## Resource

MKUltra was a top secret program, facilitated by US Intelligence services, that aimed to perfect mind control and create the perfect american "zombie" assassins, who could kill on command and forget the entire operation after it was finished. However, as the trials began and people began to suffer and die, people tried to raise the alarm about the program... and few survived to tell the tale.
