SPYMASTER MISCAVIGE CAUGHT RED HANDED (...again)

“1.1 -- Uses sly means of controlling others, especially hypnotism.

“1.1 -- Ingenious and vicious perversions of truth. Covers lying artfully.

“1.1 -- Nullifies others to get them to level where they can be used. Devious and vicious means. Hypnotism, gossip. Seeks hidden control.”
(LRH - Science of Survival)

Ever hear the word “pretexting”?  Pretexting is a ruse where a private investigator lies about his identity or purpose to obtain data about another individual they can use to their advantage. This article is intended to warn you so you are prepared and won’t be caught off guard.

Pretexting is the act of creating and using an invented scenario (the “pretext”) to engage a targeted victim in a way that will likely result in victim divulging information or doing something that gives the other side an advantage. This is often done through a phone call or a text message. Examples to follow.

More than just a lie, it most often involves some prior research or setup and the use of assumed information for impersonation (e.g., date of birth, Social Security Number, last bill amount) to establish legitimacy in the mind of the target.

This technique has been used on myself, and on two other occasions when by a fluke I happened to be standing there: with Mike Rinder and another time Marty.

The ploy is intended to trick you into disclosing information such as your exact location. It’s run by private investigators working for Church attorneys.

A pretexter may use a variety of strategies to obtain personal information. In one scenario, for example, the pretexter might call an individual claiming affiliation with a phone company, survey firm or credit agency. In another scenario, a pretexter might claim to be a customer, client or employee of a company to gain access to phone or electronic records.

My experience

Last month I went to Los Angeles as a witness in an upcoming trial involving the Church of Miscavige

The night before I left, Miscavige wanted to know where I was so made seven pretexting attempts to find out where I was -- four text messages and three phone calls as follows. Now in their case, they mix it up with a little hacking:

7:31 PM 
PHONE CALL from 1 (214) [displaying my own cell phone number so it looked like my own phone was calling me]  TX, USA

7:32 PM
PHONE CALL from 1 (214) [displayed my own cell phone number]  TX, USA

At right is a photograph of that last text message I received.

In addition, there were 113 failed attempts to hack into Scientology-cult.com on the same day, a spike.

How stupid is this?

I think I know who they've hired for their PI work. Napoleon Dynamite... who sub-leased the work out to his brother Kip... who in turn gave the job to his moron Uncle, the one who lives in an old van. I mentioned by sheer cooincidence I happened to be standing with Mike and later with Marty when the Church pulled the same stunt. But how do I know for sure it was the Church? Well, when it happened with Mike, I took a photograph of his phone.

You'll note the phone number is the SAME.

The Church of Miscavige really is IN the news. But not in a good way:

Secret Extortion Files Discovered in Italy

May 20, 2010 - Suspecting the Church of violating laws regarding the handling of personal information, the Italian government raided the Church of Miscavige (Scientology) in Turin on May 20th and caught them red handed. Acting on a search warrant, the police went to the organization located on Via Bersezio and search for 9 hours. Hidden behind locked doors in the basement, they found a secret archive containing sensitive information on magistrates, policemen, journalists, former members and even the relatives of former members. The files included their sexual habits, health, political leaning, etc. Magistrates are now examining the materials but have already said they are "chock full" of sensitive information.  You can find more information here: lifeinitaly.com

Jan Eastgate covers up sex abuse of 11-year old girl

Now if you remember Marty's story about the 20 DM-bots sent down to Texas two weeks ago, you will remember that one of the people sent down there was none other than Jan Eastgate, the international head of CCHR (Citizens Commission on Human Rights) in Los Angeles. Of course, like all of us, you no doubt thought, "What kind of leverage does David Miscavige have on Jan Eastgate that she would agree to run damage control for him?"

Well, yesterday it turned up in the news that she allegedly covered up a case of sexual abuse -- involving an 11-year old girl who was raped. Eastgate is now accused of interfering with a police investigation by coaching the 11-year old girl and her mother on what to tell police and community services. She told an 11-year old girl it was her own fault for getting raped; that it was because of something she did in a past life. For more information, visit ABC News.

LESSON

These stories illustrate two things:

1) The liability of an organization with NO moral compass.
2) The futility of "dishonesty in the name of honesty."

Clearing starts within.

There’s a big difference between hitting a body and hitting a being.

You can’t hit a being... no location in space!

The same is true of the indie field. This is our strength. We are fabian because we are not operating on the third dynamic (groups). We are operating on the seventh dynamic (thought).

Miscavige is going mad because there’s nothing to hit. No solid target.

I’m sorry. I keep getting goony emails from plants urging us to work up a “plan” and an org board. They want us to decide “who’s going to take over after DM?” Etc.

But that’s not our problem.

There is power in simplicity and our de facto plan is embodied in simplicities: “Expose criminality.” “Put in order.” “Ignore the confusion.” “Connect up.” “Flourish and prosper.” “Ignore Dave.”

You KNOW Dave is uncomfortable with that.

Check out the Know to Mystery Scale. You will find “Not Know” close to the top. Exactly how will it all play out? We don’t know. We don’t need to know. Why? Because we are operating on knowingness not “MEST” (matter, energy, space and time).

Stripped of pretense, OSA’s phony emails to me state the problem as “the independent field has no management. No leaders. Everyone’s just doing their own thing.” Apparently, this is terrible. Horrible. Heinous. Hideous. Unacceptable.

Oh, I don’t know. Some say we’ve done quite well in less than a year. You might even chalk up a first-round TKO.

Maybe dumb-struck Miscavige can’t stand a field because there’s nothing in it to unmock. He wants us to form an official organization.

In other words, he wants us to form a solid target so we can be hit, sued, taken over and destroyed.

I say, no thanks.

We don’t need an organization. After 10, 20, 30 years as Scientologists you can bet we have long since internalized LRH policy. We form up, wear hats, get products and produce change without anyone every having to issue an order or a formal org board, without any leaders, without any management.

We use Scientology and operate on LRH principles while remaining totally independent, free and able. And happy.

We are not operating on the third dynamic. We are operating on the seventh and mobilizing the fourth to get ethics in on the third.

We will not make the mistake of being pulled down into a mockup so we can be unmocked.

We are OT by design.

Church of Miscavige launches retaliatory email campaign to discredit Anderson Cooper

david-miscavige-vs-anderson-cooper

The email below is being circulated today in response to CNN's special Scientology: A History of Violence which aired March 29 - April 2, 2010 on Anderson Cooper 360. Just as they have done with Marty Rathbun, Mike Rinder, Steve Hall, Amy Scobee, Tom Devocht, Jeff Hawkins and other whistleblowers, the Church of Miscavige is now doing with Anderson Cooper. The Church of Miscavige has become a hate group because it is actively creating hate through character assisination and black propaganda. The church behaves like organized crime because it is organized crime. What kind of "church" would write and circulate an email campaign like the one below:

To:

More on Anderson Cooper.  I didn't know he had had ECT.  Now this explains everything. Thanks Ron for this data. I knew he was homo but not a fan of ECT.  Electro Shock Therapy where they put an electrode on either side of your temporals and send a jolt of electricity through your brain to solve a problem you have. They dont have a clue and anyone know who has had ECT is now a mixed up jigsaw puzzle--and dangerous.

Subject: How to talk to Anderson Cooper about violence


Anderson Cooper on CNN is a major promotor of electric shock treatment and says he is one who has undergone ECT many times.

He is an active gay and a promotor of a "gay life style."

Anderson Cooper was trained to be a CIA agent but was promoted into TV "News."

If one wanted to summarize Anderson Cooper's career, if you said he  was a merchant of chaos and first and foremost a promotor of violence,  you will have it in a nut shell.

So, how should one talk to a standardly gay CIA agent who dearly loves and has had lots of ECT performed on him to make him a better person  and newscaster and believes it has, when he wants to portray you and  your group as violent?

 
AC360 and the CornCOB Awards PDF  | Print |  E-mail

Wednesday, 31 March 2010 02:12

corncob-awardFirst, thanks to everyone for your kind words and validation on Marty's blog. And thanks to Anderson Cooper, the Producer and executives of CNN who had to endure all the crap thrown at them by the Church of Miscavige since last July.

Early on in Scn-cult I was going to create the “CornCOB Awards” and tonight I think we should go ahead and institute the program. And the first winner is…

Hold on… it’s a five-way tie!

CornCOB Award #1 goes to Tommy “Goober” Davis who said tonight on national TV, “It’s not much of a stretch for them to all get together, corroborate their stories, and find some other people who left years ago… and come to the news media and attack…” and then he forgot to say, “…and fly to the moon on magic fairy wings made of Cheetos carefully sewn together by enchanted toads.”

Okay, Goober… Gomer…. what about the 245 articles now on Scientology-cult all of which corroborate effortlessly in the most minute detail? That level of detail goes WAY beyond several mere IDIOTS getting together, learning their script under threat of expulsion and lying on TV. People that do that, look and act like… they look like… look like… look like you and your four Robo Women we saw tonight on CNN. Their TRs were out, they were mis-emotional, they cut comm, their manners were horrific and their attitude was inhuman.

I think your statement cuts right to the heart of your own little project. Thank you for exposing yourself on national TV. And while you and the Stepford Ex-wives possibly believe your own grand statements, the other 6,245,607,933 inhabitants of earth are going with a different theory: countless eyewitness stories from dozens of people corroborate because… hum… maybe they’re factual?

CornCOB Award #2, 3, 4, and 5 go to the sex-starved divorcees bragging how they’ve slept with a man and so “know every inch of him.” I don’t know why a sequined Magenta didn’t join you along with Frank-N-Furter from the Church of Rocky Horror doing the Time Warp. Outraged but dutiful ex-wives? Or sex-starved maniacal Janets from another galaxy who can’t even dress themselves appropriately?

How is the world supposed to respond to that? This is the script you got from Dave who told you what to say? Here’s some feedback: Your private bedroom sojourns are not really fitting subject for nationwide television nor becoming of a lady.

Bottom line: when the shit was hitting the fan at Int (which for some of us was all the time) those of us on the front line were lucky to even see our spouses for weeks on end. Maybe you didn’t see anything because it’s DARK at 5 am FOUR DAYS LATER when they finally got home. You’d already been sleeping for hours, oblivious except for the juicy briefings you got from Dave at staff meeting. Three hours later you’re gone when your husband is buried in pain after not having slept for 40 + hours. By then, he's hurting so badly from sleep deprivation who cares about a fat lip they got a week ago, which if they mention it, it’s guaranteed to earn them MANY more public beatings.

But even that is a fairy tale, since the truth is if Pope Miscavige takes it upon himself to issue a beating, the victim isn't going to see the inside of his home for weeks or months. He is automatically and instantly declared a “security threat” and confined to the base by Dave’s own standing orders. Maybe that explains the Joker grin on Jenny's face, the eager lust of Cathy Rinder, the pomposity of Kathy Hawkins, and the coke-head/water moccasin charm of Anne Rathbun. Ugly, ladies. Ugly.

So your husbands slept in their office floors or in the filthy trailer infested with spiders and crawling ants.

Since you’re all so full of theories, here’s mine for you: Under the influence of your friend Dave you pathetic cretins forgot what the word “wife” meant and disowned your husbands in violation of every basic Scientology tenant because Dave told you to. You didn’t know what was going on because -- except for some physical familiarity which we don’t want to hear any more about ever again -- you never knew your husbands at all.

Dear Kathy, Jeff said you had a “heart of gold” and Anderson passed along the comment. What do you think the world was thinking when YOU cut off Anderson Cooper after he was gracious enough to have you on his show? How about “GNO!” That’s “gold no more.” (Maybe it was once gold, but now it’s just lead… and lead is toxic.)

The rest of you have hearts of mud… all except Anne (Marty’s ex). Her heart pumps sulfuric acid.

Anne, you have done the amazing thing by winning a second CornCOB Award. I don’t know how it’s even possible to tie with yourself in the same contest, but somehow you’ve done it. You also win the sixth award for grunting pig-like that you know Marty “better than anyone.” Oh yeah, dream on impostor, stewing in your noxious juices. You don’t know anyone.

A real woman stands by Marty now and nothing could tear her away because she is strong, kind, and she knows what it means to

Stand by your man,
And show the world you love him,
Keep giving all the love you can,

Stand by your man.

But that’s not all. Tonight in exchange for bragging about your sexual exploits, and every inch of your Freudian innuendos, you win not only your own CornCOB Award, but a lifetime supply of dick jokes courtesy of every comedian this side of the Red Curtain.

Every time you guys open your mouth, you set a new standard for Scientology: lowest ever.
