The Popular Orthodox Rally claims to defy traditional ideological characterizations.Karatzaferis has stated that he supports "patriotism and social solidarity, taking from all ideologies and personalities I like.He remains the only Greek politician to have made such a statement, although maintaining that he denounced "the blood, the .The Popular Orthodox Rally has claimed to have included Jewish, Muslim, immigrant, and homosexual candidates on the LAOS ticket alongside communists and moderate nationalists.Efi Sarri have announced their dedication to homosexual rights, a move that has further alienated the nationalist faction of the party.The party's spokesman has been accused of advertising and marketing nationalist and supreme court lawyer Konstantinos Plevris's book "Jews, the whole truth", as recently as this year.Observers have noted that the Communist Party of Greece was losing votes to LAOS just before, for the first time in its history, it joined the Hellenic Parliament.On the issue of economic policy, he supports drastic tax cuts for both businesses and individuals; specifically, he supports the idea that companies generating less than 200,000 euros per year should be exempt from paying taxes, and that couples earning under 15,000 euros (per year) should also be exempt from paying taxes.He supports liberalizing higher education by implementing a program that spends roughly 15 percent of the state budget towards improving education, suggesting this program would lead to the creation of a university in every Greek prefecture.Karatzaferis has now begun opposing the European Constitution on the grounds that "the United States controls the European Union."He maintains that he is in support of the confederation model for the European Union as allowing for strong national voices to be heard.On the issue of the Macedonia naming dispute, Karatzaferis is against recognition of a neighbouring state under any nomenclature that includes the term Macedonia.He currently does not have an established programme on the issue of the environment.Members of the party feel that such events help Greek students develop a sense of remembrance and respect to those who have sacrificed themselves for freedom.According to Ios Press, however, Karatzaferis years earlier had challenged "Mr.Pope and the Jews are conspiring against Greece" and suggested that "the Jews" were responsible for the September 11, 2001 attacks.Teleasty (which is owned by the party leader).Nazis for "not ridding Europe of Jewish Zionism."Golden Dawn party, in the guise of his earlier Front Line party.Greek congressmen are passive homosexuals with Albanian stallions."Along with voting for the "European Parliament resolution on homophobia in Europe," Karatzaferis has himself met with homosexual activists and given interviews to homosexual magazines in which he has claimed to believe "two adults should be able to freely live together and their relationship include certain legal recognition" and that "homophobia must be fought".Another controversy erupted when singer and LAOS candidate Efi Sarri stated "I want all the young sexy girls and boys, foreigners, and homosexuals with me.Specifically for my gay friends, I will try to guarantee safeguards of their property, when one of the two dies, through the achievement of civil marriages or some contract".According to sources with Eleftheros Kosmos, the telephone centers of Tileasty and LAOS were flooded with thousands of indignant callers.This motion, videotaped by a television station, predictably caused a stir in Greek public discourse and the media (uniformly describing the gesture as either a fascist or a Nazi salute).Later on, Karatzaferis claimed that he had not seen the Roman salute, and accused rival parties (specifically, New Democracy) of "planting" the person in order to discredit his party.The Greek press has implied that the man could not be unrelated to LAOS because those present at the convention wore name tags.Karatzaferis did not disclose the identity of the offender he accused of acting as an "agent provocateur."Marie Le Pen's party, but more populist in character".Eleftheros Typos, 27 October 2002."Karatzaferis Cut 'Orthodox' From His Party.""The KKE Candidates of Karatzaferis."Press Release: The President of LAOS Mr.
