DECLARATION OF ANNE ROSENBLUM
REHABILITATION PROJECT FORCE
The RPF was created by LRH in 1974 for people who were in ethics trouble and not getting handled, as well as for the criminally insane.
The idea of the RPF is to "rehabilitate" people who are out-ethics or psychotic.
The rules of the RPF are:
1. No walking. You had to run all the time.
2. You were not allowed to speak to anyone outside the RPF.
3. You were not allowed to originate any communication to anyone outside the RPF.
4. You were not allowed to go anywhere by yourself...
5. You had to call all RPF seniors "Sir."
6. All letters you wrote ... The RPF MAA then read all out-going mail.
7. You are allowed only in "RPF designated areas"...
8. Had to wear dark blue boiler-suits or dark blue shirts and pants.
9. Were not allowed "luxuries" such as music, seeing T. V... anything like that.
10. There are penalties one gets for anything they do wrong ...
The penalties consist of doing so many laps, sit-ups or push-ups.
I find it very difficult to describe what happened to me mentally and emotionally in the RPF. I finally announced that if I didn't leave I would become insane. If I could sum the RPF up in just one sentence, it would probably be, "It is a process by which they make you believe that you are psychotic, and then you actually do become psychotic."
If it is true that RPF people are insane the correct tech for handling them is:
1. Plenty of rest and proper nutrition.
2. No harassment.
3. Mild sedatives if necessary.
4. Light auditing to coax them to come to present time.
Also, in light of the fact that a psychotic break is caused by a whole series of wrong indications, it sounds as though someone designed the RPF to DRIVE people insane.
Omitted Application of correct tech for handling insane people - LRH & RPF

The Guardian WW, Jane Kember, promotes Michael Meisner to Assistant Guardian for Information in the District of Columbia (A/G I DC). Meisner is responsible for all overt and covert intelligence investigations and operations. Duke Snider is Assistant Guardian for the District of Columbia (AG DC), the highest position in the local Guardian's Office, and is Meisner's immediate senior.
Stipulation of Evidence, U.S. District Court for Washington, D.C., Criminal #78-401, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA VS. MARY SUE HUBBARD, et. al.
Note:
The 4 principle Guardian's Office Bureaus were:
B-1 = Intelligence
B-2 = Public Relations
B-3 = Legal
B-4 = Finance
Intelligence was supposed to predict and handle all attacks before they happened.
If Intelligence failed to do that, then you try to PR your way out of the attack.
If PR failed to stop the attack, then you try to sue your way out of it.
If Legal fails to stop the attack, then you buy your way out of it.
The way Intelligence works is to infiltrate the enemy with agents and find their crimes and get them jailed. If you can't find any crimes, then set them up for one and get them jailed. For example, plant some drugs in their house and get them arrested for it. You also tried to cost them their source of income by getting them fired by using black intelligence operations on them.
All of this is an application of the Fair Game Law Policy which AUTHORIZES criminal activity. This PL says any Scientologist can do anything to an enemy of the church. It is a license to kill. Thus, the church Intelligence Bureau is constantly involved in committing crimes.
The Guardian's Office command channel is:
L. Ron Hubbard
Mary Sue Hubbard = Controller
Jane Kember = Guardian World Wide (GWW)
Mo Budlong = Deputy Guardian Intelligence World Wide (DGI WW)
Henning Heldt = Deputy Guardian United States (DG US)
Dick Weigand = Deputy Guardian Intelligence United States (DG I US)
Duke Snider = Assistant Guardian Washington DC (AG DC)
Michael Meisner = Assistant Guardian Intelligence Washington DC (AG I DC)
The above people and accomplices are about to commit crimes in carrying out the Snow White program. This will lead to an FBI raid on the church in July 1977 resulting in the above people and others going to jail, except for LRH.
The Snow White program called for correcting false reports in government files. Thus, the Intelligence Bureau received orders to infiltrate government offices with agents and obtain a copy of government agency files on LRH and the Church of Scientology.

Meisner rose quickly through the ranks. In January 1974, he was promoted by Kember to Assistant Guardian for Information in Washington, DC.
In her letter to Heldt, the Guardian had said the GO Legal Bureau had made Freedom of Information Act requests for certain documents, but because the legal approach took too long, B-1 should obtain them anyway. Meisner was given the job. Some Scientologists claim he was a government agent provocateur, who instigated the use of illegal tactics. As we've seen, infiltration and the theft of files was well underway before Meisner began his incredibly successful career. Also Meisner was junior to those who ordered the illegal activites and so they did not have to listen to him, it was their own choice to do illegal acts.
Meisner's orders came from the Guardian, and the theft of government files was an extension of the program written by Hubbard himself in New York in 1973. He had called it Operation Snow White.
Meisner initiated a "project" to obtain all Interpol files relating to Hubbard and Scientology which called for the Interpol National Bureau to be infiltrated by a Guardian's Office agent. The project was approved by Meisner's direct senior, Duke Snider, and Meisner assigned it to his B-1 Director, Mitchell Hermann. No immediate action was taken.

Mike McClaughry has finished his intelligence training at the United States Guardian's Office in Los Angeles. He obtains permission from Terry Milner (DG I US) to stay in Los Angeles to finish solo auditing up through OT 3. Terry Milner said Mary Sue was opposed to the idea but Mike persisted and finally got permission to do it.
Around this time, Terry Milner sent Paul and Joyce Elkins on a mission to Washington DC to obtain government agency files, such as the Department of Justice. Their cover was that they were making a derogatory film about Scientology. Their cover was semi-successful, being given some files by some government agencies but being refused for the most part by the various agencies.
Upon their return from Washington DC, with what little files their cover was able to obtain, they were sent to post in the San Francisco Intelligence bureau. Mike attested to OT 3 in February 1974 and also returned to post there.

Hal Puthoff is contacted by the Berkely police, requesting psychic assistance in the investigation into the disappearance of Patty Hearst. That afternoon, Puthoff and Pat Price meet with the police at Patty Hearst's apartment, where Price says it is not a kidnapping for money, but for political reasons. They go down to the police station, where Price picks out three photos from mug books, and associates the word "Lobo" (spanish for "wolf") with one of the men he has selected. (All three men Price picks are later confirmed to be members of the "Symbionese Liberation Army," which has kidnapped Hearst. The man with the "lobo" association turns out to be William Wolfe, a.k.a. "Willie the Wolf.")

Mike McClaughry arrives on post at San Francisco Org B-1 (intelligence).
There are existing orders to do on the Snow White program. We were to obtain the Scientology files maintained by the Yolo County District Attorney's Office. We were also to obtain State government files in Sacramento, California - such as the State Attorney General's office.
Paul Elkins tried to get these files with his cover of making an anti-Scientology movie - but got very little that way. After that failed, we only used illegal means to get files. No one ordered it that way, that was just our solution and our seniors wanted the files badly enough that they did not reprimand us for using illegal methods. One thing that was clear from seniors - we HAD to comply to the order to get the files, no excuses accepted.

A new CIA program, jointly funded by Office of Research and Development (ORD) and Office of Technical Services (OTS) is begun at SRI. Apparently, Kenneth Kress is the author of the program ...

Dr. Jose Delgado testifies before Congress: "We need a program of psychosurgery for political control of our society. The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. The individual may think that the most important reality is his own existence, but this is only his personal point of view. This lacks historical perspective. Man does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. We must electrically control the brain. Some day armies and generals will be controlled by electric stimulation of the brain."

Note:
A New York Times article told the story of Delgado demonstrating the technology for controlling behavior with an electrical device implanted in the brain. Delgado implanted such a device in the brain of a bull and then controlled the bull's actions with a remote controller he held in his hand.

GO 1087 LRH 6 March 1974 Strategic Info
The following quote from "The Shadow War, Resistance in Europe, 1939-45" is of value in handling the existing scene. Psychiatrists urged these measures on Hitler and carried them out.
David Rockefeller is priding himself on having reduced US population to a decline and arrested the human population explosive by sterilization, abortion and other measures.
The Rockefellers financed the German beginnings of psychiatry.
Special attention is drawn to the last sentence in the quote as it confirms current strategic planning.
"In two speeches early in 1942 Hitler announced that the Jews would be annihilated. The method adopted was to construct gas chambers camouflaged as shower baths in certain camps in Poland - the main one was at Birkenau; to these were attached giant crematoria in which the bodies were burnt. The number of Jews rounded up all over Europe and carted to the 'death camps' is estimated at six million.
The death of the Jews was in no way necessary to ensure the victory of Nazi Germany; this hideous crime was entirely gratuitous. Its gigantic proportions were only realized after the war, though Polish Resistance had managed to contact certain deportees and pass information to its government in London. The warnings and threats issuing from the BBC made no difference to the murderer's determination. With hindsight, however, it is clear that in the eyes of European Resistance this massacre more than anything else legitimized, indeed sanctified, their action".
Incorrectly included mass murder & suppression of mankind -
Rockefeller, Psychiatrists, and Nazis

Write-up of 1 May 1974 (This write up is in the Intelligence Bureau hat)
One trick used by professionals is, after the casing has been completed and the plan decided on, a series of cover stories are mocked up to cover each stage of the operation in the event that the operation is blown at any point. On occasion cover stories are mocked up to cover being caught in the act. It is sometimes to the advantage of the agent and the organization, if the police believe that the agent was actually breaking in for money or goods, rather than documents or files.
Tools and equipment have always been a problem to agents in any operation because the standard lock picking devices; crowbars; sledgehammers and hacksaws and standard items used for breaking into a place are easily recognized by the police. Therefore an agent will usually try instead to obtain a key to the place he wants to enter beforehand or find a method of entry that does not require the use of instruments and tools. As this is not always possible an agent will attempt to avoid detection by carrying his tools for as short a time as possible? or disguise the tools in some way ...
Best way of preventing being caught at a later date is of course to ensure that no one finds out that anything ever happened in the first place. In other words copy the files and return them. Obviously gloves would also be used when the documents are copied and in the subsequent operation to return the documents.
Note from Mike McClaughry:
The above write up is instructions to Intelligence operatives on how to do Breaking & Entering, written under the guise of being information on how to defend the church from it. The author was Mo Budlong, DGI WW.

July 1970]), are killed in a shootout with police at a house in Los Angeles. Patty Hearst's remains are not found in the burned-out remains of the house. She is considered to be alive, and a warrant for her arrest is issued by the FBI.

Guardian Order 1206 of 22 June 1974 The Snow White Programme
For the past year there has been a massive programme in operation in the Guardian Office and on Flag. This programme was written by the Commodore who called it "Snow White".
The purpose of the programme is to trace back the attacks of the past 24 years to find and handle their SOURCE. Doing this will actually mean the running out of the 4th Dynamic engram spoken of by the Commodore in his 1967 Journal and in his "Welcome to the Sea Org" tapes.
In actual fact the Snow White Programme has the HIGHEST PRIORITY OF ALL GO ACTIVITY. The reason for this is as follows:
In its day to day activities the Guardian Office handles hundreds of situations that might impede the forward progress of Scientology. It is a kind of outpoint/correct type of activity. However, the Snow White Programme is going right to the source of most of the problems the GO is handling...
Let's all get together on Snow White and push it through hard, hard, hard! It will open the doors wide for the full CLEARING OF THE PLANET.

Hubbard decided to head for the Americas, and it was announced that the Apollo was sailing for Buenos Aries. More subterfuge, as she was actually set for Charleston, South Carolina, by way of Bermuda.
The Scientologists have it that a spy aboard the Apollo alerted the U.S. government of her true destination. According to the Scientologists, the welcoming party waiting there included agents from the Immigration Office, the Drug Enforcement Agency, U.S. Customs, and the Coast Guard, along with several U.S. Marshals who were to arrest Hubbard, and deliver a subpoena for him to appear in an Internal Revenue Service case. 16
Just beyond the territorial limit, the Apollo caught wind of this reception committee, and, radioing that she was sailing for Nova Scotia, changed course for the West Indies. The Apollo then cruised the Caribbean.

The Scientologists had heard from their lawyers that there would be a meeting to discuss Scientology litigation there on November 1.
On the appointed day, Alverzo and Hermann went into the Chief Counsel's Office before the meeting, and installed an electronic bug. They taped the proceedings via a car FM receiver. Then Hermann went back into the office (on the fourth floor), and retrieved the bug.

Writeup 2 December 1974 (This write up is part of the Intelligence Bureau hat)
Obtaining property in a deceitful way is fraud. So using a cover and a false name to obtain property is fraud. Information is, however, not considered property. To stay inside the law, a professional will ask for a loan of files or documents, photostat, xerox or photograph these and return the original. In this case, the property -paper- has not been stolen or obtained by fraud even if the data has. The same holds true if a professional enters a building without permission and removes files or documents.
A professional avoids breaking and entering (B&E) as much as possible and uses this only as a last resort. When (and if) a professional does resort to B&E, he will use due thought and consideration. This whole subject is covered in detail in the writeup of 1 May 1974 Re: Security and Theft of Materials. This writeup covers how the real professional handles being caught in the act of stealing and how to handle the police.
When a professional is being questioned, he will remember carefully all those mannerisms on the part of the interrogators which are hostile to his person. If the professional has reason to believe that there is a danger to his person, this is an assault.
Under such circumstances, anything said can be later explained away as being said under duress and threat.
Depending on the circumstances a professional will attempt to get the person who's questioning him to threaten him or even (very seldom) to strike him. A bruise which is visible will convince anyone that he, the professional, was under duress.

c. 10 December 1974
Mike McClaughry is called to USGO to be sent on a mission to get the files on Scientology held by the World Federation of Mental Health. The other missionaire's name is Spencer, I believe from St Louis org intelligence bureau.
Don Alverzo and Joe Lisa brief the two missionaires. Spencer has a cover of being a Time magazine reporter, complete with Time magazine credentials and letterhead to prove it. The WFMH headquarters are in Trinidad and Tobago. We were to go there and see if Spencer can get the files with his cover. If not, Mike was to obtain them illegally.
We were specifically told - "Do not come back here without the files. Use any method necessary, Watergate-style tape on the door, crowbars, a sledgehammer, whatever it takes to get the files." Mike took this to mean we were expelled if we did not get the files, so don't come back. That's how much intention was put there to get them. Don't even come back if you don't get them.
Mike and Spencer then went to WFMH headquarters and found it to be a compound surrounded by barbed wire electric fencing and patrolled by armed guards with police dogs. Mike said, "Oh this is just great. And we can't go back without the files. I can just see myself rotting in a prison in a foreign land with no hope of getting out."
Spencer went in and used his cover on the President of the WFMH. He learned that the Presidency of the WFMH had just changed hands to someone in Canada and therefore the WFMH files, including their file on Scientology, had been shipped to Canada. They no longer had them in Trinidad and Tobago. I let out a huge sigh of relief and we returned to USGO in Los Angeles, where we debriefed and were sent immediately to Canada to get the WFMH files there.
