Wow. Just wow.
I found
this paper on the evolution of CYOPSin the
electronic age, as was highlighted in the Israeli/Hezbollah war, and the new tactics that are being used, some which are "theorhetical" (yeah,
right), are jaw-dropping.
Some of the more interesting CYOPS programs are updating the traditional battlefield loudspeaker psychological messages with ones that can only be
heard in a frequency that anyone over the age of 30 is unable to hear!
Or even more interesting is the "psycho viruses" program by the Russians in the 1990s:
The Russians have been leaders in this category.
Analyst S. P. Rastorguyev, for example, began writing openly about this subject in the 1990s at the behest of the Russian Security Council. His task
was to develop algorithms that would put suggestive influences into human heads via words or sound. These influences were known as “psycho
viruses.”
Other writers, both in China and Russia, have discussed putting frequencies into computer programs or conducting other activities that would affect
the “headware” (neurons) of a user. In the journal Contemporary Navy, the Chinese described efforts at conducting mind control, using telepathy,
and using secondary sound waves in the 3-17 Hz
range, that allegedly shut down a human’s ability to function. This article also described use of blinding lasers, weapons of sound, holograms, and
“camouflage by transfiguration.” Elements of this type of CYOP (especially the use of a sound wave weapon) would be instantly debilitating. They
would challenge your ability to continue functioning as
a human.
Using telepathy?! Wow!
Also, and here's the implications for Abovetopsecret.com, the report has a picture of a soldier who apparently -- as part of his duty -- is writing a
blog for CYOPS.
