whitewashed the DOJ’s destruction of Inslaw and theft of PROMIS on July 31, 1997. Judge
Christine Miller sent a 186-page advisory opinion to Congress claiming that Inslaw’s complaint
had no merit—a somber message to software developers seeking to do business with Attorney
Generals and their DOJ. For his integrity, Judge Bason lost his bench seat to the IRS lawyer.
Throughout three administrations, the mainstream Mockingbird media obediently covered up
the Inslaw affair, enhanced PROMIS being a master tool of inference extraction able to track and
eavesdrop like nothing else. Once enhanced PROMIS was being sold domestically and abroad so
as to steal data from individuals, government agencies, banks, and corporations everywhere,

intelligence-connected Barry Kumnick turned PROMIS into an artificial intelligence (AI) tool
called SMART (Special Management Artificial Reasoning Tool) that revolutionized
surveillance. The DOJ promised Kumnick $25 million, then forced him into bankruptcy as it had
Hamilton. (Unlike Hamilton, Kumnick settled for a high security clearance and work at military
contractors Systematics and Northrop.) Five Eyes / Echelon and the FBI’s Carnivore / Data
Collection System 1000 were promptly armed with SMART, as was closed circuit satellite high-
definition (HD) television. With SMART, Five Eyes / Echelon intercepts for UKUSA agencies
became breathtaking.
The next modification to Hamilton’s PROMIS was Brainstorm, a behavioral recognition
software, followed by the facial recognition software Flexible Research System (FRS); then
Semantic Web, which looks not just for link words and embedded code but for what it means
that this particular person is following this particular thread.
Then came quantum modification. The Department of Defense paid Simulex, Inc. to develop
Sentient World Simulation (SWS), a synthetic mirror of the real world with automated
continuous calibration with respect to current real-world information. The SEAS (Synthetic
Environment for Analysis and Simulations) software platform drives SWS to devour as many as
five million nodes of breaking news census data, shifting economic indicators, real world
weather patterns, and social media data, then feeds it proprietary military intelligence and
fictitious events to gauge their destabilizing impact. Research into how to maintain public
cognitive dissonance and learned helplessness (psychologist Martin Seligman) help SEAS
deduce human behavior.
Coupled with Semantic Web, SWS became the testing environment by which military and
intelligence could foresee what adversaries, neutrals, and allies were planning to do and thus
prevent, alter, or accommodate their future behaviors. The SWS mirror world is like Where’s
Waldo? the children’s book for upcoming spies, replete with big and little institutions, terrains,
streets, homes, individuals, even crowds. Feed SWS what you plan to do—take over private
water wells in California, unleash weather warfare on the poor in New Orleans or Haiti, phase
out the border between Canada and the U.S., back Israel’s Palestinian policies—and SWS
software prophesies the reaction. Crisis management.
Needless to say, military-industrial-intelligence players like DARPA, Eli Lilly, Lockheed
Martin, and Homeland Security all employ SWS. Simulate a crisis, then either run it in the real
world or not as a controlled false flag or real event. During Noble Resolve 07, the JFCOM-J9
(Joint Innovation and Experimental Directorate of the U.S. Joint Forces Command) worked with
Homeland Security and multinational forces to run real-time, round-the-clock simulations for
dozens of nations. Reactions under stress may require that several solutions be at hand, but
generally JFCOM-J9 is confident after six decades of slow-boiling-frog cognitive dissonance
that SWS predictions will hold in the U.S. as well as in other nations (like Ukraine and Greece)
whose cultures have been carefully subjected to SWS scrutiny.
