Tim, we all know CofS uses PIs, that's nothing surprising.
The old GO had a much different and more capable personel pool for these actions but they have always used PIs for certain things.

Yes, the old GO had an excellent personnel pool for Invest. And many of the good investigators were volunteers or non-GO staff. It seems that the increased use of PI's really started to occur in the 80's.

Do you have any idea what ops they were working on?

Lynn

No, I didn't have those details since I was in PR and the B1 guys did not talk about that stuff. We knew they were doing ops and we knew they had volunteers (Guardian Activities Scientologist -- GAS) as did PR, we just never new what the ops were about. That's all part of the B1 tech.

Most of what I recall from the 80s was trying to set up and frame lawyers who dared to represent someone against the church.

I remember we shown video footage of some OSA volunteer "Joey" setting up some high-fallutin' lawyer Michael *****(?) and getting him to talk about matching the fonts (type face) of policies so that disruptive policies could be snuck into the org without looking obvious.

They need not have bothered.

DM has done it all on his own.

1) Brainwashing __________

2) Hidden Story of Scientology __________

3) Part 1 South African Submission __________
(to be read in office space)

Does the contents of these books appear on the net?
..From the intelligence course checksheet.. I never did that course..

However:

1) Brainwashing
This is The Brainwashing Manual
I believe.. Can anyone confirm? - I think even B1 staff were fed the shore story that this was written by Beria..

2) Hidden Story of Scientology
Unsure.. I 'think' I recall a PL or lecture by that title?

3) Part 1 South African Submission
A GO programme.. (I'm almost sure) - Confidential, hence to be read in office space.

:yes:

(1) = correct on all counts.

(2) = Omar Garrison's book "The Hidden Story of Scientology".
A pro-scn treatise (written in the 70s, I believe) by Garrison detailing the war being waged against Hubbard and his technology by various "enemies" (the AMA, Psychs, Pharma, CIA, BBB etc).
http://www.freezone.org/timetrack/data/Hidden_Story/index.htm
In B1 it was a sort of "know your enemy" handbook and contained much of the dead-agenting material.

(3) The final chapter (chapter 10) of the Garrison book contains data about/from The South African submission.

Oh lookee what I found: A 54 page PDF file (2.5 MB) of GO drills on spreading rumours, third-partying etc. etc.

http://d.scribd.com/docs/cg0nwmnsyf15uo2kofj.pdf

I don't know if the CofS will want to admit authorship by requesting a takedown for copyright reasons or not. :)

Paul

Oh Paul what a clever chap you are!

54 pages of how to be a totally nasty unholy prat. Fascinating!

What a lovely group I was part of. Not!

I've read enough to believe it to be genuine.

CO$ can't order it down, because that would be to admit authorship, nor can they deny authoriship and call it a planted document. Spread this link far and wide, get Tory to put it on her YT videos, send it to OCMB, anywhere.

Even though the scans/copies are very degraded and some have been rendered illegible, I am satisfied by what I have examined that the typography complies with internal documents, and all the XXXXXX of typos is consistent with the lack of correction tapes at the time these documents would have been generated.

It boggles the mind trying to calculate just how long "Snow White" was operating.

OP Snow White is still in 'operation'.. It would surprize the hell outta me if it wasn't..

And, yes. These docs are genuine as far as I can tell/recall.

:yes:

I didn't read it very thoroughly the first time. It's not all drills. There are instructions on how to burgle places and also infiltrate government offices and copy things. Note that these are docs seized by the FBI in the 1977 raid, so there is no legal value in their exposure, and the CofS will say that the GO is disbanded and they don't do that sort of thing any more. Oh yes, true, except for that time we got caught recently, but he was a bad apple and we got rid of him.

It's a bit like saying your priests try not to bugger altar boys any more. It doesn't have a whole lot of great PR value (for them....) :)

Secondly;
One method of handling a target Critic.
Contact the target Critic by phone, pretending to be a fellow-critic. Agree with the person’s criticisms of scn and voice your own (*see note on “suitable criticisms” below).
Become more strident and whiney until you successfully annoy the person into refuting something you are saying.
Had someone call me on our cult watch phone. It could have just been some nut job but thankfully I'd read this article so didn't treat it on face value. One important point was the person was pretty keen to get a surname, so I gave him one, just not mine. I was also drunk and even went to the trouble of calling them back to chat some more. Since then I have had two "wrong numbers" which may have been more subtle attempts to get my surname.

Thanks for the timely heads up Panda Termint.

You're very welcome. :)
Yes, they are still doing this caper on the phone lines.
It seems that it's used on forums and message boards too but the biggest danger (to CofS) there is that the OSA Operative gets exposed too much truth about scn. :D

So, when dealing with a troll on our board one could make a game of it so to speak. Hmmmm.:whistling:

Yes, Tim.

At least, that's what I try to do. I tend to hold to the idea that all who are still caught in the CofS mind-trap are just a "sudden realisation" away from breaking free of it all.

See Just Bill's excellent essay on the true nature of scn thought-control on his AskTheScientolgist Blog; http://askthescientologist.blogspot.com

I like to point them to data that helps them see the truth.
Cheers, Panda.

I've never heard of an OSA operative. When I was in Scientology they had the G O. Is it the same sort of thing?.
Same thing, different name, different ability level, better technology, less capable Beings, same Master, more accrued overts, less accrued case-gain.
Read this thread. :)
