(crossposted at my blog)<br><br>I touched a nerve when I published Sex, Drugs, Mind Control and Gitmo in July of 2005. More than anything else I've written in recent years, it was circulated and republished widely. In that article, I suggested that the goings-on at Abu Ghraib and Gitmo were not just examples of bored, unsupervised soldiers gone wild, but were part of a cleverly orchestrated, historically documented program of sexual/ritualistic mind control. <br><br>Time has only added more evidence that I was correct.<br><br>From Salon's exclusive:<br><br>"A review of all the computer media submitted to this office revealed a total of 1,325 images of suspected detainee abuse, 93 video files of suspected detainee abuse, <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>660 images of adult pornography,</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> 546 images of suspected dead Iraqi detainees, <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>29 images of soldiers in simulated sexual acts, 20 images of a soldier with a Swastika drawn between his eyes,</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> 37 images of Military Working dogs being used in abuse of detainees and 125 images of questionable acts."<br><br>And:<br><br>The DVD also includes photographs of guards threatening Iraqi prisoners with dogs, homemade videotapes depicting hooded prisoners being forced to masturbate, and a video showing a mentally disturbed prisoner smashing his head against a door. <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Oddly, the material also includes numerous photographs of slaughtered animals</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> and mundane images of soldiers traveling around Iraq.<br><br>Salon claims that this batch "may represent all of the photographic and video evidence that pertains to that investigation."<br><br>I suspect a limited hangout.<br><br>We have yet to see the photos and videotapes of <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.boingboing.net/2004/07/15/hersh_children_raped.html">children being raped and tortured.</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> And we probably never will. That might be a little too much for a war-weary public to handle. And if you think the rioting over anti-Muslim cartoons was a big deal...<br><br>Let's look at the elements and try to ascertain the bigger picture behind the reprehensible images.<br><br>Rape. Torture. Circles of candles. Swastikas. Sexual activity among the torturers themselves, often in front of the detainees. Creation of cognitive dissonance to fracture the minds of the victims. Mutilated animals.<br><br>This is not the picture of a program designed to elicit actionable information. It is a program to shatter minds, perhaps to rebuild them as a new generation of assassins.<br><br>And it's right out of a dark occultist's playbook.<br><br>For more on the subject, see the Sex, Drugs, Mind Control and Torture index.<br><br>http://www.charm.net/~profpan/2005/11/sex-drugs-mind-control-and-torture.html <p></p><i></i>
