This is my reply to
post #23:
Mgr. Fellay, is a traitor, either a sellout or a mole right from the begin.
If Fellay is really a traitor, I hope his treachery is recent and not from the beginning.
According to the recent book about GREC, it seems +Fellay countenanced this since the 1990s.
Yes, GREC shows the sell-out to Newrome is a long-term operation which didn't start in 2000 or 2007. Like Neil said in another topic, there will probably be more ECs handling the GREC subversion. But already the latest EC is very interesting, see its introduction :
EC 294, 2 March 2013, GREC I.
Just over one year ago was published in France a little book of some 150 pages which has to be a big embarrassment for the leaders of a certain religious Society, because it shows how their promotion of union with the Newchurch goes back many years, at least to the 1990’s. Of course if they are proud of that promotion, they will feel no embarrassment, but if they have for many years been disguising that promotion, then let at least readers of the little book open their eyes.

Sorry I'm so late in responding to this.
Quo Vadis Petre provides the transcript
here to a recent conference Fr. Pfeiffer
gave in Brazil on January 25th A.D. 2013:
...Now they are telling us not to look at what Bishop Fellay is doing today, but to look at all the beautiful things he has done over the last eighteen years. When we look over those last eighteen years we discover it's not so beautiful, like, for example, what is now coming out in public : this Groupe de Réflexion Entre Catholiques (Reflection Group Between Catholics), or GREC. This group started in Paris, in 1997. Four SSPX priests were involved. Firstly, Father Lorans, to whom Bishop Fellay gave the permission. Father Lorans was once the superior at the seminary at Econe and he now runs the Dici website. Then there was Father Celier and Father Du Chalard. Father Du Chalard was one of our priests in Rome and he is friends with many cardinals, and has been one of our principle contacts with Rome for more than twenty years. He was thrown out by the 'Si Si No No' sisters because he was too liberal. And lastly, the priest who wrote the book "Towards a Necessary Reconciliation", about, and promoted by, GREC: Father Lelong. Father Lelong founded GREC alongside Father Lorans. He said
Father Du Chalard had been a continual support, though secretly. What is the purpose of this group? They want to reconcile the SSPX and Rome using the principles of Vatican II. So in applying the principles of Vatican II to SSPX, the key phrase, admitted by GREC is the 'Light of Tradition'...
When +W touches on the same topic 5 weeks later, it seems he is picking up
some slack. I expect +W has noticed, by his correspondence and interaction
with Catholics the world over, that this concept is not being appreciated. He
sees that there is a weakness, a failure in the thinking of Catholics today to
see the truth, the truth that is not "Internet rumor" or gossip, or presumption,
but truth that the perpetrators themselves have proclaimed.
+W asks that "the readers open their eyes."
Fr. Du Chalard has been SECRETLY promoting this 'deal' with modernist Rome
since the inception of GREC, which means since 1997.
"Of course if they are proud of that promotion, they will feel no embarrassment, but if they have for many years been disguising that promotion, then let at least readers of the little book open their eyes." And 5 weeks before +W writes this in his "forbidden ECs" Fr. Pfeiffer has already
given the 'goods' to the monks in Brazil.
But meanwhile, Catholic mothers and fathers here in the USA are blithely
making plans to send their sons off to Winona expecting the "same old
traditional formation" that would have been proffered 20 years ago.
Mothers and Fathers, please: OPEN YOUR EYES.
