"Peter Greene - Debrief 23 June 1982

This document is also available from http://www.freezone.org/e_green.htm.
Peter Greene was one of the first franchise holders circa 1952, before there was the Church. He later went to South Africa and was the Org. Sec. In the 60' he was in South California and still a franchise holder (now called Mission holder) but he operated under Applied Philosophy, legal at that time. He died around 1989. He, like many of the old originals, always separated the subject from the Organisation and L. Ron Hubbard the man from "The Founder".

The debriefed, Peter Greene, is about to begin and is on now. Ok, this is what 20 - 23rd of June 1982 approximately 17.00 hours. There's is a lot to cover here, so I am going to be brief and make reference to the materials I have in front of me and then if we have questions we can handle them afterwards because they may be covered as we go.
This will be given from the viewpoint of the missions. Much of my data is because I was involved very closely with the Missions Network and know lets about the interior workings of the Sea Org, so I will tell it from that viewpoint.

Ok, in 1975 or there abouts there was a program written by Jane Kember, or issued by Jane Kember in the G.O. and it was Control of the U.S. Missions. It was a Guardian Order. Basically the idea was that if the Churches were to be closed down by losing the IRS case or for any other reason, then, and the doors were padlocked they could immediately open up the next day by taking over the Missions aid setting them up as Orgs. To this end there were certain requirements; incorporation of the Missions having Herbie Parkhouse be an the board of Directors; having G.O. people be signatories an the bank accounts and so forth.

But the program was, basically control of the Missions, and it said amongst other things, first they have to --, and there was a program written which was first: Isolate Kemp from LRH because he has personal comm lines to Ron, secondly: Comm ev. him and then hold the findings aver his head for ten years for good behaviour and then I think the sequence was Bent Corydon, Ray Kemp, Carl Barney, Wood Shirrell, the major Mission Holders. Alan Walters, of course, was already in trouble.

And this was a secret program that surfaced after the FBI raid, was found under the Freedom of Information Act, and it's part of the papers that were in the FBI 23.000 pages of documents or whatever.

Ok, in 1976 the Kemps had their Mission in Orange County, a Tustin Mission taken away from them by Henning Heldt complying with this order and they tried to get justice an standard Scientology lines and had considerable problems. Their petitions to LRH were never passed through. They were found, subsequently, in the FBI documents.

To try to reclaim the building about two and a half million dollars building plus their Mission and their mest and their back salary and so forth which had been illegally stolen from them.

Carl Barney's Mission was stolen from him in 1979 under similar circumstances and Herbie Parkhouse was very instrumental in that.

Now, in 1976, the first document we have here is an Eval issued by Diana Hubbard Horwich who was then CS-6 an data received from the Guardian World Wide and the Deputy Guardian Finance World Wide, in other words, Jane Kember and Herbie Parkhouse. And that is Aide's Order number 176-2, 5 March 1976, Flag only, Senior Execs and G.O. W.W. Confidential, Franchise Network.

The situation: An individuated Network of Missions who are not forwarding public up the Bridge, and instead are implicated in unusual deals with orgs and milking public for their money, etc.

It is a total outpoint eval, and extremely false. It turns all plus points of the Missions into cut points and all out points of the Orgs into plus points.

As you can see by reading it. Data: the Guardian's Office, particularly, the Guardian World Wide and Deputy Guardian Finance World Wide have been doing a commendable job of data collection. Also an Obs Mission from Flag to Franchise Office World Wide was sent this has resulted in a great abundance of data. The major points of analysis are:

This eval was issued by Lieutenant Commander D.H. Horwich CS-6 approved by CS-6 Action Aide and the authority for it is SH verification D.M. which is presumably David Miscavige, the issue is DHH, MI, AD, MSH, Mary Sue Hubbard, for the Board of Directors.

I won't go into what it says because you can read that. As a result of this, a mission was put it training: J.C. Hughes and John Woodruff, and they were sent to World Wide and Mike Davidson who was a Kha Khan, who had been making the Missions stats go up for 9 consecutive years and had expanded the Mission Network to a paint where it accounted for, as early an 1968, 60% of World Wide's Gross Income was coming from the Franchises.

And he built the Franchise Network to be a major contributing part that was supporting the G.O.. That was where the funding for the G.O. came from; was from the tithes from the Missions. And Mike Davidson was summarily removed and thrown in the Estate Projects Force and was targeted by Jane Kember and she succeeded in doing him in.

1977-76 Bent Corydon had Riverside Mission, which was one of the biggest in the world with 150 staff, stolen from him, largely at the instigation of John Woodruff. And Bent can tell his own story if you are interested.

Then Phil Spickler old timer, was fined by John Woodruff who, at that time, was the Deputy or was the Franchise Officer U.S. operating out of the Kemp's old Mission in Orange County. And Phil Spickler was fined, I think 25,000 dollars, because he was not charging full rates for auditing. And so John computed what the income would have been if he had charged full rates and then fined him 25,000 dollars for arrears of tithes that would have been paid if he hadn't cut this prices. Phil Spickler's wife sold their house, they paid the bill and he quit his Mission.

Now under new Management, Mike Davidson long gone, are rapidly declining. Also in 1977 or 78 the FBI made a raid on Los Angeles and Washington D.C.. And in the same period, 1977, Yvone Gillham Jentzch died. Basically I think because of suppression on her lines, that in itself is another story.

In 1979 after Doran and I finished NOT's we went to World Wide and started an eval on the Mission Network and worked in the Mission Office with Jan Logan who was Guardian Personnel under Jane Kember who had been put in to bypass the Mission Network. And the Mission Network was now being run by Jane Kember on a via through Jan Logan.

We got very heavily attacked by Jane Kember and by the Mission Office and we tried to handle the price increases and painted out the suppressiveness of the price increases which were wiping out the Missions. And we didn't get any results other than to be attacked.

We returned to the United States at the end of 79 and became fabian and began continuing our push to expose Jane Kember as one of the WHO'S behind the destruction of the Missions and thereby the destruction of the rest of Scientology.

In June of 1980 Lauri Wood Shirrel, Doran's daughter, died as a result of suppression from the Mission Office. She was under attack, her Mission was under attack and we raised a considerable fuss about this and were declared PTS type C persons who threatened, sued, or embarrassed or attacked the Church.

At that time, the Continental Justice Chief stated that our declares were based upon data from a Senior or trusted B.O. terminal, whose name was never disclosed. In the declare, PTS declare on us, we were accused of having falsified on NOT's and claimed to be NOT's completions when in fact we had only been given the very beginning, rudimentary beginnings of the Tech and it was a very scurrilous issue.

During the same year, 1980, there was a revelation. 79 and 80 there was, of course, a great deal of revelation in the press about the trials in Washington on Mary Sue and Jane Kember and Mo Budlong, Henning Heldt, Duke Schneider and the rest of the G.O. people who had been indicted.

And in 1980 Mary Sue and the others pleaded guilty. And then Jane Kember and Mo Budlong were extradited and also either pleaded guilty or were found guilty.

Around April of 1981 Bill Franks was appointed the Executive Director International, the job had been offered to Ken Urquhart who had declined it, Bill Franks was appointed for life. There was a Policy Letter which I don't have a copy of but which can easily be obtained, which stated that Bill Franks was the Senior Ecclesiastical and Management Terminal of the Church of Scientology, was the International Executive Director, there was no higher terminal than himself, except the Founder.

John Horwich, John who was at that time Diana's husband, told us in a briefing that Ron gave him a job to do which was to align the networks. Ron did an eval and found that the one of the problems was the various Networks, the G.O., the Sea Org, the Missions, the LRH Comm Network, the Folo Network, etc., were all at loggerheads and John Horwich was given the program by LRH to align these. And John went ahead, did the job and he found out very very quickly and simply that the G.O. was the culprit and that basically the G.O. was out of comm with the others and was cutting comm and was a problem.

He said: "Oh! that's fine, very good. So he went to Mary Sue and said: "Got it all sorted it out, this is what we have to do: Get the G.O. to align its admin scale with the others etc. etc., and to his horror he was immediately attacked very strongly, and he backed off.

In August of 81 there was an Obs mission sent to World Wide and the real data on the G.O. and its criminal activity was uncovered. I have data oh that from Jeff Shervell who was G.O. terminal and is now an a special project for LRH. Somebody started to blow the whistle and said this is what really goes on. As a result of this David Miscavige, and Bill Franks, John Horwich and others; I believe Norman Starky but those 3 for sure; mounted missions to St. Hill and to L. A. and went in and removed Mary Sue Hubbard and Jane Kember from post and took over the G.O.. And John Horwich was with the group that removed Mary Sue.

And Jane pulled a counter coup and took the G.O. back. Jane of course was out in Los Angeles at the time I think because of her trial, and they had to go in again. And this time Jane had sixteen B1 bully boys standing around saying "don't you dare" and Jane was going to call the security forces, the rent-a-cop type people with billy clubs to defend her post, and Mo Budlong said "that is crazy, that in insane that will cause nothing but bad press", and so the G.O. capitulated again and this time the S.O. took over the G.O..

Bill Franks then did an evaluation as ED INT on the guardian's office, and that evaluation has not been published but is probably available. And his conclusion was that Jane Kember had taken Scientology and turned it 180 degrees around and we had completely black Scientology. There were 2 Scientologies. LRH Scientology and Scientology per Jane Kember's interpretations.

Confirmation of this is that the assistant guardian information, bureau, one from Austin, at the second mission holder's meeting told us that his B1 Hat pack was about 3 inches thick. When it was stripped of all the false data and of non-LRH issues and stripped of all the Guardian Orders and the Guardian Tech, the pack instead of being 3 and half inches thick was about 1/2 inches thick. The rest of it was false tech.

A campaign or a program was mounted after this eval to false data strip G.O. personnel. Many of the Assistant Guardians immediately changed sides and joined the sea Org.. Including Tan Logan who is guardian staff running the Mission Offices. And many of these G.O. people immediately joined the Sea Org rather sheepishly, because there had been a war between the Sea Org and the G.O. for years and finally the S.O. had won. So they changed sides.

The false data stripping and sort of group engram running was held under the auspices of the CMO, the IMO and Bill Franks in Los Angeles at Saint Hill, and at Flag.

False data stripping is based upon HCOB 7 Aug. 1979 and HCOPL 7 Aug. 79 FALSE DATA STRIPPING and I don't have any details on what was done particularly, but in the course of the false data stripping and the eval an awful lot of crimes, criminality, and noncompliances with LRH orders where revealed.

The busting of the G.O. as I said was in August of 81 and September the 15th L. Ron Hubbard wrote an issue HCOB 15 of September 1981 called THE CRIMINAL MIND - the timing is interesting.

Documents with this are International conditions Order number 1, 5 August 81 Flag, Folos, G.O., W.W., Continental Guardian Offices, Committee of Evidence, Fred Hare, Jane Kember, David Gaiman, Herbie Parkhouse, Henning Held, Duke Schneider, Mo Budlong, Jimmy Mulligan, Ann Mulligan, Rick Merwin, and Nicky Merwin.

In this the interested parties are comm eved by a committee consisting of chairman Lieutenant J.G. David Miscavige, D.M., Ensign Marc Yaeger, Warrant Officer Nelson, Lieutenant Commander Clarice Brusel, and Petty Officer April Hall. They were found guilty, removed from post, stripped of most of their certificates and so forth, but the findings were never published.

On the 8 of October 1981 Flag conditions order 6439 issued at Flag G.O., W.W. Folos Continental, G.O., S.O., Orgs G.O. LRH comm and Flag's Reps. list the status of Fred Hare, Jane Kember, David Gaiman, Herbie Parkhouse, Henning Heldt, et alia, and many of them have resigned from post entirely. Others have simply been busted.

In between the comm-ev, of the 5th of August of 81 on the G.O. people and the eval, Franks was very busy and at the some time he was trying to handle the 'Get High on Yourself' program which was a major celebrity program involving Cathy Lee Crosby and Bob Hope. And Cathy Wasserman was organizing this. And the result, some national television coverage and a major program.

At this time Alan Walters who had been kicked out of the Franchise Program in 1978, and had his mission taken away from him in the Midwest for the second or third time, his first one was in 1969.

Alan went to Franks and told him that many of the old time mission holders and the power leaders in the field were inactive. Such us, Duran and myself, and Ray Kemp, and Bent Corydon, and Carl Barney, and Phil Spickler. And Franks was horrified. He didn't know. He thought we were still on post all busy doing our things and running our missions. And he said, "I'm so busy right now with this G.O. clean up, the "Get High an Yourself" celebrity program, I need some help. But as soon as that is finished I will definitely put some attention on this and hold a meeting for the mission holders and see if we can get this lot cleaned up."

So in November 81 - no I'm jumping ahead - so in August 26 1961 bill Franks, ED INT, issued Sea Org ED. 1789 INT BPI, All Staff, All Public, from Executive Director International. It was called management changes, and in this issue he told about the management changes and the history and how the G.O. had turned around and gone adrift.

He says, unfortunately over the years the Guardian Office went adrift. Factually the phenomenon of being off policy and off source increased over the years. This was not a sudden change, but was a gradual decay in the G.O. by people who "knew best" and started formulating their own policy. Some time even counter to the Church's best interest etc. etc..

An obvious example might be the criminal gases, here we have people representing the Church who had gotten themselves involved in a fight with the government, when our very first policy is to maintain friendly relations with the environment. The mistakes made were simply, that this policy was not followed and the results ware predictably negative fur the Church. Any and all criminal actions were done by a handful of individuals. It was not by the Church. Such actions are in fact totally counter to Church beliefs and policy, and that's the real truth of it.

Franks told me subsequently, that he found an doing his evaluation that there were direct orders from LRH not to do anything criminal. That if you do criminal acts you already admit that you have failed because any information can be obtained legally.

Again from Bill Franks to myself. And he said that Mary Sue, (he was out here in Los Angeles), and Mary Sue saw this management changes issue in the L.A. Times. It was published by the World Press. It was run in the L. A. Times.

It was run in the Canadian newspapers. It was featured, I think four consecutive days by the BBC in England, and it made big head lines or big world press, that the Church of Scientology was cleaning up its act and was admitting that there had been errors and criminality but now it was straightening out. Mary Sue didn't see this Sea Org ED, she read it in the paper and she called Bill Franks and she said, -Bill, I'm going to get you for this!"

And somewhere in November of 81, Franks kept his promise and organized the first Mission Holders Meeting at Flag. And at this meeting, which he and Alan had dreamed up to get into comm and connect up the Mission Holders, and the Mission Holders who had been kicked out and the ones who were no longer active, was part of the revitalization program and he wanted to brief them.

And Gordon Cook, who was the new Controller, who was now wearing Mary Sue's hat as Controller, was there and Jens Borgward from the CMO was there. And the first ARC break came when the Mission Holders arrived and the meeting started. Diana Hubbard was there, and Bill Franks was absent. He'd called the meeting and he wasn't there. When asked what was happening we were told that he had been called to Int for some kind of consultation or whatever and was handling an ethics cycle on the 2 D.

Jens Borgward conducted the meeting and Ray Pam Kemp had been invited. When they got there the story of what had happened to them in 1975 on the theft of their Mission and their illegal comm ev and their expulsion and so forth. Admissions were made that the G.O. had gone off policy and at that paint Jens Borgward turned to Gordon Cook and said, "Gordon, I think you should handled this cycle." The Kemps had been declared public enemies of Scientology because they were suing the Church and their law suit was coming up at that time.

So Gordon Cook arranged a Board of Investigation, a Board of Review and the findings were published as Sea Organization Flag Conditions Order 6453-1 21st of November 1981 Broad Public Issue. Board of Review Findings - Ray & Pam Kemp. In this it gave the background, it found that their whole handling had been totally off policy, out ethics.

They had been denied standard Scientology Justice and that were not in fact SP's, even though they had filed a suit with the Church and that the only reason for the suit had been because all other lines of justice within the Church had been blocked to them. And even the law suit was on attempt to get into communication. So they were exonerated and were restored to good standing by this issue.

The recommendations in that 6453-1 included that a special Board of Review be inaugurated for a limited period of time, specifically to encourage and hear current Scientology civil litigants grievances against the Church and seek to resolve these an standard internal lines wherever possible.

This special Board would not replace any standard justice recourse actions, but set up to handle those incorrectly handled by past members of the Guardians Office or other units acting on policies not those of the Founder. Chairman of this was Ran Anderson, Secretary Nancy Kass and Member Nick Fine, for Gordon D. Cook, Acting Controller.

This created a tremendous resurgence of hope in Scientology, and in the Field various litigants were dropping their suits, getting into communication.

The Kemps were telling people: "Look, you can get justice in Scientology now, even with us who were expelled and declared and then suing. There is a sanity. There has been a severe reality adjustment. There is a reform movement within the Church and Scientology is getting back its ethics and getting back onto LRH instead of Jane Kember."

This resulted in myself wanting to connect up, Carl Barney wanting to connect up and it lead to the establishment of the second Mission Holders Meeting.

Also at that meeting, not only did Ray Kemp get restored to good standing and get settlement on his mission, but Bent Corydon, who had been fighting since 1977 was awarded the River Side Mission back. There was a Board of Investigation there and he was given back the River Side Mission totally and now is currently running it.

Now, interesting data. Right after that Missions Holders Meeting, Bill Franks watched Vicki Aznaran, CMO, writing an entheta report on this terrible Mission Holders Meeting that was being held at Flag. It was a scurrilous report, full of generalities.

Bill Franks read it over her shoulders as she was typing it, and said: "Vicki, what the hell is this" you know this was not true, you were not even there," and she went out of comm with him.

So the first attack on the Mission Holders Meeting and this reform, came, as far as we can determine from Vicki Aznaran in the CMO. Vicki Aznaran's post is, after the U.S. G.O. was busted, by the CMO. Vicki Aznaran, I understand is now running and clearing up the US. G.O.. She is in Sea Org, CMO running the G.O. at that time.

In December 6 of 1981 a second Mission Holders Meeting was convened and it was set up by SMI, Scientology Missions International, and I have in front of me an issue dated 14th of November 1981.

It is a C.S.W. from Tina Meyers who was Deputy SMI Liaison Flag to the SMI Officer Int Jan Logan, and it's called Operation Connection Number 3. This was issued as a SMI Project Order, issued to SMI Int, SMI Liaison Flag, info to the Office of the Controller, to the CMO Clearwater, to the CMO Int and to the Watch Dog Committee.

It set out what the purpose of the meeting was: the project information, the call-in campaign, the operating targets, the vital targets, the primary targets and it was to continue cleaning up the ARC broken field and get the Mission Holders active and connecting up and carry an the good work that was done in the first Mission Holders Meeting.

Doran and I were not present at the first day, we were refusing to go to that meeting. But we received calls from Milt Wolf, from Bent Corydon, from Peter Scupholm, various other Mission. Holders, and Carl Barney, who had had 5 Missions stolen from him and a total of 4 million dollars. And since Ray Kemp had gotten justice and Bent Corydon had gotten justice and Gordon Cook had talked to Carl and promised that he would have a resolution of his situation, would have justice. And Carl persuaded me to go down there.

So we went, with Flag paying our expenses, and it turns out that they billed the B.O. W.W. for our air fares and expenses, feeling that that was just, since they were the ones who had done us in.

At that meeting it came out that Bill Franks who had convened the first meeting and hadn't been allowed to attend, had gone off to Int and had been placed under guard, 24 hours a day and had had his telephone bugged.

And when this came out there was a furor because he had gone to be handled for an out 2D situation and it turns out that the guy who was conducting the Mission Holder's meeting in Bill's absence had now married Bill Franks's wife Jeannie.

I do not know the rights and wrongs of this and who had the out 2D, later charges where brought against Bill Franks for out 2D with Cathy Wasserman whom he'd been working with an the "Get High On Yourself" program.

But there was and an outrage on the part of the assembled Mission Holders and other field staff members and SMI personnel, over the fact that Bill Franks was the ED, wearing Ron's hat. And who had Authority to place the Senior Management Terminal of the Church under surveillance bug his telephone and place him under restraint? Who in fact had the power to comm ev him or to put his ethics in?

It wasn't that we objected to his ethics being put in. We wanted to know the command line, there was no policy extant at the time that placed the CMO as his senior's or the Watch Dog Committee as his seniors. We couldn't find out who was the Watch Dog Committee.

Now we were protesting that we were being run by an anonymous council. A generality like the G.O. and now this Watch Dog Committee. Who are they? What are they? What do they do? What's their function? What's their purpose? What's their policy. What is the scope of their orders? What issue from LRH has given them any power and authority. We wanted answers to all these questions.

We put Bill Franks an the spat and asked him to explain and he couldn't answer. We said is this Policy Letter that appoints you ED Int for life, in fact true, or are you just a figure head. Who does these things? And he painted to Annie Trascott, who was the representative to CMO INT and the WDC and said, "Ask her?" and she squirmed & wriggled and didn't come clean and wouldn't tell us and complained that she was under attack.

What then happened, Brian McKee, after a while, stood up and said, "I'm tired of all this. I'm tired of the depredations inflicted on us all by the G.O.. These hidden data lines. Hidden control lines and I am an OT and as far I am concerned, this group of youngsters who are the messengers should be Bill Franks's juniors. They are Ron's messengers. In the absence of the founder, Bill Franks is wearing Ron's hat and therefore Ron's messengers should be Bill Franks's messengers and I am assigning then now a condition of confusion.

And he wrote out a condition of confusion on them and gave them 30 days to work through the condition and get upgraded by the Executive Director International. At that point he passed it around and about 30 of us signed it, including myself and Duran.

Most of the Mission Holders who were there and some Sea Org crew such as Frank McCall and David Meyers and Tina Meyers. And so the Mission Holders Meeting was supposed to have been friday night Saturday and Sunday and then go home.

In fact I think it lasted to the following Thursday because so much data was coming out so much false data was being stripped we had something like 200 people who'd come in from all aver from San Francisco from Dallas from Austin from Connecticut from L.A. Org people who was Sea Org. people who was G.O. people who were mission staff and so forth and as they begin to tell their stories.

Many of them were horror stories of being ripped over and raped and black mailed or removed from post when they were upstat conditions. Or being given false ethics trips black P.R. and so forth. And it was in effect running out the group engram. It was not as was alleged a squirrel group engram running. It was simply that the false data was falling away and the truth "as emerging.

And people were blowing charge and they were coming back to the truth. For example; one guy will stand up and start telling what had happened to him in D.C. and another one will say "Well I have some other data an that", and he tells his side of it, and somebody else will say "I've got some thing to contribute here because this was what was happening. I at the time was an such and such post I a got orders to do so and so and that was why you got done in because the order came from blah blah.". Then blah blah. would have to stand up and he told his side of it.

And it was a connecting up of people many, of them whom were OT's and NOT's people and they weren't taking any bull shit and they were telling the truth and charge was blowing and truth was coming in. False data was being just blown to pieces and it was an incredible connecting up of people as a true group wanting to connect up with LRH.

And the one thing they were sure of was that LRH was it and that most of these things were not LRH they were perversions and corruptions on LRH and they had a feeling they could get Scientology back and get LRH back into Scientology.

And Sue Anderson it was PRO stand up and cried and told us that Ron had not being on the lines and that her comm from him were being corrupted. She produced evidence of advices from LRH which had being censored where paragraphs had been cut out and where forgeries had been sent to her so she thought he was on the line and he wasn't on the line.

And it was just on incredible series of blow downs of learning the truth and so a demand was made that the CMO and the Watch Dog Committee should appear in front of this meeting and come and contribute their side of the things and explain their relationships. What were their orders. What policy established them. What gave them the right to arrest and bug the telephone of the Executive Director International? Who were these people? Who were the watchdog committed and what powers do they have and an forth.

So they flew in and there was David Miscavige, Marc Yager, Norman Starky, John Harwich, came in, and David Mayo, when they finally arrived, it was a fiasco.

At Alan Walters request the entire Mission Holders Meeting, both the first where Say Kemp and Bent Corydon were, and the second, were videotaped to protect us so we will not be misquoted. Also because verbal orders were being given, and if it is not written it's not true.

For example on the subject of the prices somebody asked Peter Crundall of the Westwood Mission "Ask Bill Franks what about the prices". And Bill's reply was "Well you have to charge enough to a viable mission but if you price yourself out of the market you will go bankrupt, so why don't you follow LRH policy in Volume 3 and work cut the price, but remember there is a second policy which is you must not undercut your local Org. So get together with the C.O.'s of ASHO and L.A. Org and work out a price for the area."

This of course was a verbal order so we wanted things like this recorded. So it was actually written, it was written on a video tape. My understanding is that these tapes were taken by CMO Int and these are what were used to declare us and to allege a conspiracy to take over the Church and deny it to fully constituted management etc. So they were a double edged sword.

One of the examples of what had happened, was for example, the assistant guardian from Austin Org stood up and told a horror story of how he had been recruited into the G.O.. He had been a tech C/S and he said when I was trained in the G.O. my B1 hat pack was 3 1/2 inches thick and when we stripped out all the false orders and false tech we were left with 1/2" that was LRH. He said "Let me tell you what happened when I first joined the G.O. because I decided that I was a tech C/S and was doing well in the Org but I wanted to play a bigger game and run the 3rd dynamic engram instead of just one person at a time."

"I went through an apprenticeship in Los Angeles and Jimmy Mulligan said "what we have to do is get the goods on this guy, he's an enemy of Scientology. He's PTS and he' gonna attack the Church so I want you to go through his folder and find out what you can."

So I did wearing my tech hat and I looked at it. Well the fellow's in ethics trouble so prior to that there must be some out tech and so forth and sure enough I found it. There was the messed up ethics cycle and prior to that there was the list that was wrong and I was very elated and I went to Jimmy and I said "Hey I've got it, look what happened, the guy's threatening to sue the Church and prior to that there was this mishandled ethics which was gross and prior to this was a fuck up in his auditing and here is the wrong C/S and how we correct it.

And Jimmy said "wait a minute, hold it everybody, hold it guys. Hey we got a 'techie' in our midst. And he said I wandered what he was talking about. Yeah we got a 'techie' and he said "look son that's not what we want" and for the next couple of hours I was degraded for being a 'techie' and I was told, "What you do is you go through the folder and I don't give a damn about the tech, I want the dirt, the withholds. I want the crimes we can use against him."

And, he said, "I went into degradation. And also in the next 2 hours I was blackened for believing that I could exteriorize. Anybody who thought that they could exteriorize in the G.O. was considered theetie weetie. Anybody would believed that there was such things as perception, that you could look down the hall and see into another, was completely unreal.

In the G.O. we're not interested in that we're interested in facts , in documentation, in affidavits and he said "from there on that was the last time I made case gain".

And then Joe Leasa stood up and he started telling some of his withholds and his activities in the G.O. and Alan Hubbart got up and said "In my 7 years in the G.O. I am proud to say that I never once committed any criminal acts."

And immediately Darby Simpson said "Well you did with me, on that cycle you handled" and he admitted "that's true, well I guess that was illegal.". And Renee Duke got up and said "you really were illegal with and did this and that was criminal.", and he admitted to that and then we tried to pull Alan Hubbart's withholds but he wouldn't come clean and the room knew that this guy was squirming and withholding.

This second meeting consisted of about 5 days of grief, tears of people crying, of hearing other people's horror stories. Doran told the story of Lori's death. I told the story of the attacks on us in Saint Hill after we went there to disseminate NOTS and were the first NOTS completions ever to promote the subject in England.

Jan Logan came in and Doran bopped her and decked her with a right cross which brought in a lot of good indicators and finally Jan Logan stood up and told the truth about what had happened in England and how Jane Kember had spent 4 hours explaining to Jan when we were doing the data eval that Peter Greene was S.P. and one of the biggest S.P.'s in Scientology and Doreen Casey contributed that Jane had black PR'd me in 1968.

Other people who had heard stories began to contribute their data and it turned out the testimony that Jane Kember had falsely attested an OT 111 in '68 and had turned sour. All sorts of truths were coming out. Charge was being blown and the results of this meeting were some incredible products.

We revitalized some 30 Class VIII's about 60 Class VI's and these people were all wanting to get back in to business. And Bill Franks was taking the stops off, he said "Whatever you want to do, go ahead and do it provided it in LRH. Don't follow any illegal orders, ignore BPL's. Ignore Guardian Orders. But if it's on policy and you've wanted to do it then for God's sake do it. And they eliminated the multiple mission charters and things like this. If you wanted to open other missions then open other missions and there was a huge expansion and revitalization mood and a huge renaissance feeling.

And Artie Maren was there and was extremely excited and was going to put out a press release based upon what was happening and make the press right. Basically his idea was that Scientology had gotten into the hands of a very few criminals per the issue Management Changes and that the members of the Church had now thrown out their suppressive management meaning the old G.O. and were cleaning up their act and the press release in effect would say the 4th estate has done it's job.

It has drawn our attention to these things. The FBI has done it's job. It has arrested the criminals, the courts have found them guilty. They're going to jail. Members of the Church did never condone these actions and have now re-aligned themselves to L. Ron Hubbard. And now there's a new management and a new mood and a renaissance within our Church.

And this way would make the press right for the past entheta but now they could write good things about us and this was the whole mood. Now we're going to expand and we're going to get back to Ran.

Meantime reports are flying from Los Angeles to CMO and from other people at Flag up to CMO that there in a revolution and a mutiny going on. Vicki Aznaran's writing reports, people are sending telexes to their staff, return immediately, do not support this mutiny - what mutiny? Come back to base.

Joe Leasa was ordered back to U.S. GO.. He stood up and he said, "if you're looking for a plant in this meeting, don't look any further. I'm it. I was sent out here to find out what you guys are doing and to infiltrate this meeting. And he began to come up with his withholds. He said, I am, when he was ordered back to Los Angeles he sent them a message and said "No, you come here, this is where Scientology is, we have LRH in our midst and you come and join us."

When he got back he was declared type III and he was put through an Ethics trip. Basically, what was happening was that the false reports were being erased and blown. The 3rd dynamic engram was just disappearing as people reconnected to Ron and each other and there was a tremendous amount of tears and people crying as they heard horror stories, it was on the 3rd flow. I mean I would hear what had happened to you and I'd choke up over your experience and vice versa and it formed temporarily a true group.

Then the CMO came in, having been thoroughly inadequately briefed, thinking they were coming to quell a mutiny and when they arrived, David Mayo first began to give a tech briefing and he was told "David, that's not what we want, we want to get in comm with you guys." And then Norman Starkey stood up and began to handle us by reading, What is Greatness - it was totally out of R - you know it was like you've got to forgive the people you're made at.

Then finally I stood up and said "Gentlemen, can I be your Spokesman for a few minutes?" and the group said "Yea". And I said, "Gentlemen, you're inadequately briefed, you've come here with totally a wrong idea of what's been happening for the last 5 days. This is not a mutiny. We have shed tears. We have bled together. We've suffered together and we have reconnected and we want to connect with you. We want to get our hats on. We want your hats straight. We want Bill Franks's hat. We want Gordon Cook's hat. We want our own hats back.

And I suggest that right now we're out of ARC and out of comm because you're talking to a picture of something that isn't true and that we adjourn this meeting while you get a briefing and then we meet tomorrow.

So I sent everybody to bed and they went off and got a briefing and that night Jon Horwich sat with about 10 Mission Holders, Marty Samuels, Bent Corydon and myself and John Woodruff and so on and gave us the whole history of what had gone an in the G.O. and removing Mary Sue and Alan Walters and Dean Stokes and others sat and gave a briefing to Miscavige and those guys.

And the next day we got together and there was an apparent EP an the meeting of "OK you guys, we understand you've got your hats back, you can do your job and blah blah blah." At that point Bill Franks subsequently told me. He said, "Right then I knew I was dead."

And we went back to our various missions and areas and we were told by Gordon Cook and by Bill Franks to continue these meetings. To set up these meetings in the field and let people discharge their charge and do what we'd done at Flag.

So Peter Crundall set up a meeting in the Westwood Mission and Helen Geltman set up one in New York. Someone else set one up in Columbus, Ohio and this type of meeting was held, where the fact was given that there've been two Scientologies. There's been LRH Scientology and there's been this squirrel black Scientology that has come out of the G.O.. And that this is false data and its lies and its criminality and people were beginning to blow their charge and do basically what we'd done at Flag and there was a whole new spirit and the result was that they did set up this permanent board of review.

Now one thing I should mention. At the first mission holders meeting the whole subject of the Bureau I files had come up. The lies about the Kemps and the B1 Files, the black PR against most senior Scientologists in the B1 files and Gordon Cook and Jens Borgward said "I don't see any reason why they should even exist, these were to handle enemies of Scientology. They were never to be dossiers on Scientologists". And so Gordon and the others said "You can go in and see your B1 file and burn the damn thing. There's no reason to have them." And so the B1 files were opened.

So I came back to Los Angeles and Doran and I were ready to go out and connect up and start a Mission. I arranged Seminars. I arranged Lectures. I arranged to go and do a speaking tour all across the country at new missions. There was a whole expansion movement. There was postulates of opening up. Peter Scupholme was gonna open up 13 new missions. Peter Crundall was going to open up two more missions in L.A. and so on. An incredible revitalization!

So I came back here and this was just before Xmas and I went into the G.O. and asked to see my B1 file and I was told that I couldn't see it. And I contacted Flag and they said somebody's put a stop an it, allegedly the stop was from the Watch Dog Committee. I was invited back to Flag by Div 6C.

They decided to use under the OPZ and the 4th Dynamic program to expand the out reach of Scientology based on an eval done by Diana that had been approved, that had set up Operation 4th Dynamic. Not OPZ. Operation 4th Dynamic. And there were many new ideas of the bridge to the bridge. Of taking LRH stuff out directly to the public instead of via the Orgs, to go out with an out reach. I can go into that program separately.

As part of this, Riggs Eckelberry wanted to do a series of power hats and he asked me if I would do the Anatomy of the Human Mind Course on Video tape. And I also volunteered to do my power hat of the PE Course which I've used in every mission I've Aver had of basically an LRH P.E. Course of how to reach the general public so that people could buy this videotape and use it in the new SMI programs and the new missions that were coming along.

And there was a whole let's get the tech out let's get LRH out, and I was asked to do the Anatomy of the mind data because I was present when Ron did the original Congress with the whole stage thing and I created Ron's mock ups at the time so we were flown back to Flag just before Xmas.

At that time I talked to Bill Franks and he said that mission holders meeting was both a triumph and a disaster. It was a triumph in the terms of the products that we got, we got some incredible products. A revitalization and the International stats are just going out the top but it was a disaster from a PR standpoint because we thoroughly upset the C.M.0. and they don't understand what's going on.

So he wrote an issue which is S.O. ED 1874 Int of 15 Dec 1981 all staff, Sea Orgs, non-Sea Org, Class IV Orgs, fields, missions and it's called "More an Management Changes".

And in this he tells something about the mission holders meeting, the field expansion, the team effort, the subject of the Boards of Investigations in recognition of the recent renaissance within the Church and the new on policy and on source re-organization and changes within the Guardians Office. Setting up a board to hear grievances from all persons who feel they are currently in conflict with the Church or past conflicts that haven't been resolved.

Then he also maid that he wanted to set up an International Management and Field Advisory Board which would be opinion leaders and people in the field in areas of power, such as representatives from the Missions, such as Martin Samuels, a representative from the legal field such as the guy who's doing judiciary Dianetics. Somebody from the business field and set up an Advisory Board to advise management meaning Bill Franks, on maintaining friendly relations with the environment - first policy.

And so the Advisory Board was put out by Lt. Commander Bill Franks E.D. International and again he's talking about the renaissance, the FEBC Program, the Operation outreach, the 4th Dynamic Operation and the back up and support and so forth. You can read the issue. I mention that because one of the charges for which Alan Walters was declared SP was for setting up this International Management Field Advisory Board in an attempt to take over the Church and it was declared a squirrel splinter group.

I have here the International Field Advisory Board Admin Scale.

Goal: to broadly advise service and provide good counsel in assisting LRH Scientology Management and the field to maintain friendly relations with the environment and the public.

Purposes: to help individuals and groups attain the results that standard LRH Tech and Admin can produce when standardly applied. To bring to official notice and put an standard lines for remedy any injustices, flubbed cases, ARC broken publics, abuses of Rewards and Penalties P/L (3): to connect upstats and maintain that connection per the Power Formula. This was written and approved as part of the renaissance.

The Stats would be number of recovered Scientologists, number of new people in, number of new groups formed, number of new missions formed, number of new orgs formed, number of LRH books sold, number of winning team members, number of flourishing prospering advisory boards, number of expansion opportunities identified and exploited.

V.F.P. Friends who flourish and prosper due to association and connection with other Scientologists Management and LRH.

V.F.P. An expanded and enhanced World Scientology Community of OT's forming a true group of friends cooperatively and joyfully pursuing future expansion across the dynamics.

Sounds very squirrely and suppressive doesn't it? One of the cognitions we had at these meetings was that the product of an S.P. is enemies. An S.P. is surrounded by enemies and therefore he sees enemies and he makes enemies.

And the history of the G.O. under Jane Kember and the Mo Budlong and others management had been to create enemies within and without Scientology and therefore that's the product of a true OT and we've decided it would be friends and Ron's first policy was maintain friendly relations with the environment so this was part of Franks' overall expansion and revitalization program and during all of this the stats were going up superbly.

Shortly after I got back from Flag I was declared a suppressive person. So was Brown McKee so was Alan Walters. So was Dean Stokes who had been the Chairman of the second mission holders meeting, and Ray and Pam Kemp were re-declared suppressive. Most of these SP declares contained false reports such as that Kemp was setting up the Reform Church of Scientology, he'd never even heard of it.

The mission holders meeting which had let to field meetings had led to another meeting in Westwood which I'd helped Peter Crundall conduct and false reports were put in about that and were used in my declare.

I have a document which is a report I wrote to the C.M.0. before I had any idea I was to be declared or was in any kind of trouble and it is to Ron Pook of CMO Int 12 Jan 1982. It's a seven page report which I won't read but which is available.

The spate of declares that came down were on all the people who were very active in this reform movement and Franks was declared and anyone who had been associated with him in trying to get this thing going was also declared. The BI files were closed and here's additional data.

Between the mission holders meeting and my return to Flag Dec 24th, Jane Kember was at a cocktail party in L.A. before Xmas where she was publicly attacking the Westwood Mission meetings and stated that Peter Greene and Peter Crundall were running Squirrel group engrams meetings. And that phrase has occurred every since in the declares Stacey Young, who is married to Vaughn Young, told a staff member of mine that Jane Kember was not in fact in disgrace but that it was simply a ploy to handle the press and the public but in fact she was still in good standing. It was just a PR move to publicly disgrace her.

When we phoned trying to get our BI files guess who answered the telephone in B1, Jane Kember, exactly. I raised a fuss about this with Gordon Cook, David Miscavige got upset about it and there was an order from the WDC on Kember and Co. saying that she had no status in Scientology and that she was not allowed into B1 except with an escort.

Whilst I was at Flag in January, Bill Franks was removed covertly and secretly and the shore story was put out that he was on a dental cycle and was an R and R because of a medical cycle he needed. And the word came out at the second meeting at Westwood at Peter Crundall's mission that Bill Franks had been removed. So had Jan Logan and several others went down to Int to get a briefing and give a briefing and on the Sunday a BPL came out written by the WDC published for the Board of Directors stating that in fact the CMO and WDC were Bill Franks seniors and that they had the right to remove him.

Bill Franks' removal was causing considerable upset in the field because he was a stable datum. He was the ED Int and his removal which had been covered up by a shore story resulting in rumors that he was an post, off post, just an a leave caused a lot of confusion. So there was an urgent directive issued by the Watch Dog Committee which suspended Bill Franks from post.

Now an urgent directive denies the person the right of comm ev first and removes them without comm ev. Policy is you can't remove them without a comm ev. except this urgent directive policy that says where the stats are crashing and there's a crisis and a situation you can remove the person and suspend them temporarily with pay and then you can have an investigation and if they're found innocent restore them with full pay.

Dean Stokes at that time started to get very vociferous and started to put out communications and maybe went a little overboard. Brown McKee quit and went to the press. Jane Kember wrote up a report on the Westwood meeting about Jack Horner being there, the reform movement was smashed.

And now we come to Dick Story. Between the time that I was declared suppressive on the 20th of January and the time that I got expelled there was a special briefing for West Coast mission holders to which were invited Martin Samuels, Mark Silver, Kingsley Wimbush, John Woodruff, Peter Crundall, Bent Corydon, Jerry Simmonds etc. etc. and they were taken in, some of them separately in different groups, dependent upon their degree of antagonism and were given a special inside briefing by Dick Storey who was Mo Budlong's deputy. He was head of BI Europe. Has been 11 years in the G.O. at Worldwide, he's from New Zealand.

His explanation for this sudden spate of declares was something as follows: You see there was the enemy were getting upset because we handled some of the court cases. He omitted the fact that we handled some of the court cases because of the first mission holders meeting and the Board of Review on the Kemps which started getting people into comm and seeing that there could be justice.

So we started to handle the court cases and the enemy got upset so they set up a conspiracy and sent in some FBI agents and had plants within the Church and some of these plants are - we've really got a cancer. Storey was saying that there was a cancer within the body of the Church and that some of it was malignant and some of it was benign, the malignant cancers were the enemy, the actual enemy and benign cancers were unwitting pawns such as Dean Stakes. He was an upstat Scientologist and he certainly wasn't malignant but he was doing the enemy's work unknowingly.

The story that he told was that Bill Franks's telephone had been tapped and they knew that he was having an out 2D with Kathy Wasserman who was giving him blow-jobs under the table because they had recordings and that she was an F.B.I. plant who had been sent in to subvert loyal officer Bill Franks through 2D and to P.D.H. him. And because of his dental work, he was PDH'd under the guise of dentistry and that had turned Bill Franks into a real weirdo and he had fomented and led this revolution using real enemies such as Alan Walters who had been working for the IRS for years.

I should say here that Alan Walters has a judgement against him of $100,000 by the I.R.S. and has been the victim of attacks for a long time, so this is a chronic 180 degrees vector.

That Kathy Wasserman and Alan Walters had worked bill Franks aver and created this schism between management and the body of the Church in order to allow the enemy to take advantage of a precedent used in the Worldwide Church of God a couple of years ago when the membership of the Worldwide Church of Gad asked the Attorney General to put their Church into receivership because they didn't trust the Board of Directors anymore and this was done.

And so Story's briefing was that this was the real reason for the reform movement, was to create dissatisfaction with our management so that the Attorney General or the powers that be, Federal or other agencies, could step in and take over the Church.

And he more or less boasted that he, Storey, was the one that had shown the CMO the truth an the matter, because they had no intelligence gathering capability and he had shown them the G.O. knew things they didn't know. And that they were very foolish to ignore the expertise of the Bureau One people because he had undertaken to handle this whole rebellion and stamp it out.

And the policy that he was using was the I March '66 that established the Guardian and which Ron talks about wearing his heavy Hussar Hat, and was stamping out the rebellion and Doran wants to say that that policy if you follow it says that the guardian may not delegate her powers whatsoever. Pick Storey was not the guardian so he was off policy in quoting that policy.

Then Storey gave a briefing to the Sea Org crew, a mandatory briefing, which was secret and told them the policy he was operating off was the indicators of Orgs. Where for the good of the Org and to protect the group you put heads on pikes regardless of whether these people are necessarily good or bad. You put a few prominent heads an pikes to calm the whole scene down.

And he said there probably have been some mistakes and injustices and these people have recourse and we can clear them up in due course. Dick Storey, although the orders were issued under the signature of the International Justice Chief, Dick Storey, did tell some of these mission holders that the expulsion orders were already written and that if we did not hastily ask for a Comm Ev. or do A to E these expulsions would be issued. And he implied that he had written them.

The fact is that Alan Walters asked for a Comm Ev. at Flag his terminal was the Flag MAA, the response was he received an explosion. I asked my alleged terminal, the Continental Justice Chief, one Melanie Herrick to gather all the reports so that I could confront them per the policy 16 May 1980 Issue 11 and it could be used for a Comm Ev. here an the West Coast and the only response I received was an expulsion order.

Apparently the only acceptable thing was to do A to E. Bob Flat told me that he requested a Comm Ev. and asked for the reports so that he could confront the reports that were put in an him and he was told that there were no reports. However he had been declared on the basis of these reports.

I would at this point say that one of the reasons for the concern of the part old time Scientologists, on the part of the Mission Holders at the meeting was because of some statistics given to us by Gordon Cook by the people in SMI and by Bill Franks. The statistics that were stated and confirmed by Alan Starkey and the CMO when they came to the meeting, was that the Church was spending 3/4 million a month, $750 - $800,000 a month in Lawyer's fees.

This is money - that if we had not created the enemies and created the lawsuits - could be used for the expansion of Scientology and to pay S.O. staff and to be used for theta purposes.

We were told that there were 180 lawsuits against the Church, 180 and 800,000 a month being spent on defending them or prosecuting them. We were given a list of some of the Scientologists who were engaged in factions and lawsuits and asked to get in touch with them and let them know about the Board of Appeals or the Board of Review and there was at that time a limited amnesty for litigants against the Church inviting them to come in and take advantage of the reform, the renaissance and the new mood of justice.

Effectively, by wiping out Franks, by declaring the people who were somewhat active in this movement the reform was stopped and the BI files were reinstated - were no longer available. And our investigations have lead us to believe that much of the false reports came from the U.S. G.O..

Vicki Aznaran who started the attack an the first Mission Holders meeting and who was very antagonistic to the Westwood meetings, for your information is Dean Stakes ex-wife, who left him in Treason some years ago and joined Sea Org. And she was in close comm with Jane Kember and other people who were loyal Kemberites in the G.O..

The apparency is that the war between the G.O. and the S.O. has swayed back and forth. That the S.O. wan when they busted Jane, Mo, Herbie, David etc. and that through the G.O. U.S. the B.O. has reasserted it's power.

Dick Story who is from W.W. has effectively persuaded the CMO and the W.D.C. that they still need the old G.O. personnel and this is behind the stamping out c+ the Franks' led reform.

Currently Dick Story is the AG Flag working hand in glove with Kerry Gleason, who was Bill Franks' lieutenant and who took over Franks's post and whose testimony was used in the SP declare an Lieutenant Commander Bill Franks.

In present time - this is June, six months later the statistics are that Franks and most of Ron's friends seem to have been removed, offloaded or left Flag. Even Jan Logan who as the SMI Officer was working with the reform movement, has now been busted and is removed as Mission Officer and I understand is in the R.P.F..

David Meyers who was my liaison has been removed from SMI. His wife Tina his been put into the nursery looking after the children. Riggs Eckelberry who video taped everything has been expelled. Joe Leasa has disappeared from view. The A.G. Austin was even, whilst we were at Flag and while the meeting was going on, the G.O. in Austin put out the work that he had gone aver to the enemy, was no longer to be trusted.

The locks on the door and the files on the Austin G.O. were changed. His wife was told that he had gone crazy and gone to the enemy. She said "No, he is at Flag right now", and they said, "No he is not." And we received this report while the Mission Holders meeting was going on, that this fellow was now some kind of fugitive and if he were found he should be apprehended because he was dangerous. So the Mission Holders meeting was being black P.R.'d whilst it was going an as an enemy activity.

Dean Stokes applied for a comm ev. which was held in Los Angeles. The committee consisted of Peter Gillham, old time Mission Holder, Scientologist Dorothy Broadhead, ex Mission Holder, now G.O. S.O. staff, Bent Corydon, Mission Holder. Dean's Comm Ev. Was held very much following policy and he was found, based upon the promise that was given at Flag by Jens Borgward, by Bill Franks, by Gordon Cook, that anything that he said would not be actionable. It was to be treated as session data and please do not suppress anything and any data you have, anything you to say, please just say it, and don't suppress. Don't withhold.

All of the statements that were made at Flag, in the Mission Holders meeting, that were supposed to be session data were subsequently used in the Declares.

The fact was established in Dean's first Comm Ev. that this was session data and he was found not guilty of any High Crimes or suppressive acts. He was found guilty of a crime that when he was declared and G.O. staff went to him in Austin, he shoved the guy in a restaurant and created a fracas which put Scientology at risk because the Authorities or police might have been called, but other than that his name was cleared.

That Comm Ev. was canceled by Issue Authority, the Committee was declared in Non-Existence and were ordered to Cramming. A new Comm Ev. was convened an Dean, this time with three G.O. Personnel.

Dean's a Class VIII, he is an O.T. and he is a prominent Field Scientologist. He was entitled to a Comm Ev. by his peers. None of the people an his second Comm Ev. were OT'S. None of them were trained Class VI's or Class VIII's and none of them were from the Field. They were G.O. personnel and one of them was in a Condition of Liability and was doing as part of his Liability formula serving on the Committee, perhaps to strike a blow the the enemy. This Comm Ev. found Dean totally guilty of everything per U.S. G.O. Ethics Order 8 94/1 of the 26th March 1982 BPI.

As a result Dean's Declare was upheld and the parties an this were Nancy Nelson, Linda McNally, Stephen Adams and Howard D. Becker and somebody whose signature I can't read. The Convening Authority was Paul Thrower T/Deputy Guardian Management Services Bureau for Lottie Zern D/Guardian U.S. and it makes very interesting reading.

Specific False Reports an the S.P. Declares can be gone into separately for whatever there was, but this basically concludes the debrief an the sequence of events of Franks" rise to Power.

The cleaning up of the criminal activities of the G.O.. The revitalization movement and the way in which it was smashed.

I think you will find a few strings in this debrief that are worth pulling that may open up another can of worms.

Today's date is the 23rd June 1982.

This is Peter Greene signing off.

I once mistakenly posted that it was Laurel Sullivan who was involved but I now believe it was actually Bess Sullivan ( Bob's sister I believe) who was working on it, too. She was promoted at Int Management to oversee the newly set up Op4D after Diana was removed. Diana's removal was devastating. She became deprssed and was oppressed, to say the least.

My original post at Marty's blog:

Mary McConnell // November 22, 2009 at 2:44 am

Tom, In the late 70’s the Church announced a new L. Ron Hubbard based planetary dissemination program called Operation Z or ” OP Z” as it came to be known. With this program ‘we were supposed to get the planet Clear in 5 years, meaning by 1983.’ I was involved with this in the early 80’s, working on Div 6 social coordination & spec ops pgms in Los Angeles, programs that were set up and managed by Diana Hubbard and Laurel Sullivan before the program got squashed by DM )

Op4d It was based upon the HCOB The Special Zone Plan http://carolineletkeman.org/sp/index...100&Itemid=102

You may find this reference good for historical background :

More about Op4D
From: http://www.solitarytrees.net/cowen/misc/deeds.htm
[..] In the late summer of 1981, Hubbard announced his annual "Birthday Game". (This was usually some grandiose project or other, often with the objective of raising productivity; Church management has evidently found it a useful tool and continues the tradition, with Scientology organisations competing annually to recruit more members and process more people.) The goal of the 1981/82 Birthday Game was called "Operation Fourth Dynamic" — the "fourth dynamic" meaning "the survival of mankind" — and, although it is almost certainly not called this any longer, the aim set out by Hubbard still appears to be in force:

"The Continued expansion and widespread acceptance and recognition of Scientology in every community."

[LRH, quoted in The Winner issue 14 (Sept 1981), p. 8]

To put it crudely, Scientology organisations were instructed to compete with each other to spread Scientology as widely as possible — according to Hubbard, any method was acceptable as long as it resulted in a "win". The "OP 4D" programme was co-ordinated by Bureau VI of the Guardian's Office, a secretive and controversial organisation established by Hubbard to serve as a sort of Praetorian Guard. It was later to be abolished following the imprisonment and indictment of over 40 senior Scientologists (including Hubbard and his wife) for the theft of huge quantities of confidential US Government papers. Social programmes were subsequently handed over to the newly-constituted ABLE, with many Bureau VI functions apparently being transferred directly to the new body. Its basic goals seem to have remained unchanged. These, critics charge, boil down to three fundamental objectives:

•To make money.
•To recruit members.
•To further the goals of the Church of Scientology. [..]

From Marty's blog we have a statement that is not
WH // November 20, 2009 at 5:25 pm | Reply

“Based on the works” has become more and more foreign and far afield from LRH.

Initially “based on the works” had some validity. For example, because so few people could deliver excellent introductory lectures the hope was OP Z … which never launched. Oh … bits did launch but the intention never made it.

LRH gave CS 6 (Diana) the option of creating this feeder line OUTSIDE the orgs as separate units OR within the orgs.

BUT — it was doomed from the get go — why? Because you can create a policy (or set of canned lectures) and if it replaces a THETAN — then you have something worse than nothing.

You have – Policy where a thetan should be.

And sadly — after the late 70’s and early 80’s those of us who were thetans (OK we’re all thetans but you get my drift) — were replaced by policies and those policies kept getting further and further and further from LRH.

The old timers must be flabbergasted at what scientology has become …

Mike Goldstein worked on some of these Spec Ops OpZ projects under Diana and he may know more about what the the general Op4D program entailed.

The paradigm shift in Culture.

Some 40-50 years ago the Culture had issues with Gays, many slurs were used, Gays were even attacked violently.

In this day and age YOU are the prejudiced fool if you are ant-Gay and rightly so.

Some 40-50 years enormous prejudice on Blacks, then came the watershed moment of Rose Parks refusing to give up her seat on a bus (ordered to) because she was black.

In this day and age you are a bigoted fool if you engage in any prejudice against people of color.

I am fascinated with paradigm shifts in culture, where the whole conduct and attitude reverses itself and goes in a different direction.

Thus it is with the Cult of Scientology.

30 years ago the media found it taboo to reveal Scientology's dark, demonic and dirty secrets. I believe the Alex Gibney movie is a Watershed moment.

The paradigm shift is that media apparently now deem it unethical to NOT report Scientology crimes. The media WANT to report Scientology, Miscavige, Tom Cruise, Human abuses and all the dirty laundry.

Major reverse flip compared with a few years ago. Comments ?


Re "paradigm shift", meanwhile there's lots of stuff about Mae West in the hilarious "Scientology gangster movie" thread - read at the link below how censorship "helped" her career... Speaking of foot bullets...! :coolwink:

O.K. guys. I've been surfing around ESMB, and there are too many interesting threads to do justice to it all (what a timesink, but I LOVE IT!). I'm amazed and delighted by the collective wisdom, insight, experience, intelligence, compassion and humor that shines forth on this board.

So here's your chance to mine that gold and share some of your favorite words and phrases that others have written elsewhere on other threads. Quote writing that moved you, helped you to get clarity, eased your pain, or gave you a much needed chuckle! The only rule is, you can't post your own writing!

If you see something that you feel is really great and want to share it with others, post it here! Please be succinct, and post your favorite snippets only, not the entire thread! Yes, you can make multiple entries. Please give proper credit to the writers. Thanks!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's a start:

Favorite quote so far by Alanzo: "...as a thetan, I'm totally hot!" (I'm so there with you, Buddy!) :p

Favorite quote from BlueWigGirl (upon entering a thread): "Here I come to save the day!"

Favorite quote by Kha Khan:
I learned and drilled the "find the ruin" FSM drill a number of times over the years. Really, it is Scientology in a nutshell:
Find somebody's ruin.
Totally cave them in.
Take advantage of their vulnerable and (mistakenly) thankful state to sell them something.
No, actually, that is not good enough. Take advantage of their vulnerable and (mistakenly) thankful state to sell them as much crap for as much money as you possibly can.
Because the one thing a person whose ruin has just been found, and who is caved in and vulnerable, needs is to max out their credit cards and, if at all possible, mortgage their home to buy an auditing and/or training package.
Oh, and have fun spending your FSM commission.
What a religion. And talk about karma? Face it dudes, next life we're all coming back as dung beetles.

LOTS more to come! :)

The deluded, still-in in people like these aren't the enemy.
They are us, ten, twenty, or more years ago.
Some already have doubts but make a show of their bravado.
Some will watch Going Clear and go on to plan their escape.
And some will die, mistakenly believing in the goodness and greatness of an evil man.

The ones I have utter contempt for, are the ones like I once was.
The Squirrelbusters, the spies, the knowing liars and destroyers.
The ones for whom the obstacle of morality presented little challenge.

There comes a point where you recognize the delusion of it all,
but are too spent, and consider yourself beyond redemption, beyond salvage.
Many in OSA today are at that point, right on that edge,
afraid even to admit it to themselves; afraid it might read on the meter.

Some will make the leap, and some will find redemption, as I hope I may.

Because, in the end, we should leave this world with every bit of truth and every scrap of decency and honesty and love, that Scientology told us was not important.

Truth and freedom, power and sacrifice, existed long before L Ron Hubbard ever arrived to corrupt and defile their meaning. And they will continue to exist long after the small and vicious current cult dictator and his minions have departed in ignominy.

From the thread "Scientology ready to sue HBO for Copyright Infringement!":


I know it's been said a million times but it's hitting me like a ton of bricks now how all of this is one big dramatization of L Ron Hubbard's psychosis via the group he founded through the policies he wrote. That sounds so simple and obvious but it's profound in a way I can only sense and not put into words.

They are all imprisoned inside the mind of L Ron Hubbard -- no, they ARE collectively, the still living and actively dramatized mind of L Ron Hubbard. The only way to escape is to wake up from the trance and grab one's own mind back and run like hell.

They can't see it because Ron couldn't see it. No one hated and wanted to attack the media and the "outside world" more than Hubbard. His paranoia was deep and pathological. It is their duty and obligation to follow in his foot steps and do the same in utter, blind obedience because they ARE him.

OSA,

Have you ever, each one individually, stopped to think ---- yes, for yourself, like the slogan says- and given pause to reflect on your youth, your childhood, your innocence? It is gone. It has been trained and punished out of you. You have been trained that vacations are bad, wogs are bad, time with family is bad. Oh, I know no one SAID that but you know damn well that's how it goes.

When was the last time you had a vacation? A good rest? Plenty of time with friends and loved ones? Went to the zoo? Had a leisurely walk on a beach? Had time to pursue some long forgotten dream you had, make a painting, write a song or poem? You have been brainwashed that all these things are dev-t and off-purpose. Really? Whose purpose? You are backing a cult that wants exactly the product you see in the mirror. You!

You have been taught to fight this great monster, psychiatry. You have been told
that it is the beast and the root of all evil on this planet.

But, sadly my friends, YOU, have become the beast. Don't you see it? You have become fanatical, unthinking, order-following, punishing, robotic, punitive and vindictive. All in the name of a fight that was never yours. It was given to you!

One of the most important datum in scientology has to do with problems and PTSness. Has someone given you a problem? Think about it. You have had smoke blown up your asses and told how powerful you are and trained on cult/CIA bull-shit tech on how to destroy the enemy. We all played GI Joe and cops and robbers as children but we also chased lightening bugs and swung on tire swings and swam happily. Did you ever, in your wildest dreams, ever think you would grow up to:

Disconnect mother from child, father from child, and every other possible family configuration you can think of? Causing incurable sadness that goes the length of the very permanent disconnections?

Support a group that literally cleans out one's bank accounts til the person bleeds and has nothing and then has no time for them?

Support a group that takes in anyone who will contribute to it and then does not provide medical support for them but abandons them to taxpayer support even though it pillages millions upon millions of dollars from its members?

Support a group that uses supposed priest/penitent privileged confessions of its members against its members should they EVER speak out as is their right in this country? Support a group that is simply paranoid and afraid of freedom of speech?

Did you ever think you would work 40, no 80, right? hours a week doing just this,
only to realize you have nothing but a heap of shit as a product?

Yes, there have been many "wins" against psychiatry and saving a family, getting someone off psych drugs, etc. Not to be diminished, certainly. But one need not be in scientology to accomplish such. A group is handy, yes. But this group has played out to do more harm than good in the long run. By its own policies it will continue to do just that. Change is not possible within it. It's over.

Ever look at the cumulative list of SPs? Maybe you should be on it instead of all these people. You have become SPs. Dramatizing, foolish SPs. Unfortunately, most of you will continue to be "right" til you die.

But maybe, just maybe, one or two of you will wake up and start living your life.
And stop committing crimes against humanity and supporting others that do so in the name of scientology. scientology is just a name. Look beyond it. Look, don't listen, remember?

Godspeed.

This is precisely why fundamentalists and fanatics splinter, and why they fight each other harder than they fight outsiders. Think Salmon Rushdie and the "apostate" doctrine in fundamentalist Islam. Think Westboro Baptist Church, and well, every other flavor of Christianity. Think the $cilon's vehemence against a Squirrel. Think Milestone 2 versus all the other Indies.

Fanatics base their concept of self on knowing the Truth. That Truth is contained in their scriptures, and they can allow no other interpretation of it. The people who believe in something nearly identical, but with some minor variation, are more of a threat to their little mental worlds than the complete non-believers, or the believers in other systems. Those latter can be explained away as delusional or evil. But the ones close to home? They, if accepted, would force the fundamentalist to acknowledge that there is more than one way to look at their holy texts, more than one interpretation, and suddenly that comfortable sand castle of certainty meets the ocean of doubt. They will do anything to keep the tide at bay.

I've posted this before, but I just love this passage. It's from a book by a guy who grew up in North Carolina's Hill Country, in the middle of a group of fundamentalist Baptists. His father's friend is likely an agnostic, and runs a grocery store. He gets up a baseball team to challenge the Baptists, and loses to them badly. They rub the loss in to the grocer every chance they get, but they squabble with each other even more:

They weren’t about to hang back. If it wasn’t a scrawny jackleg preacher leaning on the greasy chopblock to sermonalize the hapless pudgy man, then it was some long-jawed deacon. If it wasn’t a deacon then it was a fierce-talking sister of the church, her gray hair pinned back, gray light glinting on her rimless spectacles. Not even the children gave him peace. Their parents had taught them to say, after paying for their Kool-Aid or peppermints, “Thank you kindly, Mr. Bound-for-Hell.”

He had a sense of irony and told my father that he’d come goddam near changing the name of his establishment to the Bound for Hell Grocery & Dry Goods and only backed off when he found out what it would cost to have his sign repainted.

And then Johnson Gibbs lost that baseball game Mr. Campbell got up against the True Light Rainbow Baptist Church. “That was a trial” he said. “There wasn’t one car on the road didn’t stop here for somebody to run in and tell me how I backed the wrong team because I ain’t sitting on the righthand side of Jesus.”

“I’d be more inclined to fault Johnson’s pitching” my father said.

“Suppose I’d been sitting on the sunny side of the Lord and we won that game. Where would that put them?” Mr Campbell said.

“Might have started a theological ruckus.”

“They can’t stand much more ruckus,” he said “There where the road starts up Turkey Cove is your Rainbow Baptist Church, and it’s a nice white wood church. You go on up the cove a piece and there’s a little old concrete block house which is your New Rainbow Baptist Church. A big chunk of them busted away in an argument over predestination. Another two miles is the True Light Rainbow Baptist Church, which starts off with a few concrete blocks and finishes up tar paper siding.”

“And if we’d won that baseball game?”

“They’d of had them another fight. You’d go up on the mountain and find a pup tent by the road. The One True Light Rainbow Reformed Holiness Baptist Church of the Curveball Jesus.”

“Too bad we didn’t win,” my father said. “I’d be curious to read the articles of faith of that one.”

Mockingbird said on the thread about Tom DeVoct's interview:

"Re: The recent Tom DeVocht Interview is really good
Here is a comment I posted at the Underground bunker regarding another in the endless parade of the terrorist mind control cult and total fraud Scientology's never ending mountain of crimes . It seems appropriate for this one , like all the others .

Cult of Scientology malfeasance!? I could spend the rest of my life talking about that !!!
I made the mistake of asking for the cult's crimes on ESMB about four months ago and got buried !!!

Almost every damned day I hear of or from a parent who is disconnected from a child or had to bury one because of the cult !!

It is a combination of infuriating and dissonant to see the depth of the evil AND the routine and usual "standard" way it is carried out . The institutional evil feels like it transcends what one can witness and still have a naive hope that people are automatically - with very few exceptions - good .

This is one of the hardest , darkest things for a Scientologist or ex to face - WE supported and to some degree participated in this . In a totalistic cult abuse is routine . In fact without the abuse it would not be a cult .

The abusive relationship makes the environment and actions that demand and achieve totalism . For a person or group to gain total or near total control over victims decision making needs this critical component.

Without this a groups' doctrine is not going to create that result .
Facing this can be overwhelming as it brings many things home all at once . First it completely negates the false claims for "workability" or any benefit from Dianetics and Scientology as Ron Hubbard is exposed as just another abuser and conman and malignant or traumatic narcissist who was a sociopath and cult leader , like so many others before him .

That alone is devastating . And it brings right out for all to see the fact that the cult member at the very very least was fooled and must reevaluate the majority of their beliefs . They lose the claims to wisdom and noble character and enlightenment that they had . They now know many acts and words were wrong and some may have been outright evil and harmful .

They may have disconnected from innocent people and even betrayed family and loved ones .Some committed bona fide crimes and some abused others while in the cult .
This factors into how hard it is to face that you have been living a lie - sometimes for decades .

I am sure to some ALL long term Scientologists are irrevocably evil or even damned .
I do not feel that way at all , but accept that judgment will be laid on me by some .
That is the exit cost for a Scientologist . A harsh reality of perhaps while thinking you are saving the world finding out you may have done more evil in Scientology than all of the good you may accomplish in your life after Scientology .

Facing the magnitude of evil in the group challenges your faith in humanity ; facing the evil you surely contributed to tests your honesty with yourself ."

Data gathered and excellent post written by looker:

Hmm in Tom Devocht interview He said Dave Miscavige's personal space at Hemet needed a $2.7Mill renovation it was originally built from conceptual drawings not blueprints. Its reportedly multi bedroom multi bath all top end stainless chefs kitchen, Granite counter tops Brazilian Rosewood floors Gym Sauna and Steam room, 2 home theaters. office area.

But then DM tells Tom D he cant live there. Tom D thinks WTF why not? Why spend the money to renovate it?

Could it be that if he is gaining benefit for personal use then it might jeopardize Tax exempt status???

So then DM buys a $4.5 Mill apartment complex near the Hemit land base and renos that so that he and best buddy Tom Cruise can stay there like millionair frat house boys.

Then in looking around the internet I found this DM interesting lifestyle profile from 2009 https://leavingscientology.wordpres...-miscavige-lifestyles-of-the-rich-and-famous/

There was an interesting post today about how David Miscavige spends parishioner money. And I’ve read and heard other accounts of how he lives.

Let’s put this in context. Here we have most Scientologists scraping and scrimping to get every possible bit of money to the Church. Some people have taken out second or third mortgages. Some have raided their retirement savings, or their inheritances. They’ve gone without that vacation or that new car to contribute every penny they can.

Then, too, we have thousands of Sea Org Members, working for less than $50 a week, with no retirement savings, no possessions, living in communal dormitories and eating cafeteria food.

And then we have hundreds of RPF Members, working seven days a week, year after year, for about $12.00 a week, living in packed dormitories with 30 or 40 other people.

All right, given that context, let’s see how David Miscavige lives.

First, he pays himself a six-figure salary. And that’s without having to pay for housing, food, clothing, or transportation. That’s about forty times what the average Sea Org Member is paid. Over the last 25 years or so, he’s paid himself something like three million dollars.

He wears $5,000 tailored suits, $500 Egyptian cotton shirts, the finest Italian leather shoes. The average Sea Org Member gets his or her uniform supplied, if they are lucky. If they want any other clothing, say something nice to wear on that rare day off, they have to buy it themselves. And if they want underwear, socks, toiletries, any other personal items, they have to buy those things themselves too. Out of their 40 cents an hour.

If he needs to fly somewhere, Miscavige routinely takes a private jet. I guess a commercial flight is beneath him. Apparently millions have been spent to fly Miscavige and his personal staff around the world in the last ten years. If a Sea Org Member has to go somewhere on business, it’s the cheapest flight possible. And if they have to go somewhere for personal reasons, say a family emergency, they (or their family) have to pay.

And for Miscavige’s personal ground transportation? No expense spared. A $50,000 Acura RL for the Int Base. A $25,000 Mazda Miata. An $80,000 Range Rover. A $150,000 bulletproof GMC Van. A $25,000 custom-made motorcycle. A $110,000 BMW M6 bought for him by ASI staff for his birthday. Another $45,000 Acura to use then he’s in Clearwater. Most Sea Org Members don’t own a car, and if they do, it’s an old clunker they can’t afford the insurance on.

Food? A personal chef who travels with him. Haircut? A personal stylist who travels with him. Laundry? Cleaning? Done by personal staff, who are paid 40 cents an hour.

And if he wants to throw a birthday party to impress his friend Tom Cruise? No problem. Dave threw Tom a $250,000 party aboard Freewinds in 2004, and another $250,000 party in 2005. And the food, décor, music and entertainment were all put together by Sea Org Members, paid $50 a week.

Dave needs a place to stay in LA when he’s in town? No problem, purchase a $4,600,000.00 apartment complex.

Miscavige takes lavish personal vacations – including many Caribbean diving trips and a five star tour of Scotland (including cases of sampled Scotch being shipped to Miscavige’s residence afterward).

Once Dave did an event a Celebrity Centre. He was sweating like a pig – it was an outdoor event in LA in August, so not too surprising. He hired an outside video special effects firm to erase the sweat sheen, frame by frame, at a cost of $150,000. Oh, and of course his make-up person (a Sea Org member paid 40 cents an hour) was RPFed for “sabotage.”

This is the world of David Miscavige. A world where he can spend any amount, buy anything he wants, all with millions of parishioner money. Your money. And lord it over the lowly Sea Org Members who surround him.

So now how do you feel about all those sacrifices you had to make to get as much money as you could to the Church?

And if you’re thinking, “Well, he’s worth it, isn’t he? After all, he’s booming Scientology,” then you missed a few earlier posts, like this one and this one.

NOTE: The links above for "this" and "this" are in the original document.

But for convieneince sake I have posted them here https://leavingscientology.wordpress.com/2009/08/12/fact-checking-david-miscavige/

Scientology is full of scales and charts that describe the state of awareness, etc. I would submit that we are now seeing the development of a new scale. It could be called something like the "Personal Integrity Scale".

Scientology starts out telling us, "What is true for you is true for you". We get it, we know what we know and place trust in that and we can expect Scientology to respect it.

Then the further one gets into Scientology, "What is true for you is suspect if it isn't true for LRH".

Then, "What is true for LRH is true for you".

Then, "What is true for LRH is suspect if it isn't true for you".

Then the final EP (End Phenomena) of Scientology is, "What is true for you is true for you regardless of Scientology".
