Ruth Sinai

Ruth Sinai was a Washington correspondent for the Associated Press.

Ruth Sinai was a Washington correspondent for the Associated Press. In November 1991, she broke the story about Psi, a private firm run by retired military intelligence officers, being enlisted by the United Nations to find Saddam Hussein's weapon sites. Her article, titled "U.N. Enlists Psychic Firm to Find Iraqi’s Weapon Sites," marked the beginning of the end for the U.S. government's twenty-three-year history in ESP and PK research1.

Sinai's report focused on the work of Karen Jansen, a UN inspector and Army major, who allegedly carried sketches of Iraqi biological weapons sites provided by PSI Tech president Ed Dames. Dames told Sinai that he and his associates drew the sketches through Remote Viewing, which he described as a learned technique that doesn't require psychic powers but rather suppressing imagination and concentrating on a target1.
