Dr. Louis Jolyon West

[Jan Klimkowski]

In the MK-ULTRA Iceberg thread, I accused Jolly West of the Biblical sin of onanism.

My justification is that the Jolly One was claiming to provide medical and ethical oversight to the "psychic spies" who were remote viewing the Symbionese Liberation Army.

Of course the SLA was a creation of the Phoenix Program, which was in part a field testing offshoot of MK-ULTRA, and thus part of the MK-ULTRA iceberg.

Jolly West's psychic spies were remote viewing his own creation...

Thank you for this summary Jan.
Your comments about Operation Phoenix reminded me of this quote from Mae Brussell (when asked about the Patty Hearst episode):

"What we are now experiencing is the importation of the dreaded "Operation Phoenix" program into the United States. William E. Colby, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, will be conducting paramilitary operations in order to escalate the necessity for martial law.

Through various created and manipulated acts of violence, the only "solution" to "chaos, anarchy, and senseless violent acts" will be a police state. Colby's C.I.A. specialty, the "Phoenix Operation" in Southeast Asia, was known for its torture, political assassinations, mass murders (20,000 to 40,000 civilians), tiger cages, rigged elections, and slanted intelligence.

.............(snipped)

The Phoenix program was an indiscriminate murder program in Asia, utilizing terror and the killing of innocent people. The Hearst kidnapping is part of the Phoenix program inside the United States."

Myra - I absolutely agree with Mae Brussell.

I believe MK-ULTRA to be one of many parallel programmes which developed and field tested "mind control" techniques. These parallel programmes existed within different parts of the American, British and European military-multinational-intelligence complex, and sometimes spoke to each other and sometimes didn't.

In this context, it should be noted that the later remote viewing* research had separate Army Intelligence, CIA, NSA, ONI and DIA programmes. So, to assume something as important as "mind control" would be limited to the CIA's MK-ULTRA programme is, imo, naive.

I regard the Phoenix Program as a perfect opportunity for the black doctors & shrinks to use experimental techniques in operational conditions with zero accountability, and one that they embraced with salivating relish and a complete absence of moral conscience.

In his excellent "The Assassinations of the 1960s as Deep Events", Prof Peter Dale Scott writes:

I have a personal reason for my interest in CIA links to Manchurian candidates and assassinations. Some of you may recall the Symbionese Liberation Army (S.L.A.) in the 1970s, the group led by "Cinque" or Donald DeFreeze. The S.L.A. first made headlines by murdering the superintendent of the Oakland School District, Marcus Foster; it subsequently kidnapped Patty Hearst and is said to have brainwashed her. As a convict, Cinque had participated in a behavior modification program in the California Medical Facility at Vacaville state prison; and that program�s director, Colton Westbrook, subsequently applied to teach in my Department of English at UC Berkeley. The chairman asked me to peruse Westbrook�s curriculum vitae; and I immediately noticed that while in Vietnam Westbrook had worked as a civilian employee of Pacific Architects & Engineers (PA&E). PA&E was a well-known cover for the CIA in Saigon, and I so notified the Chairman. Westbrook did not get the job.

Yes, that's right. Donald DeFreeze was part of a behaviour modification programme run in Vacaville prison by Phoenix Program veteran Colston Westbrook. DeFreeze was then allowed to escape, and formed the Symbionese Liberation Army. When he captured Patty Hearst, he did not randomly abuse her:

For about forty days, Patty Hearst was kept in solitary confinement in the closet with no contact with the outside world. Besides profound sensory deprivation, she was subjected to food and sleep deprivation, sexual molestation, frequent interrogations and mock FBI raids staged by the SLA. During these she thought she might be killed at any time. Once out of the closet she was subjected to further interrogation and threats. Her autobiography makes it clear that the SLA used the classical techniques of thought reform, coercive persuasion, mind control, or brainwashing.

(p195, Dr Colin Ross, The CIA Doctors)

At Patty Hearst's trial, the expert witnesses were a veritable spook's gallery: Jolly West, Dr Martin Orne (MK-ULTRA master hypnotist), Dr Margaret Singer ("brainwashing" expert and like Orne & West, a member of the MK-ULTRA cover-up project known as the False Memory Syndrome Foundation), and Dr Robert Jay Lifton.

Dr West testified that Patty Hearst had a new identity deliberately created by Donald DeFreeze. All four expert witnesses testified that Patty Hearst had been brainwashed using classical mind control techniques.

(p199, Dr Colin Ross, The CIA Doctors)

In other words, DeFreeze & the SLA had transformed heiress Patty Hearst into a Manchurian Candidate bank robber.

Where did a street hood and unsuccessful armed robber like Donald DeFreeze learn such sophisticated programming techniques? There's only answer that makes sense to me, and its symbol is the bird that rose from the dead. As I have written in the context of Charles Manson, my conclusion is that DeFreeze was a controlled controller - created, in part, by Phoenix Program veteran Colston Westbrook.

*As a bizarre footnote, in 1974, the deep black remote viewing programme at Stanford Research Institute was tasked by their NSA masters with remote viewing... the SLA... :eek::eek::eek:

Medical & ethical oversight for this remote viewing programme was provided by.... Dr Louis Jolyon West.... :eek::eek::eek:

For taking such pride in observing his creations, Jolly surely stands convicted of the Biblical sin of onanism.

This is way way into the Twilight Zone...
