Whither the KGB?
In February 1974, Georgetown University's Center for Strategic and
International Studies (CSIS) hosted discussions on the plight of
dissenters in the Soviet Union, and on a means by which the U.S.
Government might most effectively intervene. highlights of these
discussions are reported in "Understanding the Solzhenitsyn Affair:
Dissent and its Control in the USSR," (CSIS, 1974).
KGB strategies were addressed in some detail during these discussions. It
was noted that the KGB's success depended on the extensive use of
informant networks and agent provocateurs; and, following Brezhnev's rise
to power, on the use of drugs and psychiatrists for further purpose of
manipulation and control. Shadowing, bugging, slandering, blacklisting and
other related tactics were also cited as serving KGB purpose. Participants
in the conference agreed that the KGB's obvious intent was to divide and
isolate the populace, to spread fear, and to silent dissenters.
Agencies of our own government are on record as having employed precisely
these same tactics on a recurrent basis. The Church and Rockefeller
Committee Hearings in the mid-70's purportedly put an end to these
practices. Based on recent developments, it would appear that the CIA's
and FBI's Operations MKULTRA, MHCHAOS and COINTELPRO (the focus of these
Senate Committee and Vice-President- level Hearings) were instead merely
driven underground. We are now in contact with a total of 25 individuals,
scattered throughout the United states, who firmly believe they are being
harassed by agencies of the U.S. Government. Others have been brought to
our attention whom we will be contacting in the future. The majority of
these individuals claim that their harassment and surveillance began in
1989.
The methods reportedly employed in these harassment campaigns bear a
striking resemblance to those attributed to the CIA and FBI during
Operations MKULTRA, MHCHAOS and COINTELPRO. The only difference now is
that electronic harassment and experimentation also appear to be (more
blatantly) involved.
The Berlin Wall is down, Communism is in the midst of a death rattle, and
the KGB no longer poses the threat which purportedly served to justify the
U.S. Government's resort to such operations as MKULTRA, MHCHAOS and
COINTELPRO. The KGB, since 1989, has been reduced to an increasingly
distant memory.
Reactivation of surveillance/harassment/mind-control operations in this
country suggest that the KGB, as an institution, was never the real
threat. A KGB "mentality," which is underlying pragmatic contempt for
civil liberties, appears, instead, to have been the driving force behind
MKULTRA, MHCHAOS and COINTELPRO, and the operations now being reported to
us.
The KGB "mentality" is a matter of personal predilection, not ideology.
Its objective is power and control, regardless of human cost. It is a
corrupting, cancerous influence, which feeds on fear, conformity and
government funding.
Four months ago, when this Project commenced, we approached these
complaints of government harassment and experimentation with an admitted
"high degree of caution." We are no longer skeptical. The growing numbers
of independent complaints and the similarities between those complaints
cannot be ignored. Under the circumstances, the KGB should be proud of
itself. As a "mentality," the KGB appears to be accomplishing more in
"burying this country" from within, than it could ever have hoped to have
achieved as an institution. It would appear that this country has a
serious problem on its hands which needs to be resolved.
Part I of this report, which is reprinted from the June-July edition of
the association's publication, Unclassified, preliminarily addresses the
complaints brought to our attention as of July 1992. Our objective, as
noted, was to weigh the legitimacy of those complaints in terms of the
directed-energy technologies reportedly involved. Part II discusses the
overt and covert patterns of harassment identified as a result of our
investigations, to date. A part of our objective, here, is to limit the
success of such operations in the future, by according them widespread
publicity.
In Part II, we do not identify individuals by name, both to honor their
privacy and because our investigations have not been completed. Part II,
like Part I, is a preliminary finding. Our focus is on the similarities of
the complaints being received -- similarities which Federal and State
legislators, the courts, the FBI, local law enforcement agencies, the
medical and psychiatric professions, and organizations such as the ACLU
and Amnesty International have so far chosen to ignore.
We frankly find it curious that more attention and creditability is being
accorded purported victims of UFO experiences and spectral visitations,
than to persons who complain of systematic harassment and experimentation
by the U.S. Government, involving technologies which the U.S. Government
is only now grudgingly admitting to possess. These complaints require
investigation. In due course
(and provided financial support is obtained), we hope to be able to
acquire the technology and supportive medical expertise to substantiate
the claims being made. We also hope to alter the institutional mindset
that U.S. Intelligence can be trusted. History, repeatedly, has proven
otherwise.
PART 1 - THE PROBLEM
SURFACES [Reprinted from the June-July 1992 edition of UNCLASSIFIED (Vol.
IV, No. 3), published by The Association of National Security Alumni,
Washington, D.C.]
The August-September 1991 issue of UNCLASSIFIED reviewed Hamline
University's "Public Administration" report on the resolution of MKULTRA
cases in 1988. Although the shocking details of medical ethics abuses by
the U.S. and Canadian governments were amply detailed, Washington and
Ottawa -- citing national security and government privilege -- stalled for
so long that cases never came to trial. the surviving victims settled for
a pittance in an out- of-court settlement.
Since no individuals or agencies were held legally accountable, the door
was left open for possible resumption of similar "mind- control"
activities.
In the context of that article, we mentioned briefly that some half-dozen
people had contacted us with appeals for assistance in ending what they
believe to be electronic harassment and mind- control experimentation,
possibly involving the CIA. We decided to take a closer look at the
situation.
We are now in touch with approximately a dozen individuals throughout the
United States who appear to be targets of harassment and mind-control
experimentation involving directed-energy technologies. [By mid-November
1992, the number had increased to 25.]
Typically, persons who complain of being "zapped by radio waves" and of
"hearing voices" are stigmatized as psychotic, delusional or
schizophrenic. Being mindful of this, as well as aware of the treatment
accorded UFO and psychic phenomena "freaks," we approach this subject with
a high degree of caution. Based on our preliminary investigation,
including interviews with the affected individuals, we conclude that the
matter is serious and should be pursued further.
The Existing Directed-Energy Arsenal Our first step was to determine what,
if any technology exists which might be used for electronic harassment.
The information was found in a "white paper" published in 1991 by the U.S.
Global Strategy Council -- a Washington-based organization, under the
chairmanship of Ray Cline, former Deputy Director of the CIA, who
maintains very close ties with the U.S. Intelligence community. The "white
paper" describes the foreign and domestic uses foreseen for laser weapons,
isotropic radiators, infrasound, non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse
generators, and high-powered microwave emitters.
The term, "non-lethal," used to describe this technology is misleading.
the energy emitted from all of these weapons can kill people when
appropriately amplified. At lower levels of amplified, they can cause
extreme forms of physical discomfort and debilitation.
The Department of the Army (DA) identifies these same weapons as
"non-conventional." They were so identified in an exhibit at a DA-
sponsored symposium on "The Soldier As A System," in Crystal City, VA, on
June 30, 1992. Beta wave incapacitators were separately mentioned during
the symposium as being particular interested to the U.S. Marine Corps.
We discussed these "non-conventional" directed-energy weapons with Mr.
Vernon Shisler, manager of the exhibit and the Army's delegate to NATO in
matters pertaining to "The Soldier As A System." Mr. Shisler acknowledged
not only that directed-energy weapons are in the Dod's arsenal, but also
that the American soldier will remain vulnerable to their effects, should
they be employed in the battlefield.
The U.S. Global Strategy Council recognizes the issue of vulnerability, as
well, and urges ongoing research into effective countermeasures.
Interested readers may want to send for the U.S. Global Strategy Council's
complete project proposal on this subject: (Title: Nonlethality:
Development of a National Policy and Employing Nonlethal Means in a New
Strategic Era, prepared by Janet Morris). A number of references in this
Proposal to unidentified, elusive "enemies" of the U.S. Government and the
potential domestic applications of this "non-lethal" technology invite
serious consideration by the public at large.
The Council's address is 1800 K Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.
20006, (202) 466-6029.
BIOEFFECTS OF
MICROWAVE RADIATION Research into biological and psychological effects of
exposure to microwave radiation is voluminous. The U.S. public has been
led to believe that the former Soviet Union leads in this research. The
fact is, the CIA and DoD [Department of Defense] have jointly pursued
precisely the same research since commencement of Project Pandora in the
1950's. The current primary users of this research appear to be the CIA,
DoD, the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Energy (DoE).
The Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) has participated in
this research since Project Pandora. In 1973, WRAIR discovered that
externally-induced auditory input could be achieved by means of pulsed
microwave audiograms, or analogs of spoken words' sounds. The effect on
the receiving end is the (schizophrenic) sensation of "hearing voices"
which are no part of the recipients' own thought processes.
The experiment prompted the following comment in "The Body Electric:
Electromagnetism and the Foundation of Life," by Robert O. Becker, M.D.,
and Gary Selden (Wm. Morrow & Company, NY, 1985): "Such a device has
obvious applications in covert operations designed to drive a target crazy
with 'voices' or deliver undetected instructions to a programmed
assassin."
This research has continued, and the results are published in various
publicly available scientific and technical journals. Interested readers
might consult, for example: Lin, James C., Electromagnetic Interaction
With Biological Systems (Plenum Press, NY, 1989). Professor Lin, then with
the Department of Bioengineering, University of Illinois, Chicago, has
published a number of books and articles on this subject. [He has more
recently informed us that he had designed the experiment referred above in
Dr. Becker's book.]
WRAIR has more recently been studying the biological effects of exposure
to high power microwave radiation. WRAIR presented a paper on this subject
to a DoD-sponsored symposium on "MW [microwave] Weapons" at the Naval
Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA, in mid-1989.
A matter of interest to us is why WRAIR should be experimenting with
auditory effects of pulsed microwave audiograms. Also, recent statements
by an Army psychiatrist assigned to the Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC)
suggest that WRAIR may be experimenting upon select psychiatric inpatients
with microwaves. This, too, is a matter to us.
CONGRESSIONAL
OVERSIGHT The Government's past record of abuses in the area of civil
rights is well documented. Within the past 30 years alone, we have
witnessed the effects of Operations MKULTRA, MHCHAOS and COINTELPRO.
Primarily because of MKULTRA, MHCHAOS and COINTELPRO, Executive Orders and
implementing regulations were published which prohibited military and CIA
domestic covert intelligence operations. Experiments on involuntary human
subjects, and the surveillance of/collection of personal information on
U.S. citizens, except under strictly regulated conditions were also
prohibited.
Congressional committees were created to oversee compliance with these
(quasi-) legal prohibitions. We have evidence that this is not being done.
Moreover, where there are laws and, in this case, no laws enacted, there
are loopholes, as well as individual and institutions who deliberately
capitalize upon the existence of loopholes. Iran-Contra is one of the more
blatant recent examples. Loopholes are also found in government resort to
"black" intelligence and weapons programs, in the use of contractors, and
in the absence of clear definitions of such terms as "national security"
and "national security risk."
Executive Orders and regulations which currently limit U.S. Intelligence
activities do not extend to non-intelligence government agencies or to
their contractors. If fact, Executive Order 12333 specifies that
government contractors do not need to know that their services support
U.S. Intelligence objectives.
In its report of July 8, 1992, the Senate Subcommittee on Oversight of
Government Management addresses the problem of tracking funds granted to
government-contracted research and development (R&D) centers. The report
notes that the problem is compounded by DoD's penchant for creating
hard-to-monitor "shell" contractors as disbursement centers for funding
programs.
Neither shell contractors nor their subcontractors are directly
accountable to Congress. Being beyond Congressional oversight, they have
the license to operate as Government surrogates in intelligence operations
about which, "officially" they know nothing.
In this context, a publication disseminated at DA's "The Soldier As A
System" symposium noted that the Army's Research and Technology Program
sponsors 42 laboratories and R & D centers, employing approximately 10,000
scientists and engineers. The annual budget of $1.3 billion is only a
small part of overall DoD research spending.
Weapons research, which includes the development and testing of
"non-lethal" weapons, is not governed by laws restricting the activities
of U.S. Intelligence agencies, though it may be presumed that these
agencies contribute to and benefit from such research.
PRELIMINARY FINDINGS
1. The technology exists for the types of harassment and experimentation
reported to us.
2. About a dozen U.S. citizens have informed us of continuing experiments
with effects which directed-energy weapons are designed to produce.
3. U.S. Government-sponsored research into the bio-effects of exposure to
microwave radiation is extensive and continuing.
4. The U.S. Government has a past record of having engaged in mind-control
experimentation; and various agencies of the Government have a record of
circumventing legal restrictions upon their activities.
5. Neither Congress nor the courts appear willing to look closely into
"black" intelligence and weapons procurement programs.
6. A number of U.S. Government agencies might have interest in testing
directed-energy technologies on U.S. citizens under
non-clinical/non-controlled circumstances -- DoD, to test ranges and
degrees of "non-lethality"; DoE, to explore "safety" limits; CIA, to test
"mind-control" capabilities, and NSA, for technological refinement.
PART II -- OVERT AND
COVERT HARASSMENT Since publication of the preceding article less than
four months ago, the association of National Security Alumni/Electronic
Surveillance Project has heard from an additional 13 individuals who
report both overt harassment and a range of symptoms which coincide with
the known effects of exposure to microwaves, electromagnetic/radio
frequency (RF) radiation and/or infrasound.
The similarity of these symptoms will be addressed in greater detail in
future Project reports. Suffice it to say, at this point, that the
physical and psychological symptoms being reported to us are consistent
with the effects which directed-energy weapons are designed to produce.
Indeed, the numerous afflictions (or "inflictions") being reported appear
to parallel standard torture "sequelae,"(1) (aftereffects).
OVERT HARASSMENT -- which obviously is meant to be observed -- may be
intended to "precondition" individuals for eventual long-term electronic
harassment. Persons terrified by unexplained overt harassment are not
likely to cope with the sudden onset of electronic harassment in any more
reasoned fashion. This phased pattern of harassment is apparent in all of
the cases now being investigated. The fact that the overt harassment
continues in these cases even after the electronic targeting commences
suggest that the objective is to maintain long-term extremes of stress.
Many of the overt harassment tactics discussed below are surfacing in
cases which (so far) have not involved discernible forms of electronic
harassment. These are cases involving so-called "whistleblowers" who,
because of their inside knowledge of certain potentially newsworthy
events, pose particular threats of embarrassment to the Government or to
government-affiliated employers. We have noticed that electronic
harassment is beginning to surface as a form of retaliation against
persons who try to assist electronic "harassees." Retaliation suggest loss
of control. Under these circumstances, we are not entirely confident that
"whistleblowers" will continue to be exempted from this type of harassment
in the long term.
The individuals now in touch with the Project describe their circumstances
as involving most, if not all, of the following overt forms of harassment:
* Sudden, bizarrely-rude treatment, isolation and acts of harassment and
vandalism by formerly friendly neighbors.
* Harassing telephone calls, which continue even after the targeted
individual obtains new, unlisted telephone numbers.
* Mail interception, theft and tampering.
* Noise campaigns.
While unrelenting harassing telephone calls might be considered in this
context, other tactics are employed. Blaring horns, whistles, sirens,
garbage disposal (run concurrently in apartment settings, for excessively
prolonged periods of time), and amplified transmissions of recorded
"general racket" have been used on a recurrent basis under circumstances
intended to persuade the individual that he or she is under surveillance.
In all of these cases, the individuals' neighbors apparently pretend to be
oblivious and/or indifferent to these sudden, continuous explosions of
noise.
Door slamming is also a popular pastime, particularly in apartment
buildings. One individual reported that, during a peak period of
harassment, the neighbor across the hall began entering and leaving his
apartment every 10 minutes, slamming his door loudly on each occasion.
This was a daily occurrence, encompassing periods of several hours, over a
period of several months. It is apparently served to trigger a
door-slamming "chain reaction" on the part of neighbors both on that floor
and on the floors immediately above and below. When our contact politely
asked her immediate neighbor to close her door more quietly, he slammed
the door in her face. Prior to commencement of this harassment, the
neighbor had apparently been quite friendly and courteous.
In another case, the primary door-slammer is an employee of Radix Systems,
Inc., Rockville, MD, a DoD contractor engaged in the "super-secret"
research and development of some type of electronic equipment.
Several individuals reported recurrent, loud, strange noises in their
ventilation systems during the preliminary stages of their harassment. One
individual complained of being recurrently awakened in the middle of the
night by the sound of wires being fed into his (independent) ventilation
system. On checking further, he found that a tubular construction had been
built into his vent system which appears to lead to the apartment
upstairs. His upstairs neighbor is employed by the Department of Justice.
A number of individuals report that occupants of upstairs and downstairs
apartments appear to follow them from room to room, tapping on the floor
or engaging in other activities which appear intended to advertise an
ongoing surveillance.
The Justice Department employee mentioned above went as far as to offer an
unsolicited apology to her downstairs neighbor for an all- night "pacing
about" in her bedroom (in the event he had happened to notice it). She
claimed to be an insomniac. The pacing-about continued during her recent
36-hour absence from the area. When her contact politely alerted her to
the fact that her apartment had apparently been entered during her
absence, she told him, in effect, to mind his own business and then
immediately complained to the building manager that he was stalking her.
She conveniently forgot to inform the building manager that she had
assiduously "courted" this individual for several months, without success;
and that she had been stealing his newspapers on a regular basis. (On one
occasion, she handed him a week's accumulation of those papers, claiming
that they had been left outside the door of another apartment. Her reason
for collecting and saving the newspapers which had not been delivered to
her directly is unknown.)
* Recurrent confrontations by unusually hostile strangers; and comments by
strangers which appear intended to evoke "paranoid" reactions.
In this context, we note that several individuals have reported
confrontations with "homeless" people who, on closer examination, were
found to be fastidiously clean, though garbed in offbeat fashion (wigs
included). The same "eccentric" confronted two of the individuals in
contact with us, at separate distant locations. He is reported as having
feigned mental illness on both occasions, and as having apparently enjoyed
creating a public scene.
* Entries into the individual's residence, during late-night hours while
he/she is sleeping, and/or during the day when the individual is
elsewhere.
In virtually all such cases, the burglars leave evidence of their visits,
such as relocating objects, or by committing petty and not- so=petty acts
of vandalism. In two cases, the burglar's "calling card" was to slaughter
caged pets, leaving the mangled carcasses inside their locked cages.
In one case, the burglar stole several pieces of correspondence and left a
packet of crack cocaine behind as a "calling card." Our contact in this
case -- an individual who has no criminal record and no history of
experimentation with drugs -- is also being harassed (stalked) by a police
officer of her community. One of his recent acts was to "frame" her with a
drug possession charge. After pulling her off the road (a frequent
pastime) and subjecting her to an illegal search (done, twice, so far), he
conveniently managed to find a glassine packet of cocaine eight feet away,
in front of his squad car. He retrieved the packet with his fingers and
then charged her with Possession. Our contact found the packet of crack
cocaine in her apartment shortly after this investigator reminded the
attorney handling her case that the police officer had smudged his only
piece of evidence with his own fingerprints. It would appear that someone
is interested in correcting that police officer's oversight.
In another case, the individual reports that a tremendous amount of money
has been stolen from a hiding place in her apartment, within hours after
she had withdrawn the money from her bank. There was no obvious signs of
entry into her apartment. The police conducted a cursory inquiry which
failed to produce evidence of a crime worthy of investigation. (This case
is an anomaly. Money is usually not stolen. Documents appear to be the
preferred objects of theft, when theft occur.)
In another case, the burglars replaced installed lightbulbs with
"exploding" bulbs, many of which were 'Made in Hungary.' The lightbulbs
are now in our possession.
* Rapidly deteriorating health, generally of a digestive nature.
In two cases of the cases reported, massive rectal bleeding accompanied
the sudden onset of sever gastrointestinal disturbances. One of these
individuals abruptly terminated the deteriorative process simply by
changing the locks on her door.
* Sleep disruption/deprivation
This is achieved by means of overt and electronic harassment. Sleep
deprivation, as a tactic, invariably surfaces when the targeted individual
begins exhibiting a strong emotional and irrational response to the other
forms of harassment.
* Vandalism of privately-owned vehicles
Vehicles invite peculiarly ferocious attacks in these harassment campaigns
-- slashed tires, smashed windows, oil drainage, oil contamination,
destruction of electronic components and batteries
(frequently involving wildly fluctuating, grounded fuel gages, often
within range of weapons research facilities and/or other microwave
emitters); and suddenly failed brakes and clutches
(possible involving anti-traction polymers, which are also in DoD's
"non-lethal" weapons arsenal). Recurrent auto thefts have also been
reported.
Two individuals reported finding their oil contaminated immediately after
having the oil changed by reputable mechanics. In one of these cases, the
oil viscosified (thickened) while the individual was driving through a
remote rural area. Her car ground to a halt. Getting the "gunk" cleaned
out of her engine proved to be an expensive ordeal. (Viscosification
agents are also lauded by the U.S. Global Strategy Council as serving
"non-lethal" strategic purposes -- a topic discussed in Part I of this
publication. Had this woman been assaulted while awaiting help in the said
isolated area, the "non-lethal" attributes of viscosfication agents might
have required redefinition.)
Most of those who have experienced these attacks on a recurring basis have
abandoned driving all together -- an objective apparently sought by their
tormentors as a means of increasing their isolation.
* Staged accidents.
The majority of those in touch with us have reported these types of
experiences. One individual, for example, was tailgated at a high rate of
speed by two vehicles, while concurrently being threatened with a gun by
one of the vehicles' occupants. Two others narrowly avoided what happened
to be deliberately attempted collisions by drivers who quickly sped away
from the scene. One avoided three attempts in four days at being run off
the road. One survived by being run off the road in two incidents within a
one-week period, which resulted in "totaling" of her two vehicles. Another
narrowly avoided being crushed into an expressway retaining wall, on four
occasions, by an off-duty metro bus, as well as, within the same time
frame, being "fried" by two suddenly-malfunctioned household appliances
which subsequently repaired themselves. It should be noted that, in some
of these cases, "accidental" deaths do occur. One individual in contact
with us reported that his mother drove off a cliff to her death, during a
period when he was researching evidence that a still-respected, high level
State Department official had passed A-bomb secrets to the Soviet
Government during World War II. The accident occurred shortly after her
car had undergone routine maintenance. She was returning from a dental
appointment when the accident occurred. Witnesses state that it appeared
that she had suddenly stepped on the accelerator before running off the
road. The accident served to terminate this person's research project.
We also look into the recent death of a woman in Lexington, MO, who was
killed when the brakes on her tractor failed. We are informed that she had
been collecting affidavits from persons who believe they are the targets
of government harassment and experimentation when her "accident" occurred.
We are also informed that these affidavits have disappeared.
Suicides might also qualify as "staged accidents, " particularly where
"plausibly deniable" government involvement has been surfaced. We are
currently looking into the recent suicide of a man in Trappe, PA, who, as
early as 1981, had asked the FBI and CIA to intervene in his case. We have
copies of that early correspondence. The man, a former U.S. Army radar
technician, had a highly technical and -- given date of his correspondence
-- "precocious" grasp of the experimental objectives apparently being
sought in his case. It is apparent from his correspondence that he had
wanted to believe that the Soviets were conducting these experiments. The
FBI and CIA, of course, did not intervene. We are informed that members of
his family have also been targets of this experimentation.
* Isolation of the individual from members of his/her family -- virtually
assured when highly focused forms of electronic harassment commence.
The exception to this is when elderly parents and young children in the
family become targets for apparent purposes of intimidation. This
situation has been reported in eight of our cases, to date.
One individual (driven to extremes of stress by ongoing electronic
harassment focusing on her children) killed one child in an effort to
protect her from further pain.(2) It appears that lasers were being used
in this individual's case. The targeting intensified after she called the
Soviet Embassy to report the harassment, which she believed to be U.S.
Government-sponsored. It became even more deadly when, in a further show
of defiance, she then called the representative of the Iraqi Government to
portray the U.S. Government's war in the Middle East as "hypocritical."
She is now hospitalized in a midwestern facility, where, apparently, the
experimentation is now continuing.
(That psychiatric facility is in a State where a disproportionate number
of complaints of electronic harassment are beginning to surface. It is
also within range of a U.S. Air Force base which houses a "super secret"
research facility. We are currently looking into information that spouses
and children of persons employed on that USAF base may be the targets of
involuntary experimentation involving direct-energy weapons technologies.)
Another individual, during a telephone conversation, was told by an
employee of a local power company that, if she valued the lives of her
children, she would drop her public opposition to the company's
installation of high power lines. Since receiving that threat, the
individual's 11-year-old daughter has been reduced to extremes of pain,
resulting in her recurrent hospitalization for treatment of illnesses
which cannot be diagnosed. It is also apparent to this individual that her
three-year-old son is on the receiving end of externally-induced auditory
input. (DoE figures prominently in this case.)
* Progressive financial impoverishment, brought on by termination of the
individual's employment, and compounded by expenses associated with the
harassment.
The majority of those now in contact with the Project -- educated,
white-collar professionals -- have lost their jobs. Termination of
employment in many of these cases involved prefatory harassment by the
employer and co-workers, which coincided with the other overt forms of
harassment discussed above.
The overt harassment tactics are being described as recurrent, non-
sequential and overlapping. As noted above, the overt harassment continues
even after the electronic harassment commences.
FAILURE OF
"ESTABLISHMENT" SUPPORT SYSTEMS Those individuals who have tried to
resolve their respective situations through resort to "establishment"
channels have invariably encountered the following:
* Apathy, indifference and/or professed helplessness on the part of
members of Congress and state legislators.
* Dismissal and/or attempted discrediting by psychiatrists who refuse to
include the terms, "government harassment," "mind-control experimentation"
and "torture" in their vocabulary.
Several individuals, thinking the psychiatrists might help to alleviate
the extreme stress associated with their harassment, and accorded
"treatment" which clearly pointed to corporation between their
psychiatrists and members of the U.S. Intelligence community. One such
psychiatrist, in fact, bragged about being a member of the U.S.
Intelligence "inner circle," informing our contact that her harassment was
a "Pavlovian Experiment," intended to "break" her.
* Lack of interest, courage and/or competency in legal circles.
Few of those in contact with us have been able to acquire legal assistance
-- not helped by their straitened financial circumstances. Most have found
that few attorneys are willing to risk their careers by pursuing cases
involving what is believed to be government-sponsored harassment or
experimentation.
A few attorneys reportedly engaged in egregious violations of codes of
professional conduct, in what appear to have been deliberate efforts at
sabotaging our contacts' cases. Subsequent attempts by two individuals at
obtaining legal redress were met with stonewalling, obstruction, and
high-level denials of wrongdoing.
* Refusal of the mass media to address this topic, except in those cases
where suspected experimentees have been driven to committing murder or
suicide.
Such cases (particularly where an individual has claimed to be a victim of
CIA-directed mind-control involving auditory input) are treated by the
press as "curiosities." Am example of this is the individual who shot a
Navy officer outside the Pentagon in mid-
1991.(3) He claimed to be a victim of CIA mind control, involving auditory
input. According to the press, "he worried 'about being run over by
trains'..." (ref. incident described in following paragraph). He is now
permanently residing in a psychiatric facility. He, being
institutionalized, and others in the preliminary stages of his predicament
are no longer of interest to the media.
Another recent case which received short-lived press attention(4) involved
a woman diagnosed as having "suffered from periods of confusion" who
climbed over a fence onto a railroad track and walked into an oncoming
train. Because the incident occurred in a community in which an unusually
large number of mind-control experiments have been reported, we are
looking into the situation. The woman was reportedly "under a physician's
care" because of her "periods of confusion." A family member described the
physician to this investigator as "a psychiatrist." We find that the
alleged "psychiatrist" is a General Practitioner, otherwise
non-accredited, practicing out of his home. We find also that the suicide
may have been witnessed under peculiarly-timed circumstances by an alleged
"homeless" person who has since disappeared. Needless to say, our interest
has been whetted.
* Refusal and/or inability of local police to intervene.
The tendency of local police is to dismiss an individual's complaints of
government harassment as the ravings of a "fruitcake." In one case,
discussed above, it is apparent that one police officer is actively
cooperating in the harassment. Some police agencies, while acknowledging
the reality of the situation, hesitate to intervene in cases involving
what they believe to be U.S. Intelligence. On a few occasions, certain
police officials did attempt to intervene, based on what they perceived to
be evidence of a systematic harassment/illegal surveillance campaign.
Absent a clear mandate to prosecute "stalkers" acting under the aegis of
U.S. Intelligence, the police obviously had their hands tied.
* Refusal of the FBI to intervene in any of the cases brought to our
attention thus far.
FBI spokesmen do acknowledge that they have received a large number of
requests for assistance from "mentally disturbed persons" who believe that
they are being "zapped by radio waves" and/or "are hearing voices..."
"from Mars, that is."
In one case, an FBI spokesman reacted in a angry, defensive and bizarre
fashion when our contact briefly alluded to PROJECT SLAMMER as possibly
being related to her surveillance. (PROJECT SLAMMER is a CIA-funded study,
managed by CIA and FBI behavioral scientist, which explores the "mental
make-up" of alleged security risks, along with their family members and
close associates. Participants in PROJECT SLAMMER include NSA, DIA, and
Army, Navy and Air Force Intelligence.)
Until PROJECT SLAMMER was mentioned, the FBI spokesman's approach in this
case was to politely and redundantly explain that the law, as currently
constructed, prevents the FBI's intervening in this individual's case.
What she briefly pointed out that the surveillance activities might fall
under the purview of PROJECT SLAMMER, the spokesman's response was to
abruptly and angrily declaim, "You don't know who is conducting that
surveillance! You don't know if that is a state police surveillance!...or
a local police surveillance! It could be a totally unrelated operation!
You don't know who is conducting that surveillance! [etc., etc.]!"
It was apparent from that response that the FBI was at least acknowledging
the existence of a surveillance, if in somewhat emotional fashion. The
individual in question subsequently furnished acquired evidence to the
local police, who made it clear that they are no participants in the
surveillance which, based on the evidence, pointedly suggest that our
contact is the target.
* Refusal of inability of the ACLU and Amnesty International to intervene.
Both organizations acknowledge receiving many complaints from persons
claiming to be the targets of some type of electronic harassment. An ACLU
spokes-woman characterized the complaints as appearing to be rational,
except in a few cases. The complaints are not being investigated, she
said, because of "limited resources." We have to wonder, of course, why
the ACLU could recently find resources to defend the rights of prostitutes
and the Ku Klux Klan, yet remains incapable of intervening in cases such
as we are now pursuing.
Amnesty International recently informed one of our contacts that they
could not intervene in her case because their focus is on the U.S.
Government's treatment of prison inmates. While incarceration does appear
to be one sought-for objective in this harassment/mind control
experiments, we would like to think that protection by such organizations
as Amnesty International can be achieved beforehand.
RELATED COVERT METHODOLOGIES The persons engaged in this harassment tend
to become careless, possibly the result of arrogance born of an assumption
that nobody can stop them. "Harassees" who have noted this carelessness
have furnished us with the following insights into the covert side of
these harassment activities.
* Impersonation of military officers.
One individual found that her next-door neighbor had claimed to be a
military intelligence officer, assigned to a space technology unit in
California, on year-long "TDY" (temporary duty) in the individual's
apartment building. It is subsequently determined that this alleged
officer is not in fact a member of the U.S. Armed Forces; and that he had
used this bogus status to acquire information from a major defense
contractor. Our contact is certain that this person's apartment was used
as a base of harassment operations.
* Use of concealment devices, and emitters detected to date.
Several individuals and supportive associates report having seen some of
the electronic devices being used in these harassment campaigns.
One saw electronic equipment concealed inside a false-front upright piano
being moved out of her apartment building. She had previously noted that
all of her surrounding neighbors had identical upright pianos in their
apartments, not one of which was ever played.
Other suspected participants in the harassment may be concealing devices
in oversized stereo speakers, measuring approximately 5' in height x
3'x3'. Several of our contacts have noted the presence of such speakers in
adjacent dwellings.
One individual was told by a resident of her building that her upstairs
neighbor has "microwave ovens" in his bedroom and living room, but none in
the kitchen.
Another individual, while standing outside, looked in her neighbor's
window to find that her bedroom appeared to be the target of a
gray-colored, elongated box-like device, measuring approximately 1' in
length x 5" in height (side view). A large, black-framed lens protruded
from the end facing her window. The electrical cord, if any, was not
visible from that vantage point. The equipment was being operated by a
stranger in a three-piece suit, who appeared to be quite startled to find
that he was being observed.
Another was given strong reason to believe that portable emitters are
being concealed in oversized, extremely heavy, sometimes expandable
"briefcases" for use in places of public assembly, such as meeting halls,
auditoriums and restaurants. Smaller varieties are apparently being used
on aircraft.
On a 3-hour flight, our contact noticed that the man sitting next to her
seemed peculiarly intent on keeping the attaché case on his lap propped
open with his fingertips, while he gazed "blankly" into the distance
during the entire flight. She believed that she was being electronically
harassed while on a flight (a common complaint, in most of these cases now
being investigated).
Our contact reports that, when they prepared to land, the man opened his
attaché case to hastily check his contents, thus disclosing the presence
of a raised, built-in "concealment device" covering the entire bottom
surface of the attaché case. The low- slung, lift-off cover did not appear
to be capable of concealing a laptop computer. At one point during the
flight -- apparently aware that his "reverie" was inviting attention, --
the man devoted approximately ten minutes to scribbling assorted entries
on a sheet of lined paper, which he had placed on top of the briefcase two
hours previously. He devoted roughly ten minutes to the effort (obviously
preferring a pen to a laptop computer). His attaché case remained ajar
during this process.(5)
One individual reports that mobile emitters may be installed in certain
oversized, non-attributed medical emergency vehicles, possibly for the
eventual use in civil disturbances. Her unsuccessful attempts at following
the "medical emergency" vehicle which had surfaced in her case ended with
a high-speed chase.
The phony military intelligence officer, when recently moving out of our
contact's apartment building, was found to possess a device which
resembles an oversized microwave oven, measuring approximately 4' in width
x 2' in height x 2 1/2' in depth. A subsequent examination of his
apartment revealed that he had tapped numerous additional lines into
existing, in-house telephone and TV cables; and that he had gone to great
pains to conceal a major excavation into one wall abutting the "harassee's."
Judging from photographs taken immediately after this person's departure,
the wiring suggests that he was hooked by modem into a computer network,
and at least of some of his electronic equipment was situated in a large
walk-in closet, again abutting the "harassee's."
When the alleged officer moved out, his equipment (except for the
oversized "microwave oven") was packaged in boxes identifying the contents
only as stereo components. During his year-long residency in this
building, no sounds emanated from his apartment to indicate use of this
"stereo" equipment.
* Use of modified license plates and vehicle look-alikes.
Some individuals have noted that their neighbors' vehicles are
periodically replaced (during peak periods of harassment) by others which
qualify as "rough look-alikes." These tags on the latter closely resemble
those on the homeowners' vehicles, with a difference being noted in only
one digit or one letter. These modified plates appear to have been
acquired through State DMV channels, thus suggesting government / intelligence
agency involvement.
In one case, where the individual has obtained police assistance, tracking
of one plate surfaced evidence of a drug connection. The plate rapidly
disappeared from the vehicle in question, to be replaced by another, again
bearing a one-letter modification.
* Use of neighbors' residences as bases of operation and training.
One individual recently saw a team of "technicians" in the house behind
hers -- a consequence of the team's failure to close the curtains and/or
dim the lights when puttering around the kitchen at 5:00 in the morning.
The three men (strangers to this individual, all stripped down to their
T-shirts) behaved as if they were unaware that they were being watched.
Their observer had long suspected that this house was being used as a base
of electronic harassment operations. The harassment had been going on
throughout the night.
To provoke a response from these men, the individual eventually commented
aloud on their activities. They responded immediately by turning the
lights off and switching to the use of flashlights. Why they failed to
close the curtain is unknown.
This individual is working with the police in a effort at ending this
surveillance and harassment, with mixed results.
Another individual,
paying a surprise visit to the apartment upstairs, overheard one of her
own telephone conversations being played on a tape recorder inside that
apartment. Lacking both a legitimate pretext to enter the apartment and
the support of the building's management personnel and/or the police, she
was prevented from pursuing this further. Her upstairs neighbor is
purportedly employed by Stanford University Hospital, in Stanford, CA.
The target of surveillance and harassment in this case is still also
trying to recover from the effects of exposure to potentially lethal doses
of radiation, administered in the 1970's by a dangerously "incompetent"
dentist. This might explain the involvement of alleged Stanford University
Hospital personnel in her situation.
The government is on record as having experimented on unwitting U.S.
citizens with radioactive materials during the 1970's (and earlier).(6)
The House Subcommittee on Energy and Commerce based their investigation
into this matter on a 30-year accumulation of documents maintained by the
Department of Energy. Under the circumstances, it will come as no surprise
if it is ultimately found that DoE has been involved in this woman's
surveillance and harassment.
Another individual
paid a surprise visit to the apartment immediately below hers, in the
attempt to identify the source of tremendous racket in her ventilation
system. Standing outside the door, she could hear an individual moving
around, a short distance from the door. She also heard the sound of
rustling paper and the steady, sonar-like "pinging" of some type of
electronic device. In response to her repeated knockings on the door, the
person inside simply stopped moving about. The sound of rustling paper
(perhaps a printout of some type) and the steady "...pin-ng!...pin-ng!"
sound continued. The occupant of this apartment resumed moving about only
after it was (incorrectly) believed that our contact had departed the
area. Typically, this situation could not be pursued further.
All of those who
live in apartment buildings report unusual patterns of occupancy in the
apartments surrounding their own; i.e., upstairs, downstairs and on all
sides. They have become quite convinced -- if only because of the highly
focused nature of the systems being experienced -- that these surrounding
apartments are being used as bases of operation. Perhaps this encirclement
facilities studies of holographic human telemetries; or perhaps it is
intended to increase the prospect of brain entrainment by electronic means
("entrainment" being one published objective sought in mind control
experiments).(7)
In examining this situation more closely, a number of individuals have
found that surrounding apartments are either permanently vacant, for
unknown reasons, or that they have been "sub-let" by the original
occupants to persons who are purportedly unknown to the buildings'
management personnel. In one case, the surrounding renters all list two
residences in the local telephone book. No one lives in the apartment
building in question, though the address is identified as one of the
renters' places of residence. One individual suspects that the original
occupants of apartments surrounding hers have been simply relocated to
other apartments in the same (large) building. Another suspects that an
adjacent apartment, which has been permanently rented to the U.S.
Government for use by "visitors" is also being used as a base of
operations.
One individual found that an immediate neighbor's housemate has the same
(unusual) name of a university professor who has engaged in extensive
research on behalf of the government, studying the bioeffects of exposure
to microwave radiation.
* Use of informants/agents provocateurs, frequently members of the
opposite sex.
As noted in the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Interior and
Insular Affair's draft report, Alyeska Pipeline Service Company Covert
Operation (July 1992), the Wackenhut Corporation's Special Investigations
Division adopted this tactic when pursuing Alyeska's critics.
A number of individuals in touch with us report a range of experiences
with new "friends" who -- apparently posing as confidants -- used acquired
personalia to abruptly end these "friendships" under deliberately
degrading and humiliating circumstances. When taken in the context of
ongoing surveillance and harassment, these exercises appear intended to
heighten emotional trauma, perhaps to provoke an uncontrolled response
and/or to enforce isolation.
* Misuse of covert intelligence personnel (possible former case officers).
One individual while under contract to the U.S. Government, properly
reported what he believed to be an approach by a hostile intelligence
service. Within a few weeks, alleged U.S. Intelligence officers contacted
this individual. In addition to questioning him about his background,
these alleged intelligence officers asked that he keep in constant contact
with them, particularly when planning to travel.
It soon became apparent that the alleged intelligence officers were intent
only on forcing this individual to report to them as directed, and to
account for his activities. He was not asked to assist the U.S. Government
in any form of intelligence operation; he was not asked to execute any
form of secrecy affirmation statement acknowledging the classified nature
of these meetings; nor was he told why these meetings -- involving a total
of seven alleged case officers -- were necessary.
When he began to balk at a continuation of this process, one of his
"handlers" conveyed a threat, suggesting that his continued compliance
might be "enforced." Finally, when this individual adamantly refused to
corporate further, massive overt harassment commenced and is currently
ongoing.
The operation (clearly intended to bully this individual into submissive
compliance for purposes which are still unknown) involved crude tactics
formerly prized by the KGB.
Whether or not legitimate U.S. Intelligence case officers were involved in
this activity remains to be determined. Some private firms retain former
U.S. Intelligence case officers for contracting out as "security
specialist." The founder and CEO of one such firm
(Gerald P. Burke, The Parvus Company, Silver Spring, MD) has informed us
that the activities of contract case officers are neither monitored nor
subjected to formal restraint.
* Use of psychotropic drugs by cooperative physicians.
Shortly after resigning from the CIA, one of our contacts underwent a
range of experiences which suggested that she had been massively drugged.
One of the alleged perpetrators, whom we have met, alternately claims to
be employed by NASA and/or by a firm in Miami, handling, "microwave
equipment." NASA has no record of this person under the name furnished.
The "experimentee" ultimately sought the assistance of a psychiatrist,
whom her parents had located as a referral. The psychiatrist treated her
reported "flashbacks" by immediately placing her on a regimen of Stelazine,
which quickly aggravated her condition. He also made comments to this
individual which suggested that he had a foreknowledge of her situation,
and that he was cooperating with U.S. Intelligence. On one occasion the
psychiatrist intimated that our contact might be employable as an
assassin; and he repeatedly urged her to move to Great Britain where, he
said, she would be put in touch with an unidentified Member of Parliament.
Interestingly, he had a tremendous computer system in his office suite,
which he explained as being connected by modem into a national level
system which, in turn, connected to private residences. When showing her
this equipment, the psychiatrist informed our contact that she had been
"CAT scanned," pointing out that she was the subject of a vast series of
"A's" and "B's" being printed out by one of the many terminals at his
disposal.
Our contact also found out that this psychiatrist kept a military uniform
in his closet which bore the rank and insignia of a three- star general.
The individual ultimately sought psychiatric support elsewhere. Her new
psychiatrist, formerly employed by DoD, immediately put her on a regimen
of Haladol Decanoate, Klonopin and Benzatropine. The combined effect of
these drugs was loss of memory and a state of mind which, under other
circumstances, might be diagnosed as Depersonalization or Dissociative
Disorder. All three drugs proved to be highly addictive. Our contact,
since severing contact which this psychiatrist as well, has finally
successfully overcome the addiction.
Another individual
-- the one whose psychiatrist had informed her of her role in a "Pavlovian
Experiment" -- was subjected to attempted drugging by Trazodone, one of
the strongest sedatives on the market. The psychiatrist in question kept
no record of the individual's outpatient visits, nor of her Trazodone
prescriptions. Being unaware that the individual was not adhering to his
regimen, the psychiatrist urged her rapidly to increase her dosage,
renewing her 30-day prescription after a period of only 11 days.
Though aware of her heart condition, he failed to monitor her condition,
dismissing her complaints of (electronically-induced) pains in her heart
as inconsequential. Trazodone is know to aggravate heart conditions.
Perhaps the intent was to have this individual succumb to a "heart attack"
as the result of "imagined" government harassment. Neither the appropriate
psychiatric society nor the FBI would touch this case.
Another individual
(a clear target of retaliation) sought medical assistance to counter
sudden massive headaches and recurrent attacks of vomiting -- effects
which can be produced by infrasound. The physician to whom she was
referred (an alleged specialist in Internal Medicine) placed her on a
combination of Compazine and Xanax, prescribing dosages which the
Physicians' Desk Reference warns against.
Compazine, in addition to being an anti-emetic, is used in the treatment
of psychotic disorders. It can also cause dyskinesia, an irreversible
syndrome involving loss of motor control. Xanax is known to induce
vomiting. Both drugs can lead to dependence and a worsening of the
patient's condition. The effects of all such drugs, in fact, can be
mutated in high-energy fields, thus increasing the likelihood of adverse
reactions.
We have recently found that this prescribing "physician" is not licensed
to practice medicine in the State in which she has been practicing since
at least 1989.
Our contact, being concerned about the long-term effects of Xanax and
Compazine, consulted another physician in the same office. The physician
immediately prescribed Prozac, failing to concurrently recommend that her
patient discontinue the Xanax and Compazine prescriptions. When our
contact refused to take any psychotropic drugs, the doctor became upset
and asked, "Don't you want to get well?"
This second physician is a licensed practitioner in Internal Medicine,
with no background in Psychiatry. We also found that she apparently refers
her patients to yet a third physician in the office who claims to be a
psychiatrist. She, too, is licensed to practice Internal Medicine, only.
Her receptionist described this third physician as having a psychiatric
"sub-specialty," ... "as an internist." The receptionist also informed us
that this internist "is treating a number of psychiatric patients."
On pursuing this further, we find that these physicians are in a small
"medicine group" which is not listed by specialty in standard regional
telephone directories. The group bears the same name as one of the CIA's
most infamous recruited physicians (perhaps best described as "the Mengele
of MKULTRA").
The doctor's offices are located in a bank building, which, we have found,
is a favored hiding place for security-oriented business and government
agencies. Two computer firms, co-located with an attorney who represents
"Island Resort Development, Ltd.," are situated immediately beneath the
doctors' offices. The prospect of finding island resort developments
within 500 miles of this attorney's office is limited.
Our contact, being apprised of these findings, is seeking medical help
elsewhere.
In two of our cases,
urologist took it upon themselves to play the role of "psychiatrist";
i.e., they rendered psychiatric diagnoses and prescribed psychotropic
drugs. One of these urologist, employed by The Mayo Clinic in Rochester,
MN, prescribed Haldol, informing our contact that he perceived her to be
"psychotic." His efforts at getting a Clinic psychiatrist to confirm this
diagnosis were unsuccessful. The psychiatrist, apparently a rare
individual who subscribes to codes of medical ethics, found nothing wrong
with this woman, even given the nature of her complaints. The urologist's
response to this was to issue his own Haldol prescription. Sensing that
something was amiss, the woman refused to have the prescription filled.
Yet another
individual ended up in the hands of a psychiatrist who, as a purported
means of ending the stress associated with her harassment, offered to put
her under hypnosis. She described the hypnotic state as "equivalent to
floating" and (based on her overall experiences with this physician) has
not ruled out the possibility that drugs may have been surreptitiously
administered. The psychiatrist claimed to be interested in psychic
phenomena and demonstrated an apparently remarkable ability to read the
individual's mind.
While in her "hypnotic state, the individual felt like a sharp, painful
pressure inside her nose, as if something were being shoved up her
nostrils to the sinus cavities. She awoke to find blood pouring from her
nostrils. The psychiatrist casually dismissed this as owing to a probable
cold.
Shortly after the experience, the individual began to hear loud tones in
her head, followed in due coarse by auditory input. Brain scans have
failed to yield evidence of an implant device. (We have recommended that
she undergo a scan by means of a suitably adapted non-linear junction
detector, as a preliminary.) Suffice to say, this individual has severed
contact with the psychiatrist and is continuing to cope with the ongoing
overt electronic harassment by other non-medical means.
* Use of medical implant devices.
The situation just described is not our first encounter with the apparent
use of medical implant devices in these harassment/mind- control cases.
Another of our contacts began receiving auditory input roughly 15 years
after she had a 4 mm. cochlear implants placed in her ears. The "voices"
claimed to be affiliated with the CIA and, among other things, expressed
intentions of running this woman as an agent in denied areas by
"piggybacking" their audio transmissions onto standard FM frequencies to
avoid detection.
We have been unable to locate the surgeon who implanted these devices,
though we do have a copy of his operative reports. A recent CAT scan of
this individual failed to disclose the presence of the cochlear implants.
Several years ago, the individual (now a psychologist) applied for a
position with the CIA. She was interviewed by four Langley- based,
purported psychologist, who allegedly informed her that her job would
involve the assessments of certain criminals for purposes of weighing
their purposes for loyalty to this agency.
During these interviews, she was told to read several books by such
persons as Philip Agee, Stansfield Turner and Ralph McGehee, all of whom
were unknown to her. The alleged psychologist claimed that these authors
had described the CIA "as it really is." Our contact was not asked to
execute a security affirmation statement acknowledging the classified
nature of these proceedings.
The unconventional manner of this interview process suggested that this
individual was being toyed with, for reason which remain to be determined.
She did not get the job and in fact more recently lost her job with a
state penitentiary. She was fired on the recommendation of the prison's
psychiatrist, because of her insistence that she is receiving auditory
input from the CIA personnel who persist in feeding her classified
information.
Interestingly, though this individual was deemed unfit to function as a
psychologist in the penitentiary system, the State rehired her, assigning
her to a mental health facility where, apparently, she is to develop a
behavioral modification program for retarded adults with a diagnosed
mental illness.
This individual claimed to be receiving and responding to
externally-induced auditory "advice" while working with prison inmates. It
may be presumed that the process will continue. Under the circumstances,
we have to wonder if this case qualifies as a benchmark in mind-control
experimentation; i.e., employment of a mind-controlled psychologist to run
the equivalent of mind-control experiments on mentally-ill retarded
adults. We will continue to monitor this situation.
The individual we
previously identified as having challenged a local power company also
appears to have ben "tagged" by some type of implant device. During a
recent symposium, she was approached by a man whose business card
identifies him as "Program Manager, Electromagnetic Radiation Division,"
DoE. His approach was suitably sympathetic. Our contact ultimately
accepted this man's invitation to continue discussing their common ranges
of interest in his hotel room. During this meeting, she accepted the offer
of a drink, blacked out after consuming it, and woke up four hours later,
still in this man's hotel room, to find that the back of her ear had been
punctured and was bleeding. There was no evidence of sexual assault. The
man glibly evaded this woman's request for an explanation. She has since
found two adjacent puncture marks behind her ear, which are not healing
properly, and between which she can feel the presence of a "wire"
measuring approximately 1/3" in length. We are pursuing this further.
The said DoE Project Manager has more recently initiated contact with yet
another activist in touch with this Association. His call was unsolicited.
He apparently wanted to know to know if this woman would be attending an
upcoming conference. We have warned the individual to avoid any form of
private meeting with the said Project Manager.
To date, we are
aware of three cases involving clandestine behavior on the part of alleged
DoE employees. The CIA figures prominently (if peculiarly) in the majority
of the other cases. Two of those have been discussed above.
I another, also involving auditory input, the individual is certain that
the current Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) participated in the
"voice transmission" process on at least one occasion. She claims to have
recognized his voice. When she commented aloud on the DCI's perceived
involvement in this experimentation, the "voice" responded with stuttered
and stammered denials. We are told that this particular "voice" has not
been heard from since.
In yet another case
involving auditory input, the individual has allegedly been informed by
her "voices" that the technologies being used against her were stolen from
the CIA by a maverick employee, whose group is not targeting her from a
distance of 2,000 miles. She reported this to the DCI's office and was
allegedly informed by the Deputy DCI that she will be awarded millions of
dollars if she can produce the equipment and any of the personnel involved
in her harassment.
One usually-candid CIA spokesman also allegedly informed this individual
that, "while the CIA does not deny having this equipment," they "do not
use it in this country." Perhaps this explains why a number of our
contacts have also been electronically harassed while traveling overseas.
This woman has also been repeatedly assured by CIA DDS (security)
personnel of the Agency's sincere concern for her welfare. During a recent
telephone conversation with that Office, we confirmed that she is indeed
known to the CIA. Based on this, we asked that the Agency "put its money
where its mouth is," so to speak, by conducting a long-term electronic
sweep of this individual's premises. That was two months ago. No sweep has
been conducted, though CIA spokesmen continue to "sympathize" with her
predicament.
Another individual,
a target of harassment and experimentation since 1952 (apparently singled
out because of his student activism while at Penn State University) began
hearing "voices" after having most of his teeth capped. He has been more
recently been informed by his "handlers" that implanted devices are no
longer used for purposes of inducing auditory input. No explanation was
offered. He was quite visibly surprised when informed by this investigator
that auditory input can be achieved solely by means of pulsed microwave
audiograms (discussed in Part I of this report).
The individual's "handlers" allegedly have also stated that their
experiments on U.S. citizens are in pursuit of a variety of objectives;
viz.,
(1) develop an
effective means for creating a perfect, "robotized" soldier;
(2) alter individual sexual performances, such as by turning heterosexuals
into homosexuals (they allegedly claim to be having "difficulties"
reversing the process): and
(3) enhance and destroy levels of academic achievement, at will, such as
by degrading the performance of otherwise brilliant students, and by
drastically improving the performance of poor students.
Given the technology at the government's disposal and a predisposition of
the part of certain governmental agencies to "play God" in experimental
fashion with citizens' lives, these purported projects do not come across
as being totally far-fetched.
Another case
involves a woman whose experiences suggest that she, too, is an MKULTRA
experimentee being kept on the books, so to speak. The woman, apparently a
"pet" experimentee, found herself being introduced to a wide array of
prominent individuals whose connections with the CIA she believed to be
quite apparent. One of those she states, was Robert Jay Lifton, a
well-known author and expert on brainwashing, whose books include "The
Nazi Doctors: Medical Killing and the Psychology of Genocide" (Basic
Books,
1986).
Her experiences included a voluntary ("referral") admission to Hollywood
Hospital, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in 1973, during an era when
MKULTRA experiments at the Alan Memorial Institute, McGill University,
Montreal, Canada, were only beginning to capture the attention of the U.S.
Senate.(8)
More recently, in 1990, she was transported to New York University's
Cameron Medical Center, in Westchester, NY (under circumstance which
qualify as an abduction), where she was forcibly wrestled to the ground by
approximately six Center staffers and forcibly confined for a period of
approximately three weeks. She was neither psychiatrically counseled nor
formally tested while in that facility. The psychiatrists assigned to her
case appeared more intent on forcing her to take a combination of
neuroleptic drugs, to include Haldol, Navane, and Cogentin. (Haldol and
Navane can cause tardive dyskinesia.) She resisted those attempts.
A court ultimately ordered this woman released from the Center,
stipulating that she was not to be administered drugs. On subsequently
acquiring her medical records, under conditions which prevented censoring
or doctoring those records, she found that her psychiatrists had planned
to inject her with drugs (in defiance of the court order) on the day of
her release. As luck would have it, she was released a day early.
The woman states that she has met Budd Hopkins, of the Intruders
Foundation, and that she had a long-term, confiding relationship with John
E. Mack, Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, and the founding
Director of the Center for Psychological Studies in the Nuclear Age
(previously named, Research Program for the Study of Human Continuity;
and, still previously, rumored to have cooperated with the CIA in studies
of "human ecology").
At one point in their relationship, Professor Mack apparently accompanied
this woman to a "support group" meeting of UFO abductees, who, she
observed bemusedly, "spent their time comparing [extra-terrestrially]
implanted devices." Professor Mack is on record as promoting the
perception that UFO abductions are legitimate.(9)
We frankly doubt that extraterrestrials who have a means to commute inter-galactically
would stoop to implanting comparatively [primitive] devices in human
beings. However, should it be proved that the psychiatrist, surgeon and
DoE Project Manager above are extraterrestrials posing as humans, we will
be happy to weigh that information. If it is similarly established to the
vehicular "abduction" of the woman discussed above was the work of an
extraterrestrial named Kaplan, who was posing as a human with Cornell
Medical Center connections, we will be happy to ponder that as well.
In the meantime, it would seem reasonable that the government would want
the public to believe that extraterrestrial visitations are on the
upswing. Mind-altering drugs, externally-induced auditory input,
holographic projections (also a DoD capability),(10) appropriately focused
directed-energy targeting, device implantations, special effects and
abductions are all within this government's capabilities and can be used
for purposes of creating illusions of UFO experiences. Persons not
cognizant of this might be more inclined to fall for the UFO mythologies
now being officially "legitimized."
***
Other cases, possibly involving U.S. Navy Intelligence, NSA, the Drug
Enforcement Agency (DEA) and, peripherally, members of the former Soviet
Bloc intelligence services will be discussed in further reports.
HARASSMENT
OBJECTIVES In his book, Psychiatry and the CIA: Victims of Mind
Control, Dr. Harvey Weinstein quotes the following passage from a
book entitled, A battle for the Mind: A Physiology in Conversion and
Brainwashing, by William Sergeant (Greenwood Press, Westport, CT,
1957):
"By increasing the prolong stress in various ways, or inducing physical
debilitation, a more thorough alteration of the person's thinking process
may be achieved. ...If the stress or physical debilitation, or both, are
carried one stage further, it may happen that patterns of thought and
behavior, especially those of recent acquisition, become disrupted. New
patterns can then be substituted, or suppressed patterns allowed to
reassert themselves; or the subject might begin to think or act in ways
precisely contradict his former ones.
"'...If a complete sudden collapse can be produced by prolonging or
intensifying emotional stress, the cortical slate may be wiped clean
temporarily of its more recently implanted patterns of behavior, perhaps
allowing others to be substituted more easily.'"
Dr. Weinstein then comments: "The parallel with [Dr. Ewen] Cameron's
theory of differential amnesia is striking, and the relationship to
brainwashing is abundantly clear."(11) Dr. Cameron, employed by McGill
University's Allan Memorial Institute in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, between
1943 and 1964, conducted brainwashing experiments upon select,
non-volunteer psychiatric patients on behalf of the CIA. Dr. Weinstein's
father was one of Cameron's victims.
Sergeant's theorems and Cameron's associated experimental findings appear
to be the driving force behind the harassment and experimentation now
being reported to this Association. All of these individuals are being
subjected to a series of overlapping circumstances which apparently are
meant to induce and sustain long-term extremes of stress. All of these
individuals have been effectively isolated. Unethical psychiatrists and
physicians are involved in the majority of these cases. Mind-altering
prescription drugs are being used for clearly non-therapeutic purposes.
Evidence of LSD use is also beginning to surface (one of Cameron's favored
mind-altering substances). And "psychic driving" techniques -- Cameron's
pet brainwashing method -- are involved in all these cases, to a much
greater and more potentially effective degree where auditory input is
involved.
The long-term objectives of these harassment and experimentation campaigns
appear to be quite fundamental; viz.,
(1) induce a sense of perverted "loyalty" toward the very agencies engaged
in the individual's harassment, to confuse his or her priorities where the
possibility of obtaining legal redress might be concerned;
(2) redirect the targeted individual's feelings of hopelessness, anger and
frustration toward racial and ethnic groups, and toward select, prominent
political figures, to include the President of the United States; and
(3) force the individual to commit an act of violence, whether suicide or
murder, under conditions which he can be plausibly denied by the
government.
An operation's ultimate success apparently hangs on this latter objective.
We have successfully obstructed this process in a number of cases now
being investigated.
