Dr. Al Overholt, quoting from THE CALIFORNIA SUN
by Herb Dorsey, Feb. 1997
Dr. Jose Delgado was hired by the CIA to do experimentation with
miniaturized electronic implants. In a speech recorded in the February
24, 1974 edition of the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD No. 26, Vol. 118, Dr.
Delgado had this to say: "We need a program of psychosurgery for
political control of our society.
The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates
from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. "The individual may
think that the most important reality is his own existence, but this is
only his personal point of view. This lacks historical perspective. "Man
does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal
orientation has great appeal. We must electrically control the brain.
Someday, armies and generals will be controlled by electric stimulation
of the brain".
The uninformed may think this sounds like science fiction but in the
May 17, 1965 issue of the NEW YORK TIMES, Dr. Delgado had reportedly
successfully connected electronic implants to the motor nervous system
of a bull and could stop the charging bull in its tracks by radio
control. In another report Dr. Delgado had surgically implanted a cat
with an electronic implant which could transmit everything the cat was
seeing and hearing to a nearby TV monitor. Who would ever suspect the
cat was a "surveillance bug"?
Well, considering the tremendous advances in large scale integrated
circuits, electronic implants have come a long way since the sixties.
Some electronic implants are smaller than a grain of rice and can be
injected into the subject via a hypodermic needle. A recent law was
passed in Los Angeles that any lost pets picked up by the pound had to
be injected with a telemetry implant before being released.
These telemetry implants are electromagnetically connected to the
Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) system so that if the pet is ever
lost again they can be immediately located by GPS monitors.
Similar implants can now placed into newborn children at many
hospitals. The selling point to the parents is that the children can be
easily located if they ever become lost.
Ronald Kane, Vice President of CUBIC Corp., a major manufacturer of
implantable chips, while remarking on the chips profitability, has said,
"If we had our way, we'd implant a chip behind everyone's ear in the
maternity ward".
Similarly some Desert Storm troops may have been implanted with
telemetry chips so that their positions could be located on the field of
battle to assist in rescue operations and minimize "friendly fire"
casualties.
THE I.B.M. 2020 NEURAL IMPLANT
But, in view of the early work of Dr. Delgado for the CIA, the
question remains what else might these electronic implants be capable of
doing? Some idea might be gained from excerpts of a confidential memo
covertly obtained in October, 1995 from: INTELLI-CONNECTION, a Security
Division of IBM, 1200 Progress Way, Armonk, New York 11204:
"CONFIDENTIAL, LIMITED DISTRIBUTION ONLY, LEVEL 9 COMMUNICATION, 2020
NEURAL CHIP IMPLANT.............."Federal regulations do not yet permit
testing of implants on prisoners, but we have entered into contractual
testing of our product. We have also had major successes in privately
owned sanitariums with implant technology.........In California, several
prisoners were identified as members of a security threat group, EME, or
Mexican Mafia.
They were brought to the health services unit at Pelican Bay and
tranquilized with advanced sedatives developed by our Cambridge,
Massachussetts laboratories.
"The implant procedure takes about 60-90 minutes depending on the
experience of the technician. We are working on a device that will
reduce that time by as much as 60%. The results of implants on 8
prisoners yielded the following:
"Implants served as surveillance monitoring devices for threat group
activity. Implants disabled two subjects during an assault on
correctional staff. Universal side effects in all 8 test subjects
revealed that when the implant was set to 116 Mhz all subjects became
lethargic and slept an average of 18-22 hours per day. All subjects
refused recreation periods for 14 days during the 116 Mhz test
evaluation.....
"Each subject was monitored for aggressive activity during the test
period and the findings are conclusive that 7 out of 8 test subjects
exhibited no aggression, even when provoked. Each subject experienced
only minor bleeding from the nose and ears 48 hours after the implant
due to initial adjustment.
Each subject had no knowledge of the implant for the test period and
each implant was retrieved under the guise of medical treatment. The
security windfall from the brief test period was tremendous. Security
officals now know several strategies employed by the EME that facilitate
the transmission of illegal drugs and weapons into their correctional
facilities.....In Massachussetts, the Department of Corrections had
already entered into high level discussions about releasing certain
offenders to the community with the 2020 neural chip implants".
