MIND CONTROL - Part 3 (continued)

MIND CONTROL 3 (continued)
by: f. g. lopriato y lopez


Career soldiers fraternize and co-habituate with the locals wherever they are called to serve.
They cultivate friendships that teach them the language, culture and customs of the people. Most importantly, seemingly inconsequential regional differences;
It was via these friends that Gl's in Korea first learned about" Charly's Electronic Brain Washing. " Bravado boosting jokes about Chinese Laundries changed to jokes about Charly's New and Improved Dry Cleaning business .
Things got more serious as more stories of returning POW's were passed around. What was getting into these guy's heads? They were said to act more like Charly than Charly did when they came back.
Repatriated POW's were isolated and whisked away back home to be de­briefed and for the brass to find out more about what was happening behind enemy lines.
Rumors about these Ex- POW'S filtered out via the GI Grape Vine, Some of these rumors were that returning POW's were emaciated, and allowed to eat whatever they pleased, as much as they pleased, at whatever hour they wanted to eat on board the troopships taking them home.
One intriguing rumor that was later written up in a widely read magazine was about a POW returning home by plane suddenly changed personalities in mid flight. It seems that the GI had grown up in a very abusive family and had unconsciously created a second personality that protected him when things got too unbearable.
He had been laken prisoner early in the Korean conflict and had spend several years there. Apparently, the care­taker personality had emerged when he was first taken, and it was not until some three years later that, on board that plane that the caretaker personality returned to the subconscious and the normal personality took over once morel, COMPLETELY UNAWARE OF . WHAT HAD OCCURRED DURING THOSE THREE YEARS.!
When replacements who had undergone anti brain washing training, or at least said that they had been trained to avoid Mind Control, finally began showing up , they were taken with a large dose of salt. Most of what they claimed to know were just revised methods of avoiding falling for visual and auditory enemy propaganda.
According to bits and pieces of credible rumors this so called Electronic Brain Washing could peneotrate through steel helmets, plastic liners, hair and scull and find your brain, however small it was, changing your personality by replacing your emotions and substituting your character with their version of how you should think. It worked whether you listened, or not whether you listened to radio, they looked or not.
Reason told the Gi's one thing and imagination told them something else. When those two are pitted against each other, imagination will win every time. , and the imagination of soldiers in combat zones quietly grew from mosquito-size to the enormity comparable to the fear now felt for the coming year 2012. the end of the Mayan Calendar, and as invisible but effective, as a Mind Control weapon. Fear, distrust and divisiveness now appeared .. (to be continued.)

Most writers on the subject of Mind Control begin with stories about returning prisoners of war in the Korean conflict. It's true, as far as Public Attention is concerned but, as I have said before, as long as people have been around, certain.people have controlled tribes; clans, and religions. Hitler made it a science by federalizing all that was known about human behavior and the cream of German scholars and scientists of the mind and used it to propagandize more than just Germany alone, even here, in the United States, supremacist groups bought Hitler's baloney, but, at least in Germany, and the countries that he conquered, Hitler controlled all the mediums of communication. What can justify Nazi voluntary collaboration by non German, non political, and otherwise disinterested citizens in the Free World ?
In Russia, things have always been different, their way of life demanded· more a closer identity with the mental, the supernatural, psychic, etc .. As Communism spread, so did knowledge of how the mind works, After the war, scientists were taken by the victors, the United States , being a more material country placed more emphasis on obtaining scientists who specialized cialized in rockets, bombs, and nuclear physics, not the behavior scientists, although many of the propaganda tactics taken from the Germans became part of tactics used in selling and political advertising the US generally poo pooed anything that smacked the least bit like parapsychology, or spiritualism.
The first time I ran into the title words "Brain Washing," was in a book by Kenneth Goff. who was a dues paying member of the Communist Party from May 2, 1936 to October 10,1936. In 1939, Mr. Goff voluntariiy appeared before the House Hearings on unAmerican Activities Committee, in Washington, DC. His testimony is Vol. 9 of the Congressional Record for that year. Here you will find Mr. Goff's first name, Kenneth, and the alias he used, John Keats, as well as a reference to "'Brain Washing," So it's no wonder that the Pentagon started useing the word when it became obvious that we were in for psychological warfare in Korea, when the fighting started.
What else could it be but Psychological warefare when, after a battle we went back to retrieve our dead, expecting to find their bodies abused and/or mutilated and found them cleaned up and lying as in state, with their hands crossed over their chests and notes appologizing for having to kill us for the sake of.. This could have been anyone of the reasons that that they were given as to why we had to be stopped.!
Later, Allied Prisoners of War, when repatriated, demonstrated such behavior that I am surprise more were not tried for treason. As it was only those who chose to stay in North Korea and adopted the enemy's way of life were considered traitor's.
The effects on South Korean and Allied relationships South of the 38th, were devastating., to say the least without opening up old wounds and salting them all over again. There are still people living who experienced both sides of the divisiveness between South Korean and Allied troops, not to mention the cruelt against Korean civilians, their culture, and their history.
Little did they care that their behavior kept the grist-mills of propaganda well fed and verified what was propaganda wanted South Koreans to believe. During hostilities, there is no telling when a soldier is going to need civilians to hide him out, and to help him return to his own line. It helps to cultivate friendships before those needs arise. A professional fraternizes. (to be continued)
