Brainwashing: How the CIA Sought Control of the Mind

nytimes.com — In the early 1950s, American troops were being killed and captured by the thousands in Korea. Panic spread that China ’s Communists had learned how to penetrate and control the minds of American prisoners of war. Finding out what others are thinking is the job of spies. The Korean experience spurred the C.I.A.’s search for mind-control techniques.

        "China is harvesting organs from live Falun Gong prisoners without consent and destroying their remains, says a report from a former Liberal MP and a Canadian human rights lawyer.

        The 68-page document, produced by former MP David Kilgour and Winnipeg lawyer David Matas, is based partly on a series of telephone recordings made by the Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of the Falun Gong in China (CIPFG). The non-governmental group has offices in Washington and Ottawa.

        David Kilgour, former Liberal cabinet minister, says that China is harvesting organs from live Falun Gong prisoners without consent and destroying their remains.

        David Kilgour, former Liberal cabinet minister, says that China is harvesting organs from live Falun Gong prisoners without consent and destroying their remains.

        It also includes interviews with Falun Gong practitioners living in Canada and information taken from Chinese hospital and transplant centre websites.

        For years, Falun Gong followers have alleged that the Chinese government harvests and sells the organs of imprisoned Falun Gong members in an increasingly profitable organ trade.

        Of the 60,000 organ transplants the China Medical Organ Transplant Association recorded between 2000 and 2005, 18,500 of those organs came from identifiable sources, said the report.

        "That leaves 41,500 transplants from no other explained sources," Matas said during a news conference Thursday in Ottawa."

      • Herkimer56, on 07/08/2008, -3/+3I would call you an expert on denial based purely on your vast experience denying everything that you don't agree with. For instance, "I am by no means an expert on denial."

        The world is round, Herk. Lying to make your point IS STILL LYING. Your opinion that he's 'so left' is more bigotry than truth, most especially when you are far from 'so right' yourself. Your belief that 'we all know' this is even further down the road into HerkLand, where deniability is paramount. More than 13,000 comments, most of them denying something someone said is *****, nonsense, and, of course, *****. A simple look through your comment history shows you to be far more the master of deniability than I could ever hope to compete with.

    He determined that “the Reds have specialists available on their brainwashing panels,” experts in the use of “drugs and hypnotism,” as he later told the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Their ultimate goal was conquering America.

    “The United States is the main battlefield,” he testified, “the people and the soil and the resources of the United States.” He warned that brainwashing would make Americans “subjects of a ‘new world order’ for the benefit of a mad little knot of despots in the Kremlin.”

        "This is William Cooper's shocking book Behold a Pale Horse (1991) which has since it was first published over 15 years ago become the bestselling underground book of all time. One of the main reasons is probably the most accurate predictions it holds inside regarding the terrifyng future of our planet as powerful forces are planning nothing less than a total enslavement of mankind or human resources as we are called. An instant conspiracy classic when published the information inside was not only very shocking but profound for anyone who read it and many people have since then changed the way they look on world events. The author, former U.S. Naval Intelligence Briefing Team Member and holder of Top Secret security clearance, reveals information kept secret by US government since the 1940s. It includes UFOs, JFK assassination, secret world government, war on drugs and many more topics which are not only relevant but crucial to understanding the world today. Cooper was privileged to see secret documentation and meet various insiders who convinced him that there is a major conspiracy ongoing to subvert USA to a totalitarian state ruled by a handful of people constituting a powerful oligarchy. Much of this has already come to pass and is common knowledge today thanks to such books as this. Carefully researched and fully documented, Behold a Pale Horse is one of those books which will surely keep the reader at his seat until he has finished reading it from cover to cover. It doesn't only inform the reader about our hidden history but delivers mindblowing analysis and connects the dots so anyone can sense the big picture for themselves. This book is a must read for all freedom-loving people, who are, at present, in great danger of losing their freedom and even their lives to a group of powerful and wealthy men, who are now, and have always been, in complete control of all the media, banks, and the New World Order. 500 pages, many pictures and documents. A must read for everyone.
        Chapters review from amazon.com:
        1) SILENT WEAPONS FOR QUIET WARS
        A reprint of a document found in a IBM copier bought at a surplus sale. In short this document is a blue print for controlling a population. Some have claimed that it's a fake. If it's a fake then someone went to great lengths to draft such a insightful document - but why?
        2) SECRET SOCIETIES AND THE NEW WORLD ORDER
        A good introduction to secret societies like the Freemasons, Jason Group, Trilateral Commission, CFR, and the Illuminati. On page 72 he accurately predicted that the Galileo spacecraft was going to crash into Jupiter in an attempt to ignite its atmosphere! (Anyone out there remember 2010 and what happened to Jupiter in that movie?)
        3) OATH OF INITIATION OF AN UNIDENTIFIED SECRET ORDER
        You'll have to decide for yourself if you want to believe this oath.
        4) SECRET TREATY OF VERONA
        A sample of how Monarchs use treaties to regain their crowns.
        5) GOOD-BY USA, HELLO NEW WORLD ORDER
        Plans for the suspension of the Constitution and the role of Mt. Weather in bringing it about.
        6) H.R. 7049 & FEMA
        After reading this chapter you won't doubt the real purpose of FEMA.
        7) ANTI-DRUG ABUSE ACT OF 1988
        An excellent example of how congress (which is the opposite of progress!) passes legislation which on the surface seems to be reasonable, but under the surface it's really an attempt to suspend due proses, trail by jury, and bring about a police state!
        8) ARE THE SHEEP READY TO SHEER?
        It covers an Oklahoma law that requires residents of that state to declare to the tax collector every piece of property that they own! A good way for the government to know what you own - especially guns!
        9) ANATOMY OF AN ALLIANCE
        A discussion about population control and various attempts to decrease the world's population. On page 168 he reveals the origins of AIDS (H.B. 15090) and how it was spread by vaccine. How international wars are created for population control.
        10) LESSONS FROM LITHUANIA
        A short (two page) but excellent article by Neal Knox on gun control.
        11) COUP DE GRACE
        A transcript of a conversation between Bill and Randall Terpstra, who was a radioman and crypto operator in the U.S. Navy. They discuss how Nixon was forced to resign by the U.S. military, U.F.O.'s, "Operation Majority," and so on.
        12) THE SECRET GOVERNMENT
        He discusses a lot about aliens and U.F.O.'s in this chapter. On page 215 he reveals the truth about the assassination of J.F.K. How Prozac is used along with hypnosis and mind control techniques to motivate people to commit mass shootings in order to disarm the public.
        13) TREASON IN HIGH PLACES
        An article on how treaties can be used to erode the sovereignty of the U.S.A.
        14) A PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL MODEL FOR THE NEWSTATES OF AMERICA
        A reprint of a proposed socialist constitution by the Center for Democratic Studies. It's hard to believe that $25,000,000 was spent on this trash.
        15) PROTOCOLS OF THE WISE MEN OF ZION
        Is this document really the protocols of the Illuminati? Read it and decide for yourself.
        16) THE STORY OF JONATHAN MAY
        A 26 page story about what happens when someone challenged the Fed money system.
        17) DOCUMENTATION: U.S. ARMY INTELLIGENCE CONNECTION WITH SATANIC CHURCH

        From the backcover:
        Bill Cooper, former United States Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member, reveals information that remains hidden from the public eye.This information has been kept in Top Secret government files since the 1940s. His audiences hear the truth unfold as he writes about the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the war on drugs, the Secret Government, and UFOs. Bill is a lucid, rational, and powerful speaker whose intent is to inform and to empower his audience. Standing room only is normal. His presentation and information transcend partisan affiliations as he clearly addresses issues in a way that has a striking impact on listeners of all backgrounds and interests. He has spoken to many groups throughout the United States and has appeared regularly on many radio talk shows and on television.
        In 1988 Bill decided to "talk" due to events then taking place worldwide, events which he had seen plans for back in the early 70s. Since Bill has been "talking" he has correctly predicted the lowering of the Iron Curtain, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the invasion of Panama. All Bill's predictions were on record well before the events occurred. Bill is not a psychic. His information comes from Top Secret documents that he read while with the Intelligence Briefing Team and from over 17 years of thorough research.
        "Bill Cooper is the world's leading expert on UFOs." Billy Goodman, KVEG, Las Vegas.
        "The only man in America who has all the pieces to the puzzle that has troubled so many for so long." Anthony Hilder, Radio Free America.
        "William Cooper may be one of America's greatest heroes and this story may be the biggest story in the history of the world." Mills Crenshaw, KTALK, Salt Lake City.
        "Like it or not, everything is changing. The result will be the most wonderful experience in the history of man or the most horrible enslavement that you can imagine. Be active or Abdicate, the future is in your hands." William Cooper, October 24, 1989.

We're not ***** pawns, not all of us anyway. While some of you ***** bicker back and forth of who's controlling who, I'm going to try to enjoy life can carry on.

    "Yeah, keep on enjoying life while your government plots how to control your mind." - Yeah, I know digg too well. The government has been doing this ever since it was established, according to the paranoid. And guess what, did you know we are the government? I have friends and family that work for it. Are they in a plot to control my mind? Or unsuspectingly doing so? Blah, people with too much time on their hands, if you ask me. Or watches too much X-Files, which is a damn good show, btw.

    I am against any sort of mind control by the government. We're a nation that has something decent and I don't think we need to control minds for people to stay true to it. My dad may be a grumpy old man as I predict I will be and we may have very different views, that doesn't mean I'd trade his life for another and be disloyal. Same with a a government, girlfriend, etc. Doing something faulty does not mean I condone it or that I may believe a lie they speak. Maybe if the government trusted us more, we'd trust it more, just as in a relationship. Oh well, why the ***** do I always forget what I'm getting at when I go for these long comments.

Who knows what other forms of mind control they've gotten involved with through their contact with the CoS.

      • Hangly, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1I know I'll be buried very very deep for this, but here goes.

        (And this only applies to the extreme left, not the sane Obama left. You all are cool.)

        The two psychological tendencies that underlie modern leftism we call "feelings of inferiority" and "oversocialization." Feelings of inferiority are characteristic of modern leftism as a whole, while oversocialization is characteristic only of a certain segment of modern leftism; but this segment is highly influential.

        By "feelings of inferiority" we mean not only inferiority feelings in the strictest sense but a whole spectrum of related traits: low self-esteem, feelings of powerlessness, depressive tendencies, defeatism, guilt, self-hatred, etc. We argue that modern leftists tend to have such feelings (possibly more or less repressed) and that these feelings are decisive in determining the direction of modern leftism.

        Many leftists have an intense identification with the problems of groups that have an image of being weak (women), defeated (American Indians), repellent (homosexuals), or otherwise inferior. The leftists themselves feel that these groups are inferior. They would never admit it to themselves that they have such feelings, but it is precisely because they do see these groups as inferior that they identify with their problems. (We do not suggest that women, Indians, etc., ARE inferior; we are only making a point about leftist psychology).

        Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hate Western civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in
        Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist's real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful.
      • Hangly, on 07/08/2008, -1/+1Words like "self-confidence," "self-reliance," "initiative", "enterprise," "optimism," etc. play little role in the liberal and leftist vocabulary. The leftist is anti-individualistic, pro-collectivist. He wants society to solve everyone's needs for them, take care of them. He is not the sort of person who has an inner sense of confidence in his own ability to solve his own problems and satisfy his own needs. The leftist is antagonistic to the concept of competition because, deep inside, he feels like a loser.

        The leftist is not typically the kind of person whose feelings of inferiority make him a braggart, an egotist, a bully, a self-promoter, a ruthless competitor. This kind of person has not wholly lost faith in himself. He has a deficit in his sense of power and self-worth, but he can still conceive of himself as having the capacity to be strong, and his efforts to make himself strong produce his unpleasant behavior. But the leftist is too far gone for that. His feelings of inferiority are so ingrained that he cannot conceive of himself as individually strong and valuable. Hence the collectivism of the leftist. He can feel strong only as a member of a large organization or a mass movement with which he identifies himself.

        I could go on all day.

        FYI, that's from the Unabomber Manifesto.

  • Hangly, on 07/08/2008, -0/+7For what it's worth, the US has always been the best at propaganda. Even Hitler patterned his propaganda on the propaganda Wilson used in WWI.

    After the world wars America perfected the art of using Freudian psychology to make commercials that don't look like commercials and propaganda that doesn't look like propaganda.

    Chinese propaganda is still pretty crude. It doesn't get much more sophisticated than "Don't join the Falun Gong or you are a traitorous asswipe! Love, the government." Not surprisingly, it doesn't really work.
    • bratterscain, on 07/08/2008, -0/+3Yeah, the 'love and trust to get the same' ideology seems the best thing for a govt just as with a girlfriend. You can tell or try to force a girl to be true but you're a controlling dick, why should that give her any incentive to be true when she knows you're an *****? Same role a govt should play with its people. Love and trust them, you will get the same back.

    Kids, even though the Times makes it sound that the US loses every war it enters (will WWII and the Revolutionary War be next on it's rewrite of history??), the Korean War was basically a "win" that later became a stalemate. Communist North Korea attacks South Korea and with the help of the US and UN forces, beat the North Koreans back... then the Chinese throw in with the North Koreans and it then became a stalemate... we decided to use diplomacy rather than nukes... thus avoiding WWIII.

    Just wanted to point out yet another subtle attempt at double-think (google it.) by the liberal media.

    FACTS below...

    "The Korean War finally ended in July 1953. Left in its wake were four million military and civilian casualties, including 33,600 American, 16,000 UN allied, 415,000 South Korean, and 520,000 North Korean dead. There were also an estimated 900,000 Chinese casualties. " -- source: http://www.cotf.edu/ete/modules/korea/kwar.html

    Ah, gotta love the New York Times... every pore in the pulp stinking of a leftist agenda.
  • gkiltz, on 07/08/2008, -1/+0We now clearly see: It didn't actually work, did it?
    Never did, never will!
    Pepope who can think ofr themselves always will!
    As for those who can't think for themselves, well, you can't wash what ain't there!
    • zombies187, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1So if it works, its the prisoners fault. Very logical.
  • askantik, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1Watched the thing about this on the History Channel yesterday. Interesting, to say the least...
  • zombies187, on 07/08/2008, -0/+1I think the interesting idea in this is that this was part of an arms race against the Soviets. We BOTH spent a lot of money on this. What are THEY doing with what they learned? I bet they sold it to some jerks.

    Project Mockingbird Expansion leads to Infiltration and Control of News Distribution by Placing people facing extensive Narcotics and or Violent Criminal Charges in Key Position of the News Industry. Circumventing the Constitution, Free Press, the Freedom of Speech, and Civil Liberty.

    A Social War Being Waged By the U.S. Government Against its own People.


    From the years between 1987 and 1995, I encountered many people on the streets of Sacramento, CA.

    Of the 150 to 200 "Professional" Contacts I had involving Prostitution and Narcotics, no less than 80 of those contacts have been given new identities, and have been placed in Key Positions of the Media and Local Government.

    This is an affront not only to Our Country's Constitution and a Free Press, it directly involves Our Country in the Trafficking and Slavery of Humans.

    They hold these people hostage with their pasts. A past in which the Government profited from, and required them to transport these individuals across State lines to engage in these illegal acts. That includes some subjects that were minors.

    Do Not Let This Continue!
