (New
Orleans resident) named Roger Lovin and I used to address one another in the
Bourbon House with identical noises to those I was now hearing on the other
end of the line...This time I simply replied with a word or two of
bewilderment, and the caller hung up. Within seconds, the phone rang again.
Now a male voice-not Roger's-said very clearly, "Kerry, do you know who this
is?" When I answered in the negative, he said, "Good!" and again the caller
hung up. (7)
Thornley said the voice on the telephone brought back "eerie memories" and
sounded similar to the voice of the "Kirstein/Hunt" individual from New
Orleans. (Shades of Telefon?) Also while in Atlanta, Thornley went to the
Atlanta police during a time that an interest in new allegations regarding
the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. were being investigated because
he again "remembered that Kirstein had also talked about killing King".
Twelve days after making statements to the police, Thornley was attacked and
pistol-whipped by two men in ski masks who, strangely, took only his
identification.
Thornley believed that he was programmed for some part in the assassination
of Kennedy and that "Kirstein" was his controller and may have implanted
some sort of device in his brain.
Donald DeFreeze
The "leader" of the Symbionese Liberation Army, who (like Manson) was
imprisoned at Vacaville during the time of the MKULTRA experiments, may have
been a CIA, FBI "agent provocateur". He may also have been mind-controlled.
According to the Jonathan Vankin and John Whalen:
There was something queer about the SLA all along. Its leader, Donald
"General Field Marshall Cinque" DeFreeze-career crook and informer for the
LAPD-emerged from the California penal system's Vacaville Medical Facility
where he'd come under the tutelage of CIA agent Colston Westbrook, a
psychological warfare specialist. Westbrook enlisted DeFreeze into his
"Black Cultural Association." Armed robber DeFreeze obtained early release
from Vacaville by performing "a favor" for prison authorities. (Doing a
"favor" was in reference to submitting to psychiatric experiments). The SLA
went public with the assassination of African-American Oakland school
superintendent Dr. Marcus Foster on Nov. 6, 1973. Just weeks earlier, a
neo-Nazi group issued a flyer predicting Foster's death. "Black men" were
witnessed scurrying from the scene of the crime but the arrested shooters
were whites. Black face makeup was discovered in their apartments. (8)
Regarding the use of makeup and other theatrical props, consider the
following: In a Strange Magazine article, The Makeup Man and the Monster:
John Chambers and the Patterson Bigfoot Suit, author/editor Mark Chorvinsky
mounted an investigation into whether the famous "Wright- Patterson Bigfoot
film, a virtual cornerstone in the investigations and belief of the
existence of Bigfoot, was actually a hoax perpetrated by renowned Hollywood
makeup/effects artist John Chambers. The film was allegedly shot on October
20, 1967 and shows what is purported to be an actual Bigfoot creature as it
walks through the forest in California. The footage has been featured in
numerous television shows and films and is usually the film people think
about when debating the reality of the creature.
During Chorvinsky's investigation, he interviewed many of Hollywood's most
prominent makeup artists. Chorvinsky writes: "I have investigated many
phenomena over the past decade, and some of the cases have been quite
controversial, but rarely has anyone requested anonymity...I'm in the
awkward position of knowing more than I can tell at this time. One aspect of
either (John) Chambers' career or the legends surrounding it is the buzz
about Chambers' involvement in government-sponsored "black box" work. No one
has ever been willing to go on the record concerning this alleged work, but
within the Hollywood makeup community it is generally believed that such
work did occur and that it has added to the secretiveness of Chambers and
his closet associates...Widespread rumors in the makeup community depict
Chambers applying a wig and prosthetics to a cadaver to fake the death of a
foreign ruler, and engaging in a number of "Company"-sponsored
"non-theatrical" projects. These black box rumors are all reminiscent of
Mission Impossible plots, many of which relied on disguises, some courtesy
of Chambers' makeup prowess. One rumor depicts the CIA watching Mission
Impossible on television and getting disguise ideas from it, then going
after the makeup artist, Chambers, to work for them...we do know for a fact
that Hollywood makeup artists have been instrumental in various
military/intelligence projects...In this regard I interviewed Bob Schiffer,
the head of Disney's makeup and hair department with over sixty years in the
business. The veteran makeup master touched on this sensitive topic:
John did mention to me at one time that he was involved in something for the
government. Some of us, including myself, were recruited during World War II
by (then Lieutenant) Gordon Bau for undercover work of a certain type.
Sometimes we did not know what the makeup was used for. A lot of us did
camouflage work in World War II. I was also involved in the years after the
war. In the Bay of Pigs invasion we made up people to look Cuban. (Emphasis
added) (9)
The SLA saga continues to make its presence known because of the possibility
that CIA-sponsored mind-control programs may have been used, in part, as a
means to control the public's perception of black militants and left-wing
politics in America.
Was DeFreeze mind-controlled? His history is somewhat clouded, but it
appears that he first worked as a snitch/informant for the LAPD's Criminal
Conspiracy Section, supplying information about black militant organizations
during the 60's. During the early 70's, DeFreeze was serving a sentence in
Vacaville Prison during the time that the CIA was alleged to have been
conducting drug experiments there at what was notoriously known as the
"third floor." According to author Mick Farren:
"DeFreeze became a (CIA) test subject and also recruited others under the
cover of leading a self-help group called the 'Black Cultural Association.'
DeFreeze's own statement is that he was drugged and conditioned by CIA
agents and instructed that he would become "the leader of a radical movement
and kidnap a wealthy person." After escaping through a conveniently unlocked
exit door, DeFreeze did exactly that."
Rev. Jim Jones
Jim Jones was the supposed mastermind behind the People's Temple massacre in
Guyana where over a thousand people died. One would have to wonder if
perhaps Jim Jones had also read Stranger in a Strange Land or Catcher in the
Rye.
It is possible that the real purpose behind Jonestown was to create a
breeding ground for mind-controlled assassins like Chapman and Hinckley.
(The People's Temple also had ties to the World Vision ministry).
The official version of this story is that Jones' followers committed mass
suicide by swallowing cyanide-laced Kool-Aid in an act of religious devotion
to Jones. However, new information stresses the possibility that this
"massacre" was in reality an MKULTRA mind-control experiment, conducted by
the CIA, and that most of the dead were actually murdered. (Drugs such as
those used in known MKULTRA operations were discovered at Jonestown,
including a whopping 11,000 doses of Thorazine, a major tranquilizer used in
psychiatric hospitals). (10)
In a recording made during the final moments of the mass deaths in
Jonestown, Jim Jones can be heard shouting, "Get Dwyer out of here," in
reference to Richard Dwyer, a CIA agent who was present during the
"massacre". Evidence gathered by other researchers points to a strong CIA
presence in almost all of the dealings of Jim Jones before, during and after
Jonestown and to the Guyana site itself.
There is evidence that Jones used doubles and even some confusion as to
whether it was the genuine Jones whose body was found among the dead, as
photographs of what is alleged to be his body are missing his tattoos.
Witnesses to the shooting of Congressman Leo Ryan and others at the
Jonestown site describe the assailants as "zombie-like" and emotionless.
In reference to a rumored "death list" compiled by the People's Temple, a
congressional aide was quoted as saying, "There are 120 white, brainwashed
assassins out from Jonestown awaiting the trigger word to pick up their
hit." (Emphasis added) (11)
Serial Killers
The explosive rise in the 1980's of the serial killer phenomenon makes one
wonder if perhaps what we are seeing is the result of government
mind-control experiments gone awry, that perhaps these repetitive killers
are part of a stockpile of "sleepers" who woke up too early or whose
programming mechanism has been inadvertently triggered in some way.
Consider that for the most part, serial killers tend to prey on the
so-called "undesirables" of society, such as prostitutes, homosexuals, and
other targeted minorities of the ultra-right wing. (The FBI's Behavioral
Science Unit has stated that as many as 150 serial killers may be operating
undetected in the United States).
Serial killers, like mind-controlled sleepers, outwardly appear normal to
the rest of the world, but also seem to be acting under a programmed
obsession to kill, usually in the same way, over and over again, as if
trying to fulfill some sort of mission that is echoing around in their
heads.
Examples of this phenomenon would include the infamous Zodiac serial killer
who terrorized the Vallejo and San Francisco areas of California during the
mid-60's. It has been verified that at least five people were murdered there
by an unknown killer who called himself "Zodiac." (The Zodiac case is
officially still unsolved and the killer has never been caught or positively
identified. Some investigators have theorized that Zodiac may have even
continued his murder spree as late as 1978, but this has not been positively
verified).
This highly intelligent and purposely enigmatic killer sent dozens of
letters, some containing coded messages and diagrams, to area newspapers. In
these letters he detailed his crimes and taunted the police by threatening
to commit future crimes. Zodiac claimed that within the coded information he
had identified himself to the authorities. Many investigators believe that
the Zodiac murders may have begun in Riverside, California in October of
1966 with the murder of an 18 year old college student named Cherie Jo
Bates. Zodiac's MO was to attack couples who were parked in their cars in
out of the way lover's lanes, but strangely, his last verified murder was of
a lone male cab driver named Paul Stine in downtown San Francisco.
The case is still open to debate as far as Zodiac's motives are concerned:
According to one researcher, many of the Zodiac murders took place on
important dates according to the astrological signs of the Zodiac. According
to another, the postmarks of four of Zodiac's letters mailed in 1974, in
the order of their mailing, form a giant "Z" on a map of the Bay Area.
During the time of the known murders, the press and media strongly hinted
that the Zodiac was a crazed hippie and thus aligned with left-wing
politics. Author Gareth Penn has theorized that cabdriver Stine may have
been chosen because Zodiac needed a victim who he could place in a certain
area at a certain time in order to construct a giant, geometric shape on the
San Francisco Bay area landscape as a sort of evil, multi-dimensional, art
project.
Among the many cryptic letters that Zodiac sent to the press and police was
a highly intricate and complex character cipher containing over 300 coded
symbols. (This cipher was eventually cracked by an amateur husband and wife
team who saw it in the paper).
The Zodiac's exact body count is still disputed to this day as police
officials and other investigators are unable to agree on the exact number of
his victims.
Interestingly, one letter attributed to Zodiac was mailed from San Francisco
and arrived at the San Francisco Chronicle on February 14, 1974, seven days
after the Symbionese Liberation Army had kidnaped Patty Hearst. In this
letter, the author pointed out that the abbreviation "SLA" meant "kill" in
the old Norse language.
The Zebra Killings
San Francisco's "Zebra killings," a murder spree roughly simultaneous during
the time that the SLA was active, were allegedly perpetrated by American
Black Muslims motivated by "revenge" on the white race. Given the history of
such tactics as the use of disinformation and smear campaigns against
"subversive" groups, it is possible that this was a CIA/FBI program to
discredit the Muslim movement in America, and that the murders were possibly
committed by whites in black face makeup. For a 179-day period, the "Zebra"
killers brutally assaulted, robbed, and sodomized a total of twenty-three
persons, leaving fifteen dead.
These crimes were allegedly carried out by a Nation of Islam group that
called themselves the "Death Angels" and who believed that they were serving
Allah by killing "blue-eyed devils," i.e. Caucasians. To become a Death
Angel, a member supposedly had to kill either nine white males, five white
females, or four white children in order to earn their "wings". Polaroid
photographs were taken of the victims at the murder sites as proof by the
murderers that the killings had been accomplished. These murders were
supposed to guarantee the killers a special place in Mecca in the afterlife.
(The police estimated that up to two thousand persons earned their "wings").
The code-named "Zebra" killings (so-called by police because the crimes
involved black on white crimes) took place in San Francisco during a six
month period from 1973 to 1974 and occurring during the time of CIA/FBI
involvement in Vacaville and anti-subversive type operations in California.
The murders involved shootings, stabbings, and hackings with machetes.
On January 28, 1974, the killers claimed five victims in one night. A group
of five black Muslims were arrested and accused of being the principal
perpetrators, but one defendant (A.C. Harris) turned informant and testified
with immunity. According to some sources, up to twenty of these killers were
never caught or identified. The Nation of Islam paid for three defense
attorneys during the trial. All of the suspects received life sentences.
Disconnected Connections
The religious "cults" that come under public scrutiny always seem to involve
accusations of mind-control. Do the implications of government involvement
in a place like Jonestown and what we now know about MKULTRA suggest that we
will see this sort of history repeat itself? "Those who do not remember the
past are condemned to repeat it" are the very words that were displayed
prominently on a sign above the pulpit at Jonestown.
What will future investigations reveal as to CIA/intelligence ties lying
behind other groups such as the Branch Davidians or even Heaven's Gate?
Consider the rumblings that have been heard regarding Timothy McViegh and a
supposed mind-control device implanted in his brain. Perhaps McViegh
received a special telephone call just prior to the events in Oklahoma
City...
In response to public outcry in 1977, Congress forbade further research into
mind-control and demanded that these programs be terminated. Former CIA man
Victor Marchetti has revealed that as of today, so-called "black programs"
working with mind-control still exist, only now they are better hidden. A
new project that works with "synthetic telepathy" supposedly has the ability
to remotely transmit microwave voices into the heads of targeted persons.
This device and others are known as Less Than Lethal (LTL) weapons,
according to an article that ran in the April, 1994 issue of Scientific
American. (12) During the NBC documentary The Other Side, Major Edward Dames
of the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency stated that "The U.S.
Government has an electronic device which could implant thoughts in people."
He refused further comment afterward.
And so the beat goes on. Your tax dollars are at work, even as you sleep.
And who knows, maybe the next ringing telephone could be a "wake-up call"
for either you or me?

Project MKULTRA:
Did the U.S. Government Actually Create Programmed Assassins?

Call Waiting
One of my favorite movies is the 1970's spy thriller Telefon. In this film,
the KGB has hypnotized Russian agents to carry out assassinations and acts
of terrorism, prior to committing suicide on completion of their programmed
mission. All of this takes place without the programmed subjects having any
knowledge that they are mind-controlled. These individuals have been
programmed to react when the lines of a Robert Frost poem are recited to
them over the telephone. Placed all over America as "sleepers," these
robot-assassins live out their lives believing they are ordinary Americans,
until the fateful moment when the telephone rings and a voice begins to
recite, "The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep
and miles to go before I sleep. Remember, comrade, miles to go before you
sleep".
Pure Hollywood fantasy about a paranoid conspiracy theory, right?
Yes. No. Maybe.
I admit that I am split on whether or not I really believe in such a thing
as a mind controlled, programmed assassin. A part of me refuses to accept
that this concept is anything more than an irrational fear and a good, but
slightly paranoid, Cold War-type plot for a movie like Telefon.
Then there is another part of me that looks at the information about Project
MKULTRA pried out of the CIA via the Freedom of Information Act and I
somehow can't quite bring myself to dismiss the idea as just mere concept.
We now have substantiated proof that the CIA was working on projects to
control human behavior. And given the history of the agency as revealed in
once classified documents, it is safe to say that the CIA would have had a
great interest in creating the perfect agent: one who didn't know he/she was
an agent. One who was mind-controlled. (In The Control of Candy Jones,
author Donald Bain tells of Candy Jones, a leading New York fashion model
whose story is perhaps one of the best documented cases of successful
mind-control by the CIA via drugs, hypnosis and intensive programming; Ms.
Jones underwent hypnotic regression therapy after exhibiting disturbing
personality shifts and eventually what had happened to her emerged. The
story that unfolded told how Ms. Jones had been programmed by hypnosis to
act as a spy and courier for the CIA in the Far East, all the while in a
deep hypnotic trance. Once the CIA was through with her, she returned to her
former life with absolutely no memory of what had happened to her).
Such a scenario would be plausible denial at it's finest, producing the
ultimate patsy. Consider the following extract from the "Real Story Series"
booklet entitled "Who Killed Robert Kennedy?" by Philip Melanson:
"Since World War II, the US military and the CIA have conducted extensive
research into mind control and its relation to national security...Fearing
that the Russians might produce a "sleeper killer" as a weapon against the
West, the CIA began to pursue research on their own programmed assassin. An
agency memo in January 1954 discussed a "hypothetical problem": "Can an
individual...be made to perform an act of attempted assassination
involuntarily?" Can someone be turned into a "trigger mechanism" that can be
"induced to perform the act of attempted assassination at a later date"? The
target of the attempted assassination was to be "a prominent politician [of
the foreign country] or if necessary, an American official."
Melanson writes further that it would be much easier to create a "patsy"
than to program an assassin and also wrote that hypnosis expert Milton
Kline, a CIA consultant, estimated that he could create such a patsy in as
little as three months.
During their investigation and research into the history of LSD, authors
Martin A. Lee and Bruce Shlain were allowed access to a special reading room
at the Hyatt Regency in Rosslyn, Virginia. Documents pertinent to the CIA's
MKULTRA program were being opened to the public as the result of a Senate
subcommittee led by chairman Senator Ted Kennedy. In the prologue to their
book, Acid Dreams, they write:
In the course of our inquiry we uncovered CIA documents describing
experiments in sensory deprivation, sleep teaching, ESP, subliminal
projection, electronic brain stimulation, and many other methods that might
have applications for behavior modification. One project was designed to
turn people into programmed assassins who would kill on automatic command.
(1)
Most conspiracy researchers are familiar with the CIA's mind control program
MKULTRA. It was led by creepy scientist-spook Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, who
testified before the same subcommittee only after receiving a grant of
immunity from criminal prosecution. MKULTRA was launched in April of 1953 as
a continuation of mind-control experiments that originated in the Nazi death
camps of such notoriety as Dachau. (MKULTRA, ARTICHOKE and other CIA
projects became possible because of Project Paperclip, a US Army scheme that
smuggled Nazi scientists, intelligence personnel and other war criminals to
the United States from Europe at the end of WWII.)
The start of the Cold War and the Korean War in particular gave the go ahead
to mind control research with the advent of "brain washing" as a house-hold
name. Supposedly a development of the Communist-Chinese, the term was
actually coined by a magazine writer later discovered to be on the CIA
payroll as an "agent of influence". On the premise of a "brainwashing gap,"
the CIA got permission for research into countering alleged communist mind
control efforts and set out to develop their own to aid in the espionage
battle.
MKULTRA Calling: A History of Horrors
The abuses of MKULTRA are just beginning to see the light of day.
On November 19, 1953, an Army scientist and germ warfare specialist named
Frank Olson, who was working on an MKULTRA project, was without his
knowledge or consent, slipped a dose of LSD in a drink at a party attended
by other CIA personnel. For weeks afterward he remained in what many
witnesses described as a state of depression and paranoia. He confided to
one CIA doctor that the agency was putting something in his coffee to keep
him awake at night, that people were plotting against him and that he heard
voices commanding him to throw his wallet away, which he did, even though it
contained several uncashed pay checks. On the last night of his life, he
checked into a room at the Statler Hilton hotel in New York City along with
a CIA agent assigned to watch him. Olson allegedly jumped through a closed
hotel window and fell ten stories to his death. It was Dr. Gottlieb who had
slipped him the drug at the party. An elaborate cover-up eliminated any
clues as to the actual circumstances of his death. The full truth of what
happened would not come to light for twenty years. (On a recent episode of
the television show Unsolved Mysteries, serious doubts were raised as to
whether Olson actually jumped through the window unaided.) Olson's widow was
eventually awarded a large cash settlement in connection with his death at
the hands of the CIA.
Dr. Ewen Cameron, a prestigious psychiatrist who directed the Allain
Memorial Institute in Montreal, Canada also worked for the CIA during
MKULTRA. With financial backing from the CIA, Dr. Cameron developed a
bizarre method for reprogramming people. This involved "sleep therapy" where
a person was knocked out with sedatives for months at a time. Next, the
phase involved "depatterning" in which the person was given massive electro
shocks and frequent doses of LSD in an attempt to wipe out past behavior
patterns. Then, the doctor would attempt to recondition the person's mind
using a technique called "psychic driving," in which the person was again
heavily sedated, locked in a "sleep room" where tape recordings of various
messages were played over a speaker under the person's pillow as many as a
quarter of a million times. (2) (Nine of Dr. Cameron's former "patients"
have filed lawsuits against the American government in a claim that they are
still suffering from trauma as a result of these experiments.)
Another death attributed to the program was that of Harold Blauer in 1953.
Blauer was part of a study conducted by a group of doctors working under an
army contract at the New York State Psychiatric Institute. He died a few
hours after an injection of MDA, a psychedelic, amphetamine-derived drug,
similar to the 90's "rave" drug, Ecstasy. The drug had been supplied by the
Army Chemical Corps in co-operation with MKULTRA. One army researcher later
admitted that "we didn't know if it was dog piss or what it was we were
giving to him." (3)
And in perhaps one of the most bizarre and horrifying abuses, Dr. Paul Hoch,
while performing experiments for the army as a CIA consultant, gave intra
spinal injections of LSD and mescaline to psychiatric patients, later
lobotomizing them. In one experiment, after a psychedelic had been
administered, Dr. Hoch gave a subject a local anesthetic and asked him to
describe his visual experiences as surgeons removed pieces of his brain. (4)
(The list of other abuses occurring during MKULTRA is a lengthy one that
could fill a large volume.)
The CIA appears to have chosen to experiment primarily on certain groups:
prisoners, mental patients, "foreigners," sexual deviants, and minorities.
Much of the experimentation occurred at places like the Addiction Research
Center, a federal hospital for drug addicts in Lexington, Kentucky. CIA
documents describe experiments conducted in which persons were given LSD for
over seventy-five consecutive days in double, triple and quadruple doses.
The majority of these subjects were black males.
Abuses of inmates at Vacaville Medical Facility in California, a prison
psychiatric hospital, were also conducted under the auspices of MKULTRA.
Consider the following excerpts from a series of articles that ran in the
Napa Sentinel, entitled, "Mind Control" by Harry V. Martin and David Caul:
People have found it difficult to accept that an individual can be
hypnotized to perform an act which is against his moral principles. Some
experiments have been conducted by the U.S. Army which show that this
popular perception is untrue. The chairman of the Department of Psychology
at Colgate University, Dr. Estabrooks, has stated, "I can hypnotize a man
without his knowledge or consent into committing treason against the United
States." Estabrooks was one of the nation's most authoritative sources in
the hypnotic field...Dr. Estabrooks actually conducted experiments on U.S.
soldiers to prove his point. Soldiers of low rank and little formal
education were placed under hypnotism and their memories tested...One of the
experiments involved placing a normal, stable army private in a deep trance.
Watkins was trying to see if he could get the private to attack a superior
officer, a cardinal sin in the military. While the private was in a deep
trance, Watkins told him that the officer sitting across from him was an
enemy soldier who was going to attempt to kill him. In the private's mind,
it was a kill or be killed situation. The private immediately jumped up and
grabbed the officer by the throat. The experiment was repeated several
times, and in one case the man who was hypnotized and the man who was
attacked were very close friends. The results were always the same. In one
experiment, the hypnotized subject pulled out a knife and nearly stabbed
another person...Dr. James V. McConnel, head of the Department of Mental
Health Research at the University of Michigan, said, "The day has come when
we can combine sensory deprivation with the use of drugs, hypnosis, and the
astute manipulation of reward and punishment to gain almost absolute control
over an individual's behavior...A U.S. Navy psychologist, who claims that
the Office of Naval Intelligence had taken convicted murderers from military
prisons, used behavior modification techniques on them, and then relocated
them in American embassies throughout the world. Just prior to that time,
the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee had censured the CIA for its global
political assassination plots, including plots against Fidel Castro. The
Navy psychologist was Lt. Commander Thomas Narut of the U.S. Regional
Medical Center in Naples, Italy. The information was divulged at an Oslo
NATO conference of 120 psychologists from the eleven nation alliance...Dr.
Narut, in a question and answer session with reporters from many nations,
revealed how the Navy was secretly programming large numbers of assassins.
He said that the men he had worked with for the Navy were being prepared for
commando-type operations, as well as covert operations in U.S. embassies
worldwide. He described the men who went through his program as "hit men and
assassins" who could kill on command. Careful screening of the subjects was
accomplished by Navy psychologists through the military records, and those
who actually received assignments where their training could be utilized,
were drawn mainly from submarine crews, the paratroops, and many were
convicted murderers serving military prison sentences...After his NATO
lecture, Dr. Narut disappeared. He could not be located. Within a week of so
after the lecture, the Pentagon issued an emphatic denial that the U.S. Navy
had "engaged in psychological training or other types of training of
personnel as assassins." They disavowed the programming centers in San Diego
and Naples and stated they were unable to locate Narut, but did provide
confirmation that he was a staff member of the U.S. Regional Medical Center
in Naples.
As we shall see, Project MKULTRA may have culminated in such horrors as the
People's Temple tragedy in Jonestown, Guyana, the Kennedy assassinations and
more.
A Directory of Lone Nuts
To my knowledge, we have no actual proof that the CIA was successful in
actually creating a programmed assassin.
Or do we?
In the late 60's and early 70's, political assassinations changed the course
of three presidential elections. In each of these cases, responsibility was
placed on a "lone nut," conveniently relieving any need for public inquiries
into possible conspiracies. Research into assassinations and attempted
assassinations, various murders and mayhem, and covert activities of
America's intelligence community aimed at American citizens contain our best
evidence of the possible success of mind-control experiments that may have
produced programmed assassins.
Also present in some of these cases was the CIA technique of using "doubles"
and even theatrical effects to deliberately create confusion, promote
propaganda and negative sentiments against "subversive groups" or to bolster
the portrait of the "lone nut" in the minds of Americans. It is possible
that these "doubles" were also programmed and mind controlled. (During the
Vietnam era, the CIA's Operation CHAOS was routinely and illegally
conducting domestic spy operations on a large number of U.S. citizens,
attempting to prove a link between the anti-war movement and world
communism. To this day, the files that the CIA maintains on private citizens
are one of the Agency's most closely guarded secrets).
The cases of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Ronald Reagan, John
Lennon, Governor George Wallace, the People's Temple "massacre" at Jones
Town, the Symbionese Liberation Army, the so-called "Zebra" murders, and
even the Charles Manson Family are rife with tantalizing clues that seem to
suggest that mind-control has been achieved by the CIA. Consider the
following, itemized list in America's Directory of "Lone Nut" Assassins:
Sirhan Sirhan
Sirhan Sirhan was/is portrayed as the "lone nut" who assassinated Robert F.
Kennedy at the Ambassodor Hotel in Los Angeles on June 5, 1968. There is
strong evidence of the presence of the CIA in this assassination. The LAPD
(which appears to have been under the direction of the CIA at the time of
the investigation) figures prominently in the cover-up which took place
after the shooting.
The fatal wound that killed Robert Kennedy came from a gunshot behind his
right ear. Sirhan, according to multiple witnesses, fired his gun from
Kennedy's front and was never behind the Senator at any time. Once the
shooting started, Sirhan was quickly hauled to the floor by several people
who had been assigned to guard Kennedy that day. (It has been alleged that
Sirhan, like Lee Harvey Oswald, was simply a mind-controlled patsy and that
the real killer was Thane Eugene Cesar, an armed security guard and a
Kennedy-hater with right-wing ties. Cesar was in the perfect position to
fire the fatal shot as he was behind and just slightly to the right of
Senator Kennedy and had been guiding him by the arm through the crowd at the
moment of the shooting).
In what is perhaps one of the best cases for proof of successful
mind-control, the evidence strongly suggests that Sirhan may have been
programmed (by the CIA) with hypnosis and drugs. (Sirhan claims to have no
memory of the killing.)
Master hypnotist William J. Bryan, Jr., who allegedly worked for the CIA,
bragged about hypnotizing Sirhan prior to the assassination, as well as the
serial killer known as the "Boston Strangler," Albert DeSalvo. Bryan, by his
own account, had been the "chief of all medical survival training for the
United States Air Force, which meant the brainwashing section." He also
claimed to have been a consultant for the film "The Manchurian Candidate,"
which was based on Richard Condon's famous novel about a man who is captured
by Communists and hypnotically programmed to return to the United States to
kill a political leader. Condon's novel was itself based upon the CIA's
ARTICHOKE program (the successor to Project BLUEBIRD), which sought to find
a way to create a programmed, amnesiac assassin. Project ARTICHOKE
eventually became Project MKULTRA.
In the July-August, 1997 issue of Probe, (Vol. 4 No. 5), "The Robert F.
Kennedy Assassination: Sirhan Now Says: "I Am Innocent," author/researcher
Lisa Pease elaborates further:
How far did these experiments progress? There is little in the way of a
written record. In the wake of the exposes during the Watergate period,
exiting CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all files relating to the CIA's
various mind control experiments destroyed. A few years later, a small
number of documents was found and reviewed by the Senate. In these few
documents may lay some hints as to what happened to Robert Kennedy. One
surviving document in particular bears an uncanny resemblance to the
circumstances surrounding the assassination. The 1954 CIA document describes
efforts to find a way to induce an individual "to perform an act,
involuntarily, of attempted assassination against a prominent [deleted in
original] politician or if necessary, against an American official." (And
the original document contained) the suggestion that the subject be
"surreptitiously drugged through the medium of an alcoholic cocktail at a
social party." Sirhan had been drinking Tom Collinses that night. His last
memory was of pouring coffee for a pretty girl, described by a waiter there
as wearing a polka dot dress. Had Sirhan been surreptitiously drugged? The
use of drugs, or hypnosis, or likely a combination of both, would go a long
way towards explaining Sirhan's strange behavior as recorded by the
witnesses that night. Several witnesses noticed something odd in Sirhan's
behavior before and during the shooting. Earlier that evening, one of the
Western Union teletype operators, Mary Groh, noticed Sirhan staring at the
teletype machine as though transfixed. "[H]e came over to my machine and
started staring at it. Just staring. I'll never forget his eyes. I asked
what he wanted. He didn't answer. He just kept staring." One of the men
attempting to overpower Sirhan during the shooting, George Plimpton, was
amazed that Sirhan's eyes were "dark brown and enormously peaceful." Another
man in the same position, Joseph Lahaiv, described Sirhan as looking "very
tranquil" during the struggle. Two waiters, Vincent Di Pierro and Martin
Patruski, reported that Sirhan appeared to be smiling. A cook named Yosio
Niwa said, "I'll never forget that guy's face...I was so upset...he was
smiling...." When Sirhan was taken from the scene, a patrolman shined a
flashlight in Sirhan's eyes to check for indications of drugs or alcohol. On
the stand at Sirhan's trial, the patrolman "couldn't recall" what he
determined. But in an earlier statement he had said that Sirhan's pupils
"didn't react" to the light and that they "were real wide". The official
records from Sirhan's blood test were lost by the Los Angeles Police
Department...If the bulk of the witnesses, who gave matching stories, are
correct, then Sirhan couldn't have fired the shots, and was in a
disassociative state during the shooting. If he was under hypnosis and given
amnesia-producing drugs such as the CIA was experimenting with for well over
fourteen years by that time, then Sirhan's claims of memory loss and
innocence, while strange, may well be true...for seekers of truth, the full
record presents the very likely and disturbing possibility that Sirhan was a
mind-controlled patsy performing an act of "attempted assassination" to
distract from the real killers.
In his book, "The Search for the Manchurian Candidate," John D. Marks
details the CIA's efforts to hypnotically program people and adds the
following:
The veteran admits that none of the arguments he uses against a conditioned
assassin would apply to a programmed "patsy" whom a hypnotist could walk
through a series of seemingly unrelated events, a visit to a store, a
conversation with a mailman, picking a fight at a political rally. The
subject would remember everything that happened to him and be amnesic only
for the fact the hypnotist ordered him to do these things. There would be no
gaping inconsistency in his life of the sort that can ruin an attempt by a
hypnotist to create a second personality. The purpose of this exercise is to
leave a circumstantial trail that will make the authorities think the patsy
committed a particular crime. The weakness might well be that the amnesia
would not hold up under police interrogation, but that would not matter if
the police did not believe his preposterous story about being hypnotized or
if he were shot resisting arrest. Hypnosis expert Milton Kline says he could
create a patsy in three months; an assassin would take him six.
Phrases from Sirhan's private notebooks show the characteristics of
"automatic writing" of a hypnotically programmed subject and he even makes
references to mind control, money, drugs, the Occult and even the name "Di
Salvo."
Witness Sandra Serrano, who was harassed/intimidated/ridiculed by LAPD
polygraph operator Sgt. Enrique Hernandez as he tried to get her to change
her story (Hernandez had ties to the CIA and may have been a professional
CIA interrogator) reported that just prior to the shooting, she saw Sirhan
with a "Latin" man and a girl in a polka-dot dress ascending an emergency
stairway in the hotel where RFK was shot. Other witnesses saw Sirhan near a
coffee machine inside the hotel with a girl in a polka-dot dress who was
whispering to him. (Sirhan has said that the last thing he remembers prior
to the shooting of RFK was having a cup of coffee with a girl. The next
thing he remembered afterward was being restrained after firing his weapon
at Kennedy. This suggests the possibility of additional drugs being placed
in his coffee, and further hypnotic suggestions being given to him just
prior to the shooting)
Immediately after the shooting, witnesses saw this same woman and a male
companion (the "Latin") leaving the hotel and gleefully exclaiming, "We shot
him! We shot Senator Kennedy!" Prosecution psychiatrist Seymour Pollack, who
was convinced that Sirhan had been programmed by someone, asked Sirhan while
under hypnosis if anyone was with him when he shot Kennedy, to which he
replied in a hushed tone, "the girl, the girl."
Lee Harvey Oswald
The alleged "lone nut" assassin of JFK had numerous ties to the intelligence
community and served with the Marine Corps at Atsugi, Japan ( originating
base of the U2 spy plane flights) during which time LSD and other drugs were
known to have been field tested there by the CIA.
There is the implication to be considered by his known presence at Atsugi
that Oswald may have been the first "Manchurian Candidate" patsy from which
many others were later fashioned. The use of numerous "doubles" in the
Oswald saga is well documented by other researchers, as well as many
instances of what may indicate the use of programmed collaborators. (See
"Kerry Thornley" below)
James Earl Ray
The alleged assassin of Martin Luther King may have also been a carefully
chosen and groomed patsy. This case provides us with evidence of the FBI and
CIA's involvement in the assassination of what they termed as a "black
political dissident". (J. Edgar Hoover's hatred of King is well documented,
as well as his agency's attempts to discredit King, whom the FBI felt had
communist ties. It should be noted here that the FBI's infamous COINTELPRO
[Counterintelligence Program] was in full force during the 1960's and early
1970's and is possibly still in effect to this day, but under a different
name). (fn1)
Suspiciously, Ray (who by all accounts was not a very sophisticated
criminal) was somehow able to obtain enough money to secure a phony
passport, travel by plane all over Europe and elude the authorities who were
looking for him, acting more like a seasoned spook then the small time
burglar and thief he actually was.
While there appears to be no overt evidence of mind control where Ray is
concerned, the case remains of interest for the use of the Ray doubles "Paul
Bridgemen," "Eric Starvo Galt," and "Ramon George Sneyd." Ray employed all
three of these names. It came to light later that these aliases were
identical to the names of three men who lived near each other in Toronto (a
city where Ray had never been). All of these men were about the same height
and build and all bore facial scars that were similar to Ray's.
In the tradition of intelligence "handlers," there is the mysterious
"Raoul," whom Ray claims was his contact during the days leading up to the
assassination.
Though a rifle found at the scene allegedly had a single fingerprint that
was attributed to Ray, no prints matching his were found in the room he
rented across from King's motel and from which Ray supposedly fired at King.
(It took the FBI's fingerprint section two weeks to identify this
fingerprint, even though they were comparing the print against a master set
of prints that contained only 720 samples. This would indicate that the
print alleged to have been found on the rifle was of a very poor and dubious
quality).
Recent tests (pushed for by Martin Luther King's son) have also provided
strong indications that the recovered rifle was not the weapon that was used
to assassinate King. Tennessee Judge Joe Brown ruled that 12 out of the 18
test bullets that were fired through the rifle had markings different from
the markings on the bullet that killed Dr. King. These test results alone
seem to support the contention that Ray was groomed for his role as a patsy.
Charles Manson
Manson and his followers committed the Tate-LaBianca and other killings
during the late 1960's. Manson used mind-control techniques such as
hypnotism, high doses of LSD, and programming to turn peaceful flower
children into killers, but one has to wonder just exactly where did Manson
learn to program people?
Manson was part of the "hippie element" at the time of the CIA's use of
drugs and the MKULTRA experiments in an attempt to discredit the left wing
anti-war movement in America.
Manson's supply of LSD may have come directly from the CIA. A new type of
LSD known as "Orange Sunshine" was being used by the Manson Family
immediately prior to the Tate-LaBianca murders according to Family member
Charles "Tex" Watson, who wrote in his prison memoir that it was the use of
the Orange Sunshine LSD that finally convinced him that Manson's Helter
Skelter, apocalyptic vision was real. (13) And this special LSD may have
been supplied by the CIA. Orange Sunshine was manufactured and distributed
by a group known as "The Brotherhood of Eternal Love" who operated out of a
beach resort near Los Angeles. The Brotherhood had among it's drug
manufacturers and dealers, one Ronald Stark, a person with known connections
to the CIA. It is believed that Stark was responsible for the manufacture of
up to 50 million hits of LSD). (14)
It is also interesting to note that Manson, an avowed racist and having a
known affinity for right-wing beliefs, was somehow conveniently and
completely linked with the left-wing by the news media. It can be argued
that the Manson murders "nailed the coffin shut" in the minds of many
Americans as far as the image of the Hippies as a peace-loving, political
movement was concerned, and by all indications, this seems to have been just
one very weird part of a successful CIA operation to discredit the anti-war
movement in America.
Manson's personal obsession was with "Helter Skelter" and his belief was
that this event would ignite a black-white race war in America; the
Tate-LaBianca murders and the murder of musician Gary Hinman were definitely
staged with false clues that the killers (or perhaps someone else) hoped
would be blamed on elements of the "black militant" movement.
Manson has said in interviews that he based some of his "philosophy" on the
science fiction novel Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Hienlien. In a
scenario perhaps reminiscent of Mark David Chapman's and John Hinckley's
infatuation with Catcher in the Rye, could Stranger in a Strange Land
somehow have been Manson's program-trigger mechanism? Was the concept of
Helter Skelter part of Manson's program?
And consider that if a hippie-ex-convict-nobody like Charles Manson could
program people to kill, then why not the U.S. Government?
In the book, Helter Skelter, Manson prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi discusses
Manson's programming techniques in depth, likening much of Manson's
programming abilities to the same thing that takes place with recruits in
the U.S. military. But Bugliosi also hints at "some missing element, "some
aspect of Manson's personality that we do not understand" that enabled him
to program his followers to kill.
Manson was in prison during the time that the CIA was known to be using
inmates at Vacaville prison in the MKULTRA experiments, a fact that leaves
one to speculate that perhaps Manson was some sort of mind-controlled guru
cum agent provocateur, set loose against the "subversive" left-wing elements
by the CIA to discredit them.
Since his incarceration for the Tate-LaBianca murders, Manson has again
served part of his time at Vacaville.
Arthur Bremer
The attempted assassin of Governor George Wallace of Alabama was described
in the media as a deranged loner, but he wasn't alone at all if you count
the involvement of the CIA and the Nixon/Watergate "plumbers" who figure
prominently in this case. (It has been suggested that George Wallace's
political campaign could potentially have taken too many votes away from
rival presidential candidate Richard Nixon if Wallace was allowed to stay in
the presidential race. He was conveniently eliminated by Arthur Bremer).
On Monday, May 15, 1972, Bremer attempted to assassinate George Wallace at a
campaign rally in Laurel, Maryland. According to researchers, within one
hour after the Wallace shooting, Nixon aide Charles Colson, having invented
a ruse to place blame for the shooting on radical extremists of the left
wing, ordered Watergate "plumber" E. Howard Hunt to break into Bremer's
apartment and plant Black Panther and Angela Davis literature there.
(Bremer, however, had political convictions leaning towards the extreme
right. None other than George Wallace himself stated that he wondered how
members of Nixon's staff had found Bremer's apartment so quickly after the
shooting.)
But this "loner" actually had quite a few friends. One of these friends,
Dennis Cassini, turned up mysteriously dead in the trunk of his own car
before he could be questioned. (5) The FBI didn't even bother to investigate
his death. According to The Milwaukee Journal: "The former Wisconsin College
Republican State Chairman said (that) Donald Segretti, confessed political
spy and Republican saboteur in the 1972 presidential campaign, urged him to
recruit persons in Wisconsin to do dirty tricks to embarrass the Democrats."
Arthur Bremer was from Milwaukee. Records show that Bremer traveled
extensively while stalking Wallace on his campaign trail, staying in
expensive hotels, running up debts totaling $5,000 dollars, which he paid.
Quite unusual for a busboy whose total earnings were under $2,000 dollars
for the entire year. Bremer was also identified prior to the assassination
as the man seen accompanying Watergate-operative Anthony Ulasewicz in
Michigan. (The personality revealed by Bremer's diary was used as a source
for the character of Travis Bickle in the original screenplay of the movie
Taxi Driver, which would, curiously, later drive John Hinckley in his own
presidential assassination attempt).
Bremer was sentenced to 63 years in prison and has never given any
explanation as to why he shot Wallace.
Mark David Chapman
Yet another "lone nut" assassin who killed "leftist" John Lennon in New York
City on December 8, 1980.
Chapman had possible ties to the CIA as a former World Vision Employee.
(World Vision Missionaries is an "international evangelical order" that has
performed espionage work for CIA). Allegedly, while working for World
Vision, Chapman was trained in terrorist infested, war-torn Beruit as a
"security guard".
Less than four months before John Hinckley Jr. attempted to gun down Reagan,
Chapman shot and killed John Lennon in what may have been a practice run for
Hinckley's later assassination attempt on Reagan. It is known (via the
Freedom of Information Act) that the FBI kept an extensive file on Lennon
and considered him to be a "dangerous left-wing subversive."
The FBI was able to keep Lennon from obtaining permanent residency in the
United States, watched his apartment, followed him and even tapped his
telephone. According to British Journalist Fenton Bresler, who wrote the
book, "Who Killed John Lennon?," the FBI viewed Lennon (who was a close
confidant to ultra-radicals Jerry Rubin and Abbie Hoffman) as a dangerous
radical who exerted a strong influence on the public through his music and
political activities.
After shooting Lennon, Chapman sat down and calmly began reading from The
Catcher in the Rye, a novel by J.D. Salinger. (Interestingly, J.D. Salinger,
author of "Catcher" served in the Counter Intelligence Corps during WWII
with Henry Kissinger. Others have theorized that this book served as some
sort of post-hypnotic suggestion or program "trigger"). (6) Chapman himself
claims that he killed Lennon to promote the reading of "Catcher in the Rye,"
yet according to those who knew him, Chapman never exhibited strong feeling
about the book until just prior to the shooting.
Chapman has been quoted as saying this about the shooting:
"He (Lennon) walked past me and then I heard in my head, 'Do it, do it, do
it, like that,' I don't remember aiming. I must have done, but I don't
remember drawing a bead or whatever you call it...I had no emotion, no
anger....dead silence in the brain."
Fenton Bresler believed that Chapman was a brainwashed hit man. He wrote
that, "Mark David Chapman is in many ways as much the victim of those who
wanted to kill John Lennon as Lennon himself."
The police detective (Arthur O'Connor) who interviewed Chapman immediately
following the shooting was convinced, due to his strange demeanor, that
Chapman was under the influence of some sort of hypnotic programming.
(Chapman has officially been portrayed as simply an obsessed Beatles fan who
stalked and killed Lennon for fifteen minutes of fame. A source of mine, who
wishes to remain anonymous, told me about how he once worked in a record
store in Decatur, Georgia where Mark David Chapman often shopped for
records. He claims Chapman was not a Beatles fan at all, but rather that he
seemed obsessed with the music of Todd Rundgren). O'Conner stated that "It
is definitely illogical to say the Mark committed the murder to make himself
famous. He did not want to talk to the press from the very start. It's
possible Mark could have been used by somebody. I saw him the night of the
murder. I studied him intensely. He looked as if he could have been
programmed."
Although Chapman has been portrayed as a loner, he was anything but. He
worked extensively with children as a camp counselor for the YMCA and
appeared to have had a normal social life.
John Hinckley, Jr.
The attempted lone nut assassin of Ronald Reagan, whose death would have
placed CIA-spook-vice-president George Bush into the white house eight years
earlier than when he was eventually elected. (It should also be noted that
the members of the Bush and Hinckley families are old friends, both families
having made big money in the Texas oil boom. In fact, Bush's son, Neil, was
supposed to have had dinner with Scott Hinckley, John Hinckley's brother,
the evening that John went on his shooting rampage. John Hinckley, Sr., a
reputed CIA officer and close friend of George Bush was also an important
World Vision official).
Like Mark David Chapman, John Hinckley, Jr. also had a copy of Catcher in
the Rye in his possession when apprehended. According to official reports,
Hinckley was also heavily "influenced" by the Travis Bickle character from
the Martin Scorcese film Taxi Driver. (In this film, Robert DeNiro plays an
obsessed gunman who plans to assassinate a presidential candidate, a
character that was inspired by Arthur Bremer's personal diary).
Like Arthur Bremer, Hinckley traveled extensively around the U.S., and prior
to his assassination attempt on Reagan, was arrested at the airport in
Nashville, Tennessee with three handguns. Curiously, Hinckley was not placed
under any surveillance after this incident. And in emulation of both Sirhan
Sirhan and Bremer, Hinckley also kept a dairy in which he detailed his plans
for shooting Reagan.
There are reports that a Hinckley "double" named "Richardson" traced
Hinckley's path from Colorado to Connecticut, all the while writing letters
to Jodie Foster, just as the real Hinckley did. This Richardson was arrested
with a weapon at New York's Port Authority bus terminal, claiming he was
going to kill Reagan. Richardson and also had links to World Vision
Ministry. No less a figure than conspiracy queen Mae Brussel allegedly
spotted an apparent Hinckley double prior to the assassination attempt and
reported this to the Secret Service. (The Hinckley double's true name is
Edward Richardson, a person who looked amazingly like Hinckley).
One has to ask the obvious: what are the odds that two "unstable" men could
be obsessed with the same actress from the same film at the same time, while
"behaving" under nearly exact circumstances? That both of these men were
intent on re-creating the Travis Bickle character's assassination scheme
from the movie "Taxi Driver"? What are the chances that two separate
"mentally unstable," lone individuals, with so many odd similarities, would
reach critical mass at the same time and in the same way?
It is known through court records that Hinckley underwent psychiatric
treatment just prior to his attempt on Reagan and that at the time of the
shooting, he was under the influence of psychiatric drugs.
Found not guilty by reason of insanity, he remains confined to a psychiatric
hospital where he has occasionally corresponded with such notables as serial
killer Ted Bundy and Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme of Manson Family fame and the
attempted presidential assassin of Nixon replacement, Gerald Ford. (There
has been speculation that master mindcontroller Manson himself ordered
Lynette Fromme to shoot Ford).
Kerry Thornley
Kerry Thornley has claimed that he and Oswald were both mind-controlled
patsys and involved in the JFK assassination without conscious knowledge.
Thornley served in the Marine Corps with Oswald. He too, was once stationed
at Atsugi, Japan. Thornley has come to believe that he was, against his will
and without his knowledge, part of the conspiracy that killed John Kennedy.
(Thornley once worked at a Mexican restaurant in the Little Five Points
area, my former neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia. I remember him being
pointed out to me once at a party and he was a familiar local figure to
everyone. At that time, Thornley was regarded as just another oddball street
personality who had wacky ideas about the JFK assassination, and no one
really gave any particular credence to what he had to say. This was prior to
the revival of mass interest in the Kennedy assassination that was generated
by the release of the Oliver Stone film, JFK).
Thornley testified before the Warren Commission and at the time he claims he
was satisfied that Oswald was Kennedy's killer. In the book, Conspiracies,
Cover-ups and Crimes, author Jonathan Vankin interviewed Thornley and
reveals, among other things, that Thornley was living/working in New Orleans
at the same time that Oswald was living there and in a neighborhood that was
host to a whole cadre of intelligence agencies. Thornley reportedly met both
Guy Bannister and David Ferrie while in New Orleans, and after moving to
L.A., he met John Roselli, one of the country's most powerful mobsters and
an object of suspicion regarding the Kennedy assassination. (Roselli was
later found chopped into pieces and stuffed into an oil drum which had been
dumped off the Florida coast shortly before he was to testify before the
House Select Committee on Assassinations)
Vankin's book discusses how in 1961, while living in New Orleans, Thornley
was introduced to a man named "Gary Kirstein" in a New Orleans bar called
the Bourbon House. Thornley recalls that Kirstein was "sort of a neanderthal
racist" and was writing a book titled, "Hitler Was a Good Guy". Thornley, in
recalling the most memorable parts of his conversation with Kirstein states
that he (Kirstein) and himself debated theoretically on how to assassinate
President Kennedy, as if they were two writers discussing how it could be
written in a novel. Thornley also says that Kirstein basically predicted
everything that was going to happen in the next twenty years, including the
Manson Family, the war in Vietnam, etc. (Thornley states that at the time he
listened to this conversation, he was bored and disbelieving of Kirstein and
that he had blotted out the memory of this conversation for ten years)
Thornley now believes that Kirstein may have been E. Howard Hunt, CIA spook
extraordinaire and infamous Watergate "plumber". Thornley later wrote an
article entitled, "Did the Plumbers Plug J.F.K., Too?" that appeared in an
Atlanta underground newspaper. In the book Secret and Suppressed, Thornley
wrote an article titled, "Is Paranoia a Form of Awareness?" in which he
writes:
After I wrote Did the Plumbers Plug J.F.K., Too?, I got two unusual phone
calls. First was a male voice imitating the sounds of a speeded-up tape
recorder or a gibberish-talking cartoon character. Ten years earlier a (New
Orleans resident) named Roger Lovin and I used to address one another in the
Bourbon House with identical noises to those I was now hearing on the other
end of the line...This time I simply replied with a word or two of
bewilderment, and the caller hung up. Within seconds, the phone rang again.
Now a male voice-not Roger's-said very clearly, "Kerry, do you know who this
is?" When I answered in the negative, he said, "Good!" and again the caller
hung up. (7)
Thornley said the voice on the telephone brought back "eerie memories" and
sounded similar to the voice of the "Kirstein/Hunt" individual from New
Orleans. (Shades of Telefon?) Also while in Atlanta, Thornley went to the
Atlanta police during a time that an interest in new allegations regarding
the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. were being investigated because
he again "remembered that Kirstein had also talked about killing King".
Twelve days after making statements to the police, Thornley was attacked and
pistol-whipped by two men in ski masks who, strangely, took only his
identification.
Thornley believed that he was programmed for some part in the assassination
of Kennedy and that "Kirstein" was his controller and may have implanted
some sort of device in his brain.
Donald DeFreeze
The "leader" of the Symbionese Liberation Army, who (like Manson) was
imprisoned at Vacaville during the time of the MKULTRA experiments, may have
been a CIA, FBI "agent provocateur". He may also have been mind-controlled.
According to the Jonathan Vankin and John Whalen:
There was something queer about the SLA all along. Its leader, Donald
"General Field Marshall Cinque" DeFreeze-career crook and informer for the
LAPD-emerged from the California penal system's Vacaville Medical Facility
where he'd come under the tutelage of CIA agent Colston Westbrook, a
psychological warfare specialist. Westbrook enlisted DeFreeze into his
"Black Cultural Association." Armed robber DeFreeze obtained early release
from Vacaville by performing "a favor" for prison authorities. (Doing a
"favor" was in reference to submitting to psychiatric experiments). The SLA
went public with the assassination of African-American Oakland school
superintendent Dr. Marcus Foster on Nov. 6, 1973. Just weeks earlier, a
neo-Nazi group issued a flyer predicting Foster's death. "Black men" were
witnessed scurrying from the scene of the crime but the arrested shooters
were whites. Black face makeup was discovered in their apartments. (8)
Regarding the use of makeup and other theatrical props, consider the
following: In a Strange Magazine article, The Makeup Man and the Monster:
John Chambers and the Patterson Bigfoot Suit, author/editor Mark Chorvinsky
mounted an investigation into whether the famous "Wright- Patterson Bigfoot
film, a virtual cornerstone in the investigations and belief of the
existence of Bigfoot, was actually a hoax perpetrated by renowned Hollywood
makeup/effects artist John Chambers. The film was allegedly shot on October
20, 1967 and shows what is purported to be an actual Bigfoot creature as it
walks through the forest in California. The footage has been featured in
numerous television shows and films and is usually the film people think
about when debating the reality of the creature.
During Chorvinsky's investigation, he interviewed many of Hollywood's most
prominent makeup artists. Chorvinsky writes: "I have investigated many
phenomena over the past decade, and some of the cases have been quite
controversial, but rarely has anyone requested anonymity...I'm in the
awkward position of knowing more than I can tell at this time. One aspect of
either (John) Chambers' career or the legends surrounding it is the buzz
about Chambers' involvement in government-sponsored "black box" work. No one
has ever been willing to go on the record concerning this alleged work, but
within the Hollywood makeup community it is generally believed that such
work did occur and that it has added to the secretiveness of Chambers and
his closet associates...Widespread rumors in the makeup community depict
Chambers applying a wig and prosthetics to a cadaver to fake the death of a
foreign ruler, and engaging in a number of "Company"-sponsored
"non-theatrical" projects. These black box rumors are all reminiscent of
Mission Impossible plots, many of which relied on disguises, some courtesy
of Chambers' makeup prowess. One rumor depicts the CIA watching Mission
Impossible on television and getting disguise ideas from it, then going
after the makeup artist, Chambers, to work for them...we do know for a fact
that Hollywood makeup artists have been instrumental in various
military/intelligence projects...In this regard I interviewed Bob Schiffer,
the head of Disney's makeup and hair department with over sixty years in the
business. The veteran makeup master touched on this sensitive topic:
John did mention to me at one time that he was involved in something for the
government. Some of us, including myself, were recruited during World War II
by (then Lieutenant) Gordon Bau for undercover work of a certain type.
Sometimes we did not know what the makeup was used for. A lot of us did
camouflage work in World War II. I was also involved in the years after the
war. In the Bay of Pigs invasion we made up people to look Cuban. (Emphasis
added) (9)
The SLA saga continues to make its presence known because of the possibility
that CIA-sponsored mind-control programs may have been used, in part, as a
means to control the public's perception of black militants and left-wing
politics in America.
Was DeFreeze mind-controlled? His history is somewhat clouded, but it
appears that he first worked as a snitch/informant for the LAPD's Criminal
Conspiracy Section, supplying information about black militant organizations
during the 60's. During the early 70's, DeFreeze was serving a sentence in
Vacaville Prison during the time that the CIA was alleged to have been
conducting drug experiments there at what was notoriously known as the
"third floor." According to author Mick Farren:
"DeFreeze became a (CIA) test subject and also recruited others under the
cover of leading a self-help group called the 'Black Cultural Association.'
DeFreeze's own statement is that he was drugged and conditioned by CIA
agents and instructed that he would become "the leader of a radical movement
and kidnap a wealthy person." After escaping through a conveniently unlocked
exit door, DeFreeze did exactly that."
Rev. Jim Jones
Jim Jones was the supposed mastermind behind the People's Temple massacre in
Guyana where over a thousand people died. One would have to wonder if
perhaps Jim Jones had also read Stranger in a Strange Land or Catcher in the
Rye.
It is possible that the real purpose behind Jonestown was to create a
breeding ground for mind-controlled assassins like Chapman and Hinckley.
(The People's Temple also had ties to the World Vision ministry).
The official version of this story is that Jones' followers committed mass
suicide by swallowing cyanide-laced Kool-Aid in an act of religious devotion
to Jones. However, new information stresses the possibility that this
"massacre" was in reality an MKULTRA mind-control experiment, conducted by
the CIA, and that most of the dead were actually murdered. (Drugs such as
those used in known MKULTRA operations were discovered at Jonestown,
including a whopping 11,000 doses of Thorazine, a major tranquilizer used in
psychiatric hospitals). (10)
In a recording made during the final moments of the mass deaths in
Jonestown, Jim Jones can be heard shouting, "Get Dwyer out of here," in
reference to Richard Dwyer, a CIA agent who was present during the
"massacre". Evidence gathered by other researchers points to a strong CIA
presence in almost all of the dealings of Jim Jones before, during and after
Jonestown and to the Guyana site itself.
There is evidence that Jones used doubles and even some confusion as to
whether it was the genuine Jones whose body was found among the dead, as
photographs of what is alleged to be his body are missing his tattoos.
Witnesses to the shooting of Congressman Leo Ryan and others at the
Jonestown site describe the assailants as "zombie-like" and emotionless.
In reference to a rumored "death list" compiled by the People's Temple, a
congressional aide was quoted as saying, "There are 120 white, brainwashed
assassins out from Jonestown awaiting the trigger word to pick up their
hit." (Emphasis added) (11)
Serial Killers
The explosive rise in the 1980's of the serial killer phenomenon makes one
wonder if perhaps what we are seeing is the result of government
mind-control experiments gone awry, that perhaps these repetitive killers
are part of a stockpile of "sleepers" who woke up too early or whose
programming mechanism has been inadvertently triggered in some way.
Consider that for the most part, serial killers tend to prey on the
so-called "undesirables" of society, such as prostitutes, homosexuals, and
other targeted minorities of the ultra-right wing. (The FBI's Behavioral
Science Unit has stated that as many as 150 serial killers may be operating
undetected in the United States).
Serial killers, like mind-controlled sleepers, outwardly appear normal to
the rest of the world, but also seem to be acting under a programmed
obsession to kill, usually in the same way, over and over again, as if
trying to fulfill some sort of mission that is echoing around in their
heads.
Examples of this phenomenon would include the infamous Zodiac serial killer
who terrorized the Vallejo and San Francisco areas of California during the
mid-60's. It has been verified that at least five people were murdered there
by an unknown killer who called himself "Zodiac." (The Zodiac case is
officially still unsolved and the killer has never been caught or positively
identified. Some investigators have theorized that Zodiac may have even
continued his murder spree as late as 1978, but this has not been positively
verified).
This highly intelligent and purposely enigmatic killer sent dozens of
letters, some containing coded messages and diagrams, to area newspapers. In
these letters he detailed his crimes and taunted the police by threatening
to commit future crimes. Zodiac claimed that within the coded information he
had identified himself to the authorities. Many investigators believe that
the Zodiac murders may have begun in Riverside, California in October of
1966 with the murder of an 18 year old college student named Cherie Jo
Bates. Zodiac's MO was to attack couples who were parked in their cars in
out of the way lover's lanes, but strangely, his last verified murder was of
a lone male cab driver named Paul Stine in downtown San Francisco.
The case is still open to debate as far as Zodiac's motives are concerned:
According to one researcher, many of the Zodiac murders took place on
important dates according to the astrological signs of the Zodiac. According
to another, the postmarks of four of Zodiac's letters mailed in 1974, in
the order of their mailing, form a giant "Z" on a map of the Bay Area.
During the time of the known murders, the press and media strongly hinted
that the Zodiac was a crazed hippie and thus aligned with left-wing
politics. Author Gareth Penn has theorized that cabdriver Stine may have
been chosen because Zodiac needed a victim who he could place in a certain
area at a certain time in order to construct a giant, geometric shape on the
San Francisco Bay area landscape as a sort of evil, multi-dimensional, art
project.
Among the many cryptic letters that Zodiac sent to the press and police was
a highly intricate and complex character cipher containing over 300 coded
symbols. (This cipher was eventually cracked by an amateur husband and wife
team who saw it in the paper).
The Zodiac's exact body count is still disputed to this day as police
officials and other investigators are unable to agree on the exact number of
his victims.
Interestingly, one letter attributed to Zodiac was mailed from San Francisco
and arrived at the San Francisco Chronicle on February 14, 1974, seven days
after the Symbionese Liberation Army had kidnaped Patty Hearst. In this
letter, the author pointed out that the abbreviation "SLA" meant "kill" in
the old Norse language.
The Zebra Killings
San Francisco's "Zebra killings," a murder spree roughly simultaneous during
the time that the SLA was active, were allegedly perpetrated by American
Black Muslims motivated by "revenge" on the white race. Given the history of
such tactics as the use of disinformation and smear campaigns against
"subversive" groups, it is possible that this was a CIA/FBI program to
discredit the Muslim movement in America, and that the murders were possibly
committed by whites in black face makeup. For a 179-day period, the "Zebra"
killers brutally assaulted, robbed, and sodomized a total of twenty-three
persons, leaving fifteen dead.
These crimes were allegedly carried out by a Nation of Islam group that
called themselves the "Death Angels" and who believed that they were serving
Allah by killing "blue-eyed devils," i.e. Caucasians. To become a Death
Angel, a member supposedly had to kill either nine white males, five white
females, or four white children in order to earn their "wings". Polaroid
photographs were taken of the victims at the murder sites as proof by the
murderers that the killings had been accomplished. These murders were
supposed to guarantee the killers a special place in Mecca in the afterlife.
(The police estimated that up to two thousand persons earned their "wings").
The code-named "Zebra" killings (so-called by police because the crimes
involved black on white crimes) took place in San Francisco during a six
month period from 1973 to 1974 and occurring during the time of CIA/FBI
involvement in Vacaville and anti-subversive type operations in California.
The murders involved shootings, stabbings, and hackings with machetes.
On January 28, 1974, the killers claimed five victims in one night. A group
of five black Muslims were arrested and accused of being the principal
perpetrators, but one defendant (A.C. Harris) turned informant and testified
with immunity. According to some sources, up to twenty of these killers were
never caught or identified. The Nation of Islam paid for three defense
attorneys during the trial. All of the suspects received life sentences.
Disconnected Connections
The religious "cults" that come under public scrutiny always seem to involve
accusations of mind-control. Do the implications of government involvement
in a place like Jonestown and what we now know about MKULTRA suggest that we
will see this sort of history repeat itself? "Those who do not remember the
past are condemned to repeat it" are the very words that were displayed
prominently on a sign above the pulpit at Jonestown.
What will future investigations reveal as to CIA/intelligence ties lying
behind other groups such as the Branch Davidians or even Heaven's Gate?
Consider the rumblings that have been heard regarding Timothy McViegh and a
supposed mind-control device implanted in his brain. Perhaps McViegh
received a special telephone call just prior to the events in Oklahoma
City...
In response to public outcry in 1977, Congress forbade further research into
mind-control and demanded that these programs be terminated. Former CIA man
Victor Marchetti has revealed that as of today, so-called "black programs"
working with mind-control still exist, only now they are better hidden. A
new project that works with "synthetic telepathy" supposedly has the ability
to remotely transmit microwave voices into the heads of targeted persons.
This device and others are known as Less Than Lethal (LTL) weapons,
according to an article that ran in the April, 1994 issue of Scientific
American. (12) During the NBC documentary The Other Side, Major Edward Dames
of the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency stated that "The U.S.
Government has an electronic device which could implant thoughts in people."
He refused further comment afterward.
And so the beat goes on. Your tax dollars are at work, even as you sleep.
And who knows, maybe the next ringing telephone could be a "wake-up call"
for either you or me?
