William Pears Group

William Pears Group is one of Britain's largest property companies, with £6 billion of property in London and south-east England. The Pears family are major sponsors of Zionist activities through The Pears Family Charitable Foundation
The William Pears Group was founded in 1952, by Bernard Pears (who changed his name from Schleicher on emigrating from Austria) and his son Clive Pears. It is run by Mark Pears with his younger brothers Trevor and David.
According to The Daily Telegraph, Mark Pears is a director of 212 companies, a "complex labyrinth of operating and investment companies", but won't say which is the main holding company or what the group's annual profit is.
William Pears Group owns 3 – 4,000 London freehold residential properties, including large areas of Notting Hill.
In 2009, William Pears Group paid £750 million to Land Securities, to buy Telereal Trillium, a commercial property management and investment company.
In April 2013, William Pears Group bought The Spires Shopping Centre in Barnet, London, from the bank UBS for a reported £34 million. The Spires has since been bought by the Canadian investment fund AIMco.
Through Pears Global, they have "up to 6,200 apartments" in Berlin, managed through a series of "letterbox companies". In 2019, a collaboration of investigative journalists in Germany, headed by Correctiv, tracked down the ownership of about 25 companies with property in Berlin to six firms in Luxembourg, who belong to two firms on Cyprus, who belong to two firms on the British Virgin Islands, who the journalists concluded to be controlled by the William Pears Group.
The Pears brothers have invested in New York City as well, through the purchase of $147 million of at least 344 unsold condominium and cooperative units in mostly 1980s-era cooperatives and one rental building, according to PincusCo Media. The acquisitions began as early as 2011 and the most recent was in June 2020.

William R. Harris

William R. Harris is associated with RAND Corporation.
In the period from 1976 to 1980, Harris developed an argument that the Soviet Union was orchestrating a disinformation campaign to understate the accuracy of its missiles. According to Harris, this involved manipulating telemetry data targeted by US technical collection and alleged double agents such as Fedora.Edward Jay Epstein, Disinformation, Commentary, July 1982.Robert E. Townsend, Deception and Irony: Soviet Arms and Arms Control, American Intelligence Journal 14,Nos 2 & 3 (Spring/Summer 1993), pp.47-53, archived at .
In 1977, Harris and Abraham S. Becker of RAND conceived the idea that the ABM Treaty put no limitations on the use of exotic technologies, not even to ban their deployment.Frances Fitzgerald, Way Out There in the Blue: Reagan: Star Wars and he End of the Cold War, Touchstone, 2000, p.294.
In January 1985, Harris wrote a memo outlining his view of the ABM Treaty in response to Deputy Under-Secretary of Defense T.K. Jones, who was concerned that the treaty would constrain the development of the Strategic Defense Initiative.Frances Fitzgerald, Way Out There in the Blue: Reagan: Star Wars and the End of the Cold War, Touchstone, 2000, p.294.

William Sargant

William Walters Sargant (April 24, 1907 - August 27, 1988), was a British psychiatrist who worked with shell-shocked servicemen during World War Two, and later published a book entitled Battle for the Mind in which he discusses propaganda and 'brainwashing'.
:A Harley Street psychiatrist, Dr William Sargant, now dead, was sent by the British government in the early Fifties to evaluate MK-ULTRA. On his return he told a friend, the author and former BBC television producer Gordon Thomas, that what Cameron and Gottlieb were up to was as bad as anything going on in the Soviet gulags.
:Thomas, whose books include a 1988 study of the CIA's forays into mind-control, Journey into Madness: Medical Torture and the Mind Controllers, says: 'Sargant told me that he had urged the British government to distance this country from it. He said it was blacker than black.' According to Thomas, Sargant told him that Olson had come to Britain from 1950 to 1953 to work on attachment at Porton Down and had also made frequent visits to 'an intelligence facility' in Sussex. This is confirmed by entries in the special passport that Olson used... Mike Miniccino, an American businessman and historical researcher who has spent 25 years studying the MK-ULTRA programme and developing a database on its activities, says that if Olson did then express his reservations about MK-ULTRA and its work, he would have done so to Sargant, who had evaluated MK-ULTRA's work and who had been a close colleague of Olson's.
:And although - as we already know - Sargant wanted the British government to distance itself from the CIA's work with MK-ULTRA, Miniccino says that he was nevertheless committed to the principle of mind control and had become the link between the British Secret Intelligence Service and MK-ULTRA. Miniccino adds: 'So if Frank Olson expressed serious doubts about the MK-ULTRA project to Sargant, then he signed his own death warrant.'Kevin Dowling 'THE OLSON FILE; A SECRET THAT COULD DESTROY THE CIA', MAIL ON SUNDAY August 23, 1998 SECTION: Pg. 10;11;12;13
