Allen Welsh Dulles, First Director of the CIA

Allen Dulles, brother of John Foster Dulles was also an early architect of the New World Order. A society of the few, elite, and "in the know" who the laws of this country do not apply to. Today we will take a look at his early intelligence career and I will later link him to the Bush Family and the role all of these people played in the assassination of JFK.

Before there was a CIA and we were dealing with Nazi Germany, we had a Coordinator Of Information (COI) office to gather intelligence for the U.S. This was the precursor to the Office of Strategic Services and later the CIA. In the 1930's Allen Dulles gained experience in Germany studying their plans and activities. he then was closely involved in creating the CIA in 1947 (which was formed under the National Security Act) and Henry Kissinger was his translator. He was responsible for Operation Paperclip which assimilated German Scientists into American Society without light being shed on who they really were. This operation was carried out through the mid fifties, bypassing laws and the wishes of Presidents Truman and Eisenhower who did not know their orders were being ignored.

In 1953, Allen Dulles was named the director of the CIA under the Eisenhower administration. Under Dulles's direction, the CIA created MK-Ultra, a top secret mind control research project which was managed by Sidney Gottlieb. Dulles also personally oversaw Operation Mockingbird, a program which influenced American media companies as part of the "New Look". Lets look at just how nice of a program MK-Ultra was:

Project MKULTRA (also known as MK-ULTRA) was the code name for a CIA mind-control research program that began in the 1950s. There is much published evidence that the project involved the use of many types of drugs to manipulate peoples' mental state and to alter brain function. It was first brought to wide public attention by Congress (in the form of the Church Committee) and a presidential commission (known as the Rockefeller Commission) and also to the Senate. On the Senate floor in 1977, Senator Ted Kennedy said:

"The Deputy Director of the CIA revealed that over thirty universities and institutions were involved in an 'extensive testing and experimentation' program which included covert drug tests on unwitting citizens 'at all social levels, high and low, native Americans and foreign.' Several of these tests involved the administration of LSD to 'unwitting subjects in social situations.' At least one death, that of Dr. Olson, resulted from these activities. The Agency itself acknowledged that these tests made little scientific sense. The agents doing the monitoring were not qualified scientific observers."

Headed by Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, MKULTRA was started on the order of CIA director Allen Dulles on April 13, 1953, largely in response to alleged Soviet, Chinese, and North Korean use of mind control techniques on U.S. prisoners of war in Korea. The CIA wanted to use similar methods on their own captives. The CIA was also interested in being able to manipulate foreign leaders with such techniques, and would later invent several schemes to drug Fidel Castro.

These studies weren't conducted merely to satisfy the CIA's scientific curiosity -- the Agency was looking for weapons that would give the United States the upper hand in the mind wars. Toward that objective, the Agency poured millions of dollars into studies probing literally dozens of methods of influencing and controlling the mind.

One 1955 MKULTRA document gives an indication of the size and range of the effort; this document refers to the study of an assortment of mind-altering substances which would:
"promote illogical thinking and impulsiveness to the point where the recipient would be discredited in public"
"increase the efficiency of mentation and perception"
"prevent or counteract the intoxicating effect of alcohol"
"promote the intoxicating effect of alcohol"
"produce the signs and symptoms of recognized diseases in a reversible way so that they may be used for malingering, etc."
"render the indication of hypnosis easier or otherwise enhance its usefulness"
"enhance the ability of individuals to withstand privation, torture and coercion during interrogation and so-called 'brainwashing'"
"produce amnesia for events preceding and during their use"
"produce shock and confusion over extended periods of time and capable of surreptitious use"
"produce physical disablement such as paralysis of the legs, acute anemia, etc."
"produce 'pure' euphoria with no subsequent let-down"
"alter personality structure in such a way that the tendency of the recipient to become dependent upon another person is enhanced"
"cause mental confusion of such a type that the individual under its influence will find it difficult to maintain a fabrication under questioning"
"lower the ambition and general working efficiency of men when administered in undetectable amounts"
"promote weakness or distortion of the eyesight or hearing faculties, preferably without permanent effects"

CIA documents suggest that radiation was investigated for the purpose of mind control as part of MKULTRA. Other early efforts focused on LSD, which later came to dominate many of MKULTRA's programs. Experiments included administering LSD to CIA employees, military personnel, doctors, other government agents, prostitutes, mentally ill patients, and members of the general public in order to study their reactions. LSD and other drugs were usually administered without the subject's knowledge and informed consent, a violation of the Nuremberg Code that the U.S. agreed to follow after WWII.

Efforts to "recruit" subjects were often illegal, even discounting the fact that drugs were being administered (though actual use of LSD, for example, was legal in the United States until 1967). In Operation Midnight Climax, the CIA set up several brothels to obtain a selection of men who would be too embarrassed to talk about the events. The men were dosed with LSD, and the brothels were equipped with one-way mirrors and the "sessions" were filmed for later viewing and study

Another technique investigated was connecting a barbituate IV into one arm and an amphetamine IV into the other. The barbiturates were released into the subject first, and as soon as the subject began to fall asleep, the amphetamines were released. The subject would begin babbling incoherently at this point, and it was sometimes possible to ask questions and get useful answers. This treatment was discarded as it often resulted in the death of the patient from physical side effects of the drug combination, thus making further interrogation impossible. Other experiments involved heroin, mescaline, psilocybin, scopolamine, marijuana, alcohol and sodium pentothal.

In the summer of 1975, congressional hearings and the Rockefeller Commission report revealed to the public for the first time that the CIA and the Department of Defense had conducted experiments on both cognoscente and unwitting human subjects as part of an extensive program to influence and control human behavior through the use of psychoactive drugs such as LSD and mescaline and other chemical, biological, and psychological means. They also revealed that at least one subject had died after administration of LSD.

Frank Olson, a United States Army biochemist and biological weapons researcher, was given LSD without his knowledge or consent in 1953 as part of a CIA experiment, and mysteriously committed suicide a week later following a severe psychotic episode. A CIA doctor assigned to monitor Olson's recovery claimed to be asleep in another bed in a New York City hotel room when Olson jumped through the window to fall ten stories to his death.Olson's son disputes this version of events, and maintains that his father was murdered due to his knowledge of the often-lethal interrogation techniques employed by the CIA in Europe, used on Cold War prisoners. Frank Olson's body was exhumed in 1994, and cranial injuries indicated Olson had been knocked unconscious before exiting the window. The CIA's own internal investigation, by contrast, claimed Gottlieb had conducted the experiment with Olson's prior knowledge, although neither Olson nor the other men taking part in the experiment were informed the exact nature of the drug until some 20 minutes after its ingestion. The report further suggested that Gottlieb was nonetheless due a reprimand, as he had failed to take into account suicidal tendencies Olson had been diagnosed as suffering from which might well have been exacerbated by the LSD.


There are also conspiracy theories which claim that the MKULTRA project was also linked with the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy. Some have argued that there is evidence that the assassin, Sirhan B. Sirhan, had been subjected to mind control, though such ideas are generally dismissed due to a lack of supporting evidence. Recently, these views have become more widespread after the evidence cited by Sirhan's most recent lawyer Lawrence Teeter, in the June 11th, 2003 Interview with Sirhan's attorney Lawrence Teeter on KPFA 94.1 / Guns & Butter show.

Similarily, MKULTRA was also linked to the assassination of the Israeli prime minister Itzchak Rabin in 1995, where the person who committed the murder, Yigal Amir, had been employed in the security service, and his admission was gained only after 5-days of investigation, while the medical reports revealed that the bullet was shot from the front, in contrast to the official version.

After Leo Ryan was murdered at Jonestown, his children filed a lawsuit claiming that the CIA had been operating Jonestown as part of their MKULTRA program, and that Richard Dwyer, the Deputy Chief of Mission from the US Embassy who had organized the trip on Ryan's behalf, was a CIA agent. The lawsuit was dismissed for reasons that have never been made public, and the majority of U.S. government records concerning Jonestown remain sealed to this day.
