Among the flood of displaced persons that washed across Germany after WWII were a large number of perpetrators, particularly from Eastern Europe.

A large number of these Holocaust perpetrators arrived in Australia where they not only remained unrepentant but established new fascist networks. In this episode, I talk with Jayne Persian about these fascists in exile in Australia.
