isolation gang stalkingLong-term victims of directed energy weapons testing/torture and community policing based gang-stalking will find that over time they begin to put up emotional barriers. They draw away from long-time friends and relatives. They become overly suspicious. As isolation deepens, victims of psychological attacks are easily overwhelmed by paranoia, bitterness, anger and frustration that leads to self-destructive thinking and behavior.

Manifestly, something happens to the reasoning processes of a person who is isolated by choice or by force of circumstances. He thinks too much about himself, giving in to self-pity. He becomes critical and suspicious of others and overemphasizes their failures toward him, sometimes attributing bad motives. He waits for others to be friendly and feels they have failed him if they are not. As a result, he makes it difficult for those who are genuinely concerned to draw close to him. As their efforts to express concern are criticized, repelled, or ignored, they eventually stop trying. The victim eventually poisons the healthy relationships that are necessary for good mental health.

As a result, it is vital for victims of psychological attacks not to isolate themselves! Rather than pitying himself, waiting for others to do something, expecting to receive, he should take the initiative in actively expressing love for others. Work at it! Be the sort of friend you want others to be. Look for ways to give to others, to bring happiness into their lives. And, take the initiative to do so!

Of course, it takes effort to become active in sharing with others, not allowing oneself to become discouraged because of feeling ashamed or inadaquate. Since it is not easy to overcome isolation, we do well to avoid becoming a victim of this malady. Hence, even though others may disappoint us, we need to guard against drawing away from people. The Bible says: “No one of us lives . . . for himself alone.” (Rom. 14:7, The New English Bible) Once a person isolates himself, he is in danger of thinking unwisely, even foolishly, to his injury. That is exactly what the torturer and gang stalker intends. Psychological attacks can be successfully defended against if you do not isolate yourself!

“The United States government did something that was wrong — deeply, profoundly, morally wrong. It was an outrage to our commitment to integrity and equality for all our citizens . . . clearly racist.” - President Clinton’s apology for the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment to the eight remaining survivors, May 16, 1997

For forty years between 1932 and 1972, the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) conducted an experiment on 399 black men in the late stages of syphilis. These men, for the most part illiterate sharecroppers from one of the poorest counties in Alabama, were never told what disease they were suffering from or of its seriousness. Informed that they were being treated for “bad blood,” their doctors had no intention of curing them of syphilis at all. The data for the experiment was to be collected from autopsies of the men, and they were thus deliberately left to degenerate under the ravages of tertiary syphilis—which can include tumors, heart disease, paralysis, blindness, insanity, and death. “As I see it,” one of the doctors involved explained, “we have no further interest in these patients until they die.”

President Clinton, further commenting on the hubris of science gone wrong in the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, stated that “We must never go back to those awful days in modern disguise.”2 Do you agree? What if you learned that the degenerative, premature death of your husband or brother was due to the deliberate, long-term denial of medical services by the same government agency? How would it affect you?

Hubris is an exaggerated sense of self-esteem; the distorted belief in ones own superiority (or that of ones’ group, race or class). However, the degree of arrogance that hubris describes makes one capable of cruelty against those viewed as inferior. It was clearly evident in the twentieth century genocides in Bosnia and Rwanda, the Holocaust in Germany, and the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment in the United States. I found the Tuskegee Experiment a particularly compelling example of hubris with a number of parallels to incidents of directed energy weapons torture and psychological abuse by covert federal agencies and local community policing groups.

1. We see evidence that an entire government agency can be characterized by hubris that leads to human rights abuses.

“Who could imagine the government, all the way up to the Surgeon General of the United States, deliberately allowing a group of its citizens to die from a terrible disease for the sake of an ill-conceived experiment?“ 4 asks Borgna Brunner of the Tuskegee Institute. “By the end of the experiment, 28 of the men had died directly of syphilis, 100 were dead of related complications, 40 of their wives had been infected, and 19 of their children had been born with congenital syphilis.”

The U.S. Public Health Service (now known as the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services) as an organization supported the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment. The Surgeon General of the United States participated in enticing the men to remain in the experiment, sending them certificates of appreciation after 25 years in the study. Keeping the experiment going for forty years required a well coordinated effort of deceit and manipulation by doctors, nurses, and health officials. “One of the most chilling aspects of the experiment was how zealously the PHS kept these men from receiving treatment. When several nationwide campaigns to eradicate venereal disease came to Macon County, the men were prevented from participating. Even when penicillin —the first real cure for syphilis— was discovered in the 1940s, the Tuskegee men were deliberately denied the medication.” 4

When a whistle-blower brought the story to public attention, the PHS remained unrepentant. An Alabama state health officer who had been involved claimed “somebody is trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.” “The PHS did not accept the media’s comparison of Tuskegee with the appalling experiments performed by Nazi doctors on their Jewish victims during World War II. Yet, in addition to the medical and racist parallels, the PHS offered the same morally bankrupt defense offered at the Nuremberg trials: they claimed they were just carrying out orders, mere cogs in the wheel of the PHS bureaucracy, exempt from personal responsibility.”

I see similar patterns in the abuses I have endured. This pattern of abuse cannot be carried out successfully without training, support, coordination and financing provided at an organizational level. It requires the coordination of several agencies, at the Federal and local level. This strongly suggests a wider campaign of abuses, I am only one of many victims. And, as with the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, there is a clear element of medical experimentation in the use of covert technologies. Additionally, the abuses are carried out in a way that denies the victim the ability to seek legal recourse.

A person (or organization) infected with hubris enjoys the denigration of others.He enjoys hurting someone in a cold, impersonal way and then gloats over the other person’s discomfort and ignominy. This is a noteworthy characteristic of many individuals who play a role in my abuse. I discern that the process of abuse provides them more satisfaction than any eventual goal the abuse is intended to reach.

2. Anyone Can be Induced by Hubris To Become A Human Rights Abuser.

It is too simplistic to explain The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment as a case of extreme white racism. “The experiment’s name comes from the Tuskegee Institute, the black university founded by Booker T. Washington. Its affiliated hospital lent the PHS its medical facilities for the study, and other predominantly black institutions as well as local black doctors also participated. A black nurse, Eunice Rivers, was a central figure in the experiment for most of its forty years.” 4 What induced these Black Americans, with the horrors of segregation and Jim Crow still a part of their life experience, to join in this crime against other Black Americans? What motivated Black educational institutions to become part of this crime? It was hubris. “The promise of recognition by a prestigious government agency may have obscured the troubling aspects of the study for some. A (Black American) Tuskegee doctor, for example, praised “the educational advantages offered our interns and nurses as well as the added standing it will give the hospital.” Nurse Rivers explained her role as one of passive obedience: “we were taught that we never diagnosed, we never prescribed; we followed the doctor’s instructions!” 4

Clearly, the Black doctors and nurses were seduced by the enhanced status and careers they would enjoy by participating in the Tuskegee Experiment. Gaining the praise and recognition of a prestigious government agency was part of the seduction. They too, felt superior to the common Black sharecroppers whose lives they condemned to a torturous death. It was not difficult for their feelings of superiority to attain the level of hubris: “mingled pride and cruelty . . . the arrogant contempt which makes [a man] trample on the hearts of his fellow men.” 2

Hubris perverts justice, cripples sound judgment, and weakens strength of character. From weakened character rises the remorseless intellect. This intellect gives license to barbaric abuses that insult all humanity. President Clinton, further commenting on the Tuskegee Experiment, stated that “the people who ran the study at Tuskegee diminished the stature of man by abandoning the most basic ethical precepts.” Indeed, we derogate all men by the continued acts of hubris in the form of directed energy weapons and psychological torture.

Do Not Envy the Remorseless

Some may be inclined to admire those who possess the authority and willingness to cruelly manipulate and control the lives of others. Do not envy them. They pay a high price for their excesses. Much like a man whose loses the ability to taste food, the remorseless become dulled as to what makes life most meaningful and satisfying. It is our striving to love and work for the better good of fellowmen that gives life meaning and purpose. When stripped of that capacity, life becomes tasteless, flat, joyless, and a meaningless quest for selfish pursuits. Eventually, the remorseless infect their family, friendships, and all social interactions with their merciless spirit. They begin to view everyone as exploitable, expendable, and cheap. I strongly suspect (based upon a decade of observing such individuals) that the dysfunctional results of remorselessness manifests itself in higher rates of divorce, mental illness, depression, suicide, alcohol and substance abuse. Do not envy them. Sooner or later, they will “reap what they sow.”

“Do not be misled: God is not one to be mocked. For whatever a man is sowing, this he will also reap . . .”—Galations 6:7

Superheros and Gang Stalking

Is there a connection? Or, is it merely a coincidence? As the pattern of directed energy weapons torture and community policing based gang-stalking takes on national proportions, so does another phenomenon: Hollywood’s releasing of a torrent of comic-book based “superhero” movies. What connection can there be between these two trends?

First, lets look at what these two trends hold in common; they both glorify vigilante violence. Gang-stalking, as practiced by community policing groups, is a form of state-sponsored vigilantism designed to isolate and destroy individuals targeted as victims by covert government agencies. What does this have in common with every comic-book superhero ever created? “The implied policy message in comic books is one of vigilantism, in which moral justice trumps legitimate criminal procedure.” —Cultural criminology and kryptonite: Apocalyptic and retributive constructions of crime and justice in comic books. This book (source of the aforementioned quote), written by two leading criminology experts from St. Francis College, and John Jay College of Criminal Justice (USA), explores the concept of vigilante justice and retribution by comic book heroes.

Comic books and community policing based psychological terror campaigns have the same core theme: Vigilante justice is the preferred way to restore the role of law in a community. However, the irony of real-world gang-stalking is that it is being developed as a tool of covert federal agencies. In this, we also see a precedent in comic books. Isn’t it true that comic books have long promoted the clandestine relationship between government and the “bad boy violence” of superheros? That is, as long as superhero violence benefits those in power.

Is it merely a coincidence that a barrage of superhero movies are being released concurrently with numerous complaints of injustice stemming from covert agency sponsored psychological terror campaigns supported by community policing groups? USA Today, in the article “Hollywood, Pentagon Share Rich Past (3/07/05) states: “The FBI created its entertainment office in the 1930s, around the time James Cagney played a fearless FBI agent in the 1935 movie ‘G’ Men. The agency “realized a lot of people were getting their information from popular culture” and wanted to ensure agents were portrayed accurately. . .” The article further notes that the Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, and the CIA all have Hollywood liaison offices. These offices exist to promote movies that provide a favorable view of the respective government agencies and their agendas. Can Hollywood be used to subtly promote a favorable view of government-sponsored covert extralegal vigilantism occurring in our communities?

I have often observed a fondness for the iconographic symbols of superheros by many individuals who engage in gang-stalking in my community. Often, the younger participants will have their vehicles emblazoned with the logos of Batman, Superman and other comic book characters. In fact, one participant would often wear a superman t-shirt under his postal uniform. Another, in Newark, NJ, had his vehicle customized to resemble the Batmobile.

How may the seemingly endless string of comic book based movies benefit government agencies developing national psychological (psyops) operations that include directed energy weapons and community policing based gang-stalking? Well, think of the appeal in the opportunity to be a “superhero” in the local community, supporting the “good guys” by operating outside the law with their covert protection and approval? Modern movies can exert a powerful influence the thinking and attitudes of the common man in this regard.

I would be remiss if i did not mention one departure from the classic model of superhero violence in my experience. In comic books, the hero usually wreaks his violence upon a conscious victim. Not so with directed energy weapons used by covert Federal agencies. With remote technology employed from a nearby apartment or home, the “hero” beats his victim even as he sleeps; using the silent blunt force of infrasound through-the-wall weapons, and the nerve damaging effects of targeted microwaves.

Again, I ask. Is there a connection? The warped justice of comic books is coming to our communities in the form of federally sponsored psyops (psychological operations). These operations trample true justice by targeting and terrorizing individuals without due process of law. Many victims are being used as involuntary test subjects for cruel new technologies. Others may be whistle-blowers or targets of vendettas. The innocent are being abused. Whether the connection to superhero propaganda is intentional or coincidental, there is no question that we are on the threshold of a cruel new age of real-world comic book violence.

Practical Considerations and Modern Trends

Are the constant stream of superhero movies that glorify vigilante justice for the “greater good” a form of propaganda preparing the nation for martial law and the suspension of constitutional rights? Serious students of current events are aware of the enormous powers granted the President and Federal agencies such as FEMA during a catastrophic national event. As an insightful article by the Air Force Law Review (The Imposition of Martial Law, Spring, 2000) indicates, the military would play a dominant role in civilian affairs that citizens may resist. The challenge is to suppress any “traditional prejudice against military involvement in civil affairs.” In a speech by Congressman Jim McDermott before the House of Representatives on Martial Law Concerns, he stated that “FEMA has practiced” for the possibility of martial law and large scale internment camps in the United States.

It may well be that the harassment that innocent victims of directed energy weapons and community policing “gang-stalking” are experiencing are federally sponsored covert training routines for this murky scenario. We may be the early victims in a paradigm shift in the way our government treats its citizens. In my experience, after more than ten years of such persecution, this has little to do with traditional law enforcement. The military origins of these routines become more obvious with time. Something is “brewing.” I cannot say for certain what the true motives behind these attacks are. However, what I am certain of is my response. I will uphold superior Godly principles in my dealings with my fellowman and refuse to be swept into the cesspool of intrigue and violence that surrounds me.

“The children of God and the children of the Devil are evident by this fact: Everyone who does not carry on righteousness does not originate with God, neither does he who does not love his brother. For this is the message which YOU have heard from [the] beginning, that we should have love for one another; not like Cain, who originated with the wicked one and slaughtered his brother. And for the sake of what did he slaughter him? Because his own works were wicked, but those of his brother [were] righteous.” - 1 John 3:10-12

When considering the recent abuses attributed to the covert use of directed energy weapons by government agencies and community policing based gang-stalking and psychological terror tactics, we need to see the “bigger picture.” They are simply manifestations of larger trends in modern society.

Nobel Prize winning author Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn said that if asked to identify in a few words the principal trait of the 20th century, he would say: “Men have forgotten God.” He continued: “The entire twentieth century is being sucked into the vortex of atheism and self-destruction. . . . All attempts to find a way out of the plight of today’s world are fruitless unless we redirect our consciousness, in repentance, to the Creator of all: without this, no exit will be illumined, and we shall seek it in vain.”

“Men have forgotten God.” Do you agree with that observation? As men lose interest in God, families disintegrate, concern for our fellow man is replaced by overarching selfishness. Ignorance and cruelty replace tolerance and reason.

Former Justice Francis T. Murphy of the Appellate Division says that modern man “does not know the ultimate meaning of his life and doubts that life has any meaning. Whatever his moral pretensions may be, he has in fact driven God out of his life, out of his office, out of his home. He therefore lacks a moral center.”

Life has no meaning. Man lacks a moral center. When our lives lose meaning, they lose value. In turn, we devalue, or cheapen the lives of others. A declining morality means that cruelty, prejudice, and fear become the dominant attitudes driving our view and treatment of others. In this context, it is not surprising that such trends are increasingly being reflected in the actions of governments, businesses and local communities. Although a pretense of morality (or belief in God) is held by many, we are being sucked into “the vortex of atheism and self-destruction” as Solzhenitsyn keenly observed.

As a result, I am not surprised by the cruelty that surrounds me in the form of directed energy weapons torture by government agencies and psychological terror campaigns by community policing groups. It reflects the cheapness and depravity of life in our modern times. It is a natural byproduct of our rapidly declining values.

“Violence and oppression are before me; strife and contention keep on rising. In the presence of this, the law is slack and justice is not at all applied; for the wicked encircle the righteous, hence justice goes forth perverted.”—Habakkuk. 1:3, 4, “The New Berkeley Version. (Holy Bible)”

I have found that coping with daily attacks by directed energy weapons and community policing based gang-stalking cannot be left to chance. One of the best coping mechanisms I employ is personal Bible study. It provides a rich trove of good examples that furnish lessons I can apply to my situation.

One recent personal study session revealed a sterling quality of Jesus Christ that I seek to imitate in dealing with others. In Jesus’ day, people who lived in Judea and Galilee generally had “no dealings with Samaritans,” their closest neighbors (and distant relatives). (John 4:9) A saying recorded in the Talmud no doubt expressed the feeling of many Jews: “May I never set eyes on a Samaritan.” The Mishnah even included this rule: “Cattle may not be left in the inns of the gentiles (non-Jews) since they are suspected of bestiality.” Such blanket prejudice against all non-Jews was unjust and quite contrary to the spirit of the Mosaic Law. (Leviticus 19:34) Other man-made rules demeaned women. The oral law said that a wife should walk behind, not beside, her husband. A man was warned against conversing with a woman in public, even his own wife. Like slaves, women were not allowed to offer testimony in court. There was even a formal prayer in which men thanked God that they were not women.

Although raised in Galilee, Jesus rejected all such prejudices of his contemporaries. For example, he willingly engaged a Samaritan woman in public conversation, providing encouragement that blessed her and her family. (John 4:1-15) When a Gentile (Roman) army officer pleaded for his aid, he kindly responded. (Matthew 8:5-13) Jewish tax collectors were hated and shunned by their fellow countrymen. Jesus, however, was willing to help them, in spite of being criticized for doing so. (Matthew 9:9-13) In so many ways, he provides a wonderful example for us. He refused to allow the prejudices and stereotypes held by his contemporaries to affect how he treated others. Even when he was impaled and about to die as the result of an outrageous act of injustice, he consoled the condemned criminal impaled next to him with a promise of future restoration.

Jesus example in this regard teaches me how to treat my fellowman. Our modern society is also afflicted with deeply held prejudices, suspicions, and hatred of strangers. Such attitudes often lead to cruel actions. No doubt, this pervasive spirit contributes to the growth of community policing based “gang stalking” and related forms of state-sponsored bullying. Yet, in this climate, as a Christian, I must be like Jesus; refusing to allow the prejudices and cruel attitudes of others to shape how I treat neighbors and strangers. As Christ did, I must treat others in a way that demonstrates Godly qualities of love, kindness and mercy. This holds true in spite of the fact that some among my neighbors actively support the psychological war waged against me. In responding to their actions, I must be motivated by nobler qualities, not the weaknesses of my antagonists. In this way I imitate the Christ, Not only is it the right thing to do, it is also the wisest.

Practical Benefits of Treating Others With Kindness

When a person is victimized by a group (as is the case with gang-stalking) paranoia and a general distrust of others often develops as a result. The victim isolates himself emotionally and may frequently misidentify innocent individuals as participants in the psychological attacks against him. However, doing good to others requires overriding feelings of mistrust and acting in the best interests of others. This provides three key benefits:

1. You maintain and develop communication and interpersonal skills that help counteract the tendency toward isolation. I have seen this benefit in my own case. Although naturally shy, I have developed the ability to initiate friendly conversations with strangers in any setting. Simply providing a warm greeting or a ready smile to others warms my heart and neutralizes the tendency to regard everyone in my immediate environment with distrust. It also stimulates pleasant responses from others, bolstering my countenance in positive ways.

2. You greatly reduce levels of paranoia and mistrust. When psychological attacks are done by a large group (as in gang-stalking) it creates a tendency in the victim to see everyone as a potential participant in psychological torture. You will tend to perceive or imagine that the group attacking you is much bigger than it really is. However, it is only by actively and continuously reaching out to others with kindness that you realize that not everyone is against you. The enemy is “cut down to size.” Even if you do interact with someone who is covertly participating in gang stalking, so what? Their intent is to produce a bitter and irrational response in you. They have failed completely if you interact with them in a calm and pleasant manner!

3. Your pleasant countenance attracts others. People are naturally drawn to kind individuals. As you work to develop this quality, it will draw others to you, earning their loyalty and trust. This counteracts the isolation that is a byproduct of the psychological war waged against you. It helps the victim to maintain and develop healthy friendships that protect mental health.

You cannot control every aspect of the psychological campaign being waged against you. However, by actively displaying kindness to others at every opportunity, you are controlling negative thoughts. That protects your mental health! Looking to the age-old principles of the Bible to counteract the modern weapons of psychological warfare may seem foolish to some. However, with over ten years of experience in waging that battle, I can personally testify to the effectiveness of Bible principles. It is the secret to my success!

An article entitledInvisible Beam Tops List of Nonlethal Weapons” published June 1, 2004 in the Sacramento Bee, discuses one of the better known microwave (millimeter-wave) based invisible remote beam pain weapons, the Active Denial System.

However, the article makes an interesting observation regarding this new generation of “less-than-lethal” weapons: “Military officials are trying to alleviate fears that the device might be misused to harm civilians or converted into a torture machine that leaves no marks.” To that end, social science graduate students were provided grants to “spend the summer reviewing literature and assessing how Americans and other cultures might react to its use.”

These concerns reflect the most obvious use of this class of wall penetrating weapons—torture. Doug Johnson, Executive Director of the Minneapolis-based Center for Torture Victims is skeptical of the Pentagon’s claims that such devices, which are being tested for use by law enforcement and military, will not be used for torture. “Is it torture if it only creates a sensation of pain, but leaves no marks and no long-term damage? I would say yes. Torture is primarily a psychological device, and finding different ways to use the body against the mind has been the struggle of torture technologies for thousands of years.”

“The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only object of good government . . .” - Thomas Jefferson

Medical Testing, Brookhaven National LabDo you find the likelihood of our democratic government (US) covertly performing involuntary weapons testing on its own citizens hard to believe? Does the idea of involuntary directed energy weapons testing/torture and psychological attacks on innocent Americans seem improbable in our enlightened society? Perhaps a look at our recent history may help you to have a more realistic view. . .

Various United States government agencies have, over the course of the 20th century, engaged in involuntary medical and radiation experimentation on American citizens. The Department of Energy, CIA, Public Health Service (now the Dept. of Health and Human Services) and others have admitted to these abuses.

One particularly chilling account is the Vanderbilt Study, conducted with funds provided by the Public Health Service, the Tennessee State Department of Health, and Vanderbilt University between 1945-1949. 820 poor pregnant Caucasian women were given tracer doses of radioactive iron in experiments performed at Vanderbilt University under the pretense of providing free pre-natal care. “The women, who were anywhere from less than ten weeks to more than thirty-five weeks pregnant, were administered a single oral dose of radioactive iron, Fe-59, during their second prenatal visit, before receiving their routine dose of therapeutic iron.” The dose of radiation was administered to the pregnant women in a single “cocktail”. “There is at least some indication that the women neither gave their consent nor were aware they were participating in an experiment. Vanderbilt study subjects, expressing bitterness at the way they believed they had been treated, testified at an Advisory Committee meeting that the proffered drink, called a “cocktail” by the investigators, was offered with no mention of its contents. “I remember taking a cocktail,” one woman said simply. “I don’t remember what it was, and I was not told what it was.” A follow up study showed a disproportionately high incidence of cancer among these subjects. (Writers’ Note: The true number of victims of this experiment is at least 1640, as the defenseless unborn these women carried were also unjustly condemned to drink the radioactive cocktail.) “This experiment was just one of “several thousand government-sponsored human radiation experiments and hundreds of intentional (radiation) releases conducted from 1944 to 1974.”

In another study that caused public outrage, mentally retarded children institutionalized at the Fernald State School. Waltham, Massachusetts, in the 1940’s were fed doses of radiation with their breakfast cereal for the purpose of studying the way the body absorbs calcium and iron. The experiments were “often” performed without the informed consent of the subjects or their families. In late 1995, President Clinton apologized to the subjects at Fernald after an advisory committee’s ruling that the tests were “morally troubling.” Although the government formally apologized, no financial compensation was offered to victims. “The fact of the matter is that they used these kids as guinea pigs,” said Michael Mattchen an attorney for the victims. The actions of the researchers “violates Nuremberg” and “rules of decent society.”

We can only touch the “tip of the iceburg” in this article. Ironically, the same democratic nation that condemned the Nazis for involuntary human experimentation in the medical trials at Nuremberg in 1947 was quietly conducting similar atrocities on American citizens. I invite you to read the Department of Energy’s Human Radiation Experiments website to get a broad synopsis of our history in this regard.

Would you not agree, that our historical context makes the stories of modern day victims of directed energy weapons testing and psychological attacks all the more plausible?

Dr. Viktor E. Frankl photo“There is nothing in the world, I venture to say, that would so effectively help one to survive even the worst conditions, as the knowledge that there is a meaning in one’s life.” That observation by Viktor E. Frankl, a neurologist and Holocaust survivor is apropos to victims of long term injustice, such as directed energy weapons torture and gang-stalking. In 1942, Dr. Frankl along with his wife and his parents were deported to the Theresienstadt concentration camp by the Nazi regime. Though assigned to ordinary labor details until the last few weeks of the war, Frankl tried to cure fellow prisoners from despondency and prevent suicide. He worked in the psychiatric care ward, headed a neurological clinic, and maintained a camp service of psychic hygiene and mental care for those who were weary of life. Although suffering the miseries of Nazi oppression himself, his efforts to help others gave meaning and purpose to his life.

“We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.” Can you see how Frankl’s conclusion can help victims of long-term injustice? Even when adversity continues for years, we can choose our attitude, our response to that hardship.

What attitude should we choose in response to suffering? Dr. Frankl observed that those who became obsessed with retaliation against their abusers were often overcome by bitterness and disillusionment that continued long after they were released from the concentration camps. Such attitudes were most likely to destroy good mental health. However, those who maintained dignity in their view and treatment of others and a strong spirituality were best able to adjust to horrific suffering and maintain sound mental health. One of Frankl’s favorite quotes is the Biblical expression “. . . love is as strong as death is.” —Song of Solomon 8:6. The capacity to love our fellowman can survive any hardship or suffering. When we refuse to abandon love, by not adopting the hatred and cruelty of our oppressors, we retain our humanity and protect our mental health. Such excelling love is a byproduct of a healthy spirituality.

Can we benefit from suffering? The Bible says that Jesus Christ “learned obedience from the things he suffered” —Hebrews 5:8. What Jesus suffered when on earth refined his qualities of love, empathy and compassion while facing cruelty, injustice and wrongful death. Our noblest qualities can also be refined if we view and endure suffering with the right attitude.

Adolf HitlerThe story of Ernest Shackleton provides evidence that flawed humanity has the potential for unselfish good under tremendous adversity. It supplies proof of the existence of God. And it demonstrates that there is never an excuse for gross mistreatment of fellow human beings.

I do not see Shackleton as a great man. Rather, he is an ordinary man who demonstrated great qualities under adversity. Like all of us, he was imperfect, and made mistakes. His circumstance robbed him of all that he valued most, leaving him with only his life, and those of his men. Yet, in that condition, he stuck to the higher calling of his God-given conscience. While not claiming to be a particularly devout man, he demonstrated by altruistic conduct that he knew God. How so?

Shackleton was willing to make extraordinary sacrifices in an effort to help others. Such willingness to help others even if at great personal cost is seen in all races and cultures, and it argues against the claim that man evolved by the law of the jungle, “the survival of the fittest.” Francis S. Collins, a geneticist who led the U.S. government’s effort to decipher the human genome (DNA), said: “Selfless altruism presents a major challenge for the evolutionist. . . . It cannot be accounted for by the drive of individual selfish genes to perpetuate themselves.” He also said: “Some people sacrificially give of themselves to those who are outside their group and with whom they have absolutely nothing in common. . . . That doesn’t seem like it can be explained by a Darwinian model.”

Our inner sense of right and wrong, a sense of fairness that motivates altruism is guided by conscience. As geneticist Francis S. Collins concedes, man’s possession of a conscience cannot be explained by evolution. However, it is explained by God’s Word. The Bible writer Paul wrote: “People of the nations that do not have law do by nature the things of the law. - Romans 2:14 The law they give evidence of having by “nature” is a God-given conscience.

Shackleton’s story furnishes proof that men posses a God-given, God-oriented conscience. And, in spite of our inherently imperfect, frail nature, we can choose to follow the dictates of a healthy conscience under the worst of circumstances.

When Hitler’s officers were put on trial in Nuremeburg after World War II for crimes against humanity, their primary defense was that they were simply following orders. However, International Military Tribunal law states that “Patriotic obedience in crime does not establish innocence.” This law recognizes that all men are obligated to follow the proddings of conscience when ordered to commit acts that they know to be crimes against humanity. As further stated during the Nuremberg trials; “The conscience of humanity is the foundation of all law.” Many of Hitler’s officers were judged guilty, and sentenced to death for ignoring the voice of conscience. Yet, one can find extraordinary examples of conscience among Hitler’s contemporaries in Nazi Germany. Oskar Schindler placed his life in great danger by sheltering more than a thousand Jews from Nazi extermination during World War II, and ultimately died penniless. Schindler made the choice not to follow “orders” due to conscience.

Shackleton faced adversity with conscience. Therefore, I, as a Christian, must face adversity with conscience. I must pay heed to scripture, an unambiguous written authority that reinforces and informs conscience. Although a daily victim of directed energy weapons and psychological attacks, my response must always reflect good conscience. I cannot retaliate, nor can I yield to corruptive influences. I cannot respond in a way that violates Christian principle or conscience. As Shackleton proved, following conscience is the choice all imperfect men can make. Imagine how human society would benefit if all men did!

Lets take a close look at a few qualities that enabled Ernest Shackleton to triumph over tremendous adversity. We may see ways to use these qualities to meet our challenges successfully.

Humility is arguably the single most important quality in effective leaders. A humble man is more likely to earn the affection and loyalty of others. The American Heritage Dictionary defines the word humble as: “Marked by meekness or modesty in behavior, attitude, or spirit; not arrogant or prideful.” Humility is also essential to the survival of victims of directed energy weapons and gang stalking.

Humility is a powerful aid when faced with adversity. It causes a person to think, not just of himself, but of others in a similar plight, and to offer them aid and encouragement. At such a time humility will help one to be content when faced with setbacks and losses. It will help one to make the best of circumstances, being thankful for the good they are yet able to enjoy. Shackleton is a fine example of this quality in action. He lost everything he valued in short order; his mission to cross Antarctica, and his ship when it was destroyed by pack ice. He and his men were stranded on a bleak, remote island with no way to contact the outside world. In such conditions, most men eventually succumb to despair and madness. Shackleton humbly took each loss and disappointment in stride and focused on a new mission; keeping his men alive and getting them home safe. He kept up the morale of his men and never complained about all that he lost.

Humilty can also be a tremendous aid to victims of directed energy weapons torture and gang stalking. To avoid being overwhelmed by the attacks we undergo, we must not focus exclusively on our own concerns. It is vital that we continue to show an active and ongoing concern for others. Look for ways to benefit and support others. This will prevent us from isolating ourselves mentally and emotionally. Long-term isolation will destabilize us, and is a primary intent of the psychological attacks.

Humble individuals are flexible in adjusting to adverse conditions, whereas proud persons are impatient, quick to express rage. Humility enables us to make the best of changed circumstances. We can continue to be thankful for the good that we are able to enjoy while not allowing the adversity to dominate our outlook. Humility promotes a healthy mental disposition, the perfect antidote for the emotionally caustic effects of psychological attacks.

Even in small things, humility can help us to make decisions that preserve a positive mental outlook. Here’s an example from my own experience. One of the irritations the gang-stalkers among my neighbors employ is littering the area surrounding my apartment. I found it better to simply pick up the items (it takes only a couple of minutes) rather than engaging in a verbal tirade with someone who is purposely trying to provoke me. Granted, some may not consider that the perfect solution. Which do you think is preferable: To engage in a useless defense of my injured pride, or address the problem in a way that protects my mental health from self-destructive anger? That small action helps me to avoid the spite and pettiness of my surroundings. By constantly reminding myself to cultivate humility I avoid needless emotional “wear and tear”.

Whether it’s struggling to rescue a crew from certain death as Shackleton did, or coping with long-term injustice, humility can mean the difference between success and failure.

Failure Is Not Inevitable!

Interestingly, Shackleton’s triumph is a direct contradiction of the claim made in the CIA Human Resources Exploitation Manual regarding psychological regression (see Why Gang Stalking Works). This Manual, based upon the principles of Evolutionary Psychology claims that when a “superior outside force is brought to bear on a subjects will to resist, the subject will lose his learned personality traits, including his ability to cope with complex situations and repeated frustations.” In other words, under great pressure, we prove to be nothing more than trained dogs that abandon good behavior when threatened and cornered.

Ernest Shackleton faced a “superior outside force,” complex situations,” and “repeated frustrations.” Why didn’t he abandon noble principles and lose his “will to resist?” How was he able to keep his focus on the altruistic goal of rescuing all of his men in spite of overwhelming odds and hardship? Can victims of directed energy weapons and gang-stalking demonstrate the same resolve as Shackleton?

The answer can be a source of great encouragement for anyone who must endure long-term injustice. Failure under adversity is NOT inevitable. Like Shackleton, we can face a “superior outside force” and prevail. The Bible indicates that man was created in the “image of God” in the sense that we can cultivate and demonstrate the altruistic qualities of God such as love, justice, and mercy. And we can do so under great pressure and succeed! Shackleton’s example bears witness to that.

I was particularly touched by the kindness Shackleton showed his men. He expected much from them, yet, accorded each one dignity. He also demonstrated personal interest when they fell sick or became discouraged. Like most seagoing crews, the staff was comprised of strong and diverse personalities. Shackleton avoided pettiness and spite in dealing with his men and was never abusive. In fact, when one of his officers, a former boxer, began to bully his subordinates he was quickly demoted by Shackleton. He would not tolerate the abusive treatment of even the lowest ranked member of his crew. Such restraint is especially challenging during times of hardship when tempers are short and frustration high.

Shackleton’s example impressed upon me the need to always follow what is termed “The Golden Rule.” “All things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must likewise do to them” - Matthew 7:12 In other words, treat others the way you want to be treated, not the way they treat you. That excelling principle has affected my view of my persecutors and torturers. How so? I know that I do not under any circumstances have the right to speak or behave abusively toward them. My responses must always be respectful and dignified in spite of any suffering I may undergo. Injustice does not give me license to abandon that high standard. Shackleton’s example proves that it is possible for imperfect, average people like me to live by such high standards even when pressed to our limits by adversity.
