Human Target to President Obama: Ensure TI justice
and accept our help letter
"President Obama is committed to creating the most open and accessible
administration in American, (The White House: Contact the White House) so fifty-two year old widow, Heike Painter,
experiencing severe human rights abuses as a Targeted Individual (TI), wrote the letter below to the president,
pleading for his help and offering her help to him in return.
A Targeted Individual is someone targeted "by extreme forms of harassment such as ... Cointelpro... The target is
specifically singled out for deliberate psychological, social, targeting which has the ability to destroy their lives and
livelihoods over time." (Targeted Individuals: Frequently Asked Questions)
Carnage of Victims
The Central Intelligence Agency has hired private security contractor mercenaries such as Blackwater USA (Xe) for a
secret “locate and assassinate” program, according to government officials and reported by Stephen Crowley in The
New York Times.
What remains a government and mainstream media secret, however, is that the same program operates on U.S. soil
against innocent Americans. Cointelpro, that shocked the nation after the Church Committee investigation, never
ended according to former FBI agent, M. Wesley Swearingen. Allegations warrant attention that the new Cointelpro
operates globally under a different code name, more sophisticated, with access to modern weapons.
Letters about this home-grown terrorist program have been filed with government officials to expose this government
secret program and expunge the tens of thousand of innocent watch-listed targeted individuals. A call has been made to
Senate Judiciary Committee to conduct an investigation into the program ruining the lives of an untold number of
Americans through survellance and covert directed energy weapon assaults.
Mainstream news have conducted a blackout of Targeted Individual reports and instead report such items such as CIA
head, Leon Penetta had never been informed about this Cointelpro system of abuse, contrary to evidence by targeted
individuals presenting this information to high-level government officials, and mainstream press.
Bill Van Auken reported, "In 2001, President George W. Bush overturned Ford’s ruling ['barring the CIA from
directly carrying out assassinations or contracting them out to others'], issuing his own intelligence finding that such
restrictions no longer applied in the “global war on terrorism.” ( Global Research: Mercenaries and Assassins: The
Real Face of Obama's 'Good' War; Bill Van Auken, December 15, 2009)
"The Democrats offered no objections, and the media has treated it entirely as a matter of course, while blacking out
any serious reporting on the resulting carnage and victims," wrote Van Auken.
Even Targeted Individuals' pleas to human rights groups including Amnesty International, ACLU and ethical
psychologist organizations have fallen on deaf ears, with exception of only a few individual members. Such
organizations continue focusing on related abuses overseas, despite same abuses, including torture, consistently
reported by targets on American soil.
Ms. Painter, in her letter below, represents the cry for help of the over 600 American citizens surviving this organized
abuse well enough to communicate, those representing tens of thousands of others according to extrapolations from the
author's rudimentary data.
Letter to President Obama
Dear President Obama,
The last time I wrote to an American president was when I was a 12-year old girl living in East Germany. I asked
President Nixon to release the political activist Angela Davis from prison. Already at this age my heart went out
towards victims of injustice and prejudice.
Six years later, when I was 18, I spoke out about an injustice committed by the East German Government against one
of its citizens and - I was put into in prison myself. One year in a high security Stasi prison was followed by years of
Stasi surveillance and harassment. My life as a targeted individual began. My name was put on lists and volumes of
files were created about me.
33 years later, in the United States of America, I am finding myself on terrorist watch lists, high security airport lists
and the worst - under 24/7 satellite surveillance and electronic harassment. I have lived as a permanent resident since
1993 in this country. I am living a private life with no affiliation to any political group.
Am I a political activist? No, I have not earned this title.
But I have a love for truth and justice. And with this inner conviction I demonstrated in 2002 all by myself against the
coming war in Iraq – 6 month before it started, because it was clear to me, there were no weapons of mass
destruction.
The occasion was a visit of Jeb Bush to Key West. I can only assume that this act of free speech was the trigger, and in
the following years the huge machinery of security agencies came down on me – my name being transferred from one
list to another list to another list.
One night in June 2008, I found out that my neighbor who worked for the Coast Guard, Department of Homeland
Security, and had moved in the vacant apartment next to mine a couple month before, was using see-through-the-wall
devices on me every night. (based on microwave technology like the new airport screening devices, not only do you see
the person naked, but the intense microwave field has health deteriorating effects on the body). A day after I
confronted him about it, my life turned into a nightmare.
I experienced organized gang stalking, KKK-like intimidation, and attacks with radar, sonar and microwave weapons
technology around the clock. I needed to escape this terror and leave Key West. I lost within a couple of days
everything: my home, my job, my friends, my social environment. I feared not just for my physical health, but also for
my life.
I could not fathom the high-tech military-stile attacks on me. And I thought ”This must be a mistake! What do they
think, that I am a terrorist?”
But soon I was to discover that many other people here in the US have been having the same experience, almost into
the detail, like a script being followed from the perpetrators involved. And I learned that I and many others are
targeted individuals of a secret program that uses gang stalking, electronic surveillance, and electromagnetic
frequency technology to harass and assault the individual.
The targets of this program are mostly whistle blowers, political activists, peace activists, environmental activists and
ordinary people, like me, I guess. I would not know, if it includes terrorists, too – meaning I don't know if this is just
one big terrorist surveillance program or if there are different programs. One for terrorists and one for pacifists.
I just can't understand why at the same time we have the “Christmas bombing incident” with the failure of our
agencies and their lists. Why, for heavens sake, am I on all the lists and under satellite surveillance, when at the same
time, real terrorists are not?
Why am I, a 52 year old widow, who earns her living in the last years through cleaning jobs and, whose son finished
his third deployment in Afghanistan 2 month ago, why am I being treated like a most dangerous terrorist?
Did I terrorize anybody through my little peaceful stand against the coming Iraq war, a war that was sold to the
American public under false premisses?
Am I guilty of something? Yes.
I am not guilty of terrorist acts or war crimes. But I am guilty, like all of us, for not preventing the crime of War!
When people who see the truth of a situation and speak out about it are put on terrorist watch lists, when pacifists are
called terrorists and treated as such – as if they were enemies of human society - then human society is not only
morally bankrupt, but will fast decline into something less than human. Because the spirit of truth and the spirit of
freedom are foundation stones of human society, without them, the whole structure will crumble.Like the building of
the Third Reich needed to crumble, like the Wall needed to crumble.
The National Security Agency of East Germany – Stasi – used code words for the individuals in their files. The code
word they designated for me was “Pacifist.”
Why are security agencies, no matter what time in history, no matter what political system, no matter what country,
why are they scared of pacifists?
Your statement: “When the system fails, it is my responsibility.” is a statement worthy of a President who knows his
great obligation towards the people and towards history. And I humbly and boldly want to ask you to exercise your
responsibility and your authority in the failure of the system towards myself, as well as other individuals who were put
on lists by the Bush/Cheney administration.
For myself I can only ask you humbly, but for all the other victims of the system I need to ask you boldly. And with me
the Spirit of Martin Luther King is asking you boldly. He, who was my childhood hero, and in whose spirit I wrote to
President Nixon, back in the early seventies.
Now, I find myself in a situation, in which I need somebody who is speaking out for me! I have found no one yet. No
attorney wants to deal with with the secret program that is in place.
In the past it was called “Cointelpro” and it was directed against people like Martin Luther King and and other
human rights activists. Today it uses, in addition to gang stalking and harassment, electromagnetic frequency
technology in the micro wave range as well as the ultra and super sonic range, to not just monitor the individual in
their house visually and auditory, but to assault the targeted human beings.
After the Wall came down and the files of the Stasi were opened, it came to light that the Stasi was conducting
research, experimentation and application of these technologies already in the sixties and seventies. And it was used
covertly on political dissidents.
The same happened in Russia in this time period. After the change of the political system, Russia addressed in 1998 the
United Nation and the European Council with a proposal for an internationally convention banning the production,
dissemination and use of such technology, also known as: Information weapons, Directed Energy Weapons, Radio-
Frequency Weapons, Less Than Lethal Weapons, Microwave Weapons ….
In the Space Preservation Bill proposed by Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich in the U.S. House of Representatives in
2001 the same technologies were named: “land-based, sea-based or space-based systems using radiation,
electromagnetic, sonic, laser or other energies directed at individual persons or targeted population for the purpose of
information war, mood management or mind control of such persons or populations.” And we should not forget the
debilitating and deteriorating effects on the human nervous system and the human physical body.
Where is this leading humanity? Free thinking, free feeling, free willing and all free action, will disappear. We should
not remove, within a couple of years, the achievements of centuries of humanity's great struggle for Freedom and
Justice. We must not undo what was wrought for us through the sacrifices of many great courageous individuals
throughout history.
We all have a great responsibility to carry Freedom into the future through USING it, each one of us. For example
through using our freedom to think and speak differently from the mass opinion or sometimes the “expert's opinion.” I
remember, back in 2002, after I demonstrated against the war, a person would ask me:”Why are you not leaving the
country, when you don't agree with our President and his decisions?” And it came out of me:”So that there is freedom
in this country!”
When people are afraid of using Freedom, it will slowly disappear, like muscles when they are not being used. The
treasure of freedom is never for granted, we always need to give a sacrifice in return.
Sometimes the sacrifice is only our time and effort. Sometimes we need to pay with prison or our life.
Is it worth it? Yes. And this "Yes" is sounded, not just by all the individuals, who gave their life for it in the past, but
this “Yes” is sounded by the Divine Human Spirit itself, whose existence and future depends on it.
It is the responsibility of the people to keep Freedom alive. And it is the responsibility of the State and its departments
to ensure Justice to the people.
And so I ask you humbly and boldly to fulfill your part of this responsibility to ensure justice towards me and other
targeted individuals, toward all victims of the failure of the system.
What can I do for you to help you in this regard?
What can I do for this country so that it may find its real Spirit again?
Respectfully and hopefully,
Heike Sura Painter
(I will send this letter also to the German Chancellor Frau Merkel to ask her to intervene on my behalf,
as well as Senator Leahy, whom I will ask to deliver this letter. And I will send this letter to other Senators and
individuals to ask for their support, too.)
Some say,"Only God knows what abuses the CIA, the NSA and the FBI are hiding." This is not true. Many on Earth
know their dirty secrets. Just ask a surviving Targeted Individual. Really listen. Then, tear down the wall of denial.
The German excuse during the Nuremberg Trial, "We did not know it," was unacceptable then and remains
unacceptable.

Comment: How can an individual learn if they are on the official government watch or "hit-list" or if their ongoing
"bad luck" ruining their lives is government orchestrated as former Congressional investigations exposed Cointelpro
specialized in doing covertly, so unsuspected?
