Classeur : Anonymous vs. Scientology. Colorado Anonymous. Counterfeit Dreams: Introduction. From the Preface to the hardback edition of Counterfeit Dreams, available August 2010 This was not an easy book to write. For three years following my departure from the Church of Scientology, I was not able to write anything sensible about my experience. Then gradually, the onion layers of indoctrination started to peel off, one by one, and I began to get some distance and perspective.
I began writing my account as a blog, posting it chapter by chapter. I did this to put pressure on myself to continue writing, to finish the narrative. And partly to reach out to others who may have had similar experiences. I knew that I could never tell part of the story; it had to be the whole story or nothing. My blog account attracted an audience, and they kept the pressure on me to finish.
Once my blog account was completed, my readers and friends encouraged me to expand Counterfeit Dreams to book-length and publish it. As I often have to explain to people, I am not anti-Scientology.

Operation Freakout. Operation Freakout, also known as Operation PC Freakout, was a Church of Scientology covert plan intended to have the U.S. author and journalist Paulette Cooper imprisoned or committed to a mental institution. The plan, undertaken in 1976 following years of church-initiated lawsuits and covert harassment, was meant to eliminate the perceived threat that Cooper posed to the church and obtain revenge for her publication in 1971 of a highly critical book, The Scandal of Scientology. The Federal Bureau of Investigation discovered documentary evidence of the plot and the preceding campaign of harassment during an investigation into the Church of Scientology in 1977, eventually leading to the church compensating Cooper in an out-of-court settlement. Background[edit] Undeterred, Cooper expanded her article into a full-length book, The Scandal of Scientology (subtitled "A chilling examination of the nature, beliefs and practices of the "now religion.'"). 1976: Operation Freakout[edit] Notes[edit]
Paulette Cooper. Paulette Marcia Cooper (born July 26, 1942) is an American author who is best known for her activism against the Church of Scientology and the subsequent harassment she suffered from the Church. Cooper's books have sold close to a half a million copies.[1] Early life[edit] Cooper was born in Belgium to parents who died in the Auschwitz concentration camp. After the war, she spent years in various orphanages in Belgium, until she was adopted by the Cooper family and moved to the USA at age 6. At age 8, she became an American citizen.[2] She began her freelance writing career in 1968, after completing a master's degree in psychology.
Conflict with Scientology[edit] The Scandal of Scientology[edit] Cooper's conflict with the Church of Scientology began in 1970 when the Church filed suit against her in British court for an article she wrote that was published in London's Queen magazine. Harassment campaigns[edit] The Church finally agreed to an out-of-court settlement with Cooper in 1985.[8]
