CRITICAL - REPOST AND FORWARD TO NEWS MEDIA

THIS IS A CRISIS SITUATION WITH NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL SECURITY IMPLICATIONS

TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SCIENTOLOGY AND THE THREAT IT POSES TO CIVILIZATION, READ THE NEWSGROUP alt."religion".scientology

THE RUMP-"CHURCH" OF SCIENTOLOGY IS THE MOST DANGEROUS AND POWERFUL CULT ORGANIZATION OF THIS CENTURY - IT SEEKS TO SETUP A WORLD DICTATORSHIP WHERE TO BE CONSIDERED A HUMAN BEING ONE MUST BE BRAINWASHED USING THEIR AUDITING - IT MUST BE STOPPED AT ALL COSTS

The following submission to the private Scientology mailing list TNX-L is a real bombshell. We obtained it from our operatives who have tapped into this mailing list through an untraceable route. Several former Cof$ high-level people say this is VERY serious as Scientology has ulterior motives for their activities in Colombia, which will be described shortly.

It all started with the Echavarria family of Colombia, a very powerful ruling family, converting over to Scientology a while back. It has now converted several top-level military and police, and this writing makes it plain that Scientology is attempting a takeover of the entire country's educational and economic infrastructure. The writer of this post is fairly high up in the Cof$ hierarchy and so this is reliable.

What would this mean? Several things. First, Colombia would become the conduit by which Scientology could launder their money free from scrutiny. Second, they would have connections to the lucrative drug trade and would probably double or even triple their world-wide operating budget with clear ramifications for the United States and Europe; they'd be able to up their legal harassment budget as well as step up their illegal harassment by utilizing their new organized crime connection . Third, it would be the first country where Scientology can try their "tech" at a large scale. If you think what happened to Allstate was bad, wait until you see what will happen in Colombia should Cof$ succeed in seizing control. The people of Colombia would suffer badly and live in a psycho-fascist totalitarian state the likes of which have not been seen since World War II. L. Ron Hubbard, who founded Cof$, was a great admirer of Adolf Hitler and organized his rump- "Church" around Gestapo principles.

This must be resisted at all costs, or it will spell big trouble for the International community, for freedom loving people everywhere, and for the people of Colombia.

Dear TNXers, Here's some Scn good news :

(Here is an updated debrief of the activites in Colombia, So America. Since the original report we have started delivery of the BSM to 12,000 high school students, which is in progress at this time. We are delivering to the Military enmasse and to the Police. Many great results have been obtained and further delivery is being planned by these agencies. We have 7 other High Schools, 42 elementary schools, and an entire State's educational system in the country wanting LRH's educational tech. We are also consulting the biggest businesses in the Country as a means of financing the social reform efforts. The debrief is long, but interesting. DW 17 Ap 95)

October 27, 1994

This is a brief history of Scientology activities occurring in Colombia, South America over the past few years and resulting in some impressive recent stats.

HISTORY

Approximately 4 1/2 years ago Protectionism was thrown out of Colombia. The Governments of the past had Protectionism in as a means of controlling the economy. The result of Protectionism was a very high duty- as much as 400% on some products, if you wanted to buy something you had to buy Colombian. The other theory behind this was that it protected the jobs of the workers. It intended to create jobs by making it necessary to produce in the country.

The actual effect was that companies only produced what was necessary for a low level of survival. The cost of products were high in relation to the wage base here. Because of the economic base companies found it hard to produce certain goods. An example is Hoescht, which is the Chemical company. I went to their factory in Cali, and saw equipment which was made back in the 1940s. The product manager told to me that during the Protectionism era they could not get in modern equipment because of the government rules and the cost of the duties. Now with The Opening which brought in competition they have to compete with world wide companies that have modern machines which have a higher quality product. One of the examples that he showed me was the packaging of the goods. It was done by hand. This takes much more time than having a machine do it.

The Opening brought in outside influences. The country needed new ways in which to operate if it was to have a place in the world market. The result was the country had a chance to catch up with the rest of the world in the areas of economics, education and government. This created a "need of change" and a "demand for improvement" and new technology. This created a positive situation for us. This ground work plus our connection to the Echavarria family has opened the door for us. Our purpose is to fill that vacuum created, claiming as much ground as quickly as possible through the introduction of LRH technology to the government, military, police, education and business personnel . As our resources are minimal the most has to be made with the least.

The businesses of Colombia realized that their work force could not "learn" fast enough the new Methodologies that were being introduced. Some attention went on to the quality of the school system. This is a major 'in' for LRH's study tech within the Educational system.

As a result of this background we have been able to secure agreements with high ups in Government, Military, Police, Education and Business for the introduction of LRH tech. During the past administration I had excellent comm lines into the President's office. The President backed us through his P rivate Sec, which he had help us. The Private Sec helped us get appointments with some of the different Ministers.

THE MILITARY.

In 1993 I had a meeting with the Minister of Defense along with Enrique Garces Echavarria. At that meeting I was trying to get the Minister of Defense to back us in doing a WTH campaign there. At that time we gave him copies of POW, TWTH and the WIS book. He felt that at that time he could not have this campaign going because of the problems in the country. During this period of time there were a lot of car bombings going on and the drug lord Pablo Escobar was threatening to blow up the President's house and other government officials. In PT Pablo has since been found and killed, by the Military and the car bombings have stopped.

The new Administration is now in. The New Minister of Defense, Fernando Botero, and I have a good comm line. Fernando was a Senator back in 1993 when Enrique and I talked to him. Fernando loves TWTH and remembered the campaign that was done before. He did have some black PR from the times article, which I handled with him. We gave Fernando a leather copy of TWTH and copies of POW and the WIS book. We are in the process of getting another appointment with him to go over some other idea's and delivery to the Police and Military.

This year while delivering a workshop at INCOLDA (Institute Colombiano de Administracion- the institute which I originally started with, back in 1992) two Military Officers were attending. One was General Gil, he loved the data from POW and the talk on Book One. I offered our services to him and the next week we delivered a similar work shop to his officers at their Base. This was the start of our relationship with the Military. The Military's main function is to handle the guerrilla's, terrorists, bombings, kidnappings' and drug smuggling. The handling of these things has improved over the past few years, but isn't yet under control.

General Gil has received Book One auditing and recently said he felt a leader to be a true Leader must know LRH's data on ARC and Ethics Presence. The Gene ral is being promoted later this year to one of the top administrators in the Military. He wants all of his Officers trained on ARC and Ethics Presence as well as Book One!

We have the General, a Colonel, a Major, 80 other Officers and 140 soldiers who have completed at least one of our workshops and are supportive of LRH's tech, so far. They control an estimated 200,000 troops in the units of: Recruitment, Cavalry, Logistics, Artillery and a Fighting Battalion.

RESOURCES:

The Military has the space to deliver to 40 Officers at one time, but with the Military schools and auditoriums they have space for many more. The cost of the materials have been donated for this project in the past. The General is looking at ways to get this cost covered by the Military. Currently donation's are being solicited for the materials. We have a pack that is pending approval from WISE INT that consists of key issues from WISE materials. We have materials from the SHB to use in a workshop. Combined we can deliver, with current materials, to between 75-100 Military at one time. There are some scheduling problems, but they will work them out. The Military has named us as official Trainers, and Consultants by the issuance of an official Certificate.

We plan to train Officers of the Military in how to deliver the SHB WORKSHOPS to the rest of the military, while we qual it. Set it up so that the training becomes a permanent part of their training program and new recruits are trained each year on LRH's tech.

There are different units in the Military so there will be different training programs. Everybody gets study tech, Components of Understanding, and a Seminar on Dianetics. Depending on their posts, some will do the emotional tone scale, communication, how to resolve conflict, integrity and honesty, ethics and conditions, cause of suppression, tools for the work place, basics of organizing, targets and goals, investigations, fundamentals of public relationships.

MAJOR TARGET:

The Military trained on LRH tech enabling them to achieve the result of a country without insanity (the real enemy), without criminals (Mafia,Druglords) and without war (guerrillas and terrorists), where the able can prosper and honest being can have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights which are the aims of Scientology. To make this goal and target real for the officers and soldiers of the Military.

THE GENERAL

General Gil is receiving his book one Auditing. It's more difficult with him, as each time there is some commotion in the country he has to get involved, but he loves his auditing, and the Auditor reports that he is a very theta guy and is getting great case gain.

THE MAJOR

The Major in the Military got his book one auditing and just loves it. He had to get an operation on his nose for some reason. The auditor gave him some assists after the operation and the nose healed very quick, so much so that the doctor could not believe it. He is very happy with the auditing and can not believe how well it is going. He has been transferred to a new post, as the Commandant for a battalion. He has invited me to the front lines to deliver more of LRH tech to his soldiers. It is in the fields of Colombia where the guerrillas are. We are going to work out some PR for the military between them and the people that live there. The guerrillas have the PR position with the people in the area. We are going to show the Military how to correct up the false data the guerrillas have given the people. I also had an idea ,which he liked, to put LRH's study tech into the schools there. Here we will train some of the soldiers to help deliver the study tech. We will be going to the front lines in a couple of weeks or so to start this.

THE POLICE COMMISSARY & THEIR FINANCIAL SERVICE SECTION.

We've started delivering to 400 policemen , from the Commissary Division, the Motivation and Leadership workshop, which is based on Problems of Work. Miguel, our M.D. staff member, is delivering to them at their place. He's doing them in small groups of 40-50 each and will complete the 400 in the next three weeks.

NATIONAL POLICE

Oct 26th 1994 we received a call from the General in charge of all the Police in Colombia. I met with him and gave him a copy of the WTH. We discussed our program on Motivation and Leadership. He got real interested and ordered in another General who is in charge of training for the Police in whole country. The General briefed him on our activities, and he liked them. We went into the 2nd General's office to work out the logistics. Before going into the second office, we agreed to keep in communication on the various projects, and he is supporting us. I have a free line into him in case I need anything. The General in charge of training and I went over the different programs that could be used with the Police. He was interested in our Motivation and Leadership workshop and called in the Colonel In charge of Academic standards. I spent about 15 minutes getting the comm line in with her. I found out she is basically in charge of the training of the future Officers of the police at their police academies. She went over the Motivational program and the one on Communication and said these were the ones they needed to do.

They both went through the WTH booklet. The General really liked it. The Colonel had questions about it being "religious". When I asked her about it, she said it was similar to the ten commandments. I explained to her that it was specifically designed not to be a "religious" work, that the morals had started to go out with the separation of the "Church" and State. She was more interested in the other 2 programs and wanted to start on this immediately. We are only going to start 345 student police cadets on the 18th of Nov., for 5 full days of POW and Communication (based on SHB) seminar. We will then work out the logs of getting all 6,000 officers in the country through the same training program. We are starting at the top and working our way down the Org board until all 102,000 police are gotten through some basic courses. This is a very rough idea, of course, with these numbers a whole program will have to be mocked up to make sure the goals and purposes are achieved. In fact, the General, told her to work out the funds for this project in next years budget. The funds will help pay for the materials.

(Since the writing of this we have delivered the POW seminar to the Police Academy. They loved it. The Officer in charge is working out how to make it a permanent part of their training program and has asked us to help him with the 450 high schools and colleges he deals with.)

METRO POLICE

Two days ago I closed two Colonels in charge of the 8,000 Metropolitan police on the Communication, PR, and the WTH programs. Because of the logistics we are not starting them all this year. But, we are doing a pilot of 50 starting Nov. 15th. These are the street police. The Colonel in charge of training who I set the program up with started the Motivational and Leadership workshop on 27 Oct. Along with her there were 20 other Officers from the Military doing the same workshop.

EDUCATION

HISTORY

About 50% of the children of Colombia do not get to go to H.S. (6-11th grades- there is no Junior High School in Colombia) because there are not enough school buildings and not enough teachers. The teachers are paid very poorly and many moonlight to make ends meet. A State test called EFAS (we don't know the validity of it) shows the main problem with those children who get through school to have only a 5% ability to duplicate what they read. The students have to buy their own materials, but the can't afford new materials. Instead they buy hand-me-downs and photocopy's. The school system is so poor that they cannot afford hot water for showers after P.E. The upper and "middle" classes send their children to private schools.

The average household income of the families from this area is about $400 a month. The average family has 3.5 children. They don't make enough to be taxed except by 'sales tax' There is not enough tax base to support more education by the present means of taxation. In the USA it is figured to cost $3000 per student per year to educate them. The average household income for the students going to public schools in Colombia in less than $5000 per year. The schools have very few dictionaries or materials for the classes. They provide a desk and a teacher and a piece of chalk, which the teachers hold onto to prevent loss. The teacher with an average of 6 years university education makes about $600 a month after 18 years in the system. The teachers have a very strong union which is trying to improve conditions and wages, but not so much the educational standards. The teaching methodology is psychology based, and is imported from Europe and the US.

There is very little drug problem in the schools, but the older students do dr ink on the weekends. There are no gangs, and violence if any is a very rare occurrence, besides an occasional fight between students. Because of the lack of space in the school, the students line up after elementary school, to apply for admission to the High Schools. Most students want to learn and realize that it is a privilege to be in High School. The schools operate on 2 sessions..morning and afternoon. At Kennedy H.S., the largest in Bogota, they have about 3500 students in the morning, and 3400 in the afternoon. The drop out rate is approximately 50%. The Principal states the reason for this is financial and family problems at home (we know different). The children find it necessary to enter the work force to help support themselves and their families.

About 2 years ago, while doing a safe pointing project with the WIS book, and meeting with the different Ministers of Colombia, we had a conversation with the then Minister of Education. We brought him copies of WIS, the BSM, POW and the WTH. He showed some interest in the BSM and referred us to the terminal who was responsible for implementing new programs in the school system. A proposal was done up for a pilot program to deliver to 150 teachers and administrative personnel in the Dept. of Education. Because of administrative red tape, and even thou the program was approved, the actual starting never occurred. The original Minister of Education resigned as he was running for another office. The terminal we were working with was transferred, and the new terminal was very busy with the new Minister of Education. With our comm line to the Presidents office, and with his authorization, his private sec'y arranged for an appointment with a new terminal within the Ministry of Education. We met with him and asked how to get the program in. He recommended bypassing the Ministry and Sec'y of Education and go right to the schools. He gave us a list of all the schools in Colombia.

One person was put on phoning the schools. He immediately got 12 schools interested. Promoting was stopped as we were exceeding the delivery capacity. The first school approached in person was Kennedy H.S. I brought the BSM and the POW and gave it to the Principal. I did the Dissem formula on him. He said, "This is what we need . Lets start it out in the Spanish dept." He brought in the Director of the Spanish Dept. and explained to him that we were going to educate all the Spanish teachers (39) and they in turn would educate the children. We started with these 39 teachers. We had major scheduling problems because of their work loads. There was some disagreement with the program. I went in and talked to the teachers individually and also sent Jackie De Lorenzo to talk to the teachers. She's bilingual. The basic found was the Director of the Spanish Dept., did not give them a proper R-factor on what we were doing or why, and there was a general dislike of the Director by the teachers. With the findings I talked to the Principal of the school. He was new at the school and hadn't realized the problems with the Spanish Dir. He personally took over the Program with the result that the teachers got more respect for it.

Part of the debug , due to the teachers lack of time, was to directly deliver to the students while the teachers were finishing their BSMs. I then realized that with the number of students, this school has 6980, we lacked enough terminals for delivery. I found out that 11th graders are required to put in 80 hours a year in social programs. I asked the Director if there was anyway we could train some of these students to help us with the delivery at Kennedy and at the Elementary schools. He said "yes" and gave us 160 students in the morning and another 160 in the afternoon. These students are in the 10th grade. This will enable us to train them up for delivery next year, when they are in the 11th grade. So we have 320 students for 1.5 years, who will be part time staff in this social reform program. In January 1995 we get another 320 10th graders, so we will have a continuing supply of staff to deliver LRH's tech into the different areas of Bogota. The principal has taken the extraordinary step of making sure the students who are on this pjt are not separated and not put onto other pjts without his approval, so this pjt does not get unmocked.

In PT we have 40 students who are on the "TTC" and we are working out space to get the other 260 in and started. The 60 students are nearing completion of the BSM and will be going onto the SHB courses. The students are all up tone, have done a complete line of tests, and are there on their own determinism. We still haven't worked out the best utilization of the kids. One idea is to put the study and communication tech into the Elementary schools, and some will put study and communication tech into 6th through 8th grades in the different schools. They lack the altitude and ethics presence to deliver workshops to their peers. Another pjt will be to have them help in a different organization called ICBF (Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar). This Institute is basically an organization working to help the family and is oriented towards small children. One of its major programs is a pre-school system which is run out of homes in different sections of the com munity for working mothers to put their children. This was the previous First Ladies idea. She wanted our help in training these mothers. The present time idea is to put in the assist and basic Child Dianetics tech with the pre-school mothers. But as we find out more of what is needed and wanted this could change.

We started approximately 1800 of the Kennedy H.S. on the BSM workshop. More teachers in different Dept's have gotten interested in our help and have asked for help in debugging their students in different areas. Some of these teachers also teach at other schools, and have requested we go into those schools as well. This represents 15,000 additional students. With all the schools interested we have approximately 40,000 students. The Principal of Kennedy after seeing the results of this years program wants to have it implemented in all the schools in Colombia. He wants to be able to show the Principal's at their annual conference next year, the results from this program. He is an opinion leader in the system as the Principal of the largest school in Colombia, and , quite possibly, in South America.

We have closed two High Schools in Bogota on delivering the Basic Study Manual to their students. The first of the two is Kennedy High with 6890 students. The other is Tunal High with 5000 students. That is a total of 11,980 students that are in the process of starting. At Tunal High we do not have the agreement to use the students as assistants, so we will use Kennedy's to help us with the delivery at Tunal , by using them to grade exercises over the mid-year holiday, which runs from 4 Nov. To 4 Feb..

At Kennedy the teachers return 2 weeks earlier than their students so that they can receive training. This year we will be training all of them on the BSM at that time. This has the full backing and support of the Principal, who himself has done a couple of LRH's courses and loves the tech. He knows the program can't work if the teachers don't understand and apply the 'methodology' standardly throughout the school.

What we are proposing to these different area's (Education, Military and Police) is that we set up their training units. Which will in turn help us with their on going training. Even doing it at that rate we have 300 teachers to train in 2 weeks in Jan 95, for Kennedy H.S. alone. Doing this in a workshop still requires that we have about 10 trained Sups who are, handling the teachers exclusively. We've got our hands full on this one.

The Principal of Kennedy High has asked for our help with a project that has been dumped on him by the gov't. As I mentioned to you before, only 50% of the children graduating from Elementary school enter High School. This is due to lack of teachers. The real reasons for this in the future will have to be looked at so it can actually be debugged, but in the meantime Congress has passed a law in which the Elementary Schools will now teach 1st through 9th grades, instead of 1st through 5th. This is 2 years short of the normal high school program. The think behind this is that a basic education can be done within this time.

The Principal at Kennedy has been assigned the project of overseeing and guiding 42 Elementary schools in his vicinity with this new program. He has no idea how this is going to work, for the gov't has given no additional supplies, teachers or money for this. So, one of the bright ideas to handle this on a cope basis is to take all the 10th and 11th graders and train them on the BSM, the Communication Course, and have them help in the Elementary Schools during their 80 hours of community service in the 11th grade. The Principal also realized that the earlier the children learn how to learn or get LRH's study tech in, the less problems and the better the education they will receive down the line. The school system is now in its last couple weeks before its 3 month break and the Principal is PTP'd with getting everything ready for the end of the semester. We are going to meet sometime during the break, and I will get more data to handle this little project he has. The 42 schools have an estimated 67,000 students. We well get more reliable data when I meet with him again.

So as you can see we have a real logs and delivery situation to work out in the very near future. It is kind of a relief that we have 3 months before the new school year, so we can regroup the troops. This Principal is a very theta being and easy to work with because he is willing and has not put any CI on the lines as far as getting the tech in. We are working with him on doing a PR campaign and our student assistants will be doing surveys on the students. And he is going to have us do surveys on the teachers so the tech is more easily acceptable and more importantly applied in the course room.

Some of the teachers also come to study , along with the students, on their time off . Three of the teachers have commented that they can't believe these are the same students for they are really studying, learning and applying the material they are reading . They are very well behaved. One couldn't believe that when a group of 5 arrived late, the supervisor had them clean windows, and they didn't even argue about it. She went on for about 15 minutes about how much change had occurred in them in such a short period of time, and she wanted the secret data on how this could occur in her course room. This same teacher is now bringing her own two children in to do the BSM and the Communication section out of the Handbook. Today, we had a teacher drive from a city outside of Bogota, which takes about 2.5 hours, to ask us if she could work with us full time, delivering Ron's tech, and is willing to leave her position in the school she is at now. So, the results are showing and increasing every week with the tech going in.
