...a tinfoil hat might be in order.
These are excerpts from the book Journey Into Madness, The True Story of Secret CIA Mind Control and Medical Abuse by Gordon Thomas. The book is now out of print. [Excerpts provided by Kathy Kasten.]
[Pages 258-259]
That afternoon the first Vietcong soldier was taken to a treatment room in the compound and strapped to a table. Using a Page-Russell electroshock machine they had brought with them, the Agency doctors gave the man six separate electroshocks. Twelve hours later he received a further series of multiple shocks.
Within a week Dr. (Lloyd) Cotter began to see "evident improvement in the behavior of the patients." He was convinced that this was "a result of their dislike or fear of ECT."
In the compound, the Agency psychiatrists continued their work. They were trying to establish whether Dr. Cameron had been correct when he said depatterning could dramatically change a person's ideological views. The Vietcong prisoners had been chosen because they were what the Agency doctors classified as typical cases of Communist indoctrination.
After seven days, when the first soldier had received a further sixty electroshocks, he died.
Meanwhile, Dr. Cotter continued with what would be a busy summer, administering the "several thousand shock treatments as we started about one new ward a week on the program."
After three week, the last Vietcong prisoner was dead. The Agency men packed away their machine and flew home. Their complete failure was a further proof that psychiatric technology would still not bend itself totally -- at least not to the will of the CIA. More difficult to separate was the dividing line between treatment and torture in what Dr. Cotter did.

Throughout 1968 Dr. Gottlieb continued to preside over his empire of scientists who still prowled the backwaters of the world seeking new roots and leaves that could be crushed and mixed in the search for lethal ways to kill. In their behavior laboratories the psychiatrists and psychologists continued experimenting.
Once more they turned back on an earlier line of research -- implanting electrodes in the brain. They had done that with animals in the early 1960s, using radio signals to manipulate the chimpanzees into fighting and even killing each other. But no one had then been prepared to go further. Vietnam, with its almost endless supply of expendables, made it possible to see whether such control could be reproduced in humans.
An Agency team flew to Saigon in July 1968. Among them was a neurosurgeon and a neurologist. Their basic research had been conducted on animals at another CIA front organization, the Scientific Engineering Institute near Boston. It had been founded in 1956 under the presidency of Polaroid's Dr. Edwin Land.
In a closed-off compound at Bien Hoa Hospital, the Agency team set to work with three Vietcong prisoners who had been selected by the local station. Each man was anesthetized and the neurosurgeon, after he had hinged back a flap in their skulls, implanted tine electrodes in each brain.

The CIA has declassified 18,000 pages of documents on Mind Control Research.

To the Scoffers - they don't declassify non-existent documents.
this is amazing.
Frightening also in its documentation of betrayal and murder by special interests running OUR government.

What is in the stuff they have not declassified?
What are they up to now?
