    [Continued from part 2]

    The operation (clearly intended to bully this individual into
    submissive compliance for purposes which are still unknown)
    involved crude tactics formerly prized by the KGB.

    Whether or not legitimate U.S. Intelligence case officers were
    involved in this activity remains to be determined. Some private
    firms retain former U.S. Intelligence case officers for
    contracting out as "security specialist." The founder and CEO of
    one such firm (Gerald P. Burke, The Parvus Company, Silver
    Spring, MD) has informed us that the activities of contract case
    officers are neither monitored nor subjected to formal restraint.

    *  Use of psychotropic drugs by cooperative physicians.

    Shortly after resigning from the CIA, one of our contacts
    underwent a range of experiences which suggested that she had
    been massively drugged. One of the alleged perpetrators, whom we
    have met, alternately claims to be employed by NASA and/or by a
    firm in Miami, handling, "microwave equipment." NASA has no
    record of this person under the name furnished.

    The "experimentee" ultimately sought the assistance of a
    psychiatrist, whom her parents had located as a referral. The
    psychiatrist treated her reported "flashbacks" by immediately
    placing her on a regimen of Stelazine, which quickly aggravated
    her condition. He also made comments to this individual which
    suggested that he had a foreknowledge of her situation, and that
    he was cooperating with U.S. Intelligence. On one occasion the
    psychiatrist intimated that our contact might be employable as an
    assassin; and he repeatedly urged her to move to Great Britain
    where, he said, she would be put in touch with an unidentified
    Member of Parliament.

    Interestingly, he had a tremendous computer system in his office
    suite, which he explained as being connected by modem into a
    national level system which, in turn, connected to private
    residences. When showing her this equipment, the psychiatrist
    informed our contact that she had been "CAT scanned," pointing
    out that she was the subject of a vast series of "A's" and "B's"
    being printed out by one of the many terminals at his disposal.

    Our contact also found out that this psychiatrist kept a military
    uniform in his closet which bore the rank and insignia of a
    three-star general.

    The individual ultimately sought psychiatric support elsewhere.
    Her new psychiatrist, formerly employed by DoD, immediately put
    her on a regimen of Haladol Decanoate, Klonopin and Benzatropine.
    The combined effect of these drugs was loss of memory and a state
    of mind which, under other circumstances, might be diagnosed as
    Depersonalization or Dissociative Disorder. All three drugs
    proved to be highly addictive. Our contact, since severing
    contact which this psychiatrist as well, has finally successfully
    overcome the addiction.

                                 ***

    Another individual -- the one whose psychiatrist had informed her
    of her role in a "Pavlovian Experiment" -- was subjected to
    attempted drugging by Trazodone, one of the strongest sedatives
    on the market. The psychiatrist in question kept no record of the
    individual's outpatient visits, nor of her Trazodone
    prescriptions. Being unaware that the individual was not
    adhering to his regimen, the psychiatrist urged her rapidly to
    increase her dosage, renewing her 30-day prescription after a
    period of only 11 days.

    Though aware of her heart condition, he failed to monitor her
    condition, dismissing her complaints of (electronically-induced)
    pains in her heart as inconsequential. Trazodone is known to
    aggravate heart conditions. Perhaps the intent was to have this
    individual succumb to a "heart attack" as the result of
    "imagined" government harassment. Neither the appropriate
    psychiatric society nor the FBI would touch this case.

                                  ***

    Another individual (a clear target of retaliation) sought medical
    assistance to counter sudden massive headaches and recurrent
    attacks of vomiting -- effects which can be produced by
    infrasound. The physician to whom she was referred (an alleged
    specialist in Internal Medicine) placed her on a combination of
    Compazine and Xanax, prescribing dosages which the Physicians'
    Desk Reference warns against.

    Compazine, in addition to being an anti-emetic, is used in the
    treatment of psychotic disorders. It can also cause dyskinesia,
    an irreversible syndrome involving loss of motor control. Xanax
    is known to induce vomiting. Both drugs can lead to dependance
    and a worsening of the patient's condition. The effects of all
    such drugs, in fact, can be mutated in high-energy fields, thus
    increasing the likelihood of adverse reactions.

    We have recently found that this prescribing "physician" is not
    licensed to practice medicine in the State of which she has been
    practicing since at least 1989.

    Our contact, being concerned about the long-term effects of Xanax
    and Compazine, consulted another physician in the same office.
    The physician immediately prescribed Prozac, failing to
    concurrently recommend that her patient discontinue the Xanax and
    Compazine prescriptions. When our contact refused to take any
    psychotropic drugs, the doctor became upset and asked, "Don't you
    want to get well?"

    This second physician is a licensed practitioner in Internal
    Medicine, with no background in Psychiatry. We also found that
    she apparently refers her patients to yet a third physician in
    the office who claims to be a psychiatrist. She, too, is licensed
    to practice Internal Medicine, only. Her receptionist described
    this third physician as having a psychiatric "sub-specialty," ...
    "as an internist."  The receptionist also informed us that this
    internist "is treating a number of psychiatric patients."

    On pursuing this further, we find that these physicians are in a
    small "medicine group" which is not listed by specialty in
    standard regional telephone directories. The group bears the same
    name as one of the CIA's most infamous recruited physicians
    (perhaps best described as "the Mengele of MKULTRA").

    The doctor's offices are located in a bank building, which, we
    have found, is a favored hiding place for security-oriented
    business and government agencies. Two computer firms, co-located
    with an attorney who represents "Island Resort Development,
    Ltd.," are situated immediately beneath the doctors' offices. The
    prospect of finding island resort developments within 500 miles
    of this attorney's office is limited.

    Our contact, being apprised of these findings, is seeking medical
    help elsewhere.

                                 ***

    In two of our cases, urologist took it upon themselves to play
    the role of "psychiatrist"; i.e., they rendered psychiatric
    diagnoses and prescribed psychotropic drugs. One of these
    urologist, employed by The Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN,
    prescribed Haldol, informing our contact that he perceived her to
    be "psychotic." His efforts at getting a Clinic psychiatrist to
    confirm this diagnosis were unsuccessful. The psychiatrist,
    apparently a rare individual who subscribes to codes of medical
    ethics, found nothing wrong with this woman, even given the
    nature of her complaints. The urologist's response to this was to
    issue his own Haldol prescription. Sensing that something was
    amiss, the woman refused to have the prescription filled.

                                   ***

    Yet another individual ended up in the hands of a psychiatrist
    who, as a purported means of ending the stress associated with
    her harassment, offered to put her under hypnosis. She described
    the hypnotic state as "equivalent to floating" and (based on her
    overall experiences with this physician) has not ruled out the
    possibility that drugs may have been surreptitiously
    administered. The psychiatrist claimed to be interested in
    psychic phenomena and demonstrated an apparently remarkable
    ability to read the individual's mind.

    While in her "hypnotic state, the individual felt like a sharp,
    painful pressure inside her nose, as if something were being
    shoved up her nostrils to the sinus cavities. She awoke to find
    blood pouring from her nostrils. The psychiatrist casually
    dismissed this as owing to a probable cold.

    Shortly after the experience, the individual began to hear loud
    tones in her head, followed in due coarse by auditory input.
    Brain scans have failed to yield evidence of an implant device.
    (We have recommended that she undergo a scan by means of a
    suitably adapted non-linear junction detector, as a preliminary.)
    Suffice to say, this individual has severed contact with the
    psychiatrist and is continuing to cope with the ongoing overt
    electronic harassment by other non-medical means.

    *  Use of medical implant devices.

    The situation just described is not our first encounter with the
    apparent use of medical implant devices in these harassment/mind-
    control cases. Another of our contacts began receiving auditory
    input roughly 15 years after she had a 4 mm. cochlear implants
    placed in her ears. The "voices" claimed to be affiliated with
    the CIA and, among other things, expressed intentions of running
    this woman as an agent in denied areas by "piggybacking" their
    audio transmissions onto standard FM frequencies to avoid
    detection.

    We have been unable to locate the surgeon who implanted these
    devices, though we do have a copy of his operative reports. A
    recent CAT scan of this individual failed to disclose the
    presence of the cochlear implants.

    Several years ago, the individual (now a psychologist) applied
    for a position with the CIA. She was interviewed by four Langley-
    based, purported psychologists, who allegedly informed her that
    her job would involve the assessments of certain criminals for
    purposes of weighing their purposes for loyalty to this agency.

    During these interviews, she was told to read several books by
    such persons as Philip Agee, Stansfield Turner and Ralph McGehee,
    all of whom were unknown to her. The alleged psychologist claimed
    that these authors had described the CIA "as it really is." Our
    contact was not asked to execute a security affirmation statement
    acknowledging the classified nature of these proceedings.

    The unconventional manner of this interview process suggested
    that this individual was being toyed with, for reason which
    remain to be determined. She did not get the job and in fact more
    recently lost her job with a state penitentiary. She was fired on
    the recommendation of the prison's psychiatrist, because of her
    insistence that she is receiving auditory input from the CIA
    personnel who persist in feeding her classified information.

    Interestingly, though this individual was deemed unfit to
    function as a psychologist in the penitentiary system, the State
    rehired her, assigning her to a mental health facility where,
    apparently, she is to develop a behavioral modification program
    for retarded adults with a diagnosed mental illness.

    This individual claimed to be receiving and responding to
    externally-induced auditory "advice" while working with prison
    inmates. It may be presumed that the process will continue. Under
    the circumstances, we have to wonder if this case qualifies as a
    benchmark in mind-control experimentation; i.e., employment of a
    mind-controlled psychologist to run the equivalent of
    mind-control experiments on mentally-ill retarded adults. We will
    continue to monitor this situation.

                                 ***

    The individual we previously identified as having challenged a
    local power company also appears to have ben "tagged" by some
    type of implant device. During a recent symposium, she was
    approached by a man whose business card identifies him as
    "Program Manager, Electromagnetic Radiation Division," DoE. His
    approach was suitably sympathetic. Our contact ultimately
    accepted this man's invitation to continue discussing their
    common ranges of interest in his hotel room. During this meeting,
    she accepted the offer of a drink, blacked out after consuming
    it, and woke up four hours later, still in this man's hotel room,
    to find that the back of her ear had been punctured and was
    bleeding. There was no evidence of sexual assault. The man glibly
    evaded this woman's request for an explanation. She has since
    found two adjacent puncture marks behind her ear, which are not
    healing properly, and between which she can feel the presence of
    a "wire" measuring approximately 1/3" in length. We are pursuing
    this further.

    The said DoE Project Manager has more recently initiated contact
    with yet another activist in touch with this Association. His
    call was unsolicited. He apparently wanted to know to know if
    this woman would be attending an upcoming conference. We have
    warned the individual to avoid any form of private meeting with
    the said Project Manager.

                                ***

    To date, we are aware of three cases involving clandestine
    behavior on the part of alleged DoE employees. The CIA figures
    prominently (if peculiarly) in the majority of the other cases.
    Two of those have been discussed above.

    I another, also involving auditory input, the individual is
    certain that the current Director of Central Intelligence (DCI)
    participated in the "voice transmission" process on at least one
    occasion. She claims to have recognized his voice. When she
    commented aloud on the DCI's perceived involvement in this
    experimentation, the "voice" responded with stuttered and
    stammered denials. We are told that this particular "voice" has
    not been heard from since.

                                ***

    In yet another case involving auditory input, the individual has
    allegedly been informed by her "voices" that the technologies
    being used against her were stolen from the CIA by a maverick
    employee, whose group is not targeting her from a distance of
    2,000 miles. She reported this to the DCI's office and was
    allegedly informed by the Deputy DCI that she will be awarded
    millions of dollars if she can produce the equipment and any of
    the personnel involved in her harassment.

    One usually-candid CIA spokesman also allegedly informed this
    individual that, "while the CIA does not deny having this
    equipment," they "do not use it in this country." Perhaps this
    explains why a number of our contacts have also been
    electronically harassed while traveling overseas.

    This woman has also been repeatedly assured by CIA DDS (security)
    personnel of the Agency's sincere concern for her welfare. During
    a recent telephone conversation with that Office, we confirmed
    that she is indeed known to the CIA. Based on this, we asked that
    the Agency "put its money where its mouth is," so to speak, by
    conducting a long-term electronic sweep of this individual's
    premises. That was two months ago. No sweep has been conducted,
    though CIA spokesmen continue to "sympathize" with her
    predicament.

                                  ***

    Another individual, a target of harassment and experimentation
    since 1952 (apparently singled out because of his student
    activism while at Penn State University) began hearing "voices"
    after having most of his teeth capped. He has been more recently
    been informed by his "handlers" that implanted devices are no
    longer used for purposes of inducing auditory input. No
    explanation was offered.  He was quite visibly surprised when
    informed by this investigator that auditory input can be achieved
    solely by means of pulsed microwave audiograms (discussed in Part
    I of this report).

    The individual's "handlers" allegedly have also stated that their
    experiments on U.S. citizens are in pursuit of a variety of
    objectives; viz.,

    (1)  develop an effective means for creating a perfect,
         "robotized" soldier;

    (2)  alter individual sexual performances, such as by
         turning  heterosexuals into homosexuals (they allegedly
         claim to be having "difficulties" reversing the process);

         and

    (3)  enhance and destroy levels of academic achievement, at
         will, such as by degrading the performance of otherwise
         brilliant students, and by drastically improving the
         performance of poor students.

    Given the technology at the government's disposal and a
    predisposition of the part of certain governmental agencies to
    "play God" in experimental fashion with citizens' lives, these
    purported projects do not come across as being totally
    far-fetched.

                                ***

    Another case involves a woman whose experiences suggest that she,
    too, is an MKULTRA experimentee being kept on the books, so to
    speak. The woman, apparently a "pet" experimentee, found herself
    being introduced to a wide array of prominent individuals whose
    connections with the CIA she believed to be quite apparent. One
    of those she states, was Robert Jay Lifton, a well-known author
    and expert on brainwashing, whose books include "The Nazi
    Doctors: Medical Killing and the Psychology of Genocide" (Basic
    Books, 1986).

    Her experiences included a voluntary ("referral") admission to
    Hollywood Hospital, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in 1973,
    during an era when MKULTRA experiments at the Alan Memorial
    Institute, McGill University, Montreal, Canada, were only
    beginning to capture the attention of the U.S. Senate.(8)

    More recently, in 1990, she was transported to New York
    University's Cameron Medical Center, in Westchester, NY (under
    circumstance which qualify as an abduction), where she was
    forcibly wrestled to the ground by approximately six Center
    staffers and forcibly confined for a period of approximately
    three weeks. She was neither psychiatrically counseled nor
    formally tested while in that facility. The psychiatrists
    assigned to her case appeared more intent on forcing her to take
    a combination of neuroleptic drugs, to include Haldol, Navane,
    and Cogentin. (Haldol and Navane can cause tardive dyskinesia.)
    She resisted those attempts.

    A court ultimately ordered this woman released from the Center,
    stipulating that she was not to be administered drugs. On
    subsequently acquiring her medical records, under conditions
    which prevented censoring or doctoring those records, she found
    that her psychiatrists had planned to inject her with drugs (in
    defiance of the court order) on the day of her release. As luck
    would have it, she was released a day early.

    The woman states that she has met Budd Hopkins, of the Intruders
    Foundation, and that she had a long-term, confiding relationship
    with John E. Mack, Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical
    School, and the founding Director of the Center for Psychological
    Studies in the Nuclear Age (previously named, Research Program
    for the Study of Human Continuity; and, still previously, rumored
    to have cooperated with the CIA in studies of "human ecology").

    At one point in their relationship, Professor Mack apparently
    accompanied this woman to a "support group" meeting of UFO
    abductees, who, she observed bemusedly, "spent their time
    comparing [extraterrestrially] implanted devices." Professor
    Mack is on record as promoting the perception that UFO abductions
    are legitimate.(9)

    We frankly doubt that extraterrestrials who have a means to
    commute intergalactically would stoop to implanting comparatively
    devices in human beings. However, should it be proved that the
    psychiatrist, surgeon and DoE Project Manager above are
    extraterrestrials posing as humans, we will be happy to weigh
    that information. If it is similarly established to the vehicular
    "abduction" of the woman discussed above was the work of an
    extraterrestrial named Kaplan, who was posing as a human with
    Cornell Medical Center connections, we will be happy to ponder
    that as well.

    In the meantime, it would seem reasonable that the government
    would want the public to believe that extraterrestrial
    visitations are on the upswing. Mind-altering drugs,
    externally-induced auditory input, holographic projections (also
    a DoD capability),(10) appropriately focused directed-energy
    targeting, device implantations, special effects and abductions
    are all within this government's capabilities and can be used for
    purposes of creating illusions of UFO experiences. Persons not
    cognizant of this might be more inclined to fall for the UFO
    mythologies now being officially "legitimized."

                                 ***

    Other cases, possibly involving U.S. Navy Intelligence, NSA, the
    Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and, peripherally, members of the
    former Soviet Bloc intelligence services will be discussed in
    further reports.

    HARASSMENT OBJECTIVES

    In his book, Psychiatry and the CIA: Victims of Mind Control, Dr.
    Harvey Weinstein quotes the following passage from a book
    entitled, A battle for the Mind: A Physiology in Conversion and
    Brainwashing, by William Sergeant (Greenwood Press, Westport, CT,
    1957):

    "By increasing the prolong stress in various ways, or inducing
    physical debilitation, a more thorough alteration of the person's
    thinking process may be achieved. ...If the stress or physical
    debilitation, or both, are carried one stage further, it may
    happen that patterns of thought and behavior, especially those of
    recent acquisition, become disrupted. New patterns can then be
    substituted, or suppressed patterns allowed to reassert
    themselves; or the subject might begin to think or act in ways
    precisely contradict his former ones.

    "'...If a complete sudden collapse can be produced by prolonging
    or intensifying emotional stress, the cortical slate may be wiped
    clean temporarily of its more recently implanted patterns of
    behavior, perhaps allowing others to be substituted more
    easily.'"

    Dr. Weinstein then comments: "The parallel with [Dr. Ewen]
    Cameron's theory of differential amnesia is striking, and the
    relationship to brainwashing is abundantly clear."(11)  Dr.
    Cameron, employed by McGill University's Allan Memorial Institute
    in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, between 1943 and 1964, conducted
    brainwashing experiments upon select, non-volunteer psychiatric
    patients on behalf of the CIA. Dr. Weinstein's father was one of
    Cameron's victims.

    Sergeant's theorems and Cameron's associated experimental
    findings appear to be the driving force behind the harassment and
    experimentation now being reported to this Association. All of
    these individuals are being subjected to a series of overlapping
    circumstances which apparently are meant to induce and sustain
    long-term extremes of stress. All of these individuals have been
    effectively isolated. Unethical psychiatrists and physicians are
    involved in the majority of these cases. Mind-altering
    prescription drugs are being used for clearly non-therapeutic
    purposes. Evidence of LSD use is also beginning to surface (one
    of Cameron's favored mind-altering substances). And "psychic
    driving" techniques -- Cameron's pet brainwashing method -- are
    involved in all these cases, to a much greater and more
    potentially effective degree where auditory input is involved.

    The long-term objectives of these harassment and experimentation
    campaigns appear to be quite fundamental; viz.,

    (1)  induce a sense of perverted "loyalty" toward the very
         agencies engaged in the individual's harassment, to
         confuse his or her priorities where the possibility of
         obtaining legal redress might be concerned;

    (2)  redirect the targeted individual's feelings of
         hopelessness, anger and frustration toward racial and
         ethnic groups, and toward select, prominent political
         figures, to include the President of the United States;

         and

    (3)  force the individual to commit an act of violence,
         whether suicide or murder, under conditions which he
         can be plausibly denied by the government.

    An operation's ultimate success apparently hangs on this latter
    objective. We have successfully obstructed this process in a
    number of cases now being investigated.

    THE "STALKER" PHENOMENON

    In recent weeks, considerable publicity has been given the trauma
    of the victim's of "stalkers" (persons who obsessively surveil,
    harass and, in some cases, kill targeted individuals for
    assorted, unfathomable reasons). Movie stars that have been
    stalked recurrently make the news. Stalking, as a problem, is in
    fact becoming widespread, to a point where, in some States, the
    activity has finally been specifically proscribed by law.

    The individuals in contact with our Association are reporting the
    same terrifying ranges of experiences as are now being reported
    by the press on behalf of other victims stalkers. The only
    difference in the cases reported to us is that the stalkers
    operate in groups over extremely long periods of time, and (it
    would appear) with the blessings of certain agencies of the U.S.
    Government. The laws being passes to protect victims of stalkers
    are clearly being selectively applied. We hope to put an end to
    this situation; that is, in addition to achieving the objects
    discussed above.

    It should be noted that the FBI, though unwilling to intervene in
    the cases described above recently intervened on a massive scale
    to protect Joy Silverman, a Bush-appointed trustee of the J.F.
    Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, from the ardent
    "stalkings" of her estranged paramour, Sol Wachtler, Chief
    Justice, Court of Appeals in the State of New York.(12)

    Wachtler had apparently threatened to kidnap Silverman's daughter
    if not paid $20,000. Since no kidnapping had occurred, the case
    qualified merely as an attempted extortion, a question arises as
    to why the New York State Police could not have handled this
    investigation. Mr. Silverman resides in New York.

    It would appear that the FBI devoted more than 100 agents and
    technicians to the effort, resolving the case within
    approximately 30 days. On November 7, 1992, the day of his
    arrest, Wachtler ran a gauntlet of 80 FBI special agents on the
    Long Island Expressway. Apparently the FBI does not have enough
    to do, if staking out a lone stalker is their top priority. We
    have to wonder, of course, if the FBI's massive response was
    prompted by what was perceived to be Wachtler's usurpation of
    governmental stalking prerogatives.

    Mrs. Silverman's $300,000 donations to Republican Party causes
    could be considered a basis for the FBI's solicitous concern for
    her welfare. It would appear, under the circumstances, that the
    "stalking victims" discussed above -- being by now
    poverty-stricken -- should abandon all hope of FBI intervention
    in their respective situations. FBI protection appears to have a
    price tag, which not one of our contacts can afford.

    (5) Jane's Security and Co-In [Counter-Insurgency] Equipment,
    (Surrey, UK, 1991-92), as a preliminary source, contains a number
    of references to attache-case concealment devices, for use in
    surveillance/communications operations. The electronic components
    are built into the bottom interior of these cases. Obviously the
    man just described could not have carried a "microcircuitried"
    attache case aboard a U.S. airliner without first clearing
    security. We were advised by a former CIA DDS (Security) employee
    that credential-carrying members of U.S. Intelligence can bypass
    airport security checks of their carry-on luggage.

    (8) According to a Vancouver Sun archivist, Hollywood Hospital,
    Ltd. (a privately-owned institution), went out of business in
    1975, two years after this woman's hospitalization and after
    approximately 30 years of doing business. The event coincided
    with findings by the U.S. Senate Church Committee concerning the
    CIA's brainwashing experiments under MKULTRA. Our contact also
    identified the Director of the Hollywood Hospital as Dr. Ross
    MacLean -- information also confirmed by the Vancouver Sun.
    Nothing in these records, copies of which are being obtained,
    points to CIA involvement with the hospital. Perhaps a portion of
    history has been overlooked. Cornell Medical Center's role in
    MKULTRA is a matter of public record. (See, for example, Thomas,
    Gordon, Journey Into Madness: The True Story of the CIA Mind
    Control and Medical Abuse, Bantam Books, New York, 1989).

    There can never be any justification for torture. It creates an
    escalation of violence in the internal affairs of states. It
    spreads like a contagious disease from country to country. It has
    lasting effects on the mental and physical health of the victim
    and brutalizes the torturer. It is fundamental duty as human
    beings to express what is surely the conscience of humanity and
    to eradicate this evil.

    Government's continuing failure to ratify the U.N. Convention
