!-HE MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT * PRESCRIPTION DRUG AND OPIOID ADDICTION (MAT- I pOOnl PROGRAlvl expanded access to buprenorphine for the treatment of opioid use disorder I (OUO¡ in Washington State. The expansion of this treatment option was to address the growing opioìd epidemic. ln 2015,2.5 million Americans had an OUD.1 Further, fatal drug overdoses have been on the rìse due to an increase ìn opioid deaths, and now overdose is the number one cause of accidental death, outpacìng car crashes and gun Tatalkies.2 ln August 2015, Washington State's Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) received a three-year MAT-PDOA grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administratron (SAMHSA). The Washington Stâte MAT- PDOA project implemented an evidence-based office-based opioid treatment with buprenorphìne (O8OT-B) model in three locatìons. One location is a large. urban hospital-based safety-net primary care cìinic in Seattle. The other two are opioid treatment programs (OTP) in Olympia and Hoquiam that serve predomìnately rurâl populations via telehealth. MAT-PDOA clinics treated 532 patients in t\¡/o years of operation and successfully achieved the lour goals established by the project: ìncrease MAT capacity, enhanCe ¡ntegrated care and retention, reduce substance use, and reduce adverse outcomes of opioid abuse. MAT-PDOA Project Goals ln the Year One report, lve described the progress of MAT-PDOA during the first year of implementation.ì This report describes the continued progress through the second year of the project (ending July 31, ¿O17). Accomplishments through year tv/o are: MAT-PDOA clinic sites enrolled 532 patients in MAT rvith No 1. 49% buprenorphine. 2. Fifty-one percent of enrolled patients rovere retained in treâtment for a Retained year or longer. ¡n treatmênt 3. Alcohol and drug use rates decreased six months after enrollment ìn one year or treatment. longer? 4. Adverse outcomes related to opioid use disorder, such as hospitalization and unemployment. were reduced six months after enrollment in treåtment.

No addit¡onal clinics were added in year tvvo. Training Staff in Evidence-Based MAT. Project sites hired and trained staff using grant funds in year one. All hired staff were trained on the evidence-based MAT models selected in year one.5 Nurse care managers (NCM) and progrâm managers were hired to assist healthcare providers wiih MAT service delivery. All but one project staff were retained through year two. One NCM at the GHC site resigned and was temporarily replaced by existing clinic staff due to difficulties recruiting qualified staff ¡n that rural community. During year two, all clinics hired one to two medical assistants to assist with MAT service delivery and increase patient capacity.

The HMC Adult Medicine Clinic had seven waivered6 physicians who could prescribe buprenorphine in year one. During year two, HMC facilitated two Drug Addiction Treatment Act (DATA) 2000 trainings which were mandated for all medical residents. ln total, the HMC system has 38 rvaivered physicians and trained 18 residents lvho can obtâ¡n the waiver upon medical licensure.

ln year one, ETS recruited one addiction psychiatr;st and one pa¡t-time physician-both with waivers- to serve pat¡ents ât both EfS sltes via telehealth. During year two. ÊTS recruited three additional waivered medical providers, including a medical doctor, an advanced registered nurse Practitloner, and a physician ass¡stant.

Billing Protocols for MAT. The MAT-PDOA project collaborates w¡th Washington State agencies- the Depârtment of Health and The Health Care Authority (Med¡ca¡df-to rev¡se bill¡ng protocols for MAT to improve ¡ong-term sustainability and encourage statewide dissemination of MAT. Billing codes for MAT with buprenorphine have been available in Washington State for medical clinics but were not available for opioid treatment programs (OTPS) until January 2016. HM€ has been successfully billing for MAT services and the re¡mbursement rate ållowed them to hire an additional registered nurse and medical assistant staff for OBOI. Given ETS is an OTP, long term sustainability of MAT depends on contract¡ng with managed care organizations (MCOs). Securing contracts wìth MCOs has been an ongoing challenge for ETS. After nearly two years of negotiations, ETS has draft contracts with five MCOs and hope to finalize them prior to the end of grant funding in.luly 2018. However. even with the contracts in place, the reimbursement rate for OTPs is much lower thân the rate for medical offices. The reduced rate may present long term sustâinability challenges for prescribing buprenorphine in OTPs. Additionally, in 2018 the Washington State legislature appropriated funds to increase the Medicaid MAT rate.7 The ìncreased rate may encou¡age more providers to prescribe buprenorphine for MAT.

The MARS program is a peer-initiated and peer-based supportive communìty within HMC's OBOT program that provides education and other recovery supports to participants. The peer support navigator can provide one-on-one support to individuals w¡th a range of services from education on MAT to housing and employment support. MAT-PDOA patients are systematically síeened for depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), using the Patient Health Questionnaire 9 (PHQ-9), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 (GAD-7), and the PTSD Checklist-Civilian (PCl-Civilian), respectively. Three in four (77 percent) of enrolled patients had at least one mental health disorder and three in five (59 percent) had more than one mental health disorder (Figure 4).e, i0 Of those w¡th mental health disorders, depression was slightly more prevalent (6'l percent) than anxiety and PTSD (58 percent and 57 percent, respectively).

According to Medicaid claims and encounter datå, at least eight percent of MAT-PDOA Medicaid patients (N=439) had an opioid overdose-related hospitalization or emergency-room encounter in the two years prior to engagement in treatment. Using administrat¡ve data, ten MAT-PDOA patients died as of January 31, 2018 (the end of the follow-up period). Fìve of the deaths were confirmed opioid overdoses according to death certificates. Three of the ind¡v¡duals were enrolled in treatment at the time of death, four deaths occurred withìn two month of discharge, and the remaining deaths were six to eleven months after discharge.

Summary The Washington State MAT-PDOA project is meeting the goals establìshed in the grant: . The three MAT-PDOA clinic sites enrolled 532 unique individuals into their office-based opioid treatment programs. / . Patients were provided integrated care for their opioid use disorder and 51 percent of all enrolied ê pat¡ents were retained ¡n treatment for one year or longer. . Alcohol and drug use rates decreased from intake to follow up./ o Adverse outcomes related to OUD lvere mit¡gated. Employment/school enrollment rates and outpat¡ent treatment participation increased. lnpatient hospitalizations or treatment and emergency department utilization decreased. Additionally, MAT-PDOA clinics trained and hired additional medical providers to prescribe buprenorphine; improved their ability to document and track OUD pat¡ents; and made buprenorphine prescrìbing in OTPs more sustainable. Patients continue to be offered or referred to medical seruices, behavioral health services, and social and recovery supports.

When the City of Sequim decided to set aside initial funding to help encourage and support the arts in the City and specifically in the Civic Center, Karen and several community members sat down and reviewed the building plans and talked about how to realize this exciting opportunity. The building was built, the City Arts Advisory Commission was established and tasked with bringing this dream \ù/ith alive. Karen became the staff person to work with the new Commission. Karen's extensive knowledge of the goals, community resources, people, orgarizations and the workings of local government, the Commission was able to populate the Civic Center with artwork and to fully develop and implement the idea of an on-going gallery space for local artists within the lobby area.

Karen's dedication to the concept was apparent, as was her love of all artistic forms. She was a tremendous resource to the Commission with ideas, and sometimes more importantly, the ability to keep all apprised of how local government had to work. We were always pushing the envelop and she was always there to encourage ideas while keeping things on track. Her enthusiasm, hard work and general support for the rotating art exhibit program helped establish the Civic Center gallery as a major, positive addition to our local community arts scene.

It is more than fitting that the lobby Gallery in the Sequim Civic Center be dedicated to Karen. Her spirit and dedication stands as a shining example of what canbeaccomp1ishedwhenwe1ffiandworktomakeitso. Pe^rêoou CitY of Sequim

It is well established that specific land use regulations control over more general ones, and in this case, the terms "alcohólism or drug treatmeat centers" or "detoxification centers" are *l',,"h *o." specific than the general terms "clinic" or "medical facility"''?

Although it is not clear foom the record at this point, SOS believes that the City and the applicants"nay believe that the proposed proiect qualifies as either a "lvledjcal Facility" or an "Eäe¡rtial Pubiic Facility", and ai such is either a permitted or a conditional use in the RREOA District. lf this is ir fact the city and the Applicant's position, it is also incorrect'

only once in the description lvledical Facilities: The term "medical facility" appears -of the ticoîãññõp!ãrtunit3,Ârea (EOA) districts conrained in sMC 18.33.010, and that is only in the general description for theie Districts rather than in the specific descriotio.n for the [email protected]'010,whichpror'ides as follows:

The specific description of the purpose of the RREOA District is contained in SlvfC 18.83.020(B). Notably, thii descriptiondoes not contain the phrase "medical faciÌities", or anything olr" t"æonábly resembling the proposed proiect. SMC 18.33.020(B), provides as follolt's:

Essential public Facility: If on the other hand the City and the appÌicants^believe that th" profrõãããffiuaiifi*ãs a "essential public facility", a hearing in front of the City Council is mandated.

Essential Public facilities are defined in the Grortth N{anagement Act as:

.,... those facilities that are typically diflicult to site, such as airports, stâte education facilities a¡d state ói regional transportation facilities as defined in RClv 47.06.140, regional rransii authority facilities as defined in RCW 81.112.020, state a;d local correctional facilities, solid waste handling facilities, and inpatient facilities including substance abuse facilities.- mental health facilitieiEoup homes, and secure commùnity transition facilities as ¿efiræ¿ in nCW zt.os.ozo.nCW'" RCW 36.70Â.200{1}' (Emphasis added) October 1û, 2013 Itage 5

Clearly the ìegislature did not intentl for this list to be exhaustive, given thephrase "such as", thus tLe distinction betlveen an inpatient and an outpatient facility is not relevant. In addition, the applicants have made it crystal clear that this proiect includes an inpatient treatment facility in Phase IL ô ì ñ^¡lì ll , .-. ¿irilj S¡{C Chapter 18.56 governs the siting of essential public facìlities rvithin the City. SCC Section 18.b6.040 requires an "essential public facilities and special propsrty use permit" ,.,:l:,'"îii which is eranted bv the Citv Council before one can be sited in the City:

The criteria for Council approval of an essential pubìic facilities and special plopelty use permit are contained in SMC 18.56.060, which reads in full as follorvs:

Clearly, the siting of an essential public in the City of Sequim requires ypg-¡þ mandated by SlvlC 18.56.060

can satisfy these ttrorough and exhaustive requirements.

To summarize, neither phase of this proiect as described constifutes a "clinic" or a ,.rnedical facility", the facility is more accurately described as a comprehensive "alcoholism or drug treatment center" or "dótoxification centeÌ". As such, it falls foursquare within the Croît¡ Management Act's cleñnition of an "essential public facilit¡r'. And essential public facilities can Jnly l¡e cited in Sequinr after the applicant Ìras received an Ëssential Public Facilities and speciat hope¡ty uie Permit, rvhich can onl¡r be granted try the sequim city council under slvfc 1s.56.040, and onìy after the robust and rigorous public process described in Slr.IC 18.S6.060 has been cbnducted and appropriate, iustifiable and defensible findings of fact have been made.

\û, ¿i A. Spence Schael MAS:ahc cc: SOS A Compilation of News Articles Supporting SOS Concerns

Those that think our MAI clinic concems are unwarranted need to take a look at the following recent news reports. Ignoring proven hazards is to be in dangerous denial, and will lead to manifest troubles. Waiting op-timistically to see what happens is irresponsible, especially in light of strong evidence. Taking these well founded concerns seriously will offer Sequim an opportunity to make wise choices and prevent destructive outcomes.

MAT Locations Attract Trouble

. Whsr an addict can't score, they can use Methadone as a stop gap. (Excerpt) "This is a convenient place because the little local methadone clinic Evergreen is why we are at this particular location," says Paige Conca, a heroin addict who has lived at fhe camp for two years." httns://komonelvs.com/news/local/woman-her-4-kids-among-those-forced-out-jose-rizal-¡rark

. Drop out rehab patients are not going horne. (Excerpt) "The (rehab patients) ale not going back home to the Nofihèast," said Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg, who leads the county's Sober Home Task Force. "The incentives are too great to remain here", "They've set up these individuals for failure." https://rrrvrv.ocregister.com/2 017l12l17lare-drug-rehab-centers-fueling-homelessness-in-southem-california/amp/?fbclid=IwAR2z- fl5kLvZDOlamhDSpvKR-b2OlwHMnyflFSVB cn-X481ZEcXsNV4YHl&_trvittelimpression=lrue

. Treaünent instead of prison. Everett has a new MAI facility. Everett police take the 30+o/o of their aûestees, that are heroin users, to the new MAT facility instead ofjail.

. Court ordered üeatment will favor moving criminally convicted addicts to other towrs for treatment. (Excerpt). "It is just a mattsr of identifying where the programs are outside of the ciry said Woodward." https://ûrvwkxly.com/newVget-treatment-or-go-to-jail-would-an-ultrmatum-help-spokane-s-homglçss-prphlems-i I 125330165'l uñ_mediun:õõial&utm-sãurce{acebcnk-4-News-Now&fbclid:hvAR33-TunSryrlMSs0q.wZJDcIcg)GlrTkko3eihluqrMqhOSrXd 23rvY3MxP7o

. Many hard core criminals are embedded in the homeless population. A homeless Portland addict (a serious, repeating criminal) received court ordered treafinent and probation, instead of prison.

Diversion Efforts (Bussing)

tt 71ig Karen Kuznek-Reese is a remarkable person. As an Associate Member of the City's Art Commission I am thrilled she is being recognized with the naming of the lobby art gallery in her honor. ln that regard, l'd like to share a little about my experience working with her.

A few years ago, she hired me for a volunteer concierge position and was essentially my boss, As we got to know each other better, she became my friend. As she got to know me better, she spotted an opportunity. She thought she could get more action out of me and she was right.

Apparently, there had been an idea floating around that the opening nights of our art shows should include an additional element of entertainment. She proposed that I execute this plan.

There was a new show scheduled for January 2017 called "Fired, Fused and Stained....All Things Glass". We decided to invite 3 glass artists to give presentations on opening night.

Karen is an excellent judge of character and capabilities. ln my case, she trusted me to make things work and not embarrass anyone, particularly not the City....Or not too much, anyway. She knew just about everyone in the community and everyone seemed to love and respect her. So when she gave me the names of glass artists to contact.....all I had to do was drop Karen's name and they all said "yes".....even though none of us knew exactly what they were saying "yes" to. lt was a fabulous rather chaotic and successful initial event that continued 3 times ayear for the next 3 years.

The next show was called "Asian Flair". Now we know Karen has a lot of flair. She and I frequently compared who was wearing the most bling. For this show opening, she wanted me to arrange for a Tai Chi master or somesuch. I wanted a sushi chef. And so our brainstorming continued for 3 years. So much fun. So creative. With so many laughs.

Whenever I hit a wall or got frustrated with my Art Talk activities, I would see Karen. She could quickly get me back on track. With her 1000 Watt smile, her enthusiasm and support....she was my rock. She always knew exactly what I needed to hear. She was a master-ful people manager.

It was an honor working with Karen and becoming her friend. She is an amazing person and we all wish she could be with us tonight....with lhal dazzling smile of hers. Thank you for honoring her this way. lt's perfect. f;ii¡ oíSc;¡liiiii

Why We Are Here Today

Opioid use disorder (OUD) is a public health crisis that has afflicted our North Olympic communities. Aggressive and deceptive marketing by pharmaceutical companies convinced physicians and dentists that their product would provide pain relief without addictive consequences.

Nothing could have been further from the truth. Opioid medication was prescribed in high quantities following procedures ranging from wisdom-tooth extraction to athletic injuries to pain related to aging, thus ensnaring unsuspecting victims into the nightmare of addiction.

The build-up to the health-care crisis spared no one. lt cut across economic, age, gender, religious affiliation demographics.

Sequim has not been spared. The person suffering from OUD could be the person sitting next to you in church or at the table next to you in your favorite café.

The Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe responded to the crisis with plans to build a Healing Campus in the far- west corner of Sequim. Their holistic approach to the health care crisis treats OUD clients with respect and compassion.

We do not believe that the planned facility poses a threat to the community of Sequim.

Why We Are Here Today

Opioid use disorder (OUD) is a public health crisis that has afflicted our North Olympic communities. Aggressive and deceptive marketing by pharmaceutical companies convinced physicians and dentists that their product would provide pain relief without addictive consequences.

Nothing could have been further from the truth. Opioid medication was prescribed ín high quantities following procedures ranging from wisdom-tooth extraction to athletic injuries to pain related to aging, thus ensnaring unsuspecting victims into the nightmare of addiction.

The build-up to the health-care crisis spared no one. lt cut across economic, age, gender, religious affiliation demographics.

Sequim has not been spared. The person suffering from OUD could be the person sitting next to you in church or at the table next to you in your favorite café.

The Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe responded to thê crisis with plans to build a Healing Campus in the far- west corner of Sequim. Their holistic approach to the health care crisis treats OUD clients with respect and compassion.

We do not believe that the planned facility poses a threat to the community of Sequim. Our experience with the Tribe has been that they are competent, have integríty, and are a generous partner when it comes to contributing to the Sequim community. Of the l-7,000 plus served at their Jamestown Family Health clinic, over 16,000 are non-Tribe members.

We also know that local governments may not use zoning laws to discriminate against MAT programs.*

We are here today to show our support for those seeking treatment that leads to recovery, and for the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe Healing Campus in its planned location.

We are also here to express our gratitude to the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe for their grace and generosity, and to honor their deep ancestral roots in the North Olympic Peninsula.

- Provide additional technical assistance and resources to replicate leading practices to make Washington a leader in overcoming the Opioid epidemic.

a Housing - Allow all c¡ties in Washington the ability to implement a multifamily tax exemption {MF[E}. Current law only allows the county seat and cities above 15,æO in population to use the exemption. This creates situations like Sequim's, where Sequirn is prohibited from using the MFTE but Port Townsend, its comparable sized neighbor with a population of 9,610, is able to use it because Port Townsend is a county seat. Port Angeles, Sequim's other neighbor, is also able to use it as a county seat and a city of over 19,000 residents. Sequim's recent housing study indicated that Sequim's housing shortage is comparable to its neighbors but as a small city, Seguim is afforded fewer tools to deal with its shortage.

a I strongly support the Jamestown S'Kllalam Healing Campus proposed for Sequim.

o Opioid addiction isra public health crisis that was created by aggressive, irresponsible, and misleading marketing tactics by big pharmaceutical companies.

a I fully support your making decisions based on information provided by informed, trained professionals, such as Dr. Unthank and the professionals at Clallam County Health and Human Services who have been trained in epidemiology among other public health issues.

a Drug addiction and people who have no shelter are already a part of sequim; the Healing Campus will not add to it

a There is no evidence that a treatment center such as the Healing Campus attracts drug dealers or addicts who are not in treatment; nor is there evidence that it will increase the number of people who have no sherter (https://www.jhsph.edufnews/news- releasesl2016/violent-crime-lower-near-drug-treatment-centers-tha n-other- commercial-areas. htm l)

o Being compassionate is not the same thing as enabling addiction.

o I believe it is our responsibility as a community to provide the opportunity for those affected by OUD to be treated without shame or judgement;

o Addiction has been deemed a brain disorder that is most effectively treated medically, rather than through law enforcement

a It is our responsibility as a community to find solutions for finding shelter for those who do not have it MOJMIR BABACEK - MIND CONTROL COMPILATION ARTICLE

July 6, 2012

The report on U.S. military policy by “ Project for New American Century” states: “ It is now commonly understood that information and other new technologies ... are creating a dynamic that may threaten America’s ability to exercise its dominant military power. Potential rivals, such as China are anxious to exploit those transformational technologies broadly, while adversaries like Iran, Iraq and North Korea are rushing to develop ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons ... the effects of information and other advanced technologies promise to revolutionize the nature of conventional armed forces” (ref. 13, pg. 4 and 11). The military concept of information technologies is, however, kept hidden from the world general public.

In February 2000 the Russian daily Segodnya, in the article "Riders of Psychotronic Apocalypse” (1), informed that in 1996 Russian government’s information agency FAPSI warned that the effect of “ informational means of war” is comparable to “ the effect of the use of weapon of mass destruction” and produced a report entitled “ Information Weapon as a Threat to National Security of Russia” . In reaction, the Russian State Duma and consequently , the Interparliamentary Assembly of the Union of Independent States addressed the United Nations, OBSE and the European Council with a proposal for an international convention banning the development and use of informational weapons. According to the same newspaper Segodnya in March 1998, the matter was discussed with U.N. secretary general Kofi Anan, and included on the agenda of the General Assembly of the U.N. Most probably the USA vetoed this proposal and in consequence, the ban of informational weapons was not discussed by the United Nations General Assembly.

In the Doctrine of Informational Security of the Russian Federation, signed by President Putin in September 2000, among the dangers threatening the informational security of the Russian Federation, there is “ the threat to the constitutional rights and freedoms of people and citizens in the sphere of spiritual life and to individual, group and societal consciousness” by “ illegal use of special means affecting individual, group and societal consciousness.” (16). Among “ the main areas of international cooperation of the Russian Federation in the field of information security” , is listed “ banning the development, proliferation and application of ‘information weapons’ ” (17).

In the article under discussion Segodnya described “ mysterious information-psychological” means capable not only of harming human health, but also of blocking human free will at the subconscious level, impairing human beings’ ability of “ political, cultural and other self-identification” and even “ causing destruction of indivisible informational and spiritual space of the Russian Federation” . According to Russian scientist A. F. Okhatrin, those means are also capable to kill people (2). Underneath the article, Segodnya published a review of weapons affecting human psyche which it obtained from the Russian Department of Defense. Together with ultrasound and microwave weapons, there are also “ psychotronic weapons” which, in addition to having the capability of “ transfering information among people” , are able to act on communication and electronic systems (1). The Space J’resefvaiion Bill proposed by Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich in the U.S. House rr ~ :. c ^ -i- of Representatives in 2001, names the following technologies enabling access to the human brain, human health impairment or the killing of people: “ land-based, sea-based or space-based systems using radiation, electromagnetic, psychotronic, sonic, laser or other energies directed at individual persons or targeted populations for the purpose of information war, mood managment or mind control of such persons or populations” (4). “ Psychotronic weapon” listed in the Dennis J. Kucinich’s bill is described as a weapon using “ torsion fields” radiation in the book “ Psychotronic Weapon and the Security of Russia” (6) by Russian scientist Vladimir Tsygankov and Vladimir Lopatin (a politician, who worked on Committees on Security in Russian Federal Republic, State Duma of the Russian Federation and the Interparliamentary Assembly of the Union of Independent States). Among the possible sources of remote influence on human psyche those two authors list “ generators of physical fields” of “ known as well as unknown nature” (14). It is common knowledge that both KGB and CIA carried out a large-scale research of psychotronic phenomena in the 70’s of the past century. It is not out of question that their scientists succeded in discovering the physical basis of those phenomena. In the 80’s the research did not continue, but the number of people complaining that their nervous system is manipulated from outside started growing from the begining of this decade.

Among the known physical concepts non-local electron and photon connection can be used to explain telepathy. The ability of sound and light technologies to influence human psyche is exemplified by Psychowalkman industry. The existence of the electromagnetic mind control technology is confirmed in the STOA report on crowd control technologies (40), Conclusion of the Committee on Security of the Russian State Duma [3] and can be deduced as well from scientific and military literature.

Nerve impulses in the brain are carried by electrical signals triggered by changes in chemical balance. During the fifties and sixties of the past century, it was proved that human nervous system and behavior can be thoroughly controlled by electric signals imported to the brain by tiny electrodes (41). 100 stimulations of one point in the bulks brain made him 100 times bellow. When a man was asked to straighten his hand the bending of which was stimulated he replied “ I think your electricity is stronger than my will.” By means of electrical stimulation of the brain the rhythm of breathing and heart beat [this was even stopped for several pulses] was affected as well as the function of the most of the viscera - like the secretion of the gall bladder. The stimulation of areas in the brain where feelings and emotions reside produced decisions. A passive, depressed woman tore up a piece of paper when her center of anger was stimulated: “1 did not control myself. I had to get up and tear” , she commented. An aggressive woman, with the same area stimulated, got up and smashed against the wall the guitar she was playing until the moment of stimulation. The intensity of feelings could be controlled by turning the knob which reduced or increased the intensity of the electric current. When the pleasure area was stimulated women offered marriage to therapists. Stimulation of a particular area in a female monkey‘s brain ended her motherly care for a newborn baby. When the limbic system was stimulated the patients vigilance weakened, they lost the ability to think, they often began to undress or grope and when the stimulation stopped they could not remember what was happening. The signals had to be delivered in specific frequencies to produce repetitive action of neurons. Spanish scientist Jose Delgado became world known when he, with the use of this technology, made a bull attack him by pressing one button on the small black box and stopped the bull few feet away from him by pressing another button.

-2- The idea that electric currents in the brain could be induced by electromagnetic energy is obviously subsequent step in this path of research. The information inside of the brain is processed digitally; in other words analog perceptions are “ translated” and transferred by a number and frequency of nerve impulses, while the intensity of the feeling or perception usually corresponds to the intensity of electrical current. Walter J. Freeman, who had been for years measuring the brain activity in reaction to different stimuli by multitudes of microelectrodes, presented already in 1975 a hypothesis “ that a novel external stimulus is broadly transmitted from the primary sensory cortex or thalamus to other parts of the cortex... transmission occurs at some characteristic frequency, and...reception occurs in ... sets tuned to that frequency” (37). In other words, when neurons cooperate in the processing of specific information they synchronize their activity and oscillate in the same frequency. In an experiment by Wolf Singer (20) the differences in brain activity in reaction to two different stimuli, presented to the tested subject at the same time, were represented by two different groups of neurons oscillating in different frequencies. In the modern scientific literature synchronization of frequencies of emitted nerve impulses in different parts of the brain as a principle of brain functioning is generally accepted (19). Electroencephalographers have no doubt that those synchronizations appear on the EEG recordings and are already able to “ read” in those frequencies the single letters of a word perceived by the tested subject (21). Theoretically this means that the events in the brain can be produced “ synthetically” from the outside when additional energy is pumped into the brain in specific frequencies corresponding to specific brain activities. John Marks, in his book on CIA mind control research, quotes one of the CIA research veterans recalling a colleague’s joke: “ If you could find the natural radio frequency of a person1s sphincter, you could make him run out of the room real fast” (22). Since most of the activity of human brain takes place in frequencies from 1 to 100 Hz and electromagnetic waves of this frequency are hundreds and even thousands of miles long, and, for that matter, could not target human brain, scientists started experimenting with pulsed microwaves. There are “ window” microwave frequencies which penetrate deep enough into the brain tissue to produce activity of neurons there.

The interaction of electromagnetic radiation and chemicals in the brain was proved for example by the experiment where irradiation of rats’ heads by 20 and 40 mW/cm2 microwaves pulsed at 300, 600 and 1000 Hz woke the rats up in 5 minutes from narcosis (23). Electrical signals of neurons in the brain are mediated by chemicals called neurotransmitters. At a conference on “ Emerging Electromagnetic Medicine” in 1989 Capt. Paul Tyler, director of the U.S. Navy Electromagnetic Radiation Project between 1970 and 1977, quoted in his lecture the research of Dr. Merrit who measured the decrease of norepinephrine, serotonine and dopamine when a field of 80 mW/cm2 was applied (24). All those hormones act as neurotransmitters into the cortex. Dopamin influences the ability to learn and other cognitive abilities. Disruption in the biosynthesis or transmission of dopamine can lead to Parkinson’s disease. In another experiment a 500Hz signal produced release of neradrenaline in sympathetical neurons (25). Since those neurons control the muscles of internal organs and noraderenaline acts there as a neurotransmitter, an oposite signal should be able to reduce the activity of internal organs and eventually impair human health. The publication of the World Health Organization on the effects of electromagnetic radiation on living organisms from 1981 (25) gives many examples of the effects of microwave radiation on the excretion of glands and chemical composition of blood. Many of those effects could harm human health. Microwave radiation can also affect molecules of DNA and thus affect the development of organisms (25). This was proved by an experiment by Yale neuroph^Sidlogi1^ Jose Delgado, where the irradiation of chicken embryos by 10, 100 cr -3- and 1000 Hz stopped their development including the development of hearts and veins. The experiment was replicated by the American Navy with the same results. Such attack by microwaves could have, in the long run, disastrous impact on targeted populations.

As a matter of fact microwave radiation can produce many deadly effects. In the experiment by McAffee already mentioned, the microwaves pulsed at 300, 600 and 1000 Hz produced impairment in breathing (even leading to suffocation) in rats. A similar signal could also suffocate human beings. At the conference on Nonlinear Electrodynamics in Biological Systems in 1983 the experiment was presented where blood clots were formed by microwave radiation (26). This capability is also suitable for weaponisation. Similarly dangerous is the finding of Allan Frey that radio frequency radiation can weaken the blood-brain barrier that prevents poisonous chemicals from the access into the brain (30). In 1986 the American Air Force issued a book “ Low Intensity Conflict and Modem Technology” (18). The chapter “ Electromagnetic Spectrum in Low Intensity Conflict” , was written by Capt. Paul Tyler, who had been the director of the U.S. Navy Electromagnetic Radiation Project from 1970 until 1977. At the beginning of the chapter, Capt. Tyler quotes a source entitled “ Final Report on Biotechnology Research Requirements for Aeronautical Systems Through the Year 2000” that had been issued by American Air Force in 1982: “ Currently available data allow the projection that specially generated radiofrequency radiation (RFR) fields may pose a powerful and revolutionary antipersonnel military threats ... the passage of approximately 100 miliamperes through the myocardium can lead to cardiac standstill and death ... A rapidly scanning RFR system could provide an effective stun or kill capability over a large area. System effectiveness will be a function of wave form, field intensity, pulse width, repetition frequency, and carrier frequency.”

In less draconian assault, the use of microwaves could be limited just to the influence of human behavior. In 1985 Kathleen McAuliffe visited Jose Delgado in his laboratory in Spain, where he experimented with electromagnetic stimulation of brain. She subsequently wrote an article for the magazine OMNI (27). Jose Delgado showed her how he could make an ape fall asleep, or make it overactive, or how he could calm down fighting fish using suitably modulated microwave radiation.

The next series of experiments shows that human behavior can be controlled in even more intricate ways. In 1962 Allan H. Frey published in the “ Journal of Applied Physiology” (28) the results of experimentation with transmission of sounds into the brain by electromagnetic radiation at a distance of up to 1000 feet. The “ electromagnetic” sounds were heard by deaf as well as hearing people. In his report, Frey writes that, by then, only the visual system had been shown to respond to electromagnetic energy and he noted that, “ With somewhat different transmission parameters we can induce the perception of severe buffeting of the head..” and ’’Changing ... parameters again, one can induce a ‘pins-and-needles’ sensation.” Frey’s experiment was replicated several times by other scientists (28). Another, more advanced experiment that involved the transmission of radio modulated with audible sounds into the brain, was published only inadvertently in 1975, when Don R. Justesen published, in the article on “ Microwaves and Behavior” (29), the result of an experiment described to him over the telephone conversation by his colleague J. C. Sharp, who worked on a secret military project Pandora. Joseph C. Sharp at the Walter Reed Army Institute improved the method of Frey to the point that he was able to transmit into the experimental subject’s brain words which he could understand. The ability of U.S. military to produce perception of speech in humans by

-4- microwave radiation substantiates the article by Sharon Weinberger, “ Mind Games” , which was published in The Washington Post in January 2007. In response to a Freedom of Information Act request filed for the article the Air Force released “ records that note that the patent was based on human experimentation in October 1994 at the Air Force lab, where scientists were able to transmit phrases into the heads of human subjects” The article also states that “ the research laboratory, citing classification, refused to discuss it or release other materials” (31).

Robert Becker, who was twice nominated for Nobel price for his share in the discovery of the effects of pulsed fields at the healing of broken bones, wrote in his book (30) about the experiment by J. F. Schapitz, who stated: “ In this investigation it will be shown that the spoken word of hypnotist may also be conveyed by modulated electromagnetic energy directly into the subconcscious parts of the human brain - i. e. without employing any technical devices for receiving or transcoding the messages and without the person exposed to such influence having a chance to control the information input consciously.” In one of the four experiments subjects were given a test of hundred questions, ranging from easy to technical ones. Later, not knowing they were being irradiated, they would be subjected to information beams suggesting the answers to the questions they had left blank, amnesia for some of their correct answers, and memory falsification for other correct answers. After 2 weeks they had to pass the test again (30). The results of those experiments were never published. It is rather evident that in those experiments the messages were sent into human brain in ultrasound frequencies which the human brain perceives, but of which the subject is unaware. According to Russian newspapers, in this way, people may be programmed to perform different actions in the same way people can be programmed under hypnosis. In Moscow there exists Psychocorrection Center, where this method is used to heal psychical diseases such as alcoholism. The use of this method was questioned in the Russian press when general Lev Rokhlin was killed by his wife in his sleep at 2 a.m. after she had had a casual telephone conversation with a female friend. Did her friend use a sequence of words which were supposed to trigger the murderous action? Before his murder General Rokhlin planned for army protests against army reform and visited editor’s desks of Russian newspapers, telling them he might be soon killed in a car accident, during a drinking spree or during an argument with his wife (42).

In his other book “ Cross Currents” Robert Becker presents the report coming from the Microwave Research Department at the Walter Reed Army Institute, where J.C. Sharp carried out his experiment with the transmission of words into the brain by radiofrequency radiation. The report deals with the effects of pulsed microwaves on the nervous system and describes the division of testing program into four parts: 1) prompt debilitating effects; 2) prompt stimulation auditory effects; 3) work interference (stoppage) effects; 4) effects on stimulus controlled behavior. The report presents this conclusion: “ Microwave pulses appear to couple to the central nervous system and produce stimulation similar to electrical stimulation unrelated to heat” (32).

In the second volume of the Final Report on Biotechnology Research Requirements for Aeronautical Sysmes of the American Air Force it is stated: “ While initial attention should be toward degradation of human performance through thermal loading and electromagnetic field effects, subsequent work should address the possibilities of directing and interrogating mental functioning, using externally applied fields...” (33). In the second volume of the report the > IM Lrr .: i ':V! ft -5- research was evaluated as “ progressing according to the schedule or in advance” and was supposed to be terminated in 2010.

In the Soviet Russia the ongoing research in this area was completely hidden from the public, but change of political system and actual use of this equipment during the putsch against Gorbachov brought this subject to newspapers headlines. According to Russian daily newspapers, during the failed coup d’etat against Gorbachov, General Kobets warned the defenders of the Russian White House that mind control technology could be used against them. After the putsch, respected Russian scientist Victor Sedlecki published a statement in the Russian daily Komsomolskaya Pravda that psychotronic biogenerators were mass produced in the Soviet Union and were used during the failed coup d’etat [7], but failed to succeed due to the inexperience of the personel who operated them. In the following spree of articles on the subject of mind control, the experiment was published where manipulation of masses of people by microwave radiation was performed. Already in 1974, after successful testing on a military unit in Novosibirsk, the installation Radioson (Radiosleep) was registered with the Government Committee on the Matters of Inventions and Discoveries of the USSR, described as a method of induction of sleep by means of radio waves. Apparently, in 1974, the entire military unit was put to sleep (5).

In the book “ Low Intensity Conflict and Modern Technology” (18), Captain Tyler also wrote: “ Because of the many parameters involved and the apparent specificity of each parameter, one can tailor a specific response. The ability to have this kind of flexibility provides an enormous range of options to the user. It opens the door for providing an appropriate response in warfare, be it conventional or unconventional” (18). If you object that the range of frequencies in which the human nervous system works is too narrow to provide for such a wide choice of reactions, Capt. Tyler writes: “ There are unconfirmed reports that change of 0.01 Hz can make a difference.” Since many activities of human brain are represented by different sequences of frequencies, this provides for further large choices.

At the end of 1994 the first tests of the most powerful radar system in the world were carried out in Alaska. This year its power should reach 10 billion watts and later 100 billion watts. The main features of the system include its ability to heat the ionosphere and in this way change the altitude of the ionosphere. By this kind of manipulation of the ionosphere, it is possible to bounce the electromagnetic waves back from the ionosphere to whichever region of the planet one wishes to target. According to the official information by the U.S. government the system HAARP is designed for scientific research. However, there are too many facts suggesting that the major reason for its construction are military purposes. The main patent of Bernard J. Eastlund (number 4,686,605) proposes the use of the system for destruction of navigation systems of airplanes and missiles wherever in the atmosphere they might be, and for interference with all communication systems anywhere on the planet, and the global weather control. Other patents connected with the system propose the use of the system for induction of detonations in the extent of nuclear explosions and other military uses (33).

Evidently, the warning of Russian intelligence agency FAPSI to the Russian government and the article in the Russian daily “ Segodnya” were direct recations to the installation of the U.S.

-6- HAARP system. The HAARP system can start pulsing microwave radiation with one thousandth of one Hertz and this means that, when raising pulsing frequencies, it can change pulses of microwave radiations by one thousandths of one Hertz and can control the activity of human brain in frequencies from 1 to 100 Hertz which are crucial for functioning of human nervous system. In June 1995, Michael Persinger, who apparently worked on the American Navy’s project of non-lethal electromagnetic weapons “ Sleeping Beauty” , published, in a scientific magazine Perception and Motor Skills the article where he states: “ the technical capability to influence directly the major portion of the approximately six billion brains of the human species without mediation through classical sensory modalities by generating neural information within a physical medium within which all members of the species are immersed... is now marginally feasible” (34).

John B. Alexander, who later became the Director of Non-lethal Programs in Los Alamos National Laboratory, wrote in his article in the Military Review in the year 1980: “ whoever makes the first major breakthrough in this field will have a quantum lead over his opponent, an advantage similar to sole possession of nuclear weapons” (35). Samuel Koslov, a leading personality of the Pandora project that was dedicated to research of effects of microwave radiation on humans, and a researcher at the John Hopkins University, in his closing speech at the conference on Nonlinear Electrodynamics in Biological Systems in 1984, said that the conference had proven that the external electric fields can “ become a key to the cellular control console. The implications, social, economic, and even military are enormous.” Koslov went on: “ If much of what we have heard is indeed correct, it may be not less significant to the nation than the prospects that faced the physics community in 1939 when the long-time predicted fissionability of the nucleus was actually demonstrated. You may recall the famous letter of Albert Einstein to President Roosvelt. When we’re in a position to do so in terms of our proofs, I would propose that an analogous letter is required” (26).

It is this perspective, of the revolutionary nature of these scientific developments, that gives us the title, “ Revolution in Military Affairs and Conflict Short of War” , of a book published by the Strategic Studies Institute at the U.S. Army War College in 1994 (36). Since the national security information is in question, the book cannot tell the readers what technology exactly is making this revolution feasible. From the beginning the authors were aware that the use of this technology may run counter to basic moral and political values of the American society, and in consequence the revolution in military affairs would require a moral and political revolution to come first: ” In the pre-RMA days, psychological operations and psychological warfare were primitive. As they advanced into the electronic and bioelectronic era, it was necessary to rethink our ethical prohibitions on manipulating the minds of enemies (and potential enemies) both international and domestic... Through persistent efforts and very sophisticated domestic ’’consciousness raising” , old-fashioned notions of personal privacy and national sovereignty changed.” Since it is difficult for them to imagine that the American society would accept the ethical and political revolution that would deprive the citizen of his privacy, they develop a scenario of events which would lead the American political leaders to back this revolution. The scenario is placed into the year 2000, and is based on the situation of growing terrorism, drug trafficking and criminality. In the document Rebuilding Americas Defenses, backed by the past U.S. government, we read: “ To preserve American military preeminence in the coming decades, Uy ('• Utiiiim -7- the Department of Defense must . . . seek to exploit the emerging revolution in military affairs ... Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor” (ref. 13, pg. 51). Was it by accident that in 2001 a massive terrorist attack ocurred in the USA facilitated by questionable work of U.S. intelligence services and explosives in the World Trade Center and followed by anthrax attacks where the only indicted scientist, Bruce Ivins, did not have the technical means and scientific knowledge to turn the anthrax spores into a deadly aerosol which was used and that those two attacks were followed by an assault on privacy of U.S. Citizens and international law?

The scenario goes on: “ The president was thus amenable to the use of the sort of psychotechnology which formed the core of the RMA (revolution in military affairs) in conflict short of war ... As technology changed the way force was applied, things such as personal courage, face-to-face leadership, and the ‘warfighter’ mentality became irrelevant.” So the psychotechnology, which formed the core of the RMA, provided new methods for influencing the psyche of the adversary, in place of the classical strategy to make him fear his death. The book goes on: “ Potential or possible supporters of the insurgency around the world were identified using the comprehensive Interagency Integrated Database. These were categorized as ‘potential’ or ‘active’, with sophisticated personality simulations used to develop, tailor and focus psychological campaigns for each. There is also potential for defensive psychotechnology such as ‘strategic personality simulations’ to aid national security decision makers.” (See Norman D. Livergood and Stephen D. Williams, “ Strategic Personality Simulation: A New Strategic Concept” , unpublished draft paper, Carlisle Barracks, PAK: U.S. Army War College, 1994). Human behovior and thinking is substantially controlled by emotions. If simulated emotions are broadcasted into somebody’s nervous system they will orient his thinking and behavior. Thoughts are another organizer of human behavior and personal thoughts can be overridden by ultrasound messages. In other words if there was, for example, a new Jesus Christ, U.S. agencies would simply engineer his personality to make sure he would not introduce any cultural changes. Once the strategy of computerized personality simulation is applied, the unfolding of human history will be totally controlled by elites having exclusive access to those technologies. The conclusion of the authors was: “ Whether we opt for revolution or evolution, change will occur.”

The concept of the “ strategic personality stimulation” is probably tested on some of the people in the USA who claim to be mind control experiments victims, whose number, rapidly growing after 9/11 attacks, inspired the article in Washington Post, entitled “ Mind Games” (31) in 2007. Cheryl Welsh, the director of the American organization Mind Justice (38) claims that she has received over 2500 complaints from U.S. citizens. Though some of those people may be mentally ill, many of them defend themselves in a rational way that suggests that they may be mentally sound. The same situation is in Russia. Russian politician Vladimir Lopatin even admitted nonconsensual human-subject experiments had been conducted in Russia, when he wrote in the quoted book: “ Compensation of damages and losses connected with social rehabilitation of persons suffering from destructive informational influence must be realized in legal trial...” (14). Growing numbers of complaints are coming as well from China, India and Japan (over 200).

-8- The European Parliament reacted to the installation of HAARP system by calling for “ an international convention introducing a global ban on all developments and deployments of weapons which might enable any form of manipulation of human beings” (15, Paragraph 27). The body of the European Parliament STOA (Scientific and Technolgical Options Assessment) in the document “ Crowd Control Technologies” , stated that „some of these concerns... have been more specifically covered by the resolution on legal aspects of military activities passed at the meeting of the EP_s Foreign Affairs, Security and defence Policy which called for an international convention and global ban on all research and development , whether civilian or military , which seeks to apply knowledge of the chemical, electrical, sound vibration or other functioning of the human brain to the development of weapons which might enable any form of manipulation of human beings, including a ban on any actual or possible deployment of such systems. (40, pg CII, ref. 369). The „actual“ deployment of those means confirmed US Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich, the author of a Bill introduced into the US Congress in October 2001 proposing a ban on the deployment of “ mind control” weapons, when he was quoted to assert that those weapons actually exist and “ those people who control them are deadly serious and intend to use them, if we don’t stop the weaponisation of space” (10).

Electromagnetic technology enabling remote control of the functioning of human organism is subjected to National Security Information law in the USA (8) and all technologies enabling access to human brain are subject to the same law in the Russian Federation (9). Under such conditions, the mass media cannot fully disclose the existence and capacities of those technologies and world public cannot be engaged in favour of a ban on the use of such capabilities. The ownership of those technologies gives opportunity to governments to use them against individuals (and eventually against masses), without giving them any access to any legal remedy. The concept of the world respecting freedom and human rights is fundamentally corrupted in this way. In November 2000 the Committee on Security of the Russian State Duma stated that capabilities enabling remote control of human nervous system or the remote infliction of health impairment are available to many modem governments (3). This was confirmed by the article from the U.S. army weekly Defense News stating that mind control technologies were used by the Israelis against the Palestinians (12). As well ousted Flunduran president Manuel Zelaya, while under siege in Brazilian embassy in Honduras, complained that he had been subjected to an “ electron bombardment with microwaves” which produces “ headache and organic destabilisation” (44). When asked by Amy Goodman from Democracy Now: „As president, do you know about this in the Honduran arsenal?” He replied: „Yes, of course“ (45).

Evidently the secret arms race among the world governments may continue until the information war actually breaks out. V. Lopatin, in the book “ Psychotronic Weapon and the Security of Russia” , stated that psychotronic war is, as a matter of fact, “ already taking place without declaration of war” . In this way the human world may sink into some kind of virtual reality where the independence of human thinking, feeling and decision making will be destroyed as a part of an “ information war” or, in the worst case, into the reality where large masses of people will be killed, and unlike the aftermath of the use of nuclear weapons, the planet will still remain inhabitable for the survivors.

With emerging energetic, financial and climate crises either the next world war could erupt, or ff;ot SsKjiBui -9- the means of remote manipulation of human brains and organisms could be applied to control dissatisfied citizens. In the conclusion of the Committee on Security of the Russian State Duma it is stated: “ Phone lines, heating and sewer pipes, TVs, fire signalisation can be used as transmitting antennas” (3). Our elected democratic representatives are responsible for foreseeing the emerging crises and preventing them from happening by appropriate measures. However, they do not have mandate from citizens to allow those crises to happen, and then use technologies of mind manipulation to do away with citizen’s dissatisfaction. If this technology is once used against citizens it is questionable whether true democracy will be restored one day. The countries with the most advanced military technologies include the USA, which has never proposed any international initiative aimed at securing the ban of technologies enabling the remote control of human beings. According to the study “ Crowd Control Technologies” published by the European Parliament’s STOA office, the USA are the major promoter of the use of those arms. (In fact, it was principally the efforts of the USA government to persuade this outcome that ensured the inclusion in NATO military doctrine of non-lethal technology.) The STOA states: “ In October 1999 NATO announced a new policy on non-lethal weapons and their place in allied arsenals” ; and “ In 1996 non-lethal tools identified by the U.S. Army included... directed energy systems” and “ radio frequency weapons” . Directed energy system is further defined: „Directed energy weapon system designed to match radio frequency source to interfere 5 with human brain activity at synapse level ' (40).

According to the Russian government intelligence agency FAPSI, in the last 15 years, the U.S. expenses on the development and acquisition of the means of informational war grew fourfold and at the present time they occupy the first place among all military programs (17),(3). Though there are concepts of informational warfare other than the remote control of human beings, the unwillingnes of the USA to engage in the negotiations aimed at the ban of the manipulation of human brains suggests an intention to use those means in internal as well as in international affairs. If the USA achieve essential military preeminence in this area and if no global ban of the use of those technologies against civilians is negotiated, the USA may become a world totalitarian superpower of the new type.

So far the only government who made a small step toward the ban of those technologies is the Russian Federation where the addendum to the article 6 of the Russian Federation law “ On Weapons” was approved on July 26, 2001. The legislation states: “ within the territory of the Russian Federation is prohibited the circulation of weapons and other objects ... the effects of the operation of which are based on the use of electromagnetic, light, thermal, infra-sonic or ultra-sonic radiations.. Besides omitting the use of the term “ psychotronic energy” that both Lopatin and Kucinich used, the Russian legislation does not provide any means for Russian citizens to defend themselves against the use of those weapons. Nor is there any compulsion upon the police or public health organizations to set up teams capable of detecting radiation that was enabling remote manipulation of human body and nervous system, or the source of such radiation. Nor does this legislation prohibit Russian government agencies from the use of such technology against their own citizens. In the USA alone, some of the federal states have enacted in their laws on firearms, new standards on electric and electromagnetic weapons (Michigan in 2003, Massachusetts in 2004, Maine in 2005). Sanctions go from 15 years in jail to life imprisonment, identically with weapons of mass destruction. As in Russia, those laws do not

-10- provide for the defense of citizens against the use of those weapons by government agencies.

On February 25, 2009 Deputy Chief of General Staff of Russian Army, Anatoli Nogovicyn, stated that within 2 or 3 years a full fledged war in informational sphere, including “ information-psychlogical influence on population and military units” may break out (39). So far politicians (especially in the USA) have not shown responsible intention to take action to stop this new arms race, which threatens to place human beings in a position subsidiary to machines and to destroy democracy. Humanitarian organizations apparently do not dare to challenge this National Security Information (on several occasions Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have refused to engage with this issue). Under such circumstances, it is left to citizens themselves to organize defense of their freedoms and elementary human rights, before those technologies are used at war or to suppress their dissatisfaction with governments who failed to prevent the emerging crises. They should coordinate their efforts internationally if they want to succeed.

-14- The Genocide Convention Background

The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (Genocide Convention) is an instrument of international law that codified for the first time the crime of genocide. The Genocide Convention was the first human rights treaty adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations on 9 December 1948 and signified the international community’s commitment to ‘never again’ after the atrocities committed during the Second World War. Its adoption marked a crucial step towards the development of international human rights and international criminal law as we know it today.

According to the Genocide Convention, genocide is a crime that can take place both in time of war as well as in time of peace. The definition of the crime of genocide, as set out in the Convention, has been widely adopted at both national and international levels, including in the 1998 Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC). Learn more about the definition of the crime of genocide.

Importantly, the Convention establishes on State Parties the obligation to take measures to prevent and to punish the crime of genocide, including by enacting relevant legislation and punishing perpetrators, “ whether they are constitutionally responsible rulers, public officials or private individuals” (Article IV). That obligation, in addition to the prohibition not to commit genocide, have been considered as norms of international customary law and therefore, binding on all States, whether or not they have ratified the Genocide Convention.

States' obligations under the Genocide Convention Obligation not to commit genocide (Article I as interpreted by the ICJ) Obligation to prevent genocide (Article I) which, according to the ICJ, has an extraterritorial scope; Obligation to punish genocide (Article I); Obligation to enact the necessary legislation to give effect to the provisions of the Convention (Article V); Obligation to ensure that effective penalties are provided for persons found guilty of criminal conduct according to the Convention (Article V); Obligation to try persons charged with genocide in a competent tribunal of the State in the territory of which the act was committed, or by an international penal tribunal with accepted jurisdiction (Article VI); Obligation to grant extradition when genocide charges are involved, in accordance with laws and treaties in force (Article VII), particularly related to protection granted by international human rights law prohibiting refoulment where there is a real risk of flagrant hurhari rigWi?violations in the receiving State.
