Cults response to Anonymous
"TRANSCRIPT for the hard of hearing.
Hello, leaders of Anonymous. We are the Church of Scientology.
In the preceding weeks, you have come to our attention. Your campaign of hate. Your promulgation of bigotry. Your direct attacks on members of our faith. All of these things have caught our eye.
With the rise of your latest propaganda video into mainstream circulation, one thing has become clear. You represent a threat to us and our interests. We have therefore decided that you must be destroyed.
Despite your claims, it is clear your numbers are small. You consist of a loose band of small time hackers, child pornographers, schoolyard terrorists, and Internet bullies. You claim that for each of you who falls, ten more will rise to take his place. This is false. Do you seriously expect that a band of teenagers can destroy the Church of Scientology?
You post your plans on public repositories of criminal information. You call our centers from traceable numbers. You perpetrate denial of service attacks from your home computers. And we are watching.
You condemn the generous donations the faithful make to support our Church. Be aware that these donations have funded a private security apparatus which is matched by no other Church. For years we have endured persecution at the hands of bigots. Your suppressive activities are more of the same. And they will not be tolerated.
711chan has already fallen. Ebaumsworld.com. Partyvan.info. 4chan.org. 420chan.org. These sites are next. And taking them down will not be difficult. United States and international law enforcement has already expressed serious interest in what is posted on these sites. We have showed them every manner of illegal obscenity and filth as well as your plans to attack us. We are archiving everything.
With the help of these law enforcement agencies, we will find the identities of those who use these sites as a base for criminal activity.
When you, the members of Anonymous, see your leaders taken into custody, you will flee. No others will rise to take your place. Your movement will splinter and fall before us.
Religion is free.
Transcendence is free.
We are the Church of Scientology. Expect us."
