david icke--I mentioned in a recent newsletter how I once told a British journalist about the government/military mind control programmes and offered to put him in contact with victims who could confirm what I said. He called it 'the story of the century'. But instead of coming back to me for the contact details he wrote an article the following week attacking me and what I do.It was, therefore, ironic to me, though no less welcome, that his newspaper, the Observer, should now, eight years later, run an article headlined: 'We are moving ever closer to the era of mind control'. I do, however, contest the word 'moving'. We are actually there and it is just a case of how deeply it takes hold of the individual and collective human psyche.
Mind control has always been with us and operates on multi-levels. For instance, if I tell you something knowing it to be untrue and that affects your perception and behaviour then I have subjected you to mind control. I have manipulated your thoughts and every time you watch television this is happening. Each advertisement is designed to control your thought and emotional patterns to the point where you buy whatever is being peddled.
I have seen advertising copy-writers and producers being dubbed 'the Persuaders', but that's a bit like calling an axe murderer 'a man who works with tools'. It doesn't tell the full story. 'The Persuaders' is newspeak for mind manipulators. Subliminal messages that speak to the subconscious, calculated emotional triggers, and using key words to glean a specific reaction is not persuasion, it is invasion. An invasion of our sense of perception.
Such techniques have been with us for thousands of years - at least - in the sense of manipulating thoughts and emotions to dictate behaviour. A pub close to where I live on the Isle of Wight in England has a First World War poster on the wall announcing a meeting for the 'Men of the Wight' to hear government officials and a church minister tell them why they should volunteer to be slaughtered in the trenches of northern France. The poster says that 'patriotic airs' will be sung.
But of course they would. Manipulate them to feel the patriotism for their 'great country', make them feel like heroes defending 'freedom' and they will step forward, chin up, chest out, and go off to die. It is simply mind control and we still see it today, especially in America, where dying for your country (in truth dying for those destroying your country) is considered heroic.
The level of mind control involved in this doublethink can be seen in the fact of who is doing the fighting and what they are fighting for. In the First World War, for example, millions of men fought and died for a Britain that had subjected them to the most abject poverty while the upper 'strata' of the rich and privileged dictated political and economic policy to make themselves even richer and more privileged.
In short ... it is the men from the slums who fight the wars while the men from the mansions command them.
cos i have a friggin mind of my own
The absence of mind activity that leads the poor to fight wars for the rich has bewildered me since I was a kid, but, as the Observer article, well, observed, we are 'moving' towards - I would say 'in' - a new and far more advanced era of thought dictatorship. The article was written by Steven Rose, a Professor of Biology at the Open University, and he highlights the sinister nature of the new mind technologies.
Once you realise that the human body is a biological computer (see Infinite Love Is The Only Truth - Everything Else Is Illusion) and that the brain is the CPU or Central Processing Unit of the computer, then mind control can be simply understood. It is a biological version of computer programming, that's all.
You download instructions onto the hard drive and the computer - via the brain/CPU - responds accordingly. That is, unless your higher levels of consciousness kick in and wrest the keyboard from the hacker. Rose writes:
'Brain scientists are on a roll. Concern about rising levels of mental distress have resulted in unprecedented levels of funding in the US and Europe. And a range of new technologies, from genetics to brain imaging, are offering extraordinary insights into the molecular and cellular processes underlying how we see, how we remember, why we become emotional.
Brain imaging has become familiar. Scanners, known by their initials - CAT, PET, MRI - began as clinical tools, enabling surgeons to identify potential tumours, the damage following a stroke or the diagnostic signs of incipient dementia. But neuroscientists quickly seized on their wider potential. The images of regions of the brain 'lighting up' when a person is thinking of their lover, imagining travelling from home to the shops, or solving a mathematical problem, have captured the imagination of researchers and public alike. What if they could do more?'
If you followed the electrical signals in a computer you would see different parts 'light up' - become active - when different instructions are keyed in and the brain is the same, albeit infinitely more sophisticated. And the question 'What if they could do more?' can be answered with 'They already can and the development program has been underway for at least decades'.
