...Germans have no hard evidence of criminality but an abiding fear of extremism in any form. The Christian Democrats call Scientology "totalitarian." A Social Democratic member of the Bundestag says it is "fascist." When a German delegation met with U.S. officials on the issue late last year, the Americans argued that if there is evidence of illegality, the Scientologists should be prosecuted under existing laws. The Germans replied that, well, there wasn't enough evidence for a trial, but even so, their government "has a responsibility to protect its citizens." Washington agrees that the lid should be kept on dangerous...
...yelping about my supposed fascist tendencies, Mr. Kaufman reminds me of those aging American Stalinists who attempt to taint anyone to their right as Nazis and still believe that communist traitors, such as the Rosenbergs, were innocent victims of the mythical "Red Scare." Or can I not mention anyone who is Jewish? --Christopher M. Griffith...

A third student, John Applebaum '97, also listed in the Kaufman article, wrote expressing his distaste for Kaufman's piece and his objection to being called a "fool" and "fascist" while at the same time defending the Griffith piece...

Curious and curiouser. Had the Communist propaganda about 1956 as the work of "fascist counter-revolutionaries" been right, after all? No: Nagy was not a fascist but a reformist communist, as were many of his followers. There is no doubt, however, that some of the 1956 "freedom fighters" were far to the right of Nagy, and some were probably admirers of Horthy. That is one reason why, in today's Hungary, it has become difficult to regard the 1956 revolution with the uncomplicated enthusiasm of pre-"Change" days. One young woman whose uncle disappeared in the October battles wrote...
