Church of Scientology finally gets foothold on NSA — Washington Star-News
More: link
Type: Press
Author(s): Vernon A. Guidry Jr
Source: Washington Star-News
The National Security Agency is the kind of operation in which the public affairs office telephone is answered with a four-digit number rather than a name, a practice that even the CIA has abandoned. So perhaps it wasn't surprising when NSA time after time told the Founding Church of Scientology of Washington that it could find no information in its files about the church, nor its founder, L. Ron Hubbard. The church had made repeated requests over a number of months, ...

WASHINGTON — After doggedly filing more than 150 Freedom of Information Act requests for documents, members of the Church of Scientology have obtained thousands of government papers that had been hidden in files of offices ranging from the Central Intelligence Agency to the Labor Department. "We were appalled at some of the things on file about us," said Kathy Flanagan, an ordained minister of the 22-year-old church, who has been working on the FOI project. "Outright lies. Gross distortions. Stuff right ...

The bill would require that if the United States is to continue its membership in Interpol, the international police agency, then information on Americans kept by Interpol overseas should be made available for recall if requested.

The American Friends' Service Committee, the first, and until recently, the only registered church lobby, has charged that the United States is "in close danger of developing the very police state we as a people fear so much." The warning by the Quaker agency on Capitol Hill was made after it revealed that government agencies have been keeping it under surveillance since 1921. The Quaker committee thus far has collected nearly 1,300 pages on itself from government intelligence agencies under the ...

Government intelligence agencies have created and distributed false reports on the Church of Scientology for more than two decades, according to a 20-month study by an investigative panel within the religious group. Citing a documented, 380 page submission to the Church's Board of Directors, the Special Task Force on Religious Defense has charged the government with "malicious interference in the Church's affairs and with violations of its First Amendment rights," according to Kathleen Heard. The materials studied by the task force ...
