I wonder though, who were those two Irish "fascists" who lost their lives? Not even worthy of having their names recorded? They fought for a cause they (not I) believed in, who can ask for more?                                                               

In my lifetime (born after the end of the SCW, just!) the Catholic Church in Ireland, and probably all around the world, was still praying for "the conversion of Russia" - a statement of fact, not a criticism.

One thing is certain: a guy that we have been discussing on another thread would, undoubtedly, have supported the "fascists": Sean South.
