Concerned
about rumors of communist brainwashing of POWs during the Korean war, in April
1953 CIA Director Allen Dulles authorized the MKULTRA program, which would later
become notorious for the unusual and sometimes inhumane tests that the CIA
financed. Reviewing the experiments five years later, one secrecy-conscious CIA
auditor wrote: "Precautions must be taken not only to protect operations from
exposure to enemy forces but also to conceal these activities from the American
public in general. Though many of the documents related to MKULTRA were
destroyed by the CIA in 1972, some records relating to the program have made it
into the public domain, and the work of historians, investigative reporters, and
various congressional committees has resulted in the release of enough
information to make MKULTRA one of the most disturbing instances of intelligence
community abuse on record.

Rebuilding America's Defenses (RAD) is a
policy document published by a neoconservative Washington think tank called the
Project for the New American Century (PNAC). Its pages have been compared to
Hitler's Mein Kampf in that they outline an aggressive military plan for
U.S. world domination during the coming century. And just as Hitler's book was
not taken seriously until after his catastrophic rise to power, so it seems that
relatively few Americans are expressing alarm at this published document that is
a blueprint for many of the present actions of the Bush administration, actions
which have begun to destabilize the balance of power between the nations of the
world. There is, indeed, much reason for alarm because PNAC is not an ordinary think tank and "RAD" is not an ordinary policy paper. Many PNAC members now hold key positions in the White House, Defense and State Departments, among them Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Elliot Abrams, Lewis Libby, and John Bolton, along with others in lesser positions. William Kristol, writer for the conservative magazine, the Weekly Standard, is chairman of the group. |
