Should we start a pool on how long it will last?

...............

I just made this to hand out at Occupy. I substituted all the instant eye-roll phrases with more generic terms. Did I go too far? Feedback would be appreciated.

I like it. A lot. Simple and straightforward with just-enough targeted information as an introduction for your audience.

The small picture of the FOIA document is a subtle reminder that this information is rooted in the all-too-real world, and your chosen piece of artwork (which I wish could be somewhat larger, because I am certain that some of the images in it will be tragically reminiscent to some people) will touch some individuals in ways that they themselves may not fully understand or (consciously) remember all the reasons for exactly why.

Just my take. But your efforts are to be admired, and should also be utilized.

EDITED TO ADD: Do you think it would be a good idea to place in large letters, either above or below the graphics, just a few words you would like those who might only glance at the brochure to take home with them?

Thanks Sim! I will let that idea sink in.

I made a number of occupiers uncomfortable today. There's always that snap back into reality. My friend and I joked I'd had my Halloween, only with words and not costume. :fawked:

You did a great job with the wording in the pamphlet, PW. I printed some out too, for future use. Hopefully, there are activists elsewhere who might be convinced to pass them out in their neck of the woods, as well. I've never really had anything succinct like this to hand to skeptics or to The Generally Unconscious Public...and it's damned difficult to find a way into a coherent conversation about such a complex subject--I know because I've tried. Good job.

This is an effective pamphlet. If I knew nothing about this issue, I would find that pamphlet credible and it would make me want to know more.

It is good. It's a good summary in pamphlet form. We've needed something like this.

"In Healing the Unimaginable, Dr Alison Miller provides you with the information, tools, and reassurance that you need in order to treat this challenging population with confidence and skill. She demystifies the methods used by perpetrator groups to create programming and to ensure the victims’ belief in their abusers’ omnipotence. She breaks down this complicated topic into its manageable parts, and, most importantly, provides what therapists always really want in their training manuals: a step by step 'how-to' guide. Dr Miller has been doing this work for many years, and it shows. This is the book we all have been waiting for. It shines a much needed, long overdue, and perfectly designed light on a form of abuse that has been protected by darkness for too long."
- E. Sue Blume, LCSW, author of Secret Survivors: Uncovering Incest and its Aftereffects in Women


From the Foreword
"If you do not have a patient who has gone through these experiences, this is initially a deeply frightening book, as well as a crucial book. It is not a book that soft-soaps the reader along the grades of obscene hierarchy between 'mild' trauma and major. It goes straight to the jugular of the worst realities that exist, and is not trying to apologize for, or justify, their existence. Enough research has been carried out; enough survivors have come forward with their unique constellations of physical and mental pain. Alison Miller is writing for those who know what exists and want and need help in understanding it further."
- Valerie Sinason, Director , Clinic for Dissociative Studies


"A perfect balance between depth, readability, and extensive hands-on experience, Healing the Unimaginable gently leads the reader through the darkest and largely unexplored areas of man-made trauma: Ritual Abuse and Mind Control. While many therapists think it unlikely that they will ever come across a survivor of such trauma, these cases are, in fact, less rare than one would like to believe; and recognizing the language of such survivors is thus our duty of care. This is an excellent handbook, to be read, re-read, and consulted many times over."
- Adah Sachs, co-author of Forensic Aspects of Dissociative Identity Disorder and Consultant Psychotherapist , Clinic for Dissociative Studies

Another survivor brought this book to my attention last week. :wave:

http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Dont-Tell-Encyclopedia-Hypnotism/dp/0965993035/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326182433&sr=8-1
Secret, Don't Tell: The Encyclopedia of Hypnotism [Paperback]
Carla Emery (Author)

... this book is for general readers who want to be well informed. Knowing real facts abut hypnosis will help you make wiser choices. It is also for those courageous individuals who are trained in hypnosis and who believe truth and justice are more important than professional solidarity, lobbying postures, income protection - even personal safety. And it is for legal specialists who may some day use this information in court to fight for justice.

Especially, this book is for all survivors of abusive hypnosis: past, present, and future. May every sleeper who yearns to wake and struggle toward freedom of mind find the courage to seek help in that waking and the blessing of achieving it.



I haven't read it yet, but you can read excerpts here on this Google site that features a great collection of ra/mc resources, including the entirety of Bowart's essential but unaffordable out of print Operation Mind Control in pdf form. :yay

Chapter Title
1 Svengali: Unethical Stage Hypnosis in Literature and Life
8 Mind-Control Research: Goals and Methods
9 Physical Methods of Psychiatry
10 The History of Deliberate Personality Splitting
33 Brainwashing: The Technology

Chapter 1
Svengali: Unethical Stage Hypnosis in Literature and Life
The hypnotist can be erotically fascinated by the sight of his inanimate, plastic, unresisting subject. In this, hypnotists share a dream world with undertakers.

Richard Condon's impassioned forward to Operation Mind Control by Walter Bowart

From here: http://sites.google.com/site/mcrais/vomc
If Firefox balks, use Safari.

Foreword
The father of Grock the clown, having had his legs broken
in eight places by his father for professional reasons, broke
Grock’s legs in eight places to be certain that the child would
grow up walking grotesquely so as to ensure his eminence as a
clown. The act brought much pain and indignity forever but,
Grock’s father reasoned, was there not a wholly justifiable
element involved? Was not the clowning tradition immortally
enhanced by those unnatural legs?

As demonstrated inescapably by Walter Bowart in this
book, our Father who art in the American secret police has
endowed hundreds of scientists at American universities to
unravel methods for fracturing American minds. That this
research in so many great halls of learning has exceeded a cost
of untold secret millions of dollars (the only yardstick remaining
by which we are willing to measure anything) indicates
that this Grockian entertainment being produced by our secret
police is a matter of ambitious policy rather than the happenstance
of cloak-and-dagger adventure.

In this book Walter Bowart has proven each step of this
official, terminal, government anarchy, even though that appears
to be a contradiction in terms. To alter and control human
minds is the ultimate anarchy. What is offered by official
apologists as a tribute to the needs of derring-do by romantic
spies are acts of hatred and sadism against all people in an
insane and degraded determination to extirpate conscience
from society.

Walter Bowart underwent a long and expensive process to
assemble the hard facts which comprise this book. Each document
attesting to secret police intent had to be ferreted out of
government archives by badgering persistence until, page by
page, the information was released to him by his right under
the Freedom of Information Act. The essence of that law
seems to be that one need only write away to a federal agency
for information about the general areas in which the citizen is
interested. Not so. Walter Bowart needed to expend large
sums of money to employ researchers in Washington and
elsewhere in order to discover the precise name, number, and
description of contents of each document toward which he was
groping through black streams of informational darkness.
Without this it would have been impossible to apply for the
transfer of copies of these documents to himself for this book.
He had to comb the United States for people from many walks
of life who knew, vaguely remembered, or suspected that they
had been under the mind control of secret police and military
agencies, then had to backtrack again with information
gleaned from them to labyrinthine research among thousands
of federal archives.

Please keep fearfully in mind that the astonishing information
published in this seminal work of investigative reporting,
concerning avenues taken to decision and execution by
our secret police to fracture or dissolve human minds, then to
operate those minds as a small boy might operate a Yo-Yo, for
purposes of counter-intelligence military “efficiency,” and the
destruction of democratic institutions, was drawn directly
from federal records and from official laboratory archives of
the highest educational purpose—as well as from the reviving
memories of those who had already undergone the dehumanizing
process.

The prostitution of the mind by our secret police preceded
the murder of the mind. To attain the advanced techniques
now available to “magnetic and attractive” political personalities,
it was necessary to turn out the laboratories of science as
a pimp turns out his heartless whores upon the winter streets;
our hallowed educators, army and navy and air force commanders
and personnel, the beloved medical profession, august
and inspiring temples of the law, our esteemed statesmen,
and all Americans living and dead. Each one of those groups
is involved in this dismembering of the mind. Taxes and the
collective conscience make the urination of the secret police
upon the human mind possible. “Brainwashing” per se is no
news to any of us. Controlled assassins are not known to us
only through fiction. Advertising assaults on behalf of poisonous
materials to induce us successfully to buy and consume
are early on bastions of mind control.


No one—not anyone—needs theologians to answer the
question: “Where does the soul live?” We know the soul lives
in the mind because the soul is the mind in all of its unfathomably
intricate individual conditioning. It is the mind of intent,
of hope, of purpose, of achievement by the spirit beyond
achievement by physical action. When Grock’s father broke
his son’s legs in eight places there may have been alarm, on
the one hand, that a man could do such a calamitous thing to
his son but, on the other, the same people responded to
Grock’s genius to which those hopelessly deformed legs had
contributed, and roared with laughter. That was the normal
reaction when we were the audience and crazy-legs Grock was
the clown. But Walter Bowart demonstrates to us in this book
that we have become Grock. We are the spinning, hobbling,
waddling clowns in the eyes of our vividly delineated secret
police.
“Oh, no!” (Can you hear the outcry?) Oh, yes, writes
Walter Bowart in this fearful record you now hold in your
hands.
Apologists rush in, hired for all such occasions from
everywhere, by the secret government crying out, “You are, as
usual, like all of your exaggerating kind, making a mountain
out of a molehill. While it may (or may not) be true that our
secret police occasionally swing the sledgehammer on little
minds, it is (or is not) being done as a patriotic act to protect
our beloved people.” They reel backward, hands clutching
chests as the full realization seems to hit them. “My God! Bowart
cannot believe that our government of the people, by the
people, and for the people would use such loathsome forces
against citizens. If such research were done (or was not done)
then it would be for purely abstract research reasons—for the
expansion of human knowledge.”

Walter Bowart’s book is also a freezing vision of the mutations
of the aspirations of science. Scientists, educators, and
their leaders, The Great Men, having stumbled upon the possibility
of controlling the human mind, might well have withheld
this knowledge from the secret police and brought it forward
for all to share, would you not say? If the means are at
hand actually to enter and control the mind—not through the
far-off smoke signals of psychiatry and psychoanalysis—can
we conceive of what might be found in terms of medical triumphs,
the conquest of pain and of group hatreds, and mental
energy released by unraveling the Gordian knots of mental
perplexity to make one straight laser line that might then
pierce the doubts and fears which beset each one of us? In
terms of education light-years ahead of the educational means
we presently employ, in basic and advanced learning of cultures,
languages, and skills; in short, understanding each other
across the face of the world, this development of Mind Control
makes the invention of movable type seem like a primordial
grunt from the shadows of a rain forest lost in time.

What has been achieved by the secret police in relation to
mind control is scrupulously set down in Walter Bowart’s
extraordinary book. The question the book puts is this: do you
wish this immeasurably important technique to remain as a
weapon to be used against you and your children by what
Bowart calls the cryptocracy, or do you wish to use it as a universal
key to unlock a thousand new chances that your children
will not be murdered in future wars?


In an epigraph to this book, Zbigniew Brzezinski measures
the political probabilities of mind control use when he
says, “exploiting the latest communications techniques to manipulate
emotion and control reason.” Today our secret police
and our military establishment have demonstrated, in Vietnam
and elsewhere (examined by Bowart herein), the powers to
create assassins out of our children. The expansion of these
powers, which are able to turn young men and women into
murderous criminals at will, goes on unchecked by the oft called
“investigative” press, by “moral” leaders at the bar, in
the pulpits, in high government, and on campuses. Yet the
people they call the public have long suspected that it has become
government policy to control minds.
If there is general
information abroad on this subject, then consider that which
must be at the disposal of congressional investigating committees
as they bugle their determination to control the powers of
darkness within our secret police. Zombie is a quaint, old fashioned
folklore word but its meaning becomes obscene
when our children’s minds are being controlled by any one of
dozens of federal secret police agencies. Have government
agencies perfected methods sustained by the taxpayers to control
the minds of the people who shot the Kennedys, Martin
Luther King, and Orlando Letelier, the former Chilean
economist and diplomat. Were the assassins programmed to
forget they did it or were they programmed to do it? We may
never know for they stand bewildered, idiotically grinning for
the cameras. Have the technicians developed a model Giant,
Economy-Size Government Assassin which can easily be
turned out by the thousands?


The murders of a few hundred humans by a few hundred
other humans is commonplace enough but, for the flavor of
horror and terror, of endless nightmare rampant upon a landscape
of what was once American democracy, consider this
expansion of the Brzezinski epigraph which cannot be repeated
often enough: “In the techtronic society the trend
would seem to be toward the aggregation of the individual
support of millions of uncoordinated citizens, easily within the
reach of magnetic and attractive personalities, effectively exploiting
the latest communications techniques to manipulate
emotion and control reason.”
The threatening state of American political leadership
over the last fifteen years may seem to murmur that the “magnetic
and attractive personalities” might rather not resist the
destruction of democratic institutions by “effectively exploiting”
these shocking gains into the control of minds. It might
even be wise to consider Walter Bowart’s real evidence
herein, then to do what we can to protect ourselves if that
proud right, with the love of freedom, has not been atrophied
by “the latest communications techniques.”
There is an alternative. We can all forever more be transformed
into the image of Grock the clown.
