Some Sidney Gottlieb remarks about the DoD/CIA project MK OFTEN: "explore the world of black magic"

"harness the forces of darkness and challenge the concept that the inner reaches of the mind are beyond reach".

Heinrich Himmler certainly did just that. So did some of the SS veterans that were magically changed into Americans in the alchemy of Operation PAPERCLIP.

"Black magic" all cultures have some of that-yet there aren't too many cultures that combined it with things like quantum mechanics, nuclear physics, genetic modification/cloning, space exploration etc.

That's what this post will attempt to do-to link the occultic belief systems of The Thule Society that were part of the NAZI Party leadership and its policies to what US intelligence covert endeavors like MK OFTEN yielded.

DUers that share some of these beliefs as part of their religious freedom/freedom from religion should not take offense-this is just me expressing some thoughts about hidden history.

Moderators take note that some of the hyperlinks will be weird to general readers-the purpose is to inform how the US intelligence community interacted with and was influenced by Operation PAPERCLIP.

The balance of this post will be background links related to Sid Gottlieb's remarks concerning MK OFTEN.

That's just a fraction of what MK OFTEN explored imho.
