Results of this effort follow below. 2. S/NF/SK) Viewer 011 produced a somewhat dubious description of the target structure, then described the interior as hollow, and containing a gigantic "airboat" transportation device being constructed inside. This is strongly at odds with the overhead photograph provided with the tasking. At the beginning of the session, 011 experienced strong AI of "wiery place" = This AI repeated itself throughout the session Q11 found no outstanding event. (S/NF/SKI 3. Viewer 032 produced an almost identical exterior and interior description of the target building; basically hollow, with construction. The building was perceived in open landscape. surrounded by fencing and high mountains in the distance. This is also clearly at odds with the overhead photograph provided) . 032 did not experience any AI. 032 stated that the event would be in the future, involving the destruction via some kind of "attack" on a government facility of national value. 4. (S/NF/SK) Viewer 003 produced a fairly accurate outer description of the building, then described the interior as giving the strong impression of "office building", staff building, etc. There were, however, added perceptions of individuals brought in under duress, and being held there. Otherwise, the work here is all paperwork, the main purpose being "staff", organizing and controlling practical labor, which is done elsewhere. At the beginning of the first session, 003 In expressed the AI of strong dislike, and a foreboding feeling. the session, 003 tracked this Af to an adjacent building, rater than the target building. 003 stated that there would be no significant event. 5.

Approved For Release 2000/.ComFr ULUITERDP96-00789R000600910003-3 this building is reports and paperwork, of a practical nature. :: Overall policy decisions come from "higher up", and this place is the administration/staff for actual work which is done elsewhere. Cured with "key person", 095 accessed a man who is angry with the organization's recent loss of prestige and financing. This person is not a "director" as such, but is in more of a Chief Advisor position to those in power, outside the building. He is responsible for the entire operations within the building. His "job" is to voice an informed position to his superiors, even though he does not have any political strength of his own. He must hear. The "duality: within his organization is, on the one side, staff and administrative, and on the other, a more covert set of activities which even mots of the people working in the building do not know about. These activities involve security and the collection and collation of information. In this aspect, people who are neither prisoners nor criminals are "brought in" and interrogated, sometimes with a great deal of fear and manipulation. At the beginning of the thirst session 095 expressed the strong AI of "bad air". The 3rd session produced an AI of "extreme heat in the face". The AI was resolved in the 4th session to be caused by this covert aspect of work within the building. 095 found no specific event. 6. (S/NF/SK) Viewer 025 perceived acts of terrorism are being planned against the target building. Within this context, arise the perceptions of retaliation, confrontation, crime, and third world countries (not further defined) . Several people and groups appear involved in the preparation and perpetration of "taking hostages", "taking over the building" as a means or pretext to request and obtain the release of "their own" as prisoners. The target building is some sort of plant, like Westinghouse, with the added characteristic that "several countries are involved here. 7. (S/NF/SK) Viewer 079 perceived the target structure is a building of European origin and deals with international affairs. It fulfills a key administrative role of a diplomatic nature. The target building is one of about five similar buildings located in France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, Spain, and Great Britain respectively, are all being considered as bombing targets by terrorist. Several terrorist factions from various countries appear to be involved. Among these are the Red Brigade from Italy and the Red Army Faction from the FRG, both of whom appear responsible for providing extensive logistical support. The Spanish Basque movement known as the Fatherland and Liberty (ETA) and the Greek Revolutionary Power Struggle (ELA) also perform a supportive function (NFI). The actual perpetrators will in all likelihood come from within the FRG MOvement known as the Revolutionary Cells (R), and/or the Spanish First of October Anti-Fascist Resistance Group (GRAPO) . Either R or GRAPO will claim credit as perpetrators of this bomb attack. (NOTE: The name "Weitzel" phonetically surfaced when reporting on the FRG; it may be identifiable with Wetzlar, FRG. Wetzlar is located about 150 miles north of Frankfurt". oronry Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000600910003-3
