Wow Simon, the adds start sooner and sooner. Interesting strategy. Add is done before one really sat down to watch the video
We all know what the CIA is and it’s not nice.
This right here👆🏻
Wow Don't you have any better sponsors than one presenting wars as ""fun""?
Let me fix that title for you. "The Craziest CIA Projects, That we know of so far."
These are the "main" proven conspiracy lines that might be new to normies. There's plenty we know about that they've been busted doing that are open papers, but you look like a complete loonie if you say "look, they've been purposely poisoning us and releasing bioweapons on us."
Lol right! "Craziest CIA projects that they willingly shared", so u can just imagine the stuff that isn't allowed to be shared. It's scary to even think about tbh.
💯 Well said... 😏
@@yaboi9349perfect reason why U.S. citizens should not give up their guns.
Thank you Homer.
CIA - "Sure we did bad stuff in the 50s, 60s, 70s,80, and 90s. But were are only doing good stuff now. Trust me bro"
You want to know the real scary part? Some people actually do.
I love how when the CIA were told "No" about their plans to stage mass shootings of their own citizens, like a naughty child, they didn't take the no as a sign they had gone too far, instead they thought "Mummy said no, we'll wait and ask Daddy later"...
We just need to kill Mummy first!
Big Brother enters the room
@@pennywise___ dayum
To be fair, Northwood was the brain child of the Generals and not "spooks."
And yes... the Department of Defense took that "No" very personally....
But would never do the same thing for 9/11... That's just a crazy conspiracy..
I think that's the most insane part of the Castro assassination attempts. The fact that he outlived everyone that tried to kill him.
He Rasputined them all.
And he only died when Trump elected el presidente of unidos estados of america. With a smirk.
Selling your soul will do that
@@low_vibrationreally? Is that why Mitch McConnell and Henry Kissinger are still alive?
I can't believe that they had over 600 cracks at killing him and failed utterly...What a bunch of incompetent morons....🤣🤣🤣
On the scale of evil to weird, I'll take weird any day.
Weird gave us cartoon images of people with exploding cigars, evil gave us MK Ultra. I concur.
Can't solve weird with a shotgun though.
@@paulputter8383 tell that to Ash from Evil Dead
Sadly, weird is the first stage of evil. Once they find out what every possible outcome is and can be, it becomes applied to a militarized purpose.
@@aceundead4750he also had a chainsaw for close up evil
The cia succeeded only in making Castro seem like a rlly calm guy
The Stargate Project was featured in the 2004 book and 2009 film, both titled The Men Who Stare at Goats, although neither mentions it by name.
I saw The Men Who Stare at Goats. It was fun.
Big fan of Jon Ronson. The Men Who Stare at Goats is one of his best.
@@felicitybywater8012 Yeah, it was! My favorite part was Ewan McGregor, playing some character whose name I don't remember, declaring he wanted to be a Jedi. 😅 Then there was George Clooney killing goats just by staring at them (thus the title) and a hilarious final scene that I won't spoil for anyone who wants to see the movie. I definitely recommend it.

One CIA project "the Finders" was pretty silly. The best part was local police departments busting them, and then the FBI burying it for 50 years. Worth a look into.
Not that silly when it involved international child sex trafficking
Never in my life did i post something like this but i think it is finaly time.
Your comment sounds like a psyop. Go away CIA.
That felt weird ngl
Yes. This The Finders a debunked conspiracy theory with no evidence like the satanic theories of the 80s and the pizzagate and Qanon shit. Conservatives selfprojecting. The Finders was s cult like so many crazy cults in US.
@@jaklegend3 I was blasting the CIA, why would that be a psyop, when I'm calling attention to how evil they are? I hate the federal agencies running this country.
@@jaklegend3right lmao, the writing just screams undercover cop selling drugs vibes😂
Ted Kaziinski was a victim of MK Ultra so I guess it kind of worked.
Seems like it. Not to mention Charles Manson who was also a victim of mkultra and so many others. Still to this day, not only did it obviously work, it's still working. Mass shooters, bombers, these lone wolf people are not lone wolves acting on their own. From my experience and observation it also leads back to the CIA and military.
So was Manson
Lee Harvey Oswald too?
Sirhan sirhan, John Wilkes Booth, all mk ultra
And don't forget the Jim Jones was CIA. It's like social experiments that they do they get these cult leaders to see how they can pull people into these cults and then get them to do whatever they want
It absolutely kills me that you can tell us these crazy Cia shit but still be a massive skeptic when it comes to conspiracy theories involving the US government.
Yes it boggles my mind how people don't understand that the higher security clearances that these people have means that they have no oversight and no accountability so absolute power corrupts absolutely
There's definitive proof that these things actually happened. Modern US government conspiracy theories are unproven. Perfectly consistent.
I love American Dad! It doesn't get enough love.
The star gate segment reminds me of the movie The Men Who Stare at Goats. Great flick.
CIA v. Castro draws up images of Wile E. Coyote v. Roadrunner in my mind.
I find it amazing that in the fall of 1965, the Navy was giving Marine Recruits a daily drug dose of a drug at Parris Island, taking nightly blood samples from those recruits, that were supposedly to reduce colds in those recruits, but nothing shows in those recruits military records about any such tests.
What drugs did they dose them with
They're still doing crazy stuff, they just learned to keep the various projects at a low profile budgetwise. But every once in a while something surfaces that let's on ever so slightly at the magnitude of some of these projects. Like how the Hubble telescope is build using an auxillary telescope frame donated to NASA by CIA because it had become obsolete and they had gotten themselves a better one.
Wait what!?! The hubble telescope was surplus from the CIA?! WHY DO THEY NEED THAT
@@douggaudiosi14 Which way do you think they were looking...
@@douggaudiosi14 He's misremembering the facts. NASA got donated 2 mirrors from the National Reconnaissance Office back in 2012. They have a mission planned with those but it wasn't first priority so hasn't launched yet that I'm aware. NASA is not allowed to point them at the earth, it would reveal too much, they are being repurposed to act like other Hubbles.
On a scale of ambitious mess I think Facebook is obviously the CIA’s masterpiece
DARPA called it lifelog and was "shut down" the year facebook released.
Yes I like the fictional story that they came up within the movie😂
Not Twitter?
The Guatamala story is most impressive - the CIA managed to hatch a plan and successfully saw to it.
Most of their plans are successful. We just don't hear about them. Do you think the wealthiest nations most highly paid and trained agency is incompetent? Your out of your mind
@@douggaudiosi14 yes. Famously so.
@@cwang6951underestimating enemies is way worse than fear mongering…
CIA stupid is funny rhetoric, but whether plan is successful or not they still occur and can have sweeping effects. Hell imagine all the things they’ve played a part in without us knowjng
Of course the best way to hide results (of ESP/etc) would be to publicly claim that there weren't any and quietly bury the program.
That is entirely true, I haven't thought of that. Unfortunately I think it was a dud. With all the technology we have today surely the public would have some evidence
Can you make a video talking about the other side of the pond? The crazy missions of MI6 and MI5. I’m sure they did just as crazy stuff that the CIA did.
I remember the Russian psychic soldiers thing playing out on the news in the seventies. My Nana, a horoscope addict, was convinced the soviets would be dropping nukes on us by means of ESP. It seemed rather unlikely.
thing is, looking back at the cold war from our perspective it's pretty obvious that no one was actually going to use their nukes. but I will bet it was pretty fucking scary at the time, I was too young to know or understand it back then.
And your Nana would have been right if not the courage of one mid-level Soviet "political officer", who refused to turn the third and final key required to launch their submarine's nuclear missiles at the USA.
Oh, wait; No, never mind. That wasn't ESP...lol
Well, currently Russia seems to target its missiles and drones to "military targets" by using ESP. Perhaps they kept their super soldiers around.
@bipolarminddroppings There were some scary peaks in the seventies and eighties. Then they settled into the international disarmament slowdance for several years.
My great uncle was actually a “participant” If you can call it that, in a government experiment. He was in prison for manslaughter serving 15 years. They gave him the option to participate in experiments or serve out the rest of his time. He decided to participate. I don’t know what they did to him exactly but he got really messed up. He was blind in one eye, all of his teeth were gone so he wore dentures, his hair was patchy, and his fingernails didn’t go beyond any of the nail beds. I’m sure he had more things wrong with him because he died in the early 90’s in his 60’s.
The thought that for over 2 decades people believed in remote viewing is a good indicator of how effective the CIA’s employee screening process is 😂
In 2017, the same year Project Farsight started, the CIA declassified some 12 million pages of records revealing previously unknown details about the programs Project Sun Streak, Project Grillflame, and Project Stargate. They are easily accessible to anyone and you could possibly even come up with your own conclusion.
Whenever you are set that these people are a certain level of evil, they just push it to the next level, over and over again.
and they tend to lecture others on what to do and how to do it!
I like how the Castro ones had a point of basically, "what's an even sillier way we can try and blow him up?"
Yeah, that was some Wile E Coyote sh!+
Anyone who rants about modern conspiracy theorists being crazy hasn't read the history of the CIA
The fact they planned some false flag operations and drugged people doesn't really make lizard people, flat earth and an all powerful cabal of baby eating satanists more likely...
because a lot of modern conspiracy theorists are flatearthers and moon landing deniers, so it's not easy to find conspiracy theorists that make valid arguments
When I saw "project stargate" I was just like wait, what? I wonder if the original creators had heard the name somewhere or if it was just a coincidence.
Kinda crazy there's plans trying to utilize mass "events" like that dating back that far. Makes you think a bit, which is always a good thing
9/11 was an inside job.
Yes but what exactly would be the objective now
@@DeosPraetorian Ya not really sure on that, just made me think about it with how often we see headlines in the news
@@ElegantMessTechPC tbf some of that is because of news media focusing on it. The same thing happened with stories of train derailments.
@@DeosPraetorian They do them now to push gun control. It's all they talk about after every one they can politicize, they inflate the numbers drastically to push their agenda too.
Operation Stargate was an unqualified failure, but did give rise to one of George Clooney's, Jeff Daniel's, and Ewan McGregor's most underrated movie: "The Men Who Stare At Goats"
I LOVE the goofy-ass friggin' movie!
Cool! Thanks for that information; I love Jeff Daniels so I will definitely look into this movie. Btw have you seen “Escanaba in da Moonlight”?
@@melly1432 You're more than welcome. I made a mistake, though. It wasn't Jeff Daniels in "The Men Who Stare At Goats", it was Jeff Bridges. However, that movie you mentioned "Escanaba in da Moonlight" is on Tubi. Gonna check that out later. Thanks.
Chapter 4, Australia recently legalized the use of psychedelics for the treatment of mental health disorders.
I'm sure the Australian Health practitioners will take more care than the CIA.
Well, that's disturbing, considering how so many cult leaders use psychedelics on mentally fragile/traumatized people to more easily manipulate them.
There is promising research, as well as a large amount of anecdotal evidence, that DMT and psilocybin can help with death anxiety for terminal patients, PTSD, depression, anxiety.
@@jenniferj5324 Replication crisis, pretty much every "experiment" now a days has hacked p-values and shady methodology. There's recently been 2 or 3 scandals involving faked research from ivy universities, just as an example.
What is insane is that the CIA continues to exist. How has it never been discontinued. The extreme lack of ethics, morality, evilness and awfulness would have brought down any other organization.
Lmao they had the power to kill a US president and probably much much further , who’s going to disband them?
You should do a video about how the cia overthrew the Australian government in a political coup
Wait what lmao when
@@benjaminrowley 1975 they were directly involved with the dismissal of goth witlem
Formally created in 1947, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) grew out of the World War II Office of Strategic Services (OSS).

Check out the Finders
CIA failed killing Fidel Castro = Justin Trudeau 😂
Operation MkUltra: Two All LSD Patties, Cheese, Pickles, and Onions on a Sesame Seed Bun.
The last mission did create The Men Who Stare at Goats", though. Very amusing movie.
I laughed so hard when Simon’s voice cracked as her said “certainly”.😂🤣😂🤣
JFK was the last president we really had...
This is absolutely true. Every president these days are totally controlled by CIA. Elections manipulated and the candidates lives 100% dictated. Even down to the scandals, because we all know shameful and embarrassing secrets are great for blackmail.
The hypodermic pen thing was used in an early episode of Archer and its all I could think about during that story lol
As a follow-up to this video, perhaps you should do a video on what strange and immoral projects the KGB was up to during those years. 🤔🤷🏻♂️
They don't have FOIA in Russia, so most of those are still hidden away. The ones we are aware of, it's more like we suspect or are highly confident they did it, but we don't really know specifics.
@@QBCPerdition Which I wish more people realized. The US having FOIA and actually exposing its own mistakes and crimes after a number of years is a novel thing, as the rest of the world never expose their secrets if at all possible, but instead people take it as the US and the CIA being the only ones doing such things, with the rest of the world having no agency or evil actions hidden away.
That we know of......
Ironically, there seems to be a “no one needs to know” mentality at the top of so many stovepiped, classified programs.
The agents were dosing, high as hell.
I often wonder if the Caribbean, Central, and S. American countries were left alone... how much better off would they be today?
Better still if democracies were actively supported.
Probably not much better overall, as the issues and factions the CIA and others exploited already existed, they just shifted the balance of power during the time they were there. With power balances still swinging back and forth between violent groups of every ideology I doubt the current state would be much different.
The whole world
They would most likely be worse off or the same.
Castro has the world record of most assassination attempts survived
Shocked at the lack of the Acoustic Kitty
634 attempts.. you gotta be very incompetent, but bad people usually are.
That, or Fidel was a genius.
I highly doubt bad people are usually incompetent. You just rarely ever hear about the competent ones.
@@littlerave86 Of course there are competent ones, how else would we get all these endless problems.
@@iteerrex8166 Yeah, of course there are. But how many is just a guess, and that's where it seems our opinions divide, as I don't think most of the bad ones are incompetent, I think there's a bell-shaped distribution of competence within bad people, which makes most of them neither very competent, nor incompetent. And yes, the worst ones are the competent ones.
@@littlerave86 Agreed, it’s bell curved, but let’s not go into probability and stats. I just wana slap them lol
This was a great video my man
I remember people building bomb shelters in Florida. "doing anything of note" . Cuba got a shipment of Nukes.
Why hire qualified agents when you can hire nutjobs? - CIA
Not to mention dumping crack cocaine into the streets of inner city Los Angeles, followed by the Reagan drug war.
I visited Cuba in 2011 from the UK. Flew Gatwick to Havana, then travelled across the island for the following three weeks to Santiago de Cuba, taking an internal flight back to Havana. Fascinating place, beautiful countryside, from the Sierra Escambray Mountains to the old colonial architecture in Havana, the old American cars too. I stayed a few nights in the Hotel Ambos Mundos in Havana and visited the room where Hemingway lived for several years and wrote "For Whom the Bell Tolls". At the time I found it bizarre that people living in the self-proclaimed "land of the free" were not allowed to visit Cuba for tourism purposes, thanks to their own government preventing them from travelling there. Is this still the case?
Lol. There are many reasons for not allowing u.s dollars into cuba. 😅😅😅
@@gladlawson61 Are you happy for your government to have such control over where you are allowed to travel?
@@WoollyWanderers Nothing stops you from visiting, you just can't get their directly.
Obama lifted the ban on Americans going to Cuba. But Trump might have reversed that. Anyone else can visit freely.
@@dgoodwin619 Why?
Got to love Simon's cynicism 😂😂❤
This makes the CIA seem just like General Turgidson from Dr Strangelove
The "i" in CIA isn't its strong point
I bet Dr. Greer has some cool additions to this topic.
Fantastic !
No crap guy . You nailed it . Could you do a longer show about this topic please ? 🙏
I know myself there is at least 1 hour of material when you delve into individual case history of lets say .... charles manson . The unibomber . Ted kysinski .
MK Ultra alone can take 1 hour .
Its a good move brother .
I understand the economics of shorter video's these days and with the attention span shinking .
Thanks from Baltimore Maryland
The unibomber . Ted kysinski - Same individual... would you believe? charles manson,,, different individual lol
Oh boy. Are you gonna love two other of Simons 673 channels - Into The Shadows, where he covered MKUltra in some more detail, I think the video was around 20 minutes, and The Casual Criminalist, where he did a 1h video on Manson, and two 55 minute videos covering the *Unabomber (not Unibomber) Teddyboi. He's also made hundreds of other videos on other famous or infamous criminals, with the odd heist or prisonbreak story here and there. His single longest, non-compilation video is on John Wayne Gacy, at over three hours. My three (four, technically) favourite ones were on The Great Canadian Maple Syrup heist, Jailbreak! The International King of Escapes, and part one and two of the Jennings Eight.
Edit: I can't seem to find the MK Ultra video, maybe it was deleted, but Ill check in more detail in the coming days. You'll still love that channel as well.
Well, the channel Second Thought did a video on them. Though it is not very flattering and even got shadowbanned due to just how long the list of crimes is.
While Kennedy may have balked at Northwoods, he was pretty enthusiastic about Mongoose.
The heart attack gun that was shown to the public was interesting.
then there were "the men who stared at goats" and trying to use domestic cats as spies.
You'd think, if they tried putting salts on his shoes to make his beard fall out, they could have just put a needle on his shoe that when he steps in the shoes, castro would have gotten pricked with the same poison from the death pen
The bay of pigs was not a BBQ a rebel wanted to attend. Now I'll go heavy with French's mustard on my kransky rolls.
I wonder why you didn't include Project Mockingbird. A bit too close to home?
Having been raised in a military family amidst a backdrop of Western propaganda, I later came to the unsettling realization that our own side wasn't always on the right side of history, a truth that has only been further confirmed in my current role within the media industry. Chapter One came to fruition for 9/11.
Seeing the pictures, there is NO way Justin Trudeau isn't Castro's offspring...
Operations Northwoods sounds a lot like 9/11.
Careful Simon, careful what you say or you'll find out where Jimmy Hoffa is.
Jimmy Hoffa runs a coffee shop with Elvis Presley and Jim Morrison
My ESP abilities tell me that all these things are bad ideas. Oh wait, maybe this is just good old common sense!
Needed a palette cleanser after Joachim Kroll
He was broken by the Hyman
One other thing about insane ideas like remote viewing. For an agency like the CIA who is tasked with intelligence collection outside of the US itself. I like the idea that they are willing to explore methods beyond what would be considered normal. ESP and the like is a bit too far. But generally speaking, I want them to be thinking of odd and unusual ways that adversarial nations are working against the US.
Hopefully that agency hasn't also been politically weaponized by the current, embarrassingly incompetent administration
Considering some variation of psychic viewing and divination is pretty much an omnipresent idea across cultures it's not unreasonable to at least check up on it. The era of hard science gave them the ability to have certainty about it for the first time. At worst you waste some time & money on research. If such things turn out to be real you absolutely don't want to be behind your enemies in the R&D of it.
@@GeldUndKokaine-kc1hp That basically sums up my opinion to a degree. I think they might have gone a bit too far with some of the ESP stuff though.
At the very least though I feel the idea of "hey, my enemy is researching this, maybe I should see what its all about", is the kind of idea where erring on the side of caution is very warranted.
Redacted doesn’t count as declassified.
That failure to sign from jfk is what eventually made lee Harvey Oswald famous
…at least what we know about
I love the balanced delivery.
Castro has got a real strong look of Trudeau in that thumbnail
Do you think that if they had found evidence of ESP that they would tell anyone?
Hey, you read my mind !
Simon's lack of skepticism on the public results of the project is a perfect example of confirmation bias.
People would use ESP to find out that they had evidence of it.
That's why privaty funded research is important.
@@jenniferj5324 Not necessarily. What does the funding person or organization have to gain or lose if the research ends up supporting the point or not finding any evidence? Privately funded research is always suspect. So is publicly financed research, but in a different way. The trick is to find several sets of research, published in various journals, with different support, different research sites - preferably in different countries.
How is no one talking about the hilarious voice cracks
With friends like these who needs enemies
Simon and co, please do a video on Çatalhöyük (Catal Huyuk)
One big discovery from the magic powers experiment was that people fart when you pull there finger !! Ha Ha Ha
And we wonder why they hate us.
They got their comeuppance in the form of Ted Kaczynski! Did they learn their lesson??? Don't get your hopes up...
When you are paid to research something that you realize is hot garbage but you need to come up with reasons to continue the research, you will always find away; even for 23 years!
I heard about the cigar plot......unfortunately for the CIA it went up in smoke. 😄
The most astonshing yet unremaked thing...why was the Northwoods memo attached to the JFK assassination secretvrecords...
Fun fact lysergic acid diethelamyde (lsd) is destroyed when stored at a temp above 190 and below freezing. Ie it would do anything to lace a cigar other than lacing to tip you put I your mouth but still a weird one 😂 they just had allotta lsd at the time
Not crazy, but something interesting at least. Maybe dig up the entire story.
So here is the gist of it, India was developing nukes, and America wasn't happy and put the CIA on it. They used satellites to monitor places of interest. However, India successfully detonated the nuke, leaving the CIA operatives stumped. What India had done was something simple. They only carried out activities at night and kept an eye out for American satellites. As they would reach near the site in their orbit, everything was hidden and turned down to avoid detection. Yes, even the trucks had heavy almost tent-like fabric, that was hung from the back, which helped remove the tracks of tires and people off the sand. This was done to avoid any espionage or incident. India successfully tested the nuke once the satellites had moved away.
Don't forget the CIA project of using games like Conflict of Nations to crowd source the best possible way to overthrow governments!
Ooo I hope he talks about Guatemala in this
It's an ESP Gap!!!!
Makes "make America great again" hyper sinister huh. ?
5:55 OK, that's one.
Ahh JFK refused the CIAs plan for a false flag operation and shortly after oooops kennedy got assassinated. Has to be a pure coincidence😂😂😂😂
And one wonders why people believe in conspiracy theories...
Some say that Simon Whistler is actually a CIA operative & is known to them as.....
"SKEPTIC NUMBER ONE".! 😉
"With most of the key players in the story being long dead by this time, nothing ever came of that anger." Which is why if you tell the people still engaging in this behavior today that they're on the wrong side of history, they don't care. LOL They know they won't be around to face consequences. The past was the worst... as far as we know at this moment.
ha'ha' lmao you need way more than 18' plus minutes to list all of the company's odd off the loop shenanigans and antics
