What Lies Beneath

From our last post, we have this comment from Dream's End reader Anonymous (who has written some fine erotica, I might add.)

Welcome back!

Can't wait to hear your take on Hunter S. Thompson... [ties to child molestation/snuff/porn ring which include elite political figureheads? Suicide or made-to-look-like-a suicide?]

...wrote some great books though...

Thanks, Anon. But you are spoiling it for everyone. I'm never going to see a movie with you.

Let's review. I started last time talking about my wife who has a condition called D.I.D. I didn't and won't say a whole lot more about her, because that's personal. She's well on her way to full functionality, I'm happy to say.

I mentioned that this condition is of interest to government spook types and that there is a long paper trail showing exactly that. I mentioned Colin Ross's book, Bluebird as a place to see some of this information. The book is fairly damning, but keep in mind that he only used information that had been declassified. Also keep in mind his weird need not to make the CIA look bad in his book. Not an easy job, that.

I didn't mention, but will now, the famous radiation experiments which were performed in the 40's through the 70's. These experiments involved exposing and injecting unknowing subjects with radiation just to see what would happen. The Department of Energy has a website about the experiments here.

These are relevant for two, no make that three reasons.

1. The experiments show that our government and various research universities were perfectly willing to experiment on unwilling and unknowing human subjects, including children. Nice.
2. Clearly, before the story broke about these experiments and hearings were held, anyone who had come out and said that the government had performed such experiments on them would have been given a Golden Ticket to their nearest asylum. This doesn't prove anything about other conspiracies, but does show that we should be at least somewhat cautious about dismissing such allegations.
   
3. In 1995 there were Congressional hearings on these experiments in which a small amount of time was given to some people claiming that they'd been victims of mind control experiments since they were children. The testimony was within these hearings because the victims alleged that some of the doctors prominent in the radiation experiments also figured in the mind control experiments. Here's a place to start if you'd like to read their testimony.

It's number 3 I'm going to talk about for a bit. First off, let's note that therapist Valerie Wolf says that when it was made known that she was going to testify about mind control experiments which some of her clients were victims of she was contacted by 40 other therapists with similar stories. Secondly, she claims that much of this information was remembered spontaneously or continuously without the aid of hypnosis, so all the recovered memory hoopla doesn't really apply.

Let's stop and take a breath. If you've never been exposed to this information before, you are likely to simply dismiss it. Look, the Congress actually held hearings back in the 70's on mind control research by the CIA under the code name MKULTRA. I don't believe they focused on the deliberate creation of multiple personalities but there's an awful lot of stuff that has been admitted to on the record such as use of hypnosis, sometimes accompanied by drugs such as LSD, surgical brain implants and other "brainwashing" techniques. This is all a matter of public record. We can't dispute that these things occurred.

Secondly, we have the radiation experiments to help us understand that the government was perfectly happy to experiment in destructive ways on children. This, too, is a matter of public record.

Now, we add to this testimony about abusive treatment, that is, the deliberate application of trauma to children in order to create useful "Manchurian candidates" trained to do the government's bidding without even being aware of their activities. This stuff has NOT been acknowledged by the government. We have testimony and we have documents showing the government's interest in the possibility of creating Manchurian candidates, but no document that says: on this date, we applied electric torture followed by hypnosis on this little girl who retained no memory of the ordeal. Naturally, if there were such documents, they would never see the light of day, but I simply want to differentiate proven facts from allegations which I find convincing but have not yet been substantiated by government records.

We also have the clinical information about D.I.D. That is to say, D.I.D. seems often, if not always, to be a result of trauma, most usually trauma induced by someone who has control over the victim, such as a parent. Sexual abuse is particularly likely to trigger dissociative responses. And this brings us to Hunter S. Thompson.

Recently, Hunter S. Thompson allegedly committed suicide via a handgun shot to the head. Thompson is most famous for founding the "Gonzo journalism" style and for books such as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I'd always enjoyed his writings.

I saw his name mentioned in another context, however, and until recently I had completely dismissed this allegation. A week ago, however, I went to a bookstore, found Thompson's latest book and verified that a passage I'd seen quoted was indeed within that book. I'll get to that.

But first, you'll have to be aware of the Franklin Savings and Loan Scandal. It's way too big for me to get into details. I think it would be worth your time, however, to learn the details yourself. The best way would be to have a look at a documentary that was scheduled to air in 1994. Evidently, though I've not confirmed this, the documentary was actually listed in TV guide and was to be shown on the Discovery Channel. At the last second it was pulled and most copies were destroyed.

The Scandal went way beyond finances and involved a prominent Republican's ferrying of children from an orphanage to provide prostitution services to high powered political figures. Some of this had reached the light of day before, during the famous (but shortlived) Congressional call boy scandal in 1989. This went much further. I highly recommend you go here or here and download a copy of the documentary yourself to understand what we are dealing with. Go ahead and watch it and get back to me.

Done? Frightening, huh? I want you to keep in mind that there very well may be some disinformation games being played in all of this. John DeCamp, for example, the former Nebraska state congressman who was the main investigator, brags of his friendship with former CIA head William Colby who actually appears in the video. This does not make me feel warm and fuzzy, so do be cautious in accepting everything DeCamp says at face value.

Now, what's this to do with Hunter Thompson? Well, one of the victims of the Franklin scandal was a guy named Paul Bonnaci. He has stated that he was involved in a child snuff video which was actually "directed" by someone named Hunter Thompson. People had assumed this was the famous writer, but I hadn't seen that confirmed anywhere. You can read about this and about connections among Bonnaci, a young man named Johnny Gosch who was kidnapped in 1982 and the recent scandal of male prostitute/blogger/"reporter" Jeff Gannon at this site. This article was written in "Point Blank" a rather mainstream weekly. You could view it yourself on its site of origin, only they got shut down a week or so after this article appeared. Go figure.

This stuff is all over the internet, though as I mentioned you'll have to be careful in what you accept and what you dismiss. For example, one handy disinformation technique is to get someone involved in a legitimate case, such as the Franklin case, and then start putting out additional false information that discredits the information that is accurate. There could be some of that going on here, so just keep that in mind.

But be cautious in your use of the above caution as well...err, or something like that. I had assumed that Bonnaci's mention of Hunter Thompson was surely a case of disinformation. Why the hell would Thompson go about doing something so heinous and telling the kids his real name? Clearly this bit of information had been fed to Bonnaci in order to discredit other aspects of his testimony. At least, that's what I thought until I opened Thompson's last book and saw this:

The autumn months are never a calm time in America. . . . There is always a rash of kidnapping and abductions of schoolchildren in the football months. Preteens of both sexes are traditionally seized and grabbed off the streets by gangs of organized perverts who traditionally give them as Christmas gifts to each other to be personal sex slaves and playthings. (from Hey, Rube, p. 3)

I suppose Thompson could have been playing around with those accusations, an inside joke, if you will. But they really weren't that widely known, so who would have gotten the joke? Anyway, a bullet in his brain will prevent us from asking him directly.


Let's review:

1. The government is willing and able to perform covert and harmful experiments on its citizens, including on children. The government itself established this fact in their hearings on radiation experiments.
2. The government has been and likely remains interested in techniques to control the thought processes of individuals for purposes of espionage and who knows what the hell else. This, too, is a fact, though the most horrific approaches involving deliberate application of trauma are not confirmed by government documents...only by testimony of alleged victims. If you don't think this is possible, by the way, I encourage you to review the case of Patty Hearst. What is the "Hearst syndrome" after all, but an abuse victim who blindly obeys her abuser?
3. I think it is clear that there is a network (how organized I can't say) of prostitutes, including child prostitutes, who service our political elites. In addition, it seems obvious that anyone who could control such prostitutes could also get plenty of blackmail material on those who participate.
   
4. The Franklin case shows us that kids in orphanages might be one source of child prostitutes (really, sex slaves is a better term as the kids don't get to keep the money) and the case of Johnny Gosch, while murky, suggests that other child prostitutes are likely kidnapped, as Thompsons suggests, right off the streets. Bonnaci himself claims to have been part of Gosch's abduction and further claims that he and Gosch were part of project Monarch...a project basically along the lines of Bluebird, specifically involving training and brainwashing children for lives of espionage and sexual servitude. Much of the information on Monarch that I've seen other than Bonnaci's comes from a source I don't trust, but in any event, we see how our two threads of child sexual slavery and government mind control games move in the same circles.
   
5. There is a widespread international trade in sex slaves. This New York Times articletalks in general terms about international sex slaves being brought into the United States. It doesn't confine itself to children but does, for whatever reason, confine itself only to female victims. In any event, it will surprise no one that the international sex slavery industry makes procuring victims a trivial matter. How hard is it to imagine that the folks behind both Bluebird type mind control experiments and CIA operatives looking to raise illegal cash and keep politicians on a short leash would take advantage of this lucrative business. And in the article, please do notice how one girl taught others to "float away" (i.e. dissociate) so that their treatment at the hands of the "johns" wouldn't hurt. Also please notice the errors mentioned at the end of the article. One of the errors was that they did not disclose that one of the interviewees had multiple personalities. They give a caveat about how multiple personality disorder leads to "false memories" though this particular woman's story seemed to check out. I would like to point out the obvious that even the False Memory Foundation never suggests that dissociative disorders CAUSE false memories...only that bad therapists implant these memories during hypnosis. They also interviewed an expert who helpfully explained that Multiple Personality Disorder is a common result of sexual abuse.
   
6. The connection of this sex trade to political elites and intelligence agencies is strongly suggested by this series of articles by Dave McGowan. He really pulls this together so you should take the time to read them. The links for the rest of the series are in blue boxes at the bottom. Read all of them.
   

I guess what I'm suggesting...and we are only scratching the surface here...is that the reality that underlies the political facade in this country and in much of the rest of the world is dark, corrupt and completely immune to "reform" movements. For example, and this is purely hypothetical you understand, let's suppose that Tony Blair likes to diddle little boys. Let's further suppose that someone in one of these shadowy networks either provided him an expendable sex slave, from Ukraine, say, and then took a few snapshots. Or perhaps he was provided with some boy programmed to service him via project Bluebird (or Monarch if it exists). Either way, he's totally at the mercy of whoever is calling the shots. I have to say that if Blair, whose support of Bush and the war strikes me as so counterproductive to his own image as to be pathological, doesn't get a REALLY cushy job on a board of directors for some oil company after he's done with politics then I will assume that this hypothetical has to be true. How else could you explain it?

Nothing I've written here will convince even someone on the fence about these issues, much less a sceptic. That's not the point...I can't do that blog style, at least not in one entry. But I want readers to begin their own search. You've got brains and the internet...now use them. Despite the con artists and disinformation specialists out there, the truth is not really that well hidden. We won't/can't know all the details, but you'll soon start to get the picture.

Here's a story I leave you with to show you the kinds of things to start looking for. It's not a pretty one, and I will print it here, but you can link to the orinal article here.

Italy investigating 186 over child torture site

Tue May 24, 2:10 PM ET

ROME (Reuters) - Italian police are investigating 186 people including three priests after uncovering an Internet pornography site for pedophiles that showed young children being tortured, an official said Tuesday.

Police said the anonymous web site had been protected by a password and was only accessible for nine days last year in an apparent effort to avoid detection.

But a tip-off to a child-abuse telephone helpline allowed computer experts to track down the users. Besides the Roman Catholic priests, police also believe a mayor, a teacher and a doctor downloaded illegal videos.

"The children on the films were aged between 4 and 8 at most. Some were abused, others were even tortured," said Domenico Di Somma, coordinator for the police computer investigation taskforce.

Police have confiscated computers across Italy, but have not yet pressed charges as they continue with their investigation.

The head of an Italian child protection organization said the case, which was centered on the Mediterranean island of Sicily, was just the tip of an iceberg.

"Dismay turns to uncontrollable rage when you are confronted by these images which not even the most hardened maker of horror films could bear to watch," Antonio Marziale of the Observatory of Child Rights was quoted as saying by Ansa news agency.

"Pedophilia has assumed emergency proportions and should be top of the government's agenda." (I would add that the torture of young children goes well beyond pedophilia.)

Now what do you want to bet that children who were abused by this ring are having this conversation with themselves right now: "My memory is hazy but in therapy I had this flashback of a man in a black robe torturing me. The FSFM says that these memories were all implanted by my therapist. Besides, things like that just don't happen."
