    As Alex Constantine's cites in a recent paper on the possible
assassinations of many rock n' roll musicians, "In 1967, the CIA conceived
Operation CHAOS in response to the rising popular backlash to the Vietnam
War.  Vern Lyons, a former CIA undercover operative and current director of
the Des Moines Hispanic Ministry, traced the roots of CHAOS to the Eisenhower
administration and the monitoring of emigre organizations on domestic soil.
The Eisenhower sanction transformed the Agency into an internal Security
patrol and made CHAOS -- still secret, since the files remain classified to
the present day (the little that is known originates almost entirely from
former and active spooks),

    "The CIA's office of Security was monitoring other groups at this time
and had recruited agents within different emigre organizations.  The CIA
considered this normal extension of its authorized infiltration of dissident
groups abroad even though the activity was taking place within the
U.S....This activity led the CIA to establish proprietary companies, fronts
and covers for its domestic operations.  So widespread did they become that
President Johnson allowed the then CIA Director, John McCone, to create in
1964 a new super-secret branch called the Domestic Operations Division
(DOD)...With the Nixon Administration clearing the way, a clandestine war was
waged against the youth and civil rights movements.  The Army's
counter-Intelligence Analysis Branch collected personality profiles, mug
shots and "black lists," sorted on computer-files and microfilm reels.  The
DOD....gathered information at demonstrations..."  (1)

    And, although Constantine doesn't follow through on the meaning of this
word in CIA directives, it would appear that the CIA and FBI have done a
pretty good job of expanding this vicious war methodology to apply to vast
numbers of innocent, but targeted mind control victims in today's world.  A
great many of CHAOS' victims, Constantine cites, may have been counter
culture leaders, many of whom may have died as the result of questionnable
"accidental" deaths (including Hendrix, Joplin, P. Oches, Morrison's, Lennon,
T. Buckley, C. White (Byrds), M. Jeffrey (Hendrix's manager), Richard Farina,
Otis Redding, etc.). (2)  The government may have well named and designed
this sadistic program of internal annihilation for chaotic social systems it
learned about through research on sadistic voodoo cultures, utilizing evil
and chaos as behavorial modification methods, based in the Caribbean and in
particular areas of the United States.  Research on these cultures began in
earnest with the early division of the CIA, according to J. Marks. (3)

    The principle of "chaos" as a war strategy with the practice of rituals
is well known to aggressive indigenous cultures worldwide, notably African
and Latin American groups, as a manner of effectively effecting behavior.  In
the Caribbean, these rituals are called Santeria.   The integration of a
chaotic war philosophy into culture is based upon a certain acceptance of it
as not only a winning technique but it being a normal state of existence,
that is that all life has some evil within it.  From the cultures practicing
Santeria, there are many different types and levels of its rituals.  It is
nothing to fool around with for the beginner as many a practioner will
caution.  As a mind control victim, I learned early on that evil and chaos as
war maneuvers were very probably the perfect tactic and it appears, through
inaction and action, that governmental agencies are involved in perpetuating
this type of peacetime war system throughout the U.S.  Against evil and chaos
there appeared to be a few defenses: 1) hide, 2) ignore or 3) give it back,
if pushed too hard.  But, aside from defenses, Gonzales-Wippler does an
admirable job at describing the complex philosophy behind this little known
and little written about ritual aspect of Caribbean and southern U.S.
cultures.  She starts off by describing its origins in time:

     "Latin American magic, better known in Spanish as Santeria, had its
birth in Nigeria, along the banks of the Niger River.  This is the country of
origin of the Yoruba people, who, among many other African Tribes, were
brought to the New World by slave traders over four centuries ago.  The
Yorubas brought with them the colorful mythology of their religion, known in
Cuba as lucumi and in Brazil as macumba."  (4)

Gonzales-Wippler goes on to explain in great depth and detail the system of
evil (= chaos) which Caribbean groups within many of the Antilles adopted
within a mixed culture of Indios, Black, and Hispanic peoples (known today in
parts of the world as the French and British Creoles, the French Creoles
coming from Haiti, New Orleans and Detroit; British Creoles heralding from
Jamaica and parts of Britain, Canada and the Great Lakes area of the U.S.).
Gonzales-Wippler gives the following description:

    "There are two forms of evil.  Negative evil and positive evil.  Negative
evil is the �polarizing opposite of Good.'  For example, it is difficult to
walk on a slippery surface, because it offers no resistance.  There has to be
something for the foot to push against to give the body the necessary
momentum to take a step.  Negative evil is the principle of resistance, or
inertia, that enables good to manifest itself.  This principle of resistance
is the principle of destruction, which is also known by its esoteric name of
the �Scavenger of the Gods.'  According to well-known occultist Dion Fortune,
the function of the principle of destruction is �to clear up behind the
advancing tide of evolution, removing that which has become effete so that it
may not choke or clog evolving life.'  This explains why God �tolerates' the
devil.  For the devil is nothing more than the �cosmic thrust-block' of the
Deity.  Thus it is obviously a necessary evil, a reaction based on cosmic
laws, not a chaotic or anarchial force.

    "Positive evil, on the other hand, has, as its negative aspect, pure
chaos, uniformed substance, and imbalance.  It is the antithesis of order and
harmony.  It is all that is unnatural and in direct opposition to the
creative principle of the universe.  It is the absolute denial of the cosmic
laws of stability and coherence.  The positive aspect of positive evil is the
demonic entities that symbolize all the evil imaginings of man that are not
compensated by the surplus of good and harmonious thoughts in other members
of the same group soul.  From these chaotic intelligences flow all the
destructive impulses that tempt and corrupt mankind.  They probably
originated though the practice of black magic across the ages.  The black
magicians organized and shaped the original evil substances into plastic
molds with definite characteristics and personalities.  The beings thus
created assumed an independent existence and rapidly developed and multiplied
their kind.  They often become visually perceptible during dreams and
hallucinations, and may be tapped and made to manifest themselves physically
by means of invocations and conjurations."  (5)

    The author also provides a very interesing diagram to help readers better
understand these principles:
                    Negative Aspect (principle of inertia)
                   /
           Negative Evil /
                / (passive)      \
                     /                    \ Positive Aspect (principle of
destruction)
        /
                   /
          EVIL
             \                     Negative Aspect (chaos, imbalance)
                    \                   /
                     \                 /
                      \Positive Evil
                       (active)       \
                                         \Positive Aspect (demonic entities)

The following caption accompanies this chart: "Evil is composed of two
polaring aspects -- negative evil and positive evil.  Of the two aspects,
positive evil is the active-male principle, and therefore the most malefic of
the two.  It generates and engenders further evil.  That which is positively
evil is more actively destructive." (6)

    Gonzales-Wippler does a superb job of not only describing the use of
these cultural traits within a ritual context, but also a fine job of
describing the philosophy behind the acts.  She explains some of the use of
the finely-honed telepathy networks the shaman (similar to a medicine man)
use for effecting their "magic."  All of this is appropriate to many of the
maligned agencies the government has funded and perpetuated for the purposes
of inflicting brain control testing on nonconsensual human subjects.  The
difference between Gonzales-Wippler's descriptions and what mind control
victims have been subjected to is that these cultures recognize the use of
chaos as a war strategy, our government does not acknowledge its involvement
or conscience use of these philosophies to control behavior.  In a
forthcoming essay, more about Gonzales-Wippler's encounters with shaman and
exactly how they altered human behavior, with telepathy, for payment from
their payees, also more about black-black evil philosophies, Brujeria, (7)
and the evil eye as it pertains to NASA studies (8).
