A declassified CIA document [8] "Hypnotic Experiment and Research, 10 February 1954" describes a
simulation of relevance to the creation of unsuspecting assassins: "Miss [deleted] was instructed
(having previously expressed a fear of firearms in any manner) that she would use every method at
her disposal to awaken Miss [deleted] (now in a deep hypnotic sleep) and failing this, she would get
a pistol nearby and fire it at Miss [deleted]. She was instructed that her rage would be so great that
she would not hesitate to "kill" [deleted] for failing to awaken. Miss [deleted] carried out these ideas
to the letter including firing the (unloaded) gun at [deleted] and then proceeding to fall into a deep
sleep. Complete amnesia for the entire sequence was awakened and expressed. Miss [deleted] was
again handed the gun, which she refused (in an awakened state) to pick up or accept from the
operator. She expressed absolute denial that the foregoing sequence had occurred."
One of the areas was mind control. Under the protection of 'national security,' many other divisions
of the government also took part in the study of this area. The CIA originated its first program in
1950 under the name BLUEBIRD, which in 1951, after Britain and Canada had been contained, was
changed to ARTICHOKE. MKULTRA officially commenced in 1953. Some of its programs remained
active under MKSEARCH into the 1970s, although it was closed in 1964. In 1973 CIA Director
Richard Helms ordered the destruction of any MKULTRA records. [9] MC 10, 17
Diligent usage of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) helps to project light on the advances
which have been made in controlling the way people think and act. In 1977, through a FOIA request,
16,000 pages of files were found, held as part of the Agency the. of 's financial That's how much of
this information was pieced together. The FOIA permits the most humble citizen to demand the
disclosure of documents, although inevitably some will be not released or heavily censored
whatsoever. MC 5 NB, xvi, xvii
Necessarily, nevertheless, it's an incomplete picture. Most of the significant details were
conveniently destroyed under orders of CIA Director Helms to conceal wrongdoing. [10] What the
mind accountants are doing and were may be just hinted at in a memo footnote or in the memoirs of
a retired researcher. However, there's more than enough here to demonstrate that secret new
techniques are being manipulated that are no longer in the domain of science fiction. We must all be
conscious of this threat, so that individuals who want to take liberties with our freedom to think, and
with democracy, are discouraged. MC 6, NB xvii For more, just click here.
The CIA Mind Control Projects.
Project BLUEBIRD was accepted by the director of the CIA on April 20, 1950. In a 1951 memo, [11]
Bluebird states that practical research was to be conducted to include these specific problems:
Can we create by post-H [hypnotic] control an activity contrary to an individual's fundamental moral
principles?
Can we in a matter of an hour, two hours, one day, etc., induce an H state in an unwilling subject to
such an extent that he will perform an act for our benefit?
Can we by SI and H [sleep inducing] techniques compel a subject to travel long distances, commit
specified acts and return to us or bring files or materials?
Can we ensure total amnesia under any and all states?
Can we "change" a man's character?
Can we formulate a system for making reluctant subjects into willing agents and transfer that
control to untrained bureau agents in the field by use of codes or identifying signs?
How can sodium A or P or any other sleep inducing agent be best concealed in a normal item, like
sweets, cigarettes, coffee, tea, beer, medications? [12] BB 23, NB 13, 14
Officially, MKULTRA was established on 13 April 1953, at Richard Helms' suggestion as "ultra
sensitive" work. [13] The operational wing of MKULTRA had as its mission to discover the best way
to use chemical and biological weapon ingredients to transform the human mind. Originally
established as a supplementary financing mechanism to the ARTICHOKE job, MKULTRA rapidly
grew into a huge undertaking that outflanked earlier mind control initiatives. MC 69, NB 28
At present this results in ridiculous contracts which do not spell out the scope or objective of the
job." BB 125
