Anna Paulina Luna Doubles Down on Mind Control

After two ridiculous hearings on the JFK assassination and a silly hearing on MK-Ultra, Anna Paulina Luna is ready to strike again.

Luna's Ridiculous Hearing

Luna's second hearing -- I don't know what was worse - the silly testimony of the witnesses or the brainless questions of the committee members.

MK-Ultra -- Once Again

In September, she will be having hearings on the RFK assassination, and Lisa Pease will be testifying.

Lisa Pease is the author of A Lie Too Big to Fail: The Real History of the Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy. Pease believes that Sirhan Sirhan was hypnotized that night in Los Angeles and was firing blanks.

Several other witnesses also thought Sirhan was firing was a cap gun or blanks by the sound alone. Dick Tuck heard “what sounded like cap pistols or firecrackers.” He heard at least five shots and then a commotion broke out. Valerie Schulte thought the gun sounded like a “cap gun.” Richard Lubic told the FBI he heard two shots “which sounded like shots from a starter pistol at a track meet.” And this is still not a complete list of such statements.

The simplest explanation for this is also the best explanation: Sirhan was actually firing blanks, not bullets, in the pantry. This explanation fits everything witnesses saw, felt and heard. And if Sirhan were firing blanks, everything else starts to fall into place.

Knowing Sirhan was going to be firing blanks, other conspirators simply had to wait until Sirhan fired his first shot. Then, while everyone else in the pantry froze in shock and fear, assassins moved quickly to get the job done.

Pease mentions MK-Ultra nineteen times in her book and believes that Sirhan Sirhan was a victim of mind control.

Mel Ayton reviewed Pease's book and found it to be nonsense. Here is what he wrote about Pease's idea of a hypnotized patsy:

Myth No. 3: The Hypnotized Assassin

Like conspiracy theorists before her, Pease believes that Sirhan was a hypnotized assassin programmed to forget. She takes Sirhan at his word that he cannot remember anything after drinking coffee with a girl at the Ambassador Hotel—until he became aware of being choked as he was being subdued by Kennedy’s bodyguards in the kitchen pantry.

Falling further down the rabbit hole Pease argues that a hypnotized Sirhan served as a distraction in front of Kennedy, firing blanks and drawing the crowd’s attention, while the actual shooters shot Kennedy from behind and escaped. She cites a number of witnesses who thought the sounds of the shooting sounded as though they came from a cap gun emitting shredded paper which fluttered through the air. This is the totality of her proof that Sirhan did not fire real bullets.

Pease cites hypnotists Bjorn Nielsen and Derren Brown as evidence that hypnotized assassins can be created.

Nielsen purportedly hypnotized Palle Hardrup to commit murder in 1951. But on 5 August 1972, Palle Hardrup gave an interview to Soren Petersen of the Danish tabloid newspaper B.T. He admitted he had not been hypnotized into committing the murders. Presaging Sirhan’s imaginative defense in 1968, Hardrup told the B.T. journalist that when the police had suggested that hypnotism had caused the crimes, he realized he “might get off the hook” if he agreed.

Pease also naively alleges a show business hypnotist, Derren Brown, had successfully “programmed” a “Manchurian Candidate–style” assassin during one of his television shows. The entertainer himself, however, has scorned these claims. In 2018 Brown said, “The more bewildered we are, the more susceptible we become . . . . I’m quite open about how the whole thing I do happens in inverted commas, so not to believe everything you see or hear. It’s a form of entertainment. Some of it’s real and some of it isn’t. Hopefully, part of the fun is trying to unpick that.”

Pease also accepts without reservation the conclusions of Dr. Daniel Brown, who has asserted that Sirhan “did not act under his own volition and knowledge at the time of the assassination and is not responsible for actions coerced and/or carried out by others.” According to Brown, Sirhan was a “true ‘Manchurian Candidate,’ hypno-programmed into carrying out a violent political act without knowing it.”

Brown is a proponent of “recovered memory syndrome” which postulates that some patients who have suffered trauma in their lives have, over the years, suppressed memories of it—and yet it is possible to revive these memories through proper treatment. The existence of repressed memory recovery has not been accepted by mainstream psychology, including by the Royal College of Psychiatrists in Britain, the British Psychological Society, and the American Psychological Association. According to the latter, it is not possible to distinguish repressed memories from false ones without corroborating evidence. Some experts in the field of human memory believe that no credible scientific support exists for the notions of repressed/recovered memories. The mechanism(s) by which both of these phenomena happen are not well understood.

Many conspiracy advocates believe the CIA used hypnosis to control Sirhan and then programmed him to forget. The agency, however, had long before abandoned the idea that it was possible to turn men into puppets. CIA scientists were also never able to produce “total amnesia” in a subject, and a CIA scientist named Morse Allen came to the conclusion there were too many variables in hypnosis for it to be a reliable tool for such a sensitive activity. The Israeli Mossad came to the same conclusion. Their officers once attempted to hypnotize a Palestinian into killing Yassir Arafat but the plot failed when they discovered that hypnosis failed to create the desired results.

It seems clear Sirhan himself was the original propagator of this fantasy. There is compelling evidence that Sirhan used his knowledge of Perry Smith, a real-life murderer portrayed in Truman Capote’s 1965 book, In Cold Blood, to promote the fable that he, too, had been in a hypnotic state when he shot RFK. Sirhan, an avid reader, identified and felt great empathy with Smith, according to author Robert Blair Kaiser. Smith had bouts of “shivering,” “amnesia,” and “trance-like states, and like him, Sirhan engaged in “mirror-gazing” and fell into “trances.”

The hypnotized assassin theory is fundamentally flawed because a robotic assassin can never be a guaranteed success. A hypnotist can plant a suggestion in the subject’s mind and ask him to forget that suggestion, but there is no fool-proof way of preventing another hypnotist from coming along and recovering the memory. How could plotters, for example, be sure that a captured Sirhan would continue to forget about the people who purportedly hypnotized him? How could they be certain he would not give evidence to the authorities in return for immunity?

It should come no surprise, then, that California courts have roundly rejected Brown’s “hypnotized assassin” theory.

Pease loves the idea of hypnotized patsies:

Let's start with Tyler Robinson, the person who shot Charlie Kirk. (Clicking on the tweet below will take you to the source.)

And of course, Kirk was killed by Israel:

A hypnotized patsy is her default position:

Perhaps Mark David Chapman, who shot John Lennon, was also a hypnotized patsy:

And Luigi Mangione:

And Arthur Bremer, the man who shot George Wallace:

And the Lockerbie bomber:

And Jared Loughner, who shot and wounded Gabby Giffords in 2011:

And Robert Card, who killed 18 people in a shooting spree in Lewiston, Maine in 2023:

Gee, who wasn't mind-controlled?

Pease also believes that there is more evidence the Mossad killed RFK than JFK:

But if the Mossad was involved in the JFK assassination, it was only at a low level:

Now you know -- the "CIA may run the Mossad." I always thought it was the other way around.

And Israel has been "blackmailing leaders for DECADES."

And the CIA has also been doing some blackmailing:

Lisa Pease is fast becoming a fan of Candace Owens, an outright antisemite.

Of course, there is the ultimate mind control operation:

This chapter is about the manipulation of the mind, and not only Sirhan’s. There is a far more insidious and invisible mind control operation at work in this case that continues to this day. That operation is a war for the public’s mind on this case, on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and other matters.

It is hard to believe that Lisa Pease is going to testify before Congress. And guess what? No Congressperson will cross-examine her, and they will thank her for being brave and for telling the American people the truth.

It's embarrassing and it's sickening.
