Cette australienne de 25 ans a tué son père, blessé sa mère, tué sa soeur, et tenté de se suicider. Les parents scientologues ne voulaient pas qu'elle prenne ses médicaments anti-psychotiques. Murder accused mentally ill, court told
Sydney woman charged with the stabbing murder of her father and sister has pleaded not guilty due to mental illness. The 26-year-old woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is charged with murdering her father and younger sister at their Revesby home in Sydney's south-west in July 2007. She has also pleaded not guilty to a charge of inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent to murder her mother. The court previously heard the woman was diagnosed with a mental illness but refused to take medication because of her parents' belief in Scientology. Justice Grove has ordered the woman be kept in a medium security unit at Long Bay jail. He will make a judgement on the matter next week. |

Australian Anonymous Movement lauches Operation Anonville ‘Operation Anonville' - A National Protest Against the Church of Scientology
July 26, 2008 marks the 7 month anniversary since the release of the now infamous "Message to Scientology" video on youtube, the day that the majority of Anonymous consider to be the start of the Anti-Scientology Chanology Movement. onwards, thousands of Anonymous will take to the streets of Sydney to protest peacefully against the actions of the Church of Scientology. This will include members of Anonymous from all over Australia as a show of force. onwards, thousands of Anonymous will take to the streets of Sydney to protest peacefully against the actions of the Church of Scientology. This will include members of Anonymous from all over Australia as a show of force. Anonymous is a grassroots collective comprised of ordinary people from all walks of life, from former Scientolo- gists and long-time cult activists, to college students and corporate professionals, all united in recognition of the malign nature of the Church of Scientology, the danger it poses to society, and the necessity of action. Since the campaign's inception in January, over 10,000 activists from around the world have joined Anonymous' fight, and millions have been made aware of the dangers posed by the Church and its practices. Multiple governments [1] have become aware of the perverse tactics of Scientology, and are beginning to take positive steps in reducing the damage it perpetrates. Under increasing pressure from media, police departments [2] and the tide of public opinion, Scientology has gone on the attack. In recent weeks, Anonymous protesters have been stalked and threatened with legal action in an attempt to dissuade them from protesting, and silence their criticism. Anonymous remain undaunted, and will continue to confront the cult and its numerous front groups wherever they pose a threat. Anonymous hopes that public displays of opposition to Scientology's abuses will promote useful debate among Scientologists and members of the public leading to a better understanding of the true nature and merits of the Scientology organisation and an end to perceived abuses.

Nouveau FAUX et USAGE de FAUX par la scientologie aux USA
On sait que la scientologie n'hésite pas une seconde à faire des faux, y compris devant la justice, et même sous serment. On a déjà vu qu'elle se recommandait du Ministre de la Défense norvégien, du Roi de Suède, alors que ces hauts personnages avaient à peine entendu parler de la scientologie et ne l'avaient jamais appréciée. Parmi les dernières vantardises, la scientologie a prétendu avoir reçu une Médaille de Valeur - la plus haute récompense - de la part des Pompiers de New York (FDNY). Là encore, c'est un total mensonge. L'individu qui a accordé cette "récompense" pour les "hauts faits" des sectaires à l'occasion du 11 septembre n'est pas même membre des pompiers de NY, n'a jamais été pompier actif mais seulement administratif, n'a aucun droit d'accorder des récompenses, et surtout pas la plus enviée de toutes. Non seulement la scientologie s'est servie de cette récompense inexistante et a laissé Hittmann (le faux pompier) ramasser des sommes dont on ignore le montant pour une association qui n'existe pas mais dont il se disait le patron, mais de plus, la scientologie ne pouvait ignorer que cette "Medal of Valor" n'a jamais été attribuée après 1945 à des gens qui n'étaient pas morts en service ! On a donc bien affaire à une captation de prestige et une escroquerie qui vise à profiter d'une récompense inexistante. by Dr. Lilly von Marcab
Hittmann The Scientology cult loudly boasts that after 9/11, its "Volunteer Ministers" were awarded the Fire Department of New York's highest honor, the "Medal of Valor." This is not only a lie, but an insult to the memory all the brave firefighters who died in the line of duty and were awarded this Medal posthumously. Dozens of Scientology web site and blogs brazenly make this claim, in a continuing effort to legitimize their cult. Scientology's "Volunteer Ministers," or more accurately, "Vulture Ministers," are a special corps of opportunists who, presenting themselves as mental health counselors, flock to the scene of major tragedies, natural disasters, school shootings, etc., in order to prevent and obstruct legitimate mental health professionals from reaching victims and others who may have been affected. (See recent
article here: http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2008/06/26/18511436.php In the weeks that followed, when concerns were raised about the effect on rescue workers of Ground Zero's toxic air quality, the Vulture Ministers steered them to a Scientology-owned business franchise called Narconon. This company uses a variety of simplistic and ineffective approaches to "detoxify" people, mostly drug addicts, with the goal of making them into Scientologists. The Vulture Ministers and Narconon took this opportunity to recruit rescue workers into the cult by offering them free treatments at Narconon facilities. According to the New York times, more than 140 fire-fighters took them up on this. Three years later in 2004, on the occasion of the Scientology cult opening a new headquarters in New York City, a Scientologist named Stephan Hittman made the following "proclamation": + + + "In recognition of the humanitarian efforts of the Volunteer Ministers of the Church of Scientology, and the help they provided to members of the Fire Department of the City of New York, in keeping with the principles developed by L. Ron Hubbard; and "WHEREAS: FDNY and the 911 PROGRAM recognize this unwavering commitment to firefighters, to paramedics, to other rescue workers, in keeping with our proudest traditions; and be it known, "THEREFORE: That FDNY and the 911 PROGRAM officially recognize this dedicated service to the citizens of the City of New York, and hereby bestow upon L. Ron Hubbard and the Volunteer Ministers of the Church of Scientology, the FDNY and the 911 PROGRAM's Medal of Valor and 9–11 Service Award — on the occasion of the Grand Opening of the New York Church of Scientology." + + + Not only is it preposterous that the Vulture Ministers would be honored in this way, and not the many agencies and organizations that actually helped people, but Hittman was not authorized to make such an award, or even any award, on behalf of the Fire Department of New York. He had a little administrative job. Hittman claimed to be an "Honorary Commissioner" of the Fire Department. This was a lie. Who is Stephan Hittman? He is a guy who grew up in Brooklyn, went to college and became the manager of the Division of Special Education for the New York City Board of Education. He had that job for a long time. Evidence shows that he worked in that office from at least as early as 1984 until 1998, and possibly later. At some point between 1998 and 2001 he took a job with the New York Fire Department, managing the Department's program for distance learning, which helps firefighters to take online courses with various colleges across the country. This educational division is called the "Office of Fire and Life Safety," which sound rather more exciting than it actually is. Hittman would work out arrangements with these colleges so that the firemen could take courses that were relevant to their professional interests. It was a nice, safe, desk job, with very little adventure or heroics involved. Then came 9/11. It has been suggested that Hittman was instrumental in arranging the Narconon sessions for the rescue workers. It is not clear at this point what happened after that, but evidence suggests that Hittman was asked to resign from his position. It seems that he may have been giving speeches and presentations on the pretext that he was an emergency services expert and a true hero of the Fire Department. Here is an account from New York's Uniformed Fire Officers Association (UFOA): + + + "After the events of 09/11/01, this former civilian employee of the Fire Department has masqueraded in the uniform of the FDNY. He was so bold as to wear the insignia of the Chief of Department and numerous decorations for valor. Conduct of this nature is absolutely offensive to the members of the FDNY and cannot be tolerated. During several speaking engagements in which he participated, he characterized his career in the FDNY as being a leader who helped rebuild the FDNY after 09/11/01. The facts could not be further from the truth. When we learned of his activities, the UFOA was able to provide information to a company that was in the process of hiring him for a management position and others contracting with him for future lectures. Needless to say, job offers and his ability to lecture have stopped. This past week there have been several newspaper articles that criticized his fund raising and the use of the FDNY uniform. The Department has also notified DOI and provided documentation regarding Mr. Hittman's activities." + + + Indeed, Hittman had been running around the USA giving speeches, and collecting money for the non-existent "9/11 Foundation," of which he claimed to be the CEO. After the UFOA blew the whistle on him and his speaking gigs started drying up, Hittman took his act to Latin America, where he gave talks and collected donations from audiences in Argentina, the Dominican Republic, Peru, and other countries, until the director of Peru's firefighter training organization started spreading the word that Hittman had no idea what he was talking about and that he was a fraud. Hittman's present activities are not known, but he is almost certainly somewhere in the New York City metropolitan area, possibly even at the Scientology offices he helped to dedicate. But Hittman's masquerade party is not the only reason that the Medal of Valor could not possibly have been given to Scientology's Vulture Ministers. According to the Fire Department, + + + The Fire Department Medal of Valor was first issued by the FDNY in 1911 and is engraved with the City seal. Shortly after World War II, the Department began issuing this medal to the next of kin of members who had died in the line-of-duty. Since 1960, the medal has been awarded posthumously and exclusively for line of duty death. + + + The medal has been awarded POSTHUMOUSLY and EXCLUSIVELY for line of duty death. Scientology leaders were well aware that Stephan Hittman was not authorized to award the New York City Fire Department's Medal of Honor. They knew it then, and they know it now. Why, then, does Scientology brag at every possible opportunity that the Fire Department of New York awarded them this Medal? Will Scientology return the Medal to the Fire Department, if it is an actual Medal that was misappropriated? Will they apologize to the Fire Department, and take down the offensive boasting from their countless web sites? Not unless they are forced to do so. Someone should force them. What real NY firefighters think about Hittman:

La scientologie perd un procès (enfin, elle se démet avant le procès) aux Iles Cook ... La scientologie a plié bagage après qu'un révérend d'une église locale ait protesté devant les tribunaux contre la tente de racolage des scientologues. Le porte-parole de la secte a déclaré qu'il ne voulait pas soutenir un procès. Scientology Official Dismantles Displays To Avoid Court Tussle By Ulamila Wragg in Rarotonga
A rival church’s petition against the Church of Scientology was dismissed by the Cook Islands High Court this afternoon after Scientology officials removed a display tent that was the focus of the court action. Local church leader Reverend Alfred Morris applied to the court this week for the removal of a display tent erected by the Church of Scientology in the capital Avarua. Morris said that apart from having no approval under the Religious Organisations Restrictions Act 1975, the Scientologists were rejected by the Religious Advisory Council and not endorsed by a Resolution of Cabinet. Church of Scientologist spokesperson Mathew Andrews, in a letter to the court today, said the display tent was dismantled in response to the writ. He said this was done because he wanted to keep the peace and not get into a legal battle. Judge Justice Patrick Savage then dismissed the application by Morris. The Church of Scientology was given an approval by local government minister Ngamau Munokoa to set up in the town area. "We have come here to provide a community service, not to argue the laws in the Cook Islands," Andrews said outside court. Andrews said Reverend Morris could have seen them first before going straight to court. The Church of Scientology has been in the Cook Islands for two months, having previously been to Samoa, American Samoa and Fiji over the last two years. |

Un colis de 17 kilos contenant les oeuvres complètes de Ron Hubbard, le créateur de la scientologie: voilà ce qu'a reçu le Bibliobus de l'Université populaire jurassienne. Un encombrant cadeau, au propre comme au figuré, qui a aussitôt fini ... à la poubelle, apprend-on dans la réponse du Gouvernement jurassien à une question écrite du député Jean-Marie Miserez (PS). «Cette documentation ne répond pas du tout aux critères de la politique d'acquisition du Bibliobus», précise le Gouvernement. On osait l'espérer. Des questions générales De nombreuses bibliothèques à travers tout le pays ont reçu un colis identique. Dans le Jura toutefois, le Bibliobus jurassien en a eu l'exclusivité. Ce cas particulier a inspiré à Jean-Marie Miserez des questions plus générales. Il voulait notamment savoir s'il existe dans le Jura des recommandations à l'usage des bibliothèques pour ce genre de situations. La réponse est non. Dans le même ordre d'idées, ajoute le Gouvernement, «il n'existe pas, il ne peut et il ne doit pas exister de listes de proscriptions ou de prescriptions à l'égard de telle ou telle association, tel ou tel groupe de pression ou tel ou tel individu qui propose gratuitement ses publications aux bibliothèques». «Toute initiative moralisante de l'autorité constitue en fait une forme de censure à l'égard du citoyen adulte», insiste le Gouvernement, non sans préciser que «des critères spécifiques régissent les bibliothèques de jeunes». Et de citer en exemple ... de ce qu'il ne faut pas faire «l'épuration appliquée il y a quelques années aux collections des bibliothèques par certaines municipalités françaises dirigées par l'extrême droite». (clj) Remarque d'anti-scientologie Jean-Claude Guerdat le directeur du Bibliobus de l'Université populaire jurassienne nous a signalé que le coli venait du Danemark sans la moindre indication de sa relation avec la scientologie. En plus des livres de Ron Hubbard le coli de 17 Kilos contenait également une vidéo. Des téléphones ou visites de la scientologie ne changeront pas sa décision nous a-t-il confirmé. |

Narconon se fait lourdement critiquer au Québec Pour ceux qui ne parlent pas anglais, prendre la partie video, elle est en français- En résumé, on lit dans la partie anglaise que Narconon (donc scientologie) veut infiltrer le ministère de la santé québecois pour savoir à quoi ressemblera une nouvelle loi sur les centres de désintoxication, afin de tenter d'adapter ses centres aux nouvelles règles.
Thank you Scythe ! Quebec Anons once again rock and deliver ! |

La chronique de Julius Grey
Longtemps la mal-aimée des grandes libertés du Canada, la liberté d'expression vient d'emporter trois victoires juridiques. Dans chacun de ces cas, la rectitude politique en a pris un coup. D'abord, la Cour suprême, dans une question de diffamation, a déclaré qu'un commentaire fait de bonne foi est justifié même s'il est déraisonnable. En l'occurrence, l'utilisation d'un langage exagéré contre les homophobes n'a pas engendré de responsabilité civile. Dans une autre cause, très médiatisée, la Commission des droits de la personne de la Colombie-Britannique n'a pas retenu les plaintes contre le journaliste Mark Steyn et contre le magazine McLean's à la suite de sa critique cinglante de l'islam. Finalement, la Cour d'appel du Québec a refusé aux membres du Falun Gong, une nouvelle «religion » chinoise, de poursuivre un journal qui avait publié des propos scabreux au sujet de leur fondateur, maître Lee. Maître Lee lui-même aurait pu poursuivre. L'humiliation et le sentiment d'avoir été blessés ne permettaient toutefois pas aux adhérents de cette religion de demander compensation pour eux-mêmes. L'effet de ces jugements sera particu- lièrement marquant en matière de religion. La liberté de religion et de conscience est assez large pour englober le droit de s'opposer à la religion et de critiquer une ou plusieurs religions. On peut faire cela de façon polie, respectueuse mais aussi de façon musclée et insultante. À la suite de cette série de jugements, il est clair que les caricatures de Mohammed, si contestées à travers le monde, seraient parfaitement loisibles chez nous. De nos jours, des critiques du christianisme, notamment dans l'histoire du Québec, passent sans problème, mais les autres religions s'élèvent contre toute critique ou satire. Après les récents jugements, nous pourrions prendre pour acquis qu'il n'y a plus de sujets tabous et que seule la propagande haineuse définie d'une façon très étroite est sujette à sanction. Il est peut-être temps de demander aux tribunaux de réexaminer les lois sur la propagande haineuse dont les risques à la liberté sont plus grands que les bénéfices. AU-DELÀ DE LA RELIGION La nouvelle tendance favorable à la liberté s'étendra au-delà de la religion, à tous les sujets controversés. L'égalité des sexes, l'égalité des races et le respect de toutes les orientations sexuelles sont très importantes pour nous. Est-il cependant nécessaire d'insister que ceux qui ont une vision traditionnelle ou même rétrograde se taisent ? Depuis quelques années, le Canada souffre d'une gentillesse étouffante. Il ne faut pas dire des choses qui blessent ou offensent des membres des lobbys puissants. Cette obligation de gentillesse est loin d'être si gentille. Au nom de la gentillesse et des droits absolus des soi-disant victimes, nous sommes prêts à briser des carrières, à imposer des sanctions monétaires accablantes et même à utiliser le droit pénal contre ceux qui rechignent à l'orthodoxie dominante. Il est vrai qu'une partie des discours prohibés est le fruit de l'ignorance, de la colère et du mauvais goût. En même temps, il existe une possibilité que des idées nouvelles, différentes et innovatrices soient réprimées ou non exprimées par prudence. Espérons donc que le revirement des tribunaux en faveur de l'expression libre sonne le glas de la rectitude politique et de la gentillesse étouffante. La chronique de Julius Grey - July 14, 2008
Here's
to you, Canadian Anons, from the highly regarded, specialist
of minority rights and individual liberties, canadian lawyer
Julius
Grey Long unpopular of the great liberties in Canada, freedom of expression has just won three judicial verdicts. In each of these cases, political correctness has taken a hit. First, the Supreme Court, in a diffamation case, declared that a commentary made in good faith is justified even if unreasonnable. In occurrence, the use of an exagerated language against homophobes did not involve civil responsibility. In another case, B.C.’s Commission on human rights did not retain complaints against journalist Mark Steyn and Mclean magazine following his strong critic of islam. Finally, Quebec’s court of appeal refused members of Falun Gong, a new chinese religion, the right to sue a newspaper that had published insulting words about its founder, master Lee. Master Lee himself could have sued. Humiliation and hurt feelings could not however permit adepts of this religion to ask for compensation for themselves. The effect of these judgements will be particularly memorable in religion matters. Religious and conscience freedoms are large enough to carry the right to oppose religion and to critic one or more religions. One can do it politely, with respect, but also in an insulting and strong manner. After that series of arguments, it is clear that Mohammed caricatures, contested throughout the world, would be perfectly permissible here (Canada). These days, critics of christianism, notably in the history of Quebec, would go along without problems, but other religions are intolerant to critic and satire. After the recent judgements, we could take for granted that there is no more taboo subjects and that only hate propaganda defined in strict way can be sanctioned. It may be time to ask tribunals to re-examine the laws on hate propaganda in which the risks for freedom outweigh the benefits. Beyong religion The new tendency to favor freedom will extend beyong religion, to all controversial subjects. Equality of the sexes, race equality, and respect of all sexual orientations are very important for us. Is it necessary to insist that those who have a traditionnal or even reactionnary vision of things would keep silence? For some years, Canada has suffered from suffocating kindness. Hurtful or offensive things cannot be said to members of powerful lobbies. This obligation of kindness is far from being kind. In the name of kindness and absolute rights of so-called victims, we are ready to destroy careers, to impose monetary sanctions and even to use the penal code against those who oppose dominant orthodoxy. It’s true that part of the prohibited discourse is the product of ignorance, anger and bad taste. At the same time, there’s a possibility that different and innovative ideas are repressed or un expressed under prudence. Let’s hope that tribunal reversals in favor of freedom of expression will halt political correctness and suffocating kindness.
------- This fits like a glove with Anonymous. Case closed. Please communicate to other canadian Anons. |

L' article ci-dessous montre que les scientologues de Los Angelès se sont plusieurs fois rendus ridicules ce mois-ci. Les scientologues ont bouclé leur quartier (avec la bénédiction de LAPD, police de LA) le 7 juillet et ont même empêché une handicapée de rentrer chez elle ! Les scientologues ont appelé le grand patron de la société de bus qui transportait des anonymes, en prétendant qu'ils allaient profiter de l'étage du bus pour jeter des bombes sur eux. Le patron a appelé les policiers de LA, qui cette fois, l'ont rassuré. Entretemps, des scientologues ont apposé sur les bus une affiche disant "Anonymes interdits", cela sans la moindre permission du propriétaire ! Los Angeles Church of Scientology Commits PR Blunders by Isabel Joliston
July has been a bad PR month for the Church of Scientology in Los Angeles. Picks on senior citizen, makes child cry and bullies local businesses July has been a bad PR month for the Church of Scientology in Los Angeles. On July 5th, the organization shut down pedestrian access on Sunset Blvd and Fountain Ave, fearing that their special event would be picketed. Local residents and hospital visitors were often denied access to the sidewalk, particularly if they showed any interest in the protest. In one instance, a Scientology security guard attempted to deny a disabled senior citizen from walking to her home; this was documented on a popular YouTube video which has spawned a new internet catch phrase to describe Scientology: "Bad People". The same day, a Scientology operative placed a "No Anonymous" sign in the Subway sandwich shop close to the Scientology complex known internally as "PAC Base" (Pacific Area Command). Members of Anonymous, the internet free speech collective, were protesting Scientology's unconstitutional actions close by and noticed the sign, which was not authorized by Subway. Anonymous asked permission from the store manager, and then removed the sign which was later replaced by "some lady," according to Subway employees. The second sign was also removed. Anonymous--who wear masks, play music, pass out candy and dance cheerfully as they protest Scientology--are known as "the protesters who have made activism sexy again," according to the Times Online UK. Southern California Anonymous have held six major anti-Scientology protests with up to 800 people present, as well as over thirty "flash raids" comprised of smaller groups picketing various locations around Los Angeles. All have gone off without incident. On July 12th, at a rally that was part of the monthly global Anonymous demonstrations, Scientology created more bad PR for themselves. During the peaceful rally at the same location, a female Scientologist entered the Subway sandwich shop and posted another "No Anonymous" sign. The woman then forcefully blocked a 6-year old girl and her parents from entering the shop, telling them to "respect the sign" and causing the child cry. Additionally, the woman physically harassed members of Anonymous inside the store, attempting to shove one protestor out the door. The Los Angeles Police Department officers assigned to monitor the demonstration entered the shop and removed the sign. And if making a child cry wasn't enough action for one day, Scientology – which had once again closed the sidewalks on both Sunset Blvd. and Fountain Ave. surrounding their property to block the Anonymous protest – threatened fellow Hollywood Chamber of Commerce member Starline Tours, the internationally known tour bus company. "Because of the sidewalk closures, we arranged for a double-decker bus to take participating Anonymous demonstrators along Sunset and Fountain as part of our rally," explained one Anonymous. "It's a comfortable and fun way to demonstrate, especially during the heat wave we're having." Upon discovering the plan, Scientology called Farid Sapir, owner of Starline Tours, and told him that he had rented his bus to "terrorists" who were planning to use the red double-decker bus to "attack the church with bombs". Understandably concerned, Sapir contacted the Hollywood Division of the LAPD who in turn spoke with Anonymous and reassured Sapir that the situation was completely safe and peaceful. Seventy members of Anonymous clad in masks and holding signs declaring, "Scientology is a Dangerous Cult" and asking "What kind of cult stalks its critics?" clambered aboard – only to receive a last minute change-of-heart call from Sapir. He explained that Scientology had pressured him into canceling the contract, and had threatened him with loss of business, according to the contact who discussed the situation with him directly. "As much fun as the double-decker bus ride would have been, it's typical of Scientology to be bullies and to call anyone who questions their policies a terrorist or a criminal," laughed one Anonymous as she exited the bus. "Too bad they felt they had to hurt the bus company and make false threats. But Scientology taking the bus tour away from us won't stop us from having a good time today, nor from continuing on a daily basis to inform the pubic about Scientology's abuses of human rights." Despite the adversity, members of Anonymous were determined to continue their planned protest. They took up positions along the sidewalks on Sunset Blvd and Fountain Ave., respectfully obeying police orders and the permitted sidewalk closures. The protest continued peacefully and without incident for more than three hours. More information on Anonymous and its global protests against Scientology can be found in the August issue of Maxim magazine. – Isabel Joliston

Manifestation contre l'Église de scientologie par Marc Allard
Un manifestant expose ses arguments. Le Soleil, Laetitia Deconinck Masqués et munis de larges pancartes, une poignée de membres du mouvement Internet Anonymous ont manifesté hier à Québec pour dénoncer l’Église de scientologie. Les cinq manifestants, tous de jeunes hommes, ont protesté du début de l’avant-midi à la fin de l’après-midi sur les coins de rue près des locaux de l’Église de scientologie sur la rue Saint-Joseph. Leurs pancartes arboraient des slogans comme «Scientologie. Une secte qui veut vous arnaquer.» Intrigués, plusieurs passants s’arrêtaient pour leur poser des questions. Les jeunes hommes portaient des masques à l’effigie du héros de la bande dessinée V for Vendetta. «On porte un masque pour se protéger. Les scientologues sont là-bas, ils prennent des photos, ils essaient de nous retracer. On ne veut pas qu’ils nous harcèlent», a expliqué l’un d’eux, qui comme tous les autres, préférait garder l’anonymat. Anonymous est un mouvement international d’antiscientologues sur Internet. Il serait né lorsque l’Église de scientolgie a exercé des pressions pour faire retirer d’Internet une vidéo compromettante montrant l’acteur Tom Cruise, un de ses plus célèbres adeptes, en train de vanter les mérites de la scientologie. Une branche du réseau Anonymous a récemment vu le jour à Québec. Le site Internet www.anonqc.com a été mis en ligne il y a peu de temps. «Moi, dit un des manifestants anonymes qui participe au site québécois, je n’accepte pas que l’Église de scientologie me dise ce que je peux regarder.» Une fois par mois, les membres du mouvement Anonymous sont invités à tenir une manifestation dans plusieurs villes du monde. C’était hier la cinquième ou la sixième manifestation du genre à se dérouler à Québec. L’Église intervient À la suite d’une plainte de l’Église scientologie, la police de Québec est intervenue au cours de la journée pour disperser les manifestants hier la rue Saint-Joseph. À condition de rester tranquilles, ils ont toutefois pu demeurer sur place. Pendant ce temps, de l’autre côté de la rue, des scientologues proposaient tout de même des test de stress gratuits aux promeneurs comme les jeunes hommes masqués n’étaient pas là. «Tout le monde a le droit de manifester, de communiquer son opinion sur n’importe quoi, en autant que ça reste pacifique et que ça ne dérange pas les activités des autres», a commenté Karine Gagnon, porte-parole de l’Église de scientologie, concernant les manifestations. «Les paroissiens continuent de venir quand même.» |

By Richard Gurner The Church of Scientology is planning to increase its foothold in Sussex, The Argus can reveal. http://www.arguslite.co.uk/....php Graeme Wilson, the director of public affairs, said the organisation was looking at the local property market and it is thought any new premises could provide a headquarters for members in Brighton and Hove. Mr Wilson said: "The Church of Scientology internationally is very much expanding and to accommodate that expansion, new premises are being acquired for our existing churches worldwide. "There is nothing concrete planned in the Brighton area currently, though we keep ourselves abreast of what is on the market that might be suitable." The controversial organisation, which is not recognised as a religion under British law, paid £3.6 million in October last year for a disused distillery in Manchester and in 2006 opened its £23 million London headquarters in Queen Victoria Street. Its main British base is in East Grinstead. Brighton Pavilion MP David Lepper said he had dealt with complaints from people about the way Scientology members approached people in the street. He said: "I'm concerned about the stories I read about the ways in which that particular cult allegedly takes over people's lives. "But of course if they are planning a new base in Brighton and Hove I suspect there to be issues on planning permission, depending on what the building is used for at the moment. "I'm aware that many people are wary of involvement with them. "I'm certainly aware of the criticism at the extent of which they attempt to control people's lives." The news that the Church of Scientology is keeping an eye out for a new base in the city will not be welcomed by the organisation's many critics in Brighton and Hove. Its current branch office in Brighton, North Street, near Churchill Square, is usually the scene of protests from a variety of groups opposed to the organisation. On Saturday, members of an internet-based group called Anonymous donned Guy Fawkes-style masks and handed out flyers to shoppers and passersby. Set up in the US in 1954, the Church of Scientology started to spread to Britain in the 1960s, according to Government files. It offers self-improvement on the basis of the writings of the late sciencefiction author L Ron Hubbard. What do you think of the expansion plans ? Tell us your views below. |
Le procureur de la région sibérienne de Novossibirsk a exigé la fermeture d'un centre local de l'Eglise de sciento- logie accusé de dispenser des programmes d'enseignement sans autorisation, a rapporté jeudi l'agence Interfax. Le parquet a officiellement réclamé "la liquidation de l'association à but non lucratif 'Centre de réhabilitation sociale des personnes ayant eu un passé criminel prouvé Kriminon-Novossibirsk'", selon un communiqué reproduit par Interfax. Ce centre "se livre à une activité d'enseignement, sans créer d'établissement d'enseignement correspondant, ce qui constitue une violation grossière de la loi", ajoute le procureur pour justifier sa décision de demander la fermeture de Kriminon-Novossibirsk. Il lui est notamment reproché de donner des cours, de faire des conférences, et d'organiser des séminaires. L'Eglise de scientologie a été fondée en 1954 par l'auteur de science-fiction L. Ron Hubbard aux Etats-Unis où elle a obtenu les avantages fiscaux réservés aux cultes (la scientologie n'est pas reconnue comme étant une religion aux USA mais comme étant une association à but caricatatif - note d'anti-scientologie). En Russie, une loi de 1996 la qualifie d'"organisation religieuse destructrice". La scientologie est considérée comme une secte dans nombre de pays européens, dont la France, l'Allemagne et la Belgique, (et la Suisse - note d'anti-scientologie) où ses détracteurs l'accusent de manipuler ses membres à des fins pécuniaires. |
Dans le site Internet du groupe (www.anonqc.com), qui vient d'être mis en ligne, on peut lire que «ce réseau social sert à la planification et à l'activisme contre la secte de la scientologie dans la ville de Québec», et que le but de ses actions est «d'exposer et de documenter les infractions de la secte au Canada comme dans le monde entier». Au bout du fil, cette semaine, un membre d'Anonymous a affirmé que le groupe, qui serait présent dans plus de 25 pays, compterait une cinquantaine de membres à Montréal et une dizaine dans la capitale. Selon le jeune homme, qui préfère qu'on ne dévoile pas son identité (!), Anonymous est «un groupe sans leader qui fonctionne sur Internet». «Tout le monde peut être Anonymous. Il n'y a pas de carte de membre», dit notre interlocuteur, que nous appellerons Georges. L'idée d'une guerre contre l'Église de scientologie a germé après que cette dernière eut exercé des pressions pour faire retirer d'Internet une vidéo compromettante montrant un de ses plus célèbres adeptes, l'acteur Tom Cruise, en train de vanter, sur un ton fanatique, les mérites de la scientologie. Ne digérant pas qu'on veuille les empêcher de voir Tom Cruise se ridiculiser, des internautes se sont mobilisés contre l'Église de scientologie, prenant d'assaut ses sites Internet pour empêcher les visiteurs d'y accéder. Des rassemblements se sont rapidement organisés dans plusieurs villes du monde pour lutter contre les façons de faire de l'Église. «Non seulement elle a une grosse histoire de censure, elle fait des campagnes de désinformation et diffuse des idées fausses sur la médecine», résume Georges. Lors de leurs manifestations, les membres d'Anonymous portent un masque à l'effigie du héros de la bande dessinée V for Vendetta. Dans son site Internet, Anonymous explique que si ses membres se camouflent, c'est que «l'Église de scientologie s'en prend parfois à ceux qui protestent contre ses activités». «Elle nous traque, nous
harcèle. Si vous n'êtes pas d'accord avec cette Église, prenez garde à ce
qu'elle ne découvre pas votre identité, où ses membres se verraient forcés de
vous poursuivre. L'Église de scientologie est extrêmement riche, a une puissante
équipe d'avocats et est reconnue pour poursuivre en justice tout ce qui bouge»,
peut-on encore lire dans www.anonqc.com Une manifestation (pacifique) devrait avoir lieu le 12 juillet devant les locaux de Québec de l'Église de scientologie, rue Saint-Joseph Est. «On espère que cette fois, la police ne nous déplacera pas, comme elle l'a fait la dernière fois», conclut Georges. |
