Cold War physics in neuroscience is now revealing the probability of a successfully weaponized brain by Cheryl Welsh, May 2013 Click here for full background article. A hypothetical conversation on neuroweapons between a famous skeleton and a skull called Yorick.

Question: "What facts are hidden in plain sight?"

Answer: "When you find the missing biophysics, you find a weaponized brain nearby."

Book cover; On the Structure of the Human Body , Andreas Vesalius (1514-1564)

Front page January 15, 1960 New York Times, “Khrushchev says Soviet will cut forces a third; sees ‘fantastic’ weapon,” by Max Frankel. The Premier also said Soviet scientists had “a new and fantastic weapon in the hatching stage.” Converging facts supports that Khrushchev may have been referring to secret neuroweapons.

The Electrochemical Brain

“[E]lectrical signals provide the most efficient method of transmitting information within the body. No living creature could survive without electricity, because the body is, in essence, an electrical machine.” (Chase, 2006, Introduction). Electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism are interconnected phenomena, including in the brain. All electromagnetic waves are mathematically identical with relationships along a continuum known as the electromagnetic spectrum, for example microwaves, light and also the kilohertz oscillations by the neurons in the brain. (Gilder, Telecosm, 2000, p. 16). The public needs to know very basic neuroscience required for neuroweapons development. This does NOT require rocket science or a neuroscientist to understand it but it does require information that has been missing in the public forum. Solving how the electrochemical brain works is both a physics and a biology problem. Since the 1950s, research on the bioelectricity of the brain--with the exception of the extensive research on the action potential of the brain cell called the neuron--has remained classified. At the same time, molecular biology and biochemistry dominated unclassified neuroscience research. To a great extent, neuroscientists continue to study brain biology without physics. At the same time, US government scientists have utilized both physics and biology of the brain and this almost certainly led to successfully developed neuroweapons. Classified Neuroscience research

Biophysics, Bioelectronics

In 1954, George Beadle, Nobel laureate and member of the Atomic Energy Commission advisory committee on biology and medicine, warned: Like many others, I see in our present security system a machine so complex in its operation that, once having been set in motion, it is almost impossible either to control or to stop. And I sense a real danger that it may destroy our way of life if we do not find a way to control it. (Who wrote the book of life? Kay, 2000, p.132).

Side view of one half of the human brain Unclassified Neuroscience research



Molecular Biology, Biochemistry

In 2012, there were 40,000 members of American Society for Neuroscience with “massive representation of molecular biology, cognitive psychology and brain imaging.” (The good, the true and the beautiful, Changeux, 2012, p.317). Molecular biology is now expected to take the dominant role in the twenty-first century that physics played in the twentieth. (Design for life, DeChadarevian, 2002, p.1).



December 29, 1939 New York Post, “We're All Radio Stations, Columbia Scientists Reports, All Atoms, in Humans or in Steel, Found to Emit and Receive Long Waves." First two sentences from December 29, 1939 New York Post, “We're All Radio Stations, Columbia Scientists Reports, All Atoms, in Humans or in Steel, Found to Emit and Receive Long Waves."



Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 29 (AP). Every living thing on earth is a radio broadcasting and receiving set unconsciously sending out and receiving long-wave wireless messages.







Professor I. I. Rabi, Dr. P. Kusch and Dr. S. Millman of Columbia University told the American Association for the Advancement of Science today that all atoms, whether part of the heart tissue of man or a piece of steel, constantly emit radio waves which can be detected and measured.

The US atomic bomb exploded and the world discovered the existence of a formidable secret weapon. By contrast, Cold War mind control weapons that target the brain, today known as neuroweapons, are another formidable weapon whose power lies in their surreptitious use and keeping them secret forever. Physics dominated the first half of the twentieth century. Cold War mind control weapons, now called neuroweapons, the atomic bomb, microwave radar, and signals intelligence were all being developed in secret research requiring physics which overlapped with the physics and technologies required to study the brain. In the unclassified research world, neuroscientists have focused mainly on molecular biology and biochemistry, not physics and bioelectricity. Even Obama’s proposed brain mapping project is completely focused on molecular biology. How did this happen? Molecular biology and biophysics were taking off in the 1950s but the biophysics bubble bursts in the 1960s. (Rasmussen, The midcentury biophysics bubble: Hiroshima and the biological revolution in America, revisited", History of Science 35: 245, 1997). It is a fascinating obscure history. The history of bioelectricity in neuroscience is about extreme controversy and limits In the twentieth century, the neuron doctrine was a guiding principle of brain research; that the brain cell called the neuron is the primary functional signaling unit of the brain and connects with other neurons. This is also the principle behind the so-called connectionist model. In the 1950s, Hodgkin, Huxley and Eccles formulated the ionic hypothesis and they were awarded the 1963 Nobel Prize for this discovery. The hypothesis states that the action potential of the neuron is the ionic current of potassium, sodium and chloride ions passing through pores in the neuron’s membrane. (Neuroscience, Kandel, Science, 10 Nov. 2000). In 1953, Eccles published the influential book The neurophysiological basis of mind: The principles of neurophysiology, which “laid out the future of cellular and circuit neuroscience.” (Gordon, p. 94). Around the world, “studies of the synaptic organization of the neuron” and its pathways took off and this area of research has remained dominant. The neuron doctrine is fundamental to modern neuroscience although without expanding its principles, it is considered incomplete and too simplistic to explain how brain biology is related to human behavior. Neuroscientists have confined their physics research methods to neuron action potentials. Regarding the electricity of the brain; little else is accepted as valid in mainstream neuroscience today. Also in the 1950s, in order to understand the mechanisms of heredity, a race to reveal the chemical structure of DNA took place in labs around the world. (Gordon, p. 19). Watson and Crick won the DNA race and the Nobel Prize. Eccles and much of neuroscience joined the new molecular biology and biochemistry approach to the study of the brain which would completely overshadowed the dominant biophysics approach of Eccles and others at the time. This was in part due to the increasing use of the electron microscope and arguably, because so much of physics research was classified. Biophyics was absorbed by molecular biology which culminated in the Human Genome Project, as well as by biochemistry and modern neuroscience. Molecular biology is one major area of science that has dominated neuroscience research. (Squire, Fundamental Neuroscience, Fourth edition, 2013, p. 9) Technologies to access the brain provide further clues of secret neuroweapons It becomes relevant that today, unclassified neuroscience lacks technologies that can access the brain remotely although such tools are based on well-known physics principles. Even Obama’s Brain Mapping Project is focused on molecular biology and does not include plans for technologies to access the brain remotely, in spite of the preference for noninvasive remote methods. For example, invasive surgeries performed on healthy human subjects in experiments are unethical. I. I. Rabi, cited above in the "radio receivers newspaper article, won the 1944 Nobel Prize in physics for his resonance method or radiofrequency spectroscopy. Rabi was one of nine scientists--mostly physicists—who played a role in the development of the MRI, a machine that can scan the brain at a distance, although with huge magnets nearby. Conclusions The limited physics research in neuroscience is striking in light of the fact that brain electricity is one of two major areas of study essential to understanding the electrochemical brain. Even a basic understanding of the brain’s electrical system requires much more than the limited study of neuroscience today with its focus on the neuron doctrine, ionic currents and action potentials, and the connectionist model. Also relevant, in unclassified neuroscience research, non-remote technologies to access the brain have been limited to the brain implant, the EEG and scanning machines such as the MRI. Physics of the brain requires the study how the brain conveys and integrates information that results in human behavior; it requires the study of interactions of electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism in the brain, including in individual brain cells and groups and systems of cells. It requires measuring and studying how the brain communicates via direct currents, semiconducting electricity and EMR and magnetic waves of the brain. The importance of biophysics to the study of the brain was well known in the 1950s; nevertheless, for over half a century, neuroscience has completely ignored this area of physics. In particular, the brain as an electrical system has been scientifically established although not definitively proven or accepted in mainstream neuroscience. It sounds absolutely impossible. How could so many have been misguided by neuroscience and the physics of neuroweapons for so long? As the saying goes, "If the only tool you have is a hammer, you will see every problem as a nail." Likewise, since the 1950s, prominent experts have overlooked obscure but critical information and thus have remained absolutely convinced that the science of mind control is science fiction. Today this unwavering consensus remains firmly in place. However the converging facts support that the science of neuroweapons has been possible since the 1950s. For these reasons, secret US neuroweapons are more likely than not successfully developed. Further research and investigation is called for.

New October 2012 Torture, Asian and Global Perspectives Magazine, Volume 01 Number 04 to publish Essay: Modern Day Torture: Mind Control Targeting: Science Fiction or Hi Tech Torture? by Cheryl Welsh.



See Torture: Asian and Global Perspectives A special thanks to Ed Sacchette for referring me to Torture Magazine which resulted in the publishing of this article. Click here for Mindjustice.org copy. Not for reposting.



For the first time, the Torture Magazine essay presents an outline of the neuroscience behind mind control, now called neuroweapons. It turns out that the history of neuroscience is revealing significant new evidence that such weapons may already be developed. Just one example of many illustrates the point. Experts agree that understanding, communicating and controlling the brain is a futuristic capability that has some similarities with a radio receiver which can transmit and receive radio waves. To develop neuroweapons with such capabilities requires information age science of semiconductors, solid state physics and bioelectronics, which is the application of electronics science to biology--including the brain. Information age science took off in the 1940s and led to science discoveries such as transistor radios, computers, "human transistors" and much more. Notably, the bioelectronics and "human transistors" research has been extended and has never been disproven. Nevertheless, this promising area of research remains obscure and at a rudimentary level of development. With a look back, two newspaper articles now illustrate some of the reasons why.



First, the New York Post-Standard Sunday Magazine, June 30, 1963 newspaper reported on the start of the promising career of Robert O. Becker, a bioelectronics researcher. Moreover, according to a 1985 BBC documentary and a 2010 book, the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) considered Becker's bioelectronics research to be reliable enough to depend on for national security purposes. In the 1960's, the CIA consulted with Becker about the possible use of Soviet bioelectronic weapons on U.S. figher pilots shot down over the former U.S.S.R. Nevertheless, almost 20 years later, the Syracuse Herald-American, February 15, 1981 newspaper reported that Becker's career had been "short-circuited by the establishment." Becker stated that his research was being derailed by several U.S. government interests because he spoke out publicly about possible health risks of related technologies. Furthermore, in the following 10 years, Becker went public by writing two books that described the U.S. national security establishment and its controlling interest and monopoly over this area of research since at least the 1960s.



In the 1974 academic journal article cited below, Becker wrote: "In summary, it is proposed that all organisms presently exitant have hybrid data transmission and control systems. That the basic system consisting of the glia, satellite, SCHWANN continuum is an analog type handling data as a slowly varying d.c. potential generated and transmitted by an integral semiconducting or other solid state property. . . . It is particularly interesting to note that during the period of the maximum growth of computer technology and the development of cybernetics that one of the foremost scientists in this field, John Von Neumann, predicted on logical and mathematical grounds that such a hybridization of data transmission and control functions must exist in the biological world." It is true that promising theories about bioelectricity and the brain, including Becker's, have yet to complete the rigorous scientific process for definitive proof, however significant facts support that U.S. government interests have caused this obscure but critical area of science research to remain undeveloped while at the same time the comparable secret U.S. research could be advanced. Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in research on D.C. currents of the brain, glia as an overlooked brain communication system and analog as well as digital brain communication systems.

Coming in 2012-2013 Winter Season on History/Discovery Channel: Star Trek's Captain Kirk, William Shatner, narrates the TV program "Weird or What?" See http://www.history.ca/ontv/titledetails.aspx?titleid=255461 The last episode of the season will feature Cheryl Welsh discussing electromagnetic radiation (EMR) mind control technologies and her experience of remote advance EMR mind control targeting: "I never would have believed such advanced mind control technologies could exist if it hadn't happened to me personally. If it can happen to an ordinary person such as myself, it can happen to anyone. The targeting continues to this day only less so, but it is something you never get used to. I hope I can warn people about what it is like to be targeted and what amazing but horrific mind control technologies I experienced. What is new is that after 20 years of targeting and research, I think I've found the scientific basis for these weapons: bioelectromagnetics. That's the line of research that is essential for developing the most advanced remote EMR mind control weapons and that remains completely classified and missing from mainstream neuroscience research, even today. It's bizarre how this fact has remained out of view of most brain researchers for decades--thanks to the amazing power of U.S. secrecy methods and scientific dogma. However, finally the importance of such facts are emerging and are a part of the new evidence of secret mind control weapons. See Essex Human Rights Review on Mind Justice website for details.

The 2009 book Neuro Revolution: How Brain Science is Changing Our World by Zack Lynch cites Mind Justice. This book is a great overview of the growing relevance of brain science today. Page 177 on neurowarfare: "Extreme stories and wildy paranoid suppositions about such weapons are frequently posted on the Web site of Mind Justice . . . [Jonathan] Moreno believes that the various neuroweapons already developed, and those on the horizon, would never be operated within our society, but only against enemy combatants. But he qualifies that belief as being just one guy's opinion, and adds that it may be human nature, at least for most of us, to want to deny that potential negatives may be looming. "We already operate in comfortable self-denial," he says, "regarding how much is already known and shared about us from our credit card usage, Internet clicks, and so on. So it is not hard to understand why there are so many paranoiac ideas in circulation, even among articulate, educated and highly qualified people." . . . He has had several conversations with Cheryl Welsh, director of Mind Justice. Once he asked if there was any evidence he could present that might prove to her that she was wrong. Her response: "There isn't any way." See http://brainwaves.corante.com/archives/2009/08/18/wonderful_review_of_the_neuro_revolution_in_cerebrum.php

Tek Nath Rizal's 2009 Book Torture, Killing Me Softly Delivers the Coup de Grace

by Cheryl Welsh, Director, Mindjustice.org

December 2009



The 2009 book Torture, Killing Me Softly by Tek Nath Rizal alleges government mind control torture with secret electromagnetic radiation (EMR) mind control weapons. Tek Nath Rizal was a prominent government consultant to the South Asian country of Bhutan, before he exposed corruption in high places. He became a popular political figure and internationally recognized human rights activist. His book is about his experience of several years of imprisonment in Bhutan with an emphasis on the EMR mind control torture. The U.S. Department of State and Amnesty International regarded Rizal as a political prisoner and won his release from prison. Rizal has written several books, some of which included his accounts of mind control torture. The books have been very successful in Southern Asia.



Against all odds, he published this book, Torture, Killing Me Softly. Mindjustice.org extends our deepest thanks for his great effort and sacrifice. I highly recommend this well written, concise and ground breaking book. For the first time, a variety of medical, government and military professionals publicly acknowledge secret EMR mind control weapons for interrogation and torture in prisons and on POWs, prisoners of war.



More Information, including links to reviews by Cheryl Welsh, and news services. February 2011 update. Torture, Killing Me Softly has been re-released. This is the compelling story of the Bhutanese refugee movement and also mind control by its leader, Tek Nath Rizal. This edition includes an endorsement of the book by mindjustice.org. Now available, free download . See: teknathrizal.com The new edition of Torture, Killing Me Softly was edited by journalist Deepak Adhikari. Time magazine published an article on Nepal by Adhikari on January 26, 2011. See: deepakadhikari.net

January, 2008 Los Angeles Times obituary for Walter Bowart, a giant in mind control activism. Walter was someone who genuinely cared about the human race and especially those targeted with mind control. Then he did something about it. Working with Walter as a founding director of Freedom of Thought Foundation was an honor for me. While thwarted and targeted himself, he perservered and broke new ground for mind control activism. He started the first ever mind control human rights group and newsletter in the early 1990s. He did more research and published a new version of Operation Mind Control. I will remember Walter for his understanding when almost the whole world did not.
