seems it wasnt only the american agencies that have been playing with this type of inteligence gathering?

Wouldnt surprise me. After all, we had our own psychic spooks spying on their leaders, bases, and activities. Hell it was their dabbling into psychic research that kickstarted our programs. I do believe it works.
