Sarah Palin's Email Account was Neither Hacked nor was "Hacker" a Member of the Group Known as 'Anonymous'
"Hacker" a Lone Wolf
Did the group known only as "Anonymous" hack Sarah Palin's email account?
If not, who did?
DBKP has learned that the Anonymous hacker was neither a hacker--at least, in this instance--nor representing the group known as "Anonymous". Anonymous is most famous for its fight against the Church of Scientology and its worldwide protests over the last year.
The "hacker", who is a 20-year-old male, actually didn't hack Palin's email. He guessed the password question on the Yahoo account (Where did you meet your partner?) and changed Palin's password to one that allowed him access.
So was Palin's hacker acting alone?
The "hacker" is NOT an active Anonymous member and describes himself as a "lurker". He's posted his reports of 'phishing' on various sites and "is probably thinking he can make anon his personal army for his partisan purposes," according to one source.
Anonymous has no partisan purposes, other than the portion of the group that has declared "war on the Church of Scientology".
No one 'speaks for Anonymous' might be a good way to describe the non-organization of the group.
Anonymous doesn't issue press releases because "they want complete anonymity, no press releases or counter statements, or anything that smacks of organization or leaderfagging."
DBKP will have more on this later today, with a in-depth report later this evening.
The Church of Scientology has been claiming that its been under attack by the group known as Anonymous. Yet there's been virtually no news coverage and limited press releases or "no comment" made by the Church in mainstream media.
The bulk of the accusations originate from an "anonymous" website where a video claims that back in January the Church was bombarded by harassing phone calls, faxes, and emails containing death and bomb threats. The anonymous video also claims that the group Anonymous sent them a "white powder" in envelopes that resembled anthrax and were responsible for gunshots fired at churches. The video goes on to claim that Anonymous "hacked" into Church of Scientology websites.
DBKP decided to take a closer look at a video, "Anonymous Exposed - Religious Hate Crimes and Terrorism" which has its own web page and is also posted on Youtube.
We decided to take a look at the claims made within the video and whether they had any validity. Here is the transcript from the video:
January 2008 a message from Anonymous is sent to the Church of Scientology:
"Leaders of Scientology, we are Anonymous. Anonymous is therefore decided that your organization should be destroyed... for our own enjoyment. We shall proceed to expel you from the internet and systematically dismantle the Church of Scientology in it's present form."
To justify inciting others to commit hate crimes against the church Anonymous claims the right to free speech contained in the First Amendment while showing contempt for the first part of that same Amendment that guarantees the freedom of religion.
Their "attacks" begin on January 17 - Anonymous illegally brings down a Church of Scientology public information website-- attacks continue for 5 days
Jan. 23rd - 272 harassing phone calls, more bomb threats to three churches, 50,000 obscene emails, threats of violence
Jan. 24th - 663 harassing phone calls
Then on Jan. 25th, Anonymous reiterates its message of hate:
"You shall be smitten down time and time again as we intend absolute annihilation of the Scientology cult"
But later that same day Anonymous attempts to change their message:
"I'd like to clarify our objectives to the press and the public. Allegations that Anonymous wishes to physically harm any human being as a part of our campaign against the cult of Scientology are patently untrue.
Yet they immediately escalate their assault: arson threat.
January 28th, another bomb threat
January 30th - envelopes containing an unknown white powder resembling anthrax are delivered by mail to 24 churches.
January 31th - gunshots fired at church property, more obscene faxes
Feb. 2nd - vandalism
Feb 4th - website attack
And on Feb 13th Anonymous issues to the "Church" of Scientology their "ultimate" threat:
"One 5 kilogram pack of nitroglycerin will detonate in the Churches of Scientology. These explosives will be in the most logical, however hidden, location in each church. This will be the world's biggest terrorist attack on a religion. Lives will be lost."
While claiming they are peaceful, in less than 3 weeks, Anonymous members made or encouraged 8,139 harassing or threatening phone calls, 3.6 million malicious emails, 141 million hits against church websites, 10 acts of vandalism, 22 bombs threats, and 8 death threats against members and officials of the Church of Scientology.
These are the facts.
And yet, are these truly the "facts", or the "facts" according to this anonymous video posted on its own website and on youtube?
The website itself is "anonymous". There's no link to the Church of Scientology. No "home page" or "About US" to refer to. At the top of the page is "The Documentary". There is no reference to who made this documentary.
The page "informs" those who visit it that its purpose is to "inform Anonymous members who may be unaware of the criminal acts committed by their leaders, and to prevent others from being misled by "Anonymous" propaganda, this video has been produced to provide the facts".
The site then states the video "reveals "Anonymous" repeated incitements to hate and violence" and yet the website fails to reveal who's behind its inception. The site goes on to state that the "Church has not interacted with these "Anonymous" individuals nor does it desire to."
It goes on to state: "However, death threats and threats to plant nitroglycerin bombs in churches have made it necessary to take security precautions and identify members of this group responsible for these crimes".
The only thing remaining on the site is the video and the blurb above it:
Anonymous - Religious Hate Crimes and Terrorism directed at the Church of Scientology
Since January 17, 2008, "Anonymous", a group of cyber-terrorists hiding their identities behind masks and computer anonymity, has targeted the Scientology religion, its Churches, leaders and parishioners with hate speech and hate crimes."
The irony behind this blurb is double edged, you have an anonymous website that has no author, no link to an official Scientology website, chastising another group, Anonymous, for being "anonymous". It's also an anonymous website that is doing exactly what Scientology has itself cried foul, of accusations without proof.
We wondered why the makers of this video made the decision to remain "anonymous" in putting out this video "documentary" about the alleged cyber-terrorist group Anonymous?
Could a partial explanation be that an "anonymous" website allows the persons who made it to make accusations without supplying proof? For example, the "envelopes of white powder" that were sent through the mail to various Scientology churches.
"Mailings of a suspicious white powder to 10 Church of Scientology addresses prompted the evacuation of dozens of people and the closure of a major thoroughfare Wednesday as hazmat teams were called to examine the packages.
The letters were sent via the Postal Service to Scientology properties in Hollywood, the San Fernando Valley, Santa Monica, Glendale and Tustin. Police shut part of Glendale's busy Brand Boulevard for two hours before sounding the all-clear, while 60 people were cleared from buildings in Tustin, authorities said. Source - LA Times
At this juncture no arrests have been made, in fact, there haven't been any "persons of interest" and the authorities have yet to name Anonymous as a suspect yet this video points the finger of blame squarely at Anonymous as the culprits behind the white powder incident.
"Initial field testing by LAPD indicates the powder is harmless," said FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller. "However, further testing will be conducted. We will also work to assess what threat, if any, was associated with the mailings and determine whether any federal statutes were violated."
The Church of Scientology had no comment about the incidents. The mailings come after a cyber attack last week on the Church's website. Authorities said there was no evidence that Wednesday's mailings were connected to the hacking. Source - LA Times
Recently DBKP wrote of the Cyber-War being waged between the mysterious groups known as Anonymous and the Church of Scientology. When we went to find Scientology's take on Anonymous, whether the organization had issued any statements or the like regarding their sworn enemy, we came across the remants of a video battle waged on Youtube. From what we observed, one side managed to "eviscerate" the other in plain cyber-site.
Scientology had issued a statement to Newsweek, calling Anonymous "a group of cyber-terrorists... perpetrating religious hate crimes against the Churches of Scientology and individual Scientologists for no reason other than religious bigotry".
In the Newsweek article an Anonymous spokesperson said the group, hardly a cyber-terrorist act, had "plans to start a lobbying campaign to have the church stripped of its 501(c)3 tax-exempt status, which was reinstated in 1993. (In 1967, tax authorities revoked its tax-exemption status on the grounds that the organization's auditing scheme operated as Hubbard's personal for-profit venture, and in 1984 the U.S. Tax Court found the organization guilty of "manufacturing and falsifying records to present to the IRS, burglarizing IRS offices and stealing government documents, and subverting government processes for unlawful purposes.") " Source - Newsweek
According to ABC News, Scientology chose to fight back "with its own public relations onslaught, releasing a recent video titled "Anonymous Exposed," which claims to identify individuals it said were members of the group and accuses them of being accessories to criminal acts that include death threats and destruction of property."
This is the video we found on Youtube entitled Anonymous Exposed. From what we observed the video had fallen into enemy hands. Rendered a mere shell of itself, its guts cyber-surgically altered, with evidence of Rick Rolling, it was clear that Anonymous had won.
We found the original Anonymous Exposed video on Youtube and posted it here for comparison sake. It's a prime example of bloodless cyber-warfare. Essentially Anonymous or someone had taken over the original Scientology video and turned it into a weapon of supreme satire.
The altered video floats across cyber-space, effectively rendered impotent by an anonymous cyber-surgical strike. Scientology's own message had been replaced with inside satire sharp enough to slice through the cult-like hyperbole.
In the cyber-war that rages between Scientology and the group known as Anonymous, the remains of the Anonymous Exposed video tell a story of a bloodless battle fought across the territory known as Youtube, of a win for Anonymous and another digital "pie in the face" for Scientology.
We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget.
Join us.
While we go about our daily lives, surfing the web, using it to pay bills or catch up on the latest news and chat with friends and family, little do we realize that just beneath the digital surface of the worldwide web a war is being waged, the first Cyber World War, of a modern day David versus Goliath.
Goliath is the Church of Scientology, a multi-billion dollar enterprise, who is being systematically unmasked by the group known as Anonymous, the modern day David.
Who is Anonymous and why did they declare war against the Church of Scientology?
Tom Cruise is perhaps the most famous Church of Scientology member on the planet. We mention planet because in the "Church" of Scientology, what we would consider science fiction, tales of intergalactic warfare and galaxies play a key role in the shrouded secret world of Scientology.
The origin of Scientology as a "religion" compared to other religions such as Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism is quite recent, founded by L. Ron Hubbard, a prolific science fiction writer in the early 1950's. Hubbard's Dianetics, a self-improvement book based on a mind-body-spirit relationship, was regarded in some circles as a scam and a "lunatic vision of Freudian psychology" while others believed it offered a new way to religious bliss.
Hubbard set up the Hubbard Dianetic Research Foundation in 1950 in New Jersey and then moved to Arizona in 1952 where Hubbard "expanded Dianetics" into Scientology, referring to it as an "applied religious philosophy".
While some may be aware of Hubbard's involvement in Scientology's origins what they don't know is how Scientology "works" as the group shrouds its "church" in secrecy. The secrecy may or may not be related to any sort of "religious" overtones, instead the secrecy may have been devised to cloak Scientology's method of charging its flock quite a bit of money to learn its "secrets" in order to rise up in the rank and file of the "church".
Piece by piece, his (Hubbard's) teachings are revealed to church members through a progression of sometimes secret courses that take years to complete and cost tens of thousands of dollars. Out of a membership estimated by the church to be 6.5 million, only a tiny fraction have climbed to the upper reaches. In fact, according to a Scientology publication earlier this year, fewer than 900 members have completed the church's highest course, nicknamed "Truth Revealed."
A group of hackers with the name of "Anonymous" has vowed to destroy the Church of Scientology and about a week ago, Scientology websites in the US and UK started crashing.
Below is the first video warning issued to Scientology by "Anonymous". The "Anonymous" tagline on all three of their video warnings has been "We are anonymous. We are legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget."
Two days ago, "Anonymous" supporters took to the streets in Phoenix, AZ in a demonstration outside the Phoenix Church of Scientology, staging a protest in commemoration of the birthday of Lisa McPherson, a Scientologist once cared for by church staffers.
McPherson died while under the care of Scientology.
As we are not up to speed on Scientology, we thought we'd run down some information on the Church of Scientology.
Is it a cult?
Is it a religion?
We will start out by saying that all religions start out as cults--Christianity, Islam and Jews all started out as a small band of believers in their religions.
So, being branded as a "cult" doesn't sway us one way or another.
There is some discrepancy as to how many Scientology members there actually are. In 2007, the Scientologists claimed 3.5 million members in the U.S., but a 2001 survey published by City University of New York, stated that "when asked to identify what religion you are", 55,000 in America claimed Scientology.
Scientology is a body of beliefs and related practices as well as a profitable multinational network of corporations created by American speculative fiction author L. Ron Hubbard. Hubbard developed Scientology teachings in 1952 as a successor to his earlier self-help system, Dianetics.
Hubbard later characterized Scientology as an "applied religious philosophy" and the basis for a new religion.[1] Scientology encompasses a spiritual rehabilitation philosophy and techniques,[1] and covers topics such as morals, ethics, detoxification, education and management.
From the Scientology website:
The word Scientology literally means "the study of truth." It comes from the Latin word "scio" meaning "knowing in the fullest sense of the word" and the Greek word "logos" meaning "study of."
Scientology is the study and handling of the spirit in relationship to itself, others and all of life. The Scientology religion comprises a body of knowledge extending from certain fundamental truths. Prime among these:
Man is an immortal, spiritual being. His experience extends well beyond a single lifetime. His capabilities are unlimited, even if not presently realized — and those capabilities can be realized. He is able to not only solve his own problems, accomplish his goals and gain lasting happiness, but also achieve new, higher states of awareness and ability.
In Scientology no one is asked to accept anything as belief or on faith. That which is true for you is what you have observed to be true. An individual discovers for himself that Scientology works by personally applying its principles and observing or experiencing results.
Through Scientology, people all over the world are achieving the long-sought goal of true spiritual release and freedom.
Seems like a noble enough goal.
Tom Cruise is the Top Scientologist in the public eye
Scientology does have the distinction of being the only religion created by a science fiction writer, L. Ron Hubbard.
Hubbard established Scientology's doctrines over a period of about 34 years beginning in 1952 and continuing until his death in January 1986, with the basic principles set out during the 1950s and 1960s.
Scientology was at first secular: "Scientology would be a study of knowledge," Hubbard stated in 1952. Hubbard later began to characterize Scientology's beliefs and practices as a religion in 1953; by 1960 he defined Scientology as: "a religion by its basic tenets, practice, historical background and by the definition of the word 'religion' itself." In 1969 he wrote that "It is fundamentally an applied religious philosophy." Hubbard recorded his doctrine in archived writings, audio tapes and films.
The world according to Scientology?
There is no single Scientology book that serves as the equivalent of the Bible or Koran. Knowledge of Scientology is achieved through the study of 18 basic books and over 3000 recorded lectures.
The primary belief of Scientology is "that man is a spiritual being whose existence spans more than one life and who is endowed with abilities well beyond those which he normally considers he possesses."
Unlike Christianity, Scientology believes that man is basically good.
Like Christianity and Islam, Scientology has its heretics and apostates.
Although "Scientology" is most often used as shorthand for the Church of Scientology, a number of groups practice Scientology and Dianetics outside of the official Church.
Some groups are breakaways from the original Church while others have started up independently. The Church labels these as "apostates" (or "squirrels" in Scientology jargon) and often subjects them to considerable legal and social pressure.
These groups avoid the name "Scientology" so as to keep from being sued, instead referring to themselves collectively as the Free Zone. Such groups include Ron's Org and the International Freezone Association, among others
Scientology's Satan?
The story of Xenu (or Xemu) is a controversial one.
Critics of Scientology say that the Xenu story is an incredible one. Of course, many religious stories seem incredible to non-believers.
Scientology is accused of trying to hide the Xenu story.
The story of Xenu is covered in OT III, part of Scientology's secret "Advanced Technology" doctrines taught only to advanced members. It is described in more detail in the accompanying confidential "Assists" lecture of 3 October 1968 and is dramatized in Revolt in the Stars (an unpublished screenplay written by L Ron Hubbard during the late 1970s). Direct quotations in this section are from these sources. (See also Scientology beliefs and practices)
Scientologists believe that seventy-five million years ago, Xenu was the ruler of a Galactic Confederacy which consisted of 26 stars and 76 planets including Earth, which was then known as Teegeeack. The planets were overpopulated, each having an average population of 178 billion.[1][2][3] The Galactic Confederacy's civilization was comparable to our own, with aliens "walking around in clothes which looked very remarkably like the clothes they wear this very minute" and using cars, trains and boats looking exactly the same as those "circa 1950, 1960" on Earth. Xenu was about to be deposed from power, so he devised a plot to eliminate the excess population from his dominions. With the assistance of "renegades", he defeated the populace and the "Loyal Officers", a force for good that was opposed to Xenu. Then, with the assistance of psychiatrists, he summoned billions of his citizens together to paralyze them with injections of alcohol and glycol, under the pretense that they were being called for "income tax inspections". The kidnapped populace was loaded into spacecraft for transport to the site of extermination, the planet of Teegeeack (Earth). The spacecraft were identical to the Douglas DC-8 with the exception of having different engines.
When they had reached Teegeeack/Earth, the paralyzed citizens were unloaded around the bases of volcanoes across the planet. Hydrogen bombs were then lowered into the volcanoes and detonated simultaneously. Only a few aliens' physical bodies survived. Hubbard described the scene in his film script, Revolt in the Stars:
Other Scientology beliefs are:
* A person is an immortal spiritual being (termed a thetan) who possesses a mind and a body. * The thetan has lived through many past lives and will continue to live beyond the death of the body. * Through the Scientology process of "auditing," people can free themselves of traumatic incidents, ethical transgressions and bad decisions which are said to collectively restrict the person from reaching the state of "Clear" and "Operating Thetan." Each state is said to represent the recovery of native spiritual abilities and to confer mental and physical benefits. * A person is basically good, but becomes "aberrated" by moments of pain and unconsciousness. * Psychiatry and psychology are destructive and abusive practices.
Scientology "psychburst" demonstration
Scientology's crusade against psychiatry might pick up some steam if psychiatry keeps inventing mental "diseases".
What were once signs of bad behavior has increasingly become uncontrollable "diseases" and "mental conditions". It could have something to do with how Medicaid pays for treatments, or it could be a sign of "defining deviancy down".
FAMOUS Scientologists
John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, Lisa Marie Presley, Jason Lee, Isaac Hayes, Tom Cruise, and Katie Holmes are among the Hollywood adherents of Scientology.
James Packer, formerly the richest man in Australia is another famous Scientologist.
CONTROVERSIES INVOLVING SCIENTOLOGY
* Scientology's disconnection policy, in which members are encouraged to cut off all contact with friends or family members considered "antagonistic."[146][147] * The death of a Scientologist Lisa McPherson while in the care of the Church. * Criminal activities committed on behalf of the Church or directed by Church officials (Operation Snow White, Operation Freakout) * Conflicting statements about L. Ron Hubbard's life, in particular accounts of Hubbard discussing his intent to start a religion for profit, and of his service in the military.[148] * Scientology's harassment and litigious actions against its critics encouraged by its Fair Game policy.[148] * Attempts to legally force search engines such as Google and Yahoo to omit any webpages critical of Scientology from their search engines (and in Google's case, AdSense), or at least the first few search pages
Scientology in the nutshell.
We don't know if it changed anyone's mind--one way or another--but one thing about it.
