Ah yes, the IPS and the most cleverly named Communist front group since the ACLU and the People for the American Way, the Christic Institute. Are they still around? Who funds them now, Fidel?

Yep, they're still around. Here's one of their websites:

http://www.ips-dc.org/

I think they have other affiliates which may have other names/sites. I don't know who funds them, but it's a good question worth looking into.

The Christic Institute declared bankruptcy after losing its frivolous law suit against General Jack Singlaub and others when the Court awarded very large expenses against them for General Singlaub under Rule 11 for, among other things, the legal fees which he incurred. They did not want him to recover and thus went out of business rather than pay what they had been ordered to pay.

The reason for the name was to establish 501(c) credentials by being a "research" group. Thus the donations of the KGB and others could be effectively shifted in part to the U.S. taxpayer. Wonder why the IRS never challenged this? I wonder?

The IPS and its agents of influence nefarian ilk are dealt with in a marvelous book about heroes and villains: "The Spike."
