Time To Set the Record Straight: Part 1
����by BARBARA HARTWELL
I find it necessary to address some issues, in regard to information about
myself and my case as well as my dealings with certain people who have also
gone public with their testimony, research and viewpoints regarding mind
control, gov't black ops and related topics.
My main concern is that there is a lot of misinformation and disinformation
out there - both on the Internet and floating around as rumour.
You've read it on the Internet? Heard it on a radio show? Heard it from
someone who claims to be a close associate of mine or a
purported "insider"? It ain't necessarily so.
So before things get too far out of control, it's time for me to set the
record straight. In light of the rapidly worsening circumstances of my life,
designed by the perps to drive me further into the downward spiral of illness
and poverty which has become an ever-more-serious threat to my life, as well
as the escalating sabotage of all my attempts to disseminate my own material,
I need to clarify the truth about as many of these issues as I can --while
there is yet time.
God willing, there will be.
I won't be able to cover it all in the length allowed by this report -not by
a long shot. Just consider this the first of a series of reports. My intent
is only to tell the truth as I know it, to correct misinformation, to refute
false allegations, erroneous suppositions or
theories which I have seen published or which have come back to me as rumours
through the grapevine. Any opinions expressed here are solely my own; and I
do not presume to speak for anyone but myself.
But since it's my life that's the issue, and my reputation that's at stake,
it's important that to the best of my ability, I let the truth be known. As
for the facts I present here, they should also speak for themselves.
FACTUAL DATA
I was born on March 12, 1951 on Manhattan Island in NYC. (March 13,
Universal or 'Zulu' Time) I am indeed 50 years of age, despite the opinions
expressed by those who insist that I "could not be old enough" to have the
extensive history which I claim as my own. It seems these folks are judging
by the photos of me posted on my website. Those photos were all taken between
1997-2000. I can't help it if I look younger than I am; but I'm tired of my
appearance compromising my credibility.
I AM a survivor of the following gov't black operations: CIA MK ULTRA;
Phoenix Project - colloquially known as Montauk- and otherwise known as
'Rainbow'; and of other 'deep black' CIA sponsored or related operations
which for now shall remain nameless.
I was never involved in the project known as 'Monarch', that being
publicized by Mark Phillips and others.
I was never victimized/utilized as a so-called 'sex slave' or 'presidential
model' as many people seem to have falsely assumed --erroneously supposing
that my experiences have been similar to those being publicized by Cathy
O'Brien; Susan Ford aka Brice Taylor and others in this milieu.
I am not a survivor of Satanic Ritual Abuse.
I am not a survivor of pedophilia, child pornography or incest.
I broke out of CIA black ops and related mind control programming
not suddenly, or all at once - but finally and irrevocably in 1994- after a
years-long battle with my handlers - and started to go public in 1996.
I have not been 'deprogrammed' by any formal methodolgy or with the help of
any professional 'deprogrammer'. I broke the mind control programming through
many years of prayer and with God's help.
SOME BACKGROUND INFO
There's not enough space to include all the details here, but only an
overview.
My professional background, education, training and credentials are mainly in
the areas of metaphysics/ parapsychology/spiritual disciplines. I was
ordained and licensed as a minister in the Universalist Church in 1979, and
specialized in spiritual/pastoral counselling, but I have not practiced as a
minister in many years and am no longer affiliated with any church or
organized religion.
I am trained in the Jungian/Transpersonal method of psychotherapy and
'psychological' astrology. I am a certified hypnotherapist
and my work as a Jungian-method astrologer, psychotherapist and lecturer on
these subjects has been endorsed by the Carl Jung Society in NYC and
Westport, CT as well as numerous other educational institutes.
I lectured and taught classes on metaphysics and spiritual disciplines for
over 20 years at various institutes. During this time frame, I also worked as
a professional clairvoyant. In practicing these various disciplines my work
included private counselling for individuals and families; investigative work
on cases for legal firms and DA's offices, some of which were international
in scope; personnel counselling and consulting for corporate entities.
CIA 'fronts' and proprietaries (including some of these corporations
and legal firms) regularly contracted my services.
I was considered a professional CIA asset and utilized in various capacities
as such for many years.
My "cover" was that I was working as an "independent contractor" or
"talent". On the 'outside' I appeared to be 'self-employed', which though
legitimate, does not describe the complex nature of my situation. In
actuality, I functioned as a deep cover operative, acting partially - though
not totally - under programmed controls.
I have also worked as an investigative journalist in both electronic and
print media for over 20 years. From 1987-1995 I hosted/produced radio and TV
programs in Connecticut, on WGCH radio, Greenwich, CT and Cablevision of CT,
Norwalk, while residing in Greenwich, CT.
The topics I addressed on these programs were related mostly to the
spiritual/paranormal/metaphysical; UFO research; gov't corruption and
conspiracies; human and animal rights, and political activism.
My training as 'on-camera talent' and in TV production was sponsored by a CIA
front company which also funded my TV programs and paid me a monthly stipend
for various consulting services.
I had been trained and groomed by CIA ( among other things ) as a 'media
representative' (read propagandist) for the 'New Age' and New World Order.
I will address these issues in more detail in an upcoming article : CIA
Propaganda Ministry: The New Age and New World Order.
During the 1980s, I served as a press representative and investigator for
Amnesty International.
From 1986 to the present I have conducted extensive research on UFOs and
related phenomena, both as a field investigator and an investigative
journalist. While hosting/producing my radio and TV programs I interviewed
many of the most well-known UFO researchers and 'abductees' ; 'contactees' ;
'experiencers' as they variously described themselves.
Between 1994 and 1997 I conducted an intensive investigation in Pine Bush, NY
and surrounding areas, including nearby West Point. My investigation mainly
focussed on covert gov't/military black ops being run out of this and other
areas, some of which I had been personally utilized in while still under
programmed control.
For many years I led what I can only describe as a 'double life',
or even more strange, a 'multiple life'. And by that I don't mean
'multiple personality disorder'.
Due to the utterly bizarre nature of the so-called 'paranormal' aspects of
the projects in whihc I was was utilized, such as Phoenix/Montauk - which can
only be characterized as 'deep black' ops - some of my experiences defy
description. I realize the extreme difficulty of gathering solid evidence,
not only to substantiate my own experiences and involvement - but for the
very existence of the operations.
When you are dealing with hyper-space, multi dimensonal and interdimensional
planes of existence and the like, it can be next to impossible to nail down
the absolute truth, much less prove it.
I am well aware that speaking about the stranger-than-fiction aspects
of my experiences, and what I KNOW-but cannot prove- to be true
has been a major stumbling block as regards my credibility.
Therefore, I have tried to stick as much as possible to the more mundane
aspects of the operations, though my frustration in not being able to do
justice to the 'real truth' often gets the better of me.
What I find most important is to expose the massive violations of
human rights which are instrumental in the black operations and
mind control programs in which I and others were victimized.
I consider myself a champion of individual rights; a defender of the
constitution; an advocate for the oppressed. Before such violations can be
stopped - the ultimate goal - they must be exposed.
I chose to go public about my own involvement in black ops for these
purposes. As a whistleblower, I can offer my own testimony. As an
investigative journalist I can publicize cases of other
victims/survivors/targeted individuals.
And as someone who has been involved in human rights activism for
over 30 years - my first arrest for civil disobedience was in 1969 -
I continue to do all in my power to put a stop to the abuses which
I have witnessed and experienced.
I am not now - nor have I ever been- affiliated with any group or
organization for survivors of mind control or other forms of abuse. I
currently workas an independent researcher and journalist.
Since I have been blacklisted from the mainstream media due to my
whistleblower status, I publish my own material on my website and in my
newsletter, the Hartwell Intelligence Report.
I intend to start serializing on the Internet the material intended
for my book, so that in the event I don't live long enough to finish the
book, at least I will have put out as much material as possible which can
later be edited by others into an anthology or comprehensive volume.
RE MY PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS
TED GUNDERSON, FBI Senior Special-Agent-in-Charge, Bureau Chief Los
Angeles,CA, ret. I first met Ted in 1997 when he and I were both speakers at
the Global Sciences Congress in Denver, Colorado. I subsequently developed a
friendship and professional association with Ted. Ted conducted an
investigation of my case between 1997 and 2000.
During that time, I spent many hours in phone conversations and meetings with
Ted, which took place at various locations around the U.S. I also spoke
publicly with him in radio and TV interviews and shared the same podium in
lectures and seminars.
Any rumours that I was romantically involved with Ted are false; there was a
close friendship and professional relationship but
nothing more. Also false are rumours that Ted was ever my 'handler' ,
'programmer' or 'deprogrammer'.
In January 2000, I had a serious disagreement with Ted which created a
conflict of interests and led to my decision to break off my professional
association with him. The major point of contention concerned Ted's
allegations -in conjunction with those of Susan Ford aka Brice Taylor- that
Kurt Billings was a 'CIA plant'.
I told Ted that based on my own interactions with Kurt, I strongly
disagreed that Kurt was a 'plant'. I asked Ted and Sue to furnish
evidence for this allegation, but no evidence whatsoever was forthcoming,
only their personal opinions. Speculative hearsay was also relayed by other
associates of Ted and Sue whose 'bona fides' and credibility I considered
dubious at best. I told Ted at that
time that I was unwilling to take part in what I could only see as a slander
campaign for the purpose of discrediting Kurt, a colleague whom I also
considered a friend, and still do.
As a result of these (IMO, false) allegations, which were being disseminated
by Sue and Ted, and which may have compromised Kurt's reputation, I
subsequently wrote a public testimonial in Kurt's defense, because I believed
-and still do- that Kurt's reputation and character were being unjustly
defamed. Kurt did not ask me to write anything on his behalf; it was my
decision based on what I deemed to be the ethically correct thing to do.
I will not offer a lengthy opinion here as to the reasons why Sue Ford and
Ted Gunderson claimed to believe Kurt to be a 'plant'. I
will only say that from Sue's perspective, I believe it had to do with Kurt's
unwillingness to follow along with what he
considered Sue's ill-advised ideas regarding what was best for her daughter
Kelly, who has been seriously damaged as a result of extreme abuses dating
from her early childhood. Kurt is a Christian minister, a 20 -year researcher
of mind control and has worked with mind control victims, and in this
capacity Sue had asked Kurt to see if he might be able to help Kelly.
But Kurt clearly stated to Sue after observing Kelly's seriously debilitated
physical and mental condition that he was simply not qualified in the
capacity of a psychiatric/ mental health professional to work with Kelly and
that the type of help
Kelly needed could not possibly be provided by him. As for myself, I can
understand Kurt's position. There is much more to this story, which it is not
my place to publicly tell; and also because I must honor confidences that
were shared with me. But I have no reason to believe Kurt to be a 'CIA plant'
; and in fact many good reasons to disbelieve it, having been in a position
to observe certain situations and to hear both sides of the controversy.
So let's set this one to rest: I do not believe Kurt Billings to be a "CIA
plant" nor have I ever been part of a campaign to discredit
Kurt, publicly nor privately. And while we're on the subject, one more
thing: any rumours that Kurt was ever my 'handler' or 'programmer' are also
false and are based purely on speculation from uninformed sources and/or have
been planted as purposeful disinformation in an attempt to discredit myself
and Kurt.
A number of people subsequently contacted me claiming to have information
about Ted Gunderson.Some claimed they had "inside info" re Ted. I listened
with an open mind to what all of them had
to say. All I was ever interested in was finding the truth. Some of the
people whose testimony I heard regarding Ted -both pro and con- are people I
respect; others are people for whom -with good reason- I have no respect.
I cannot speak for any of these people, nor can I prove or disprove their
allegations. But I don't form my own opinions based on anyone else's good or
bad experiences, especially if there is no hard evidence to substantiate
their testimony. And I refuse to be a part of spreading public slander about
anyone, including Ted. All I can go by are my own personal experiences with
any individual along with facts and evidence I am able to establish.
Although my disagreement with Ted was a source of great sadness;
caused me considerable stress; and prompted much soul-searching
on my part, in all fairness to Ted I must say that he never treated me
personally with anything but kindness, respect and concern for my
well-being. I will also say that he never refused to help me when I was in
need
