> the FBI were allegedly complicit in DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks on the websites of several Iceland government institutions. The FBI had then approached Icelandic authorities, promising to assist them in preventing any future such attacks What's really stunning that this statement does not seem like just a wildly crazy accusation.

I'm a Canadian and the CIA has literally kidnapped innocent people off the streets of my city and tortured them to insanity, it's far from the worst that could happen.

    MKULTRA's work in collaboration with a McGill researcher, in which they put psychiatry patients into a coma against their consents and tortured them : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_experiments https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_experiments

      This is an interesting small documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_PXI5Ba1Ak https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_PXI5Ba1Ak Not sure how true it all is.

        It's very difficult to know. Weirdly, while the CIA released a lot of the data about général MKULTRA, no data about the Montréal operations were released. There are certainly even more facets to the program we don't know about.

        There are sources in the description. It seems legit: https://www.cbc.ca/archives/topic/the-duplessis-orphans https://www.cbc.ca/archives/topic/the-duplessis-orphans What I've read so far is horrible :(

        Oh, the Duplessis Orphans are a completely separate and just as tragic catastrophe of Quebec history :( That said, yes we do actually know about the MKULTRA Montreal Programme, because of testimonies. We just don't know what more there was, and there is certainly more.

        If you wanted to know, the CIA decided in 1973 to burn all documents about MKULTRA, fearing Watergate would lead to the Church Committee. One cache of documents had been incorrectly stored, which later came to light giving us all we are certain of about the project.

      That's crazy, I never heard about that program. The CIA did a decent cover-up after the fact.
      - sudosysgen 5y ago
        An outstanding cover-up. They convinced McGill and the Canadian government to completely shut up and not a single document relating to their actions in Montreal leaked. We don't even know the half of it.
