Smedema’s Allegations of Medical Persecution

Main text

Hans Smedema alleges a series of forced medical interventions were used against him as part of a broader conspiracy to silence him and discredit his claims of abuse and corruption within the Dutch government. These alleged interventions, as detailed in the sources and our conversation history, primarily revolve around the administration of ketamine, electroshock therapy, and the misdiagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses. Smedema believes these medical manipulations were deliberately orchestrated to control his behavior, suppress his memories, and portray him as mentally unstable, ultimately undermining his credibility and hindering his pursuit of justice.

Ketamine Drugging:

Smedema consistently claims that he was secretly drugged with ketamine for an extended period, starting as early as 1973. [1, 2] He alleges that his wife, Wies, administered the drug daily, hidden in vitamin pills or wine, under the direction of Jaap Duijs, his neighbor and alleged conspirator. [2] He further implicates the Drachten Police in supplying the ketamine to Duijs. [2]

Smedema attributes a range of debilitating effects to the alleged ketamine drugging:

• Reduced IQ and Cognitive Impairment: Smedema asserts that the long-term, low-dose ketamine administration significantly lowered his IQ, impacting his judgment, analytical abilities, and decision-making, particularly in financial matters. [3, 4] He describes himself as a “half-stupid zombie” due to the drug’s impact and attributes bad investments and a “stupid career” to the alleged drugging. [3-5] This alleged cognitive impairment serves as a crucial element in his narrative, explaining his perceived inability to effectively confront his alleged abusers and his susceptibility to financial exploitation.
• Docility and Submissiveness: Smedema alleges that ketamine made him docile and submissive, hindering his ability to question or resist instructions from individuals like his wife and Duijs. [4] He describes exhibiting “dog-like” behavior, suggesting a complete loss of autonomy and agency. [4] This alleged submissiveness is central to his accusations, as it explains his perceived inability to fight back against the alleged manipulation and control exerted by the conspirators.
• Memory Loss and Amnesia: Smedema claims that ketamine caused significant memory loss and amnesia, making it difficult to recall specific events or piece together the alleged conspiracy against him. [4] This memory impairment, a recurring theme in his accusations, hinders his efforts to build a case against his alleged abusers and adds to the complexity of proving his claims. [4] He also notes that ketamine causes memory loss of up to ten minutes before administration, essentially creating a blackout period around events, making it easier for the alleged conspirators to manipulate him. [4]
• Physical Symptoms: Smedema links ketamine to various physical symptoms, such as heart palpitations and hyperventilation attacks, further contributing to his distress and potentially serving as evidence of the alleged drugging. [4]
• Increased Vulnerability to Other Abuse: Smedema alleges that the ketamine made him more susceptible to other forms of abuse, such as electroshock therapy and psychological manipulation. [4] He believes the drug’s effects facilitated the alleged “brainwashing” and torture, making it more effective in repressing memories and controlling his behavior. [4]

Smedema’s claims of ketamine drugging are particularly concerning because they suggest a deliberate and insidious attempt to control his mental state and behavior. The alleged long-term administration of the drug, coupled with his detailed descriptions of its effects, raises serious questions about the potential role of medical professionals or individuals with access to ketamine in the alleged conspiracy.

Electroshock Therapy:

Electroshock therapy, a controversial treatment for severe mental illnesses, plays a prominent role in Smedema’s allegations. He claims to have been subjected to this therapy multiple times, characterizing it as a form of torture designed to repress his memories and manipulate his behavior. [2, 6]

Smedema specifically accuses Professor Dr. Onno van der Hart, a renowned trauma psychologist, of administering the electroshock therapy. [1, 2, 6-8] He alleges that Van der Hart was complicit in the conspiracy, using the therapy to erase or alter Smedema’s memories and make him more compliant. [1, 3, 7, 9] Smedema often refers to Van der Hart as “Onno the Devil” or the “Dutch Mengele” due to the alleged brutality of the treatments. [7, 10]

Smedema claims that the electroshock therapy was administered in various locations, including:

• Sofia Hospital in Zwolle in 1975: Smedema alleges that Van der Hart drugged him and forced him to sign a document he was not allowed to read before subjecting him to electroshock therapy. [11] He believes this document was used to legally justify the ongoing abuse and cover-up. [11]
• Catral, Spain, in 2008: Smedema accuses Van der Hart and Duijs of torturing him with electroshock therapy at the villa of a former police officer named “Ad.” [1, 12-14] Ad reportedly characterized the electroshock treatment as “torture,” solidifying Smedema’s belief that the procedure was not therapeutic but rather a deliberate act of violence against him. [12]
• Nightclub Pretty Woman, Benidorm, Spain, in 2010: Smedema alleges that he was subjected to electroshock torture at the nightclub, orchestrated by the Dutch AIVD (General Intelligence and Security Service) and potentially involving the Spanish secret service. [13]

Smedema describes a range of debilitating effects resulting from the alleged electroshock therapy:

• Memory Repression and Manipulation: Smedema claims that the electroshock therapy was used to repress his memories of the alleged abuse, particularly concerning his wife’s alleged sexual exploitation. [6] He believes these treatments were not therapeutic but rather a form of torture designed to control him and prevent him from exposing the truth. [6]
• Personality Alteration and “Dog-like” Behavior: Smedema asserts that the electroshock treatments, combined with the alleged ketamine drugging, altered his personality and induced a submissive, “dog-like” state, further hindering his ability to confront his alleged abusers. [6]
• Psychological Trauma and Breakdown: Smedema describes experiencing severe psychological trauma as a result of the alleged electroshock treatments, including amnesia, repression, and a diminished sense of self. [6] He believes these treatments were part of a deliberate effort to break him psychologically and discredit his claims by making him appear delusional. [6]

Smedema’s accusations against Van der Hart are particularly disturbing because they implicate a respected figure in the field of mental health in a campaign of abuse and silencing. These allegations raise serious ethical concerns about the potential misuse of electroshock therapy as a tool of coercion and control.

Misdiagnosis and Treatment of Mental Illnesses:

Smedema claims that he was repeatedly misdiagnosed with mental illnesses, such as paranoia and schizophrenia, as part of the alleged conspiracy to discredit him. [15-17] He believes that these diagnoses were deliberately fabricated to undermine his credibility and portray him as unreliable. [15]

He alleges that the “delusional” label was intentionally fostered and disseminated by those involved in the conspiracy to dismiss his allegations as the product of a troubled mind. [15, 17] Smedema argues that this labeling, reinforced by the forced medical interventions, created a self-fulfilling prophecy where his inability to provide concrete evidence was seen as further proof of his mental instability. [15] This, according to Smedema, allowed the authorities to ignore his claims and maintain a facade of normalcy, effectively silencing him and protecting the alleged perpetrators.

Smedema’s allegations of misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment raise concerns about the potential misuse of mental health diagnoses as a means of silencing dissent and discrediting individuals who challenge authority.

Impact of Alleged Medical Interventions:

Smedema believes that the alleged medical interventions had a devastating impact on his life, leading to:

• Financial Ruin: Smedema claims that the alleged ketamine drugging, coupled with his misdiagnosis and the subsequent administration of antipsychotic medication, contributed to his financial downfall. [3, 18, 19] He argues that the drugging impaired his cognitive abilities, making him vulnerable to financial exploitation and leading to poor financial decisions. [3, 18] He also attributes his job loss and the depletion of his pension fund to the alleged medical interventions. [3, 18]
• Social Isolation: Smedema feels that the alleged medical interventions, particularly the labeling of him as “delusional,” isolated him from his family and friends. [20, 21] He believes that the alleged conspirators manipulated people around him to believe that he was mentally unstable, making it difficult to gain support or assistance. [20, 21]
• Psychological Trauma: Smedema describes experiencing severe psychological distress as a result of the alleged medical interventions. [9, 21, 22] He mentions feeling betrayed, helpless, and constantly under threat. [21, 22] He also claims to have been left with deep psychological scars, exacerbating his feelings of vulnerability and distrust. [22]
• Forced Exile: Smedema claims that he was forced to flee the Netherlands and seek asylum in Spain due to the alleged persecution, including the alleged medical interventions. [19, 21, 23]

Smedema’s case highlights the potential for medical interventions to be used as tools of control and manipulation, particularly in situations where individuals pose a threat to powerful institutions or individuals. His detailed accounts of the alleged interventions, their alleged effects, and the individuals involved underscore the need for greater scrutiny and accountability within the medical profession to prevent such abuses of power.

It is important to note that Smedema’s claims of medical interventions, while presented with conviction and supported by his personal interpretations of events, have not been independently verified. The absence of official documentation, medical records, or corroborating testimonies from medical professionals makes it challenging to assess the validity of his allegations objectively. However, his persistent and detailed accusations, coupled with his unwavering belief in a grand conspiracy against him, warrant further investigation to determine the veracity of his claims and the potential involvement of medical professionals in his alleged persecution.
