Russian Mind-Control Research

It seems that more and more information is coming out in mainstream news about the Russian research into 'psychotronic weapons' and modern day uses of mind-manipulation. It makes one wonder whether authorities are becoming more blase and complacent about such strategies, especially in the context of terrorist propaganda. In this recent article from Wired - 'The Weird Russian Mind-Control Research Behind a DHS Contract' - the writer discusses how the work of infamous Russian researcher Igor Smirnov, who worked on the science of mind control, is now being integrated into US Home Security:

The slow migration of Smirnov's technology to the United States began in 1991, at a KGB-sponsored conference in Moscow intended to market once-secret Soviet technology to the world. Smirnov's claims of mind control piqued the interest of Chris and Janet Morris -- former science-fiction writers turned Pentagon consultants who are now widely credited as founders of the Pentagon's "non-lethal" weapons concept...in 1993 Smirnov rose to brief fame in the United States when the FBI consulted with him in hope of ending the standoff in Waco with cult leader David Koresh. Smirnov proposed blasting scrambled sound -- the pig squeals again -- over loudspeakers to persuade Koresh to surrender...

...But the U.S. war on terror and the millions of dollars set aside for homeland security research is offering Smirnov a chance at posthumous respectability in the West.

Smirnov's technology reappeared on the U.S. government's radar screen through Northam Psychotechnologies, a Canadian company that serves as North American distributor for the Psychotechnology Research Institute. About three years ago, Northam Psychotechnologies began seeking out U.S. partners to help it crack the DHS market. For companies claiming innovative technologies, the past few years have provided bountiful opportunities. In fiscal year 2007, DHS allocated $973 million for science and technology and recently announced Project Hostile Intent, which is designed to develop technologies to detect people with malicious intentions.


A must-read.

Yeah I agree. In all honesty I think this speak volumes about the change in western culture over the last decade or so. People are becoming more and more willing to allow themselves to be suppressed by this technology even in overt ways.

Perhaps that is all a part of the mind-washing. Once it is out in the open, people begin perpetuating it of their own accord...

Hi Marcus - thanks for this. Yes, it seems now as if public complacency - or conditioning - is allowing such strategies to become more exposed. There is far too much sleepwalking going on - whatever happened to Gurdjieff's 'War Against Sleep'??
