Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology I have subscribed to a new channel and this was posted April 19th. The mini raids everywhere seem to be the first part of a Siege encouraged by many Anonymous. Congratulations Anonymous. The last Siege (1999 - 2002) drove C0$ nuts. And that was a handful of Sps in maybe 10 cities. With 10,000+ willing to show up at anytime and besiege the C0$- DM may sail away on the Freewinds for good! Text follows: YouTube - Anonymous Lays Seige to Scientology Many who seek to dismantle Scientology, have joined together Now we speak, with one voice: Anonymous, Hello, leadership of Scientology. We are, Anonymous. Presently, you have successfully manipulated Youtube, to remove the accounts of two major detractors of your criminal organization. Whether or not these accounts remain suspended, it is your criminal activities, which are unacceptable, and will not be tolerated. Also recently, you sent your terrorist wing the OSA, to stalk and expose some of our members, and use the law, to harass them. They may have fallen or not, but already many more Anonymous, galvanized by your terrorist acts, have joined our popular uprising, and have taken up their cause. We have decided, to punish you, for your actions against us, and others, as well as to further our aim, to peacefully deconstruct your organization. We have determined, to take an immediate course of action, which we believe, you will not find pleasant at all. Your criminal acts, to destroy detractors and defectors on the internet, and on the streets of the worlds free nations, grow increasingly desperate. Desperation precedes panic. Celebrities are beginning to publicly leave Scientology. European Nations move ever more boldly against Scientology, to suppress your criminal activities. You obviously recognize, there are cracks appearing and widening, in the façade of power you maintain, to control your staff and victims. We anticipated this day would come. And we have planned how to take advantage, of your own foolish actions. Previously peaceful Anonymous demonstrators have been appearing at your doors monthly. You call us terrorists, and try to intimidate us, with your own terror campaign, even covertly producing a video, threatening to bomb yourselves, and falsely claiming it came from us. That was stupid. No one has forgotten what Scientology did to Paulette Cooper. To punish you, we are declaring a Summer Siege of Scientology. For the months of May, June, July and August, all Anonymous members, are being encouraged to give the demonstrations, an extra hour or two. Everyone who can will come out for the major demonstrations. And everyone who can will show up, whenever possible, in groups of at least five. These, Guerilla Demonstrations, will be especially effective as they will occur without pattern or warning, other than to the local authorities, to inform them of our peaceful intent. We intend that every time you look out your windows and doors, you will likely see some of us. We will constantly remind you, your staff your members, the general public and especially the local and national governments, of the many crimes of Scientology. The violation of the Human Rights of your staff, and the abuse of their children, as well as the continued application of your cruel Disconnection Policy, are reasons enough to lay siege to Scientology. However, there are a few key crimes of Scientology we wish to focus world attention on, at this time. We will lay siege, because Scientology as a matter of your corporate policy called Fair Game, you actively seek to destroy, any detractors and defectors who expose, or oppose, your illegal conduct, and criminal methods. We will lay siege, because Scientology, also as a matter of your corporate policy called Fair Game, you continue to actively intimidate the media into silence, and you continue internet cyber terrorist attacks, in an attempt to silence your opponents, of the communication generation. We will lay siege to you, to peacefully express, our righteous outrage at your morally bankrupt, and un ethical practices, because criminally convicted Scientology, currently continues, to condone and conduct, criminal activities in many nations. We will lay siege to you, because it is our right and because we can We will always be there, to remind you of your crimes. We will always be there, to help those who wish to escape your heartless grasp. We are the free speaking peoples of the world. We are watching. We are waiting. We are, Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Strong. Nicely done, well written. Sweet cadence to it. So pure and sincere. Clear. Summer Siege. Talent all around. (ok now to watch the tape)
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology AWESOME I especially like that the view counter has been stuck at 666 for over 4 hours.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology This is the ultimatium of ultimatums. The first video sent chills down the spines of many, This will do the same. Beware corrupted scilons, for our corrupted Lulz is coming.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Wait. Why do three people say they are on view 666? Is anyone else seeing that? Also: Nicely done! Favorited!
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology That video is outstanding. This is why I support Anonymous. Anonymous grows more powerful and righteous with each phase of this assault. What began as outrage over internet censorship has grown into a truly noble crusade. Everyone who participates in this movement will do something that benefits their society and their spirits. $cifags, you have turned a bunch of internet pranksters into a righteous army of justice. This wont end until your global scam is destroyed. I've never been more proud.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology is it christmas already? viewcounts don't update in real time. especially if they go up quickly.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Vegasanons issue a challenge: outdo us. In a way flashraids are more effective than the planned worldwide protest days, in that flashraids absolutely scare the shit out of the scilons. They expect us, but they have no idea what to do when we show up when they DON'T expect us. Utilize that.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology "Previously peaceful Anonymous demonstrators" desperately needs a comma/pause.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology VERY nice. And I like the call to escalation for the summer months, with major protests ongoing but more and more mini-raids. Some people are calling for wholesale changeover to JUST flash raids, though, which I think is fail. I'm not driving to Toronto or Ottawa to go to a flash raid. Alot of people are only going to come for bigger protests.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology This is a very good video. Now we need to make sure it gets the exposure it deserves.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology I hate to say this, but this video isn't as good for a number of reasons. It has the same style, people have moved on and don't want to see the same thing again. It's too wordy/too long. And it doesn't give off the same feeling that the first one did, that "Oh Shit, things are really going to happen now".
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology To be honest, when I saw the first video, my reaction was that it was a very powerful statement, but was either a joke - or wishful thinking that soon would be a joke. I (and many, many others) were STUNNED beyond the ability of words to describe when people actually hit the streets, all over the world no less.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology mirroring it now .... on several accounts. then I´ll leave for the first flash raid during my lunch break ;-)
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology I like the message. However, I'm stuck on dial-up so I can't watch the video. I just hope that it isn't a long message spoken with the voice distortion, because people who are apathetic will probably get irritated and stop watching. And there will probably never be another video like the first one. It was epic. Not to piss in anyone's Cheerios, but I'm a bit confused. I thought Anonymous was leaderless. If so, then who makes these decisions? I'm not arguing against the decision in this video to hold spontaneous raids throughout the summer (in fact, I think it is a kick-ass idea), I just feel that saying you are leaderless but taking orders from whoever creates these videos is a bit hypocritical. Sorry, I'm just a loner and have always been. I'll be right there with you guys on May 10th when you protest Scientology, but I won't be part of the group
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology The vids are created after we come to a (semi-)consensus. Anonymous is leaderless, but individual members have a tendency to take any half-decent idea (and a few not-so-decent ones) and run with it.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology I've been telling people that this is the first demonstration organized by gossip. Until the internet we couldn't confirm rumours fast enough to act on them, much less verify them first. These videos are just the better tales being repeated in a new media. No leaders, some people just tell the tale very well, and we all listen to a good story. After that we all decide for ourselves if there's enough substance to act on. Individual action has a lot of I's
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Thanks for the reply, Anonymous43215. However, I think that certain elements of Anonymous do more to hurt the cause than to help. Standing outside with a sign that says "loldongs" (or something similar to that, something that no one outside of channers has any idea what it means), and calling everyone ___fags isn't going to win people over who think that these things are immature. Again, I don't want anyone to think that I'm against Anonymous because I'm not. I'm for you guys, and will be there to support you. I just wish we could get past some of the immaturity in the movement. I think it would help to make Anonymous even more efficient with the public. That's just my opinion though.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology It's is not so much of a guy calling the shots, it is more of a person chucking an idea (this video) and then seeing if others roll with it or not. Of course, once people reach a consensus, then Anon goes about on that path...
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Disagree completely. As an anon motivator? Maybe not as good as the first one. As an attention-getting video for people who aren't anon? Very much so. You have to remember that we're 3 months and change into this operation and the general public are just starting to get informed. If we just have the one initial video (well, the other less-popular chanology videos too but those were never big hits), it may seem like we're one hit wonders. Having a few of these things that are professional-looking, creepy, and talked-up means that people may think twice about blowing this movement off.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Summer? Just a thought, guys...there is a whole other hemisphere besides the one in which you live. And in that hemisphere those months will be WINTER.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Well ... lets be honest here ... we're talking about Australia and New Zealand, not much else. And I don't think they even have snow down there, do they?
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Epic video, and to the lulz killers here, then hush, humor is one of our greatest weapons. Sure, meme signs or whatever don't put the point across that much, but who cares? They are funny, and that is what we are, we are the antithesis of the Co$ who has no sense of humor. Plus there are plenty of people at the protests who give out proper information, so stop baaawing and chill out.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Eye think the video is awesome, why?...because it updates viewers on the latest issues and developments, stays true to the message of anonymous, has humor, yet has a serious tone, its promotes peaceful, lawful means of protest, and finally reminds supporters that this is a long battle and reminds COS that we are here to stay in many forms.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology I say this as an Ausfag: Only two of the protest locations in Australia/New Zealand will be guaranteed to be snow-free during the winter protests.
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Well, ok, but then how will we ever have a Summer of Lulz? Maybe Ausfags could just bear with the rest of us and ignore the summer references?
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology That was absolutlely one of the best since the Message to Scientology/Call to Action and Anonymous Press Release. Saved as a favorite and I'll be using it in some of our information campaigns. :guyfawkes:
Re: Anonymous Lays Siege to Scientology Sydney has already been having flashraids. We're way ahead of you. Despite the blizzards. :whistle:
