The CIA launched Operation MKULTRA during the early 1950s to develop psychochemical tools for mind control to counter perceived Soviet and Chinese advances in brainwashing techniques. Western experts and societies alike suspected that the communists had already developed and used mind-control and behavior modification drugs. Public testimonies of US prisoners of war in Korea, or that of Cardinal Mindszenty of Hungary admitting to unrealistic crimes in fabricated trials appeared to support this opinion (Douglass, 2001). And indeed, decades later Mindszenty mentioned pills that got him to make a confession (Mindszenty, 1974). A new branch of science, neuropharmacology, emerged in parallel with its immediate political and military misuse. Matched with American military efforts (Szinicz, 2005), Britain was also secretly working on the weaponization of LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) and BZ (3-quinuclidinyl benzilate) as nonlethal battlefield drug weapons (Dando and Furmanski, 2006)
