This appeared in Brisbane's Courier-Mail too.  B&W picture, though.  It's
hilarious; a clam dressed up as the Statue of Liberty, holding a copy of
"What is Scientology?", and wearing what can only be described as either a
sanctimonious/outraged smile, or a dehydrated grimace.

The title of the article was: "Sect turns sights on German Government".

Fair use extract:

"It is widely accepted in Germany that the Los Angeles-based Scientology
 church is a cult or a business with totalitarian aims that intends to
 infiltrate the Government."

I note that they said "accepted" and not "believed".

Big Win(tm)!
