Hi Dave,
Here the date of creation in:
http://membres.lycos.fr/tussier/firephim.htm#article5
Fait à STRASBOURG, le 17 Décembre 1992
I have a book written by a JW on this subject but he didn't mention that JW were part of it. We know by the status of this association that no JW were in the ruler of this association but JW could be a simple member of it, an association has no legal obligation to declare its members.
Firephim was a kind of syndicate of cult to promote their "religious liberty", making contact with the french's senat or the french's assembly. When it was notorious that this association was a gathering of cult, they have stopped their lobbying but perhaps this association is not destroyed.
This is Cesnur, that has replaced the Firephim and the association "Omnium des libertés", both has been not constituted by members of cult, but one by a catholic's sociologist, Massimo Introvigne, another by a medecin who think that he is persecuted by the french's government. Both association fight for scientology, Moon, JW and other cults and have contact with them.
The scientology has build several association on the religious freedom 's ground and publish a newspaper, in it, a JW's attorney has written few article.
So we can conclude easily that in Europe and particularly in France, JW has collaborate with scientology directly or indirectly by the Cesnur.
I am sure that we can find a quote in Watchtower telling that there are dangerous cult in the world. Unfortunatelly, JW are collaborating with the most dangerous cult regarding democratic and republican's ground, the Scientology.
Bye
