A Nation Betrayed: Secret Cold War Experiments Performed on Our Children and Other Innocent People
wanted him to get sick for a long time. I went to Bissell and he said go ahead.”
     
    Gottlieb also helped create a CIA assassination kit containing needles, rubber gloves, gauze masks, and lethal biological materials. Bissel ordered Gottlieb to the Congo with his kit in September 1960, to give the kit to Lawrence Devlin to poison Lumumba. Gottlieb told Hersh, “I did ask Bissell, ‘Was this our idea?’ The answer was that it came from ‘the highest source--President Eisenhower.” 116
     
    Perhaps our government took this apparent use of the mind to a different level. It could explain the bizarre nature of the experiments they performed on me. Chris Bucholtz reports on the Air Force’s use of the brain in an article he wrote in 1995. 117 He says,
     
    “Scientists at the Aeronautical Systems Centre (ASC) at the US Air Force’s Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio are studying the use of brain-actuated control techniques as a means of controlling aircraft. xxxvi In the past the problem with thought-control techniques has been discerning the faint electromagnetic brain signals which accompany voluntary thought, from the flurry of “background noise” in the brain caused by everyday activity. In the ASC experiments, pilots in a simulator face two fluorescent lights, which pulse at 13.25 Hz. This causes nerve cells in the subject’s visual cortex to fire at the same frequency. Electrodes on their heads detect the resulting brain-wave patterns, feeding them to an amplifier and a filter. The filter picks out the 13.25.Hz waves and measures their power. A bar scale displays a measurement of these waves, which allows the subjects to learn how to vary the intensity of their brain responses.”
     
    The “Red Fire” sounds like the same thing that the British philosopher Herbert Spencer suggested more than 100 years ago. He believed that each child was born with an energy-producing machine of some kind inside it, and that this energy must be released in some fashion or the child would “explode.” 118 In a 1994 article from Aviation Week and Space Technology , William Scott reports on an interview with a retired colonel who confirmed that the Army conducted experiments in the 1960s aimed at controlling air defense missiles with brainwaves.
     
    Some of this becomes clearer when you look at a declassified CIA document dated January 1, l965. 119 This document is an account of what types of things were discovered on a trip to Russia. The document talks about hypnotized patients and acupuncture, and the variation of conductivity between the network points according to the patient’s condition in hypnosis. It also talks about fastening electrodes to humans around the head with an open helmet that contains screw contact electrodes that can be moved about and brought into light but constant pressure contact. Many survivors besides me have drawn themselves with this helmet like device on. They go on to talk about a training device, which uses a cylindrical capacitor. This device can be used to study one’s ability to concentrate and focus the mind, and by practice, one should be able to increase the minds ability to control the energy body. One hand holds the cylinder and the thumb and the forefinger of the other hand touches a silver-plated contact. The imagination of stress or excitement during the experiment can be used to alter the results.
     
    The documents also talks about Telekinesis (PK) and an individual named Nelya K who actually caused a frog’s heart to stop. She could influence the rhythm of other people and alter their skin condition, so as to produce burning feeling on contact. They also found that hypnosis could be used to enhance PK abilities and that autogenic training was used to help increase PK abilities. More than likely, Nelya K is Nina Kulagina mentioned earlier.
