Scientology 'raids' held in nearly 100 cities

This a week old so I didn't post t as a breaking news article but since anonymous posted on here last night I thought people might want to read up on it.

THOUSANDS of internet users using the moniker "Anonymous" protested outside Church of Scientology buildings across the US and Europe today after protests in Australia yesterday.

Members of Anonymous, a loose collection of internet users who declared "war" on the church last month, claim to have staged demonstrations in almost 100 cities across four continents in the last 24 hours.

The number of protestors in cities including Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland, London, Manchester, Dublin, Stockholm, New York, Detroit and Washington were put at between 6000 and 8000 on an internet forum used by members of the group.

Yesterday around 150 people demonstrated outside the Church of Scientology in Sydney, while up to 200 attended a similar protest in Melbourne and 150 in Adelaide.
