Can anyone point me to something that will explain what "Krah-gate" was about, or what scandal put the 'gate' in Krah-gate?

I ask because everything I'm finding is very gadfly-ish and assumes the person already has background and knows all sorts of players, etc.

It is practically impossible to run an organization such as the SSPX, which stands for many things that go against Zionism and the global imposition of the Noachide laws as a replacement for Christianity, without having those people try to infiltrate it. In fact in the Jєωιѕн press the Traditional Catholic movement was singled out as a major threat to its aims, as far back as the 1980's and probably earlier.

For all we know the organization may already be infiltrated to a fatal degree (hence we watch the Bishop Fellay / Papal negotiations with great interest), but there are not many other better options at the moment than to support the SSPX. Some light reading for you:
