1932 was the same year that the Rockefeller Foundation gave an appropriation to the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Germany for brain research. This is the same institute that Josef Mengele would provide experimental materials from Auschwitz twins (see Chapter on Josef Mengele).

In 1992 before having any personal knowledge of MKULTRA, Dr. Ewen Cameron, or Wilder Penfield, I painted a picture of a Royal Canadian Mounted Police Officer driving a buggy. I had no idea at the time what it meant, just that it was extremely important. I often drew and painted scenes from my abuse without knowing their meanings till such time as my alters revealed the information. In an affidavit presented to the lawyers for the Canadian survivors of Dr. Ewen Cameron’s brainwashing experiments, Dr. Omond M. Solandt, Chairman of the Canadian Defense Research Board from 1947 through 1956, sheds light on my memories of the RCMP. He was prepared to testify that during the 1950’s the United States Central Intelligence Agency had a resident representative at the United States Embassy in Ottawa who was publicly introduced as such. The CIA representative was liaison with the RCMP. The RCMP made formal information exchanges with the CIA, and the CIA and Canada exchanged all research information of mutual interest working
in Canada, including the CIA.

In his autobiography
The Scientist
, John C. Lilly records a conversation he had with the director of the National Institute of Mental Health in 1953. The director asked Lilly to brief the CIA, FBI, NSA, and the various military intelligence services on his work using electrodes to stimulate directly the pleasure and pain centers of the brain. Lilly said it was a very dangerous area and he was reluctant to do the briefing. He also said, “Dr. Antoine Remond, using our techniques in Paris, has demonstrated that this method of stimulation of the brain can be applied to the human without the help of the neurosurgeon; he is doing it in his office in Paris without neurosurgical supervision. This means that anybody with the proper apparatus can carry this out on a person covertly, with no external signs that electrodes have been used on that person. I feel that if this techniques got into the hands of a secret agency, they would have total control over a human being and be able to change his beliefs extremely quickly, leaving little evidence of what they had done.” Pg. 91 Ten days later he gave the briefing

Major-General Albert N. Stubblebine III head of INSCOM (the Army’s Intelligence and Security Command) made frequent trips to the Monroe Institute. It was a privately owned center for investigation into the paranormal near Charlottesville, Virginia. They used an audio process known as “hemi-sync” to help induce deep altered states, which led in some cases to out-of-body experiences.

Over the course of 17 years, the program was also known as Centerlane and Sunstreak; later becoming Stargate under the Defense Intelligence Agency. Public exposure of the program was disclosed as a result of the American Institutes for Research report dated September 29, 1995, which was delivered unclassified to the U.S. Congress in November 1995. This report was compiled at the request of the CIA, which had the task of evaluating the program prior to assuming management authority of the program from the Defense Intelligence Agency.

Kennedy, was denied parole today, and his lawyer set forth the theory that Mr. Sirhan had been “hypnotically programmed” to kill Kennedy. After an hour-long hearing at Corcoran State Prison, the three-member parole panel found Mr. Sirhan, 57, unsuitable for release because he refused to take responsibility.

The eggs he harvested could be explained by another development. It was discovered that a whole nucleus containing an entire set of chromosomes could be taken from a cell, and injected into a fertilized
egg whose own nucleus has been removed. The division of the egg brings about the division of the nucleus, and the descendant nuclei can, in turn, be injected into eggs. After several such transfers, the nuclei may be capable of directing the development of the eggs into complete new organisms genetically identical to the organism from which the original nucleus was taken. This cloning technique is in theory capable of producing large numbers of genetically identical individuals.

Aarons and Loftus, op cit., 206. We know that in June 1947 the US and British Governments had issued a top secret document, FAN 757 agreeing that all Nazi screening would be done by a Joint Review Committee. The US Political Adviser in Leghorn, Italy wrote to the State Department discussing the screening of Nazi’s. “Screeners will notify Vatican names and particulars of unacceptables as they appear. It seems possible that this arrangement may result in out shipment to Argentina of many individuals who may screen Black or Grey.” Grey refers to Nazi collaborators, Black refers to Nazi war criminals.
