[Interesting Mail story from when they were testing the MK effects of LSD in the 50's, MI6 did similar experiments (along with all other intelligence agencies working for the establishment) in the early days of understanding the drug's effective use in mind control, in typical unnecessarily brash CIA style. Why bother with this? It's not like they haven't got enough of their own soldiers and citizens which they happily test on with less likelihood of being caught. Probably the agency's "humor" at work, I'm sure the agents based in the village were entertained by the show.]
The CIA caused an entire French village to go mad nearly 60 years ago by spiking their baguettes with the mind-bending drug LSD, a new investigation claims.
Hundreds of residents in Pont-Saint-Esprit, southern France, were driven to mass hysteria and hallucinations in the 'cursed bread' incident in August 1951.
Five people died and dozens were sent to mental asylums in strait jackets in one of the most bizarre mysteries in France.
Pont-Saint-Esprit: Villagers here were driven to mass hysteria and hallucinations
One man tried to drown himself, screaming that his belly was being eaten by snakes. An 11-year-old boy tried to strangle his grandmother.
A man shouted 'I am a plane' before jumping out of a second-floor window and breaking his legs.
Another saw his heart escaping through his feet and begged a doctor to put it back.
Baffled villagers had always blamed the incident on a local baker whose bread could have been tainted with mercury or psychedelic mould.
But U.S. journalist H P Albarelli says he has now uncovered CIA documents revealing the agency caused the madness to test the effects of LSD in a secret mind-control experiment.
The incident, which took place at the height of the Cold War, was initially investigated by a Swiss pharmaceutical company Sandoz who have been revealed as the same people who secretly supplied the CIA with LSD.
One note uncovered by Albarelli is a transcript of a conversation between a CIA agent and a Sandoz official who mentions the 'secret of Pont-Saint-Esprit' and explains it was caused by diethylamide the D in LSD.
Mr Albarelli added: ‘The real smoking gun was a White House document sent to members of the Rockefeller Commission formed in 1975 to investigate CIA abuses.
‘It contained the names of a number of French nationals who had been secretly employed by the CIA and made direct reference to the Pont St. Esprit incident.’
Locals in Pont-Saint-Esprit still want to know what caused the mass insanity Villager Charles Granjoh, 71, was one those affected.
He said: ‘At the time people brought up the theory of an experiment aimed at controlling a popular revolt.
‘I almost kicked the bucket and I'd like to know why.’
I thought this was a pretty good illustration of the sociopathic mentality of some of these royal families who get off on torturing others (he ordered the video be made because he "liked to watch the torture sessions later", "At one point, Issa tells the cameraman to get a close-up. "Get closer. Get closer. Get closer. Let his suffering show,"", showing he, like many of his "elite" counterparts are sociopathic sexual sadists, I'm sure he has amassed many similar videos of him abusing slaves and other unfortunates), and the global establishment's willingness to allow them to continue torturing/abusing with impunity. The story is a bit old now but he was just yesterday acquitted of any wrong doing so I thought it was worth posting quickly. Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al Nahayan is the son of the late President of the UAE, the half brother of Manchester City owner Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, brother of current President of the UAE Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan and brother of the Crown Prince of Abu DhabiMohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan (pictured below with the sociopathic Arabic "elite" royal families' best buddies in America, the Bush family's GWB [the Bushes are known to be just as sadistic in their abuse of slaves]).

Apparently they somehow (obviously they control the UAE court so it's hardly surprising) successfully claimed he was drugged and was therefore unaware of his actions, when most people are drugged they don't immediately think, "This guy overcharged me for fertilizer! Let's make him eat sand, burn his balls, fire bullets at him, electroshock his anus with a cattle-prod, run over his legs with a car and rape him!". It doesn't make much sense but they can and have been getting away with everything, in particular buying and selling slaves (who do you think those cattle-prods are primarily used on, probably not cattle; well a different kind of cattle they would consider them as) for at least centuries. The Sheik's handlers may have drugged him for this particular incident but it is obviously not the first nor the last time he has done something like this as it appears to come completely natural to him.
The video is especially shocking because it also shows a man in police uniform helping to tie up the victim and hold him down in the middle of the desert. At the start of the torture session, which is believed to have happened some time before 2005, Issa stuffs sand in the victim's mouth and fires a machine gun into the sand around him as the man screams helplessly.
At one point, Issa tells the cameraman to get a close-up. "Get closer. Get closer. Get closer. Let his suffering show," the sheikh says.
Later the sheikh beats the man with a wooden plank with a nail protruding from it, and pours salt in the bloody wounds left by his blows. He also inserts an electric cattle prod in the man's anus and turns it on, and pours lighter fluid over the man's testicles, which he then sets alight. Finally, the man is held down in the sand and a Mercedes is driven over him. The sound of bones breaking can be clearly heard.
The victim, an Afghan grain merchant called Mohammed Shah Poor, apparently survived the experience, because the government later justified taking no action against the sheikh by saying the matter had been settled privately between the two men and each had agreed not to press charges against the other.
Another of Issa's brothers is the interior minister. Despite one police officer helping to carry out the torture, part of the UAE government's statement on the matter said: "All rules, policies and procedures were followed correctly by the police department."
The tape was smuggled out of the UAE by US citizen and Houston businessman Bassam Nabulsi, a former business partner of Issa. Nabulsi claimed he himself was tortured in the UAE after refusing to hand over the videotapes after falling out with the sheikh.
Nabulsi claims Issa ordered Nabulsi's brother to record the torture scene in order to watch it later at his own leisure. Nabulsi is now suing in America for the alleged mistreatment he received.
But the story does not end there. Nabulsi credits US embassy staff with keeping him alive while in prison, but he also says he brought the existence of the torture tape - and the collusion of the police - to the US's attention to little effect, including to a US official assigned to train UAE police.
Civil rights protesters in China are being dumped in psychiatric wards where they are forced to take mind-altering drugs and given electric shocks.
[Sky News article. I remember reading something about this a year ago but the media has been focusing on it again recently. The Chinese are simply following the model used by the Russians who did/are doing pretty much the exact same thing as this using their mental institutions, the West aren't innocent of this by any means too with mental asylums being used for furthering research and putting into practice programming with electroshocks, drugs, rape and other trauma-based mind control and brainwashing techniques. I've included another video apart from the Sky News one which shows how young children are even taken for, what the state would probably call "re-education".]
The treatment is handed out to petitioners - victims of corrupt local governments who have come to the cities to seek justice.
They travel thousands of miles to reach Beijing, but instead of being allowed to voice their grievances they are thrown into illegal "black jails" and many end up placed in mental institutions.
"Pain? You don't know pain until you have had 220 volts going through your body," said Hu Guohong, who had come to Beijing to seek compensation for three months' back pay.
He suffered two hours of electric shock for ten consecutive days.
"My whole insides… it felt like my intestines were turning like clothes put through a washing machine," he said.
"There are a lot of people who are locked up there. Just like me, protesters. They round you up and simply dump you in the hospital. If you don't do what they say, you get electrocuted."
Sky News gained access to one of the mental institutions and spoke to those behind the bars of an exercise courtyard.
"Some people in here are not even diagnosed with a mental illness. There are all kinds of cases, but most of us are not ill," one man told us.
Liu Feiyue is a lawyer representing hundreds of those detained.
His home in Wuhan in South Chinais under surveillance by police and we had to meet secretly late at night.
He says the practice of putting protesters in mental hospitals is widespread.
"They want to stop the protesters from voicing their dissenting views," he said.
"So they lock them up in mental hospitals. This is becoming a serious epidemic in China."
Sky News wrote to the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Health to ask why mental hospitals were being used as dumping grounds for those seeking justice.
We received no answer.
A spokesman at the Chinese Embassy in London said it was "not in a position to respond in this regard".
Quick post on Paramore per an emailer's request (sorry for generally crappy slow responsiveness to emails by the way, been a hectic week for me due to non-blog stuff) as the video linked to is especially blatant I feel. The band have started picking up their use of Monarch and Illuminist symbolism in recent photo shoots/videos, now with this Monarch slave suggestive video for 'Brick by Boring Brick' which strikes me as a very Masonic sounding title (though I feel it is referencing 'building'/programming a 'stable' internal system if you read the lyrics, which is a long, laborious, boring process; so the structures don't fall apart and the whole system collapse [the lyrics reference a wolf blowing down the house; 3 Little Pigs is an extremely Masonic tale anyway, see my 'Disney/33 little masonic pigs' post]). I was fully expecting something like this though having seen their album cover (below) for 'Brand New Eyes' a few months ago (seeing something with "brand new eyes" has pretty obvious interpretations in terms of mind control). The butterfly is a tiger butterfly combining the two most commonly used animals [butterflies and cats] used in dehumanized sexual alter programming, it is pinned with it's wings divided/separated/split apart from it's body.
Here are it's 100% mind control symbolic lyrics which are probably worth a deeper analysis but you can pick up on it, if you understand dissociation and mind control it makes a lot more sense:
She lives in a fairy tale Somewhere too far for us to find Forgotten the taste and smell Of the world that she's left behind It's all about the exposure the lens I told her The angels were all wrong now She's ripping wings off of butterflies
With her feet on the ground And her head in the clouds Well go get your shovel And we'll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Well go get your shovel And we'll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Ba da ba da ba
So one day he found her crying Coiled up on the dirty ground Her prince finally came to save her And the rest you can figure out But it was a trick And the clock struck twelve Well make sure, to build your house brick by boring brick Or the wolves gonna blow it down
With her feet on the ground And her head in the clouds Well go get your shovel And we'll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Well go get your shovel And we'll dig a deep hole We'll bury the castle, bury the castle
Well you built up a world of magic Because your real life is tragic Yeah you built up a world of magic If it's not real You can't hold it in your hands You can't feel it with your heart And I won't believe it But if it's true You can see it with your eyes Oh, even in the dark And that's where I want to be, yeah
Go get your shovel We'll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Go get your shovel And we'll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Ba da ba da ba...
The video (directed by Meiert Avis, the band came up with the idea though; perhaps they've been reading too much MK material) portrays Hayley William's child alter personality working her way through her fairy tale programmed internal world. Hayley herself is portrayed on a swing (swinging back and forward/up and down, hypnotic/dissociative symbolic) as her little girl alter (coincidentallycalled Harley, that 'making of' video explains almost nothing by the way) runs past her (and the 'grave digger' who presumably symbolizes the programmer taking her "deeper and deeper" into a trance/programming [you'll notice there is a white rabbit in it confirming this symbolism], played by Josh Farro who Hayley had been in a "relationship" with until 2007). This post is very rushed, but here is my interpretation anyway.
She is holding a doll and wearing Monarch butterfly wings and goesthrough a gateway (accessing another part of the mind, upon entry the previous area is symbolically locked by the invisible programmer, that part of the mind now inaccessible to the alter only opened by the "key"/lock/trigger/code symbolized by the key disappearing into light dust).
The area/compartment she is now locked in is like a wilderness wonderland with fireflies or fairies trapped in glass jars (the symbolism comes up here too; she releases one and drops her doll), flowers and Monarch butterflies (she picks one up).
She moves out of the wilderness, progressing deeper into her internal world to a place with giant mushrooms (Amanita muscaria looking) symbolizing dissociative hallucination (+ drugs like that are often used).
Note the red chess piece by the Knight (blurred, to the left).
Alice in Wonderland is further invoked with a mad tea party type scene shown above (with a wolf-like man and an older lady), a Queen of Hearts (not strictly, but this is clearly implied by the heart shaped box of chocolates she uses to lure Hayley), more red/white spotted mushrooms (+gnome), even a Knight. These characters are guardian alters placed into her system to stop her from accessing parts (they are trying to stop her getting to the castle) that the programmer knows might be dangerous to her system (or could help to break out of the programming)
It's hard to make out some of the stuff in the video due to the blurred visual effects but the character to the left of the dwarf/gnome looks like the caterpillar (emphasized by it's relaxed demeanor, like the hookah smoking caterpillar on the mushroom in Wonderland).
You can see that they are guardians as they try to lure her in by offering drinks and such but she runs off scared of them (knowing they are there to stop her, they are essentially booby traps placed into her internal world to keep her in line) to the apparent safety of the castle. Where her goal seems to be, the castle represents a similar area to that of the Emerald City in Oz programming; castles are known to be commonly used as an internal structure contained in Monarch internal systems/worlds. This one acts almost like the 'hub' of the MPD system with all the mirrors giving access [when allowed/triggered] to the many alters contained in the system, the little girl appears to be trying to access and perhaps reintegrate with her core personality, the grown up Hayley as she is shown reflected in the mirror before the more severe guards chase her off.
Inside the castle is another predictable mind control scene with multiple magic mirrors as little girl Hayley is multiplied and then looks in the mirror (the reflection combing her hair, looking content and happy; how the programmer wants her to look but she herself isn't at all).
Multiple Marionette puppets exit the mirrors (above), then the scary gnome (from the mushrooms earlier) is shown.
Day turns to night (with lightning flashes) and the images become scarier, with a screaming lady (the Queen of Hearts from earlier who looks to be wearing some sort of mask/heavy silver makeup) who moves like a mechanical robot and appears to disintegrate or something in the mirror as the little girl becomes increasingly more disturbed and anxious, eventually her image disintegrates/turns to chrome (not sure how best to describe that) in the mirror.
The kinds of scenes portrayed in this video should be very familiar to those who have read up on Monarch mind control.
She removes the Monarch butterfly wings as a robber (black/white duality + mask) then a man wielding an axe, who reminds me of the Tin Woodsman due to his axe (this axe wielding guy is another Guardian alter; essentially 'comply with the programming or you will have your head cut off', if the alter comes too close to a part which would allow her more access to her system than the programmer wants the Guardian would scare/chase them back as is shown in this video).
She runs in fear (the axe wielding man forcing her to give up on her goal to reach her primary alter in the castle), exiting the castle through an archway into the night through a dead forest scene and into the wilderness area which you'll remember was locked from the outside (preventing her from accessing that compartment, which is now open as the guardians probably want her to reach the safety of the rabbit hole/grave), the wilderness encroaches on her as it comes alive/grows and tries to trap her.
She is able to get away, taking her doll with her and exit through the now unlocked door back to where her primary/core personality of Hayley is waiting, where it is constantly under the light of the sun; but the little girl has brought the darkness into this 'safe' compartment.
She manages to fall back into the hole (symbolic grave/rabbit hole, shown obviously by the white rabbit), still trapped 'deep' in the programming having failed in her attempt, it's quite a dark video. Adult Hayley, looking very sad picks up her porcelain doll and throw it into the hole with her.
The horns hand sign of course means "rock and roll" and nothing else, and is entirely innocent; ignore the fact that she's framing her eye with them... which adds no deeper significance at all. I did not do a hugely indepth search for their images by the way so probably missed some symbolic ones.
The band were given their major break (it's when I first heard of them anyway) with the main track for the first of those shitty Mormon vampire romance movies based on the books by Stephenie Meyer (I get that a lot of people like it but I found it painful to sit through, I had to stop before the end because I was drifting off which I rarely do in films. Having said that there is a fair bit of symbolism in the films and obviously on the book covers).
I have no time to go through all their videos but I had noted their lyrics to "Ignorance" (first single off 'Brand New Eyes' butterfly cover album), essentially telling their fans the truth (note the word TRUTH on the bass drum too, truth/light/illumination/Luciferianism), that "Ignorance is your new best friend" as Hayley waves an entirely non-symbolic light bulb in front of their faces as she is trapped in the tiny box room, it's just a light bulb right? Stop being so paranoid! ;) Note later on the strobe/flashing lighting, then she enters a symbolic infinite mirror type thing (various size/shaped mirrors all around her) as she acts insane and dissociative, going "out of her mind" (with crazy hair [or horns/animal ears] and some kind of white jumpsuit with random black zippers ["unzipping" alters also 'splitting' symbolic which is similar]). The video ends very symbolically with the light covering her face as the rest of the band coil the light's cord around her leaving her in bondage to the light (also serpent symbolic). The clichéd explanation for the song/video doesn't wash with me ('it's about tension in the band and nearly breaking up', which sounds like a stock explanation bands often come up with; at least they tried instead of completely avoiding it like in the 'Brick by Boring Brick' making of video I linked to further up), and hopefully Taylor is just joking around (either that or he is in a dissociative, altered state).
One of their photo shoots with the Texaco logo used symbolically (Pentagram in a circle with Tau Cross, though on the surface obviously it's just represents the Lone Star and the T of Texas, it's a shame people never look beyond the surface), note her checker pattern top. Paramore with those duality twins from Oz The Veronicas (in usual black, black/white stripes [which Hayley is often seen in], leopard print).
Lisa's (from the Veronicas) Halloween photos are relatively disturbing (beyond your standard Halloween horror themes), appropriately as (M)Alice in Wonderland to end this short post.
