FTR #974 Operation Mind Control, Part 1: Creating the Perfect Killer

With recent dis­cus­sion of fas­cist mind con­trol cults in pro­gram­ming about Julian Assange, Japan (the Uni­fi­ca­tion Church) and Tul­si Gab­bard (key asso­ciate of Bernie Sanders and his Sanders Insti­tute), it may be use­ful to younger and new­er lis­ten­ers to review some of the infor­ma­tion from the AFA Archive Shows about mind con­trol (orig­i­nal­ly record­ed in 1983–1985.)

The first two pro­grams in the series review infor­ma­tion about ele­ments of U.S. intel­li­gence using var­i­ous psy­cho­log­i­cal techniques–some of them rel­a­tive­ly elementary–to cre­ate mind con­trol assas­sins. Mobi­liz­ing hyp­no­sis, psy­choac­tive drugs, clas­si­cal and oper­ant con­di­tion­ing and audio visu­al desen­si­ti­za­tion, often in com­bi­na­tion with one anoth­er, peo­ple were cre­at­ed who would do the bid­ding of their con­trol struc­ture, even when to do so would con­flict with their own val­ues and incli­na­tions.

Access­ing infor­ma­tion from Wal­ter Bowart’s Oper­a­tion Mind Con­trol, the pro­gram begins with exper­i­ments con­duct­ed in the imme­di­ate after­math of World War II. It has often been stat­ed that hyp­no­sis can­not be used to moti­vate some­one to kill a per­son they oth­er­wise would not harm.

This con­tention over­looks the tech­nique of con­vinc­ing a sub­ject that the tar­get of their actions is some­one oth­er than who they actu­al­ly are.

Under hyp­no­sis, sol­diers were instruct­ed to kill supe­ri­or offi­cers and asso­ciates, who were sug­gest­ed to the hyp­no­tized sub­ject as being Japan­ese sol­diers. It should be not­ed that attack­ing a supe­ri­or offi­cer is a major offense in the mil­i­tary.

The hyp­no­tized sol­diers then pressed rapid attacks on the supe­ri­or offi­cers and/or col­leagues, despite the fact that this behav­ior was fun­da­men­tal­ly in con­flict with the val­ues to which the sub­jects adhered. The rel­e­vant point is that hyp­no­sis can be used to moti­vate some­one to kill a per­son who has been misiden­ti­fied under hyp­no­sis.

The pro­gram then sets forth the work of Navy offi­cer Thomas Narut, using audio-visu­al desen­si­ti­za­tion to help train assas­sins. After their behav­ior had been shaped by Narut, they were sta­tioned at U.S. embassies and oth­er facil­i­ties where their skills might be deemed nec­es­sary.

The pro­gram con­cludes with the sto­ry of Luis Angel Castil­lo, an appar­ent mind-con­trolled assas­sin who had mul­ti­ple per­son­al­i­ties pro­grammed into him. Key points of dis­cus­sion about Castil­lo include:

1.-A total of four dif­fer­ent “Zom­bie states,” each fea­tur­ing dif­fer­ent types of behav­ior to which Castil­lo had been con­di­tioned.
2.-Castillo’s posi­tion­ing to assas­si­nate Philip­pine pres­i­dent Fer­di­nand Mar­cos. (We won­der if this poten­tial attempt was con­nect­ed to Mar­cos’s reluc­tance to share the Gold­en Lily loot with the U.S? Might Castil­lo have been pro­grammed to elim­i­nate Mar­cos as an obsta­cle to using the mas­sive under­ground bul­lion and jew­el deposits? Might his pres­ence have been intend­ed as a warn­ing to Mar­cos that he had bet­ter coop­er­ate?)
3.-Castillo’s pos­si­ble role in the assas­si­na­tion of Pres­i­dent Kennedy.
4.-Castillo’s pos­si­ble links to Allen Dulles.
5.-The pres­ence of a Ger­man woman–known to Castil­lo as Mrs. Kreps–who appears to have wield­ed much influ­ence over Castil­lo.
6.-Castillo’s con­di­tion­ing to com­mit sui­cide, if his activ­i­ties became known to oth­ers.
