Riverside County: la scientologie perd son procès contre Marc Bunker, the White Beard Man

Mark Bunker est un journaliste bien connu: il n'a cessé de suivre les manifestations des Anonymous depuis 1999.Il a déjà été plaqué au sol par la police lors de sa présence au côté des manifestants. Il était poursuivi pour soi-disant violation d'une propriété scientologue à Hemet, Californie.

Le procureur de Riverside County a estimé qu'il n'y avait aucune preuve et il a classé la plainte des scientologues. La scientologie reprochait à Marc Bunker quelque chose comme: "il a marché sur nos plate-bandes qui longent la route publique à côté de notre propriété" ...

Une fois de plus nous avons là un indice que la scientologie instrumentalise la justice pour décourager ses adversaires. N'oublions pas en effet que pour se défendre les victimes ont quasiment à chaque fois des frais à leur charge.

Aucunement inquiétée par nos autorités la scientologie a encore de beaux jours devant elle.

Riverside County district: Charges will not be filed in Scientology protest
http://blogs.pe.com/news/digest/2009/04/charges-will-not-be-filed-in-s.html - April 24, 2009
[Texte intégral]

Posted by: PE News

The Riverside County district attorney's office will not pursue criminal charges against two protesters cited for trespassing at the Scientology compound outside San Jacinto.

Prosecutors said there was insufficient evidence to file charges after Mark Bunker and Douglas Owens were arrested and released Feb. 24 for blocking the driveway of Golden Era Studios on Gilman Springs Road.

The two men were part of a small protest that formed after the Riverside County Board of Supervisors proposed a no picketing ordinance prohibiting protestors from within 30 feet of any residences.

Comment by Max Champion on April 24, 2009:

This is great news. You got one important fact wrong, however. The protest didn't form in response to Ordinance 884, Ordinance 884 was proposed IN RESPONSE TO THE PROTESTS!

If you watch the video footage of the meeting at which Jeff Stone introduced the ordinance, he waves around a defamatory booklet given to him by Scientology and says that things posted anonymously on the internet were posted by the protesters (because they call themselves "Anonymous"). By that logic, the protesters are responsible for every anonymous donation too. Nice work, Jeff.

By the way, you have to watch the video to see the booklet because Jeff Stone neglected to have it entered into the official record. Tsk. Tsk. Or you can see it in Nathan Baca's interview with Scientology PR guy, Tommy Davis. Davis admits that Scientology produced it.

Comment by Mary McConnell on April 25, 2009:

That was a terrible set up by the church of scientology, to presss citizen's arrest charges against the two. "Mark Bunker is an Emmy Award-winning television journalist. He is a critic of the Church of Scientology and founder of the website Xenu TV."

Mark Bunker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

He's also known worldwide as White Beard Man (WMB):

    [..] In 2008, Marrc Bunker posted a video to YouTube critical of the Internet-based group "Anonymous" and asked them to tone down their campaign against the Church of Scientology; a movement called "Project Chanology". In the video "Message to Anonymous", Bunker urged the group to work legally and pursue peaceful ways to protest Scientology. [..]

    [..] According to NPR's Morning Edition, Bunker has "become a revered voice to many members of Anonymous", and they refer to him as "Wise Beard Man". Anonymous has adopted a slogan referring to Bunker: "Wise Beard Man is Wise. His words are wise, his face is beard." The refrain along with a picture of Bunker has become an Internet meme on the website 4chan. [..]

    [..] When actor Jason Beghe decided to leave Scientology in 2008, he contacted Andreas Heldal-Lund, founder of Operation Clambake, who convinced him to meet with Bunker. Heldal-Lund and Bunker went to Beghe's house, where Beghe participated in an interview about his experiences as a Scientologist. Bunker published a 3-minute portion of the 3-hour interview to YouTube in mid-April 2008, and in the video Beghe calls Scientology "very dangerous for your spiritual, psychological, mental, emotional health and evolution". He also comments "I don't have an agenda. I'm just trying to help. I have the luxury of having gotten into Scientology and after having been in it, been out. And that's a perspective that people who are still in and not out do not have." [..]

Scientology picked on the wrong people. I hope both sue the church for all they went through because of this.

In the shadow of the conflict between Scientology and "Anonymous," we go inside Scientology's Hollywood complex for the first part of an exclusive one-on-one interview with one of the church's top leaders, Tommy Davis.

Davis serves as the Church's spokesman. During the visit, we showed him video shot by members of "Anonymous" as they were being accosted and arrested by guards hired by the Church at the Scientology grounds in Hemet. Davis contends that the protestors arrested assaulted the guards.

Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis gave reaction on the video
of a "citizen arrest" by security guards on protestors
who were on Scientology grounds in Hemet.
 

Transcript from the interview:

Nathan Baca: How is Anonymous a clear and present danger ?

Tommy Davis: Really, it does boil down to hate crimes and a religious hate group that is really intending to bring about harm and bigotry and upset as much as possible to individual members of a church and a religious organization.

NB: Supervisor Stone read this booklet. He gave it to me. "Anonymous: Who They Are, What They Do." This is, I believe, you were mentioning, this is from the Church of Scientology. Was this produced by the Church of Scientology ?

TD: This is a publication that was put together by a group of individuals that work with the Church and also work with other groups, human rights organizations, and other religions.

NB: But it has no byline. It has nothing-- "written by" or "funded by." That's just kind of a puzzle to us about this book. It became exhibit one in this sense with the supervisors. The main exhibit that convinced Jeff Stone that he used to convince the other supervisors that this is a hate group, "listen to this" and there was a very powerful presentation, but we just didn't know who it was by because there is no byline. That's why we were kind of puzzled by it.

TD: Ok. I just told you that the Church is absolutely involved in putting that together and it was a compilation of information that's easily locatable on the internet. If you want to know, really, if you want to know who that booklet is by, it's by the people who produce the hate and those people are members of Anonymous.

NB: Why is a camoflauged observation post needed in the hills above Golden Era (a movie production studio) ?

TD: Well, that's no secret. Those are digital cameras and they used to be able to sweep the entire property for security purposes. I don't know if someone's trying to give you the idea that's some sort of secret or there's something nefarious about it.

NB: No. I'm just curious about it. It's a camoflauged observation post with telescopic lens. It's not something you see everywhere.

TD: Sure. No problem. You also wouldn't want to mar the landscape of a hillside either.

** Violent confrontation video plays **

NB: Tell me what happened with the security guard. Was he bitten?

TD: Yeah.

NB: Ok. When was he bitten?

TD: In that incident.

NB: Was he bitten before or after? Was he bitten as he was taken into custody? When exactly in the timeline was he bitten ?

TD: When he was making a citizen's arrest of that individual you saw there on the ground.

NB: Was it while he was on the ground ?

TD: I don't know at what point. But it's a subject of-- obviously, that individual who was arrested has been charged. What you saw there was a citizen's arrest.

NB: But why not just call the Sheriff's Department. At most, it's misdemeanor trespassing. Why not just call the Sheriff's Department? They arrived just a minute later or so.

TD: Sure.

NB: Why tackle him down?

TD: To my knowledge, they had already been called.

NB: A woman was walking up and the guard does a back side sweep and nearly trips the woman...

TD: ...And then she kicks him.

NB: I don't quite see that.

TD: Anyway.

NB: I'm just wondering.

TD: In all honesty, Nathan, this is something that is a matter for law enforcement.

NB: The spikes facing inward. Why are the spikes facing inward?

TD: that's just how they were installed.

 

Scientology protests prompt new Riverside County law

By David Kelly

http://www.latimes.com - March 3, 2009
[Texte intégral]

The Riverside County Board of Supervisors today tightened limits on how protesters targeting
a Church of Scientology compound near Hemet can conduct demonstrations.

The measure requires anyone protesting near private residences to remain at least 30 feet from the property line. Critics contend it violates free speech.

Reporting from Riverside -- Protesters targeting a Church of Scientology compound near Hemet now face stricter limits on how they can conduct demonstrations, according to a new ordinance adopted Tuesday by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors.

The measure, which critics say violates the 1st Amendment and gives the church special treatment, requires anyone protesting near private residences to stay at least 30 feet from the property line.

Graham Berry, a lawyer and one of the protesters, told the board that the ordinance "does not pass constitutional muster."

"It is vague, ambiguous and unenforceable," he said.

The ordinance, which applies to all unincorporated county areas, was proposed by Supervisor Jeff Stone last November in reaction to what he said were trespassing and threats of violence by opponents of Scientology at the Gilman Hot Springs location.

Small groups of demonstrators often gather outside the gates of Golden Era Productions, which produces movies and CDs for the Church of Scientology, to protest what they say is an abusive religious cult. The compound is home to roughly 500 church employees. When protesters show up, church officials usually call the authorities.

"A good ordinance should be clear and consistent and have a compelling interest behind its passage," said Supervisor Bob Buster, the only one to vote against it. "Eventually you will spend a lot of money in court to determine what it means, and it will cause more strife than it solves."

Critics accused Stone of letting the church's lawyer write the ordinance. Attorney Sam Alhadeff, who represents the Scientologists, denied that, saying he submitted similar ordinances from other counties to Riverside County Counsel Pamela Walls so she could see how they were written.

"I don't find that out of bounds," he said.

Supervisor Roy Wilson asked for a Sheriff's Department report in six months stating how many arrests were made due to the ordinance.

Berry said his group will continue its protests.

In January, Riverside County supervisors had passed a similar protest ordinance, but it was temporarily suspended for revisions.

 

Deux manifestants arrêtés à Hemet pour intrusion (trespassing)!

Le comté de Riverside, en Californie, veut adopter un nouveau règlement concernant les manifestations. Or, à Hemet, se trouve le quartier général de la scientologie, dans un complexe qui réunit notamment des bâtiments administratifs, les studios Golden Era et vraisemblablement un RPF.

Bien qu'aujourd'hui le comté affirme avec vigueur que le règlement n'a rien à voir avec la scientologie, le superviseur qui a l'introduit a justifié à l'origine son geste en présentant un dossier sur Anonymous - un mouvement de protestation contre la scientologie - sous le pire angle possible et en utilisant des documents utilisés dans d'autres situations par la scientologie elle-même.

Le comté nie également toute implication de la scientologie dans l'élaboration de ce règlement, alors même que son avocat a déclaré publiquement en avoir discuté avec la juriste du comté.

Le jour même de la discussion de ce sujet en séance, des critiques de la scientologie ont manifesté une nouvelle fois devant Hemet.

A la demande de deux scientologues de haut rang - notamment Tommy Davis, porte-parole officiel de la scientologie - deux critiques ont été arrêtés pour intrusion (trespassing), mais pas incarcérés, dont Mark Bunker, un réalisateur primé et responsable du site xenutv.net.

Le contexte particulier du site - une route officielle traversant le complexe et laissant peu de place aux manifestants - rend l'analyse de la situation fort compliquée. Récemment, un autre critique a été violemment interpellé par les gardes privés de la scientologie au bord de cette route.

A short interview with John Duignan

Surprisingly the Independent say in a footnote the book is available direct from them, which means of course that as every other books distributor in the UK sincerely believes they WILL be sued. Also surprisingly, they fail to mention that they are the only UK distributors.


First person: I escaped Scientology after 22 years

John Duignan, 45 - Interview by Charlotte Philby

http://www.independent.co.uk - 21 February 2009
[Texte intégral]

Duigan says: "After two weeks, L Ron Hubbard had becomemy guru.
I soon lost contact with family and friends"

Mine was an uneasy childhood. My father was schizophrenic and had bouts of manic depression. He and my mother both died when I was 10 years old, and my siblings and I moved from Scotland to Ireland, to live with my mother’s relatives.

As a teenager, I started to find the idea of an all-encompassing God and protector alluring, and in 1984, moved to a small village in Germany. Here, I discovered Scientology. I was in a bad way one afternoon, walking the streets of Stuttgart, when a young lady approached me: “Do you have a good memory?” she asked. I agreed to join her at the local Scientology centre, to find out.

The centre was filled with friendly, efficient people. It all seemed very official and scientific. I took tests which revealed I needed counselling, or “auditing”. I found the “science” aspect very seductive, and quickly became involved in the group.

After two weeks, I was taken with the teachings of [Scientology’s founder] L Ron Hubbard. He was my guru, and I started to see less of my girlfriend and friends.

I worked for the Scientologists from 9am to 11pm, for the equivalent of £15 per week. Within months of that first meeting, I was recruited to the Sea Organisation – a central management group within the association. My work for them included administration and PR.

I lived in a commune in Los Angeles with the Sea Org for a while. It was a highly disciplined, enclosed environment. We were self-sufficient: building our own computers, growing our own food – we had very little contact with the outside world. I was transferred all over the world, and in 2000 was living in Dorset when I made a discovery.

Scientology works on a strictly hierarchical basis. All through my membership, I was told there was a revelation I was being built up to, Hubbard’s theory of creation. When I became privy to the details of the story, I was shocked that this was the carrot on a stick that had kept me with the organisation for so long. His ideas seemed ludicrous, and when I stumbled upon other details of Hubbard’s biography, I was appalled.

It took five more years to gather the courage to leave. For two decades this had been my life. I had no skills, no cultural references; I’d become institutionalised. In 2005, I made my escape in the middle of the night. Facing the outside world was terrifying. But slowly, I began to rebuild my life. I went back to Ireland and got to grips with the basics: how to cook and shop. Now I have a wonderful partner, I’m enrolled at university, and I’m learning to be a human for the first time ever. It’s like having a new lease of life.

Two protesters arrested, cited outside Church of Scientology compound

The Press-Enterprise

Two protesters were arrested on suspicion of blocking the driveway to the Church of Scientology's compound near Hemet during a small demonstration following Riverside County's board of supervisors meeting Tuesday.

Sheriff's deputies arrested Mark Bunker and Douglas Owens shortly before 2 p.m., releasing them later with citations for trespassing, said Lt. Patricia Knudson. They did so after church members made citizens' arrests, she said.

Knudson said church members and deputies observed protesters blocking the entrance to the large compound along Gilman Springs Road in Gilman Hot Springs. But protesters say they were neither trespassing nor blocking the entryway.

The arrests followed a supervisors meeting in Riverside in which protesters and church members debated a proposed anti-picketing ordinance that the church supports. The proposed ordinance would ban pickets within 30 feet of any targeted residences, including dormitories at the Scientology compound.

Demonstrators say they are protesting because the church abuses members at the base, charges the church says are lies.

Bunker said five protesters walked in front of the property, crossing the driveway at times, which the law permits, he said. Deputies parked their car in the driveway of the Scientology base and arrested Owens, he said. Bunker said when he then photographed deputies, they arrested him.

Mom sues Church of Scientology in son's death

By Jonathan Abel, Times Staff Writer

http://www.tampabay.com/news/article976561.ece - February 17, 2009
[Texte intégral]

CLEARWATER — A mother has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the Church of Scientology, its Flag Service Organization and three parishioners, claiming they brought about her son's death by denying him access to his antidepression medication.

Among the three parishioners named as defendants: Denise Gentile, the twin sister of the church's current worldwide leader, David Miscavige, as well as her husband, Gerald Gentile.

The lawsuit stems from the death of Kyle T. Brennan, 20, who shot himself in the head on Feb. 16, 2007, in Clearwater, while visiting his father, who is a Scientologist.

Police determined the death was a suicide, but Victoria Britton, the young man's mother, said Scientologists are responsible.

Filed in Tampa federal court Friday, the lawsuit claims Gentile and her husband persuaded Kyle Brennan's father to take away his Lexapro, which his son was taking for depression and anxiety.

The suit, which also names Thomas Brennan as a defendant, states that the defendants tried to put Kyle Brennan into a Narconon drug treatment program.

Kyle Brennan was not a Scientologist, the suit states.

The suit is being brought by attorney Ken Dandar, well-known for his extended legal battle against Scientology during the Lisa McPherson case. McPherson, a 36-year-old Scientologist, died in 1995 while in the care of church staffers in Clearwater.

Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis said the lawsuit is an attempt to "draw the church into something that we don't have anything to do with."

None of the Scientologists named as defendants were church staff members, he said. They were all just parishioners. And Davis emphasized that the events took place on private property without church involvement.

Even Narconon, the drug treatment program that uses L. Ron Hubbard's teachings, is a separate entity from the Church of Scientology, he said.

Still, the case draws attention to Scientology's opposition to psychiatric drugs like Lexapro, which it deems to be mind-altering.

The Web site for Lexapro warns users not to go off their medication suddenly, even if they are feeling better. Changes in dosage, it says, can cause patients on antidepressants to worsen their depression, show signs of mood changes and exhibit thoughts of suicide.

Before his death, Kyle Brennan lived at home in Charlottesville, Va., where he was attending college, Dandar said. He was in the second year of a liberal arts degree when he left school and traveled around the country, Dandar said.

Kyle Brennan made a number of stops, going as far west as Hawaii, but in February 2007 he found his way to Clearwater, to stay with his father, whom he hadn't seen since the summer before.

Dandar said Kyle was taking a 10 mg dose of Lexapro, which he descried as "moderate." It was prescribed for him in early 2006 to help him with depression and anxiety.

He continued to use the drug while staying in his dad's two-bedroom apartment at 423 Cleveland St. in Clearwater, Dandar said.

But a week into the stay, Denise Gentile and her husband prevailed upon Kyle's father to take away the Lexapro medication and lock it in his truck, the lawsuit alleges.

While Scientology spokesman Davis said Denise Gentile was not in any authority position at the church, the suit alleges she had the title of "chaplain" and was held up as an authority of sorts on helping families with emotional matters.

The Gentiles and Brennan also phoned Britton, the young man's mother, to try to persuade her to put Kyle in Narconon, the lawsuit states.

The mother, who is not a Scientologist, was adamant that she and her son did not want anything to do with the drug treatment, the lawsuit states. She insisted that her son be put back on Lexapro.

The medication remained locked away, the suit states.

On Feb. 16, 2007, just after 11 p.m., Kyle Brennan shot himself with a loaded .357 Magnum that he found in his father's apartment, the lawsuit states.

His father found him dead, his head slumped in a laundry basket.

The lawsuit said it is unclear how he got ahold of the gun, but it blames "one or more of the Defendants."

"They locked up his medicine, but not the loaded .357 Magnum. That's the story line," Dandar said. "I think that's the case."

Thomas Brennan did not return a phone call left on his voice mail. Neither Denise nor Gerald Gentile could be reached for comment.

Times researcher Will Gorham contributed to this report.

 

Le taux d’échec en scientologie est considérable

En 59 ans d’existence, quelques 3 ou 4 millions de personnes ont acheté des cours ou des heures de thérapie de scientologie. Il en reste probablement 40 ou 50'000 qui sont encore actifs.

Le taux d’échec de la plus grande découverte de l’homme depuis celle de la roue, comme l’a dit Hubbard, est donc d’au moins 98-99%.

Nouvelle évidence de la parano scientologue

Si la scientologie a réussi à obtenir une mauvaise réputation à peu près partout où elle s’est installée ce n’est pas par hasard: c’est le groupe le plus secret et le plus espionnant qu’on puisse imaginer. Un récent article signale que la scientologie construit en ce moment un quatrième souterrain blindé dans le désert pour entreposer ses documents.

Que veut-donc enfouir ainsi la scientologie et que va-t-elle faire avec tous ces dossiers qu'elle accumule sur ses patients et opposants ?

Cela nous étonnerait aucunement que la scientologie utilise certaines confessions pour faire du chantage.

La scientologie est de plus en plus chère

Les membres de la scientologie dans les années 50-60 pouvaient acheter plusieurs dizaines d’heures de "services" pour quelques centaines francs alors que les membres actuels doivent dépenser plusieurs milliers d’euros ! N'est-ce pas un indice de ses difficultés financières actuelles ?

En augmentant constamment ses prix la scientologie donne une valeur factice à ses cours et utilise cette technique pour mieux happer ses clients.

Mysterious Scientology Project Raises Questions in Wyoming

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,490844,00.html - February 11, 2009
Associated Press
[Texte intégral]

SWEENEY CANYON, Wyo. —  The construction began last summer, stirring up dust that wafted down this desert valley and into a small community of off-the-grid homes.

As many as 20 heavy trucks a day hauling construction materials and equipment rumbled down the valley's main gravel road, passing into a gate marked with a "No Trespassing" sign. Helicopters flew in sling loads of cargo. Powerful work lights lit up the valley at night.

Public planners in southwest Wyoming's Sweetwater County — a sagebrush expanse roughly the size of Massachusetts — say the contractor hired for the project has told them it intends to build a 22,000-square-foot underground storage vault to store documents.

Whose documents exactly? Apparently, the writings of the late L. Ron Hubbard, the Church of Scientology's founder, and other church records.

But plans remain vague. County land use planner John Barton said the county also has been told the vault might hold any number of things besides documents.

"We've had everything from underground housing of sheep or hay," Barton said. "We've had cemetery discussed. We've had mining discussed."

The contractor, International Ground Support Systems of Santa Fe, N.M., also has said it plans to build a 3,500-square-foot caretaker house and an airstrip, county officials say. But they allege that IGSS has failed to apply for two required permits for work done so far.

The mysterious project has riled some neighbors, who value the solitude of their remote community, located about 150 miles east of Salt Lake City.

"I don't care if it's Church of Scientology, the Roman Catholic Church or, you know, Kraft Foods," Barton said. "We have development activity occurring — has occurred and, rumor has it, continues to occur — without required permits."

A local attorney representing IGSS, Robert Reese, said the earthwork already done is similar to improvements that would be made at any ranch. He said that's consistent with the site's agricultural zoning and past use as a cattle ranch. Therefore, he said, the contractor hasn't needed to get a permit.

"Our position is that everything that has been done so far falls well within the agricultural use and no permit is required," Reese said.

IGSS has a majority ownership stake in the 3,500-acre property along with a handful of locals who otherwise don't appear to be directly involved in the project, according to county officials.

Neither the Los Angeles-based Church of Scientology — a roughly 50-year-old religion noted for its unconventional beliefs and celebrity followers — nor IGSS officials returned several phone messages seeking more information about the project.

However, an entity called the Church of Spiritual Technology has been known to build underground vaults to store Scientology documents, including near Petrolia, Calif., and Trementina, N.M. According to records from Humbolt County, Calif., IGSS received a permit in 1990 to build the Petrolia vault for the Church of Spiritual Technology, which is based in Los Angeles.

The Church of Spiritual Technology doesn't have a listed phone number.

The Church of Spiritual Technology and the Church of Scientology are linked, according to Larry Brennan, of Bow, N.H., a former Scientologist who now writes a blog about the religion.

The Church of Spiritual Technology holds Scientology's copyrights and trademarks and stores church documents in underground vaults to preserve the religion in case of nuclear war, he said.

The developer's lack of permits prompted the county to issue a stop-work order in September. When work didn't stop, the planners referred the matter to County Attorney Brett Johnson, who said he's contemplating legal action if work continues without a permit.

"There's been a lot of earth moved. It's quite clear that they're preparing to do a lot more work and we just want them to come in and get the proper permits," Johnson said.

John Ledford lives in a solar-powered home within sight of the construction zone. He said the project has stirred up considerable dust and he worries that the construction could cause his water well to run dry.

"They've ruined the road, and we live with the fact that the road has gotten ruined. But the air and the water? It's just not right," Ledford said.

IGSS attorney Reese said that far from doing harm, the company has improved the property.

"They're doing nothing but agricultural work out there in the last couple of months," Reese said. "They've got grazing permits, cattle are being raised, they were cleaning stream beds, fixing up the property, getting a lot of trash out there. It's much nicer than it was."

Beau beau beau et Tom à la fois

«Je n’avais pas réalisé que des millions de personnes avaient été exterminées dans les camps de concentration. (...) Mais nombre de gens m’ont confié avoir découvert, grâce à ce film, des choses qu’ils ignoraient totalement.

Quant à mes enfants, au fur et à mesure que je tournais, je leur apprenais l’Histoire.» Beau numéro d’acteur, Tom: dans le même paragraphe d’un entretien à Paris Match, reconnaître que l’on peut être né il y a 46 ans en Occident sans jamais tomber sur l’information que 7 millions de Juifs ont été assassinés entre 1939 et 1945, en déduire que si l’on ne savait pas, la majorité du reste de l’univers non plus, et se faire aussitôt le héraut de cette vérité enfin révélée... Quel sommet de passe-passe narcissique! Quelle façon extraordinaire de s’excuser d’être bête! Lorsque Tom Cruise apprendra que l’Amérique a exterminé les Indiens, qu’est-ce qu’il nous fera? Le dernier des Mohicans? Quand il apprendra qu’Abraham Lincoln a été assassiné, tournera-t-il Obama, le retour?

Walkyrie a coûté 100 millions de dollars: ça fait cher la leçon d’histoire.

Que Tom ne connaisse rien au passé, passe encore. Mais que ce producteur influent ne s’intéresse pas au cinéma, ça passe mal: il aurait appris des choses s’il avait vu La liste de Schindler, 7 oscars, Le pianiste, 3 oscars ou La vie est belle, idem. Mais Tom ne doit pas aimer les films qui ne parlent pas de lui. Ou alors, il nous a caché que sa secte ne s’appelle pas scientologie mais catholicisme.

Tom Cruise est une quiche en histoire géo

http://www.staragora.com - 06 Feb 2009
[Texte intégral]

Tom Cruise est actuellement au Brésil pour la promo du film Valkyrie avec sa femme Katie Holmes et leur fille Surie (Tom Cruise et katie Holmes s'offrent des vacances au Brésil).

Dans le film, il joue un militaire qui a pour mission d'assassiner Hitler. S'agissant d'un film relatant un des moments les plus importants de l'Histoire du siècle passé, il aurait pu réviser un peu ses cours d'histoire géo et accessoi- rement se renseigner un minimum sur le pays où il se rendait.

En effet, en pleine promo, Tom Cruise s'est mis à s'exprimer en espagnol à ses interlocuteurs lors de la conférence de presse, leur servant du "hola" et du "gracias" à tour de bras.

Seulement voilà, même si le Brésil est un pays d'Amérique Latine, les brésiliens parle portuguais et non espagnol. Le pays a en effet été colonisé par le Portugal au XVIe siècle.

Et pour enfoncer le clou, Tom Cruise a fini de se ridiculiser en ajoutant qu'il est tombé amoureux de Brésil en regardant des films sur la samba et le tango.

Nouvelle erreur de taille puisque le tango est une danse argentine, et pas du tout brésilienne. A vouloir jouer les érudit, il est passé pour un parfait abruti.

D'où l'adage bien connu des ignorants, la culture c'est comme la confiture, moins t'en a plus tu l'étales.

Sacré Tom Cruise, il aurait pu tout aussi bien parler scientologie avec l'audience en leur disant que leurs amis espagnols avaient déjà sauté le pas.

Sachant que le Brésil est un pays profondément catholique, il aurait ainsi pu finir en beauté.


Le héros de Valkyrie n’en mène pas large à Rio de Janeiro
devant les fans et les journalistes

[Texte intégral]

L’histoire géo n’est pas le fort de Tom Cruise. Actuellement en tournée au Brésil pour la promotion du film "Valkyrie", dont le théâtre se situe à un moment important de l’histoire du XXème siècle, Tom Cruise n’a même pas pris la peine de se renseigner un minimum sur ce pays. A la stupéfaction ont succédé les fous rires.

Pour la conférence de presse, l’acteur avait décidé en bon seigneur de s’exprimer en partie dans la langue locale devant les journalistes. C’est tout à son honneur. Voilà donc que le héros de Top Gun lance jovialement des « hola » et conclut à tour de bras par des « gracias ». Pas de chance. Le Brésil est situé en Amérique latine, certes, mais sa langue officielle est le portugais, le Portugal ayant colonisé le pays au XVIème siècle.

Décider à charmer son auditoire, le mari de Katie Holmes complète le tableau en ajoutant qu’il est tombé amoureux du Brésil en savourant des films sur le tango et la samba. Une erreur de taille puisque le tango est une danse argentine et en rien brésilienne. Cela partait d’un bon sentiment, mais Tom Cruise, en jouant les érudits, est passé pour un parfait abruti.

Pauvre Tom. Il aurait tout aussi bien pu discuter de scientologie, en expliquant que l’Espagne tient le haut du tableau, ou alors, au vu de la nature de son dernier film où il campe un nazi borgne, de rendre hommage à « Ces garçons qui venaient du Brésil », ce film où des clones d’Adolf Hitler voient le jour dans un hôpital clandestin brésilien sous le contrôle de Josef Mengele.

"There are only two answers for the handling of people from 2.0 down on the Tone Scale, neither one of which has anything to do with reasoning with them or listening to their justification of their acts.

"Now, get this as a technical fact, not a hopeful idea. Every time we have investigated the background of a critic of Scientology, we have found crimes for which that person or group could be imprisoned under existing law. We do not find critics of Scientology who do not have criminal pasts."

- L. Ron Hubbard, Hubbard Communications Office Bulletin, 5 November 1967, "Critics of Scientology"

Don't ever tamely submit to an investigation of us. Make it rough, rough on attackers all the way."

["Run a case" = administer Dianetics or Scientology procedures to someone]


"Of all the ills of man which can be successfully processed by Scientology, arthritis ranks near the top. In skilled hands, this ailment, though misunderstood and dreaded in the past, already has begun to become history. Twenty-five hours of Scientology by an auditor who fairly understands how to process arthritis can be said to produce an invariable alleviation of the condition. Some cases, even severe ones, have responded in as little as two hours of processing, according to reports from auditors in the field."

"When somebody enrols, consider he or she has joined up for the duration of the universe - never permit an 'open-minded' approach... If they enrolled, 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. Never let them be half minded about being Scientologists... When Mrs. Pattycake comes to us to be taught, turn that wandering doubt in her eye into a fixed, dedicated glare' The proper instruction attitude is, 'We'd rather have you dead than incapable.'"

"Advanced Courses [in Scientology] are the most valuable service on the planet. Life insurance, houses, cars, stocks, bonds, college savings, all are transitory and impermanent... There is nothing to compare with Advanced Courses. They are infinitely valuable and transcend time itself."

- L. Ron Hubbard speaking of his Operating Thetan Courses, Flag Mission Order 375


"'Psychiatry' and 'psychiatrist' are easily redefined to mean 'an anti-social enemy of the people'. This takes the kill crazy psychiatrist off the preferred list of professions...The redefinition of words is done by associating different emotions and symbols with the word than were intended...Scientologists are redefining 'doctor', 'Psychiatry' and 'psychology' to mean 'undesirable antisocial elements'...The way to redefine a word is to get the new definition repeated as often as possible. Thus it is necessary to redefine medicine, psychiatry and psychology downward and define Dianetics and Scientology upwards. This, so far as words are concerned, is the public opinion battle for belief in your definitions, and not those of the opposition. A consistent, repeated effort is the key to any success with this technique of propaganda."

Ces reportages vidéo dénoncent les dangers de la thérapie de scientologie. La scientologie est une nébuleuse sur laquelle ont enquêté de nombreux journalistes. Il suffit de répondre une fois à un questionnaire pour recevoir des prospectus et des invitations. Au départ elle peut même paraître séduisante mais très rapidement les premières dérives apparaissent.
