        Ewww! This one is HIGHLY confidential.

        A definition is confidential? What could be the reason behind making a _definition_ of "intelligence" confidential? Is Intelligence a key to Scientology's profitability? How can a 501(c)(3) (non-profit) organization have profits?

        Could this document have been declared highly confidential in an attempt to hide what Hubbard and Scientology are doing?

      :            25 February 1968.  Issued as an OSA NW Order
      :            on 5 February 1988.)
      


        The original date of issue is during the era of the Guardian office (before the Snow White Trials in 1979). This proves that Hubbard dictated Guardian Office orders, despite Scientology's claims to its members (and the U.S. Government) that Suppressive Persons [radicals outside of Scientology's control] infiltrated the Guardian Office and were responsible for Snow White.

        Miscavige, his lawyers, and his Public Relations representatives said that all Guardian Orders were "cancelled", so naturally the cult has to reissue many as OSA NW Orders. Simple, really. Keep the "tech". Just rename it something else to go with the illusion that the criminals (GO staff) were ousted, and the "off-source tech" issues (Guardian Orders) were cancelled. In parallel, rename the GO the "Office of Special Affairs". It's semantics, that's all -- an "acceptable" truth.

        The later issue date is after Hubbard's death in 1984. This proves that Scientology did not disband the Guardian's Office, despite Scientology's claims to the contrary. In reality, both GO and OSA are the same Scientology entity, internally named Division 20. This GO despatch[sic] has been recycled into an OSA Network Order - clear proof that OSA rose from the ashes of the G.O.

      :    Hubbard defines "intelligence" as "the process of informing one's command
      : area" of the plans, characteristics and crimes of one's opponents._
      


        Why does a church have "command areas"? Why does a church's "command areas" need to be informed of "crimes" and plans and characteristics of their "opponents"? For that matter, why would a church have "opponents" in the first place?

        Hubbard is operating a military organization under the cloak of religion. It is not "religious bigotry" to oppose a para-military organization.

        Hubbard issues GO orders.

      : 
      : 
      : 				     Adopted as official
      : 				     Church policy by
      : 				     CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY
      : 				     INTERNATIONAL
      


        Why does a "church" need an official policy regarding "intelligence"?

        This line describes the Scientology management hierarchy:

        1. L. Ron Hubbard dictates to the Church of Scientology International.
        2. CSI dictates to Jane Kember (?) [Worldwide Guardian or head of G.O.].
        3. jk dictates to "ta", who is probably the person charged with typesetting this OSA Network Order. Note: typographical errors appear in the original.

        Hubbard is clearly controlling the actions of the Guardian's Office, despite Scientology's claims to the contrary during the Snow White trial. Hubbard also controlled the Office of Special Affairs.

        Wow(tm). It's unpublished. It's copyrighted. If the LRH Library wants to show me the original, I'll take this down. I hope it isn't sealed in a titanium capsule filled with inert gas.

        I am dubious of the copyright for two reasons.

        1. The original "despatch" was written in 1968, back when copyrights had a limited life. One cannot copyright something that is in the public domain.
        2. The work is not "unpublished" - the Network Order was distributed to Senior Executives and the entire OSA Investigations Section. The original "despatch" is highly likely, given the content, to have been seen by the GO Investigations Section as well.
        The provisions for unpublished works in the copyright law was not meant for hiding a work under a rock in perpetuity. The LRH Library uses this designation for legal harrassment; it is just one more charge which the hapless defendant must address and adds to the cost of litigation. Hubbard said "the purpose of the lawsuit is to harrass", not to win. Scientology extracts punishment from its victims by forcing them to pay exorbitant legal fees to defend themselves.
