Other countries are known to have a similar aircraft, but the PR officer
declined to identify them, suggesting that I check out Jane's Defence
Weekly for such information.  Not having access to that particular
publication, I searched through my copy of Jane's Radar and Electronic
Warfare Systems 1993094. [10]  The Commando Solo unit was not listed,
but a browse through the book was informative as to the numerous types of
electronic offence and defence systems available.  These include sta-
tionary and mobile land units (many housed in large trucks), shipboard and
airborne models as well as well as space-based technology.  If the military
is spending US $100 million per airborne unit (times eight, we're talking
US $800 million here), I think it is safe to assume that they have tried
out mind control equipment with less expensive, roving land units (trucks),
but use the airplanes to cover wider areas and hard-to-reach locations of
the world.

And I might add, we can asume that they have tried out the efficacy of this
mind-control technology.  Even the US military would not waste $800 million
on something unless it has been proven to work, and work effectively, even
under the adverse situation of military combat.  This is an important 
point.

The initial research into mind control in the USA was conducted udner the
auspices of the CIA.  The flagrant abuse of human rights in experimenting
on unsuspecting persons was based on the supposition that the veracity of
experiments would be compromised if a subject knew that he was participating
in an experiment.  In the case of mind-control technology, tehis supposition
might very well be true.  But that does not justify its use -- or so said
the Nuremburg Code, the tenets of which were used as a legal basis to pro-
secute Nazi scientists for war crimes.  However the US seems to have 
excused its own military and scientific community from adhering to that
Code. [11]

MANIPULATING MIND AND BODY BY SATELLITE

The next logical step in mind control would be to incorporate this tech-
nology into satellite communications.  Since other countries are known
to have similar capabilities, there could occur a sitution in which
electronic mind control warfare is waged against a civilian population,
receiving conflicting mental manipulation from both sides.  What would be
the mental state of individuals so targetted?  Would it cause a rise in
mental aberrations and schizophrenia?  And what are the limits of mind
manipulations?  Can people be forced to commit suicide?  Can physical 
ailments or psychosomatic illnesses be induced?

A March 1990 report from Bosnia-Herzegovina in the former Yugoslavia sug-
gests the latter may have already happened.  The report concerns 2,990
ethnic Albanians who were admitted to hospital with complaints of lung and
skin problems for which doctors could find no physical cause. [12]
