On Monday evening, 9 October, at approximately 7.00 pm, Malcolm 
Nothling, a veteran critic of the Church of Scientology, received a 
telephone call in Johannesburg, South Africa. He said the caller was 
male, and had a Zimbabwean (Rhodesian) accent. The caller said that 
based on the results of the Gerry Armstrong hearing, a planned action 
to bomb a Scientology Org (he did not specify which Org) was going to 
occur within the next ten days. He asked Malcolm if he wished to help 
with the planning of the operation.

Malcolm stated that while he can understand the way the person feels, 
he completely disassociates himself from this type of action, and 
does not support it in any way.

I immediately asked Malcolm if he had considered that this was 
possible entrapment, and he said no, he firmly believes the call was 
authentic. Malcolm has a sound knowledge of the intelligence community
in Southern Africa, and is able to judge for himself.

Malcolm asked that I relay this information to the Internet.

A new level of operation against Scientology is going to occur as a 
result of the Church's actions against its detractors. I feared this 
would happen, and I cannot be a part of it. I have resigned from the 
Board of Directors of FACTNET, and I withdraw from the conflict.
