The tools of their trade were miniature transmitters, lock picks, secret codes, forged credentials and any other device they found necessary to carry out their conspiratorial schemes." SCIENTOLOGY'S INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL HISTORY In England, the "Inquiry into the practice and effects of Scientology" prepared for the House of Commons in 1971 (The Foster Report), produced a ban on Scientology that lasted several years. In 1977 Denmark, known for its tolerance, Scientology lost its protection contained in fhe criminal code of justice concerning the protection of religion. ' In 1982 the full Supreme Court of Victoria Australia ruled that Scientology was not a religion or religious institution but a sham. The court ruled Scientology was ~ body formed for an object that was illegal under criminal laws. ' In the mid 1980's France convicted L. Ron Hubbard in absentia for fraud. In 1988, in Milan Italy, 76 Scientologists were committed for trial charged with offenses from fraud, medical malpractice and criminal conspiracy to extort money, to unlawful detention. In a massive raid in 1990, Spain arrested 71 of the top international leaders of Scientology on charges ranging from fraud to tax offenses . The charges alleged i nvo 1 vement in fo rge ry of public documents, coercion, labor law violations, and illicit association. On July 6, 1990, France arrested 6 of the top officials of Scientology in France for the i1legal practice of medicine and fraud. If one was observing only a one time or single occurrence of " renegade " criminal activity of one or more adherents, Scientology's criminal history could be less relevant. Here, though, these activities were a part of the secret written policies of the group. As the FBI and IRS has repeatedly uncovered, Scientology's actions and policies were created, approved, and ordered by the highest levels of the organization. These are the day to day activities of Scientology, not "renegade" actions in spite of Scientology's never ending spewing of subsequent "damage control" cover stories. "This is a criminal organization day in and day out. It makes Jim and T ammy , (Baker) , 1 ook like k i nde rgarten . " So says Vivki Aznerand one of th~ six top executives in Scientology until her defection in 1987.

These descriptions were both accurate, but dangerously incomplete regarding Scientology's actual core nature. Scientology has two separate parts and personalities. It has an inner and secret Scientology of substance, and an outer public Scientology of front and form.2 Scientology's schizophrenic organizational personality is consistent with the historic models of the inner and outer circle structure common to past political secret societies. From this inner secret SUBSTANCE, outer public FORM perspective Scientology's seemingly many incongruities finally become congruent. The outer public Scientology can appear as a benign and intertwined mix of pop psychology, psychiatry, eastern philosophy, and a thick mantle of tradifional-sounding but strained religious terminology and trappings.' The inner secret Scientology can be better understood by studying the many parallels of cosmology, policies, and practices of earlier political secret societies, societies like the Thule Gellerschaft Virl, Ninja and Thugee clans, and the --------------------------------------- l.Judge Breckenridge in Church of Scientology v. Armstrong, No. C 420153 Cal. Super. CT. (1984). 2.Some past secret societies can be thought of as the forerunners of modern intelligence agencies. They are also notorious for setting up and disbanding front groups. The outer names or forms may appear to change but the inner substance, goals, and activitLes stay the same. Some front groups involved in either recruiting new members or covertly attacking adversaries for Scientology are: the Committee To Defend The First Amendment, the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation, the Citizens Commission On Human Rights, Narconon, the Committee On Public Health And Safety, the Task Force On Mental Retardation, the Gerus Society, the Dianetic Information Group, the Committee To Reinvolve Ex-offenders, the National Commission for Law Enforcement And Social Justice, the Foundation For The Communication of Culture International, Doctors For Religious Liberty, Vanguard, April, (a pseudo anti cult organization), Alliance To Protect Religious Liberty, Committee For A Safe Environment, American Citizens For Honesty in Government, the Way to Happiness Foundation, the Whistle Blowers, HealthMed, Criminon, Applied Scholastics, Concerned Businessman's Association of America, and Sterling Management. 3.This inditing strain can be seen, in part, by reviewing Scientology's original publications with newer edited editions and tracing how key definitions have been reworked to accommodate "the look and feel" of religious subject matter or where L. Ron Hubbard's controversial secular or political materials have been edited out. 18 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00004 Hashish Assassins.l The goals of these earlier political secret societies were primarily concerned with getting or maintaining political power and wealth. The world view of these secret societies often involved a special elitism. Several of these classes of secret societies had UFO or extraterrestrial cosmologies and world views confirming and bestowing upon them their "world historic destinies." Their secret society was the "only one" chosen to pl~y critical, often hidden roles in current and future world events.' These mystical cosmologies imbued members with a sense of "privileged" and exclusive secret knowledge. Like its political secret society ancestors, the inner Scientology also has its own mystical cosmology. "This universe is a rough universe. Its a deadly seri- ous universe. Only the strong survive. Only the ruth- less can own it. (From The History of Man by L Ron Hubbard, p.38.) The inner circles of these political secret societies traditionally controlled the outer circles with outright lies, blackmai 1, deliberate misdirection, or more subtle deception. These deceptions were often achieved by withholding information of a privileged or secret initiatory nature until the individual had passed the appropriate loyalty or security tests. Psychological coercion and physical terrorism were also day-today policies. The inner circle, where necessary, would use or sacrifice ignorant outer circle members or other lower level inner circle members as tools or deployable agents. "When you move off a point of power, pay all your obligations on the nail, empower your friends complete- ly and move off with your pockets full of artil1e ry, potential blackmail on every erstwhile rival, unlimited funds in your private account and the addresses of experienced assassins and go live in Bulgaria and bribe the police.... So to live at all in the shadow or employ of a power you must yourself gather and USE enough power to hold your own-without just nattering to the power to "kill Pete", in straight forward or more suppressive veiled --------------------------------------l.The Thule and Virl were two pre W.W.II German secret Societies. Many of the top Nazis who later created the political party and "religion" of National Socialism were important members. The Hashish Assassins played a secret key role in the political power balance of the Middle East for almost 600 years. Their organization is the origin for our word assassin. The Thugee cult from which our modern word thug is derived was a secret society that challenged British political power in India. 2.An excellent and well documented reference book for the secret society model which also references Scientology is "The Occult and the Third Reich, by Dusty Skylar. 19 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00005 ways to him as these wreck the power that supports yours. He doesn't have to know all the bad news and if he's a power really he won't ask all the time, "What are all those dead bodies doing at the door?" And if you are clever, you never let it be thought HE killed them-that weakens you and also hurts the power source. "Well, boss, about all those dead bodies, nobody at all will suppose you did it. She over there, those pink legs sticking out, didn't like me." "Well," he'll say if he really is a power, "why are you bothering me with it if its done and you did it. Where's my blue ink?" Or, "Skipper three shore patrolmen will be along soon with your cook, Dober, and they'll want to tell you he beat up Simson." "Who's Simson?" He's a clerk in the office enemy downtown." " Good, when they've done it, take Dober down to the dispensary for any treatment he needs. Oh yes. Raise his pay.".... "... we a1l aren 't on the stage with our names in lights, always push power in the direction of anyone on whose power you depend. It may be more money for the power, or more ease, or a snarling defense of the power to a critic, or even the dull thud of one of his ene- mies in the dark, or the glorious blaze of the whole enemy camp as a birthday surprise...." Real powers are developed by tight conspiracies of this kind pushing someone up in whose leadership they have faith.l Scientology's religious7 cloaking specifically helps give legal immunity to its dangerous' "Coercive persuasion"3 practices called --------------------------------------- l.Above 2 quotes from the policy "The Responsibilities of Leaders" by L. Ron Hubbard. This policy in many ways again echoes and reinforces the "fair game" policy and attitude. 2. Reports of induced neurosis, psychosis, attempted suicide and alleged suicide related to auditing are frequent and common knowledge at high levels in the Scientology organization but they are suppressed. For more information on Scientology's use of coercive persu?sion techniques see the included "Coercive Persuasion and Scientology" appendix. Coercive persuasion or thought reform is a coordinated technology of gradually applied, coercive influence and behavioral control. Coercive persuasion acts to gradually overcome the will without convincing the judgment. The victims are "unduly" influenced and lose their ability to make independent decisions or exercise an informed consent. Their defenses, cognition, values, attitudes, conduct, and ability to reason have been technologically undermined. For a more detailed technical definition of coercive 20 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00006 auditing. Auditing acts as an effective manufacturing and initiation system for the gradual step by step conversion of the new and naive outer circle members. It converts them first into unquestioning inner circle members and then into deployable agents or operatives. Steve Fishman, who is now serving 5 years in jail for SEC violations, is an excellent example of the level of control such organizations try to exercise. In the May 6, 1991 issue of Time magazine, Fishman claims to have been a long time Scientology intelligence operative. He claims that to protect Scientology he was ordered to commit suicide by high level Scientology executives. He was told to take "a short term loss" to prevent church embarrassment and involvement in the disclosure of his Scientology directed SEC criminal activities. (See following Fishman affidavit which has been included solely to highlight the similarities mentioned in this section. It is a little tedious in the beginning but clarifies itself starting arrounf page 4.) AFFADAVIT OF STEVEN FISHMAN I, STEVEN FISHMAN, am a former member of the Church of Scientology. I was on staff as the Fields Financial Planner of Fort Lauderdale, and later the Fields Financial Planner of Miami, between 19791988. I left the Church after a successful exit counseling attempt in August of 1990. I am currently serving a five year sentence for mail fraud in connection with my position at the Church of Scientolo gy. I am currently incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution of Tallahassee, Florida. I became acquainted with the civil lawsuit of Larry Wollersheim during the fall of 1985. Herein are the circumstances within which I became familiar with the case: During the summer and fall of 1985, I was being audited on my New Era Dianetics Grade V processing at the Mission of Fort Lauderdale and the Miami Organization of the Church of Scientology. Auditing is a form of spiritual counseling offered by the Church. My auditors were Nancy Witkowski in Fort Lauderdale and Leah Abady in Miami. In New Era Dianetics, the preclear, or person getting audited, is directed to view mental image pictures of pain and unconsciousness which the preclear or parishioner has been led to believe existed in his "past track" or successive episodes of past life experiences. The preclear is led to believe this through various mind control techniques, utilizing various forms of trance induction and hypnotic suggestion, namely the TRs or Training Routines, --------------------------------------...Continued... persuasion and an explanation of its tactics, see appendix of same title in this document. Also see the Reply to Brief in Opposition in Wollersheim v. Church of Scientology U.S. 89-1361 cert. den. (19B9), appendix C, and Respondent's Supplemental Brief of November 16, 1990 in U.S. 89-1361, the optional "Coercive Persuasion and Scientology" appendix, section 3. 21 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00007 and in the latter case, through either "reverie", "anaten" or "boil-off", which are Scientology-defined phrases for specific conditions of hypnosis. This is done with the aid of an electropsy- chometer, or E-meter. During-my specific experience with this New Era Dianetics (or NED) auditing, I was led to believe while under mind control that I had been the biological father of Jesus Christ, who was represented to me to be a very evil being, an enslaver of mankind who was given to violent rages and temper tantrums, and who was also a homosexual and molester of chi Idren. For five years (1985-1990) I be 1 ieved that I had "pulled the evil Christ into my own universe" by having been sexually attracted to his mother (Mary) as a young man, and further that she became impregnated by virtue of the fact that each morning I would watch her bathe in a stream and having become aroused by watching her behind reeds (bushes), the semen (ejacu- late) penetrated her via the movement of the current of the warm water in the stream. I was directed toward other (suggested) memories which were indicated by my auditors who measured the truth or falsity of these "events" on the E-meter, including the crucifixion of Christ, where I had believed myself to be present, having been directed to look at mental image pictures in a reduced state of hypnotic awareness of my having hammered his left foot to the cross, and other scenes. My viewpoint of Christ was that of Hubbard's himself, as evi- denced on Saint Hill Special Briefing Course Tape #112, whe re i n Hubbard stated that Christ died for his own sins. During this period of my auditing, my hatred for Christ reached a point where I felt an enormous level of guilt for having fathered such a "degraded being" as he was called by my auditors Witkowski and Abady. Further on in my auditing, after having sessions at the Flag Service Organization in Clearwater, Florida which validated or corroborated the results of the auditing in Miami and Fort Lauder- dale, I was given further data my Ann Glushakow and Margaret Supak regarding who "Christ really was on the whole track", or what the previous life cycles or incarnations of Christ were. At that point, at the order of Inspector General for Tech Ray Mithoff, I was given some OT (Operating Thetan) data which was normally not extended to someone who had not attested to the State of Clear. Under the supervision of two Class XII auditors, Richard Reese and John Eastment, and where my folder was personally Case Supervised by Ray Mithoff, I was allowed to see some confidential materials which were photocopies of L. Ron Hubbard's handwriting and pre- served in cellophane sheets. This data related to OT III, or the Wall of Fire, an advanced level in Scientology. I learned that there had been an Emperor Xenu who had brought us here to earth in an at t empt to solve o ve r po pu 1 a t i on on another 'planet called Marcab, or the Marcab Confederacy. I had asked Richard Reese where this planet was, and he showed me a Technical Bulletin (typed, not handwri tten, but marked Confidential), that explained that Marcab was the planet between Mars and Jupiter in our own solar system, which had been destroyed in a war or holo- caust which involved the use of the hydrogen bomb, and that this planet was now a fragment of rocks in space known as the "asteroid belt." 22 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00008 Further, I was given data where at the time the Earth was known as "Teegeeack", and that we (all thetans or spiritual beings here or the aggregate popul ation of the planet) were transported in clusters (packaged by the thousands together) and transported here in space ships that closely resembled DC-9 airplanes, and thereafter we were dropped in two volcanic areas, one of which was Las Palmas, and the other Hawaii. From there we dispersed and through various means, including going up through the evolutionary or genetic track (of picking up bodies), we populated the planet. I was finally told that Xenu, who had been the most evil being of all, was toppled in a revolt in which L. Ron Hubbard participated as a "loyal officer" of the people. I was further told by Reese and via the handwritten document I was shown of Hubbard's that Xenu was trapped in an electronic mountaintop, where "he was to this very day." After a rigorous Security Check on the E-Meter by Hans Stahli, who was the Qualifications Secretary of the Re ligious Techno logy Center, I was routed back to Ray Mithoff, and was told by Mithoff that the Emperor Xenu had many subsequent evil life cycles, and one of these was that of Christ. I had raised the question of how this possibly could have been true when the data in Hubbard's own hand indicated that Xenu was trapped in or on an electronic mountaintop, where he remained "to this very day." Mithoff explained that the body remained there, but Xenu, the thetan, had dropped the body and has created havoc as a chaos merchant on t~e planet ever since. The explanation made perfect sense to me at the time, as I knew from previous training and processing in Scientology that the body is nothing more than a vehicle which the thetan or spirit operates, much like one can drive a car, and then abandon it. The above preface is relevant to this case, as I will now explain. Mithoff revealed to me that having failed to take responsibility for "fathering Xenu when he was Christ", I had pulled in much pain and suffering into the physical universe. Further, that Christ was back, but this time, presenting the most dangerous threat to the only hope mankind had, namely, the Church of Scientology. Mithoff explained to me that Xenu / Christ had returned as Larry Wollersheim, and ~ needed to handle him and thus rectify my overt act or high crime that I had caused by virtue of the fact that I had fathered Christ as an illegitimate son in that lifetime. My hatred for Xenu Christ was now fixated and personalized against Larry Wollersheim. I felt compelled to destroy him, for I believed that he was the reason for all of humani ty 's ills and SOrrOW. I had been very active in the Guardian's Office of Scientology, working under Fred Hare, and in 1981, having destroyed the legal case of an ex-member suing the Church by the name of Lavenda (Van Schaick) Dukoff. After the Guardian's Office was renamed the Office of Special Affairs in 1983, I continued to work as a OSA Missionaire, under various Church officials, including Lyman Spurlock, who had participated in various covert operations, one of which was the recovery of some stolen documents (archival records of L. Ron Hubbard dating back to 1947-1948), which during said recovery, Lavenda's sister Lisa was raped. It was Lyman Spurlock who gave me specific data on Larry Wol- 23 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00009 lersheim. I was told that he lived in Aspen, Color ado, and that this parents owned a steak grill or coffee shop in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Office of Special Affairs, under the direction at that time of Edward Parkin and Lynn Farny, had ordered the Permanent Off Loading of Larry Wollersheim. Permanently Off-Loading someone means killing or murdering them, although we referred to the practice as "an enforced abandonment of the mock-up" and other Scientological euphemisms. It was Lyman Spurlock who told me that the Office of Special Affairs had ordered the Pe rmanent ly OffLoading of Wollersheim, and under the mind control influence I was under at the time, I fully agreed with the order, and further, I wanted to be an active participant in it. Lyman told me that the Office of Special Affairs needed someone with "great confront", (someone who could confront things more than other people were capable of doing), who could " handle" Wollersheim. The Office of Special Affairs had difficulty in locating Wollersheim at his home in Aspen, but concluded that at certain times of the year, such as on the birthday of his father and/or mother, or at Christmas, it was likely that Larry Wollersheim would be visiting his parents in Milwaukee. Further, Lyman Spurlock indicated that as soon as he knew from Office of Special Affairs operatives in the Milwaukee area who had the home and coffee shop of his parents under constant surveillance that Larry Wollersheim was visiting his father, Larry Sr., then that would be the best time for Larry Wollersheim to be Pe rmanent ly Off-Loaded . Lyman wanted me to relocate to the Milwaukee area and apply as a waiter, cashier, or other food service worker in Larry Sr.'s coffee shop, and if that were not possible to frequent the location as a "regular" and gain a foothold into that scene as a plant. Lyman told me that the best way to handle Larry Wollersheim was to "Pixie-Dust him", or have him given doses of cyanide poisoning. Lyman also had a very strong hatred for Larry's mother, whose name was Elinor. I remember her name because it was the same name as one of my supervisors, Ellie Bolger, the Fields Financial Planner Inte rnational. Lyman wanted Elinor to be Pixie-Dusted as well, which was supposed to serve as a means to localize the incident and deflect any responsibility away from the Office of Special Af fa i rs . There was another family member named Cindy who he disliked, but I do not recall how she was related to Larry. It may have been his sister, although I cannot recall more about her. I expressed an eagerness and a willingness to do the Operation, although ~ never was told what the name of the Operation was. However, I was not called upon to fly to Milwaukee, and two years later, I had asked my Ethics Officer, Dori Hare (Fred Hare's wife, as Fred Hare later became the Mission Holder of Fort Lauderdale), why ~ was never asked to handle Wollersheim. Dori Hare told me that I could not go anywhere when I was having ethics trouble of my own, plus, she did not want my production (of securities class action lawsuit claims) to be interfered with. I was also a telex/data entry operator for the Flag Banking Office Network External, later incorporated as part of the INCOMM Computer Network of Scientology, and I was one out of three people authorized to send and receive on the INCOMM network in connection with a global tax evasion and money laundering scheme known as Operation Paper Chase, so it was not possible, according to Dori Hare, for me to be 24 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00010 away from the Miami Org and/or Mission of Fort Lauderdale for any extended length of time. I also was having difficulties with the Church because of a PTS situation (Potential Trouble Source) occurring because my own parents had become antagonistic to Scientology as a result of conversations with a psychologist who was a friend of the family named Uwe Geertz, and who later served as an expert witness in my criminal case, along with Dr. Margaret Singer and Dr. Richard Ofshe, notable experts on thought reform and specifically on the Church of Scientology's use of mind control techniques. I was very offended that despite the fact that Lyman Spurlock had offered me the chance to kill Wollersheim, I was never invited to go to Milwaukee and do it. I argued that I was the most suitable for the job as I had been the father of Wollersheim when he was Christ. I further reminded Dori Hare that quantities of cyani de (provided to us by an employee of the American Cyanamid Corporation who was a Scientologist) was readily available at the warehouse in Miami under the custody of Warehouse Manager Charlie Fox, as well as the Flag Service Organization Warehouse, under the custody of Flag Warehouse Manager Bruce Ferguson. Nevertheless, Dori Hare told me that until my production was up and my own ethics were handled (with regard to my antagonistic parents), I was not going to be allowed to handle Wollersheim at all. I suggested to Dori that I would be willing to blow up an airplane that Wollersheim was on as a passenger, if she would provide me with that data when the Office of Special Affairs discovered when he was traveling on a plane in connection to his legal case against the Church. Dori Hare told me that too many innocent people would die along with Larry Wollersheim if I did that, and then I would be committing an overt act against these innocent people. She said that although Wollersheim deserved such a fate, that the airplane method was not the way to go about it. During the intervening year of 1986, on or around August 23, 1986, I went to Los Angeles to participate in the "Battle of Los Angeles", or the Anti-Wollersheim Crusade for Religious Freedom, as it was called. During that time, I worked under Deborah Truax, who was attached to Golden Era Productions, raising money for the Defense Fund by calling Scientologists all over the country. Although I raised $16,800 in contributions, my stat for that endeavor was "Emergency" because I failed to meet my quota of $25, 000, which in retrospect was an impossible amount to raise during the time period allotted. Deborah Truax admonished me and said that had my "conf ront " been sufficient and my "postulates" positive enough, I could have raised that amount from just one person alone. To compensate for this failure, I was asked to help her in the covert operations which occurred in the evening. On one occasion raided the trash can of Charles O' Reilly, who was Wollersheim ' s attorney at the time. I found nothing of value during that raid. During the night, ~ also was ordered by Deborah to call the home of O'Reilly as well as Psychiatrist Louis Jolyon (Jolly) West, who was assisting Wollersheim in his civil case against the Church. I was told to scream and threaten whoever answered the telephone. I was told by Bridge Publications Sales Manager Jon Stachelrodt that a campaign to harass Attorney O' Reilly, and another attorney named George Rosenberg, unti 1 their lives were made so miserable that they would " just give up in apathy. " 25 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00011 Later in 1988, Commander Kurt Weiland of the Office of Special Affairs had ordered "Wollersheim completely individuated from his attorney(s)", and this was communicated to me through the Director of Special Affairs of Miami , Humberto Fontana, who had been given this data at a confidential OSA briefing at Flag. Humberto Fontana had a group of us write letters to Charles O'Reilly at that time, telling him he was a fool for staying on the case because Larry Wollersheim was never going to settle no matter what, and he (O'Rei 11y) was never going to get paid. The letters were sent to O'Reilly somewhere in Santa Monica, California, and this was a different address from the location on Figueroa Street in Los Angeles where I had searched the garbage during the Crusade. These letters were sent to O'Reilly via remailing services which we used throughout the country. We did not identify ourselves as Scientologists, but rather as relatives of Wollersheim who were angry that "Larry didn't use his common sense and settle the thing." Some of the staff members who were mustered to write the letters were Linda Mac Phee, the Citizens Commission on Human Rights Representative; Fran Hardy, the Public Executive Secretary of Fort Lauderdale, and Toni Levy, the Personnel Procurement Officer of the Hubbard Communications Office in Miami. We sent the letters to O'Reilly via remailing services at the Mail Center of Chicago at 323 South Franklin Boulevard, as well as other locations we had access to in Gretna, Louisiana; St . Louis Missouri; and Ful1ert on, California. We were never told that the campai gn was successful, as I only recently learned that O'Reilly was no longer representing Larry Wollersheim, although I do not know whether our "Individuation Campaign" was the precipitating factor in it. After we lost the "Battle of Los Angeles" and Wollersheim had received a $30,000,000 verdict from the jury, the effort to overturn the decision through covert operations was stepped up as the case was being prepared to go before the appeals court. One method that I am aware of was to move money out of the country using such corporate shells such as Theta Management, ASSISCO, the Author Family Trust, the Church of Spiritual Technology (which manages the gold storage facilities and the RPF Estates Section used to accumulate profits (gold bullion) from Operation Paper Chase; as well as other lesser known entities such as the Church of Scientology Religious Trust, which recently became the successor in interest to the Author Family Trust, as control is now completely under the control of Religious Technol ogy Center Chai rman David Miscavige. Please evidence a document (attached hereto) which describes the actual holdings of the Church of Scientology, as directly quoted from International Scientolo~y News, Issue 24, which was printed by the Church of Scientology at the end of 1989: "In this decade (1979-1989) the VSD (Value of Services Delivered) has been running routinely at new highest ever levels and has expanded by over 800% with 1.1 billion dollars (emphasis added) of Value of Services Delivered." Nevertheless, the Church conducted a deliberate campaign to understate its assets to the Court in the Wollersheim case, in very much the same way as it understates income to the Internal Revenue Service on a routine basis. In March of 1988, as a matter of course in the performance of my post, I worked with Flag Banking Officer Leona Grimm in transfer- 26 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00012 ring funds to accounts maintained by the Church under the name of Theta Management at the Bank Leu in Lausanne, Switzerland; Bank Leumi in Tel-Aviv, Israel; the Ziraat Bank of Ankara, Turkey; the Indosuez Bank and the Banque du Commerce et Credite Internacionale both of Luxembourg, and the Foreign Commerce Bank of Vienna, Austria. I did the journals and reported the stats to the Flag Banking Officer International, David Gaiman, while the actual journals and transfers of funds were done electronically by wire at Flag. Leona Grimm signed off on all of my entries on the INCOMM computer. She had mentioned on two occasions that there was an urgency to get the records completed because of " mocked -up " ( f a 1 se ) reports requi red to be sent in to the Appeals Court in the Wollersheim Case. Our entries on INCOMM were forwarded to Carol Martiano at the Office of Special Affairs in Los Angeles, and then she in turn forwarded the completed and authorized documents to Larry Heller, who was the Church attorney arguing the case in California on our behalf. The above Affidavit is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

Cynthia G. Rona NOTARY PUBLIC, STATE OF FLORIDA My Commission Expires: December 12, 1994 Another important element to these previous political secret societies is the use of the ancestral processes of modern coercive persuasion as well as hypnosis and trance producing secret initiatory rites and exercises. These elements help isolate and desensitize the individual, build blind obedience, and develop a ruthless and fanatical will to execute the secret society's goals. "When someone enrolls consider he or she has joined up for the duration of the universe. Never permit an "open minded" approach. . . . If they ' re enrol1ed, they ' re aboard, and if they're aboard they're here on the same terms as the rest of us. Win or die in the attempt.... We're not playing some minor game in Scientology....The whole agonized future of this planet, every Man, Woman, and Child on it, and your own destiny for the next endless trillions of years depends on what you do here and now with and in Scientology. This is a deadly serious activity. And if we miss getting out of the trap now, we may never again have another chance. 27 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00013 Remember, this is our first chance to do so in all the endless trillions of years of the past. Don't muff it now because it seems unpleasant or unsocial to do Seven, Eight, Nine, and Ten."l Do them and we'll win " Without the various hypnotic and trance inducing initiatory levels intertwined into Scientology's cosmological cloak, Scientology's substantive and actual secret activities and motivations would become visible, long before the covert application of their coercive persuasion programs have had the opportunity to undermine the judgment, clarity~ and reasoning of their lower level or "outer circle" new members. "Psychiatrists say these sessions can produce a drug like mind controlled euphoria that keeps the cust omers coming back for more. Scientology 's secret inner cosmo1ogy also cloaks the ignoble intentions of Scientology' s founder, L. Ron Hubbard, to possess wealth, power and make other people his political and economic "slaves." 4 The secret inner cosmology cloaks the actual mental state, qualities, and motivations of L. Ron Hubbard. Hubbard at various times has been described as megalomaniacal and a pathological liar.S "We are not in the business of being good boys and girls.

(HCO policy letter of September 1, 1965 Issue VII.) "The purpose of ethics is to remove counter intentions from the envi ronment . " (HCO pol i cy letter of June 18, 1968.) In Scientology the creation of a fanatical "will to triumph" is reminiscent of another ruthless inner circle. In spite of overwhelming factual evidence, the top leaders of the Nazis continued to refuse to believe the war was lost. Isolated mentally and physically, they even continued to issue battle plans and orders to nonexistent armies. The allies literally had to fight the Nazi leaders to the near last Berlin bunker, but not before 50 million people first had to die.l History has painfully t~..ght us the result of secret conspiratorial fanaticism. Coercive political secret societies cut off their members from any opposing facts or opinions. They subvert rational and logical thought. Unfortunately, when a society becomes dominated or strongly influenced by such extreme groups or ideologies, only the most extreme deterrents historically have had any correctional or deterrent effect.~ THE CRIMINAL GOALS OF SCIENTOLOGY Scientology is, at its inner essence, an inte1ligence agency 2 and a political secret society. "In my opinion the church has one of the most effective intelligence operations in the U.S. rivaling even that of the F.B.I." From Ted Gunderson a former head of the F.B.I's Los Angeles office. --------------------------------------l.This is not to suggest that the inner Scientology and the former Nazi party are identical or somehow linked. There are although many similarities in policies, tactics, and esoteric goals, more than enough to validate model parallels and comparison. 2.Scientology operates an intelligence division formerly called the G.O., now called the OSA. It is smaller in scope and similar in operation to the C.T.A., K.G.B., or Mossad. In the training manuals for Scientology's intelligence operations seized by the F.B.I., L. Ron Hubbard states that Scientology has the best intelligence service in existence today. For more detailed information on Scientology's intelligence agency, see "A Piece of Blue Sky" by John Atack, part 5, "The Guardian's Office." Also see the documents seized by the FBI concerning the G.O., its training manuals, and its covert operations manuals. 29 \App 2 - Criminality\Page.00015 For the liability shielding benefits of religious protection Scientology uses a veneer of extraterrestrial cosmology consisting in part of alien space wars and the creation of a new ~uperman, the Homo Novis, the Clear, and the Operating Thetan, (OT).' For the privileged inner initiates there is even a cleverly created secret adaptation of traditional and science fictionesque neo-sat anism. 3 Scientology's cloaking cosmology helps to secure both undeserved first amendment religious immunities for its experimentation with thought reform and is part of an absolutely essential internal cover story to the newer outer circle members. It covers the organization's motivations behind its criminal and antisocial actions and policies, and its actual anti-religious, political power, wealth, and control goals. "The vital targets on which we must invest most of our time are: (T1) Depopularizing the enemy to the point of oblite ration. (T2) Taking over the control or alle- giance of the heads or proprietors of all news media. (T3) Taking over the control or allegiance of key political figures. (T4) Taking over the control or allegiance of those who monitor i nte rnat i onal finance and shifting them to a loss precarious standard".... "Intelligence is not concentrating on what they should be - the WFMH, [World Federation of Mental Health] the NAMH [National Association of Mental Health] These are the groups I want destroyed." From the Hubbard Communications Office Policy Letter of 14 Jan. 1969, " Thus in the case of Scientology Orgs [organizations] one should attack with the end view of taking over the whole field of mental health." "Our war has been forced to become, to take over abso- lutely the field of mental healing on the planet in all forms." "Our only justification in doing these things is thaf Scientology is the only game where everybody wins...."'
