MKULTRA Victim Testimony:
MKULTRA Victim Testimony:
CIA Brainwashing Experiments - MKULTRA
MKULTRA, was the code name for a covert CIA mind-control and chemical interrogation research program, run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence, that began in the early 1950s and continued at least through the late 1960s.[1][2][3] There is much published evidence that the project involved the surreptitious use of many types of drugs, as well as other methodology, to manipulate individual mental states and to alter brain function.[4]
Project MK-ULTRA was first brought to wide public attention in 1975 by the U.S. Congress, through investigations by the Church Committee, and by a presidential commission known as the Rockefeller Commission. Investigative efforts were hampered by the fact that CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all MK-ULTRA files destroyed in 1973.[5]
Although the CIA insists that MK-ULTRA-type experiments have been abandoned, 14-year CIA veteran Victor Marchetti has stated in various interviews that the CIA routinely conducts disinformation campaigns and that CIA mind control research continued. In a 1977 interview, Marchetti specifically called the CIA claim that MK-ULTRA was abandoned a 'cover story.'.[6][7]
On the Senate floor in 1977, Senator Ted Kennedy said:
The Deputy Director of the CIA revealed that over thirty universities and institutions were involved in an 'extensive testing and experimentation' program which included covert drug tests on unwitting citizens 'at all social levels, high and low, native Americans and foreign.' Several of these tests involved the administration of LSD to 'unwitting subjects in social situations.' At least one death, that of Dr. [Frank] Olson, resulted from these activities. The Agency itself acknowledged that these tests made little scientific sense. The agents doing the monitoring were not qualified scientific observers.

Kucinich presents Bush impeachment articles
June 9, 2008
rawstory
An Ohio Democratic lawmaker and former presidential candidate has presented articles of impeachment against President George W Bush to Congress
Thirty-five articles were presented by Rep.
Dennis Kucinich to the House of Representatives late Monday evening, airing live on CSPAN
"The House is not in order," said Kucinich to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), upon which Pelosi pounded her gavel
"Resolved," Kucinich then began, "that President George W. Bush be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate. ...
"In his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and to the best of his ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has committed the following abuses of power..."
The first article Kucinich presented, and many that followed, regarded the war in Iraq: "Article 1 - Creating a secret propaganda campaign to manufacture a false case for war against Iraq
"
Kucinich, a 2004 and 2008 Democratic candidate for the White House, abandoned a prior attempt to begin impeachment proceedings against Bush in January of this year
In April of 2007, Kucinich presented impeachment articles against Vice President Dick Cheney, but the effort went nowhere.
Kucinich exclaimed that "impeachment may well be the only remedy which remains to stop a war of aggression against Iran
"
Before leaving office in January 2007, Rep Cynthia McKinney--currently a Green Party presidential candidate--introduced articles of impeachment against President Bush as her last act in Congress, but that effort also was fruitless.
Rough closed caption transcript of the first 10 minutes of proceedings follow...
the rules are suspended, the resolution is agreed to.
and without objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table
the speaker pro tempore: will the house come to order, for what purpose does the gentleman from ohio rise?
mr.
kucinich: madam speaker, the house is not in order
the speaker
pro tempore: will the house come to order. please take your conversations off the floor. the speaker pro tempore: will the house come to order.
the gentleman from ohio
mr. kucinich: madam speaker, pursuant to clause 2 of rule 9, i rise to give notice of my intent to raise a question of the privileges of the house. the form of the resolution is as follows.
the house is not in order
mr. kucinich: the form of the resolution is as follows. a resolution, articles of impeachment of george bush, president of the united states. resolved that president george w. bush be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanor and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the united states senate. articles of impeachment exhibited by the house of representatives of the united states of america in the name of itself and of the people of the united states of america in maintenance and support of its impeachment against george w. bush for high crimes and misdemeanor. it is conduct while president of the united states, george w. bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faith fully execute the office of the office of president of the united states and best of his ability, preserve protect and defend the constitution of the united states and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be safely executed has committed the following abuses of power. article i, creating a secret propaganda campaign to manufacture a false case for war against iraq. in his conduct while president of the united states, george w. bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faith fully execute the office of president of the united states and to the best of his ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the united states and in violation of its constitutional duty to take care that the laws be safely executed, has both personally and acting through his agents and subordinates, together with the vice president, illegally spent public dollars on a secret propaganda campaign to manufacture a false cause for war against iraq. the department of defense has engaged in a years long secret domestic propaganda campaign -- the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman will suspend. the house will come to order. please proceed. . mr. kucinich: the president and the department of defense promoted a secret program for war with iraq this program follows the pattern of crimes detailed in articles i, ii, iv, and 7:00 -- strike that, 8:00. the mission of this program placed it within the field controlled by the white house iraq group, known as whig, a white house task formed -- task force formed in 2002 that ind colluded karl rove, lewis libby, mary matalin, nicholas calleo, and james r. wilkinson. the white house iraq group, or whig, produced white papers detailing so-called intelligence of iraq's nuclear intelligence that later proved to be false. this sprosed -- supposed intelligence included the claim that iraq had sought uranium from niger and that the high-strength uranium tubes were to be used for building centrifuges to enrich uranium. unlike the national intelligence estimate of 2002, the whigs' white paper provided lit rare license on intelligence. it was written at the same time and by the same people as speeches and talking points prepared for president bush and some of his top officials. the white house-iraq group also organized a media campaign in which, between september 7 and 8, 2002, president bush and his top advisors appeared on numerous interviews and all provided similarly gripping images about the possibility of a nuclear attack by iraq. the timing was no coincidence as andrew card explained in an interview regarding waiting to labor day to try to sell the american people on military action against iraq he said, quote from a marketing point of view, you don't introduce knew products in august. september 7 and september 8, 2002, nbc's "meet the press," vice president cheney accused saddam of moving aggressively to develop nuclear weapons over the past 14 months to add to his stockpile of chemical and biological arms. cnn. then national-security -- then-national security advisor race side of iraq obtain agnew clear weapon, we don't want a smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud. president bush said saddam was six months away from developing nuclear weapons and cited photos of weapons inspectors in iraq that saddam was trying to develop nuclear arms. the pentagon prop began dist military program was revealed in an april 20, 2002, "new york times" article. the program illegally involved, quote, attempts to change opinion through the use of third parties. secretary of defense donald rumsfeld recruited 75 retired military officers and gave them talking points to deliver on fobblings, cnn, abc, nbc, cbs, and msnbc, according to "the new york times" report, which has not been discomputered by the pentagon or white house. quote, participants were instructed not to quote their briefers directly or otherwise describe their contact with the pentagon. according to the pentagon's own internal document the military analysts were considered, quote, message-force multipliers, unquote, as surrogates to deliver administration themes and messages to millions of americans in the form of their own opinions. in fact they did deliver the themes and messages but did not reveal the pentagon had provided them with their talking points. robert s. bevelaqua a retired green beret and fox news analyst, described this as follows. he said, it was them say, we need to stick our hands up your back and move your mouth for you. congress has restricted annual appropriations bills since 1951 with this language, and i quote, no part of any appropriation contained in this or any other act shall be used for publicity or propaganda purposes within the united states, not here turnover authorized by the congress, unquote. a march 21, 2005, report by the congressional research service states that publicity or propaganda is defined by the u.s. government accountability office, g.a.o., mean either one self-aggrandizement by public officials, two, purely partisan activity, or three, covert propaganda. these concerns about covert propaganda were also the basis for the g.a.o.'s standard for determining when government-funded video news releases are illegal, and i quote. the failure of an agency to identify itself as the source of a prepackaged news story misleads the viewing public by encouraging the viewing audience to believe that the broadcasting news organization developed the information. the prepackaged news stories are purposely designed to be indistinguishable from news segments broadcast to the public. when the public does not know the stories they watched on television news stories they watched about the government were prepared by the government the stories are in a sense, no longer purely factual. the white house's own office of legal counsel stated in a memorandum tpwhrin 2005, following the controversy over the armstrong-williams scandal, i quote, over the years g.a.o. has interpreted publicity or propaganda restrictions to preclude the use of appropriated funds for, among other things so-called covert prop began dasm squint that view, the office of ledge -- of legal counsel demermed 1988 that a statutory prohibition on using appropriated funds for publicity or propaganda precluded undisclosed agency funded of advocacy by third-party groups. we stated that covert attempts to mold opinion through the undisclosed use of third parties would run afoul of presixth -- restrictions for using funds for propaganda. asked about the pentagon's propaganda program at a white house press briefing, white house press secretary dana pe reno defended it not by arguing it was legal, but by suggesting that it should be. he said, quote, look, i didn't know. look, i think you guys should take a step back and look at this look. d.o.d. has made a decision. they decided to stop this program. but i would say that one of the things we try to do in the administration is to get information out to a variety of people so everyone else can call them and ask their opinion about something. i don't think that should be against the law. i think it's fropet provide information to people who are seeking it and will be providing their opinions on it. it doesn't mean the military analysts agree twhed administration. i think you can go back and look and think thi a lot of their analysis was tough on the administration that doesn't mean we shouldn't talk to people, unquote...
UNCOUNTED is an explosive new documentary that shows how the election fraud that changed the outcome of the 2004 election led to even greater fraud in 2006 - and now looms as an unbridled threat to the outcome of the 2008 election. This controversial feature length film by Emmy award-winning director David Earnhardt examines in factual, logical, and yet startling terms how easy it is to change election outcomes and undermine election integrity across the U.S. Noted computer programmers, statisticians, journalists, and experienced election officials provide the irrefutable proof..
UNCOUNTED is a wakeup call to all Americans. Beyond increasing the public’s awareness, the film inspires greater citizen involvement in fixing a broken electoral system. As we approach the decisive election of 2008, UNCOUNTED will change how you feel about the way votes are counted in America..

Man is the only animal that deals in that atrocity of atrocities, War. He is the only one that gathers his brethren about him and goes forth in cold blood and calm pulse to exterminate his kind. He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel . . . And in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for "the universal brotherhood of man" - with his mouth.

Of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally, the common people don't want war: neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship . . . Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.

They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason.
Ernest Hemmingway
To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace.
George Washington
To jaw-jaw is always better than to war-war.
Winston Churchill
Today we did what we had to do. They counted on America to be passive. They were wrong.
Ronald Reagan
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.
Winston Churchill
Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.
Isaac Asimov
War can only be abolished through war, and in order to get rid of the gun it is necessary to take up the gun.
Mao Zedong
War does not determine who is right - only who is left.
Bertrand Russell
War is a bloody, killing business. You've got to spill their blood, or they will spill yours. Rip them up the belly. Shoot them in the guts.
George S. Patton, Jr.
War is hell.
William Tecumseh Sherman
"War is Peace" "Freedom is Slavery" "Ignorance is Strength."
George Orwell
Nineteen Eighty-Four
War is too serious a matter to entrust to military men.
Georges Clemenceau
War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.
Jimmy Carter
War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
John F. Kennedy
We have the finest food, the finest equipment, the best spirit, and the best men in the world. Why, by God, I actually pity those poor sons-of-bitches we're going up against. By God, I do.
George S. Patton, Jr.
We have to face the fact that either all of us are going to die together or we are going to learn to live together and if we are to live together we have to talk.
Eleanor Roosevelt
We live in a time where fictitious election results give us a fictitious president. We are now fighting a war for fictitious reasons. Whether it's the fiction of duct tape or the fictitious 'Orange Alerts,' we are against this war, Mr. Bush. Shame on you, Mr. Bush, shame on you. And, whenever you've got the Pope and the Dixie Chicks against you, your time is up.
Michael Moore
We make war that we may live in peace.
Aristotle
We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France. We shall fight on the seas and oceans. We shall fight, with growing confidence and strength in the air. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets. We shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender.
Winston Churchill
What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?
Gandhi
When engaged in combat, the vanquishing of thine enemy can be the warrior's only concern...
This is the first and cardinal rule of combat...
Suppress all human emotion and compassion...
Kill whoever stands in thy way, even if that be Lord God, or Buddha himself...
This truth lies at the heart of the art of combat. Once it is mastered... Thou shall fear no one... Though the devil himself may bar thy way...
Kill Bill, Vol. 1, movie
When people speak to you about a preventive war, you tell them to go and fight it. After my experience, I have come to hate war. War settles nothing.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
When the enemy advances, withdraw; when he stops, harass; when he tires, strike; when he retreats, pursue.
Mao Zedong
When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die.
Jean-Paul Sartre
When war is declared, Truth is the first casualty.
Arthur Ponsonby
When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite.
Winston Churchill
You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake.
Jeannette Rankin
You can't say that civilization don't advance, however, for in every war they kill you in a new way.
Will Rogers
