- The legal questions offered to the Supreme Court in Kronisch
vs. U.S. may be dishwater dull. The underlying story is something else.
This is a case haunted by the ghosts of a time gone by.
-
- The time was October 1952; the place was the Cafe Select
in Paris.
-
- Stanley Milton Glickman, a promising young artist, had
been drawn to the cafe by an acquaintance who wanted him to meet some American
friends. For several hours they engaged in contentious debate on political
issues. U.S. Circuit
-
- Judge Jose A. Cabranes tells the story:
-
- "As Glickman prepared to leave, one of the men offered
Glickman a drink as a conciliatory gesture. Rather than call over the waiter,
the man walked to the bar to get the drink, at which point Glickman observed
that he had a clubfoot. Halfway through the drink, Glickman 'began to experience
a lengthening of distance and a distortion of perception,' and he observed
that 'the faces of the gentlemen flushed with excitement as they watched
the execution of the drink.'
-
- "Glickman left the cafe and experienced distortions
of color and other hallucinations. When Glickman awoke the next morning,
he was hallucinating intensely. . . . He was taken to the American Hospital
of Paris, where he was examined and given electric shock treatment. Over
the next 10 months, Glickman remained mostly in his studio, experiencing
'stress, terror, hallucination and difficulty eating, which reduced his
body to a feeble quality.'
-
- "Back in the United States, in July 1953, Glickman
was treated by a doctor. He saw psychiatrists on a few occasions. His physical
condition began to improve, but his mental condition did not. Over the
next 25 years, he held various odd jobs but never painted again and never
led a normal social life.
-
- He died on Dec. 11, 1992."
-
- The core allegation in the pending case is that Dr. Sidney
Gottlieb, an agent of the Central Intelligence Agency, was the man with
the clubfoot.
-
- Gloria Kronisch, Glickman's sister and executor of his
estate, charges that on that night in 1952, Gottlieb laced her brother's
drink with LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) as part of a surreptitious
testing program. The CIA admits the program but says it can find no record
of Glickman's unwitting participation. The records that might establish
his sister's claim were destroyed in 1973 at Gottlieb's direction.
-
- In the 1970s, two Senate committees conducted separate
hearings on the CIA's activities in drug research. An agent testified that
in 1950 the CIA received reports that the Soviet Union was engaged in intensive
efforts to produce LSD as a tool for interrogation. In response, the CIA
launched a project that involved the surreptitious administration of LSD
"to unwitting nonvolunteer subjects at all social levels, high and
low, native American and foreign." The CIA's purpose was to develop
defensive techniques for resisting interrogation and to evaluate the offensive
uses of drugs as a tool for its own "unconventional interrogation
techniques."
-
- As chief of the chemical division of the CIA's Technical
Services Division, Gottlieb was the man in charge. He drafted an undercover
agent of the Bureau of Narcotics to assist in clandestine experiments with
LSD in New York. He himself took charge of experiments abroad. The CIA
acknowledges that Gottlieb performed interrogations on foreign nationals,
but not in France and not until 1953, a year after the alleged incident
at the Cafe Select.
-
- Even before the story broke wide open before the Senate
committees, Glickman had been trying to learn what had happened. His letters
to the CIA drew unresponsive responses. Finally in 1983 he brought suit
in U.S. District Court against Gottlieb and CIA Director Richard Helms
under the Federal Tort Claims Act. The suit bounced up and down in federal
courts until May 1999, two months after Gottlieb's death, when Glickman's
case was dismissed on a motion of summary judgment. The case went up to
a panel of the Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit.
-
- Cabranes affirmed in large part. He dismissed Kronisch's
basic suit against Helms and the United States as barred by the applicable
statute of limitations. He left open the estate's slim chance of recovery
by preserving a right for Glickman's executor to pursue a personal action
against Gottlieb's estate. The claim must be limited to the allegation
that Gottlieb himself administered the LSD-laced drink that night in Paris
nearly 50 years ago.
-
- I doubt that the Supreme Court will take the case. It
does not involve intra-circuit conflicts, and it presents no novel questions
of statutory or constitutional law. Even so, skeletons in a closet make
for good reading. Tom Clancy? John LeCarre? There's a spy story waiting
to be written.

- Comments:
-
- Oak Ridge had access to these CIA LSD experiments and
persons at Y-12 studied these files extensively. At Y-12 were other
club footed persons that designed the Y-12 chemical processes, persons
like Googin.
-
- Yep-----Gottlieb was one of the crooks that violated
the human experiments code. Oak Ridge has long known all of Gottlieb's
experiments and the CIA's applications.
-
- The LSD is also the favorite technique of harrassment
against nuke and fluoride activists. LSD is skin absorbable and usually
impregnated into paper
-
- One of the tricks is to mix the LSD into black shoe polish
and apply it to black pants of targetted persons. The stuff then time
releases with temperature kinda like the Shell No-Pest strips. This
is also the nickname for the technique.
-
- The other trick is smear it onto furniture.
-
- It drives the targetted person nuts---------unless they
happen to know that trick. Still takes a while to figure it out.
-
- Combinations of fluorides and LSD make targetted spies
forget who they are----which is why the CIA likes it. It is also known
to cause suicides with persons panicing, sometimes jumping out windows.
Some suspect this is what happened to Forrestal after he visited Area
51 and learned of the cover ups connected to 47 nuclear tests with live
indigenous humans in lenticular German designed airfoiles.
-
- This cover up of this human experimentation continues
today with the help of many planted activists and lawyers helping DOE and
DOD hide this.

- Oak Ridge and its' industry minions use supplanted activist
organizations fabricating mysterious illness directions to hide HF emission/toxic
effects and nuclear human experiment war crimes.
-
- Oak Ridge and other gas diffusion sites are primarily
Bhopal like chemical affected areas and secondarily a Chernobyl like radiation
affected area. Gas diffusion sites are also affected with high coal power
emissions and compounded with heavy metal toxins and hundreds of other
toxic exposure from the plants
-
- These exposures cause shortened longevity, impacted learning,
and produce a gullible population for political and industry profiting.
-
- Gulf War affected have related fluoride toxic effects
from nerve gases.
-
- In common with GW and DOE gas diffusion ills are long
term halogen toxic insult via bioconcentration into the lymphatic system,
impairment of macrophages, and damage to mitochondria of cells resulting
in immune protection damage and resultant rise of viral, bacterial, microplasma,
and fungal cell damage.
-
-
- In the new millenium, the truth will set all free to
enter a kinder and gentler time for environment and health.
