This study focused on the assessment of the benefits of ICT in entrepreneurship education in a depressed economy so it can impact more positively on every aspect of human life in our nation.  Since competence in ICT appears to be entrepreneurship oriented and is the most essential ingredient in Nigeria’s depressed economy, it was introduced to address the proper teaching of our students to be prepared to solve its needs in the labour market on graduation from our institution by proffering them with practical answers to the problems facing entrepreneurs in commerce and industries in the wider society and in a globalised economy.  ICT is inseparable from entrepreneurship education, however, the benefits of ICT in the world of work have not been adequately identified and resolved in our nation’s curriculum for entrepreneurship education. This vacuum, gap or lack in a depressed economy was/is what informs and makes this study very important.  Two research questions were formulated to guide the study and two hypotheses were tested at the .05 level of significance.  A descriptive survey design was adopted.  The population comprised 150 OTM lecturers in all the federal, state and private polytechnics in South East Zone of Nigeria.  The main instrument for data collection from our experimental subjects was a structured questionnaire with 30 main items and a five-point scale of response options.  The instrument was validated by five experts in entrepreneurship education and ICT and its reliability coefficient was .71.  The data were analysed by the comparing of means scores of respondents with their standard deviations and t-test statistics. 

The data statistically when analysed revealed among others facts,

*1. OTM lecturers required more ICT competencies for effective and efficient instructional delivery in entrepreneurship education in a depressed economy and

**2. The levels of education OTM lecturers as well as their duration of experience had no significant influence on the results of our assessment of ICT benefits in the zone. 

***3. Our conclusions and recommendations included that acquisition of adequate ICT competencies will make for a better efficiency in lecturing and will also guarantee effectiveness in instructional delivery in entrepreneurship education in our schools.

Based on these findings and conclusions, it was recommended that more sophisticated equipment and an experimental laboratory be installed at School of Business Education of ESCET, Enugu with the greater scope of effectively delivering improved entrepreneurship education and student numbers be enlarged to be utilized in service of our nation’s depressed economy.

INTRODUCTION

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is a very powerful instrument for inculcating competencies necessary for enhanced economic development of any nation.  It is highly relevant in the society today. Acquisition of appropriate ICT competencies, skills and knowledge has been identified as one of the major problems facing developing countries, Nigeria is inclusive. The advent of ICT has triggered off a new method of teaching and learning, thus making moribund the older methods of traditional classroom. It is increasingly pervading today’s modern education enterprises both locally and internationally and has practically affected every aspect of office work.  The very nature of ICT is characterized with innovations.  Ntukidem (2000) observed that with the rapid innovation in ICT, one more sophisticated computer outdates the other. One can comfortably watch events and lectures taking place thousands of kilometres away from one’s home or transmit messages to a very far distance within seconds. The cumulative effects of these dramatic changes are altering the basic construct of society and the way we study, live, work and play. The development of E-mail, internet, telecommunications, microelectronics, and other information technology resources are hinged on computer technology. One therefore will not be mistaken to assert that ICT is the nerve centre of the electronic world. The ICT resources have reduced the long labour hours of lecturers and students to mere pressing of buttons to attain a more effective and efficient instructional delivery. The presence of these innovations in ICT has created a glaring need for lecturers to acquire more ICT competences and skills in order to bring up the calibre of graduates that will fit squarely into the modern challenging work trends.  Folundo and Fadare (2007) observed that many polytechnics lecturers in Nigeria lack basic practical skills and transfer of secretarial skills. Chibuike and Igboke (2009) found that ICT content taught to Business Education students in Nigerian tertiary institutions was generally inadequate in all the institutions producing business educators in Nigeria.    In view of the above it was feared that OTM lecturers in polytechnics in South East geopolitical zone of Nigeria might not possess substantive ICT competencies to enable them bring up students for computerized office jobs in this era of globalisation.  The problem therefore was to identify the ICT competencies required by the OTM lecturers that will enable them produce graduates that are adequately ICT compliant.  The main purpose of the study was to ascertain the ICT competencies required by OTM lecturers in polytechnics in the South East geopolitical zone of Nigeria for effective teaching and learning in order to achieve qualitative education.  Specifically the study was designed to ascertain the: I. Word Processing Competencies; II. Spreadsheet Application Competencies; III. Power Point Presentation Competencies; IV. Database Management System Competencies; V. Desktop Publishing Competencies and VI. Webpage Design Application Competencies required by OTM lecturers in polytechnics in South East geopolitical zone of Nigeria. Six Research Questions and six hypotheses in line with six specific purposes guided the study.  Relevant literature was reviewed under the following major subheadings: Conceptual framework, Theoretical framework, Review of Empirical studies and Summary of review of related literature.

METHODOLOGY

The design of the study was a descriptive survey. The study was carried out in all the polytechnics in South East geopolitical zone of Nigeria comprising Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo States with particular reference to ICT Competencies Required by OTM lecturers in polytechnics in this zone.  The population of the study covered the 150 OTM lecturers in Federal, State and Private polytechnics in the five states in South East geopolitical zone of Nigeria.  The researcher used the entire population without sampling because the number was small and manageable and according to research experts should be studied in its entirety in order to obtain a more reliable result (Nwana 1981) and Abugu (2008).  A structured questionnaire containing parts 1 and 2 was used. Part 1 dealt with  demographic data and part 2 was divided into 6 sections based on the research questions and had 95 items altogether broken into Sections: A and F had 14 items each, B 17, C 16, D 15 and E 19 in accordance with the specific purposes of the study.  The instrument was structured to elicit information from respondents on a five point scale thus: Very Highly Required (5); Highly Required (4) Moderately Required (3) Lowly Required (2) and Not Required (1).  The instrument was face-validated by five experts – two in Business Education, two in Computer Science and one in Measurement and Evaluation.  The 150 copies of the questionnaire were administered and collected personally by the researcher and research assistants to ensure accuracy of the data for the study.  Five were considered useless hence 145 were used for the study. The data collected from the respondents were used to compute the reliability coefficient using Cronbach Alpha Statistical Method.  A reliability coefficient Index value of 0.71 was obtained which was considered high enough to be used for the study. The data generated from the study were analysed using Mean with Standard Deviation and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).  The Mean with Standard Deviation was used to answer the Research Questions in order to obtain the measure of spread of the respondents’ opinions.  Null hypotheses 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 were tested using t-test statistics while null hypothesis 2 was tested using One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).  These statistical tools were considered appropriate for the study.

RESULTS

After data analyses the major findings were summarized. I  The OTM lecturers considered all the fourteen suggested Word Processing application competencies as required.  The hypothesis revealed that male and female OTM lecturers did not differ significantly in their opinions of the required Word Processing application competencies. II The OTM lecturers considered all the seventeen suggested Spreadsheet application competencies as required.  The hypothesis revealed that Federal, State and Private polytechnics OTM lecturers differed significantly in their opinions of the required Spreadsheet application competencies. III The OTM lecturers considered all the sixteen suggested PowerPoint Presentation competencies as required.  The hypothesis revealed that experienced and less experienced OTM lecturers differed significantly in their opinions of the required PowerPoint Presentation competencies. IV The OTM lecturers considered all the fifteen suggested Database Management System competencies as required.  The hypothesis revealed that experienced and less experienced OTM lecturers differed significantly in their opinions of the required Database Management System competencies. V  The OTM lecturers considered all the nineteen suggested Desktop Publishing application competencies as required.  The hypothesis revealed that experienced and less experienced OTM lecturers did not differ significantly in their opinions of the required Desktop Publishing application competencies. VI. The OTM lecturers considered all the fourteen suggested Webpage Design application competencies as required.  The hypothesis revealed that male and female OTM lecturers differed significantly in their opinions of the required Webpage Design application competencies. Relevant discussions were made with regard to findings on the Research Questions and Hypotheses.  Recommendations included that: the NBTE should review the (2004) OTM curriculum vis-à-vis modern ICT requirements.  Recruitment and employment of OTM lecturers and even assigning them to administrative positions in OTM Departments should not be gender-biased.  Conferences, workshops, seminars and symposia should be constantly organized by professional bodies and other stakeholders to create awareness on the need for proficiency in ICT. OTM lecturers who are still deficient in the above listed ICT competencies should also make personal efforts to update themselves in order to be more effective and efficient in presenting lectures on ICT related courses.

The data statistically when analysed revealed among others facts,

*1. OTM lecturers required more ICT competencies for effective and efficient instructional delivery in entrepreneurship education in a depressed economy and

**2. The levels of education OTM lecturers as well as their duration of experience had no significant influence on the results of our assessment of ICT benefits in the zone. 

***3. Our conclusions and recommendations included that acquisition of adequate ICT competencies will make for a better efficiency in lecturing and will also guarantee effectiveness in instructional delivery in entrepreneurship education in our schools.

CONCLUSION:

WE NEED A MORE SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT AND AN EXPERIMENTAL LABORATORY AT ESCET

I had spent sixty minutes browsing the Internet, got tired of the oppressiveness world news tit-bits and the depravity of the average human reports of human tragedies all around the globe, switched off, went to see whether I could still grab an hour’s sleep before my family wakes up. I tossed around for a while as sleep refused to come around also, then came this surprise inspiration or conclusive revelation or dissertation came tumbling down as usual. My small computing room/clinic was next door, and I rushed as Archimedes did, IN MY BIRTH SUIT to type it out before it disappears! That has been the practice since 1991!

“MY SON, GOODNESS OR ITS OPPOSITE EXISTS IN HUMAN BEINGS AS YOU SCIENTISTS DESCRIBE GENOTYPES AND PHENOTYPES” end of dictation! The rest will be painstakingly assembled during the next thiety days! I returned to bed, a naked Adam, protected by the darkness in my bedroom as I had switched off the computer light. Of course there was NO CURRENT FROM OUR EEDC/ELECTRICITY suppliers, as is usual !

Religion, which is superstition sanctioned by the state, is actually an addiction to man-made doctrines and dogmas invented, patented and copyrighted by a few demagogues.
• It enslaves the mind more than psychoactive drugs,
• Benumbs human creativity and resourcefulness thereby
• Restricting the development of the human potential and capital.
It is the main cause of poverty of the mind and underdevelopment of third world countries as its side-effects are indolence, redundancy, laziness and dependence of finished products and services. In the final analysis, it is the predisposing factor to lack of initiative, debilitating ignorance, fetish belief-systems, abject poverty and perennial ill-health.

Perhaps its only advantage is that it makes the polity docile and amenable to the whims and caprices of their oppressive leaders. Often, it hoodwinks its adherents into believing that ‘The God’ or ‘the gods’ they worship speak to them through the voices of their egocentric clerics who therefore can conveniently exploit them to satisfy their demonic desires of sensual pleasure and inordinate ambitions of amassing wealth. Their wanton indulgence in gluttony, wine and women is seen in every action and definitely this is the foolproof evidence of their demonic genealogy.

The Creator has hidden so much from our intellectual faculties that to date we are still unravelling those He is allowing humanity to glimpse at through divine dreams, intuitions, inspirations and revelations to devout souls! Do you want to have supernatural knowledge mediated by spiritual faculties of seeing, feeling, sensing and caring for others? Look inwards, for the kingdom of God is inside you, not outside as many preachers tell you. No one ever got eternal bliss by keeping the commandments of men. It is given to altruistic seekers of that Divine Guidance in the affairs of mankind, which many yearn for but do not know where, when and how to find it. Search for it in this book!

The creator gave humans some of his powers and knowledge for recreating the material universe for the mutual benefits of all his created beings but today many use his gifts to perpetrate evil. Either by design or demonic manipulation, the obverse is the case; the first datum that every living thing recognises is that someone put it here and caters for its welfare. Dogs respect and fight in defence of their owners. Every pet realises that it is loved and taken care of by someone who has value for its existence. It is human who pride themselves of being rational beings that do not recognise, respect or realise that all of us have a single owner. It is absurd! Some believe there is an Almighty Creator who provides for each creature on daily basis, some assert that he has turned his back on us due to our congenital wickedness and cruel ways, while others simply deny his existence!

This is my summation of the problem; “Religion was/is a superstitious search by humanity for its origin, existence, meaning and relevance before the scientific era. The search was led by acclaimed sages among the elders of a community who defined its theories and practices. It is later ratified and recommended for legislation and implementation by state apparatus by convincing stratagem or coercion by politico-religious leaders. Thereafter, it is fine tuned and administered by ordained priests and priestesses who hand it down along ancestral lineages from one generation of lukewarm adherents, fanatics and mystics to another. Gradually, strong personalities emerge claiming divine appointment and so pull strong followers who idolise them as role models with supernatural powers. This obsession confirms them as beacons of adulation and finally leads to full scale idolatry.

INTRODUCTION TO INTEGRATIONAL SPIRITAN MOVEMENT
The Computer-Age Spiritual Fellowship for Citizens of Our Global Village

Many people are mere conformists. They are those personalities that are satisfied with ‘going through the motions’; doing what everyone else is doing to make a living and waiting for the final ‘call to glory’ as they brand death! Many of us are born and live an inconsequential life; bland, uneventful and without anything particular to be remembered for after our exit from this mundane world, a temporal habitation for the soul. There are some others, whose lives and contributions to the society made a difference! They changed the ‘status quo’ by either extending the frontiers of knowledge or developing their immediate communities. They improved the understanding of human nature and taught others the values of humanitarianism. These heroes and heroines touched the lives of many both inter-racially and internationally.

They added colour to the doldrums of routine existence on planet earth!
A few had tall dreams and went ahead to transform them into reality despite all odds. This group devised methods of changing the deplorable situations and the deprived circumstances of the lifestyle they met on becoming adults. Some adolescents dream of the courage to better their social status, but often take off on the wrong foot of seeking for titles, money, fame and crowning it all with indulging in romantic relationships.

Others dared to pursue the unknown, to break new grounds and blaze trails for followers to tread on. Their zeal, inquisitiveness, passion, persistence, desire, motivations and prayers were fully rewarded if they paid the prize for success; optimism, dedication and the refusal to quit. Their philosophy of life was ‘When the task gets tough, the tough get it going!’, ‘Never say, never again!’ or ‘All that it takes to make the impossible possible is the power to remove the ‘im’ in front of the possible!’

They eventually became geniuses, inventors, explorers, leaders or discoverers! They evolved into the innovators and pioneers who helped to enlarge the frontiers of human civilisations and removed the age-old boundaries of the unknown. Joining this select group of animators or league of achievers is usually not by accident or by mere wishful thinking. Beyond desire and hard work is a divine factor that must be recognised, respected and appropriated in unveiling the unknown that the Divine Architect had hidden there for ages waiting for a brave soul to convert it from obscure dormancy to utilitarian vibrancy. This author, Dr Kenez wants to know where you belong in this universal continuum. Or, are you waiting for ‘manna from heaven’?

; RELIGIOUS FANATICISM HAS NEVER BEEN INCLUDED IN ANY DIAGNOSTIC AND STATISTICAL MANUAL AS AN ILLNESS

We are in the Internet age and in our scientific global village, we do not need armchair philosophers any more. They have done us enough damage.

FANATICISM IS A PSYCHIATRIC ILLNESS AND SO IS MYSTICISM AS BOTH CONSTITUTE THE TWO SIDES OF A COIN NAMELY EXCESSIVE INDULGENCE IN RELIGION

I had the singular opportunity of critically studying religious excesses from 1980 – 1982 at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital, Benin, Nigeria as it was the topic I chose and researched on as my M.Sc. dissertation in Mental Health.

I was forced to develop a brand new paper-and-pencil psychological test as there was none in existence as at the material time the Guyana Mass Religious Suicide occurred in Jonestown. Just type Jonestown Mass Suicide into your favourite search engine in the Internet now and read about Rev. Jones and his congregation of more than 900 than drank poison.

Jonestown Mass Suicide
The dead bodies of members of the People’s Temple Commune lie before the “throne” of the cult’s leader, Jim Jones, in Jonestown, Guyana. Acting on Jones’s orders, more than 900 cult members committed suicide at the Jonestown commune in 1978 by consuming a cyanide-laced soft drink. The quotation on the wall is from American philosopher George Santayana.

It shocked the world for three years, but did it stop people from becoming fanatics, NO, it did not.
And so, to date, Karl Marx; RELIGION IS THE OPIUM OF THE MASSES, remains a true dictum by a non-medical person that depicts how addictive religion can really be.
“Karl Marx, who believed history was driven by purely material considerations, took a dim view of religious faith, calling it “the opium of the masses” in his writings. The Soviet regime’s Marxist roots and its antipathy toward all social associations and belief systems not under its direct control made it openly opposed to religion from the outset. Shortly after 1917 it impounded the property of the Russian Orthodox Church, forbade religious instruction, instituted antireligious propaganda, and persecuted priests. Atheistic fervor, having abated in the 1920s, reached a crescendo after 1929, when thousands of churches were shut down and razed, only to ebb in the late 1930s and to yield during World War II to pragmatic concessions to believers. The crusade against religion was revived by Khrushchev, then toned down under Brezhnev and Gorbachev.

Bertrand Russell, a renowned British philosopher who pioneered STRAIGHT & CROOKED THINKING argued that 2 plus 2 is 4; a fact in mathematics accepted by all and no one quarrels about it because it is FACT but if or when you force people to agree 2 plus 2 is 5, it ceases to be a FACT, it becomes faith and ends as a problem.

The most savage controversies are those about matters as to which there is no good evidence either way.
There's a Bible on that shelf there. But I keep it next to Voltaire—poison and antidote.
I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organized in its Churches, has been and still is the principle enemy of moral progress in the world.

Dr Kenez traced its aetiological roots more psycho-philosophically when he stated in his M.Sc. dissertation of 1982; BELIEF ONLY BECOMES NECESSARY WHEN THERE ARE NO LOGICAL FACTS or EVIDENT PROOFS of a FABRICATED LIE or FALSE THEORY propounded by a demagogue, so it naturally transforms into A DOCTRINE or a DOGMA. That is the beginning of dissension and the remote genesis of any brand of FANATICISM or MYSTICISM.
In the mathematical analyses preceding a concise formula to develop the required PAPER-&-PENCIL TEST after twelve months of psychometric somersaults, real painful academic rigmaroles or the needed scientific jingoism; his proposed this simplified one; FANATICISM results when STRONG WILL pathologically combines with NARROW-MINDEDNESS …. And as a corollary of the flipside of the coin; MYSTICISM only results when a WEAK WILL pathologically combines with same NARROW-MINDEDNES.

rf = sw(nm) whereas rm = ww(nm)
Therefore “ f “ is a factor that could stand for any other human disposition that is addictive; Politics, Football, Religion or Music

INTRODUCING MY SONS TO IGBO CULTURE 1997'

THE TRUTH BEHIND

THE JONESTOWN MASSACRE

On November 18, 1978, 913 people died in Jonestown, a small compound carved out of the jungles of Guyana, a small country on the northeast coast of South America. The media at the time reported that it was a fanatical group of followers of the Rev. Jim Jones, lead to the jungles of South America to get away from the oppression of life here in America. They also reported that his followers willingly followed their leader into the great beyond by sipping on some cyanide cocktails, flavored with purple Kool-Aid. In fact, the notion of a mass suicide at Jonestown has been repeated so many times that it is accepted as fact, and the association is so strong that when most people hear "Jonestown," the first thing which pops in their head is "Kool-Aid." This association is false. WHAT THE MEDIA WON'T TELL YOU: JIM JONES WAS A CIA OPERATIVE CONDUCTING MIND CONTROL EXPERIMENTS The source of the "Kool-Aid Suicide" stories was the U.S. State Department, which presented the story immediately after the "suicides" were reported as though it was the only obvious truth. A U.S. Army spokesman pronounced with complete authority, "No autopsies are needed. The cause of death is not an issue here." The bodies were then allowed to rot in the jungle. Despite the lack of need for autopsies, Dr. C. Leslie Mootoo, the top Guyanese pathologist, was at Jonestown hours after the deaths, and, refusing the assistance of U.S. pathologists, accompanied the teams that examined the bodies. His conclusions? Dr. Mootoo found fresh needle marks at the back of the left shoulder blades on 80 to 90 percent of the victims. Others had been shot or strangled. A surviving witness stated that those who resisted were forced by armed guards to comply. Dr. Mootoo's opinion, and that of the Guyanese grand jury investigating Jonestown, was that all but three (only two of which were suicides) were murdered by "persons unknown." If one was to go over the deaths in Auschwitz, it is almost a certainty, considering the horrendous conditions those who were there were under, that 0.2 % of all deaths could be attributed to suicides. Yet if anyone was to argue that Auschwitz was a suicide camp housing a bunch of religious freaks and not the compounds of murder that they were, they would (rightfully) be condemned for intellectual dishonesty, and their motives would be questioned.The suicide hoax is merely the beginning of the deception. The original death count was 408 (an odd number to use if the number was an estimate), with the added claim that 700 had fled into the jungle. The final total was changed to 913. To explain this rather minor difference in arithmetic, American authorities first explained that those backward ignorant Guyanese "could not count." Perhaps because the first "official" explanation of the bad math was so insulting, it was then proposed that they missed a pile of bodies, as if a pile of dead bodies is something that is easily overlooked. Finally, the official explanation that settled the whole question was presented: Bodies were stacked on top of each other. Of the 150 photos taken of the massacre, not one shows any body lying under any others. Those who first worked on the bodies, to release the gasses of decay, had to puncture the dead, making it unlikely that they missed anyone. These facts aside, one must wonder how 408 bodies -- 82 belonging to children -- could cover 505 others. Talk about bad math. With minor exceptions, pictures show the dead were found in neat rows, face down. The pictures also show drag marks leading to the bodies, indicating that victims were murdered elsewhere and placed there by someone else. These facts have lead to a more likely conclusion: 408 was indeed the correct original body count. The other 505 were hunted down and slaughtered, then dragged back. But who would do such a thing, and why? Furthermore, why were American officials giving such deceptive answers about Jonestown? To answer these questions, one must unravel the mystery of a man named Jim Jones. Jones became a Bible-thumping "faith healer," using wet chicken livers as evidence of cancer which he removed by "divine powers." He adopted eight children, some black, some white. Already the stench of criminal activity surrounded him, and his landlady referred to him as "a gangster who used the Bible instead of a gun." Fortunately for Jones, the local police chief at the time was Dan Mitrione, a friend from childhood. Mitrione kept him from being arrested or run out of town. Mitrione would later enter the International Police Academy, a CIA front for training counterinsurgency and torture techniques. Despite having few sources for known funds, Jones found enough money to travel with his wife and family to Brazil in 1961. Coincidentally, Mitrione was there as well, having advanced quickly in the IPA. Mitrione had honed his skills at torture and assassination by practicing on kidnapped beggars. He himself was later kidnapped and murdered by guerrillas in Uruguay, an incident which became the basis of the Costa Gavras film State of Siege. Jones made regular trips to Belo Horizonte, site of CIA headquarters in Brazil -- and Mitrione's town of residence. Apparently, this wasn't the only curious intelligence link to Jones. He told some of his neighbors that he was involved in the U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence. The U.S. embassy provided Jones with transportation, groceries, and a large home. Considering his dear friendship to Mitrione and the funding of "ministries" in Latin America by the CIA, the theory that Jones was a U.S. intelligence asset makes quite a bit of sense. In any case, according to his neighbor, Jones "lived like a rich man."Soon after the JFK assassination, Jones returned to the states with $10,000. In 1965, he formed the first People's Temple in Ukiah, California, and set up Happy Havens Rest Home. Without trained personnel or proper licensing, Jones' camp drew in prisoners, the elderly, people from mental institutions, and 150 foster children, many of whom were transferred by court order. Among those who contacted him: "missionaries" from World Vision (an international evangelical order that often fronts for the CIA); the local chapter head to the John Birch Society; and leaders of the Republican party, for whom his "church" members conducted voter organization and fund-raising activities for the Dick Nixon '68 campaign. Jones' advisors included a mercenary from UNITA, the CIA-backed Angola army. Also jumping on board was the Layton family, whose patriarch, U.C.-Berkeley chemist Dr. Laurence Laird Layton, had worked on the Manhattan Project. Dr. Layton was also chief of the Army's Chemical Warfare Division in the early 1950's. (Mrs. Layton was the daughter of Hugo Phillips, a German banker/stockbroker who became rich representing Siemans & Halske and I.G. Farben, two notorious Nazi Holocaust profiteers.) Despite his rather right-wing background, Jones suddenly declared himself a liberal socialist -- in fact, he called himself a dual reincarnation of both Jesus Christ and Lenin. At this point, a cloud of suspicion began to gather around his church, which was staffed by jack-booted armed thugs who dressed in black uniforms. Jones took everything he could from his followers, much of it in the form of welfare and social security checks, using blackmail, extortions, and any other available means. The local press reported about seven mysterious deaths of those who attempted to leave the "church" due to conflicts with Jones. Accusations of kidnapping, beatings, and sexual abuse began to circulate. To escape controversy, Jones moved to San Francisco and became an important fundraiser for the Bay area political establishment. Soon, he was schmoozing with the liberal and radical elite, meeting with (among others) Rosalynn Carter and Angela Davis. Jones was rewarded by being put in charge of the city Housing Commission, and key followers were awarded jobs in the Welfare Department. The bulk of Jones' flock came from the unemployed and dispossessed people found there. The cult preyed on the poor and helpless, going out of its way to enlist women, children and minorities. Many members were recruited directly from San Francisco mental hospitals. However, the move to San Francisco did little to quiet the controversy surrounding his "church," and a 1977 expose put Jones on the defensive. He then moved his Utopia to Guyana, aided once again by the U.S. Embassy. After receiving complaints lodged by relatives of cult members, Congressman Leo Ryan visited Jonestown on November 18, 1978 to investigate allegations of human rights abuses. Congressman Ryan, a noted CIA critic, had authored the Hughes-Ryan Amendment, which would have required the CIA to disclose to Congress -- in advance -- details of all covert operations. The State department offered Ryan no answers or assistance, despite numerous inquiries. He arrived with U.S. embassy official Richard Dwyer, as well as some journalists. Among the reporters was Tim Reiterman, who had covered the Patty Hearst story for the San Francisco Examiner. In all likelihood, Ryan already suspected what was really going on at Jonestown. That was when all hell broke loose. At the airstrip, Leo Ryan soon became the first congressman to die in the line of duty, along with four reporters. (The Hughes-Ryan Amendment was killed in Congress soon afterwards.) The assassins were described by witnesses as "glassy eyed," "mechanically-walking zombies," and "devoid of any emotion." Dwyer and Reiterman were also shot. Soon after that, the mass slaughter began. A plausible explanation for the events that unfolded is that Jim Jones (or someone else) ordered the murders after Ryan's unexpected visit threatened to expose what was happening. In the chaos that followed, a mass extermination was carried out. Just who were the zombie assassins? Well, besides the 913 dead, 167 survivors returned from the camp. All news reports concede that there were at least 1100 individuals at the camp (and most reports place the number at 1200.) Who are these 200 or more people unaccounted for? The survivors report that there was a special all-white group that was well-armed, well-treated and free to exit the compound. These guards were never accounted for by any news reports. Perhaps it is these same guards (assuming the total population was 1200) whom a congressional aide was referring to in an Associated Press quote which stated, "There are 120 white, brainwashed assassins out from Jonestown awaiting the trigger word to pick up their hit." Of course, they may have had a little help. Over 300 U.S. Green Berets -- trained for CIA covert assassinations -- were in the area at the time. So were nearly 600 British Black Watch commandos, who were in Guyana conducting a "training exercise." Suddenly, the death toll seems relatively low. The killings didn't stop in Guyana. Nine days later, San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk were slain by Dan White, who was either a "disgruntled police agent" or someone who was "angry about gays." These explanations were supplied to explain his utterly irrational behavior during the killings; sure enough, he was described as being in a bizarre "zombie state." During White's trial, his lawyers came up with the inventive but deservedly mocked "Twinkie defense," in which they claimed he went insane during a sugar high induced by eating too many sweets. Moscone and Milk received substantial financial backing from Jim Jones during his stay by the Bay; afterwards they were both investigated in connection to missing funds from the People's Temple. That is, until a "lone gunman" took them out. Michael Prokes, a Jones aide, held a press conference and stated that the CIA and FBI were withholding an audiotape of the massacre. He also stated that he was an FBI informant. Right after that, he went to the restroom... and never left. His death was proclaimed a "suicide." In Georgetown, several more Temple members were killed following the Guyana massacre. The man charged with the murders, Charles Beikman, was an early follower of Jones who had become an "adopted son." Beikman was also a Green Beret. Jeanne and Al Mills, who were writing a book on Jonestown, were bound and shot to death at their home. In Detroit another survivor was killed near his home, and yet another was involved in a mass murder of school children in Los Angeles. Ironically, the dead may not have included Jim Jones himself. The body alleged to be his didn't show his tattoos in the photographs. Fingerprints had to be checked twice, and his dental records were never looked at. He was known to use doubles. As the massacre unfolded, Jones can be heard on a tape recording yelling, "Get Dwyer out of here!" Richard Dwyer was later found at the airstrip, methodically washing his hands. In 1968, Dwyer was listed in the publication Who's Who in the CIA. When asked if the allegation was true, he replied, "No comment." Of course, Dwyer wasn't the only link to the CIA in Guyana. Besides those previously mentioned, U.S. ambassador John Burke and another official named Richard McCoy were both heavily involved with the intelligence community. The U.S. embassy in Georgetown also housed the Georgetown CIA station. At the time, Guyana had a socialist government, and thus was a likely target for covert operations. Dan Webber, sent to Guyana after the massacre, was also with the CIA. The "official" attorney for the survivors, Joseph Blatchford, was involved in a scandal involving CIA infiltration of the Peace Corps. Then we have the missing money that just "disappeared" after the slaughter. Conservative estimates place the amount at $26 million. Others place it at $2 billion. At the time, a major international money laundering operation was headquartered in Italy, involving the Vatican and a fascist quasi-Masonic lodge known as the P-2, or Propaganda Duo. (This operation probably led to the murder of Pope John Paul I -- but that's another conspiracy.) The CIA-linked P-2 had a major operation located in Panama, not too far from Jonestown. Add in the FBI files on the Black Panthers and Weathermen found at the site, an attempt to lure Mark Lane (JFK assassination critic and James Earl Ray lawyer, among other things) and Donald Freed (Lane's sometime JFK collaborator and Simpson case investigator who linked the Brentwood murders to Mafia in the L.A. underworld) to Guyana (which succeeded in having Lane witness the airstrip murders after Jones hired him as a lawyer), and a bizarre plot to kidnap Grace Walden Stephens (a key Martin Luther King assassination witness) and smuggle her to Jonestown, and you have the makings of a full fledge spook operation. One of the strangest CIA connections to Jonestown was the previously mentioned World Vision, an evangelical order which often fronts for the CIA. They performed espionage work for the CIA in Southeast Asia while Operation Phoenix (the murderous project that left 40,000 people dead) was in full effect. In Honduras, they maintained a presence at CIA contra recruiting camps in the war against the Sandinistas. In Lebanon, the fascist Phalange butchered Palestinians at World Vision's camp. In Cuba, their refugee camps hosted numerous members of the anti-Castro terrorist group Alpha 66 of Bay of Pigs fame. After the Guyana massacre, World Vision developed a scheme to repopulate Jonestown with CIA-linked mercenaries from Laos. Laos, of course, was where the CIA was running it's "secret war" during Vietnam, which for the most part was a smokescreen for a widespread opium trafficking operation. One particularly important World Vision official was John Hinckley, Sr., an oil man, reputed CIA officer, and friend of George Bush. You may have heard of his son. Less than four months before Hinckley Jr. became known as Jodie Foster's biggest fan, another member of the World Vision order, Mark Chapman, gunned down John Lennon in what may have been a practice run for the bigger hit on President Reagan. One of the policemen who found him was convinced that he was a mind-controlled assassin. Chapman was clutching a copy of the novel Catcher in the Rye, which was also owned by John Hinckley Jr. (The book was written by J.D. Salinger, who worked in military intelligence with Henry Kissinger during World War II.) Before going to trial, Chapman plead guilty after a voice in his head (which he attributed it to God) commanded him to do so. Considering the history of World Vision and what went on previously in Guyana, it is possible that the real purpose behind repopulating Jonestown was to create another breeding ground for brainwashed zombies like Chapman and Hinckley. Nearby Jonestown there was a place called Hilltown, a compound of 8,000 blacks that followed cult leader Rabbi David Hill, who held his flock with an iron fist. Hill had so much power that he was referred to as the "vice prime minister" of Guyana. There was also another place in Guyana called "Johnstown," as well as similar operations in the Phillipines and Chile. It appears that Jonestown (and World Vision's later attempt) is hardly the exception to the rule of using obscure locations in Third World nations as laboratories for covert cult operations. The Jonestown site in Guyana was originally a Union Carbide mine, and was loaded with an abundance of precious natural resources. It is very likely that the site was chosen to exploit these resources with cheap labor -- and cheap labor was plentiful. Members of Jim Jones' "church" were bound and gagged immediately after landing in Guyana and taken to the compound. They were pumped with drugs, which were available in vast amounts at Jonestown -- enough to drug 200,000 people for more than a year. Among the drugs found there: Quaaludes, Valium, morphine, Demerol, Thorazine (a dangerous tranquilizer), sodium pentathol (a truth serum), chloral hydrate (a hypnotic chemical agent), thallium (which confuses thinking), and, of course, cyanide. Jonestown residents lived in cramped quarters and ate meager rations of often spoiled food. They were then forced to give 16 to 18 hours of slave labor per day. When they weren't working, they were required to stay up day and night listening to Jim Jones lecture. Among the charming punishments the flock endured were forced druggings, sensory deprivation in an underground box, physical torture, and public sexual rape and humiliation, not to mention your average ordinary beatings and verbal abuse. All of the drugs and environmental conditions forced upon Jonestown residents were also employed in the CIA's notorious MKULTRA program, which was implemented to test and implement brainwashing and mind control techniques. A 1974 government report admitted that certain "target populations" were used, namely blacks, women, prisoners, the elderly, children, and inmates of psychiatric wards. The Center for the Study and Reduction of Violence, using the research of Strangelovian doctors Jose Delgado and Louis "Jolly" West, drew guinea pigs from the "target populations" to test drugs, implants, and psychosurgery techniques at an isolated military missile base in California. The dead at Jonestown were 90% women, 80% black, and included 276 children. WHEN THE BODIES WERE SHIPPED BACK TO AMERICA, THERE WERE NO AUTOPSIES DONE, THEY WERE BURIED, AND THE FAMILIES WERE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE THEM Which leads us back to Auschwitz and the ultimate deja vu. Auschwitz, after all, was not just a death camp: It was also a slave labor camp for Nazi military-industrial monolith I.G. Farben. There, the outcasts and refuse of society who no one cared about faced similar abuses, while an elite few profited from their misery. The brains behind the Final Solution became the brains behind MKULTRA. The MK is often said to stand for "Mind Kontrol" -- representing the Germanic origins of the project. Going the full ten yards, however, it is possible that MK merely stands for "Mein Kampf". Congressman Ryan probably suspected that Jonestown was a front for sinister covert activity. In 1980, Ryan aide Joseph Holsinger received a paper entitled "The Penal Colony," which explained that CIA MKULTRA operations did not terminate in 1973, as officially proclaimed, but instead continued in public hospitals, prisons, and religious cults which were used as fronts. Holsinger later stated at a San Francisco psychology forum on Jonestown that he believed the CIA worked with Jones to perform medical and mind control experiments at People's Temple. If Congressman Ryan had not been killed -- a big if -- many skeletons in the CIA's closet may have been exposed. Michael Meiers, author of "Was Jonestown a CIA Medical Experiment?" had this to say: "The Jonestown experiment was conceived by Dr. Layton, staffed by Dr. Layton and financed by Dr. Layton. It was as much his project as it was Jim Jones's." Layton, remember, was head of the Army's Chemical Warfare Division. Former Temple member Joyce Shaw wondered if Jonestown was "some kind of horrible government experiment, or some sort of sick, racist thing... a plan like that of the Germans, to exterminate blacks." In October 1981, Jonestown survivors filed a $63 million lawsuit against Jonestown-era Secretary of State Cyrus Vance and CIA director Stansfield Turner. The suit stated that the State Department and CIA conspired to "enhance the economic and political powers of James Warren Jones," conducting "mind control and drug experimentation" there. The suit was dismissed four months later for "failure to prosecute timely," and all requests for appeal were denied. (Turner would become a director of Monsanto, now best known for providing the world with the brain-damaging, cancer causing poison bearing the innocuous moniker "NutraSweet".) All this, of course, is forgotten in official accounts of the events at Jonestown. Instead, the more palatable -- but less accurate -- version of the Jonestown story blames the victims, echoing the ignorant grunt uttered by Pete Hamill, who dismissed the dead as "all the loose change of the sixties."Hanging over Jonestown was a mocking sign that proclaimed, "THOSE WHO DO NOT REMEMBER THE PAST ARE CONDEMNED TO REPEAT IT." One of the most elegant slogans of Holocaust survivors is "Never forget." Jonestown makes it clear that, no matter how well meaning, all these slogans are but words. Never forget? We obviously already have. That Jonestown could unfold before our eyes without the realization of precisely what was going on says volumes. Certainly the blame falls partly at the feet of a powerful military-industrial complex that feels no shame for its deeds, and certainly partly at a Korporate Media that has become the witting mouthpiece (and collaborator) for this same cabal. But ultimately, the blame falls at the feet of the people, their brains dulled by sitcoms and soap operas, their reality gradually drawn within the boundaries of the cathode ray tube. By the time the Guyana massacre rolled around, the masses were too ignorant and apathetic to know or care about the truth. Instead, they swallowed the official version and waited obediently for the next big lie. What's worse, the truth itself has become untenable. Instead of outrage and calls for justice, attacks are most often leveled at those who openly question the official account of the Jonestown massacre, or OTHER government/media coverups. Witness the treatment of people trying to expose the lies and coverups surrounding 9-11. Or try bringing the 9-11 coverup, Jonestown, or any of the other hundreds of covert government operations up in polite company and see the kind of response you get. Could the Holocaust happen again? It already has, and will continue to happen. One wonders if it ever really ended. Robert Sterling - R.J.E. DECEPTIONS, INTRIGES, SUBTERFUGES  ARE THE HALLMARKS OF CIA, NSO, MI6, KGB, and so on.....
