Update on Belita Adair and Her Musical Project Satanic Corpse(edited on 5/19/11)

The previous post went into detail about Belita Adair, who was a psychic test subject studied by parapsychologist Andrija Pujarich in the military and CIA-sponsored MK Ultra Project. Since that post was published, I received an email from Belita which is a testimony to the exploitation that so many MK Ultra subjects have been through, treatment that has resulted in both physical and psychological harm for untold numbers. An informative article from Slate.com details how torture techniques employed in Guantanamo Bay were originally developed when CIA-funded doctors experimented on unconsenting American citizens via the use of forcible lobotomies, electroshock drugging, sleep deprivation and many other methods. Many MK Ultra subjects were subsequently unable to perform basic activities such as dressing themselves or using a toilet. Although some of their family members received a settlement, there is no way to gauge how many people's lives were ruined by the project given the fact that CIA director Richard Helms ordered all MK Ultra files destroyed in 1973. Much of what Belita mentions here can be verified in other places, specifically the forced drugging of children which is covered at length in part 7 of the stunning Human Resources documentary. Belita's letter begins after the jump.

Dear Sierra Peterson---I appreciate you writing and bringing to light the subject of those who were psychic test subjects,you really explained what I went through in a clear manner,I was just documenting the painful events I went through but you wrote it so very well...here are some other thoughts about it,that I want to share with you,and feel free to share them also if you see anything that may be important to this. There have been residual effects of the hell Andrija put myself and my family through,some very physical,it is just plain hard to function after all the stuff done to just about crush my psyce..but another underlining problem is also present, due simply in the harm caused by him lying to us,making money from my work and not ensuring I had some way to make a basic living while dedicating so much time to being a research "animal"..he blamed his fanatic wanting to keep everything I did "quiet" due to the hurt he suffered that Uri Geller left him and the research after he wrote a book on him,rocketing Uri to fame,so he did not want me to do the same to him..you are right,he must have had selfish motives..I remember when the ghost writer for Uri's own bio came over for dinner(which they made my sister cook for them) I had to stay hidden upstairs because he did not want the writer to maybe write a book on me...he hated me to play the piano saying music was a waste,I was to use all my gifts for science...hell yeah,the atomic numbers he got out of me while I was channeling,I actually heard him on the phone selling the formula for some kind of bomb...he was paranoid at that..thinking the government was out to get him,thinking I was going to be kidnapped,scaring my Mom about it...the Ossining home that housed the Faraday cage..was destroyed totally in a fire that he blamed on the government...and all the transcripts I believe went with it...all I had was the one that he sent...he sent it to my Mom when we were hesitating about going to London for more research...to show how important the "plan"was. yeah sure....this millionaire banking mogul,head of the bank of England was financing him for that,and I guess he needed to show a "subject"which was me to get all the monies he needed..When I was so thin and sick in Ossining I remember trying around midnight after exausting trance sessions all day , to make myself a little bread and cheese sandwich because I felt so weak,and Andrija pulled me out of the kitchen and stopped me from eating because he had an emergency need for more atomic numbers,so there I was again in the cage,hungry,tired and the session lasted till the morning hours,he was obssessive. I wake up at night at times from nightmares that I am still in the Faraday cage being asked for information. After every session he would get on the phone to someone Canada I overheard him giving the information that I just channeled.He then would have his Secretery laboriously transcribe the audio as fast as she could at his demands.I recently found an article online that stated the sessions were kept at 30 minutes in the cage for safety reasons because of the lack of air,the sessions were always at least 2 hours and beyond. .I remembered another thing about the tests done in the Faraday cage,each time when I was placed in the trance position which was laying down on pillows on the floor of the cage with Andrija behind my head sitting on a pillow,and he would rub my scalp with some consistant pressure and make me count backward from my age to 0 then press his finger on the middle of my forehead(Chakra 3rd eye area),I came across an article on Uri Gellers site,and it goes into the fact that Andrija used a very toxic mushroom Amanita Muscaria in the Stargate part of his research to induce a more active psychic state in the subjects that were in the cage,the compound about the size of a pinhead he would rub into the scalp of the subjects,it even states in the article that Uri could have unknowingly been given the mushroom by him,and I sort of put the two together,the dizzyness after each session and lightheaded feeling..confusion,depression not normal to me experienced after the sessions etc,of course the lack of air and electro magnetic stuff he had going on caused alot of that..but now I really am thinking he was not rubbing and rubbing my head and scalp just to mind link with me:-( 100% I feel what Andrija did by wanting all of my work kept quiet ruined my chance to get respect and a name which in turn,made for my bleek future...a "name" in the paranormal field would of translated into seminars,more tv work,more music concerts which would have = me-- making a living-- at what I work hard at and do to the best of my abilty.It was like,24/7 doing the research work,and then...thrown out into the real world...well,time to support myself,only catch...I am not qualified for anything else but what I spent my time doing,it is a cruel turn.I was trashed,my music was trashed,my whole life was trashed..because no-one will listen..to a unknown person..that is a fact...and if I could..I would post this on a sign for all the world to see..my pain,I suffer because I am only human...and I cannot undo what was done....in the transcripts(the pages I have uploaded on facebook, even the spirits I channeled were lied to,they asked.I live now in utter poverty,our house(I live with my sister Tania) has no heat in winter and when the temps are the triple digits,no a/c ,this is a place where mostly immigrants from central america live,crowded houses and shanty homes built in the back of all the houses,with many families crowded into these small homes...it is not safe,my Sister contracted an almost deadly case of Shigella from the dirty water hitting our tap water system last April,she was taken to an indigent hospital where she was lucky to have been given many antibiotics that saved her. My one wish is that we could move to a safe home,but with no money that is impossible right now.
Sincerely and in Friendship,
Belita Adair
Hail Satan--Rise Up Against Abuse!--The Left Hand Path Holds A Curse To Those Who Mistreat The Children of Darkness--My Life And My Music Are Sacred

Belita is a very talented musician and I would go out of my way to purchase her albums even without knowing anything of her situation. Here is a link to donate. The latest album is a free download but all donations keep her afloat and producing more music for all to enjoy. If you like black metal at all then listen to this track the whole way through because it's a slowly unraveling narrative. It's not my intention to sound like a commercial but her musical project, Satanic Corpse, really is that good.

Here, also, is a talk Belita gave on the principles of Satanism, which I'm including
for the purpose of further ingratiating myself with the anti-New World Order crowd. ;)

Occultism and its Relationship to New World Order Resistance

I stumbled across this documentary about Belita Adair and her role as a subject of MK Ultra experiments while browsing through black metal blogs and was instantly fascinated. I took the time to transcribe the most relevant parts because I have a hard time absorbing auditory information and wanted to return to it at a later date. So here is an extract of those parts of the documentary which pertain to the subjects covered on this blog. It was necessary to make minor grammatical corrections in a few places to clarify otherwise confusing sentence structures:


"Belita started to play classical and medieval piano compositions after being visited by a large, dark horned presence at the age of three. Soon after, she would sing and speak in ancient and modern languages in a spirit possessed trance with different voices coming through her. Belita was a psychic test subject, studied by noted parapsychologist Dr. Andrija Pujarich at the Stanfor University Paranormal Research Department and also at UCLA by Thelma Moss. In 1977, Belita was studied by Pujarich in the secret Farraday cage in Ossining, New York. While she was in a trance state, Pujarich brought Belita to a nearly lifeless state due to the lack of air in the cage. These sessions were taped by Pujarich and turned into top secret transcripts. The information Belita spoke of during her trance included Atomic numbers and Sound Wave to Atom theories and formulas. During the same year, Belita was presented by Pujarich to do private, invitation only channeling sessions in London, England. He wanted for all this to remain stealth and for Belita to remain a well hidden secret. He said there was a threat that Belita was a target of kidnapping by all the governments wanting this covert information. From the strain of the tests, Belita became very ill and lost so much weight that her condition was life-threatening. In the mid 1980s, she was diagnosed with an illness called Lupus and by February 2006 she was in a near death state with her
body rotting and blue. But somehow Belita came back to life. In the latter half of 2006, she created her musical project Satanic Corpse. Belita is a follower of the dark Left Hand Path and a Satanist."

Incidentally,many other subjects of the MK Ultra Project have discussed having been confined to Farraday cages, so this part of Belita's story can be confirmed elsewhere. The documentary brought up a few issues for me, namely the ethical/religious motivations of MK Ultra researchers, which led into a series of questions regarding the New World Order and its primarily Christian resistance movement. To begin with, it is likely that most people can agree on the basics: performing oxygen deprivation experiments on a small child is flat out wrong because of the threat of permanent brain damage and death. This should be evident to any reasonable person, although unfortunately it probably isn't for some who only see the mention of demonic possession and either laugh or think of Belita as the next Aleister Crowley with reverence and no thought to the damage inflicted on her by unscrupulous researchers. However, there is a growing number of people who realize that child abuse is, and always has been, an intrinsic part of the MK Ultra experiments in mind control and paranormal research. Where I part ways with this crowd is in the issue of occultism itself, which I think is a valid academic subject worthy of scientific research in its own right. But not for a minute would I trust the CIA or any other covert organization that has been involved in the project to conduct these experiments in en ethical way, given their history of destroying people's minds and bodies without so much as informed consent.

So although I'm extremely appreciative of the recent negative attention the MK Ultra issue has been receiving, I'm also somewhat skeptical as to the motives of said critics as well as those aspects of the project they've chosen to focus on. Most of this criticism is from a fundamentalist Christian viewpoint which objects to the use of occult symbolism, much which is derived from polytheism, which is a bit confusing to me since virtually all of Christian iconography can be traced to polytheistic cultures. I've covered this subject at length elsewhere, although scholars like Acharya S are far better versed in the subject than myself. Interested parties should refer to their research instead of my own as source material. So, to restate the basic point for those who missed earlier posts, what I take issue with is human rights abuses, not the study of occultism, which can be quite beneficial to society depending on the way it is handled. As for the issue of demonic possession, or the more commonly occurring astral parasites, I tend to believe that this is a very real phenomenon whose prevalence could be markedly reduced if occultism was less vilified by fundamentalists, since a lesser number of people would be attracted to unethical occult practitioners like Crowley if they weren't rebelling against hysterical Christian dogma in the first place. In other cases, genuinely benevolent forces may be mistaken for demons simply because their image doesn't conform to that of Judeochristian mythology.

Personally, I can't identify myself with any one religion, although neopaganism is probably the closest fit because it leaves the most room for interpretation and combination of varying traditions. However, like many people I can find much to be inspired by in particular aspects of each tradition, whether a shamanistic indigenous ceremony or a hugely centralized monotheistic religion like Christianity. Even Islam, by far the most repressive religion in the modern world, is rooted in a tradition of mysticism through the Sufism of the whirling dervishes. What unifies all of these cultures is the esoteric interpretation of symbolism found in occult studies, as well as the practical application of those ideas in occultism's trashy cousin, paranormal research. It is fascinating that traditions of Christian mysticism hold many parallels with exploration of the paranormal, including spirit possession, astral journeying, telepathy and precognition. Unfortunately, these traditions have largely been suppressed by church orthodoxy which regards submission to church hierarchy to be a precondition of revelation. What makes these issues tricky to deal with is the fact that pantheistic mysticism, including Christian esotericism, has been preserved and reinvigorated by mystery schools such as Freemasonry, groups that have a vested interest in securing geopolitical centralization. This elite version of pantheism is quite different than that of the autonomous groups and individuals who make up the vast majority of the modern neopagan movement, so it is important to differentiate between the two even though there is surely a certain amount of overlap. Failure to do so means invalidating the spiritual traditions of not only esoteric Christianity but thousands of other cultures as well, since mysticism and exploration into the paranormal is a tradition that simply cannot be owned by Freemasonry or other facets of the global power structure.

One of my first religious experiences happened while viewing the artwork in the Faeries and Gnomes books by Brian Froud. Spirituality has always been central to the way I interact with the world, which exists (in my mind anyways) not only in fundamentalist terms of good vs evil but also as a palate of infinite colors, where any and all beings intermingle and coalesce in the ether just outside the confines of our perception. Froud's faeries gave shape to this nebulous community of beings, who were both outside of my grasp enough to elude capture and accessible enough to have human flaws and desires. What made them beautiful was that I could relate to them. They were "human" and most did not demand obedience, merely requiring a mostly unnoticed coexistence.

The God of my Christian relatives, on the other hand, did demand obedience and to what end? Most of my God-fearing relatives were divorced, addicted to drugs, cheating on their spouses, abusing their children or similar. The faeries, on the other hand, promised no salvation and neither did they deny it. I liked them better than Jehovah back then and I still do today. However, there are beings in the faerie universe which closely approximate the Christian concept of angels and demons and recent experiences have brought me even closer to believing in these beings. Yet Western civilization's monotheistic paradigm has been strictly limited to cycles of cultural dominance and forcible conversion, actions that time has shown lead only to further warfare and societal degradation. Could it be that we may, in fact, have something to learn from earlier and comparatively less chaotic civilizations such as polytheistic indigenous tribes, the mythological remnants of which can be found in Froud's faeries? Make no mistake: these cultures were not perfect and many of them were outright cannibalistic. Clearly, these are not practices that any contemporary civilization would wish to emulate. Yet many other tribes managed to formulate a relatively non-hierarchical society in which resources were equitably distributed in a fashion quite foreign to the present world's democratic societies. Could Western civilization's bloody extermination of these cultures have set up a karmic cycle that relegates us to an existence of warfare and inevitable reverse colonization? Considering all the technological achievements in recent centuries, the thought is disturbing, but it also allows for a potential solution by way of restoring those cultures through respect to varied spiritual traditions, complementing and not opposing those of Abrahamic faiths. This approach may not sit well with many in the anti-New World Order crowd, who see Christian supremacy as the only solution to global governance and its accompanying One World religion.

But recent findings in the scientific community have established that the need to give respect to indigenous polytheistic cultures is one that is not exclusively metaphysical, instead being rooted in very practical concerns that affect every one of us. Foremost among these discoveries
is the knowledge that industrial farming methods have led to a loss of genetic diversity in the environments where they are practiced, meaning that people are increasingly dependent on pesticides because of the way that parasitic species can take over in an imbalanced ecology. In many places of the world, indigenous communities have an encyclopedic knowledge of their bioregion, yet pharmaceutical companies are rushing in to patent individual plants without consulting local tribes or considering the long lasting consequences of species collapse. The loss of topsoil, as well as the almost completely emptied aquifers, natural resources whose destruction would have catastrophic consequences, have also been sped along by wasteful and environmentally toxic farming practices. In recent decades, an ecologically sustainable system called permaculture has integrated knowledge from a wide variety of scientific disciplines to confirm that hundreds of different indigenous communities created intelligent designs for human settlements, designs that academically trained scientists are still learning from today. Indigenous practices of sustainable horticulture and city design have since been successfully combined with the appropriate use of technology to form resilient permaculture communities that could serve as a model for future human settlements. Beyond the scientific, many indigenous communities believed in animism, the idea that living things are imbued with spirit, and that the spirits of plants can teach the shamans of those communities about how they can be used medicinally and otherwise. Here is an amusing video by herbalist Susun Weed that clearly illustrates this point.


So how does all this information tie into New World Order resistance and MK Ultra research? Well, what it indicates is that, if social dissent against political centralization has any hope at being successful, there is a need to let go of the idea of jealous gods and religious supremacy, since fundamentalism of this variety is what would be used to justify the establishment of massively coordinated "peace keeping" forces to begin with. Additionally, techniques of indigenous permaculture can be used to avert the ecological catastrophes that would result in the reductions to standards of living recommended by the United Nations for global populations. A popular movement that values decentralized religious freedom is different than a One World religion in which religious freedom is suppressed in favor of a homogenized spirituality used to enforce the dominant paradigm. In the area of occult symbolism, typically occurring in the media, that means losing the hysteria about masks, pentagrams, enlightenment, and other facets of cultures differing from Judeochristianity. A more reasonable approach would be to focus on the values of the organizations behind these symbols, since any other approach risks alienating huge numbers of people who might otherwise be sympathetic to the agenda being criticized. For example, when the all-seeing eye is employed in the logo of Homeland Security, discussion about the surveillance state may be more effective than condemning Buddhism and the New Age movement, because many people who identify with these cultures may also see huge problems with the policies being promoted by the global establishment. Unfortunately, the term "controlled opposition" often conjures the idea of people who are willing agents of the state, perhaps paid off by intelligence agencies or other nefarious groups. But I think what happens more often is that people become unwitting collaborators with elite agendas, and their unintentionally destructive ideas are allowed to proliferate specifically because, again, those ideas reinforce the values of the dominant paradigm. So, ironically, what may be needed to counter the rise of a One World religion, as well as centralization in other areas, is respect for spiritual and cultural diversity, a respect that need not be policed by a global authority.

update to dream section

This is just a minor one but it was so vivid I have to write it down before it fades:
Last night, the night before a full moon in Scorpio, I dreamed I was freighthopping through industrial areas that were abandoned except for a heavy military presence. I had thought that the train I was on was destined for a remote grainery but, to my surprise, we pulled into a warehouse setting crowded with people. It turned out to be a hospital and there was a massive medical team in charge of forcibly administering vaccinations. I got off the train because it was being searched and ended up in the line for vaccinations since that's where everyone was being funneled. A lot of the people around me appeared to be sick. A nurse came up to me and explained the way the procedure would work, that I would need to receive an injection and then be quarantined inside the lower floors of the hospital. I informed her that I would be opting out of the vaccination and she was not having that. As the line continued moving forward I looked around me and saw there was a door to my right and the guards outside were busy talking. I ran outside and resorted to a lucid dreaming technique that has worked in almost every nightmare I've had in recent times. I started flying, which was a wonderful feeling because I was never able to do this before, meaning that I was just trapped inside the nightmare, seemingly without end. As I did so the guards seemed to become less aware of me right away. Actually, the dream itself was less aware. Beneath me was the receding empty shell of an endlessly sprawling city, which looked as if it had recently been the target of heavy bombing. At this point I woke up suddenly, at around 3 AM, and have been unable to go back to sleep since.

Ex-CIA Agent Sentenced to Prison For Sex Assault on Drugged Muslim Woman

The only thing unusual about this story is the fact that it ended up in the news. Rape and sexual assault are cornerstones of CIA interrogation procedures and have been so for decades. Hopefully Americans will wake up to the fact that the horrific procedures found in Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib are still occurring but the federal government has, for all intents and purposes, given military and private contractors immunity from legal prosecution. So it's nice to see the occasional exception to that policy.

via:ABC News
Andrew Warren, a former CIA station chief in Algeria, has been sentenced to more than five years in federal prison for drugging and raping a Muslim woman in Algiers, and for illegally possessing a firearm while under the influence of cocaine....Warren, 43, had thought he would get away with the offense because of diplomatic immunity and the victim's fear of reporting the crime. Huvelle did not, however, sentence Warren to the maximum term of ten years in prison.

Warren pleaded guilty to the charges last June, admitting that he had engaged in abusive sexual contact with a woman he had rendered unconscious on U.S. Embassy property on February 17, 2008. He also admitted possessing a handgun during a crack-fueled episode in a Virginia hotel room in April 2010.

...According to an affidavit filed by the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, two women in separate incidents alleged that Warren gave them drinks that caused them to pass out and then sexually assaulted them at his Algerian apartment while they were in a helpless unconscious or semi-conscious state.


U.S. officials also said that a search of Warren's residence uncovered many tapes of Warren engaged in sex with women, including at least one tape that shows a woman in a semi-conscious state. The rest of the article can be read here:

Secret FBI, CIA Documents, Sex Videos Found At Egypt’s Terror Police HQ

source:Gizmodo
This mountain of shredded paper taking over several rooms was found inside the Egyptian Secret Police’s headquarters in Cairo on March 5, when hundreds of angry people invaded it. They called this day their Bastille Day.

An enraged population liberated prisoners still in their isolation cells, no larger than phone booths. In the process, they found torture devices, mountains of shredded documents, dozens of computers stripped from their hard drives and a stash of sex video tapes showing famous people—from actors to politicians, both Egyptians and from other countries. The videos were recorded by the secret police in hotel rooms. Nobody knows who stars in them, but I’m sure the world will know about it very soon:


more details from Egyptian chronicles:
This is an inside tour for the capital of hell , first of all the building itself is so huge , too damn huge and it includes many branches ,hospital, officers’ hostel , training and cells underground !! It is like the SS own City Stars !! A historical trivial fact the capital of hell building was designed by Dr. Farouk Al-Gohary of Ain Shams university. His page in Marefara , our own Arabic Wikipedia is negative. According to our friends who went and are still there the building is quite luxurious. We do not exactly how may underground floors are there , some speak about 3 , other speak about 8 !!

Our friends found torture devices , sex films made for famous personalities "this is so Safwat Al Sherif !!" and also Sony PlayStation !! They also found weapons and some CSF officer who was so scared and told them that he was innocent. The officer was handed to the army.
The underground prison was hard to find at first but the people found them. Some were speaking about screams from the underground prison. The cells were found , some people say they were locked electronically but they were opened. The detainees were released after being years in detention , one of them has been released there for 14 years !!!!!!!!!!! The detainees were allegedly blindfold and stayed in small cell without light !!!!!!!!!! Even the military police soldiers and officers were touched.

...An office , a bed room with a bed for two , pink bathrobe , marble bathroom and finest salons for meetings from our own budget , from our own taxes !!
I read a fearful thing online that the citizens found a room full of toys and photos for kids being tortured :(
The documents , files and reports are exposing everybody in the country.
The journalists of course took some scans "and some files" about VIPs including Ex-President Mubarak himself and his activities along with his wife Suzanne Thabet.

Human Resources: The Documentary

Human Resources is a masterpiece that should be required viewing for anyone interested in the subject of social conditioning. The documentary is basically about how mechanistic philosophy set the stage for the acceptance of human beings as expendable resources for a hierarchical society, tracing the concept's modern day origins to the experiments of US-based social scientists on to its application in education, public relations, the media and even the coercive brainwashing experiments of the CIA.

The first half is more theoretical, although some practical examples are cited as well, and the second half largely details personal incidents of human experimentation, such as the forcible drugging of children that was done under the CIA's MK Ultra program. This is definitely the mind control movie for skeptics, as it contains interviews with academic luminaries such as Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky, both brilliant scholars who nonetheless would probably want nothing to do with the outer fringes of this area of research. The second half of this movie in particular may be quite difficult to watch but doing so is valuable and necessary in order to understand the insidious framework behind much of what passes for neutral policy-making. The producers of Human Resources have generously chosen to make the entire documentary available for free on youtube so I will only post the first part here as it is worth viewing on a full screen.

minor edit to Occult Symbolism in the Media...

Here is a minor change to the Occult Symbolism post, as the previous write-up gave a somewhat incomplete rundown of the Enuff Znuff video:

...I do hope the girl in this video wasn't exploited during the video's production although of course it's impossible to tell without first hand information. It can be challenging to discern whether or not something of this nature has occurred but ultimately it's only the business of the performer if that information isn't on display. And in many cases of occult symbolism saturated media, evidence of exploitation is minimal at best. Regardless, it's important to acknowledge that apparently MK'ed performers aren't just meat sacs devoid of artistic talent. Because dehumanization can occur in many forms, whether through managers literally pimping underage, emotionally vulnerable celebs or, on the "opposite" side of the spectrum, from critics who can only see a victim or corrupter when looking at someone whose public persona strays from impeccable moral standards. Realistically, some celebrities really are victimized, but at the same time the continuum of experience in the culture industry will vary from horrific to benign. So if some of this analysis seems a bit flippant, it's only because I relate to the position many of these stars have found themselves in and so hesitate to throw the victim word around when it may be unwarranted, because the inaccurate *mind-controlled sex slave*! label has been placed on me a couple times, much to my confusion and amusement. Assuredly, sure some will think it's horrible to laugh about these things but without a sense of humor it would be impossible to stay engaged with such disturbing subject matter. I will draw the line at making other, seemingly victimized people the target/scapegoat of those jokes.


Here is an an Ozzy Osbourne video that shows a clear example of what I would consider to be blatant exploitation, since it employs the use of a child mouthing sexually explicit lyrics in a provocative way. It's evident that this was something stage-managed by adults which seems really off to me since this girl is just too young to be making an informed decision about whether or not she wants to place herself in the spotlight. The video contains simulated drowning, portrayals of extreme grief and the suggestion of sexual trauma, which could all be way too much for a small child to absorb. There is also an eye of horus and a ballerina, the image of which is another traditional MK Ultra programming theme. So I really don't know what to make of this because, despite the image presented here, Ozzy comes off to me as somebody who is fairly toothless even though he's made some irresponsible decisions. It's a well known secret that his wife is in control of their marriage, even effectively managing the mammoth Ozzfest venture, so the apparent misogyny in the video becomes more than a little ridiculous in light of this information. It could be that industry people around him were responsible for implanting MK Ultra-related imagery and arranging the kiddie porn lite shot at the end of the song. At least that's what I hope. I also hope sobriety has helped Ozzy to make better decisions about his own children. As always, it's hard to know what is really going on but I can't see how someone who wrote the best anti-war song of all time could be a completely unethical person. War Pigs is probably my biggest weakness when it comes to Christian fire and brimstone moralizing!
