7. We knew this after Nam
MK-ULTRA was developed in the 1950s by the CIA as a program to study the possibilities of mind control in human subjects. After World War II ended in 1945, victorious Russian and American intelligence teams began hunting down the engineers and intelligence officers of the Nazi war machine. The US Military rounded up Nazi scientists and brought them to America. The War Department decided that NASA and the CIA must control whatever technology had been developed. Convinced that German scientists could help America's postwar efforts, President Harry Truman agreed in September 1946 to authorize Operation Paperclip.

The Vatican provided support to the Nazis as an alliance against Communism, a genuine threat to the Church's survival. The Italian Communists would have taxed the Church's vast holdings and the Church has had a dismal experience with Communist governments throughout the world.

In 1947 the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) (that was formed after the war to locate these doctors and scientists) became the CIA.

In 1953 the CIA commandeered the entire supply of LSD from the Swiss manufacturer Sandoz. It was with LSD, developed by the Swiss chemist Albert Hoffman, that the mind control experimentation was seeded.

Military Intelligence "cleansed" the files of Nazi references. By 1955, more than 760 German scientists had been granted citizenship in the US and given prominent positions in the American scientific community. It was been estimated that at least one-third to one-half of the best known men and women in American medicine (1870-1914) received some or part of their training in Germany, including virtually the entire faculties of the medical schools at Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Yale and Michigan. The effect of this massive movement is still felt in the outlook and hierarchical structure of American medical schools

Kerry said enough about the war in 71 to get put on Nixon's enemies list when he said the troops were doing war crimes and things they shouldn't by instructions from that administration. Those people are not in the dark. We know Agent orane affected almost all soldiers over there in Nam, we know reactions to malaria pills from Gulf War and now this? They know why these killing machines are going awry but not saying......The truth is we were never supposed to see those pictures..Not those pics. We were never supposed to find out what was going on. The suicides? What about those over there? Were they suicides?
