technologies to control the mind, change behaviour and
even transfer thoughts for good or ill have been created
using sound as well as external and internal
electrostimulation of the brain. |
Auditory
Effects (continued)
The military interest in auditory effects was present since the
first inventions were patented, but in 1971 came a system which
would allow troops to communicate through a radio transmitter which
would render the enemy deaf and disoriented while allowing
"friendly" combatants to communicate at the same time.
The device is described as follows:
"Broadly, this disclosure is
directed to a system for producing aural and psychological
disturbances and partial deafness of the enemy during combat
situations. Essentially, a high directional beam is radiated
from a plurality of distinct transducers and is modulated by a
noise, code, or speech beat signal. The invention may utilize
various forms and may include movable radiators mounted on a
vehicle and oriented to converge at a desired point,
independently positioned vehicles with a common frequency
modulator, or means employed to modulate the acoustical beam
with respect to a fixed frequency.
During combat, friendly forces would
be equipped with a reference generator to provide aural
demodulation of the projected signal, thereby yielding an
intelligible beat signal while enemy personnel would be rendered
partially deaf by the projected signal as well as being unable
to perceive any intelligence transmitted in the form of a
modulated beat signal."29
What this says simply is that
at-a-distance personal communication could be achieved by one’s own
forces while denying it to others and disabling adversaries at the
same time.
In 1974, it was noted that using a microwave a signal was changed (transduced)
by the receiver into an acoustic signal. This signal was "heard"
inside or just behind the head. The report stated:
"...it was noticed that the apparent
locus of the ’sound’ moved from the observer’s head to the
absorber. That is, the absorber acted as a transducer from
microwave energy to an acoustic signal. This observation, to the
best of our knowledge, has not been described in the literature
and may serve as a mechanism mediating the ’hearing’ of pulsed
microwave signals."31
By 1989, the science took another leap
forward with the combination of the modulated signal on a microwave
carrier. This provided a much more efficient delivery of the sound.
It was reported:
"Sound is induced in the head of a
person by radiating the head with microwaves in the range of 100
megahertz to 10,000 megahertz that are modulated with a
particular waveform. The waveform consists of frequency
modulated bursts. Each burst is made up of ten to twenty
uniformly spaced pulses grouped tightly together. The burst
width is between 500 nanoseconds and 100 microseconds. The pulse
width is in the range of 10 nanoseconds to 1 microsecond. The
bursts are frequency modulated by the audio input to create the
sensation of hearing in the person whose head is irradiated."31
Two other patents awarded that year
addressed this breakthrough. The first invention related to devices
for aiding hearing in mammals:
"The invention is based upon
perception of sounds which is experienced in the brain when the
brain is subjected to certain microwave radiation signals."32
The second invention confirmed the
earlier observations:
"Sound is induced in the head of a
person by radiating the head with microwaves in the range of 100
megahertz to 10,000 megahertz that are modulated with a
particular waveform. The waveform consists of frequency
modulated bursts. Each burst is made up of ten to twenty
uniformly spaced pulses grouped tightly together."33
In 1992, another patent was issued with
the following description:
"A silent communications system in
which nonaural carriers, in the very low or very high audio
frequency range or in the adjacent ultrasonic frequency
spectrum, are amplitude or frequency modulated with the desired
intelligence and propagated acoustically or vibrationally, for
inducement into the brain, typically through the use of
loudspeakers, earphones or piezoelectric transducers."34
This device had limited practicality in
that it required the person to be in contact with or in close
proximity to the sending device.
When examined together, each of these patents is seen to be a
discrete step toward a new weapon system.
In 1995, it was reported that in the early research, clear sound
signals had been sent and received. It is difficult now to determine
what level of military or other research was being advanced in these
areas. The history is clear from congressional reports that this
entire area was of great interest to the intelligence communities.
According to Scientists for Global Responsibility:
"Drs Alan Frey and Joseph Sharp
conducted related research. Sharp himself took part in these
experiments and reported that he heard and understood words
transmitted in pulse-microwave analogs of the speaker’s sound
vibrations. Commenting on these studies, Dr Robert Becker, twice
nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, observed that such a device
has obvious applications in covert operations designed to drive
a target crazy with voices, or deliver undetectable instructions
to a potential assassin."35
Then, in 1996 came another development,
a...
"wireless communication system
undetectable by radio frequency methods for converting audio
signals, including human voice, to electronic signals in the
ultrasonic frequency range, transmitting the ultrasonic signal
by means of acoustic pressure waves across a carrier medium,
including gases, liquids, or solids, and reconverting the
ultrasonic acoustical pressure waves back to the original audio
signal".36
Although this was meant to be used with
both receiving and sending hardware, what was determined were the
modulation methods for transferring the signal.
The real work was yet to be made public in the form of patents.
However, the military claims in the area were starting to surface.
What was known from experience was that patents were being held back
by the government and confiscated by the military. When this
intellectual property was seized, the inventors were given a choice:
work for the government, or you cannot continue research or even
talk about your invention under a national security order. Those who
did not cooperate could have their work effectively shut down.
Brain-to-Computer Connections
Major steps are being made to connect biology to information
technology. In 1990 came the news that,
"[s]cientists have succeeded
for the first time in establishing a colony of human brain cells
that divide and grow in laboratory dishes, an achievement with
profound implications for understanding and treating a wide range of
neurological disorders from epilepsy to Alzheimer’s disease".37
According to a report in the Wall Street Journal in February
1994:
"Researchers said they took a key
first step toward creating electronic microchips that use living
brain cells. The researchers said they had learned how to place
embryonic brain cells in desired spots on silicon or glass chips
and then induce the brain cells to grow along desired paths."38
The other possibility is that both brain
cells and computer hardware could be built in the laboratories,
creating, perhaps, the first biologically augmented computers.
What’s
on Your Mind?
A significant initiative was started for use in creating
counter-drug measures: the Brain Imaging Technology Initiative.
"This initiative establishes NIDA
[National Institute on Drug Abuse] regional neuroimaging centers
and represents an interagency cooperative endeavor funded by
CTAC [Counterdrug Technology Assessment Center], Department of
Energy (DOE), and NIDA to develop new scientific tools (new
radiotracers and technologies) for understanding the mechanisms
of addiction and for the evaluation of new pharmacological
treatments."39
Through neuroimaging, not only could the
stated objective be achieved, but through imaging a person’s
emotional states could be mapped, chemical influences determined and
perhaps even specific thoughts read.
Back in 1975, Physics Today reported:
"Developments in ways to measure the
extremely weak magnetic fields emanating from organs such as the
heart, brain and lungs are leading to important new methods for
diagnosing abnormal conditions."40
In 1995, a system for capturing and
decoding brain signals was patented which includes a transducer for
stimulating a person and EEG transducers for recording brainwave
signals from the person. It also includes a computer for controlling
and synchronizing stimuli presented to the person and at the same
time recording brainwave signals, and either interpreting these
signals using a model for conceptual, perceptual and emotional
thought to correspond to the EEG signals of the person’s thoughts or
comparing the signals to normal brain signals from a normal
population to diagnose and locate the origin of brain-dysfunctional
underlying perception, conception and emotion.41
In other words, the device reads your mind by comparing your brain
activity to other people’s.
In 1996 came this Orwellian development:
"...a method for remotely
determining information relating to a person’s emotional state,
as waveform energy having a predetermined frequency and a
predetermined intensity is generated and wirelessly transmitted
towards a remotely located subject. Waveform energy emitted from
the subject is detected and automatically analyzed to derive
information relating to the individual’s emotional state.
Physiological or physical parameters of blood pressure, pulse
rate, pupil size, respiration rate and perspiration level are
measured and compared with reference values to provide
information utilizable in evaluating [an] interviewee’s
responses or possibly criminal intent in security sensitive
areas."42
This technology could be used for
determining what a person might do, given his totally discernible
interior emotions. This technology walks through any behaviour wall
a person can erect and goes straight to the brain to see what may be
on a person’s mind.
Inducing behaviour rather than just reading a person’s emotional
state is the subject of one scientist’s work in Canada.
"Scientists are trying to recreate
alien abductions in the laboratory... The experiment, to be run
by Professor Michael Persinger, a neuroscientist at Laurentian
University, of Sudbury, Ontario, consists of a converted
motorcycle helmet with solenoids on its sides that set up
magnetic fields across a subject’s head."43
This experiment was carried out and was
the subject of a Canadian Broadcasting System exposé on mind
control. The segment ran on a program called Undercurrents in
February 1999. This author also appeared in that program, along with
several others interested in this field.
A 1993 report said that for over 20 years Dr Persinger,
"...has been working on a theory
that connects not only UFOs and earthquakes, but also powerful
electromagnetic fields and an explanation of paranormal beliefs
in terms of unusual brain activity. He has also found that
stimulating another area, the temporal lobes, can produce all
sorts of mystical experiences, out-of-body sensations and other
apparently paranormal phenomena."44
This doctor’s work suggests that these
experiences may be the result of activity in the brain and not the
actual experiences of the individuals. He has had some measure of
success in re-creating many of these experiences in his subjects. Dr
Persinger is also known for his work in studying the effects of
ELF
[extra-low-frequency waves] on memory and brain function.45
In 1991, a method for changing brain waves to a desired frequency
was patented.46 A
1975 patent discussed a similar technology: a device and method for,
"...sensing brain waves at a
position remote from a subject whereby electromagnetic signals
of different frequencies are simultaneously transmitted to the
brain of the subject in which the signals interfere with one
another to yield a waveform which is modulated by the subject’s
brain waves. The interference waveform which is representative
of the brain wave activity is retransmitted by the brain to a
receiver where it is demodulated and amplified. The demodulated
waveform is then displayed for visual viewing and then routed to
a computer for further processing and analysis. The demodulated
waveform also can be used to produce a compensating signal which
is transmitted back to the brain to effect a desired change in
electrical activity therein."47
In simple terms, the brain’s activity is
mapped in order to read a person’s emotional state, conceptual
abilities or intellectual patterns. A second signal can be generated
and sent back into the brain which overrides the natural signal,
causing the brain’s energy patterns to shift. This is the "brain
entrainment" which causes the shift in consciousness. There are many
uses of a positive nature for this kind of technology, as was
mentioned at the front of this section, the important factor being
who controls the technology and for what purpose.
In January 1998, the following encapsulating statement appeared in
the leading scientific journal Nature, quoting Pasteur Institute
neuroscientist Jean-Pierre Changeux, chairman of the French national
bioethics committee:
"But neuroscience also poses
potential risks, he said, arguing that advances in cerebral
imaging make the scope for invasion of privacy immense...it will
become commonplace and capable of being used at a distance, he
predicted. That will open the way for abuses such as invasion of
personal liberty, control of behaviour and brainwashing."48
Dancing to the Tune of an Unknown
Drummer
In...
"...a dramatic demonstration of
mind
reading, neuroscientists have created videos of what a cat sees
by using electrodes implanted in the animal’s brain. ’Trying to
understand how the brain codes information leads to the
possibility of replacing parts of the nervous system with an
artificial device,’ he said."49
The scientist commenting on this
technology—Gattett Stanley, assistant professor of biomedical
engineering at Harvard—saw the future possibility of brain activity
mapping being used in creating electronic components to replace
damaged parts of the system.
The use of mind-mapping had other possibilities as well. Similar
research in controlling the behaviour of humans and animals was
pursued by Dr José Delgado at Yale University, one of the leading
research institutions in the United States. Actual testing of
certain systems proved that "movements, sensations, emotions,
desires, ideas, and a variety of psychological phenomena may be
induced, inhibited, or modified by electrical stimulation of
specific areas of the brain".50
By 1985, Dr Delgado was able to create
these effects using only a radio signal sent to the brain remotely,
using energy concentrations of less than 1/50th of what
the Earth naturally produces. This discovery implied that frequency,
waveform and pulse rate (modulation) were the important factors
rather than the amount of energy being used. In considering this, it
makes sense because the human body does not require high
electromagnetic power concentration to regulate its normal
functioning. The key was in finding the "tuning" mechanisms for
locating the right "receiving station" in the brain.
By 1993, publicly released information was being discussed as a
result of information openly flowing out of Russia. Meetings were
held to assess the threat:
"the main purpose of the March
meetings was described in the Psychotechnologies memo as to
’determine whether psycho-correction technologies represent a
present or future threat to US national security in situations
where inaudible commands might be used to alter behavior’".51
The threat assessment was likely to
begin to condition Americans for the public acknowledgement of one
of the government’s long-held secrets: that the human mind and body
can be controlled remotely, without a trace of evidence being left
behind.
In another quote, one of the leading researchers in this area, Dr
Igor Smirnov, began to announce his findings.
"But psychological warfare experts
on all sides still dream that they will one day control the
enemy’s mind. And in a tiny, dungeon-like lab in the basement of
Moscow’s ominously named Institute of Psycho-Correction,
Smirnov
and other Russian psychiatrists are already working on
schizophrenics, drug addicts and cancer patients."52
The results of this research have been
investigated and demonstrated to members of the intelligence
community in the United States, and have even been demonstrated by
Dr Smirnov in an interview for the Canadian television documentary
Undercurrents.
This issue is also an interesting one, as can be seen in this 1999
article excerpt.
"Fantasies are thought processes
involving internal monologues and imaginative sequences which
can motivate healthy people to constructive behaviour; likewise,
they can inspire unbalanced individuals to destructive or
dangerous behaviour. One conclusion from that research was that
fantasy played a major role among violent criminals.
Researchers learned that criminals
often daydreamed their fantasies, and then practiced elements of
those fantasies before committing their crime. FBI agents
determined that violent criminals often exhibit telltale signs
as children and as adults. Hence, disturbed employees or
students may demonstrate signs of violent fantasies to close
observers. Troubled individuals may be obsessively interested in
music with violent lyrics, or may have a drug or alcohol
problem.
When these signs reveal themselves,
they should be reported to a threat management team, which can
then neutralize the threat, either by therapy, if rehabilitation
is possible, or by firing the employee. Workplace and school
violence is usually preceded by warning signs."53
The ability to determine a
"predisposition" for a behaviour does not mean that a person will
make the "choice" to act on the feelings and internal thoughts.
Every person on the planet can remember times when his thoughts were
dangerous, immoral or otherwise unacceptable, falling below the
standards set by societal and cultural "norms". Yet, we can have
these thoughts in the privacy of our own mind.
The trend in the application of mind control technology now would
make our most private internal thoughts, as we wrestle with the
temptations and choices of everyday life, subject to scrutiny by
government and employers. Who will define the rules for
psycho-correction? Who will decide what is ethical and right in this
area as it develops over the next decade?
Control of the
Mind and Body
The predominant brain wave frequencies indicate the kind of activity
taking place in the brain. There are four basic groups of brain wave
frequencies which are associated with most mental activity.
-
The
first group, beta waves (13–35 Hertz or pulses per second), is
associated with normal activity. The high end of this range is
associated with stress or agitated states which can impair thinking
and reasoning skills.
-
The second group, alpha waves (8–12 Hertz),
can indicate relaxation. Alpha frequencies are ideal for learning
and focused mental functioning.
-
The third group, theta waves (4-7
Hertz), indicates mental imagery, access to memories and internal
mental focus. This state is often associated with young children, behavioural modification and sleep/dream states.
-
The last group,
ultra-slow delta waves (0.5–3 Hertz), is found when a person is in
deep sleep.
The general rule is that the brain’s predominant wave
frequency will be lowest in terms of pulses per second when a person
is relaxed, and highest when a person is most alert or agitated.54
External stimulation of the brain by electromagnetic means can cause
the brain to be entrained or locked into phase with an external
signal generator.55
Predominant brain waves can be driven or pushed into new frequency
patterns by external stimulation. In other words, the external
signal driver or impulse generator entrains the brain, overriding
the normal frequencies and causing changes in the brain waves, which
then cause changes in brain chemistry, which then cause changes in
brain outputs in the form of thoughts, emotions or physical
condition. As you are driven, so you arrive.
Brain manipulation can
be either beneficial or detrimental to the individual being
impacted, depending on the level of knowledge or the intentions of
the person controlling the technology.
In combination with specific wave-forms, the various frequencies
trigger precise chemical responses in the brain. The release of
these neurochemicals causes specific reactions in the brain which
result in feelings of fear, lust, depression, love, etc. All of
these, and the full range of emotional/intellectual responses, are
caused by very specific combinations of these brain chemicals which
are released by frequency-specific electrical impulses.
"Precise mixtures of these brain
juices can produce extraordinarily specific mental states, such
as fear of the dark, or intense concentration."56
The work in this area is advancing at a
very rapid rate, with new discoveries being made regularly.
Unlocking the knowledge of these specific frequencies will yield
significant breakthroughs in understanding human health.
Radiofrequency radiation, acting as a carrier for extremely low
frequencies (ELF), can be used to entrain brain waves wirelessly.
The control of mind and body by using various forms of
electromagnetic energy including radio signals, light pulsations,
sound and other methods has resulted in several inventions and
innovations. The positive health effects and uses have been pursued
by private researchers around the world. In 1973, an...
"...apparatus for the treatment of
neuropsychic and somatic disorders wherein light, sound, VHF
electromagnetic field and heat sources, respectively, are
simultaneously applied by means of a control unit to the
patient’s central nervous system with a predetermined repetition
rate. The light radiation and sound radiation sources are made
so as to exert an adequate and monotonous influence of the light
and sound radiation on the patient’s visual analyzers and
auditory analyzers, respectively."57
This results in the brain following the
external stimulating source in triggering brain pattern changes
which affect the brain immediately and directly.
A simple invention patented in 1977...
"...provides a device for improving
upon the aforesaid application [see below, patent for full text] in
assisting the induction of natural sleep. As stated above, this
invention is concerned specifically with an improvement that
will permit the creation of several waveforms such that an
analgesic noise device can approximate soothing sounds of
nature, i.e., waves, rain, wind."58
These kinds of devices are available
everywhere and are noted for their calming effects in helping people
relax and sleep.
In 1980, another patent was issued which disclosed...
"...a method and apparatus for
producing a noise-like signal for inducing a hypnotic or
anesthetic effect in a human being. The invention also has
application in crowd control and consciousness level training
(biofeedback). The invention may also be used in creating
special musical effects."59
This device would have a profound effect
in controlling individuals to a point otherwise only achievable
through the application of hypnotherapy or drugs.
A couple of years later, another device
was engineered to create these types of effects, again using very
subtle energy:
"Brain wave patterns associated with
relaxed and meditative states in a subject are gradually induced
without deleterious chemical or neurological side effects."60
Various systems were perfected and
patents issued for controlling brain activity.61,
62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68 These inventions
generated a whole array of breakthroughs for controlling a person’s
emotional state, concentration and pain levels and creating other
effects as well. In 1990, the results of a study strongly indicated
that...
"...specific types of subjective
experiences can be enhanced when extremely low frequency
magnetic fields of less than 1 milligauss are generated through
the brain at the level of the temporal lobes. Vestibular
feelings (vibrations, floating), depersonalization (feeling
detached, sense of a presence) and imaginings (vivid images from
childhood) were more frequent within the field exposed groups
than the sham field exposed group."69
In a 1996 "new age" invention,
quartz
crystals are used to create stress relief by slowing brain activity.
"Physiological stress in a human
subject is treated by generating a weak electromagnetic field
about a quartz crystal. The crystal is stimulated by applying
electrical pulses of pulse widths between 0.1 and 50
microseconds each at a pulse repetition rate of between 0.5k and
10k [500 and 10,000] pulses per second to a conductor positioned
adjacent to the quartz crystal thereby generating a weak
magnetic field. A subject is positioned within the weak magnetic
field for a period of time sufficient to reduce stress."70
It is interesting that "New Age" thinkers have played on
"crystal magic" as a way to get "in tune" with oneself and
relax, and here is a quartz crystal being included as a
component of this invention. Again, the crossovers between
fiction and science continue to appear.
Consciousness training is also a big theme in
cults, religious
organizations and others pursuing the "New Age".
Science has now gained a greater understanding of how the mind and
brain work, so that what used to take years or even decades to
achieve can now be mastered in weeks, days or even minutes. For
instance, in 1996 a method and apparatus for the use in achieving
alpha and theta brainwave states and effecting positive emotional
states in humans was developed.71
Three years before, a patent was issued
for a device which could create desired consciousness states:
"...in the training of an individual
to replicate such states of consciousness without further audio
stimulation; and in the transferring of such states from one
human being to another through the imposition of one person’s
EEG, superimposed on desired stereo signals, on another
individual, by inducement of a binaural beat phenomenon."72
Thought transference?
This is interesting in that it speaks to the ideas alluded to
earlier by the military in changing the memory of a person by
imposing computer-manipulated signals which would integrate with the
normal memory of a person. The possibility for abuse is obvious, and
the opportunity for personal advancement is great. Imagine gaining
education by the transfer of data directly into the human brain by
these new methods rather than by the standard methods of learning.
A serious consideration in developing these types of memory transfer
systems is that they bypass normal intellectual filters: information
is deposited into the brain as fact, without question or careful
consideration. What happens when the new information conflicts with
existing information? Would it be possible to include hidden
information meant to unduly influence things like religious beliefs,
politics or consumption of goods and services?
The possibilities are immense and the ethical and moral questions
surrounding these matters are equally large. We can no longer avoid
the debate. In fact, the debate is lagging far behind the scientific
advances.
In the interim, there are some simple things we could all do to
enhance our own, or our children’s, learning capacity by applying
simple and available knowledge. For instance,
"researchers at the
Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory at University of
California, Irvine, have determined that 10 minutes of listening to
a Mozart piano sonata raised the measurable IQ of college students
by up to nine points".73
This is a simple thing of great use to anyone seeking
self-improvement.
Weapons of the
Mind
A 1984 paper titled "The Electromagnetic Spectrum in Low-Intensity
Conflict" said much about the military’s interest in EMR:
"The results of many studies that
have been published in the last few years indicate that specific
biological effects can be achieved by controlling the various
parameters of the electromagnetic (EM) field. A few of the more
important EM factors that can be manipulated are frequency, wave
shape, rate of pulse onset, pulse duration, pulse amplitude,
repetition rate, secondary modulation, and symmetry and
asymmetry of the pulse.
Many of the clinical effects of
electromagnetic radiation were first noticed using direct
current applied directly to the skin. Later the same effects
were obtained by applying external fields. Electromagnetic
radiation has been reported in the literature to induce or
enhance the following effects.
-
Stimulation of bone
regeneration [in fractures]
-
Healing of normal fractures
-
Treatment of congenital
pseudarthrosis
-
Healing of wounds
-
Electroanesthesia
-
Electroconvulsive therapy
-
Behavior modification in
animals
-
Altered
electroencephalograms in animals and humans
-
Altered brain morphology in
animals
-
Effects of acupuncture
-
Treatment of drug addiction
-
Electrostimulation for
relief of pain
-
Altered firing of neuronal
cells
"These are but a few of the many
biological effects and uses that have been reported over the
past decade. They are not exhaustive and do not include many of
the effects reported in the Soviet and East European literature.
"As with most human endeavors, these applications of
electromagnetic radiation have the potential for being a
double-edged sword. They can produce significant benefits, yet
at the same time can be exploited and used in a controlled
manner for military or covert applications. This paper focuses
on the potential uses of electromagnetic radiation in future
low-intensity conflicts.
"’Potential Military Applications of EMR
"The exploitation of this technology for military uses is still
in its infancy and only recently has been recognized by the
United States as a feasible option. A 1982 Air Force review of
biotechnology had this to say.
’Currently available data allow the projection that specially
generated radio frequency radiation (RFR) fields may pose
powerful and revolutionary military threats. Electroshock
therapy indicates the ability of induced electric current to
completely interrupt mental functioning for short periods of
time, to obtain cognition for longer periods and to restructure
emotional response over prolonged intervals.
’Experience with electroshock therapy, RFR experiments and the
increasing understanding of the brain as an electrically
mediated organ suggested the serious probability that impressed
electromagnetic fields can be disruptive to purposeful behavior
and may be capable of directing and or interrogating such
behavior. Further, the passage of approximately 100 milliamperes
through the myocardium can lead to cardiac standstill and death,
again pointing to a speed-of-light weapons effect.
’A rapidly scanning RFR system could provide an effective stun
or kill capability over a large area. System effectiveness will
be a function of wave form, field intensity, pulse widths,
repetition frequency, and carrier frequency. The system can be
developed using tissue and whole animal experimental studies,
coupled with mechanisms and waveform effects research.
’Using relatively low-level RFR it may be possible to sensitize
large military groups to extremely dispersed amounts of
biological or chemical agents to which the unirradiated
population would be immune.
’The potential applications of artificial electromagnetic fields
are wide ranging and can be used in many military or
quasi-military situations.
’Some of these potential uses include dealing with terrorist
groups, crowd control, controlling breeches [sic] of security at
military installations, and antipersonnel techniques in tactical
warfare... One last area where electromagnetic radiation may
prove to be of some value is in enhancing abilities of
individuals for anomalous phenomena.’"74
Quite the papers for the 1980s.
Stimulating anomalous phenomena was another interesting point
revealed in the Air Force review. What could this mean? In one press
report in November 1995, the interest of the CIA was disclosed when
it was announced that for...
"...20 years, the United States has
secretly used psychics in attempts to help drug enforcement
agencies track down Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and find
plutonium in North Korea, the CIA and others confirm. The
ESP
spying operations—code named
’Stargate’—were unreliable, but
three psychics continued to work out of Ft Meade, at least into
July, researchers who evaluated the program for the CIA said..."75
It is also worth pointing out that this
report coincided with the public disclosure by military personnel of
this project. The story was revealed in David Morehouse’s book
Psychic Warrior.76
Col. John Alexander, working out of Los Alamos and a major proponent
of this area of research, was quoted as saying:
"...there are weapons systems that
operate on the power of the mind and whose lethal capacity has
already been demonstrated... The psychotronic weapon would be
silent, difficult to detect, and would require only a human
operator as a power source."77
According to a paper on non-lethal
weapons:
"An RF weapon currently under
development is the high powered, very low frequency (VLF)
modulator. Working in the 20–35 kHz spectrum, the frequency
emits from a 1–2 meter antenna dish to form into a type of
acoustic bullet. The weapon is especially convenient because the
power level is easily adjustable. At its low setting, the
acoustic bullet causes physical discomfort—enough to deter most
approaching threats. Incrementally increasing the power nets an
effect of nausea, vomiting and abdominal pains. The highest
settings can cause a person’s bones to literally explode
internally. Aimed at the head, the resonating skull bones have
caused people to hear ’voices’."
The weapon was researched by the Russian
military more extensively than by the US. Indeed,
"...the Russians actually offered
the use of such a weapon to the FBI in the Branch Davidian
standoff to make them think that ’God’ was talking to them.
Concerned with the unpredictability of what the voices might
actually say to the followers, the FBI declined the offer.
Another RF weapon that was ready for use back in 1978 was
developed under the guise of Operation PIQUE. Developed by the
CIA, the plan was to bounce high powered radio signals off the
ionosphere to affect the mental functions of people in selected
areas, including Eastern European nuclear installations."78
The use of the ionosphere in the CIA’s
experiments reminds one of the possibilities now available with
systems such as
HAARP, which was developed 15 years later. What is
clear in all of this is that these systems have been developed and
hidden from public view. The practice continues to this day.
"The next area of non-lethal weapons
is primarily used against machinery... these devices can either
cause the machinery to stop functioning or to render it
vulnerable to further, more lethal attacks. In addition to this
effect, man has become very dependent upon the use of machines
and is often rendered helpless in a situation when they become
dysfunctional. Therefore, it is only appropriate that they are
covered here. The primary anti-machinery arsenal includes the
microwave weapon, the non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse, and the
laser weapon.
"US Special Operations Command has in its arsenal the portable
microwave weapon. The capability of such a weapon is varied in
that it can not only disrupt enemy communications, but can also
superheat internal organs. Of course, directing this type of
weapon towards personnel eliminates it from the non-lethal
classification. Developed in the Los Alamos National Laboratory,
the weapon forms its signal similar to the RF weapons discussed
above in that it directs the energy into a high-powered pulse
and destroys transistors and other electrical equipment... On an
even smaller scale, a portable EMP weapon could be carried by
ground forces to destroy the electrical components in an armored
vehicle or tank. This capability is being developed with police
forces to emit a pulse that would stop a car almost
immediately."79
These systems offer both promises and
risks as we move into the new century. What will be the public
reaction to these systems? We suggest that the reaction will cause a
significant change in the uses and further developments of these
technologies. Additionally, we suspect that monitoring systems would
be developed which would allow for the detection of these
technologies in order to control abuse.
Mind Control
Victims
Sometimes referred to as "wavies" or "beamers", these individuals
are usually dismissed when asserting that they are the victims of
mind control weapons testing. In fact:
"University of South Florida
researchers have published a study showing that fears of the
Internet are replacing the CIA and radio waves as a frequent
delusion in psychiatric patients. In every case of Internet
delusion documented by the researchers, the patient actually had
little experience with computers."80
The problem is that it is difficult if
not impossible to sort out which people might be victims and which
are delusional. Attempts to determine the reality of the complaints
are often the butt of jokes and fear. For example, the University of
Albany has...
"...shut down the research of a
psychology professor probing the ’X-Files’ world of government
surveillance and mind control. At conferences, in papers and
research over two semesters, Professor Kathryn Kelley explored
the claims of those who say they were surgically implanted with
communications devices to read their thoughts."81
Since the release of our first book,
Angels Don’t Play This HAARP: Advances in Tesla Technology,82
we have heard from hundreds of people making such claims. We cannot
sort out what might be real experimentation from that which resides
only in the minds of these people. We believe that the claims should
be taken seriously and that people should have some place to go in
order to find the truth or gain the medical treatments they
otherwise deserve. The history of the United States is littered with
examples of people being exploited by scientists working under the
cover of darkness provided by "black budgets". Could these reports
have a factual basis? We believe that some do.
Government control of the mind in order to impose its will on people
is best summarized on the wall of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial
with an inscription that reads:
"They [who] seek to establish
systems of government based on the regimentation of all human
beings by a handful of individual rulers... call this a new
order. It is not new and it is not order."83
