Russia don't need no bombers...now that they have "Psychic Soldiers"

Russian Military Journal Claims Psychic Soldiers Can Crash Computers and Control
Dolphins

A journal published by Russia’s Ministry of Defense became the subject of
mockery this week after publishing claims that “Russian specialists” have
communicated with dolphins, crashed computer programs, and even looked into
safes using the power of telepathy.

As first highlighted by Russian media outlet RBC, the February issue of Army
Collection featured a story titled “The Super-Soldier of Future Wars.” In it,
reserve colonel Nikolai Poroskov detailed a variety of bizarre abilities related
to “parapsychology,” a science once used by “Babylonian priests.”

According to Poroskov, Russian special forces in Chechnya employed these
parapsychological techniques, which he elsewhere compared to “superpowers.” From
Army Collection:

The uninitiated know little about this unique technology. But one aspect is
clear—telepathic contact. Russian specialists achieved it by working with
dolphins. They mentally gave the animals commands that they performed. This was
practiced by the famous animal trainer Durov. The technique, it turns out, is
also applicable to humans. Moreover, it’s even possible to effect technology.
With an effort of thought one can, for example, crash computer programs, burn
crystals in generators, eavesdrop on a conversation, or interrupt television and
radio transmissions.

Experiments like these were successful: reading a document lying in a safe, even
if it was in a foreign language the person did not speak; identifying
individuals belonging to a terrorist network; identification of potential
candidates for terrorist groups.

As outlandish as Poroskov’s claims may sound, the U.S. and Russia have indeed
studied both psychic phenomena and military applications for dolphins. However,
neither country has previously claimed the kind of success described in Army
Collection, an official publication of Russia’s Ministry of Defense.

Speaking to RBC, Yevgeny Alexandrov, the chairman of the Russian Academy of
Sciences’ anti-pseudoscience commission, dismissed parapsychology as a “fairy
tale” and said there is no scientific basis for telepathy.

“[Military parapsychology] programs really existed and were developed, but were
classified,” Alexandrov told the outlet. “Now they come out into the light. But,
as in many countries of the world, such studies are recognized as
pseudoscientific, all this is complete nonsense.” According to Alexandrov, these
military experiments were last conducted in Russia in the early 2000s.

On social media, many ridiculed the Army Collection article’s claims, but at
least one Russian Twitter user saw some truth in the story.

--- “It works,” they wrote. “I have just had luck completing an experiment with
reading a colleague’s thoughts. He wants to go the **** home.”
