How the CIA hid their MKULTRA mind-control program​

Back in the early 1990s, I spoke with John Marks, author of Search for the Manchurian Candidate. This was the book (1979) that helped expose the existence and range of the infamous CIA MKULTRA program.

Marks related the following facts to me. He had originally filed many Freedom of Information (FOIA) requests for documents connected to the CIA’s mind-control program. He got nothing back.
Finally, as if to play a joke on him, someone at the CIA sent Marks 10 boxes of financial and accounting records. The attitude was, “Here, see what you can do with this.”

I’ve seen some of those records. They’re very boring reading.

But Marks went through them, and lo and behold, he found he could piece together MKULTRA projects, based on the funding data.

Eventually, he assembled enough information to begin naming names. He conducted interviews. The shape of MKULTRA swam into view. And so he wrote his book, Search for the Manchurian Candidate.

He told me that three important books had been written about MKULTRA, and they all stemmed from those 10 boxes of CIA financial records. There was his own book; Operation Mind Control by Walter Bowart; and The Mind Manipulators by Alan Scheflin and Edward Opton.

After publishing his book, Marks continued to press the CIA for more MKULTRA information. He explained to me what then happened. A CIA official told him the following: in 1962, after ten years of mind-control experiments, the whole program had been shifted over to another internal CIA department, the Office of Research and Development (ORD).

The ORD had a hundred boxes of information on their MKULTRA work, and there was no way under the sun, Marks was told, he was ever going to get his hands on any of that. It was over. It didn’t matter how many FOIA requests Marks filed. He was done. The door was shut. Goodbye.

The CIA went darker than it ever had before. No leaks of any kind would be permitted.

In case there is any doubt about it, the idea of relying on the CIA to admit what it has done in the mind-control area, what it is doing, and what it will do should be put to bed by John Mark’s statements. The CIA always has been, and will continue to be, a rogue agency.

To give you an idea of how far the CIA, the US military, and its allied academics will go in MKULTRA “research,” here is what I wrote in 1995 about several human experiments. My information was based on the three key books I mentioned above, as well as Martin Lee’s classic, Acid Dreams:

“Dr. Robert Heath of Tulane University, as early as 1955, working for the Army, gave patients LSD while he had electrodes implanted deep inside their brains.”

“In the mid-1950’s, Paul Hoch, M.D., a man who would become Commissioner of Mental Hygiene for the State of New York, then a laborer in the field for the CIA, gave a ‘pseudoneurotic schizophrenic’ patient mescaline. The patient had a heaven-and-hell journey on the compound. But Hoch followed this up with a transorbital leucotomy [aka lobotomy]… Hoch also gave a patient LSD, and a local anesthetic, and then proceeded to remove pieces of his cerebral cortex, asking at various moments whether the patient’s perceptions were changing.”

People need to understand how the history of mind control and psychiatry are interwoven, and how the madmen and murderers within these “professions” are content to use torture “in the name of science.”

From a naturalnews.com article by the heroic whistleblower, psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin (“Never again! The real history of psychiatry”), we get insight into one aspect of that history.

Breggin: “[Before World War 2, in America], organized psychiatry had been sterilizing tens of thousands of Americans. For a time in California, you couldn’t be discharged from a state hospital unless you were sterilized. In Virginia the retarded were targeted. American advocates of sterilization went to Berlin to help the Nazis plan their sterilization program. These Americans reassured the Germans that they would meet no opposition from America in sterilizing their mentally and physically ‘unfit’ citizens.”

“While the murder of mental patients was going full swing in Germany, knowledgeable American psychiatrists and neurologists didn’t want to be left out. In 1942, the American Psychiatric Association held a debate about whether to sterilize or to murder low IQ ‘retarded’ children when they reached the age of five. Those were the only two alternatives in the debate: sterilization or death.”

“After the debate, the official journal of the American Psychiatric Association published an editorial in which it chose sides in favor of murder (“Euthanasia” in the American Journal of Psychiatry, 1942, volume 99, pp. 141-143). It said psychiatrists would have to muster their psychological skills to keep parents from feeling guilty about agreeing to have their children killed.”

The psychiatrists who later went to work for the CIA, in the MKULTRA program, were devoid of conscience. Any experiment was a good experiment. Human beings were “useful subjects.”
Here is an MKULTRA sub-project you may not have heard of. I wrote about it several years ago—

Some would say the 1940s and 50s were the most vibrant and innovative period in the history of American jazz.
During those years, it was common knowledge that musicians who were busted for drug use were shipped, or volunteered to go, to Lexington, Kentucky. Lex was the first Narcotics Farm and US Health Dept. drug treatment hospital in the US.

According to diverse sources, here’s a partial list of the reported “hundreds” of jazz musicians who went to Lex: Red Rodney, Sonny Rollins, Chet Baker, Sonny Stitt, Howard McGhee, Elvin Jones, Zoot Sims, Lee Morgan, Tadd Dameron, Stan Levey, Jackie McLean.

It’s also reported that Ray Charles was there, and William Burroughs, Peter Lorre, and Sammy Davis, Jr.

It was supposed to be a rehab center. A place for drying out.

But it was something else too. Lex was used by the CIA as one of its MKULTRA centers for experimentation on inmates.

The doctor in charge of this mind control program was Harris Isbell. Astonishingly, Isbell was, at the same time, a member of the FDA’s Advisory Committee on the Abuse of Depressant and Stimulant Drugs.

Isbell gave LSD and other psychedelics to inmates at Lex.

At Sandoz labs in Switzerland, Dr. Albert Hofmann, the discoverer of LSD, also synthesized psilocybin from magic mushrooms. The CIA got some of this new synthetic from Hofmann and gave it to Isbell so he could try it out on inmates at Lex.

Isbell worked at Lex from the 1940s through 1963. It is reported that in one experiment, Isbell gave LSD to 7 inmates for 77 consecutive days. At 4 times the normal dosage. That is a chemical hammer of incredible proportions.

To induce inmates to join these MKULTRA drug experiments, they were offered the drug of their choice, which in many cases was heroin. So at a facility dedicated to drying out and rehabbing addicts, the addicts were subjected to MKULTRA experiments and THEN a re-establishment of their former habit.

Apparently, as many as 800 different drugs were sent to Isbell by the CIA or CIA allies to use on patients at Lex. Two of the allies? The US Navy and the US National Institute of Mental Health—proof that MKULTRA extended beyond the CIA.

In another MKULTRA experiment at Lex, nine men were strapped down on tables. They were injected with psilocybin. Bright lights were beamed at their eyes—a typical mind control component.

During Isbell’s tenure, no one knows how many separate experiments he ran on the inmates.

As I say, Lex was the main stop for drying out for NY jazz musicians. How many of them were taken into these MKULTRA programs?

As Martin Lee explains in his book, Acid Dreams, “It became an open secret…that if the [heroin] supply got tight [on the street], you could always commit yourself to Lexington, where heroin and morphine were doled out as payment if you volunteered for Isbell’s whacky drug experiments. (Small wonder Lexington had a return rate of 90%.)”

A June 15, 1999, Counterpunch article by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair, “CIA’s Sidney Gottlieb: Pusher, Assassin & Pimp— US Official Poisoner Dies,” contains these quotes on Dr. Isbell:

“Gottlieb also funded the experiments of Dr. Harris Isbell. Isbell ran the Center for Addiction Research in Lexington, Kentucky. Passing through Isbell’s center was a captive group of human guinea pigs in the form of a steady stream of black heroin addicts. More than 800 different chemical compounds were shipped from Gottlieb to Lexington for testing on Isbell’s patients.”

“Perhaps the most infamous experiment came when Isbell gave LSD to seven black men for seventy-seven straight days. Isbell’s research notes indicates that he gave the men ‘quadruple’ the ‘normal’ dosages. The doctor marveled at the men’s apparent tolerance to these remarkable amounts of LSD. Isbell wrote in his notes that ‘this type of behavior is to be expected in patients of this type’.”

“In other Gottlieb-funded experiment at the Center, Isbell had nine black males strapped to tables, injected them with psylocybin, inserted rectal thermometers, had lights shown in their eyes to measure pupil dilation and had their joints whacked to test neural reactions.”

If you think these experiments were so extreme they bear no resemblance to modern psychiatry, think again. Thorazine, the first so-called anti-psychotic drug, was researched on the basis of its ability to make humans profoundly quiescent and passive. Electroshock and lobotomy are straight-out torture techniques that also destroy parts of the brain. SSRI antidepressants increase violent behavior, including homicide. Among its many documented effects, Ritalin can induce hallucinations and paranoia.

Well, all these effects are part and parcel of the original (and ongoing) MKULTRA.

But now the whole population, via psychiatry, is included in the experiment. Which is one reason why THE RIGHT TO REFUSE MEDICATION must be protected and expanded.

Including, of course, the right to refuse VACCINES.

For example, the COVID vaccines.

Nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, Jon Rappoport has worked as an investigative reporter for over 35 years, writing articles on politics, medicine, and health for CBS Healthwatch, Village Voice, LA Weekly, Spin Magazine, Stern, and other newspapers and magazines in the US and Europe
 
There are more deaths by overdose than by COVID in the average month and yet the former is just considered a footnote while the latter has been frothed up into mass hysteria.

Funny how the cure for this comes from the same people that fueled the opioid epidemic. Why are we all content to just ignore that fact?
 
Sidney Gottlieb was a pretty wild character. He actually seemed like, if he were your neighbor you’d probably think he was a cool guy...he was supposedly a man animated by humanist principles, an open-minded and reasonable person, someone who had overcome personal adversity, and a good husband & father.

But he was also involved in some really dark shit. Drugs, torture, murder...you name it. It’s remarkable how many people’s lives they ruined back in the golden age of that kinda thing, and just how amoral a lot of the experimentation was
 
But yeah, one of the government’s go-tos during the 50s would be using drug addicts and other criminals (Whitey Bulger participated in one such program while in federal prison in Atlanta, and his recollections of it are pretty wild) in programs where they’d shoot them up with massive amounts of LSD and/or other drugs/substances for weeks and months at a time, and just observe their behavior. Gottlieb was largely responsible for getting the clinics and psychiatrists these drugs and he was always interested in other people’s research and insights...and a lot of these medical professionals were just as interested in Gottlieb in making people just lose their minds, I swear a lot of those dudes were doing some mad scientist stuff back then

I also find it amusing that the most common pretense for the experiments were that they were seeking a possible cure for schizophrenia
 
That journalist must be such a conspiracy theorist.

I bet hes really fact hesitant. And who was the whacko submitting all the freedom of information requests? bet he was justly ostracised.

Edit: oh that was all real and they were totally vindicated? Good thing so many of us know about facts and science; this way we can enlighten people to our subjective all knowing truth!!

I heard they used to dose Mental Health inpatients in Canada years ago, without their permission. Sick fucks (McGill /Ontario ? stub from CBC News).

They dosed any number of people anonymously, one of which was Frank Olson - an army biological warfare scientist who (allegedly) committed suicide a week later by jumping out of a hotel window.

Great comments everyone! I was replying to one and then another one and then I just got snowed in which in point of fact is not a drug reference. So for now I'm putting this here as a placeholder while I go grab a beer.

Rappoport's article is exactly the right approach that can unite bluelighters
but it's not going to be easy because powerful forces want to split humans right down the middle every way they can: sexually, politically, racially, culturally .. and BRAZENLY doing it in a style that shows planetary aspirations... suggesting the influence of artificial intelligence or some other hostile alien fuckwits.

it's an OLD but effective technique, but rather blunt and exceptionally BRUTAL. Creates a TON of collateral damage and can even have the side effect of destroying civilizations. We hope to avoid that one or else we're going to have to ship out to another universe, one without the script:
How in 18 months we went from "15 days to flatten the curve" to
"Show us your papers if you still want to work"



@TheLoveBandit how possible would it be (in this universe) to enable Odysee, Bitchute and other independent site videos to play on BL?

Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, an experienced trial lawyer licensed in Germany and California (USA) and co-founder of the Corona Investigative Committee http://corona-inv
estigative-committee.com/ , summarizes the Committee's findings to date and reviews the current status. (Video link above)

The team of lawyers based in Berlin and California who previously have successfully litigated on behalf of small businesses and individuals against "criminal corporations Deutsche Bank, Volkswagen" among others, has made many probable assertions including this one:
"If I had been told this a year ago, I would not have considered it to be possible. Now, after questioning hundreds of experts, it is clear beyond doubt and provable: at no time was it about health."

Videos look totally wack... and thank you for resurrecting this thread.
 
And it’s still going down.. still based on pseudoscience nonsense.

You know a big problem with top secret research.. I think it often goes no where because the peers of top secret scientists can’t peer review and call them out as delusional hack fraud fucktards.


The absolute horseshit I have dealt with is pathetic on any “scientific” scale.. I mean how embarrassing. Oh man do I hope they get POPPED and exit club foot goat boy style. That one could not deal with facing who he actually was, once it became real to him, by being exposed. So it lopped it’s self❤️

I’m going to dance a jig.


Edit: That and I took this opportunity to steal their current mind control op playbook. Jesus Christmas they have out done themselves.. everything and the kitchen sink.. five trillion moving parts.. must be traumatic to justify.

You guys know about the town in France the CIA dosed with LSD?


Time magazine wrote at the time: “Among the stricken, delirium rose: patients thrashed wildly on their beds, screaming that red flowers were blossoming from their bodies, that their heads had turned to molten lead.”

A local postman at the time, Leon Armunier, was doing his rounds in the town of Pont-Saint-Esprit when he was suddenly overcome by a feeling of nausea and wild hallucinations.

“It was terrible. I had the sensation of shrinking and shrinking, and the fire and the serpents coiling around my arms,” he told the BBC.

Armunier, now 87, fell off his bike and was taken to the hospital in Avignon.

He recalls being put in a straitjacket and sharing a room with three teenagers who had been chained to their beds to keep them under control.

“Some of my friends tried to get out of the window. They were thrashing wildly… screaming, and the sound of the metal beds and the jumping up and down… the noise was terrible.

“I’d prefer to die rather than go through that again,”
Armunier said.
