Mark 'Marty' Rathbun: Scientology Top Management (video of Marty being ambushed)

[HelluvaHoax!]

I would assume that any major media site that wants to show this vid would have to verify the three people...as to who they are.

IMO....it would be easy for Yager's identity to be verified........but tougher for the other two?

But Marty does have it listed on YouTube for "Commercial use".....so I suppose he might have done some work on providing verification....already.

Also very easy to verify who JENNY LINSON is because she was featured on major network expose before (Anderson Cooper).

No problem for any news outlet to run with this as yet another "Scientology Crazies" story.

Jenny is easy as pie - she was on CNN representing the cult as one of the "wives" in a interview with Andersen Cooper just two years ago or so. No problem there. (and HH beat me to that point already : ) )

Bloomberg shouldn't be too difficult either, though his name wasn't that familiar to me it was to lots of Exes. His position is in exec strata and I'm sure a little googling or even the google cache could confirm his ID on even official cult websites.

But Jenny and Yeager - that wouldn't take more than 30 seconds to definitively confirm their ID for any legit media outlet doing research.

(chanting): GO DRUDGE! GO DRUDGE!! GO DRUDGE!!!

ps: I wonder if enough people sent in a TIP about the Airport Attack video to the Drudge Report, whether they might very happily take notice and post it on their front page? It sure has enough viral momentum and "cult crazy" in it to juice their already killer website's ranking. The Drudge Report gets twelve million unique viewers each day.

I just sent Drudge an e-mail "TIP", linking the YouTube video with an email headline that reads: "Top Scientology execs rant: "Nobody give a F*CK about you!"


Here is the info from Drudge's FACEBOOK page on how to e-mail a NEWS TIP to Drudge:

SEND NEWS TIPS TO DRUDGE: [email protected]

LOL, you must have a spycam up in my room, either that or some amazing OT abilities.

Immediately after posting my earlier message that you replied to I went to Drudge Report website and send a "tip".

I went to www.drudgereport.com and scrolled down til I saw this on the right side of the page:

He's run a number of scientology stories in the past year or so and I'm hoping he'll link to this one as well.

Also I sent tips to a couple other publications as well.

Thanks!

That link above (directly on the Drudge website, near bottom right) is even simpler than what I posted (their "news tip" e-mail).

Drudge Report hasn't ever been shy about posting cult-crazy stuff about Scientology before. They might really love this one! LOL

I've only known Bloomberg to work at ASI. Did he get transferred to Exec Strata? It happens; I just wasn't aware of it with him.

EDIT: Just saw where Marty said he was in Exec Strata. Must have happened after I left.

ASI is not technically part of COS (though that's obviously bullshit; the staff is all Sea Org). I don't think he'd come up on a COS site.

I don't know. Fuck him.

Sindy.... you crack me up! I luvs your posts... I've blown more coffee, pop, and beer through my nose the last 2 days than I have in years!

Yes, you're right....forgot about that Media dog and pony show...

International Business Times has a follow-up article with a short interview of Marty.

A First-Hand Look At The Ultra-Secretive Leaders Of Scientology
http://www.businessinsider.com/a-fi...ltra-secretive-leaders-of-scientology-2014-10

Excerpts:

The video “affords a very rare glimpse at the personalities who are actually running Scientology at the highest levels,” Rathbun told International Business Times.

According to him, Scientology’s top leaders have not been seen in public since appearing on CNN in 2010. “No one has seen hide nor hair of them since,” Rathbun said.

Rathbun said a recent lawsuit may have been the trigger for the latest incident. His wife Monique, who is not a Scientologist, filed suit against Miscavige charging she was harassed by the church for four years.

“I believe they were attempting to incite me to assault one of them so that they could arrange an arrest to discredit me,” Rathbun said about the incident he documented on video.

A request for comment from the Church of Scientology had not been answered by the time of publication.

Yes, until I read Marty's blog I had no idea he was exec strata either - only that he ran IAS - but I trust Marty's info would be more recent. Mine, like yours, came from someone who knew his position as it was 20 years ago.

I actually went to google some info on Scientology execs and was amazed that there zero, zip, nada on ANY other executive or management person listed besides DM anymore. They at least used to have a page or two with some figure heads listed with the cult as contacts or people in executive positions - but even that has gone poof! If you had to go on their website alone you could only deduce that the entire organization is run top to bottom by DM - because he is the only leader that is allowed to be named.

It only proves what we've all known for many years - DM is the only real power in Scientology. Everyone else is mere pawn on his chessboard that he discards or throws into the hole as he sees fit. No one breaths or makes any decision of any consequence without his express approval or direction.

Gotta make you wonder how small the cult truly has become that he can be the sole source of direction and leadership. At least in the 1980's and 90's the organization was far too large and complex for him to micro-manage to the extent he does today.

Of course co$ has no comment, having been caught with pants around ankles. But given enough time, they will concoct something to place blame on Marty.

The story of Scientology ambush and harassment of Marty Rathbun is now in Dutch

The story of Scientology ambush and harassment of Marty Rathbun is now in Dutch.

As noted above, Stern Magazine had a story in German. Now we get a story in Dutch:

VTM: DIT GEBEURT ER ALS JE UIT SCIENTOLOGY STAPT
http://nieuws.vtm.be/buitenland/113178-dit-gebeurt-er-als-je-uit-scientology-stapt

Google Translation from Dutch to English: THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET OUT OF SCIENTOLOGY

Excerpt of translation:

Scientology is not a religion like any other, was already known. Less well known is maybe you never really leave Scientology once you have repented, like Christians, for example be able to ontdopen. That "apostates" continue to face lifelong problems within Scientoly one knows Marty Rathbun recently all too well.

He was for 25 years a member of Scientology, but left ten years ago the organization. When he three top members of Scientology ran into at the airport of Los Angeles, he got the worst insults hurled at his head. He could have shot below of it.

Story then links to the video

Marty's video got posted onto a message board where lots of EX-Jehovah Witnesses hang out:

The thread title:
High Ranking Scientology Members Go Crazy

Here's a couple comments that caught my attention:

I saw that earlier. Thay are a strange and malicious cult.

These people leave no doubt that they are batshit crazy.

Gee, that's unfortunate. Have either of them considered consulting a psychiatrist, I wonder...

It's comforting to know that there are other former members of cults that are similarly mistreated besides us.

I was talking with a scientologist a few months ago, we got into a argument about the person donating over $5k to the IAS. I kept saying but what about your Bridge, how will you afford it? It was kind of a heated conversation.

The person said he truely believes in DM & International Management. And the person even said I don't care, I'm happy to help with money. The person said even if I'm getting brainwashed and die broke, I don't care. The person said I fully trust Int Management.



My conclusion, scientologists do not look at the COS website, why should they, they get promo in the mail showing all the Truman Show expansion. Scientologists are not taught to use logic, although they think they do. Scientologists can not even apply KSW. And scientologists do use critical thinking. And scientologists are taught to not question.

Although we ended our conversation on a good note, a few days later I'm like to myself. How does one even talk to a scientologist in this mindset?

Agreed, and what I find remarkable is that everyone else around him not only tolerates but appears to endorse that situation even though they can see for themselves not only how disastrous the consequences are, but how little regard he has for those who do his bidding.

It's as though they've all made the computation "DM=LRH" (after first mutually agreeing that LRH was infallible).

I was wondering. Does any one give a flying fuck about these three brainwashed morons?
