CULTS AND FASCISM

09-04-2004 11:45

The Left has largely distanced itself from anti cult activism. The Right has no such reservations about the cult question, indeed it frequently sees 'closed' movements as natural allies. An Australian based cult provides an example of the links to the far right.

Support the popular uprising of the Iraqi people!

09-04-2004 10:37
