6:02 pm
torturing essentially we blind ourselves. but we could in fact, create a democratic society which actually has consistently valuable and effective techniques to fight terror. the fact that we don't is more an expression of our own anxieties and fears were so called test interrogation techniques used by the u. s. officials were basically designed as techniques to break down the human mind and therefore also the body because they are very connected and leave no physical traces. it's an extremely destructive practice. torture on, of course, on those who receive this pain and suffering,
6:03 pm
but also on the society that becomes a society of cruelty. what we've done is we've not so much lost the war on torture as we've won the war on democracy. and that through terrorizing a population over a period of decades, so that there's nobody in this country who didn't grow up with some booky man, some danger. first, it was communism. then it was terrorism for, we are obviously engaged in many facets of what is generally called the cold war, richer the communists policies force no don as the engage in any political activity or any intelligence there
6:04 pm
was not approved. at the highest level, there was a concern that emerged in the 1st article in the late notice that the soviets had cracked the code of human consciousness. that they knew how to apply pressure upon the human mind and break the human mind. and it was that, that set off this whole pursuit that laid ultimately to the, the creation of the she eyes, doctrine of psychological torture. this was a time of the brain washing scare. there were show trials in eastern europe, in hungary and poland, which aroused a lot of concern in the west because people seem to be confessing to crimes that they hadn't committed or
6:05 pm
mm hm. most importantly was the child of cardinal mines and sky and hungry. and jessica was already in natural war 2, quite famous because she was known for having resisted the nazis and their occupation of hunger. and then after the war, he became the cardinal. and the primary of the church. they arrested him. they can find him, it was jesus being an aristocrat. he became a kind of target of that regime. and then he was put on trial, were publicly he confessed to the charges against him. and there was this fear in washington, the prince of the church. a man known for his courage under nazi pressure that if he could be broken clearly, the soviets work session of techniques. mm.
6:06 pm
the c i a's reaction was primarily around what they thought was brainwashing their concerns with communist brainwashing. what they never seemed to realize was that these communist techniques were actually borrowed originally from earlier american techniques in the 1920s in 1900 ten's, using sleep deprivation, exhaustion exercises. all these other techniques were standards, domestic policing tortures. and they were also driven by 2nd concern. there was a moral panic in the 1950s that an american p o w is in korea. they confess to things that were completely untrue. and it didn't look like they had been torturing during the korean more. what happened was that there were captain down american aviators, and there were around 30 pilots,
6:07 pm
a testimonies. there were 4 pilots that broadcast on radio bear june, alleging that the united states was using bacteriological warfare against the korean people after the armistice. when these pilots were released or brought back and they were put through court martials and they realize that they had been put through what was then called brain wash. if you describe the method used by the communists? interrogated oh yes, i would put these methods into to categorize physical torture all the start and mental torture. it consisted mainly of standing at attention, having my faith flap once in awhile and i did fail to respond as they wanted me to it consistent of being confined in a very close area. the mental treatment which they gave was a start day designed to try to wear down
6:08 pm
my resistance to their interrogation to break my willpower to force me in some manner to confess. a mind control project starts in 250. this was a project that involved a $1000000000.00 a year. there was a, a formal creation, a british american operation at the highest levels in order to mobilize behavioral scientists. so these 3 countries in order to kind of crack the code of human consciousness, ah, or, or medical doctors or cornell university medical school in new york city. they got access to some other more classified material on people that escaped from the soviet union and have been tortured in the survey in wolf was
6:09 pm
a very well known neurologist. he had a personal relationship with alan dell as the head of the cia and with the human ecology of fine walls offered to who does see i essentially a friends in order to study questions of brainwashing what they discovered. i was 11 of the 2 foundational techniques and the ca, doctrine of a psychological torture. they discovered a self inflicted pain. what they described in that, in their, in their co author article was that the most devastating technique that the k g, b and cavity practice was not crude, physical beatings. but simply making subject stand immobile for hours and days at a time. if you force a human being to stay in a certain position, especially position that puts a little stress on ligaments or muscles or bones,
6:10 pm
joints. it doesn't take very long for the pain involved to become absolutely excruciating. but nobody's lane figure finger on you. you are doing it to yourself. ah, that was one of the techniques, the over technique they discovered was from the, the, the, the biomedical research. there was dr. hat's work. it was the chair of the psychology department at mcgill university in canada. students volunteered to participate in the study of human behavior under extreme and prolong monotony. their hands and arms were softly covered to muffle a sense of touch, all harsh ride subdued by a mass comfortable bell choir. and yet it was impossible for most of these students
6:11 pm
to take it for more than $24.00 or 48 hours. sensory deprivation really is a way of producing cream monotony. it's a horrible experience getting worse and worse for a sub he's talked about cooling. what they said was of the degree of board of became intolerable. and was one sided shed as bad as anything you had left to hitler had ever done to any of his son, teresa victims. as we know from almost any basic medical understanding human contact is what makes us human. and a let enables a person to have it a sense of normalcy in their lives. and when they are completely isolated from any human contact and often kept in this sensory isolation, you will literally easily become severely mentally impaired.
6:12 pm
and then they came okay, consult of a she i continued to work for them is really the progenitor, modern psychological torture on death. this project funded another guy, mcgill named dr. canon camera. what your and cameron did at alamo, maryland city was, was close to monstrous. ah, i came in psychotherapy, i was crying, crying cry, it was a hopeless. i didn't know what to expect. they said i was going to the psychiatric ward you met that man, that the cameron, that's you and cameron? yes, i met him and we were all was terrified of him. why? we all felt fear. we all had
6:13 pm
a fear of him and we didn't want him to notice us because whatever he did, it would never. there was a patient with them. the patient was always screaming no one else shows the wrong one. i just don't know. i mean you world the easier to see out disdain becomes the advocate. an engagement. it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. oh is your media a reflection of reality in
6:14 pm
the world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation, whole community? are you going the right way or are you being led to somewhere? direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend, who join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. these are the days and hours. oh, the occasion professor, you and cameron was a very famous psychiatrist. he was head of the american psychiatric association and the world psychiatric association. he was the top of the field. at the same time,
6:15 pm
he seemed pretty much willing to do anything. and the for the cia to find a doctor who didn't have limits in a nearby cap, but oh, with lots of patients to work with last as subs as subjects was somebody they were interested in supporting patients would come in ah, worth ordinary psychological emotional problems. they sign their waivers and they would be subjected to this czar urging of xtreme center deprivation isolation for, for up to a month. one of his favorite things was he had a server football helmet with a tape recorder in it that would play a tape and look up to 500000 times savings like my mother hates me. and he would blit the brain with globe's inter deprivation. and kind of psychological
6:16 pm
emotional assault. well, what's working? i mean it's garbage move. ah, oh, what he did was he would put people under massive electro shock and he would give it to the banner prolong basis along with what he called sleep therapy. his idea was, once you wipe the brain clean, you could wipe out the side of the a buried behavior. the bad ideas, the ideas they were messing up people's minds. and you could program in other ideas . electrical vasa therapy picked up and was widely used in germany before it went anywhere else as a way of returning soldiers to war. the german army wasn't going to spend tons of money on psychotherapy for regular soldiers, so they were looking for cheap and effective ways to send soldiers back to war. it
6:17 pm
then moves into the united states in the clinical note of march 23rd. 19. $62.00 confirms a $129.00 e. c. t. 's cameron's clinical notice september 12th recommend patterning and sleep . the clinical notes of october, 19th, november, 1st november, 3rd, november 8th, november 15, all confirmed the patterning and various stages myself to those that was falsely acting strange, right? my mother decided to have, i decided to have the bill to the and find out what was wrong. so i went to the on a couple of months later, and the bathroom has shocked on me. i was in now on for 6 months and this would repeat yeah, over days and days and weeks and yeah,
6:18 pm
it's what you feel you have been through being the patent. yes, i guess and i say you in mariah and are different we're older or a somehow could be yeah well. 1 they didn't finish the treatments with me. so when i came out, i was still active and so on. but they did. you went through 3 sessions of d patterning treatments. and when i asked you about things before you don't, you don't remember like i say, if i ask you what were you? what's that for you typing for the national defense, for instance. oh, on that now, are there certain things in your memory that you just don't remember? oh, i disperse, hospitalized. i was about 1616 and a half. the doctors pushed me into a sleep therapy. and that was it for about 3 weeks in sort of
6:19 pm
a deep sleep. but i don't remember getting up to go to the washroom. i don't, i just remember that the doctor came in occasionally to feed me, and that was it. and then shortly after a while there was another patient that came in and she was an older one and she slept in the other bed. when i started to wake up, i've saw these patients and these patients were in tube, some of them they had earphones and headphones. i dont know if they did any of that to me because when i, with the 1st 3 weeks, i don't know what happened. but this was d patterning. ah, the, she is doctrine of psychological torture that they develop through research in the decade, the 1950s. and was codified in the cupboard counterintelligence interrogation manual. oh hm.
6:20 pm
mm mm. mm. as to basic techniques on which all the rest of the procedures to run one is sensor deprivation. and the other is self inflicted pain. ah, the cia trained allied agencies in the techniques. so in effect, you know, knowing about, dissemination about is huge, send these techniques to other armies. could you take an ordinary individual, like a resty or recruit and make a person become an effective interrogate? and it seems that mil gms experiment was a liking part of this project. when i learned of incidents such as the destruction of millions of men,
6:21 pm
women and children, perpetrated by the nazis in world war 2. how is it possible i asked myself that ordinary people were courteous and decent in everyday life? can i callously in you mainly without any limitations of conscience? under what conditions, when a person obey authority, who commanded actions and went against conscience? these are exactly the questions that i wanted to investigate at your university. the motor experiment very simply was assimilated torture. this was one. not all the research we've been describing is the impact of interrogation upon the subject. milligram had another agenda, the impact of interrogation upon the interrogator. if he were to indicate the wrong answer, you would say wrong. then tell him the number of rolls you're going to give him. then give him the punishment and read the correct word pair. once he got an
6:22 pm
ordinary people who fit by all the regular scales, very normal americans. and then he subjected them under false collar to just to doing what he called an educational experiment. in try to encourage people to apply ever higher voltages. as a false patient kept on getting, making mistakes. in fact, milgar was able to encourage, at least in his 1st experiments, i think close to 70 percent, to go on to apply highly dangerous and sometimes fatal shocks. i'm not going to get that man. think of that, what it is, i mean there are no lights in and out. we must go on until you've done wrong. i refuse to take the responsibility and get her minis under our it's actually essential. as you continue teacher,
6:23 pm
there are still lending left here. i mean, ged going get wrong, good as to learn in last. i mean i was going to take the responsibility of only have was a gentleman responsible for anything that happened to continue with. i natural slow . wow, dad truck music answer plays wrong . ah 95 old dance. i mean, yeah, he did this simply with a very simple thing. putting the person behind the wall and having a person with a white lab coat, telling them that they needed to continue. very ordinary people can be influenced by situations. and it's one of the implications of both the milligram experiment is embargo
6:24 pm
the stanford prison experiment was i think, a unique attempt to answer that question of what makes some people behave in good way. but i make some people behaving a bad way. and so the idea was let's, let's find an evil place and prisons everywhere in the world are evil places. and let's fill this evil place with only good people. to get the students involved, i had convinced the palo alto police department to make mach arrest of all the students who got a president. and then they came down to the basement of at stanford psychology department. the place where the prison study was done. the idea is prison is made to feel inferior, insignificant,
6:25 pm
worthless. the most important thing is you take away their name, they become a number. and of course, given they have smocks it with no under pans, then behind is showing like my 1st hour in there. it was humiliating, lose also, abrupt was quick. it was just, you know, take them off, put this on. and then i got dusted with baking soda, which was supposed to be the d. lauser. and i was living in the cell. what some bardo did was a very cheap dark off of the kind of thing that milgram was doing. not always embargo, but i think, you know, the guard called john wayne believed that ethics don't matter if the environment is artificial and that's not true. all life is real life
6:26 pm
we needed to get tougher with the prisoners and it could well be that we were instructed by the experimenters to get over. in fact, i don't think we considered ourselves to be a subject of the experiment. we're merely a tool of the research is to get the results they wanted from the real subjects, which we thought were the prisoners. and i decided to become the nastiest prison guard that i could make myself or i was responsible for coming up with all these routines that i would put the prisoners through where i'd have them stand and align, recite their numbers, do push up to do jumping jacks i had never once stop to think that these prisoners were suffering any harm or any damage. we're not,
6:27 pm
we're not beating anybody. we're just sort of applying psychological pressure on them. oh wow. yeah. a harms me. how did, how does it, how does that mean that people can be like, yeah, and let me in on some knowledge that, that i've never experienced firsthand. i read about it, i read a lot about it, but i've never experienced it. and i've never seen someone turn that way and i know you're a nice guy. you know, well, you and then what would you have that? i don't know. ah, as a conflict, can ukraine continue? so does the information war, the liberal west appears,
6:28 pm
determined to deny any meaningful debate about the conflict. freedom of expression is now something of the past and information, iron curtain, as to say, look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about our personal intelligence. at that point, obviously is too great truck rather than fear a job with artificial intelligence. real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with a
6:29 pm
news and tax on other countries. economic sanctions are, are often just the beginning. another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries which are talking about here. and there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country. we have a responsibility for the whole and we need to make rules for the rest. because without out there, we can do . situational forces can overwhelm,
6:30 pm
can dominate even the best of us, ordinary people, put in a bad evil environment, can become transformed to become part of that negative environment. and it's any of us, or in fact most of us the office of naval intelligence, it was pretty consistent, caught out front for cia, they funded much of this research. and i don't know if there was a yield that they, they produce a yield for this cruel science. i don't, that's it. maybe i'm wrong. i just don't think they do it might play out spectacularly in the military. so the connections would be much further down the road. it would be particularly in the iraq war and in the setting up of getting.
