On numerous occasions, WL accused workers of being 'territorial' or 'regional'. In some cases it was probably true, in other cases it wasn't. Probably many of LC leaders are guilty as charged, but who was the real instigator of all of this? Who was it that headed this campaign?

I will start off by saying of all the brothers Watchman Nee disciple, why is it Witness Lee found himself on his own? I think in part he wasn't willing to have peers.
All the territorial talk was scripted to make himself unrivaled from any brother. In defense of the territorial accusations, what do you expect? In the 1980's if you were in Anaheim, you would be helped by the ministry of Al Knoch, John Ingalls, etc. If you were in San Diego, it was John Smith. If you were in San Bernardino, it was Francis Ball. These brothers weren't territorial. They were serving the localities where they lived.
Perhaps all the territorial talk was an inferiority complex? The brothers and sisters refer so and so's speaking over mine.
