HEADLINE: Report: Soviets Used Top-Secret ' Psychotronic' Weapons

BYLINE: By Owen Matthews

BODY:

There may be a scientific explanation for the rigid-faced inflexibility of Soviet-era border guards and soldiers, after all. Reports have emerged of a top secret program of "psychotronic" brainwashing techniques developed by the KGB and the Ministry. The techniques, which include debilitating high frequency radio waves, hypnotic computer-scrambled sounds and mind-bending electromagnetic fields, as well as an ultrasound gun capable of killing a cat at fifty meters, were originally developed for medical purposes and adapted into weapons, said journalist Yury Vorobyovsky, who has been investigating the program for three years.

"Ecology and Living Environment," an environmental and civil liberties group which claims a membership of 500 people in Moscow, has set up an association of "Victims of Psychotronic Experimentation," who have filed damages claims against the Federal Security Service, or FSB, and the government. Unfortunately, since by definition many of the victims are psychologically disturbed, there is a problem of verification.

"The Health Ministry and the FSB are doing medical experiments on over a million innocent people," said Ecology and Living Environment President Yemilia Cherkova, an ex-member of Zelenograd's local council. Cherkova wears a lead helmet in bed to protect herself against the rays she says the government beams into her flat. "They put chemicals in the water and use magnets to alter your mind. We are fighting to prove to the authorities that we are not mad." Despite these somewhat far-fetched testimonies, there is strong evidence that some kind of psychotronic warfare program did exist in the Soviet period, and that the technology may be falling into the wrong hands.

Official confirmation was first hinted at in the 1991 Soviet budget, which mentioned that 500 million rubles of the state security budget had been spent on "psychological warfare technology" over an unspecified period of years, said Vorobyovsky. Former state security and interior minister General Viktor Barannikov, sacked for supporting the 1993 coup attempt, warned in an Interior Ministry memorandum earlier that year that he had information that the mafia had got hold of the technology, though little concrete evidence has been found by police.

"We have no evidence that our local mafia has psychotronic weapons; they have enough ordinary ones," said Gennady Melnik of the Moscow Police Department. "They are not the most technologically advanced mafia in the world. It must be cheaper just to use guns." Nevertheless, the State Duma is taking the matter seriously enough to draft a law on "security of the individual," which will include regulation of subliminal advertising and pseudo-religious sects, as well as imposing state controls on all equipment in private hands which can be used as "psychotronic weaponry." The legislation brings Russia into line with Bulgaria, the only other country to outlaw such equipment specifically.

"The law is pre-emptive," said Vladimir Lopatkin, chairman of the drafting committee. "The equipment that now exists in laboratories must be very strictly controlled to prevent it from being sold to the private sector." Vorobyovsky has filmed several laboratories which are using powerful electro-magnets of the sort experts believe can be used as weapons to supposedly cure private patients of various aliments. One, the Biovolna clinic in Zelenograd, near Moscow, went private after its funding from the Defense Ministry was discontinued. The clinic has "treated" more than 7,000 people, despite not having a Health Ministry license. One of Vorobyovsky's film crew volunteered to be subjected to rays from a similar machine built by Dr. Yakov Rudakov, now a general practitioner who used to work in a Defense Ministry psychotronic research laboratory. He described feeling dizzy, lethargic and confused after exposure to certain frequencies.

The dissident writer Vladimir Voinovich described in his memoirs how the KGB used a cocktail of drugged cigarettes and electromagnets to sap his energy and induce disorientation and confusion.

"One could call this 'Black Science.' Research scientists whose funding has been cut have resorted to putting equipment costing millions of rubles to any use that will pay," said Vorobyovsky.

Another program Vorobyovsky filmed was a sound studio at the Interior Ministry's research laboratory where officers were played bursts of computer-scrambled messages encouraging them to be more decisive and fearless. Dr. Rudakov claimed that this technique was used on Spetsnaz troops in Afghanistan. The danger, says Vorobyovsky, is that similar messages can be transmitted over the telephone, television or radio to influence whoever hears them.

"Of course this project is surrounded with a lot of hysteria and conjecture," said Lopatkin, of the Duma committee. "Something that was secret for so many years is the perfect breeding ground for conspiracy theories."

# Another Arms Race With
The Former Soviet Union?

## What the Public Should Know About Electromagnetic Frequency Weapons

#### Original article published in Newspeak, 1996

The U.S. public has a right to know about a currently classified weapons program. There are many corroborating articles to confirm the existence of electromagnetic frequency (emf) behavior or mind control weapons in the U.S. and Russian arsenals.1 There is also evidence that there has been a secret race between the two superpowers to gain an upper edge and control the use of this revolutionary technology.2 Like the atomic bomb, the technology will change the perception of the world.

The U.S. public also has the right to determine the policy and use of this technology. They have the democratic right to express their opinion on issues that deeply affect their lives, but unfortunately mind control weapons are classified and are being developed without public input. Like nuclear war protesters who expressed their views and significantly affected arms control policy, there is a need for public debate on emf technology. This is just a brief overview of a very complicated and serious situation.

The best proof of this ongoing emf arms race would be from the U.S. government, but it is classified under the National Security Act.

The U.S. public was told about the secret development of the atomic bomb after it was dropped on Hiroshima in 1945. It is inevitable that history will repeat and the U.S. public will learn about the emf arms race when the weapons are used or leaked to the press. In all liklihood, only public protest can alter this course.

Behavior control and electromagnetic weapons have only been in the public eye recently.

Janet Reno, the U.S. Attorney General has discussed non-lethal weapons in newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal.3 The U.S. government is only revealing the tip of the iceberg. There has been a quantum leap of technology and many articles confirm that the technology is capable of computer-brain interface and control of every nerve in the human body. The mind control technology is as mind boggling as the landing of the man on the moon. The physics and functioning of the brain is known on a biomedical level and can be highly controlled. The implications of it's use as a weapon are as serious as the consequences of the use of the atomic bomb. The motive of superpowers to develop and control the use of mind control technology becomes obvious.

Several major publications are discussing behavior control weapons.4

It is described as electromagnetic technology and in little detail. Research is highly classified and scientists face prison terms and penalties for disclosing classified weapons research. But as a result of the breakup of the Soviet Union, international and Russian newspapers have published several articles on mind control technology.5 For example, the Moscow Times describes "debilitating high frequency radio waves, hypnotic computer- scrambled sounds and mind-bending electromagnetic fields, as well as an ultrasound gun capable of killing a cat at fifty meters..."6

And there is evidence of the use of mind control technology on a large scale.

In Stolitsa, a major Russian newspaper; "Victor Sedletsky, a scientist from Kiev, claims that the practical testing of a 'new kind of weapons based on the impact of certain frequencies on the human body occurred back in 1965. Besides, the development of an entirely new radar system allowing one to control any place on the globe began in 1982. Such equipment could be used for creating a 'psychotronic field' for brain-control."7 The existence of mind control technology is documented by numerous independent sources. These are not isolated rumors.

Many articles describe scientific research on mind control.

In the Los Angeles Times, March 20, 1976 by Norman Kempster entitled "Mind Reading Machine..."; "Scientists working under agency contracts at the University of Illinois, UCLA, Stanford, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Rochester, and in laboratories at other facilities have been able to determine an individual's alertness from his own brainwaves...It may be only a matter of time before the machines will be able to read a person's brainwaves to determine just what he is thinking." Mind control technology has been described since the 1960s and it is logical to conclude that the Former Soviet Union and the U.S. would conduct research on it's military use.

Books and articles discuss the history of behavior control and mind control research by both governments.

Most U.S. citizens have read about the Soviet and Chinese brainwashing scare after the Korean war. As a result the CIA conducted LSD and behavior control experiments which were described in the 1970s in executive and congressional investigations.8 Russia has been a very closed society but psychic research programs are documented in unclassified literature. In response, the CIA conducted psychic research, according to a 1995 CIA report called Stargate.9

And there is substantial evidence of emf research for use as weapons but it is not general public knowledge.

Some readers can remember Jack Anderson's expose' on the microwave bombardment of the U.S. embassy by Russia in 1972. As a result, the CIA developed Project Pandora to see if there were psychoactive effects from the electromagnetic radiation of the embassy. The U.S. public have no knowledge of the classified findings of this study although other sources have documented psychoactive effects from emf. There is a tremendous amount of scientific and military literature on this topic if one knows the keywords and where to look.

Many factors point to the possibility of an emf arms race and the motivations of the superpowers.

Weapon technology is advancing rapidly. Some examples are blinding lasers, pinpoint accuracy missile targeting and chemical weapons. The next weapons in the history of warfare will include the complicated emf and behavior control technologies. The mind control arms race winner has the capability to control the world. Therefore, if the opponent develops behavior control weapons, then the U.S. or Russian government would be negligent to it's citizens if they did not also. The picture of why, how and who would develop the mind control weapons becomes clear, in spite of the National Security Act.

The U.S. public should be aware of the probable misuse of emf technology.

Radiation experiments on unwitting human subjects after the development of the atomic bomb were classified and only became general public knowledge in 1994, after Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary declassified documents that verified the federal government's involvement. There is already evidence of an emf weapon testing program involving nonconsenting human subjects. Possible remedies include the revision of the National Security law so that radiation,emf or any experimentation on human subjects is conducted and monitored within the law.

The above facts and events are part of the mounting proof of a mind control arms race between the Former Soviet Union and the United States. Interested readers can explore this further on their own or they can contact the author for more information. The main point is to alert people to the consequences of a very serious issue.
