CONCLUSION• The aim of finding drugs in MK-ULTRA programme was to irresistibly bring out deep
confessions or wipe a subject's mind clean and program him or her as "a robot agent.“
• But the MK-ULTRA project turned out to be a monstrous failure, in terms of its consequences.
• In 1977 the U.S. Senate released a report on the findings of Project MK-Ultra, which revealed to the U.S that CIA had indeed been testing on unwitting citizens, and that the tests involved LSD, and there have been known deaths from the activities.
• But due to the lack of evidences the clear number of deaths still remains uncertain.
• The revelations/allegations about the CIA and the Army prompted a number of subjects or their survivors to file lawsuits against the federal government for conducting experiments without informed consent.
• Although several plaintiffs did receive compensation through court order.
• MK-Ultra plays a part in many conspiracy theories due to its nature and the destruction of most records.

• The MK-ULTRA project was a failure which led to the termination of the project on all scales.
• The MK-ULTRA project was terminated based on following points:
CIA agents started dosing each other with drugs in the office.
At least one death[Dr. Olson] have resulted from these activities.
Heroin addicts were lured into participating in LSD experiments in order to get a reward — heroin.
• Speaking of today’s scenario YES the project has been abandoned, but It’s unlikely the CIA has terminated all experimental psychological therapy and drug-testing programs.
• As the ever-changing climate of war suggests this type of experimentation isn’t going away anytime soon, either.
• Official documents state Project MK-Ultra was terminated in 1973, although later evidence suggested the program merely continued on under a different name.

IS MK-ULTRA A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY?• The common (false) perception is that U.S. Government scientists are so stupid as to spend over a billion
dollars over a period of 20 years incorporating nearly 100 academic institutions to reach the conclusion that LSD is not particularly effective at controlling peoples' minds (Well in that case- SURPRISE!!!!).
• It is true that using LSD in MK-ULTRA project produces unpredicted results, but this project is not only about LSD/LSD findings.
• In reality, project helped the United States government discovered that psychological torture, rather than physical torture, was far more effective in extracting information (both false and true) and inducing long-term pain in a subject, which could be a useful weapon in the future wars(if any).
