(U)
Cancellation of the INSCOM CENTER LANE Project
ISSUE :
(U)
The cancellation of the INSCOM CENTER LANE Program (ICLP)
will result in the loss of a promising new intelligence technique that can
enhance INSCOM's existing intelligence collection programs.
(U) Cancellation of the CENTER LANE Program would have the following
adverse impact:
1. (S/CL-1/NOFORN) Loss of invested resources, which are providing a
more timely, cost-effective return in intelligence than other more
"conventional" systems and methodologies.
2.
(S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Essential abandonment of the field to Soviet, East
Bloc and Chinese intelligence services.
3.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Loss of seven years' knowledge and experience, as
well as trained personnel, requiring a "start up" time for a renewed
psychoenergetic collection effort of as long as five years.
4. (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Surrender of a significant technological lead.
The
remote viewing technology being transferred to CENTER LANE personnel and
utilized for operational intelligence collection represents a major
breakthrough in the fields of psychoenergetics and intelligence
collection.
Since it has remained under the CENTER LANE umbrella, this
technology is unknown to the outside world. The Army presently enjoys a
monopoly on a revolutionary new collection tool. Outside researchers are
essentially following a "false trail," which accounts for their general
failure to develop useable, sufficiently refined psychoenergetic skills
and techniques.

5.
(S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Loss
of widespread respect gained
from
the
Intelligence Community for INSCOM's program
as the leader and major
expert in this field; and loss of painstakingly-developed rapport between
intelligence users and ICLP.
6.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Loss of a vital, tested intelligence collection
methodology that can not only augment established disciplines, but perform
missions that would be extremely difficult or impractical for any other
collection resource.
