Wow. Another source speaks of the 100 year war on America by the CCP. What they are doing is right in alignment with tactics in this book. It's being delivered in new ways, but the same evil intents. Very good read! I will be watching even more closely after reading this work.

The 20th Century and the first two decades of the 21st Century is a study in the development, sophistication and effectiveness of menticide or the destruction of the mind. We live in the black fog of lies, we live lies. We are daily being subjected to intensive mind and behavior control to the hurt and the destruction of our soul or person hood and to it we are largely oblivious. This book can be the beginning of our personal emancipation and societal awakening, a breaking of the mental shackles that have made us truly the living, walking dead. The book consists of exit interviews of Korean War prisoners who were subjected to such horrors and were either broken by them or survived them and how. This is a gripping read and leaves the reader better armed against the scourge that modern governments employ against their citizens and subjects.

The Democrat Party and Islam explained. Normal, healthy cultures seek to help damaged brains heal. Malicious cultures or people seek to harm the brain of healthy people.

Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2009
I found this book to be excellent. I learned a lot about human psychology, animal psychology, social engineering, brainwashing, and those sorts of things. Some deranged and demented people on this planet have definitely been studying brainwashing to the degree of making it into a concrete science. Very disturbing. If it were just fiction like a horror movie then it wouldn't be so bad. It's very grim on the horizon to look out at the world and see that these techniques have been applied on such a mass scale, though I am improved to a degree from learning about them. By learning about these things we can (much) better guard ourselves against them. Those who are depressed might consider reading the first few pages to see if they feel better or worse from it, are still afloat and what-not, and either put it on hold until later or read on.

One thing though, I don't see why anyone would ever consider giving this book a try unless they were already educated about the NWO, eugenics, social engineering, etc. at least to some thorough level of degree. And if you are, then you might benefit from reading this book as you wont be so skeptical that it clouds your vision and experience. But after that I think it's best to move on as we shouldn't stay stuck looking at these things for too lengthy a time. As someone once said, "How do you disempower a corrupt system? By empowering yourself. How do you awaken a sleeping population? By awakening yourself. How do you heal a toxic society? By healing yourself. The Illuminist labyrinth of conspiracy, black-ops and corporate corruption is a thing, a thing of low vibration. A time-loop of unconsciousness. Not somewhere to dwell in the long term. Giving enduring focus to it will eventually leave you resonating at the same super low levels and it will be a major feat to shake them off. The blade becomes blunt, the vitality fades. Live in Mordor too long and you come out looking like Gollum. Go in, do the reconnaissance and get out." I think this is a very wise perspective to take on the matter.

Dramatic and first hand accounts from Korean War veterans who survived P.O.W. camps and Communist attempts to brainwash them. Basically, the Communists were trying to recruit American soldiers for various propaganda purposes, which often involved deceiving their own people. The techniques employed appear to be simple. However, this does not prevent them from taking a toll on their targets. Nowadays, these same tactics are employed as "public relations" and "marketing." Only, they don't make you stand outside in the winter time, while they pour buckets of cold water on your head. However, the level of saturation experienced by these soldiers is comparable to what a child attending public schools, watching t.v. (average 3.25 hours per day), cruising the net, viewing magazines and listening to music will experience growing up. Not surprisingly, the hours of saturation in adulthood taper off in some areas, while increasing in others.

Ultimately, "brainwashing" is combatted with truth and integrity.

Example: Me and my buddies want to deceive you, but you know our message is wrong. So, we tell you the message over and over, we surround you and tell you we believe the message, we entice you with rewards for listening/accepting and we threaten you with punishment if you don't believe us (for example: we'll turn everyone against you). Naturally, we lack credibility. However, we are intimidating. As time goes on, people sell out to us. Eventually, we don't (if we ever did) resort to violence as often, because we can control things like social approval and access to resources. As people sell out to us, we grow stronger. Of course, the things that we influence, we debauch. So ultimately, we (us and our sell outs) are weak.
