MKDELTA, like its parent project MKULTRA, was a mind control and interrogation operation run by the Central Intelligence Agency. It involved the use of biochemicals in clandestine operations.

According to the Church Committee report (Book I, Chapter XVII):

A special procedure, designated MKDELTA, was established to govern the use of MKULTRA materials abroad. Such materials were used on a number of occasions. Because MKULTRA records were destroyed, it is impossible to reconstruct the operational use of MKULTRA materials by the CIA overseas; it has been determined that the use of these materials abroad began in 1953, and possibly as early as 1950[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Drugs were used primarily as an aid to interrogations, but MKULTRA/MKDELTA materials were also used for harassment, discrediting, or disabling purposes[6] [7] [8] [9] [10]

Popular culture

  • M.K.DELTA is the name of a track about mind control by the UK band Subgenerates.
