Nonconsensual experiments on human subjects
Reservation: Since I don't know who is reading this, I feel I have to state clearly, that I have personally had very good experiences in my contacts with the medical profession. And I hope this information will not be used to create suspicions against the great majority of decent people working in the health-care system. Tuskegee syphilis experiment Document at The Association for the Advancement of Blacks in Health Sciences. Tuskegee syphilis experiment by Ronald B. Standler An example of the important role played by the media if and when they act. Many syphilis patients were deliberately prevented from having medication for several decades (1932-72). Doctors in contact with the patients, had been instructed not to give them any medicine. This continued for decades, but as soon as it got into the media, the experiment was discontinued. After hearing that, could you possibly be indifferent when hearing about other, presently ongoing unethical experiments which are never mentioned in the main stream media? President Bill Clinton published a 'Presidential Memo' in Mars 1997 instructing all branches of the government not to carry out experiments on Human Beings without their consent. [Federal Register: May 13, 1997 (Volume 62, Number 92)][Page 26367-26372] Memorandum of March 27, 1997 --Strengthened Protections for Human Subjects of Classified Research The following shows that the Clinton administration seems to be taking some more serious steps: The White House; Office of Science and Technology Policy For Immediate Release; 202-456-6047; October 14, 1999 Research Misconduct - A New Definition and New Procedures for Federal Research Agencies. The Administration proposed today a new government-wide Federal policy that addresses research misconduct. The policy, developed by the National Science and Technology Council, consists of a definition of research misconduct and establishes basic guidelines for the conduct of fair and timely investigations of alleged or suspected infractions. The policy will apply to all Federally-funded research regardless of where the research is conducted or by whom. - - New York Times May 24, 2000 Fines Proposed for Violations of Human Research Rules By SHERYL GAY STOLBERG WASHINGTON, May 23 -- Responding to widely publicized lapses in medical experiments, the Clinton administration announced today that it would seek authority from Congress to levy fines of up to $250,000 on scientists who violate federal rules for human research and $1 million on the universities that employ them.

Although the equipment needed is still highly specialized, it will become commonplace and capable of being used at a distance... That will open the way for abuses such as invasion of personal liberty, control of behavior and brainwashing. These are far from being science-fiction concerns... and constitute "a serious risk to society" Note that this warning, issued by the French Government (through it's Bioethics committee) concerns unclassified technology which, in all likeliness, lags far behind the classified technology used on most Mind Control victims. How come the French Government is the only western Government to speak openly on these matters? Human Research Subject Protection by Anthony N. Lalli, B.S.

Mind Control. By Harry Martin & D. Caul: Quote from part 1 in series: California has been in the forefront of mind-control experimentation. Government experiments also were conducted in the Haight-Ashbury District in San Francisco at the height of the Hippy reign. In 1974, Senator Sam Ervin , of Watergate fame, headed a U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights studying the subject of "Individual rights and the Federal role in behavior modification." (93rd Congress, 2nd Session, 1974. Sam Ervin Senate Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights) Though little publicity was given to this committee's investigation, Senator Ervin issued a strong condemnation of the federal role in mind control. That condemnation, however, did not halt the mind-control experiments, they just received more circuitous funding. Many of the case histories concerning individuals of whom the mind control experiments were used, show a strange concept in the minds of those seeking guinea pigs. Those subject to the mind-control experiments would be given indefinite sentences, his freedom was dependent upon how well the experiment went. One individual, for example, was arrested for joyriding, given a two-year sentence and held for mind control experiments. He was held for 18 years. --from part 2 in series: A national uproar was created by various articles in 1974, which prompted the Senate investigation. But after all these years, the news that two inmates at Vacaville may have died from these same experiments indicates that though a nation was shocked in 1974, little was done to correct the experimentations. --from part 4 in series: The National Institute of Mental Health went on to become one of the greatest supporters of behavior modification research. Throughout the 1960's, court calenders became blighted with lawsuits on the part of "human guinea pigs" who had been experimented upon in prisons and mental institutions. It was these lawsuits which triggered the Senate Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights investigation, headed by Senator Sam Erwin. The subcommittee's harrowing report was virtually ignored by the news media. -- Eventually, LEAA was using much of its budget to fund experiments, including aversive techniques and psychosurgery, which involved, in some cases, irreversible brain surgery on normal brain tissue for the purpose of changing or controlling behavior and/or emotions. Senator Erwin questioned the head of LEAA concerning ethical standards of the behavior modification projects which LEAA had been funding. Erwin was extremely dubious about the idea of the government spending money on this kind of project without strict guidelines and reasonable research supervision in order to protect the human subjects. After Senator Erwin's denunciation of the funding polices, LEAA announced that it would no longer fund medical research into behavior modification and psychosurgery. Despite the pledge by LEAA's director, Donald E. Santarelli, LEAA ended up funding 537 research projects dealing with behavior modification. There is strong evidence to indicate psychosurgery was still being used in prisons in the 1980's. Immediately after the funding announcement by LEAA, there were 50 psychosurgical operations at Atmore State Prison in Alabama. The inmates became virtual zombies. The operations, according to Dr. Swan of Fisk University, were done on black prisoners who were considered politically active. The Veterans' Administration openly admitted that psychosurgery was a standard procedure for treatment and not used just in experiments. The VA Hospitals in Durham, Long Beach, New York, Syracuse and Minneapolis were known to employ these products on a regular basis. VA clients could typically be subject to these behavior alteration procedures against their will. The Erwin subcommittee concluded that the rights of VA clients had been violated. LEAA also subsidized the research and development of gadgets and techniques useful to behavior modification. Much of the technology, whose perfection LEAA funded, had originally been developed and made operational for use in the Vietnam War. Companies like Bangor Punta Corporation and Walter Kidde and Co., through its subsidiary Globe Security System, adapted these devices to domestic use in the U.S. ITT was another company that domesticated the warfare technology for potential use on U.S. citizens. Rand Corporation executive Paul Baran warned that the influx back to the United State of the Vietnam War surveillance gadgets alone, not to mention the behavior modification hardware, could bring about "the most effective, oppressive police state ever created". /Unquote
Testimony to the NBAC Human Subjects Subcommittee by Allen L. Barker Nov. 23, 1997 Allen became a victim of Mind Control, after he began doing research work associated with the intelligence community. Se also his: What they did Several interesting references are given. From Allen's comments regarding the document, The Revolution in Military Affairs and Conflict Short of War, by Steven Metz and James O. Kievit, July 25, 1994, I quote: "The advantage of directed energy weapons over conventional ones [in drug interdiction] is deniability. Against whom is such deniability aimed? ...deniability must be aimed at the American people, who do not sanction the imprisonment, much less execution, of individuals without a trial..." The authors envision a "future history" of a revolution of techno-authoritarianism, carried out in stages to alter some basic values of Americans that might stand in the way. [Note the references to "spiritual warfare" -- so much for religious freedom --
His new (2000-06-03) site Mind Control, technology, techniques and politics I quote from his presentation: This site is intended to provide quality references and links related to mind control technology and its abuses. Much of the technology is truly amazing and has great potential for positive uses. But unfortunately, in practice, it has been tested on nonconsensual subjects and applied to violate fundamental human rights in almost unthinkable ways.

Part II: Resisting the Mind Control State
by Allen Barker
HERE'S HOW IT ALL CAME ABOUT by James Henry Graf, 1998 During the 1980's J H Graf tried to draw attention to the alarming fact that american authorities were performing nonconsensual experiments on mentally retarded patients in an institution. After that Graf became a victim of Mind Control as a reprisal. In the document he interprets the words from a prominent american official implying that he consciously threatened republicans who disagreed with the presidents policies with reprisals of a secret nature. And as I understand Graf, he insinuates that influencial people in the american establishment approve of using high-tech terror to discipline party members. Samples from his site:

An Agency-sponsored gross medical malpractice had genuinely shocked him. It was a horror story; he repeatedly said, "This must never happen again." (Unfortunately it did.) As a result of his investigation, over a hundred men lost their jobs in what became known as Turner's Halloween Massacre of 1977. Ten thousand pages of formerly top secret U.S. Army and C.I.A. documents prove that for decades United States government agencies undertook the most extensive mind-control and manipulation program in the history of the world (from the book "The Mind Manipulators," A. Sheflin & E. Opton). Prior to becoming President of the United States, Mr. Reagan expressed in his campaign that he would make sure the C.I.A. would never have to fight with one hand tied behind its back. Instead, he would give the Agency the freedom to carry on the war with "the enemy" by any means the Agency chose (From the book "C.I.A. Mind Control & Medical Abuse," Gordon Thomas.) We believe, as a result of such "freedom," that both my son and I are victims of a so called "Mind Control Experiment," which we are going to briefly describe below... A History of Secret U.S. Government Programs from GOVERNMENT FACTS & STATS "News & Information About Our Government and Its Activities" 2000-11-28: Scientist 'killed Amazon indians to test race theory' Alternative link to local copy Geneticist accused of letting thousands die in rainforest An article in Guardian Unlimited, Saturday September 23, 2000 by Paul Brown, Environment correspondent Thousands of South American indians were infected with measles, killing hundreds, in order for US scientists to study the effects on primitive societies of natural selection, according to the book, Darkness in El Dorado by the investigative journalist Patrick Tierney. ( due to be published on October 1) The astonishing story of genetic research on humans, which took 10 years to uncover, is likely to shake the world of anthropology to its core, according to Professor Terry Turner of Cornell University, who has read the proofs. "In its scale, ramifications, and sheer criminality and corruption it is unparalleled in the history of anthropology," Prof Turner says in a warning letter to Louise Lamphere, the president of the American Anthropology Association (AAA). The book accuses one geneticist, (who died in 1999) who headed a long-term project to study the Yanomami people of Venezuela in the mid-60s, of using a virulent measles vaccine to spark off an epidemic which killed hundreds and probably thousands. Once the epidemic was under way, according to the book, the research team "refused to provide any medical assistance to the sick and dying Yanomami, on explicit order from Neel. He insisted to his colleagues that they were only there to observe and record the epidemic, and that they must stick strictly to their roles as scientists, not provide medical help".
