I went there too and found a very well done site with many interesting
items, most of which are in either the Spanish, French or Portuguese
language. I did find an English homage to HPB and a different French article
titled 'HPB, a necessary rehabilitation,' which mentions Harrison's critique
of the Hodgson Report.

I also found two French articles taking position against racism. In one I
found the phrase "the unity of the [human] species destroys all racist
prejudice."  There was also a thoughtful article about the metaphysical
status of womanhood with an esoteric critique of feminism. This to show that
I did not find anything Nazi/fundamentalist about this site. Looking at its
programs and offered literature I have to conclude that the site seems to be
the product of a group of people with a genuine theosophical mindset.

Having said that I can indeed imagine an expelled lodge finding refuge in
this organization.

If anybody has hard evidence that this organization is different than what
it seems to be on its website I like to hear from him.
