A Short History of Psychological Terror

Alfred McCoy, Professor of History at the University of Wisconsin, explores the history and use by the CIA of psychological torture in terms of how this particular form of torture was discovered, perfected and made legal. Series: "Voices" [3/2007] [Public Affairs] [Humanities] [Show ID: 12279]

[@JamesMcboatsmac]

"During the early years of the Cold War, the CIA used secret behavioral research relaying on a new form of psychological torture rather than pain. The CIA's psychological paradigm fused two new techniques, sensory disorientation and self-inflected pain, whose combination would cause victims to feel responsible for their own suffering and, in theory, capitulate more readily to their torturers. Refined through years of practice, the agency's psychological paradigm came to rely on a mix of sensory overload and sensory deprivation for a systematic attack on all human stimuli via seemingly banal, even benign procedures..."

Psychology did become more evil than not from late 50s on and today they have fulfilled the prophecy of the future by Edith Stein that the potential for abuse of Psychology was enormous. What is so remarkable about this is that she was not even referring to her own situation being persecuted by Nazis in the 1930s. She was pointing to the future when all this manipulation of Psychology to be used for torture methods would be realized as it has today.

Unfortunately Amnesty International and Human RIghts Watch does not care for human rights.

But of course you do. And when you say "human rights" you actually mean my rights, not yours.

Wow, drugs are over 8% of global commerce, beating textile industry, which produces one of 3 essential needs. How sad.

[@DrSpooglemon]

To be fair a person will get through more drugs in a given period of time than textiles.

[@janthys7009]

During an empathetic interrogation the prisoner willingly tells the truth. But, sadly like most of the peoples, the most of the interrogators do not like the truth, neither does the government. So, torture is a good option to get whatever you want.

It is so brave for an academician to focus on the crimes of America. I hope terrorists don't blow up his city.

[@whatabouttheearth]

11 years later I hope you are less naive. Do you know what really brought MK Ultra to light? Dr. Ewen Cameron, head of the American Psychological Association amd World Psychological Association, stripped all conditioning and memory from one of his patients which caused to to regress to an almost infantile state, since she left the hospital she had to relearn everything, including to get to know her husband and kids again. What made it an issue is that she was the wife of a member of Canadian parliament. Most the people this was used on are regular people, even most the people they rounded up and sent to Gitmo were regular people and not terrorists. I hope you have waken up alot more since 11 years ago, because it's way worse now. To support Zersetzung techniques on innocent people is the most unamerican of all things and is inherently contrary to "Liberty and Justice for all".

You would think being totally ineffective at gaining valuable information would be the biggest motivator for ending it. Such punishments, like he said, will create powerful resistance or deception from the broken willed. Oddly the stress positions also have a place in training scenarios, where a powerful will to resist failure is actually useful. Humans are messed up...

achieving goals at any costs is in the human nature... no matter how may laws against torture will pass, deep underground... far away from our eyes... the torture will continue to proliferate... until a revolution in our very mind will blow up the idea anything is allowed in order to reach our goals, nothing will change! sadly...

32.39mins What happened to Silicon Valley award winner ERIN VALENTI in Oct. 2019. She rang her family in distress saying that she was, "...in a THOUGHT EXPERIMENT..." Perhaps she meant Synthetic Telepathy. Her suffering would have involved sound,death threats, deviant level abuse and 24/7 sleep deprivation. Sound groups of 'ghouls' rattling 'blades' in the heavy thick voice of a drugged person threatening her as they seem to circle her car in which she was hiding ,or the clicking sound of a gun at the back of her head no matter where she moved. That is only the tip of the iceberg of the abuse meted out to 'ghost' prisoners of AGI Neural Weapons Technology.

Someone get that man some water. I don't know why public speakers don't have a glass ready, and take a quick sip as needed. Rather have a 5-10 second break for you to wet your mouth, rather than hear you try to clear your throat for 20 minutes, or listen to your dry mouth smack.

[@kristinmeyer489]

39:74: This definition is not based on the neuroscience (which thankfully at minimum equates and acknowledges physical torture with psychological torture, the impacts of each having their own lasting ripple effects). A small conceptual "box" from within to control, and manipulate mass reality, thru the intersection of INDIVIDUAL reality (VERSUS) THE CURATED COLLECTED, FOR THE PURPOSE OF NORMALIZATION-- is modern mind-war, for mass subjugation. With human nature being what it is, there can be no other end goal, imo.

They get better at it all the time, every minute!!! But God has said through Isaiah the Prophet, there is no peace for people who practice evil. He may allow a full scale nuclear war to teach the handful of survivors around the earth, never to do it again!!! They will have to take to the Plow. May not even be any work animals for them. They will have to do it themselves. And maybe God will not allow them to ever again aquire the knowledge to do such a thing again. But they will live in peace and be loved by God who is love. Edith Stein wrote not to accept anything as love if it lacks truth and not to accept anything as truth if it lacks love.

who to blame or what to blame for it? Is it a wrong interpretation of the bible or roman's politics who were writing their gospel for others to read by their best interest of a gain? Taking for consideration that AWE as yir'ah is not a such threat of the terror rather than state of mind to be aware of its own knowledge or state of mind when it is awakening to higher consciousness just like AWE MAR (Y/F) /eve/lil which is like to be afraid of eve-ning and love to mour-ning to complain about anything a part of some others who became only victims of a military terror not just throughout 'cybertorure' unauthorized programme being neuro weaponized. A problem is when someone is bringing the darkness in the form the past of old testament where soldiers in command used to love compared themselves with gods and messiahs just like flavius vespesian who became crusades of its own legion that is a problem when weapon becomes a law to be afraid of which spreads terror throughout other countries not loving resurrected intellect by educating self, ... what is a point of swearing loyality or honesty on the bible while ignoring science of evolved technology of polygraph with eyedetect+ with up to 99% truth accuracy when it comes to international war crimes or supreme courts when civilian's hearing doesn't count unless a person has enough money to afford someone who can over smart others ears? is this meant to be welcome to a new age of intellectual consciousness since 2012??? age of intellect or soldier gods figure like

@@rrasin1 I don't find it boring, I find it repulsive the fact that until Universities know about Tuskegee project, Cointel pro, Zer Set Zung,MKULTRA, and do NOTHING to educate people of the end results of the hidden programs that emulate ALL mass shootings. These hidden clubs,(like FBI's Infagard), circumvent legal processes and documentation to have proper checks and balances.

[@richvanek1363]

According to former CIA psychologist James Keehner, "It was planned destructiveness. First, you'd check to see if you could destroy a man's marriage. If you could, then that would be enough to put a lot of stress on that individual, to break him down. Then you might start a rumor campaign against him. Harass him constantly." THE FACT THAT IM ON WATCH LIST. AND HAVE HAD MANY OF THE THINGS LISTED IN THESE PROGRAMS DONE TO ME, AND KNOWING THAT COLLEGES HAVE KNOW SINCE 1952, AND ITS GOTTEN WORSE. WTF!!! educators get an "F", Protecting Kids "F", Balancing budget "F" All the college level idiots from MIT, Harvard,Yale, can't balance a budget, or protect the borders.
