John D. Marks

John D. Marks is a CIA agent, trained at elite school Philips Academy and Cornell, used as controlled opposition in the media industry to spread confusion and disinfo about MK Ultra and other mind control projects. He founded Search for Common Ground, a foundation with Abigail Disney, Isaac Lee (CFR, Televisa, Legendary Pictures, gay agenda) and Eric Berman (Universal Music Group), funded by Jeff Skoll.

In 1974 Albert Knopf published his book CIA and the Cult of Intelligence. Knopf was trained at Philips Exeter and the publisher of jesuit Bill Clinton, Oswald Spengler, Ezra Pound and eugenicist Jack London (Bohemian Club).

The book was written with Victor Marchetti, who spread disinfo about the JFK ritual with Liberty Lobby of Willis Carto of World Anti-Communist League. Eustace Mullins, the editor of Willis Carto's American Free Press also worked with Ezra Pound.

Marchetti later claimed MK Ultra never ended and the CIA had contact with extraterrestrials (method of mixing facts with fiction, creating mystery, mythology, vagueness, distraction). The book was the start of the Frank Olson media ritual with Seymour Hersch of The NY Times and the Church Commission in 1975.

He wrote The Search for the Manchurian Candidate, a pun on The Manchurian Candidate with Frank Sinatra and Laurence Harvey, based on a novel of Richard Condon. Condon wrote the foreword of Operation Mind Control of Walter Bowart (circle of Timothy Leary and Allen Ginsberg, foreword of Brice Taylor's book). The book disclosed the role of Gordon Wasson in MK Ultra.

Marks claimed the book was the result of reading the 16.000 documents released through the Freedom of Information Act. It focused on Frank Olson and the Personality Assessment of John Gittinger (who helped writing the book).

He received an award of the Institute of Noetic Sciences of Edgar Mitchell.
