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.

Yes, the misspelling "WILFUL" appears in the original.

: [Hubbard suggests that government employees, in his experience, often "don't know their own codes and laws" and might very well claim one is breaking a law which doesn't exist.] 

Hubbard grants his Scientology adherents the right to ignore government employees' notices of law violation because "they don't know their own codes and laws." This is important if you are skirting the edge of the law and your volunteer espionage force has a case of the jitters. In case their operatives are caught doing something illegal, Scientology will disavow its operatives, much in the same manner that Mary Sue Hubbard was disavowed.

: [Hubbard warns against underestimating the "criminality" of some government
: agencies.] 

Once again for emphasis, ... the criminality of certain government agencies. Hubbard's twisted concept of Ethics allowed him to make this outrageous generalization. Hubbard's personal code, learned from Aleister Crowley, was "do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law." Continually skirting the intent if not the letter of the law, Hubbard undoubtedly encountered "many instances" of attacks against Hubbard or Scientology (which was "criminality" according to his Ethics).

:[According to Hubbard, all government allegations should be considered "suspect". 

Hubbard often used a style of single-sentence paragraphs. Perhaps Hubbard used this style to e-m-p-h-a-s-i-z-e   e-v-e-r-y   t-h-o-u-g-h-t. Perhaps Hubbard, in a holdover from his previous career as a penny-a-word sci-fi writer, couldn't be bothered to back up and edit for readability. Another possibility is that Hubbard had difficulty grouping his thoughts into a coherent paragraph that didn't meander like a small stream on a flat plain - putting one sentence in each paragraph solves this coherency problem.

Hubbard instructs OSA to question every government allegation. Taken with The Genus of Insane Governments , Hubbard wants his intelligence operatives to look for reasons why they should ignore government allegations of illegal behavior.

It is Official Church Policy:

• to assume "certain government agencies" are criminal.
• to find ways to ignore government allegations.

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.

This OSA Network Order is the only one in this collection which contains the additional initials "pp". This would indicate that the "ta" found in other Network Orders is in a supervisory position. Another possibility is that "ta" was promoted during the time period in which these Network Orders were being generated.
