Certainly the Soviet Union would have kept a very close watch on this crowd and there would be many secret files on those within it from the KGB, GRU, etc. While those files are still not very easy to get a hold of, on occasion people have. As Russia is not so palsy-walsy with the USA these days, and IMO increasingly less so, it may be possible to explore what Russia has on all this. It has always been my bet that most of the secret agencies [British, French, Israeli, Russian, others] had a very good idea of what went down in Dallas, but for their own reasons kept mostly quiet. [French being a notable exception - Russians being too complex to go into here.] Just perhaps, if your line of research is on target that Russia would have the mother load. They of course were the target of the false defector and patsy Oswald, as well.

In the last year I had a lunch with a member of the central committee of the communist party of one of the many axis of evil nations who shall remain nameless for now but he said that when he was last in the Kremlin archives several years ago, a place he has been to often, the place was crawling with Americans and most of them probably not there for the archiving. He doubted there would be too much left of any significance. I think I agree with him.

These men acted with the approval and consent of the CIA Deputy Director of Planning, Richard M. Bissel, along with the Deputy Director of Operations, Lieutenant General Charles Cabell -- later relieved of his duty by President Kennedy, who he would describe as a “traitor.” Cabell’s brother, Earle, was the Mayor of Dallas in 1963 and oversaw all activities relating to the motorcade and its chosen route through the city and down Elm Street.

I am quite certain that Peter's suggestion was meant with the best of intentions and I know for a fact that his long research in these areas is worthy of the best of us.

I am also a fan of Prouty for all sorts of reasons. This thread is not the place to air these sorts of remarks, I think.

I feel we must all be very mindful of how we word our posts so as not to cause unwitting offense.

I concur with this. I remember reading that during the early Yeltsin years a team of US intel/military types spent a small fortune to purchase the right to weed out the KGB files of all sorts of important information. These guys have war games for war games and are years ahead of the curve.

As a small footnote, I know - from, ahem, direct experience - that it in the late 1990s it was possible to bribe archive staff to allow original material to be removed from Russian state archives.

My own view is that They have gutted or destroyed any "smoking guns" that They know of in official archives. However, there may still be "smoking guns" that They are unaware of and have not "cleansed" yet.

Remember "Dr" Sid Gottlieb destroyed all the MK-ULTRA papers he could find. But the old fool forgot about a few boxes of receipts. And these receipts to sub-contractors and their ilk provided the hard documentation necessary for John Marks' Search for the Manchurian Candidate.

Now, that book is arguably a limited hangout. However, without the discovery and publication of those receipts, which Gottlieb forgot to shred, there would still, to this day, quite probably be no public knowledge or admission of the crimes of MK-ULTRA whatsoever.

Dr Ewen Cameron would still be a "world class psychiatrist" instead of a CIA butcher.

So, archive research is a time-intensive and frustrating task. A task deliberately frustrated by Them. But every now and then a genuine nugget glistens in the shit They've left behind...

You are right again, David. Teenage Fascist rears it's ugly head again. Here is a quote from L. Fletcher Prouty (who is deceased and beyond taking any offense <grin>) It might just possibly convince you to move Prouty over to the column headed disinformation agent, JFK hater, witting agent of the conspiracy, obfuscator and debilitator. I am a bit surprised that you seem to be still enamored of this guy at all.

L. Fletcher Prouty at C.O.P.A. conference in either 1993 or 1994. This never made the sex, lies and video tapes either. Surprise, surprise.

"You know the Kennedys just came over on the boat, when....? right after World War I or thereabouts, and they just thought they could take over this country and run it the way they wanted to without regard to anything. Well I can trace my heritage back at least 5 or 6 generations and maybe even back to the Plymouth Plantation and the Mayflower itself, I am still looking into that. (short pause...) (Then with a sneer on his face... and real anger and bitterness in his voice.) Well, I guess we taught those Kennedys a thing or two now, didn't we?" The audience just went into shocked and stunned silence with only a little bit of barely audible tittering, whispering and chatting. Someone tapped him on the shoulder and he then continued with a more standard tone of voice and a more anti-Gov pro-Kennedy line of bullshit.

When I asked him exactly WHO were the WE you referred to in your statements regarding teaching the Kennedys a thing or two. He just stared back at me sullenly and silently. I said What is the matter? Cat got your tongue? (pause... more sullen silent staring.) More tittering, chatting, shuffling of feet in the audience. Someone in the audience said to me... Why don't you sit down? I said why don't you go phuck yourself then? Then they called a break in the questioning and spliced this incident out of the video tapes which were later sold.

Earlier some guy who looked like he could have been Barry Goldwater's son right down to the black, horn rimmed glasses confided to me during a break"

"You know Colonel Prouty is just like 'US' on the Nigger issues!" Later he said to me "You know that 6,000,000 lie about killing the Jews and the concentration camp thing was not a German thing it was a Polish thing." I said: "What!" He said: "Yeah, Auschwitz was in Poland, not in Germany you know." I faked a gut shot punch on him... and he wimped out and backed off from me as far as he could get. Fat mouth saying THAT to someone with a Polish heritage.

Now what were you just saying about Prouty the rotten lousy bastidge and the KKK supporter, the Kennedy-hater, the lineage lord, the Holocaust Revisionist and the anti-Semite, too? You still think he was telling the truth about anything? Guy from Canada did a fact-check on his New Zealand story and punched it so full of holes it sank to the bottom along with Prouty. Third Decade article. Shannon something maybe. Check out the Mary Ferrell site.

Jan Klimkowski Wrote:The issue with the False Memory Syndrome Foundation is not whether some memories are "false". Of course some memories do not represent a true, or entirely accurate, account of past events.

The issue is rather that the FMSF was set up in 1992, precisely when many victims of covert "mind control" programmes such as MK-ULTRA were remembering horrible experiments that had been perpetrated on them - often as children.

The scientists involved in these covert "mind control" programmes knew the principles of creating dissociative states and false memories through narco-hypnosis. They also had access to the raw materials - chemical and human - needed.

It's important to state, on the historical record, that much of the focus of Bluebird/Artichoke/MK-ULTRA research was directed towards the creation of dissociative states in order to be able to manipulate them (for whatever precise purposes an operation demanded).

For instance, Dr Louis Jolyon West was the Top Secret Contractor for MK-ULTRA Sub-project 43: "Studies of dissociated states" (1956).

The first page is stamped: "WARNING NOTICE: SENSITIVE INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND METHODS INVOLVED". The first page includes the following words written by West:

Quote:"The literature concerning clinical entities ordinarily considered to constitute the dissociative reactions is fairly well limited to case-studies of patients with fugues, amnesia, somnambulisms, and multiple personalities.

"Unpublished studies by the writer have led him to a greatly expanded concept of dissociation. Dissociative phenomena are found in everyday life. Such manifestations include "highway hypnosis", states of "fascination" in flyers, hypnagogic and phantasy hallucinations, transient anaesthesias, and many other examples. These reactions have many features in common with a variety of clinical disorders including "sleep paralysis", trance states, Gilles de la Tourette's disease, latah, "Arctic hysteria", and a number of other disturbances in addition to the well-known dissociative reactions of the text-books.

"There is considerable experimental evidence pointing to the significant role played by dissociative mechanisms in the production of the various phenomena of hypnosis. In fact, hypnosis may be considered a pure-culture, laboratory controlled dissociative reaction. Of the entire phenomenology of the various states described above, there is not one single manifestation which cannot be produced experimentally in the hypnotic subject. Thus, through the use of hypnosis as a laboratory device, the dissociative mechanisms can be studied with a high degree of objectivity."

(quoted on p107, Ross, "The CIA Doctors")

One can guess at what MK-ULTRA doctor, West, is referring to by his "unpublished studies". It is also revealing that West states emphatically, in 1956, that "of the entire phenomenology of the various states described above, there is not one single manifestation which cannot be produced experimentally in the hypnotic subject".

And the author of this TOP SECRET memo about MK-ULTRA research that he has conducted on humans is the very same Louis Jolyon West who became a key member of the board of the False Memory Syndrome Foundation in 1992.

Check out the link I provided in the first post in this thread listing the background of key FMSF board members.

West's background was not a mistake, or an anamoly. It was the norm for the psyop known as the False Memory Syndrome Foundation.
