Conspiracy Fact: Human Experimentation in the United States DECLASSIFIED

Did you know that American history is peppered with cases of human experimentation?

Could you in your wildest dreams imagine that it was happening through the mid-1970s? That is in most of our lifetimes!

I wish that I could tell you that it's a load of crap, but the fact is...it's true. Supported by dozens of declassified documents and publications, horrible human testing can be corroborated throughout our history. Conspiracy Fact: Human Experimentation in the United States introduces you to a number of appalling cases involving the most vulnerable members of society.

The book documents a handful of cases taking place between the 1840s and 1970s. That's right, for over a century, these atrocities were regularly happening. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

With reference images throughout, you can put names with some of the faces of doctors who performed tests on United States citizens without their knowledge or consent. You will read about cases of the poor, minorities, pregnant women, infants, even military personnel were not safe from their probes and needles.

That's not all, there's an addendum and a wealth of sources where the information was found. This is the first book in a series called Conspiracy Facts Declassified that will take an in-depth look at our world and attempt to decode fact from fiction.

Introduction

MKULTRA is the codename of a top secret, clandestine project orchestrated by the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) which explored ways to control the minds of people through various means including, but not limited to: drugs, chemicals, torture, verbal and sexual abuse, and sensory deprivation. The project sought to control the minds of humans through the development of drugs and procedures to torture and interrogate.

The Project was a knee-jerk reaction to the thought that Soviets, Chinese and Koreans might be leading the charge as far as interrogation techniques were concerned during and after the Korean War.  The goal of MKULTRA was to weaken the mind of the individual as a whole and induce compliance through confession and overall mind control. MKULTRA consisted of 149 subprojects and spanned from 1951 to its so-called demise in 1973. I have come across some discrepancies in these dates. The Project wasn’t actually given the go-ahead until 1953. The CIA Inspector General produced a detailed report on MKULTRA in 1963 which is said to have led to the dissolution of the Project in 1964. The 1973 date is when the records on MKULTRA were ordered to be destroyed. [Source]

Did MKULTRA end? A lot of people don’t think so, but more importantly, it happened. There are reams of declassified documents available online consisting of memos and reports corroborating MKULTRA and it’s subprojects. These are just the materials that escaped destruction. The CIA conducted mind control experiments...that is fact. Many of these experiments were questionable to say the least, if not downright illegal. Another fact: some of these tests were conducted on humans who didn’t know they were undergoing tests that presented potential danger to their person.

There are many theorists that explore MKULTRA and ascertain that it is still underway to this day in the form of media, music, movies, and television programming. Theorists also claim that MKULTRA goes hand in hand with the Illuminati and an agenda set forth by the elites of this world to control and eventually exterminate a good portion of the population on this planet. Initially, I won’t explore these theories, but may visit them at the end of this book. For now, let’s focus on the facts.

Operation Paperclip

Operation Paperclip was a predecessor to MKULTRA. It will shock you if you don’t already know what it entailed. In the aftermath of World War II, Operation Paperclip brought more than 1500 scientists, doctors, and engineers to the United States from Germany and other countries. The main goals of the the operation were to:

●  Prevent the Soviet Union and United Kingdom from getting their hands on German technology

●  Gain German scientific expertise and knowledge for the United States

●  Prevent Germany from rebuilding the strength of their military and scientific community

It cannot be ignored that a good number of these persons were Nazis. At least one had to return to Germany to face trial for war crimes. Among these persons were notable rocket scientists Arthur Rudolph and Wernher Von Braun, although Braun was not included in this list because his records were never transferred to NARA. [Source] It is also believed that Dr. Josef Mengele, the “Angel of Death” from Auschwitz was brought to the U.S. under an alias; however, evidence points more accurately to Mengele fleeing to Brazil and dying there in the late 1970s. A few minutes of reading about him will reveal that he should have been first in line to stand trial for crimes against humanity. [Source]

As American and Allied troops seized various German scientific and industrial establishments, it became apparent that the United States was lagging behind severely in the realm of technology. The Germans far exceeded us in supersonic rockets, nerve gas, jet engines, hardened armor, guided missiles, and stealth technology to name a few. It didn’t take U.S. military officials in Europe long to realize we needed to seize the brains and equipment behind such technology in order to prevent it from falling into Soviet hands.

President Truman authorized Operation Paperclip in August of 1945, and by November 18th, the first Germans entered America. President Truman had specified stipulations regarding which Germans would be eligible for asylum in the U.S. These stipulations would disqualify any scientist who was active in the Nazi Party or related organizations. It didn’t take officials long to realize that any such stipulations would disqualify many of the more prominent scientists such as Wernher Von Braun. Braun was an active participant in numerous Nazi interests and organizations, in addition to holding rank in the Schutzstaffel (SS), which was the Nazi Party’s protective squadron.

This would have also excluded many of Von Braun’s associates who were members of his rocket development team:

●  Arthur Rudolph - Rudolph arrived in the United States in 1945, he was sought for his rocket expertise. In fact, Rudolph was a rather prominent Nazi described as “100% Nazi, the dangerous kind”. He has since been credited with the death of 20000 slave laborers building V-2 missiles at Nordhausen. He has been honored by NASA as the “father of the Saturn V” rocket which won the Space Race for America by landing us on the Moon in 1969.

●  Kurt Debus - You’ll find a white-washed biography of Dr. Kurt H. Debus here which documents him as the first director of the Kennedy Space Center from 1962 to 1974 and overseer of the creation and use of the rocket launch facilities in Cape Canaveral, Florida. It also rightly states his arrival in the U.S. at Fort Bliss, Texas in 1945, but doesn’t mention it was as a part of Operation Paperclip. Debus was a former SS officer like his comrade, Von Braun. He was considered “a menace to the security of the Allied Forces” in his dossier.

●  Hubertus Strughold - Each year since 1963, the Space Medicine Association has sought a scientist or clinician who has achieved outstanding work in the field of aviation medicine to award the Hubertus Strughold Award. In 2012, it was brought to light that Strughold was listed among 13 “persons, firms, or organizations implicated” in some horrendous experiments at the Dachau concentration camp according to a 1946 memo from the staff of the Nuremberg Trials. [Source] Strughold, often referred to as the “Father of Space Medicine”, always denied such implications. At best, it is believed that many of his subordinates, from whom he referenced research and information, participated in human experiments at Dachau and Auschwitz that resulted in inmates being frozen to death and dying as a result of placement in low-pressure chambers.

While the United States was conducting human experimentation on minorities, the poor, and the mentally-disabled, the Nazis were conducting their own experiments. The only difference was that the Third Reich used the enormous Jewish (among other minorities) population that was incarcerated in the many concentration camps throughout Europe. At this point, it begins to become possible to consider that the United States placed a higher priority on technological advancement and winning the Space Race than on humanity and the lives of her citizens.

It’s obvious that Operation Paperclip can be credited with much of the technological advances the United States has made in the 70 years since the conclusion of World War II. Mixing in these German minds with the American scientific community resulted in projects like MKULTRA. Everything from Space innovations to airplanes has German fingerprints and the blood of holocaust victims all over it. [Source]

After Paperclip

Operation Paperclip spawned a number of projects within the next decade, most of which came about within 5 to 6 years. The majority of these projects were precursors to MKULTRA. Let’s check out a few.

Project CHATTER

Project CHATTER was the first in a series of mind control and brainwashing projects initiated by the U.S. Navy in 1947. It was the U.S. response to successes the Soviets had accomplished with truth drugs. It was terminated in 1953.

Project BLUEBIRD

In 1950, then CIA director, Allen Dulles approved the start of a new umbrella Project codenamed BLUEBIRD. The objectives were:

●  Establish a means of training and conditioning for personnel that would prevent the extraction of secret information from them by known means

●  Investigate a method to control someone by interrogation techniques

●  Investigate memory enhancement

●  Establish a defense against hostile control of agency personnel

These objectives were laid out as A, B, C, and D in a January 1952 document obtained from the CIA Reading Room. [Source] The problem with Project BLUEBIRD was that A was the only objective that had been met and it was taking too much time to reach the remaining 3.

The document goes on to talk about an individual with “certain operations security clearance” who wasn’t a citizen of the United States being interviewed and interrogated by BLUEBIRD for 3 days in February of 1951. A full two pages of the document have been redacted, but it goes on to talk about the SI and H techniques. This is apparently code for the techniques set forth in the Project objectives. Project BLUEBIRD was renamed ARTICHOKE.

Project ARTICHOKE

Project ARTICHOKE is credited with being the Project that encompassed the idea of a Manchurian Candidate: a person who has been persuaded without their knowledge to work toward a specific interest. ARTICHOKE explored the methods of ARTICHOKE on a deeper level. Through the use of hypnosis, forced morphine addiction, morphine withdrawal and other techniques, the project wanted to control an individual “to the point where he will do our bidding against his will and even against fundamental laws of nature, such as self-preservation”. [Source] There is a memo from Richard Helms to CIA Director, Allen Dulles, that indicates ARTICHOKE became MKULTRA on April 13, 1953. [Source]

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD)

Did LSD spur on MKULTRA? Well, it sure didn’t impede the Project, and was a large part of the experimentation that overshadows it.

In 1951, the CIA became aware of a surplus of LSD for sale from Sandoz Pharmaceuticals, the Swiss company who manufactured the psychedelic, mind-altering drug. [Source] Rather than allow the purported 100 million doses fall into the wrong hands, the United States moved to buy them. It ended up only being 40000 doses in truth, but they were now the property of the U.S. What to do with all that LSD? Why, experiments, of course! [Source]

To say the CIA was irresponsible with their testing is a gross understatement. They conducted experiments on unwitting people, drug addicts, military members, and many others. As a United States citizen, it was my understanding that the purpose of the CIA was to monitor the chatter out there for threats to the country. Instead, we now learn that they were essentially playing pranks on citizens with a potentially deadly drug.

In 1975, two years after the supposed shut-down of MKULTRA, Congress began an inquiry. As usual, the CIA maintained their silence and records were destroyed. Two years later, a Freedom of Information Act inquiry brought to light how the CIA had danced with LSD for the better part of the 1950s and 60s.

As a result, we learn about Sidney Gottlieb, a club-footed, stuttering oaf of a doctor and scientist, who ran the technical division of the CIA. Directly under Gottlieb was George Hunter White who headed up the LSD experiments. White was no stranger to the law enforcement community. He was busting up Chinese opium dealers as an undercover Heroin trafficker in New York. He ended up having to leave the state as a result when he dug up some dirt on the governor. Ultimately, White was the man for any jobs that required ruthlessness, heartlessness, and someone willing to step outside the Law and social acceptance. [Source]

The third person involved in this particular round of LSD experiments dubbed Operation Midnight Climax was narcotics agent, Ike Feldman. Feldman had no problem masquerading as a pimp and racketeer. In fact he was quite comfortable doing the dirty work for George White. The experiments they carried out were absurd and somewhat sadistic.

They began with White and his wife throwing parties in their New York apartment. They would serve the guests LSD-laced martinis, and White would observe the the unknowing guests as the drug took hold. This usually resulted in one of two ways: they either experienced giddiness and euphoria or had a bad trip.

Eventually, the CIA funded a safe house in San Francisco where further tests were carried out. This is when White brought on Feldman. It was here that Feldman’s pimp acting skills worked in his favor. They would lure heroin addicts to take part in testing by paying them with heroin. They would bring in prostitutes and have them go out and bring in johns to whom they gave LSD-laced drinks. White would observe from behind two-way mirrors and take notes on the depraved results.

White dove whole-hearted into the culture and would often pose as a sailor or an artist to lure in more test subjects. It’s quite possible that he was on LSD himself since there was a culture of CIA agents around that time who had taken the drug. They did this in hopes to better handle themselves in the event they were given the drug by an enemy. Perhaps this was the reason that they continued the tests even when their co-workers were paying the price. Like Wayne Ritchie, he lost his mind after a night of boozing and acid and ended up being arrested for armed robbery. Wayne Ritchie could still recall that night clearly more than 50 years later. [Source]

Then, there was the curious case of Frank Olson. Olson was a scientist specializing in bacteria and biological warfare employed at the Army’s Biological Laboratory at Fort Detrick, Maryland. The CIA worked jointly with Olson’s division on bioweapons and toxic agents. This put him in direct contact with CIA projects, and as a result, he traveled to Europe in 1953 where he witnessed a number of interrogations. It is alleged by Olson’s family in a lawsuit from 2012 that it was during these interrogations that the CIA committed murder using substances that Olson helped develop. It was at this time that Intelligence Officers seemed to notice Olson having mixed feelings about his work with the agency.

Whatever the case, Frank Olson emerged from the European visit shaken and disclosed to his wife and a co-worker that he wished to resign from his work. On November 19, 1953, Olson was given brandy spiked with LSD unbeknownst to him. He was then taken to Manhattan for psychiatric evaluation and treatment because agents advised he had become unstable and violent. On November 24, at 2:30am, Frank Olson leapt, fell, or was thrown from a 10th story window at the Statler Hotel to his death. The fact that he was given LSD was hidden from his family until his case was reopened during investigation into the Watergate scandal in the 1970s. At that time, his family was paid a settlement by the United States government and President Gerald Ford apologized to them. In 1996, the Olsons had Frank’s body exhumed and new evidence of a possible blow to the head was found. However, their efforts to reopen the case in court have failed so far. [Source][Source][Source]

With all of the lies, cover-ups, and gaps in the evidence, it’s difficult to know what really happened to Dr. Olson. However, with interviews existing with the likes of Wayne Ritchie and Ike Feldman, we know that Operation Midnight Climax and the umbrella Project MKULTRA were real. We also know the circumstances of these Projects weren’t always carried out according to any sort of ethical protocol.

Barbara Newsome had a bad trip as well. She was an acquaintance of George White, and attended one of his parties with her 20-month old daughter. Despite the little girl being present, White gave Newsome a dose of LSD anyway. Apparently, it was standard procedure for White to turn test subjects out on the street when he was finished with them, and Newsome was no exception. Newsome went on to be committed to mental institutions on and off for 20 years and was never the same again. She never told her husband what happened, but he put two and two together years later when MKULTRA was investigated. [Source]

As a footnote, White retired to Stinson Beach, California in 1965. Feldman retired later after failing to hold a job with the DEA. Most shocking, Dr. Gottlieb, the club-footed man who gave Stanley Glickman an LSD-laced drink in France in 1952 that resulted in Glickman eventually becoming an odd fixture in a New York neighborhood spent his last days volunteering. He helped AIDS and cancer patients saying he was now working “on the side of the angels instead of the devils”. None of these men faces prosecution of any type. [Source]

The Documents

Seven boxes of documents about MKULTRA were found in 1977 and a Senate hearing was conducted where the CIA Director, Admiral Stansfield Turner, gave a statement regarding the papers and the Project. An investigative reporter named Seymour Hersh uncovered the destabilization of foreign governments by the CIA, in addition to its covert testing on thousands of unknowing American citizens in 1974. By January of 1975, the Senate voted by a landslide to establish an 11-member investigating body to explore the findings. [Source]

The Church Committee, so named because it was headed up by Idaho senator, Frank Church, went through more than 100000 documents to try and piece together the history and happenings of the questionable activities of the intelligence community. They conducted 800 interviews with individuals from the CIA and FBI. They also held 250 executive and 21 public hearings about the abuses.

The committee wasn’t exempt from criticism though. Critics accused the committee and its work of being a means to accelerate Senator Church’s possible presidential campaign. In spite of the criticism, the committee released a detailed report in April of 1976. They also established that Congress must provide ongoing surveillance of the intelligence community. [Source]

Even so, little was known prior to the documents being found. Not only because of the  destruction of documents in 1973, but also because in 1963, the Inspector General outlined that: “Present practice is to maintain no record of the planning and approval of test programs.”

Of utmost interest were the following aspects:

●  Where the documents were and why they weren’t located before

●  The nature of the material

●  Is there any new information in the material

●  What are the most significant finds in the documents

In his prepared statement, Admiral Turner then goes on a rather long-winded foray about how and why the documents weren’t found during either the 1973 destruction of files or the Church Committee investigation. It seems the documents were shipped to an archive for Retired Records outside of Washington, D.C. Due to document search protocol, the documents had been overlooked at this location. The 1977 discovery of the documents was the result of a Freedom of Information Act request regarding behavioral drugs. The documents had been stored in the Budget and Fiscal section of the facility. This wouldn’t normally be an area explored when searching for documents on behavioral drugs and the documents were only found due to the dedication of the employee who located them. For this reason, it was not believed that any effort had been made to conceal the documents on purpose.

The nature of the information in the documents is mostly financial; therefore, there isn’t a lot of discussion about the nature of the projects therein. In essence, the documents fall into 3 categories:

Documents pertaining to the 149 subprojects of MKULTRA which appear to have something to do with research into behavior modification, drug buying, and testing of drugs on unknowing citizens

Two boxes of miscellaneous papers pertaining to audit reports and funding

Documents pertaining to 33 subprojects funded under MKULTRA that have nothing to do with behavior modification, drugs, or anything remotely related

Of course new findings were limited by the fact the documents were almost solely financial in nature. Even so, the documents allowed the identification of 185 researchers who were not affiliated with the government who all worked on one or more of the 149 subprojects. The names of 80 institutions who worked on MKULTRA were ascertained from the documents; some in conjunction with the researchers. These institutions included:

●  44 colleges or universities

●  15 research foundations including chemical and pharmaceutical companies

●  12 hospitals in addition to those affiliated with universities

●  3 prisons

The documents also outlined a possible improper donation made by the CIA to the building fund of one of the institutions. The donation of $375,000 was made through an intermediary which made it appear to be a donation by a private party. This would have qualified the donation for the government to match it. This made the entire thing seem shady as though the CIA were paying off the institution for something.

The documents corroborate the existence and funding of safe house in both New York and San Francisco and specified the 3 players in Operation Midnight Climax as opposed to just one as previously thought. Also, some testing took place at a State hospital which involved unwitting criminal, sexual psychopaths incarcerated there. Testing took place to develop a knock-out drug for pain management in cancer patients.

As a result of the findings, there was a significant problem for the institutions and researchers involved who may not have been aware of the CIA funding or who they were working for. Thus, the identities were released on a classified basis when the documents were first found. Wasn’t that nice? They showed more regard for the people who worked on the Project than those who suffered the rest of their lives as a result of the experiments.

Prior to these documents being found and released, the primary document available about MKULTRA was the 1963 Report from the CIA Inspector General. This report is the first link in the Addendum of this book. In the Senate’s 1977 report on the newly-found documents, they grouped them into 15 categories with the subcategories listed underneath as follows:

Research into the effects of drugs and/or alcohol
- 17 projects that probably didn’t involve human testing
- 14 projects that definitely included human testing on volunteers
- 19 projects that probably included human testing on volunteers
- 6 projects that included human testing on unwitting subjects

Research on hypnosis
- 8 projects; 2 of which included testing of hypnosis and drugs combined

7 projects involving obtaining chemicals and drugs

4 subprojects studying magician's’ sleight of hand to handle drugs covertly

9 projects studying behavior, sleep, and changes in behavior during psychotherapy

Unknown number of projects involving library searches and the attendance of conferences about behavior modification

23 projects that study motivational technique, defectors, and assessment of behavior and training techniques

3 subprojects on polygraph research

3 subprojects on funding external research for MKULTRA

6 subprojects researching drugs, toxins, biological substances in human tissue, acquisition of exotic pathogens, and effective delivery systems of all

3 subprojects whose purposes are not specified in the found documents

Subprojects involving financial support for unnamed research activities at the Army Special Operations Division at Fort Detrich, Maryland - this was where Frank Olson worked if you recall from the previous chapter.––––––––Project MKNAOMI -  active from the 1950s to the 1970s and involved a collaboration between the U.S. Army and the CIA to develop, test, and maintain biological agents and methods to effectively deliver them to humans, animals, and crops. Any further documentation on the Project is scarce.

Single subprojects pertaining to:
- the effects of electric shock
- harassment techniques
- the analysis of extrasensory perception
- gas-propelled sprays and aerosols
- 4 subprojects pertaining to sabotage of crops and other materials

1 or 2 subprojects on each of the following:
- blood grouping
- controlling animal activity
- storing and transferring energy using organic systems
- stimulus and response in biological systems

3 subprojects that were canceled before any work was done:
- drug screening
- brain concussion
- biologically active substances to be tested through the skin of human volunteers

The Senate identified after all of this that the principle findings gained from the new documents were these aforementioned things:

●  Information on Operation Midnight Climax and the safe houses involved, unwitting human testing, and the fact that there were 3 people who orchestrated the Projects rather than the 1 that was previously reported

●  The inappropriate donation to the building fund of the institutions

●  Unwitting testing done on the criminal sexual psychopaths at a State hospital and the knock-out drug research

Furthermore, the Senate expressed that they felt they had a moral obligation to protect the researchers and institutions from embarrassment or damage to their reputations as a result of the new information. One must wonder, though, where was this “moral obligation” when it was decided to test some of this stuff on people who were unaware that testing was taking place?

In 1977, at the time of the Senate hearing, it was stated by Admiral Turner in the hearing that at that point, the CIA was no longer conducting human testing in any capacity on witting or unwitting people. Following Turner’s statement, each Senator was given 10 minutes to ask questions and discuss the information presented. The general reaction of the Senate was shock and disdain with the large amount of corruption that stemmed from MKULTRA. The report is an interesting read to say the least. [Source]

Uncovering MKULTRA

Following the development of Project MKULTRA, as stated, numerous subprojects and variations came into being as well. Given the checkered past of the Project, it is not always easy to prove through documents, but we will do our best. Soon after MKULTRA was in full swing, a variant of the program for use overseas was developed called MKDELTA. [Source][Source] Besides the premise of seeking to master mind control through various means, MKULTRA may have possibly fueled several plots to drug Fidel Castro.

MKULTRA even leaked into Canada via the eagerness of a rather sadistic doctor in Montreal by the name of Donald Ewen Cameron. While this book seeks to explore the extent of the program in the United States, my ultimate goal is to uncover the inhumane nature of MKULTRA altogether. To that end, I will briefly explore this aspect.

The CIA is everywhere. The nature of their purpose makes them an international agency, so it’s very easy for them to expand their projects to include the entire globe. MKULTRA was no exception. Dr. Cameron started in early 1957, and even coined his own terms for certain aspects of his experimentation such as: “psychic driving” and “depatterning”. Cameron, himself, described his experiments as follows:

●  He liked to call electroshock “depatterning”. It sought to break down repetitive behavior through intense shocks

●  Intense repetition of a verbal signal for 16 hours a day; 6 to 7 days in a row. Cameron referred to this as “psychic driving”

●  Sensory deprivation during the above intense repetition

●  Cameron followed the psychic driving with 7 to 10 days of induced sleep [Source]

Can you even imagine? Who wouldn’t be blank page after that?

Frank Olson is the only acknowledged death of the Project; however, multiple victims have come forward, We will take a look into that a little later. First, let’s find out what we can about the subprojects we have names for:

●  MKCOTTON - MKULTRA Subproject 63 - It is alleged that MKULTRA became MKCOTTON. It’s not that hard to believe. When they discontinued ARTICHOKE, the Project did not die, it became MKULTRA. Who’s the say the same thing didn’t happen with MKULTRA? It makes it easy to say the Project was dissolved in 1964, but that not be the entire truth. [Source]

●  MKNAOMI - Project MKNAOMI covered some details developed between 1952 and 1970 by the Special Operations Division (SOD) at Fort Detich. These details included darts coated with a biological agent and several different pills that could be administered by intelligence agents. SOD also developed a gun that could fire a dart say at a guard dog, agents could then enter the premises, and then bring the animal back into consciousness when they departed. Conspiracists believe the biological agents developed under this project included the likes of A.I.D.S. and the cause of Morgellons Disease. [Source]

●  MKCHICKWIT - There is very little information on this Project, but its apparent purpose was to track down new drugs in Europe and Asia and obtain samples. [Source]

●  MKSEARCH - MKULTRA allegedly became MKSEARCH in 1964. The program did not end, but merely changed names. Unfortunately, there is very little to be said about MKSEARCH including an end date. Project Monarch may have resulted from MKSEARCH if it is real. [Source][Source]

●  MKOFTEN - MKOFTEN was a partner program of MKSEARCH that tested the behavioral and toxicological effects of drugs on humans and animals. Don’t get this one confused with Operation Often. [Source]

Operation Often was a 1969 CIA project. It may or may not have been a part of MKULTRA. Operation Often explored the supernatural, black magic, and occult. Dr. Sidney Gottlieb of Operation Midnight Climax fame, headed up a team of agents who explored and interviewed palmists, fortune tellers, clairvoyants, Satanists, witches, warlocks, psychics, demonologists, mediums and more to see if they could benefit the intelligence community. Supposedly by 1971, there were 3 astrologers on the payroll who would sit in a room and scour magazines looking for anything that would trigger them psychically. They also employed 2 Chinese palmists and went to great lengths to obtain palm prints of Fidel Castro. [Source][Source]

●  Operation SPELLBINDER - Operation SPELLBINDER was the resurrection of Operation MINDBENDER after Richard Helms became Director of Central Intelligence in 1966. Helms was gung-ho on mind control research and development. He revived all of the programs and initiated new ones to further expansion in the field. Helms is also the one who tried to scrub MKULTRA from the record upon his departure from the agency in 1973. SPELLBINDER sought to create a sleeper assassin...a real Manchurian Candidate. [Source]

The Ten Boxes

So what of those 10 boxes? What was in them? What were all of those subprojects? You can thumb through it all by downloading the supplement content that goes with this book. In the meantime, here’s a list of what the boxes contained.

This rabbit hole is crazy deep, eh?

The Survivors

In the last few decades, survivors of MKULTRA have come out of the woodwork. The thing is, the U.S. government doesn’t want to publicly acknowledge this kind of stuff. They especially don’t want to acknowledge it regularly, and don’t even consider adding any of it to a history book. Think about it. Think back on your school days. Those history books are a white-wash of American patriotism and heroism, aren’t they? It leaves us nearly unable to fathom what is contained in these pages, and some of us may not be able to accept it at all...ever.

Below are three transcripts of videos from testimony given at the hearing of The President’s Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experimentation in Washington, D.C. on March 15, 1995. Valerie Wolf is the therapist of the other two women.

Valerie Wolf - Therapist

This testimony is compelling. Valerie Wolf is the therapist for the following two women. She states in her testimony that in the approximate week and a half she had to put it together, she received contacts from 40 therapists all across the country whose patients recounted similar accounts of abuse. She and these women have attended this hearing from Louisiana with the express purpose of raising awareness. Even though, the United States unwittingly tested radiation on citizens, it also tested mind control in the same manner. It many ways, the mind control experiments were more sinister. Watch her testimony.

Christine DeNicola - Survivor

Christine DeNicola is a mind control experimentation survivor. Here, she gives her testimony to the President’s Advisory Committee in 1995. She, and others like her, testified in order to implore the president to open a new investigation into human experimentation. See her testimony.

Claudia, another survivor, suffered at the hands of the government for more than 30 years from 1957 to 1954. She name the names! Watch here.

Their testimonies are among the best evidence for MKULTRA and the possible existence of Project Monarch.

You can also read their entire testimonies as well as a Q&A that occurred after they were finished speaking. Here is a transcript. I urge you not to skip over this compelling evidence.

Famous Survivors

Ken Kesey - Author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest was an MKULTRA volunteer and ended up continuing his experimentation with LSD outside of the Project. He is credited with bringing LSD to American youth and influencing the hippie movement. [Source]

Robert Hunter - The lyricist for the Grateful Dead was another early participant alongside Ken Kesey and was paid to take LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline and report their experiences. [Source]

James “Whitey” Bulger - The Boston mobster volunteered for MKULTRA while at Leavenworth in 1963. [Source]

Ted Kacynzski - Yes, the Unabomber. He underwent some testing at Harvard during this time that involved intense stress. [Source]

Other Survivors

These few videos are gems because it allows us to corroborate claims from others with content from a legit government hearing. These 3 women aren’t the only ones. There are hundreds of people out there who claim to be survivors and even some who claim to be recent survivors. The problem is that their claims are difficult to prove. Just off the top of my head, I can name the following names of people who claim to be MKULTRA survivors:

●  Brice Taylor

●  Cathy O’Brien

●  Arizona Wilder

●  Roseanne Barr

●  Paul Bonacci

Type any of them into Google or YouTube, and you’ll have endless hours of research.

Project MONARCH - Is it Real?

Well, that would be nice to know, but if documents exist about Project MONARCH, they are still classified. Apparently because they could jeopardize national security. As we learned when Frank Olson’s family tried to bring his case back into court, “national security trumps all”. Project MONARCH, if it does or did exist would most certainly fall under the MKULTRA umbrella. It would also rival it in terms of horror. Due to these things, researching Project MONARCH is very difficult, especially in terms of trying to author a strictly factual publication.

The term “monarch” has a 2-fold meaning: it refers to the light-headed feeling experienced during electroshock therapy and a symbolic meaning relating to the Monarch butterfly and the metamorphosis from caterpillar to butterfly. The sinister side of MONARCH is that it is a trauma-based programming. It uses various forms of trauma to completely tear down a person, induce multiple personalities, and program that person using various means to do a predetermined job.

Each time a person is traumatized, a file or alter is created. Each alter is “programmed” for a different job. Victims of MONARCH programming are 75% female because of their high pain threshold and the reality that they are easier to split into multiple personalities. A MONARCH victim is referred to as a slave and their handler is their master. It is theorized that MONARCH slaves have been sold to handlers via beauty pageants, have been programmed to serve as sex slaves to U.S. Presidents and other political figures, and that they’ve also been programmed to act as a personal hard drive and messenger between members of the ruling elite.

The 6 levels of MONARCH programming and the purpose of each:

ALPHA - A general programming within a strong base personality. This level is characterized by a photographic memory, physical strength, and sharp vision.

BETA - Sexual programming that eliminates an moral instincts or inhibitions of any kind. Some alters may exhibit feline characteristics.

DELTA - Killer programming developed originally for special operations agents and soldiers such as Delta Force, Navy Seals, and 1st Battalion. Characteristics include controlled aggression, fearless, and systematic. Deltas often include a self-destruction layer in their programming.

THETA - Psychic programming. Since psychic abilities can’t really be programmed, this level includes brain implants, fancy computers, and even satellite tracking.

OMEGA - Also known as Code Green, this level includes self-destruct programming. This is usually activated when a slave enters therapy or rehabilitation and remembers too much. They tend to be suicidal and self-harming.

GAMMA - Misinformation and misdirection programming. This level seeks to deceive.  [Source]

I was unable to corroborate MONARCH through any means except witness and survivor writings. There are numerous writings online, books, websites, and videos outlining survivor experiences in detail. The problem is that NONE of them can be confirmed or denied through any other means.

As I was thumbing through Cathy O’Brien’s book, I noticed that some of her statements matched events that can be corroborated and were happened and reported sometimes before the available details on MKULTRA became available. For example on Page 85 of TRANCE Formation of America, Cathy mentioned her father taking a 2-week MKULTRA course at Harvard. If you recall, Ted Kacynzski, underwent testing at Harvard, so we know it was one of the 44 colleges and universities. The book also includes a lot of pictures and papers from different phases of Cathy’s life.

What makes her story and others like it unbelievable is the sheer absurdity of her claims. I honestly don’t know if they are true, but I don’t see where she or others have really gained much by telling their stories. I’ve read a total of three books on MONARCH programming and the survivors, and if it’s a lie, it’s one of the most finely crafted I’ve seen...much better than the cover-ups of MKULTRA itself. I implore you to form your own opinion based on your own research.

The Conspiracy Theories

The conspiracy theorists have a hayday with this one. It’s only natural given the nature of MKULTRA and the fact that a large chunk of the records were destroyed. Heck, I believe ALL of the records would have been destroyed if they’d been found in 1973. Anytime you have secrecy combined with cover up and you mix in a bit of human testing, it’s a given that theories will arise. If the public ever gets a hold of one part of the story, they will build their own conclusions to fill in the missing pieces.

The majority of the conspiracy theories that have stemmed from MKULTRA theorize that various killings and assassinations over the 20th century have been the result of mind control. Some of these include:

●  Sirhan Sirhan - Robert Kennedy’s assassin

●  Timothy McVeigh - planted the bomb at the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City

●  Charles Manson and the Manson family

●  Jonestown

There are so many more. In addition to mind control spurring on so many theories, there’s also a good bit of Project MONARCH theorizing going on as well. There are countless videos on YouTube claiming that the majority of the entertainment industry is made up of Monarch slaves. Again, I’ll leave it up to you to decide if there’s enough evidence to prove the conspiracies.

From The Author

Honestly, I’m not sure where I stand on this one, Folks. I know MKULTRA was real. I buy that one completely, but this MONARCH stuff is unbelievable. You know what they say, “the truth is stranger than fiction”, but in this case it’s also scarier and a lot more personal. When I think about it in reference to what we know about MKULTRA, it is a bit easier to think that this might have actually happened.

In reflecting on what Valerie Wolf said in her testimony...she stated when she was preparing for the hearing, she was contacted by other therapists across the country. In this correspondence she said that stories from different survivors corroborated each other. These survivors were from different location and had never met. At the very least, the evidence surround Project MONARCH is compelling.

If it did happen, it was definitely part of MKULTRA or the continuance thereof. It leaves me asking one question: If these were the types of programs they were doing 50 to 70 years ago, what is happening behind the scenes now?

Conspiracy Fact: Human Experimentation in the United States DECLASSIFIED

Did you know that American history is peppered with cases of human experimentation?

Could you in your wildest dreams imagine that it was happening through the mid-1970s? That is in most of our lifetimes!

I wish that I could tell you that it's a load of crap, but the fact is...it's true. Supported by dozens of declassified documents and publications, horrible human testing can be corroborated throughout our history. Conspiracy Fact: Human Experimentation in the United States introduces you to a number of appalling cases involving the most vulnerable members of society.

The book documents a handful of cases taking place between the 1840s and 1970s. That's right, for over a century, these atrocities were regularly happening. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

With reference images throughout, you can put names with some of the faces of doctors who performed tests on United States citizens without their knowledge or consent. You will read about cases of the poor, minorities, pregnant women, infants, even military personnel were not safe from their probes and needles.

That's not all, there's an addendum and a wealth of sources where the information was found. This is the first book in a series called Conspiracy Facts Declassified that will take an in-depth look at our world and attempt to decode fact from fiction.
