Pentagon Program Promotes Psychopharmacological Warfare
In The Futurological Congress (1971), Polish writer Stanislaw Lem portrayed a future in which disobedience is controlled with hypothetical mind-altering chemicals dubbed "benignimizers". Lem's fictional work opens with the frightening story of a police and military biochemical attack on protesters outside of an international scientific convention. As the environment becomes saturated with hallucinogenic agents, in Lem's tale the protesters (and bystanders) descend into chaos, overcome by delusions and feelings of complacency, self-doubt, and even love.
If the Pentagon's Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate (JNLWD) has its way, Lem may be remembered as a prophet.
(Austin and Hamburg, 1 July 2002) - The Advantages and Limitations of Calmatives for Use as a Non-Lethal Technique, a 49 page report obtained last week by the Sunshine Project under US information freedom law, has revealed a shocking Pentagon program that is researching psychopharmacological weapons. Based on "extensive review conducted on the medical literature and new developments in the pharmaceutical industry", the report concludes that "the development and use of [psychopharmacological weapons] is achievable and desirable." These mind-altering weapons violate international agreements on chemical and biological warfare as well as human rights. Some of the techniques discussed in the report have already been used by the US in the "War on Terrorism".
The team, which is based at the Applied Research Laboratory of Pennsylvania State University, is assessing weaponization of a number of psychiatric and anesthetic pharmaceuticals as well as "club drugs" (such as the "date rape drug" GHB). According to the report, "the choice administration route, whether application to drinking water, topical administration to the skin, an aerosol spray inhalation route, or a drug filled rubber bullet, among others, will depend on the environment." The environments identified are specific military and civil situations, including "hungry refugees that are excited over the distribution of food", "a prison setting", an "agitated population" and "hostage situations". At times, the JNLWD team's report veers very close to defining dissent as a psychological disorder.
Powerful Drugs: The drugs have hallucinogenic and other effects, including apnea (stopped breathing), coma, and death. One class of drugs under consideration are fentanyls. The report's cover features a diagram of fentanyl. According to the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the biological effects of fentanyls "are indistinguishable from those of heroin, with the exception that the fentanyls may be hundreds of times more potent." The report says that the drugs' profound effects may make it necessary to "check for the occasional person who may stop breathing (many medical reasons in the unhealthy, the elderly, and very young...", as well as victims who "'go to sleep' in positions that obstruct their airway".
Marketing new chemical weapons
You won't have to worry or wonder if your HMO/Crappy health insurance covers these drugs, they'll be supplied at no direct cost to you!
A year ago, Georgian president Saakashvili sent Georgian troops into South Ossetia on a murderous rampage with civilian casualties put by Irina Gagloeva, the press minister of S. Ossetia, at 1492. A much lower number – between 300 and 400, including soldiers, has been by an investigative committee of the Council of Europe. Georgian soldiers butchered their victims with great brutality. Kirill Benediktov, in his online book on the invasion(http://war080808.ru/book/war080808_book.pdf) reports that these soldiers were equipped – so subsequent searches of bodies and prisoners of war disclosed – not only with NATO-supplied food packages but sachets of methamphetamine and combat stress pills based on MDMA, aka the active ingredient of Ecstasy. The meth amps up soldiers to kill without mercy, and the stress pill frees them of subsequent debilitating flashbacks and recurring nightmares. Official use of methamphetamine and official testing of MDMA in US armed forces has been confirmed in many news reports.

This has got to be the Pentagon's wet dream; pumping up soldiers on meth, then using MDA/Ecstasy to blot out the memories of all that killing/
"Whoo-hoo Sarge, give me another shot of that stuff, I ain't done killing, it's too much fun, Yeeehawwww!"

Hesitant to ask but what is that pic, or where .. should I say ?
ReplyDeleteGuess fluoride in the water (and all the other dozens of ways they introduce poisons into our systems) isn't enough anymore, never heard of drugs via rubber bullets but their evil inventiveness surprises me not.
We've all heard of the drug experimentation they've done on U.S. prisoners over the years ... and I'm sure they're anxious to extend this to the population at large.
Tyrannical empires served by robotic, hyped / drugged up, unquestioning killing machines - sounds like a nightmare movie gone mad, doesn't it ? No conscious, just duty to empire. Coming to a town near you Amerika.
At first look the picture looks like sheep, but it is really naked people...same thing huh?
ReplyDeleteThe bastards in power are some sick sonfabitches.That is why it is so dificult for our folk to grasp what is truly going on, 'movies' are but an imitation of their psyche.
