the Knights of Malta , new world order
here is some of them you may know
Now
you have the evidence
in pictures. Secretly a Roman Catholic, Prince Bernhard initiates Dutch
Queen Beatrix as an “Honorary Commander” into the Order of Malta
on June 19, 1959, in TheHague.
Behind and on the left
is the Queen
Mother Juliana and a sister of Beatrix,
Princess Irene. The Maltese
Cross, with four Nazi “Suavastikas” (not “Swastikas” evidenced by the direction of the tips of each
broken cross) pictured below, is the Spanish
Cross, awarded primarily to Luftwaffe pilots who participated in the Spanish
Civil War (1936-1939). Hitler’s alter ego, German Knight of Malta Franz
von Papen, promoted Nazi support in fighting the “Spanish
Communists,” the republican
nationalists having expelled the Jesuits
from Spain in 1932. Thus,the oversight of the Nazis
by the German
Knights is evident in the message of the medal. The rule of the Pope of Rome
over the Bilderbergers—founded
by Knight Bernhard—is fulfilled by his Knights of Malta
and occult, Jesuit Spiritual Coadjutors advising the Knights.

and Director of Central Intelligence.
Bush was born in Milton, Massachusetts, to Senator Prescott Bush and Dorothy Walker Bush. Following the attacks on Pearl Harbor in 1941, at the age of 18, Bush postponed going to college and became the youngest aviator in the US Navy at the time.[1] He served until the end of the war, then attended Yale University.

H. W. Bush's father, Prescott, and his maternal grandfather,
George Herbert (Bert) Walker, were investigated in involvement
of their financing of Adolf Hitler. After being caught twice,
eventually the government forced Bush to sell. The family
profited, it is thus beleived this is the origin of the entire
Bush fortune.
KNIGHT OF MALTA George W. Bush
George Walker Bush born July 6, 1946) is an American politician
who served as the 43rd President of the United States from 2001
to 2009. Before that he was the 46th Governor of Texas, serving
from 1995 to 2000.
Bush is the eldest son of President George H. W. Bush, who served as the 41st President, and Barbara Bush, making him one of only two American presidents to be the son of a preceding president,[5] after John Quincy Adams. He is also the brother of Jeb Bush, former Governor of Florida.
After graduating from Yale University in 1968 and Harvard Business School in 1975, Bush worked in oil businesses. He married Laura Welch in 1977 and ran unsuccessfully for the House of Representatives shortly thereafter. He later co-owned the Texas Rangers baseball team before defeating Ann Richards in the 1994 Texas gubernatorial election. In a close and controversial election, Bush was elected President in 2000 as the Republican candidate, defeating Vice President Al Gore in the Electoral College.[6] He was named Time Person of the Year 2000 and 2004.
Early on, the Bush administration withdrew from a number of international treaty processes, notably the Kyoto Protocol on global warming.[7] A series of terrorist attacks occurred eight months into Bush's first term as president on September 11, 2001. In response, Bush announced a global War on Terror, ordered an invasion of Afghanistan that same year and an invasion of Iraq in 2003. In addition to national security issues, Bush promoted policies on the economy, health care, education, and social security reform. He signed into law broad tax cuts,[8] the No Child Left Behind Act, the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, and Medicare prescription drug benefits for seniors. His tenure saw national debates on immigration, Social Security, electronic surveillance, waterboarding and other "enhanced interrogation techniques".
Bush successfully ran for re-election against Democratic Senator John Kerry in 2004, in another relatively close election. After his re-election, Bush received increasingly heated criticism from across the political spectrum.[9][10][11] In 2005, the Bush Administration dealt with widespread[12][13] criticism over its handling of Hurricane Katrina.[14] Following this and other controversies, as well as dissatisfaction with the direction of the Iraq War, Democrats won control of Congress in the 2006 elections.[15] As the U.S. entered its longest post–World War II recession in December 2007,[16][17] the Bush Administration took more direct control of the economy, enacting multiple economic programs intended to preserve the country's financial system. Though Bush was popular in the U.S. for much of his first term,[18] his popularity declined sharply during his second term.[19][20][21][22] He was a highly controversial figure internationally, with public protests occurring even during visits to close allies, such as the United Kingdom.[23]

KNIGHT OF MALTA Silvio Berlusconi
He is the second longest-serving Prime Minister of Italy, after
Benito Mussolini. He held this position on three separate
occasions: from 1994 to 1995, from 2001 to 2006 and currently
since 2008. Technically, Berlusconi has been sworn in four times
because after a cabinet reshuffle, as happened with Berlusconi
in 2005, the new ministry is sworn in and subjected to a vote of
confidence. He is the leader of the People of Freedom political
movement, a centre-right party he founded in 2009. As of
November 2009, he is the longest-serving current leader of a G8
country. As of 2011, Forbes magazine has ranked him as the 118th
richest man in the world with a net worth of US$7.8 billion.[1]
Berlusconi's political rise was rapid and surrounded by controversy. He was elected as a Member of Parliament for the first time and appointed as Prime Minister following the March 1994 parliamentary elections, when Forza Italia gained a relative majority a mere three months after having been officially launched. However, his cabinet collapsed after seven months, due to internal disagreements in his coalition. In the April 1996 snap parliamentary elections, Berlusconi ran for Prime Minister again but was defeated by centre-left candidate Romano Prodi. In the May 2001 parliamentary elections, he was again the centre-right candidate for Prime Minister and won against the centre-left candidate Francesco Rutelli. Berlusconi then formed his second and third cabinets, until 2006.

KNIGHT OF MALTA Michael Rubens Bloomberg
Michael Rubens Bloomberg (born February 14, 1942) is the current
Mayor of New York City, and the 13th richest person in the
United States, having net worth of $18.1 billion in 2011.[3] He
is the founder and 88% owner of Bloomberg L.P., a financial news
and information services media company.[4][5][6]
A lifelong Democrat before seeking elective office, Bloomberg switched his registration in 2001 and ran for mayor as a Republican, winning the election that year and a second term in 2005. He left the Republican Party over policy and philosophical disagreements with national party leadership in 2007 and ran for his third term in 2009 as an independent candidate. He was frequently mentioned as a possible independent candidate for the 2008 presidential election, which fueled further speculation when he left the Republican Party.[7] There was also speculation that he would run as a vice-presidential candidate.[8] Bloomberg did not, however, seek the presidency nor was he selected as a running mate by any of the presidential candidates.
In the fall of 2008, Bloomberg successfully campaigned for an amendment to New York City's term limits law, in order to allow him to run for a third term in 2009. Bloomberg won the election on November 3, 2009.[9]

KNIGHT OF MALTA Tony Blair
Anthony Charles Lynton Blair (born 6 May 1953)[1] is a former
British Labour Party politician who served as the Prime Minister
of the United Kingdom from 2 May 1997 to 27 June 2007. He was
the Member of Parliament (MP) for Sedgefield from 1983 to 2007
and Leader of the Labour Party from 1994 to 2007. He resigned
from all of these positions in June 2007.
Tony Blair was elected Leader of the Labour Party in the leadership election of July 1994, following the sudden death of his predecessor, John Smith. Under his leadership, the party adopted the term "New Labour"[2] and moved away from its traditional left wing position towards the centre ground.[3][4] Blair subsequently led Labour to a landslide victory in the 1997 general election. At 43 years old, he became the youngest Prime Minister since Lord Liverpool in 1812. In the first years of the New Labour government, Blair's government implemented a number of 1997 manifesto pledges, introducing the minimum wage, Human Rights Act and Freedom of Information Act, and carrying out regional devolution, establishing the Scottish Parliament, the National Assembly for Wales, and the Northern Ireland Assembly.
Blair's role as Prime Minister was particularly visible in foreign and security policy, including in Northern Ireland, where he was involved in the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. From the start of the War on Terror in 2001, Blair strongly supported the foreign policy of US President George W. Bush, notably by participating in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and 2003 invasion of Iraq. Blair is the Labour Party's longest-serving Prime Minister, the only person to have led the Labour Party to three consecutive general election victories, and the only Labour Prime Minister to serve consecutive terms more than one of which was at least four years long.
He was succeeded as Leader of the Labour Party on 24 June 2007 and as Prime Minister on 27 June 2007 by Gordon Brown.[5] On the day he resigned as Prime Minister, he was appointed the official Envoy of the Quartet on the Middle East. In May 2008, Blair launched his Tony Blair Faith Foundation.[6] This was followed in July 2009 by the launching of the Faith and Globalisation Initiative with Yale University in the USA, Durham University in the UK and the National University of Singapore in Asia to deliver a postgraduate programme in partnership with the Foundation.[7][8]

KNIGHT OF MALTA Jeb Bush
John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is a prominent member of the Bush family: the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush; the younger brother of former President George W. Bush; and the older brother of Neil Bush, Marvin Bush and Dorothy Bush Koch.
In November 1977, he was sent to the Venezuelan capital of Caracas to open a new operation for the bank. Bush spent about two years there, working in international finance. He eventually worked for the bank's executive program.
Following the 1980 presidential election, Bush and his family moved to Miami-Dade County, Florida. He took a job in real estate with Armando Codina, a 32-year-old Cuban immigrant and self-made American millionaire. Codina had made a fortune in a computer business, and then formed a new company, IntrAmerica Investments Inc., to pursue opportunities in real estate.
During Bush's years in Miami, he was involved in many different entrepreneurial pursuits, including working for a mobile phone company, serving on the board of a Norwegian-owned company that sold fire equipment to the Alaska oil pipeline, becoming a minority owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, buying a shoe company that sold footwear in Panama, and getting involved in a project selling water pumps in Nigeria.
Codina eventually made Bush his partner in a new development business, which quickly became one of South Florida's leading real estate development firms. As a partner, Bush received 40% of the firm's profits.
In 1990, Bush interceded with his father, the president, to pardon Orlando Bosch, a Cuban exile whom Attorney General Dick Thornburgh called an "unrepentant terrorist." Bosch was released from prison and granted residency in the U.S.[5]

ROYAL JESUITICAL KNIGHT OF MALTA King Juan Carlos
pictured with jesuit trained george
Juan Carlos I (baptized as Juan Carlos Alfonso Víctor María de
Borbón y Borbón-Dos Sicilias; born 5 January 1938) is the
reigning King of Spain.[3]
On 22 November 1975, two days after the death of dictator Francisco Franco, Juan Carlos was designated king according to the law of succession promulgated by Franco. The Spanish throne had been vacant for 38 years in 1969 when Franco named Juan Carlos as the next head of state.[4] The Spanish Constitution of 1978, voted in referendum, acknowledges him expressly as King of Spain. The Spanish Constitution, Title II: the Crown, Article 56, Subsection 1, affirms the role of the Spanish monarch as the personification and embodiment of the Spanish nation, a symbol of Spain's enduring unity and permanence; and as such, the monarch is the head-of-state and commander-in-chief of the Spanish Armed Forces in a system known in Spanish as "monarquía parlamentaria" (parliamentary monarchy).[5][6]
King Juan Carlos successfully oversaw the transition of Spain from dictatorship to parliamentary democracy.
Juan Carlos married Sophia of Greece and Denmark in 1962. The couple have three children and eight grandchildren.
Polls from 2000 show that he is widely approved of by Spaniards.[7] According to the Spanish Constitution, the monarch is also instrumental in promoting Ibero-American relations, the "nations of its historical community".[5][6] In this capacity, the King of Spain serves as the president of the Ibero-American States Organization, representing over 700,000,000 people in 24 member nations worldwide. In 2008 he was considered the most popular leader in all Ibero-America.[8]
In March 1956, Juan Carlos's younger brother Alfonso died in a gun accident at the family's home Villa Giralda in Estoril, Portugal. The Spanish Embassy in Portugal issued an official communiqué:[9]
Whilst His Highness Prince Alfonso was cleaning a revolver last evening with his brother, a shot was fired hitting his forehead and killing him in a few minutes. The accident took place at 20.30 hours, after the Infante's return from the Maundy Thursday religious service, during which he had received holy communion.
Very quickly, however, rumours appeared in newspapers that the gun had actually been held by Juan Carlos at the moment the shot was fired. Josefina Carolo, dressmaker to Juan Carlos's mother, said that Juan Carlos pointed the pistol at Alfonso and pulled the trigger, unaware that the pistol was loaded. Bernardo Arnoso, a Portuguese friend of Juan Carlos, also said that Juan Carlos fired the pistol not knowing that it was loaded, and adding that the bullet ricocheted off a wall hitting Alfonso in the face. Helena Matheopoulos, a Greek author who spoke with Juan Carlos's sister Pilar, said that Alfonso had been out of the room and when he returned and pushed the door open, the door knocked Juan Carlos in the arm causing him to fire the pistol.[10]

The Spanish Constitution, Title II: the Crown, Article 56, Subsection 1, affirms the role of the Spanish monarch as the personification and embodiment of the Spanish nation, a symbol of Spain's enduring unity and permanence; and as such, the monarch is the head-of-state and commander-in-chief of the Spanish Armed Forces in a system known in Spanish as "monarquía parlamentaria" (parliamentary monarchy).[5][6]
King Juan Carlos successfully oversaw the transition of Spain from dictatorship to parliamentary democracy.
Juan Carlos married Sophia of Greece and Denmark in 1962. The couple have three children and eight grandchildren.
Polls from 2000 show that he is widely approved of by Spaniards.[7] According to the Spanish Constitution, the monarch is also instrumental in promoting Ibero-American relations, the "nations of its historical community".[5][6] In this capacity, the King of Spain serves as the president of the Ibero-American States Organization, representing over 700,000,000 people in 24 member nations worldwide. In 2008 he was considered the most popular leader in all Ibero-America.[8]
In March 1956, Juan Carlos's younger brother Alfonso died in a gun accident at the family's home Villa Giralda in Estoril, Portugal. The Spanish Embassy in Portugal issued an official communiqué:[9]
Whilst His Highness Prince Alfonso was cleaning a revolver last evening with his brother, a shot was fired hitting his forehead and killing him in a few minutes. The accident took place at 20.30 hours, after the Infante's return from the Maundy Thursday religious service, during which he had received holy communion.
Very quickly, however, rumours appeared in newspapers that the gun had actually been held by Juan Carlos at the moment the shot was fired. Josefina Carolo, dressmaker to Juan Carlos's mother, said that Juan Carlos pointed the pistol at Alfonso and pulled the trigger, unaware that the pistol was loaded. Bernardo Arnoso, a Portuguese friend of Juan Carlos, also said that Juan Carlos fired the pistol not knowing that it was loaded, and adding that the bullet ricocheted off a wall hitting Alfonso in the face. Helena Matheopoulos, a Greek author who spoke with Juan Carlos's sister Pilar, said that Alfonso had been out of the room and when he returned and pushed the door open, the door knocked Juan Carlos in the arm causing him to fire the pistol.[10]

JESUIT ALUMNI TRAINED KNIGHT OF MALTA Bill Clinton
William Jefferson "Bill" Clinton (born William Jefferson Blythe
III; August 19, 1946)[1] is an American politician who served as
the 42nd President of the United States (1993–2001). Before
that, he was Governor of the state of Arkansas. Inaugurated at
age 46, he was the third-youngest president. He took office at
the end of the Cold War, and was the first president of the baby
boomer generation.[2] His wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, has
served as the United States Secretary of State since January 21,
2009, and was Senator from New York from 2001 to 2009. Both
Clintons received Juris Doctor (J.D.) degrees from Yale Law
School.
Clinton has been described as a New Democrat.[3] Some of his policies, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and welfare reform, have been attributed to a centrist Third Way philosophy of governance, while on other issues his stance was left of center.[4][5][6] Clinton presided over the continuation of the longest period of peacetime economic expansion in American history.[7][8][9] The Congressional Budget Office reported a budget surplus in 2000, the last full year of Clinton's presidency.[10] After a failed attempt at health care reform, Republicans won control of the House of Representatives in 1994, for the first time in forty years.[11] Two years later, in 1996, Clinton was re-elected and became the first member of the Democratic Party since Franklin D. Roosevelt to win a second full term as president.[12] Later he was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice in connection with a scandal involving a White House intern, but was subsequently acquitted by the U.S. Senate and served his complete term of office.[13][14]
Clinton left office with the highest end-of-office approval rating of any U.S. president since World War II.[15] Since then, he has been involved in public speaking and humanitarian work. Based on his philanthropic worldview,[16] Clinton created the William J. Clinton Foundation to promote and address international causes such as treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS and global warming.
In 2004, he released his autobiography My Life, and was involved in his wife Hillary's 2008 presidential campaign and subsequently in that of President Barack Obama. In 2009, he was named United Nations Special Envoy to Haiti.[17] In the aftermath of the 2010 Haiti earthquake, Clinton teamed with George W. Bush to form the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund.

Travelgate controversy
Main article: White House travel office controversy
Clinton fired seven employees of the White House Travel Office in May 1993, causing a controversy even though the Travel Office staff served at the pleasure of the President and could be dismissed without cause. The White House responded to the controversy by claiming that the firings were done because of financial improprieties that had been revealed by a brief FBI investigation. Critics contended the firings had been done to allow friends of the Clintons to take over the travel business and that the involvement of the FBI was unwarranted.

White House FBI files controversy
The White House FBI-files controversy of June 1996 arose concerning improper access by the White House to FBI security-clearance documents. Craig Livingstone, head of the White House Office of Personnel Security, improperly requested, and received from the FBI, background report files without asking permission of the subject individuals; many of these were employees of former Republican administrations. In March 2000, Independent Counsel Robert Ray determined that there was no credible evidence of any criminal activity. Ray's report further stated, "there was no substantial and credible evidence that any senior White House official was involved" in seeking the files.[66]

Ray's report further stated, "there was no substantial and credible evidence that any senior White House official was involved" in seeking the files.[66]
Numerous military events occurred during Clinton's presidency.
The Battle of Mogadishu also occurred in Somalia in 1993. During
the operation, two U.S. MH-60 Black Hawk helicopters were shot
down by rocket-propelled grenade attacks to their tail rotors,
trapping soldiers behind enemy lines. This resulted in an urban
battle that killed 18 American soldiers, wounded 73 others, and
one was taken prisoner. There were many more Somali casualties.
Some of the American bodies were dragged through the streets – a
spectacle broadcast on television news programs. In response,
U.S. forces were withdrawn from Somalia and later conflicts were
approached with fewer soldiers on the ground.
In 1995, U.S. and NATO aircraft attacked Bosnian Serb targets to halt attacks on U.N. safe zones and to pressure them into a peace accord. Clinton deployed U.S. peacekeepers to Bosnia in late 1995, to uphold the subsequent Dayton Agreement.
In response to the 1998 al-Qaeda bombings of U.S. embassies in East Africa that killed a dozen Americans and hundreds of Africans, Clinton ordered cruise missile strikes on terrorist targets in Afghanistan and Sudan. He was subsequently criticized when it turned out that a pharmaceutical plant in Sudan (originally alleged to be a chemical warfare plant) had been destroyed.

To weaken Saddam Hussein's grip of power, Clinton signed H.R.
4655 into law on October 31, 1998, which instituted a policy of
"regime change" against Iraq, though it explicitly stated it did
not speak to the use of American military forces.[94][95] The
administration then launched a four-day bombing campaign named
Operation Desert Fox, lasting from December 16 to December 19,
1998. For the last two years of Clinton's presidency, U.S.
aircraft routinely attacked hostile Iraqi anti-air installations
inside the Iraqi no-fly zones.
Clinton's November 2000 visit to Vietnam was the first by a U.S. President since the end of the Vietnam War.[96] Clinton remained popular with the public throughout his two terms as President, ending his presidential career with a 65% approval rating, the highest end-of-term approval rating of any President since Dwight D. Eisenhower.[97] Further, the Clinton administration signed over 270 trade liberalization pacts with other countries during its tenure.[98] On October 10, 2000, Clinton signed into law the U.S.–China Relations Act of 2000, which granted PNTR trade status to People's Republic of China.[99] The president asserted that free trade would gradually open China to democratic reform.[100] Clinton also oversaw a boom of the U.S. economy. Under Clinton, the United States had a projected federal budget surplus for the first time since 1969.[101]
After initial successes such as the Oslo accords of the early 1990s, Clinton attempted to address the Arab-Israeli conflict. Clinton brought Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat together at Camp David.[34] Following the peace talk failures, Clinton stated Arafat "missed the opportunity" to facilitate a "just and lasting peace." In his autobiography, Clinton blames Arafat for the collapse of the summit.[19][102] The situation broke down completely with the start of the Second Intifada.[34]

Whitewater controversy
The Whitewater controversy was an American political controversy that began with the real estate dealings of Bill and Hillary Clinton and their associates Jim and Susan McDougal in the Whitewater Development Corporation, a failed business venture in the 1970s and 1980s.
In November 1993, David Hale, the source of criminal allegations against Bill Clinton in the Whitewater affair, alleged that Clinton, while governor of Arkansas, pressured him to provide an illegal $300,000 loan to Susan McDougal, the partner of the Clintons in the Whitewater land deal.[103]
A U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission investigation did result in convictions against the McDougals for their role in the Whitewater project, but the Clintons themselves were never charged, and Clinton maintains innocence in the affair.
Attempted capture of Osama bin Laden
Capturing Osama bin Laden had been an objective of the United States government from the presidency of Bill Clinton until bin Laden's assassination in 2011.[104] It has been asserted that in 1996 while the Clinton Administration had begun pursuit of the policy, the Sudanese government allegedly offered to arrest and extradite Bin Laden as well as to provide the United States detailed intelligence information about growing militant organizations in the region, including Hezbollah and Hamas,[105] and that U.S. authorities allegedly rejected each offer, despite knowing of bin Laden's involvement in bombings on American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.[105]
However, the 9/11 Commission found that although "former Sudanese officials claim that Sudan offered to expel Bin Laden to the United States", "we have not found any reliable evidence to support the Sudanese claim."[106]
In 1998, two years after the warning, the Clinton administration ordered several military missions to capture or kill bin Laden that failed.[107]
Troopergate
Main article: Troopergate (Bill Clinton)
Troopergate is the popular name of a scandal involving allegations by two Arkansas state troopers that they arranged sexual liaisons for then-Governor Bill Clinton. The allegations by state troopers Larry Patterson and Roger Perry were first reported by David Brock in the American Spectator in 1993, then confirmed the next day in the Los Angeles Times. The story mentioned a woman named Paula, a reference to Paula Jones. Brock later apologized to Clinton, saying the article was politically motivated "bad journalism" and that "the troopers were greedy and had slimy motives."[108]

KNIGHT OF MALTA JESUIT TRAINED Heinrich Himmler
picture shows Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler with A. Hitler and Nazi supremacist aryan army.
Heinrich Luitpold Himmler 7 October 1900 – 23 May 1945) was
Reichsführer of the SS, a military commander, and a leading
member of the Nazi Party. As Chief of the German Police and
later the Minister of the Interior, Himmler oversaw all internal
and external police and security forces, including the Gestapo
(Secret State Police). Serving as Reichsführer and later as
Commander of the Replacement (Home) Army and General
Plenipotentiary for the entire Reich's administration
(Generalbevollmächtigter für die Verwaltung), Himmler rose to
become one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany as well as
one of the persons most directly responsible for the
Holocaust.[1][2][3]
As overseer of the concentration camps, extermination camps, and Einsatzgruppen (literally: task forces, often used as killing squads), Himmler coordinated the killing of some six million Jews, between 200,000 and 500,000 Roma,[4][5] many prisoners of war, and possibly another three to four million Poles, communists, or other groups whom the Nazis deemed unworthy to live or simply "in the way", including homosexuals, people with physical and mental disabilities, Jehovah's Witnesses and members of the Confessing Church. Shortly before the end of the war, he offered to surrender both Germany and himself to the Western Allies if he were spared prosecution. After being arrested by British forces, he committed [suicide] before he could be questioned.

Shortly before the end of the war, he offered to surrender both Germany and himself to the Western Allies if he were spared prosecution. After being arrested by British forces, he committed [suicide] before he could be questioned.
On 20 April 1934, Göring formed a partnership with Himmler and
Heydrich. Göring transferred authority over the Gestapo (Geheime
Staatspolizei)—the Prussian secret police—to Himmler, who was
also named chief of all German police outside Prussia. On 22
April 1934, Himmler named Heydrich the head of the Gestapo.
Heydrich continued as head of the SD, as well.[17]
On 17 June 1936, Himmler was named Chief of German Police after Hitler announced a decree that was to "unify the control of Police duties in the Reich".[18] Traditionally, law enforcement in Germany had been a state and local matter. In this role, Himmler was nominally subordinate to Interior Minister Wilhelm Frick. However, the decree effectively merged the police with the SS, making it virtually independent of Frick's control.
Himmler gained authority as all of Germany's uniformed law enforcement agencies were amalgamated into the new Ordnungspolizei (Orpo: "order police"), whose main office became a headquarters branch of the SS. Despite his title, Himmler gained only partial control of the uniformed police. The actual powers granted to him were some that were previously exercised by the ministry of the interior. It was only in 1943, when Himmler was appointed Minister of the Interior, that the transfer of ministerial power was complete.
With the 1936 appointment, Himmler also gained ministerial authority over Germany's non-political detective forces, the Kriminalpolizei (Kripo: crime police), which he merged with the Gestapo into the Sicherheitspolizei (SiPo: security police) under Heydrich's command, thus gaining operational control over Germany's entire detective force.[19] This merger was never complete within the Reich, with Kripo remaining mainly under the control of its own civilian administration and later the party apparatus (as the latter annexed the civilian administration). However, in occupied territories not incorporated into the Reich proper, SiPo consolidation within the SS line of command proved mostly effective. In September 1939, following the outbreak of World War II, Himmler formed the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (RSHA: Reich Main Security Office) wherein the SiPo (Gestapo and Kripo) along with the Sicherheitsdienst (SD: security service) became departments under Heydrich's command therein.[20]

Himmler oversaw the entire concentration camp system. Once World War II began, however, new internment camps, which were not formally classified as concentration camps, were established over which Himmler and the SS did not exercise control. In 1943, following the outbreak of popular word-of-mouth criticism of the regime as a result of the Stalingrad disaster, the party apparatus, professing disappointment with the Gestapo's performance in deterring such criticism, established the Politische Staffeln (political squads) as its own political policing organ, breaking the Gestapo's monopoly in this field.
The SS during these years developed its own military branch, the SS-Verfügungstruppe (SS-VT), which later evolved into the Waffen-SS. Even though nominally under the authority of Himmler, the Waffen-SS developed a fully-militarized structure of command and operationally were incorporated in the war effort parallel to the Wehrmacht. Many contemporary commentators refuse to recognize the Waffen-SS as an honorable military organisation. Its units were involved in notorious incidents of murdering civilians and unarmed prisoners. This was one of many reasons that the International Military Tribunal declared the SS to be a criminal organization.

JESUIT ALUMNI TRAINED KNIGHT OF MALTA J Edgar Hoover
John Edgar Hoover (January 1, 1895 – May 2, 1972) was the first
Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the
United States. Appointed director of the Bureau of
Investigation—predecessor to the FBI—in 1924, he was
instrumental in founding the FBI in 1935, where he remained
director until his death in 1972. Hoover is credited with
building the FBI into a large and efficient crime-fighting
agency, and with instituting a number of modern innovations to
police technology, such as a centralized fingerprint file and
forensic laboratories.
Late in life, and after his death, Hoover became an increasingly controversial figure. His critics have accused him of exceeding the jurisdiction of the FBI.[1] He used the FBI to harass political dissenters and activists, to amass secret files on political leaders,[2] and to collect evidence using illegal methods.[3] It is because of Hoover's long and controversial tenure that FBI directors are now limited to 10-year terms.[4]

COINTELPRO years
Main article: COINTELPRO
In 1956, Hoover was becoming increasingly frustrated by Supreme Court decisions that limited the Justice Department's ability to prosecute people for their political opinions, most notably, Communists. At this time he formalized a covert "dirty tricks" program under the name COINTELPRO.[18]
This program remained in place until it was revealed to the public in 1971, and was the cause of some of the harshest criticism of Hoover and the FBI. COINTELPRO was first used to disrupt the Communist Party, and later organizations such as the Black Panther Party, Martin Luther King, Jr.'s SCLC and others. Its methods included infiltration, burglaries, illegal wiretaps, planting forged documents and spreading false rumors about key members of target organizations and flooding L.A. with drugs.[19] Some authors have charged that COINTELPRO methods also included inciting violence and arranging murders.[20] In 1975, the activities of COINTELPRO were investigated by the "United States Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities" called the Church Committee after its chairman, Senator Frank Church (D-Idaho) and these activities were declared illegal and contrary to the Constitution.[21] Hoover amassed significant power by collecting files containing large amounts of compromising and potentially embarrassing information on many powerful people, especially politicians. According to Laurence Silberman, appointed Deputy Attorney General in early 1974, FBI Director Clarence M. Kelley thought such files either did not exist or had been destroyed. After The Washington Post broke a story in January 1975, Kelley searched and found them in his outer office. The House Judiciary Committee then demanded that Silberman testify about them.
In 1956, several years before he targeted King, Hoover had a public showdown with T.R.M. Howard, a civil rights leader from Mound Bayou, Mississippi. During a national speaking tour, Howard had criticized the FBI's failure to thoroughly investigate the racially motivated murders of George W. Lee, Lamar Smith, and Emmett Till. Hoover wrote an open letter to the press singling out these statements as "irresponsible."

Hoover wrote an open letter to the press singling out these statements as "irresponsible."
JESUIT TRAINED KNIGHT OF MALTA Heinz Kissinger / Henry Kissinger
Henry Alfred Kissinger born May 27, 1923[2]) is a German-born
American political scientist, diplomat, and recipient of the
Nobel Peace Prize. He served as National Security Advisor and
later concurrently as Secretary of State in the administrations
of Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. After his term, his
opinion was still sought by many following presidents and many
world leaders.
A proponent of Realpolitik, Kissinger played a dominant role in United States foreign policy between 1969 and 1977. During this period, he pioneered the policy of détente with the Soviet Union, orchestrated the opening of relations with the People's Republic of China, and negotiated the Paris Peace Accords, ending American involvement in the Vietnam War. Various American policies of that era, including the bombing of Cambodia, remain controversial.
Kissinger is still a controversial figure today.[3] He was honored as the first recipient of the Ewald von Kleist Award of the Munich Conference on Security Policy and currently serves as the chairman of Kissinger Associates, an international consulting firm.

Controversy:
Christopher Hitchens, the British-American journalist and author, is highly critical of Kissinger. In The Trial of Henry Kissinger, Hitchens calls for the prosecution of Kissinger 'for war crimes, for crimes against humanity, and for offenses against common or customary or international law, including conspiracy to commit murder, kidnap, and torture.'[72][73][74][75] A documentary based on Hitchens' book The Trials of Henry Kissinger was released in 2002.

KNIGHT OF MALTA Thabo Mbeki
Thabo Mvuyelwa Mbeki; born 18 June 1942) is a South African
politician who served almost two terms as the second
post-apartheid President of South Africa from 14 June 1999[2] to
24 September 2008.[3] He is also the brother of Moeletsi Mbeki.
On 20 September 2008, he announced his resignation after being
recalled by the African National Congress's National Executive
Committee,[4] following a conclusion by Judge Nicholson of
improper interference in the National Prosecuting Authority
(NPA), including the prosecution of Jacob Zuma for
corruption.[5] On 12 January 2009, the Supreme Court of Appeal
unanimously overturned Judge Nicholson’s judgment[6][7][8] but
the resignation stood.
Thabo Mbeki was the executive face of government in South Africa from 1994. During his time in office the economy grew at an average rate of 4.5% per annum. Mbeki created employment in the middle sectors of the economy and oversaw a fast growing black middle class with the implementation of BEE. This growth exacerbated the demand for trained professionals strained by emigration due to violent crime, but failed to address unemployment amongst the unskilled bulk of the population. He attracted the bulk of Africa’s Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and made South Africa the focal point of African growth. He was the architect of NEPAD whose aim is to develop an integrated socio-economic development framework for Africa.[9] He also oversaw the successful building of economic bridges to BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) nations with the eventual formation of the India-Brazil-South Africa (IBSA) Dialogue Forum to "further political consultation and co-ordination as well as strengthening sectoral co-operation, and economic relations".[10]
Mbeki has mediated in difficult and complex issues on the African continent including Burundi, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the Ivory Coast, and some important peace agreements. He oversaw the transition from the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) to the African Union (AU). His 'quiet diplomacy' in Zimbabwe, however, is blamed for protracting the survival of Robert Mugabe's regime at the cost of thousands of lives and intense economic pressure on Zimbabwe's neighbours. He became a vocal leader of the Non-Aligned Movement in the United Nations and while leveraging South Africa's seat on the Security Council,[11] agitating for reform of the Security Council.[12]
Mbeki has received worldwide criticism for his AIDS stance. He questions the link between viruses and AIDS and believes that the correlation between poverty and the AIDS rate in Africa was a challenge to the viral theory of AIDS. His fate was not helped by Health Minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang and the overhaul of the pharmaceutical industry in South Africa. The delay in distributing antiretroviral drugs is attributed to the ban he placed on their use in public state hospitals, and is also linked to the estimated deaths of some hundreds of thousands. Thabo Mbeki has also been criticized for responding on negative comments made about governance by accusing them of racism.[13]

JESUITICAL KNIGHT OF MALTA Nelson Mandela
Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela born 18 July 1918)[1] served as
President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999, and was the first
South African president to be elected in a fully representative
democratic election. Before his presidency, Mandela was an
anti-apartheid activist, and the leader of Umkhonto we Sizwe,
the armed wing of the African National Congress (ANC). In 1962
he was arrested and convicted of sabotage and other charges, and
sentenced to life in prison. Mandela served 27 years in prison,
spending many of these years on Robben Island. Following his
release from prison on 11 February 1990, Mandela led his party
in the negotiations that led to multi-racial democracy in 1994.
As president from 1994 to 1999, he frequently gave priority to
reconciliation.
In South Africa, Mandela is often known as Madiba, his Xhosa clan name; or as tata (Xhosa: father).[2] Mandela has received more than 250 awards over four decades, including the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize.

Allegations
Ayob, George Bizos and Wim Trengove were trustees of the Nelson Mandela Trust, which was set up to hold millions of rands donated to Nelson Mandela by prominent business figures, including the Oppenheimer family, for the benefit of his children and grandchildren.[155] Ayob later resigned from the Trust. In 2006, the two remaining trustees of the Nelson Mandela Trust launched an application against Ayob for disbursing money from the trust without their consent.[156] Ayob claimed that this money was paid to the South African Revenue Service, to Mandela's children and grandchildren, to Mandela himself, and to an accounting company for four years of accounting work.[153]
Bizos and Trengrove refused to ratify the payments to the children and grandchildren of Nelson Mandela and the payments to the accounting firm. A court settlement was reached in which this money, totalling over R700,000 was paid by Ismail Ayob to the trust on the grounds that Ayob had not sought the express consent of the other two trustees before disbursing the money.[157] It was alleged that Ayob made defamatory remarks about Mandela in his affidavit, for which the court order stated that Ayob should apologise.[158] It was pointed out that these remarks, which centred on Nelson Mandela holding foreign bank accounts and not paying tax on these, had not originated from Ayob's affidavit but from Nelson Mandela's and George Bizos's own affidavits.[159]
Blood Diamond controversy
In a The New Republic article in December 2006, Nelson Mandela was criticised for a number of positive comments he had made about the diamond industry. There were concerns that this would benefit suppliers of blood diamonds.[160] In a letter to Edward Zwick, the director of the motion picture Blood Diamond, Mandela had noted that:
...it would be deeply regrettable if the making of the film inadvertently obscured the truth, and, as a result, led the world to believe that an appropriate response might be to cease buying mined diamonds from Africa. ... We hope that the desire to tell a gripping and important real life historical story will not result in the destabilisation of African diamond producing countries, and ultimately their peoples.[161]
The New Republic article claims that this comment, as well as various pro-diamond-industry initiatives and statements during his life and during his time as a president of South Africa, were influenced by both his friendship with Harry Oppenheimer, former chairman of De Beers, as well as an outlook for 'narrow national interests' of South Africa (which is a major diamond producer).[162]
Zimbabwe and Robert Mugabe
Robert Mugabe, the president of Zimbabwe who has led the country since independence in 1980, has been widely criticised internationally for the 1980s fighting which killed about 3000 people as well as corruption, incompetent administration, political oppression and cronyism that has ultimately led to the economic collapse of the country.[163][164]
Despite their common background as national liberators, Mandela and Mugabe were seldom seen as close. Mandela criticised Mugabe in 2000, referring to African leaders who had liberated their countries but had then overstayed their welcome.[165][166] In his retirement, Mandela spoke out less often on Zimbabwe and other international and domestic issues,[125] sometimes leading to criticism for not using his influence to greater effect to persuade Mugabe to moderate his policies.[167] His lawyer George Bizos revealed that Mandela has been advised on medical grounds to avoid engaging in stressful activity such as political controversy.[168] Nonetheless, in 2007, Mandela attempted to persuade Mugabe to leave office "sooner than later", with "a modicum of dignity", before he was hounded out like Augusto Pinochet. Mugabe did not respond to this approach.[169] In June 2008, at the height of the crisis over the Zimbabwean presidential election, Mandela condemned the "tragic failure of leadership" in Zimbabwe.[170]

JESUITICAL KNIGHT OF MALTA
President Ronald E Reagan
Ronald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911–June 5, 2004) was the
40th President of the United States (1981–1989), the 33rd
Governor of California (1967–1975) and prior to that, an actor.
Reagan was born in Tampico in Whiteside County, Illinois, reared in Dixon in Lee County, Illinois, and educated at Eureka College in Eureka, Illinois, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics and sociology. Upon his graduation, Reagan first moved to Iowa to work as a radio broadcaster and then in 1937 to Los Angeles, California. He began a career as an actor, first in films and later television, appearing in over 50 movie productions and earning enough success to become a famous, publicly recognized figure. Some of his most notable roles are in Knute Rockne, All American and Kings Row. Reagan served as president of the Screen Actors Guild, and later spokesman for General Electric (GE); his start in politics occurred during his work for GE. Originally a member of the Democratic Party, he switched to the Republican Party in 1962. After delivering a rousing speech in support of Barry Goldwater's presidential candidacy in 1964, he was persuaded to seek the California governorship, winning two years later and again in 1970. He was defeated in his run for the Republican presidential nomination in 1968 as well as 1976, but won both the nomination and election, defeating incumbent Jimmy Carter in 1980.
As president, Reagan implemented sweeping new political and economic initiatives. His supply-side economic policies, dubbed "Reaganomics," advocated reducing tax rates to spur economic growth, controlling the money supply to reduce inflation, deregulation of the economy, and reducing government spending. In his first term he survived an assassination attempt, took a hard line against labor unions, and ordered military actions in Grenada. He was reelected in a landslide in 1984, proclaiming it was "Morning in America." His second term was primarily marked by foreign matters, such as the ending of the Cold War, the 1986 bombing of Libya, and the revelation of the Iran-Contra affair. Publicly describing the Soviet Union as an "evil empire,"[1] he supported anti-Communist movements worldwide and spent his first term forgoing the strategy of détente by ordering a massive military buildup in an arms race with the USSR. Reagan negotiated with Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev, culminating in the INF Treaty and the decrease of both countries' nuclear arsenals.
Reagan left office in 1989. In 1994, the former president disclosed that he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease earlier in the year; he died ten years later at the age of 93. He ranks highly in public opinion polls of U.S. Presidents, and is a conservative icon.

JESUIT TRAINED KNIGHT OF MALTA Nelson Rockefeller
Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller (July 8, 1908 – January 26, 1979) was
the 41st Vice President of the United States (1974-1977),
serving under President Gerald Ford, and the 49th Governor of
New York (1959-1973), as well as serving the Roosevelt, Truman,
Eisenhower and Nixon administrations in a variety of positions.
He was also a noted businessman, art collector, and
philanthropist.
Rockefeller, a Republican, was relatively liberal and his views were often generally close to those of the opposing Democratic Party. In his time, moderates in Republican party were called Rockefeller Republicans. As Governor of New York from 1959 to 1973 his achievements included the expansion of the State University of New York, efforts to protect the environment, the building of the Nelson A. Rockefeller Empire State Plaza in Albany, increased facilities and personnel for medical care, and creation of the New York State Council on the Arts. After unsuccessfully seeking the Republican presidential nomination in 1960, 1964, and 1968, he served as Vice President (under the 25th Amendment) from 1974 to 1977 under President Gerald R. Ford, but did not join the 1976 Republican national ticket with President Ford, marking his retirement from politics.
As a businessman he was President and later Chairman of Rockefeller Center, Inc., and he formed the International Basic Economy Corporation in 1947. Rockefeller assembled a significant art collection and promoted public access to the arts. He served as trustee, treasurer, and president, of the Museum of Modern Art, and founded the Museum of Primitive Art in 1954. In the area of philanthropy, he established the American International Association for Economic and Social Development in 1946, and with his four brothers he founded the Rockefeller Brothers Fund in 1940 and helped guide it.

serve as Vice President of the United States. Rockefeller's top
competitor had been George H.W. Bush.
KNIGHT OF MALTA David Rockefeller
David Rockefeller, Sr. (born June 12, 1915) is the current
patriarch of the Rockefeller family. He is the youngest and only
surviving child of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. and Abby Aldrich
Rockefeller, and the only surviving grandchild of oil tycoon
John D. Rockefeller, founder of Standard Oil. His five siblings
were Abby, John D. III, Nelson, Laurance and Winthrop.
n 1946, Rockefeller became the family's first and only banker
when he joined the staff of the longtime family-associated Chase
National Bank ("the Rockefeller Bank"). The chairman at that
time was his uncle Winthrop Aldrich, the son of the powerful
U.S. Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, and the brother of Rockefeller's
mother, Abby Aldrich. Chase National subsequently became the
Chase Manhattan Bank in 1955, and is now called JPMorgan Chase.
He started as an assistant manager (the lowest officer rank) in the Foreign Department, which financed international trade in a number of commodities, such as coffee, sugar and metals; it also maintained relationships with more than 1,000 correspondent banks throughout the world. He worked his way up through the ranks (but was never a teller and never made a loan), becoming president in 1960. He was chairman and chief executive of Chase Manhattan from 1969 to 1980 and chairman until 1981. He was also, as recently as 1980, the single largest individual shareholder of the bank, holding 1.7% of its shares.[11]
The Chase was primarily a wholesale bank, dealing with other prominent financial institutions and major corporate clients such as General Electric (which had, through its RCA affiliate, leased prominent space and become a crucial first tenant of Rockefeller Center, rescuing that major project in 1930). The bank also is closely associated with and has financed the oil industry, having longstanding connections with its board directors to the successor companies of Standard Oil, especially Exxon Mobil. It was only through the 1955 merger that the bank shifted significantly into consumer banking.
In 1954, Rockefeller became chairman of the committee charged with deciding the location of the bank's new headquarters. The following year his decision to erect the building in the Wall Street area was accepted; it was subsequently seen as a decision that directly revived the City's downtown financial district. In 1960 the headquarters was completed under his direction at One Chase Manhattan Plaza, on Liberty Street in downtown Manhattan, directly across from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. At 60 stories, it was at that time the largest bank building in the world; it also had, five floors below ground, the largest bank vault then in existence.
The Chase Bank's principal competitor — then and now — was National City Bank of New York (later First National City Bank), now Citibank, a division of the holding company Citigroup. Ironically, National City had a long association with the Rockefeller family through James Stillman, a director of the Bank, and David's great-uncle William Rockefeller, Standard Oil's finance manager, who was recruited to the Bank's board by Stillman from 1884 onwards. The Bank then became enriched by its association with the Standard Oil empire, to the point where it was nicknamed the Oil Bank.[12]
When Stillman and William Rockefeller's children later intermarried they became the Stillman Rockefellers and a descendant, James Stillman Rockefeller, subsequently became chairman of Citibank from 1959, at about the same time as David became Chase president in 1960.
In the 1960s Rockefeller and other businessmen formed the Chase International Advisory Committee (IAC) — which in 2005 consisted of twenty-eight prominent and respected businessmen from 19 nations throughout the world, many of whom were his personal friends; he was subsequently to become chairman until he retired from that position on the IAC in 1999. After the J. P. Morgan merger, this committee was renamed the International Council, and contains prominent figures such as Henry Kissinger, Riley P. Bechtel (of the Bechtel Group), Andre Desmarais, Lee Kuan Yew and George Shultz, the current chairman. Historically, prominent figures on the IAC have included Gianni Agnelli (a longtime associate, who spent thirty years on the Committee), John Loudon (Chairman of Royal Dutch-Shell), C. Douglas Dillon, David Packard and Henry Ford II.[13]
Under his stewardship the Chase spread internationally and became a central pillar in the world's financial system, including being the leading bank for the United Nations. It has a global network of correspondent banks that has been estimated to number about 50,000, the largest of any bank in the world. A notable achievement was the setting up of the first branch of an American bank at One Karl Marx Square, near the Kremlin, in the then Soviet Union, in 1973. This was also the year Rockefeller traveled to China, resulting in his bank becoming the National Bank of China's first correspondent bank in the United States.
Before becoming Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Paul Volcker worked for Chase. Volcker has had a long association with Rockefeller, becoming a member of the Trust Committee of the family in 1987, after stepping down from his position at the Reserve. The Trust Committee is the pivotal committee which controls the wealth of the family through trusts established by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., as well as the real estate firm that then owned Rockefeller Center, before it was sold.[14]

Historically, prominent figures on the IAC have included Gianni Agnelli (a longtime associate, who spent thirty years on the Committee), John Loudon (Chairman of Royal Dutch-Shell), C. Douglas Dillon, David Packard and Henry Ford II.[13]
Under his stewardship the Chase spread internationally and became a central pillar in the world's financial system, including being the leading bank for the United Nations. It has a global network of correspondent banks that has been estimated to number about 50,000, the largest of any bank in the world. A notable achievement was the setting up of the first branch of an American bank at One Karl Marx Square, near the Kremlin, in the then Soviet Union, in 1973. This was also the year Rockefeller traveled to China, resulting in his bank becoming the National Bank of China's first correspondent bank in the United States.
Before becoming Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Paul Volcker worked for Chase. Volcker has had a long association with Rockefeller, becoming a member of the Trust Committee of the family in 1987, after stepping down from his position at the Reserve. The Trust Committee is the pivotal committee which controls the wealth of the family through trusts established by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., as well as the real estate firm that then owned Rockefeller Center, before it was sold.[14]
World Bank and IMF
The Chase Bank has also had a strong connection to the World Bank, as three presidents (John J. McCloy, Eugene R. Black, Sr. and George Woods) all worked at Chase before taking up positions at the international bank. A fourth president, James D. Wolfensohn, is also closely associated with Rockefeller, serving as a director of the Rockefeller Foundation, amongst other family-created institutions.[15]
Rockefeller has also for many years hosted annual luncheons at the family's Westchester County Pocantico estate for the world's finance ministers and central bank governors, following the annual Washington meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.[16] These luncheons were held at the Playhouse. These regular meetings were also attended by the other internationalist in the family, John D. Rockefeller III, until his death in 1978.
It was through a recommendation from the World Bank's Eugene Black that Rockefeller gained a crucial executive assistant, Joseph Verner Reed, Jr., from the beginning of his Chase chairmanship; Reed had been an assistant to Black at the World Bank and had worked with Black when he was a Chase director, rising to become a Vice President. Reed was subsequently to become a crucial emissary for Rockefeller in the admittance of the Shah of Iran into the United States, amongst other duties. Later, in 1987, Reed became Under Secretary General for Political Affairs at the United Nations, a pivotal senior position that is traditionally given to the United States, thus becoming the top-ranking American in the United Nations Secretariat.[17]

Prominent associates
An early connection he developed in the 1950s was with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). As well as knowing Allen Dulles and his brother John Foster Dulles — who was an in-law of the family [18]- since his college years,[19] it was in Room 3603 in Rockefeller Center that Allen Dulles had set up his WWII operational center after Pearl Harbor, liaising closely with MI6 which also had their principal U.S. operation in the Center.[20] He also knew and associated with the former CIA director Richard Helms, as well as Archibald Roosevelt, Jr., a Chase Bank employee and former CIA agent, whose cousin was the CIA agent, Kermit Roosevelt, Jr., involved in the Iran coup of 1953.[21] Also, in 1953, he had befriended William Bundy, a pivotal CIA analyst for nine years in the 1950s, who became the Agency liaison to the National Security Council, and a subsequent lifelong friend.[22] Moreover, in Cary Reich's biography of his brother Nelson, a former CIA agent states that David was extensively briefed on covert intelligence operations by himself and other Agency division chiefs, under the direction of David's "friend and confidant", CIA Director Allen Dulles.[23]
In November 1979, while chairman of the Chase Bank, Rockefeller became embroiled in an international incident when he and Henry Kissinger, along with John J. McCloy and Rockefeller aides, persuaded President Jimmy Carter through the United States Department of State to admit the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, into the United States for hospital treatment for lymphoma. This action directly precipitated what is known as the Iran hostage crisis and placed Rockefeller under intense media scrutiny (particularly from The New York Times) for the first time in his public life.[24]
In his extensive world travels, flying from country to country in his private jet, he has met a vast range of world leaders, including Fidel Castro, Nikita Khrushchev, Mikhail Gorbachev and, notably, Saddam Hussein. Other notable figures whom he has counted amongst his personal friends include members of the Rothschild, Henry Ford and Dulles families, along with such high profile individuals as Katharine Graham, of the Washington Post, Brooke Astor, Nelson Mandela and Peter G. Peterson, chairman of the Blackstone Group, who succeeded Rockefeller as chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations in 1985.
Rockefeller has often hosted visits by foreign dignitaries to New York. One such occasion occurred in 1994 and concerned the visit of the Emperor and Empress of Japan. Rockefeller co-hosted their reception at the Metropolitan Museum of Art with the chairman of the New York Times Company, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, Jr., who was also chairman of the museum; among the audience were Helmut Schmidt of Germany, Sir Edward Heath of the United Kingdom and Jacques Chirac of France.[25]
Another prominent American public official with whom Rockefeller has had a longstanding relationship was his brother Nelson's long-time consultant and protege, Henry Kissinger, whose wife, Nancy Kissinger, (née Maginnes) was a former foreign policy aide to his brother. They first met in 1954, when Kissinger was appointed a director of a seminal Council on Foreign Relations study group on nuclear weapons, of which David was a member.[26] The relationship developed to the point that Kissinger was invited to sit on the board of trustees of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
Rockefeller consulted with Kissinger on numerous occasions, as for example in the Chase Bank's interests in Chile and the threat of the election of Salvador Allende in 1970,[27] and fully supported his "opening of China" initiative in 1971 as it afforded banking opportunities for the Chase Bank.[28]
In 1965, Rockefeller and other senior businessmen formed the Council of the Americas to stimulate and support economic integration in the Americas. The Council subsequently played a key role in the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).[29] In 1992, at a Council sponsored forum, Rockefeller proposed a "Western Hemisphere free trade area", which subsequently became the Free Trade Area of the Americas in a Miami summit in 1994. His and the Council's chief liaison to President Bill Clinton in order to garner support for this initiative was through Clinton's chief of staff, Mack McLarty, whose consultancy firm Kissinger McLarty Associates is a corporate member of the Council, while McLarty himself is on the board of directors.[30]
In 1967, he formed The Business Committee for the Arts, Inc. (BCA), which is a national not-for-profit based in New York that established the annual Business in the Arts Awards, awarded to businesses who have formed exemplary partnerships with the arts community; this organization is co-sponsored by Forbes Magazine.[31]
In 1979, he formed the Partnership for New York City, which is another not-for-profit membership organization consisting of a select group of two hundred CEOs ("Partners") from New York City’s top corporate, investment and entrepreneurial firms. They are elected annually and committed to working closely with government, labor and the nonprofit sector to enhance the economy and maintain New York City’s position as the global center of commerce, culture and innovation. Through its roster of blue-chip corporations, Rockefeller sits at the core of a network of the most powerful and influential businessmen and women in corporate America.[32] In 1992, he was selected as a leading member of the Russian-American Bankers Forum, an advisory group set up by the head of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to advise Russia on the modernization of its banking system, with the full endorsement of President Boris Yeltsin.[33]
President Jimmy Carter offered him the positions of United States Secretary of the Treasury and Federal Reserve Chairman but he declined both positions, preferring a private role (recommending Volcker instead as Fed Chairman, who was subsequently appointed). Another offer he declined was from his brother Nelson, who offered to appoint him to Robert Kennedy's Senate seat after Kennedy was assassinated in June 1968, a post Nelson also offered to their nephew Jay Rockefeller.[34]
In his private capacity he has worked with every United States president since Eisenhower, at times serving as an unofficial emissary on high-level diplomatic missions (an "ambassador without portfolio"). In addition, he has acted as spokesman for the U.S. business and financial community and the New York City business community to United States Presidents on several notable occasions, notably the occasion of New York City's budgetary crisis of 1975.
A lifelong Republican and party contributor, like his father in the dynastic line, he is a committed member of the moderate "Rockefeller Republicans" that arose out of the political ambitions and public policy stance of his brother Nelson. In 2006 he teamed up with former Goldman Sachs executives and others to form a fund-raising group based in Washington, Republicans Who Care, that supported moderate Republican candidates over more ideological contenders.[35]
An early connection he developed in the 1950s was with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). As well as knowing Allen Dulles and his brother John Foster Dulles — who was an in-law of the family [18]- since his college years,[19] it was in Room 3603 in Rockefeller Center that Allen Dulles had set up his WWII operational center after Pearl Harbor, liaising closely with MI6 which also had their principal U.S. operation in the Center.[20] He also knew and associated with the former CIA director Richard Helms, as well as Archibald Roosevelt, Jr., a Chase Bank employee and former CIA agent, whose cousin was the CIA agent, Kermit Roosevelt, Jr., involved in the Iran coup of 1953.[21] Also, in 1953, he had befriended William Bundy, a pivotal CIA analyst for nine years in the 1950s, who became the Agency liaison to the National Security Council, and a subsequent lifelong friend.[22] Moreover, in Cary Reich's biography of his brother Nelson, a former CIA agent states that David was extensively briefed on covert intelligence operations by himself and other Agency division chiefs, under the direction of David's "friend and confidant", CIA Director Allen Dulles.[23]

In 2006 he teamed up with former Goldman Sachs executives and others to form a fund-raising group based in Washington, Republicans Who Care, that supported moderate Republican candidates over more ideological contenders.[35]
Bilderberg, Council on Foreign Relations and Trilateral Commission
A lifelong globalist, due to the strong influence of his father, he had at an early age further spread his connections when he was invited to attend the inaugural elitist Bilderberg Group meetings, starting with the Holland gathering in 1954. He has been a consistent attendee through the decades and has been a member of the "steering committee", which determines the invitation list for the upcoming annual meetings. These have frequently included prominent national figures who have gone on to be elected as political leaders of their respective countries including Bill Clinton who first attended in 1991.
David Rockefeller joined the Council on Foreign Relations as its youngest-ever director in 1949 and subsequently became chairman of the board from 1970 to 1985; today he serves as honorary chairman.[36]
In 2002 Rockefeller authored his autobiography “Memoirs” wherein, on page 405, Mr. Rockefeller writes: “For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."
Rockefeller maintains that, although Bilderberg's role is not to resolve disputes, because of the wide-ranging experience of the various attendees participants are 'free to report on what they have heard' to their respective heads of government.[37]
It was a dissatisfaction with the failure of this group to include Japan that subsequently led to him forming the Trilateral Commission (TC) in July 1973, influenced by, among others, Zbigniew Brzezinski, the National Security Advisor under Carter and the author of Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era, published in 1970. They discussed forming the organization at a Bilderberg Group meeting in Belgium in 1972; Brzezinski subsequently became the inaugural United States director. The Commission also launched its own magazine, the Trialogue.
It held the founding session of its Executive Committee in Tokyo in October, 1973. In May 1975, the first plenary meeting of all of the Commission's regional groups – North America, Europe and Japan, comprising some 300 members – took place in Kyoto. In its Third Annual Report, released in mid-1976, the Commission noted that there was a "noticeably increased emphasis on trilateral ties as the cornerstone of American foreign policy".[38]
This Commission was to come under media scrutiny when it was later disclosed that Carter appointed 26 former Commission members (who must resign before taking up government positions) to senior positions in his Administration. Moreover, it also came out that Carter himself was a former Trilateral member. (The Clinton Administration, by contrast, had close to a dozen Commission members, including Clinton himself; both Gerald Ford and George Bush Sr. were also Trilateralists).[39]
An important aspect of the Commission is their sending of delegations to visit foreign leaders. In 1989, to cite just one instance, Rockefeller visited the then USSR at the head of a high-powered Commission delegation which included Henry Kissinger, former French President Giscard d'Estaing, former Japanese Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone, and William Hyland, editor of the CFR's prestigious journal Foreign Affairs. In their meeting with Mikhail Gorbachev, the delegation sought and received an explanation on how the USSR would integrate into the world economy. The information thus gained through such delegations is then relayed back in reports to both the TC members and, where appropriate, to United States political leaders.[40]

This is your world government ladies and gentlemen.THE JESUIT TRAINED KNIGHTS OF MALTAKnights of Malta quotes
Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM) The grand master of the SMOM order is recognized as a sovereign chief of state by 41 nations with whom the SMOM exchanges ambassadors. [2011] Solving the Mystery of Babylon the Great by Edward Hendrie
The Knights of Malta were also responsible for helping thousands of the worst Nazis and members of the SS escape to freedom down these Ratlines, thus evading justice and avoiding the hangman’s noose at Nuremberg. PRINCES OF PLUNDER By David Guyatt
Opus Dei is a subordinate organization to the Pope, who is in control of the Knights of Malta, and therefore there are Knights ofMalta in Opus Dei.
The Jesuits control Opus Dei through the hierarchy of the Pope and through the Knights of Malta. Opus Dei is composed ofprominent Roman Catholic businessmen and politicians who have given themselves over to “God’s work”—that’s what Opus Dei means—for making the Pope the Universal Monarch of the world, ruling the world from Solomon’s rebuilt temple in Jerusalem.
An example of this is the former head of the FBI, Louis Freeh, was a member of Opus Dei. And so, we now understand the Waco incident, where those White Protestants were killed; it was the work of the Opus Dei. And we also have to remember that the sharpshooter, one of them there, was a Japanese Roman Catholic, Lon Horiuchi.
But Opus Dei is determined to create a World Government under the Pope. Opus Dei was created in the 20th Century, whereas the Knights of Malta were created in the 11th Century, and the Jesuits were created in the 16th Century, in 1540, with Ignatius Loyola.
So, the super-secret society of the Jesuit Order, in control of the Knights of Malta, were in existence nearly 500 years before Opus Dei. Opus Dei, like the Knights of Columbus, is a subordinate organization to the Jesuit Order. Maniacal World Control ThruThe Jesuit Order: Well-Hidden Soldiers Of Satan
The Order of the Garter is the secret inner group which is an elite group within the Order of St. John of Jerusalem which is the British part of the Knights of Malta.

down in Florida where
there new office
is. They moved from New York to Florida,
I think BoccaRaton.
They have 11 Knights of Malta on
the W. R. Grace board. And, of course, guess
who owns Taco Bell? W. R. Grace. So
now we see W. R. Grace involved
in the poisoning of America with
fast-food
chains, so everybody gets heart
disease, clogged arteries,
so they can go to bypass
surgery and
further enrich the medical profession,
while carrying out their medical
inquisition. Isn't that clear?
So not only are
they going to kill all of the American
people, but they're going to make
billions doing it. The
Black Pope: Interview of Eric

John McCone was a very
powerful industrialist, and
one who was part of the
military-industrial
complex, before he became the head of the
CIA. He later
went on to become part of,
I believe, ITT.
John McCone was another Knight of Malta, head of the CIA, and participated in the Kennedy assassination by virtue of him being its head. And he's Knight of Malta.
Angelton is a Knight of Malta. Henry Luce is a Knight of Malta. William F. Buckley is a Knight of Malta. And William F. Buckley then ran the National Review-and what does he do? He blames Oswald as the lone assassin. The Black Pope: Interview of Eric Jon Phelps
The Jesuits obviously wrote the Protocols because
they have carried
out every protocol in that little handbook. Alberto
Riverasays
that it was
Jews aligned
with the Pope who published the Protocols.
Well, I tend to feel that it was
just the Jesuits themselves because
they and
they alone,
were the ones who were able
to bring this to pass.John McCone was another Knight of Malta, head of the CIA, and participated in the Kennedy assassination by virtue of him being its head. And he's Knight of Malta.

They're the ones in the government. They're the ones behind professional sports. The owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers is aKnight of Malta. The owner of the Detroit Lions is a Knight of Malta. All your top owners of these ball clubs, for the most part, are Knights of Malta, getting the people whooped up in this hoopla over games and sports, while they're busy creating a tyranny. So, that was one of the things in the Protocols-that they would create 'amusements'.
Another one they used was Walt Disney, 33rd-degree Freemason-Disneyworld, Disneyland. Another one was Milton Hersey, with Hersey Park. They create all of these amusements and games and pastimes to get the people drunk with pleasure, while they're busy overthrowing the Protestant form of government........ the High Knights are good, dear brothers with the High Mafia Dons-the Gambinos, the Lucchese, the Columbos, all of them. And they control Hollywood, not the Jews. It's only Jews who are front-men who are involved in Hollywood and working for the Mafia and for the Cardinal, just like in politics it would be Arlen Spector.Arlen Spector was Spelly's [Cardinal Spellman's] Jew in the assassination [of President Kennedy], and he would never say a wordabout it.---Eric Jon Phelps
Well, the Jesuits had
brought in all of their
top Nazi SS
soldiers into the CIA because
the Jesuits were using the SS to kill the Jews in Europe. When the Einsatzgruppen
went into Russia, the Jesuits
followed with the SS and
purged Western Russia of all
its Jews. That's why Stalin
deliberately killed 40,000 of his
best officers.
That's why he kicked out his
best generals, purged them, because
he wanted to make
sure that the Red Army
would lose with the advance of the
German army,
because following that
would come the SS and
purge Russia of the
Jews that Stalin
so hated. And
by the way, justice is often
poetic because Stalin's
daughter marrieda Jew.
Now, the CIA was composed of the SS. The CIA now was an arm-and the intelligence arm-of the Vatican. The Knights of Maltawere throughout. Casey was a Knight of Malta. Angleton was a Knight of Malta. The Knights were through and through. Angleton manned the 'Vatican desk', and that is a desk within the CIA that has a direct link to the Vatican. Eric Jon Phelps

The present government of Israel
was set up by the High Masonic
Rothschild-controlled Jews, and
Rothschild has had an alliance
with the Jesuit General since
1876, with Adam
Weishaupt. This is the very same
Rothschild powers who betrayed
the Jews into the hands of the Nazis,
killing many Jews all
throughout Europe, betraying
their own Jewish people. These are
the very same powers who run the
nation of Israel
today.
I read a very interesting paragraph by Mark Lane in his book Plausible Denial when he tells about a Jew in Israel who wrote about certain criminal Jews, involved with the Nazis, who are now with the Mossad, something along those lines. The man who wrote the article was gunned-down in front of his home.
So, Rome controls the Israeli government. It controls the Israeli government through the Mossad.
Who trained the Mossad? Reinhard Gehlen.
We find that fact in Loftus' work The Secret War Against The Jews in most telling, telling detail. So what do we have? We have high-level treason and betrayal of the Jewish race; that is there in Israel today, by their own leaders, who are loyal to Rome and the Jesuit Order. And to show this, we have a great big Rockefeller edifice in Jerusalem; we have an ophthalmology center in Jerusalem run by the Knights of Malta. There's nothing but Knights of Malta, high-level Freemasonry, and the Jesuit Order runningall of Israel.
So what's going to happen, I believe, with the Dome of the Rock is, that has got to be removed-somehow, someway. It's on the Temple site; it has to be removed.
If I was the Jesuit General, I would make- somehow, someway-American bombers do it. Because I want to create universal hatred for this nation of the United States, because in the United States there are more Protestants and more Jews than any country in the world, and 'we've' got to kill all those people. So what better way than to create a Jihad, a Moslem fanatical attackagainst the United States, coupled with a Chinese invasion from the East. That's what I think is going to happen.
The Jews are not going to destroy that Temple site because, if they do, Rome will destroy their efforts of rebuilding the Temple. Because, if Moslems control all of Jerusalem, that Temple will never be rebuilt. It has to stay in Jewish hands-because the Jews,and rightfully so, need their own homeland. They're entitled to the nation. And they haven't had their own Temple of worship. They are rightfully entitled to that.
But what they don't know is that they are being used by the Jesuits to rebuild their own Temple, that they would love to have rebuilt, for the Pope, so he can sit there and be the man of sin, the Anti-Christ of the Book of Daniel, Chapter 9. That's what I see coming for Israel.
The assassination of Rabin? He wanted to give away too much. He probably wanted to give away some of Jerusalem. The Jesuits will never allow that. So, his bodyguards just step aside and the Mossad kills him. And nothing more is ever heard.
Rome's-the Jesuit General's-international intelligence community carries out all high-level assassinations, kills anybody who'sagainst their program. And Cromwell knew this, back in his day, and that's why he protected himself-160 of his finest 'ironsides'as his bodyguards, and no one got to him. The Black Pope: Interview of Eric Jon Phelps

The American
Pope is the Cardinal of New
York. He is the most powerful Cardinal
in the United States. He is what's
called 'the military
vicar'. The
military vicar
is in command of all of the
military orders within the
United States, they being the
Knights ofMalta and
the Knights of Columbus.
He is also
in command, and
privately, of 'the
Commission' because Cardinal
Spellman was an
intimate of Joe
Kennedy, and
Joe Kennedy was an
intimate of Frank
Costello......And
that Commission, you know what
it controls?All of the
trucking, all
the supermarkets, it's power is
beyond our wildest imagination,
second only to the Knights of Malta. And,of course,
they all
control the Federal Reserve Bank.
The Cardinal controls the Federal Reserve Bank through the Council on Foreign Relations. The Council on Foreign Relations belongs to the Cardinal. Spellman was not a member of it, during his day, but two of the most powerful members were Knights ofMalta: Henry Luce and J. Peter Grace, and also William F. Buckley, to this day. William F. Buckley is indeed one of my enemies, because I name him, and he is a powerful multi-billionaire who participated in the Kennedy assassination, just like Iacocca,another Knight. Both of those men are subject to Cardinal O'Connor and will do ANYTHING he says........Remember that Alexander Haig is a powerful Knight of Malta. His brother is a Jesuit.
So, sure they have meetings. The High Knights of Malta, who meet in their palace on Aventin Hill, in Rome, of course, meet with the Jesuit General, and so on. And Count von Hoensbroech, who was a German Noble who became a Jesuit for 14 years-he wrote atwo-volume work called Fourteen Years A Jesuit. His father was a Knight of Malta. Yes, the Jesuits work in conjunction and have regular meetings with the Knights of Malta.
The Knights control the money. The Knights control the banks. They control the Bank of Canada, Federal Reserve Bank, Bank ofEngland; they control the banking. They were the ones who were behind the sinking of the Titanic, with the creation of the White Star Line, J.P. Morgan and others. The Black Pope: Interview of Eric Jon Phelps

The Knights of Malta and
the Jesuits work together! (Truth
seeker, this may seem irrelevant
now, but it is important for you
to beaware of this
connection. As
we shall see, the Knights financed
Lenin and
Hitler from Wall Street, also
using their Federal Reserve Bank
headed by Masonic
Jews, Warburg in particular.) The
Knights negotiated the Concordat
(a Papal
treaty) between the Popeand
Hitler in the person of Franz
Von Papen. They also
helped top Nazis
to escape to North and
South America after
World War II in the persons of James Angleton and Argentina's
President Juan Peron.
In America, the Knights, with their OSS, later the CIA, were behind 'Operation Paperclip'. After World War II, top Nazis and scientists were illegally secreted into the United States. Many were placed in the top-secret military installation in Tonapah, Nevada known as 'Area 51'. The perfection of the Nazis' anti-gravity aircraft (flying saucers) was to be completed there, among other secret technologies. 'Operation Paperclip' was overseen by America's most powerful Knight of Malta, J. Peter Grace. J. Peter Grace was subject to the Jesuit-trained Archbishop Spellman, as the American headquarters for the Knights was and is St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York. Direct excerpts from the forthcoming book by Eric Jon Phelps called Vatican Assassins.
Another
tie in between the Kennedy's and
the Knights of Malta concerns
the Hospice movement. The Kennedy Institute for the Study of Human
Reproduction and
Bioethics (located at
the Jesuit’s Georgetown Univ.) is helping fund the Knights of Malta’s
hospice movement in America.
In Oct. 1978, the first annual
meeting of the
National
Hospice Organization
took place. Sen. Edward
Kennedy was one of the
two keynote speakers. What
is the hospice movement which is being conducted by the Hospitallers
(one of the
names the Knights of Malta go
by)? It is a movement
to allow
old people "The Right to Die.’ In America, the Knights, with their OSS, later the CIA, were behind 'Operation Paperclip'. After World War II, top Nazis and scientists were illegally secreted into the United States. Many were placed in the top-secret military installation in Tonapah, Nevada known as 'Area 51'.

Peter Grace was subject to the Jesuit-trained Archbishop Spellman, as the American headquarters for the Knights was and is St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York. Direct excerpts from the forthcoming book by Eric Jon Phelps called Vatican Assassins.
The Knights of Malta have an ancient history of running drugs and in administering mind altering drugs in their hospitals instead of giving medicine. This ancient activity was carried forth into modern times when their St. Christopher’s hospital in London began giving patients Brompton Mixture until they died. Brompton Mixture consists of heroin, cocaine, alcohol, tranquilizers, and chloroform water. This mixture is given in the Knights of Malta hospitals to patients every three hours until they die. Euthanasia, or "mercy killing" may seem like a merciful idea, until a person finds out how the people at the top of the Euthanasia movement view things. They view things similar to the Satanist Adolf Hitler. This view is that it is merciful to get rid ofunwanted people. Although the "death" hospice movement seems benevolent at first, it is the conclusion of where the program will end up that is the kicker. Hospice, Inc. which is linked to the elite is also provided funding by the Kaiser Foundation.Bloodlines of the Illuminati 6. Kennedy
interfaith Pioneer Klenicki Knighted By Pope For Historic Contributions To Jewish-Catholic Relations
New York, NY, August 27, 2007 … Rabbi Leon Klenicki, the Anti-Defamation League's Interfaith Affairs Director Emeritus, has been knighted by Pope Benedict XVI for his historic contributions in creating positive relationships between Catholics and Jews around the world. Rabbi Klenicki was made a Papal Knight of the Order of St. Gregory the Great at a ceremony at the Vatican's Mission to the United Nations, presided by Cardinal Sean O'Malley of Boston.
 |
"I am deeply honored by Pope Benedict XVI for my nomination as a Papal Knight of the Order of St. Gregory the Great," said Rabbi Klenicki, who recalled his many meetings through the years with the future pope -- then Cardinal Ratzinger -- whom he praised for "the depth and breadth of his knowledge."
"I cannot describe how much this honor means to me," he said. "It is recognition of the importance of the interfaith dialogue that has been my vocation and my passion for more than 30 years."
Rabbi Klenicki, a native of Argentina, thanked his high school and university teachers, his family, and his wife, Myra Cohen, whom he called his inspiration. He also thanked ADL "for the opportunities it has given me to spend more than 30 years in the field of interfaith work."
"We are extremely proud that Rabbi Klenicki's decades of work to help reconcile the Catholic and Jewish people has been recognized by Pope Benedict XVI with this special honor," said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director. "Leon is a true pioneer in interfaith dialogue and education. I can think of no better person to deserve this honor."
Leon Klenicki received a Rabbinical diploma in 1967 from the Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati. In September 1967, Klenicki returned to Buenos Aires, where he accepted the position of Director of the Latin American Office of the World Union for Progressive Judaism. He helped develop Reform Judaism in Latin America and lectured widely at the main LatinAmerican Jewish centers. Rabbi Klenicki served as an advisor on interfaith affairs for the DAIA, the main Jewish organization inArgentina.
In October 1973, Rabbi Klenicki joined ADL as head of the Jewish-Catholic Relations Department. He became Director of ADL's Department of Interfaith Affairs in 1984, and ADL's Co-Liaison to the Vatican. He held this position until his retirement in January 2001.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops recommended to all U.S. bishops and cardinals that they observe Holocaust Memorial Day by using as a liturgy the service prepared by Rabbi Klenicki and Dr. Eugene J. Fisher, "From Desolation to Hope: An Interreligious Holocaust Memorial Service." In May 2001, Rabbi Klenicki was honored by the Holy See's Commission for Interreligious Relations with Judaism for his contributions to the interfaith dialogue.
Attending yesterday's ceremony at the Vatican Mission were leading Catholic and Jewish interfaith officials including Archbishop Celestino Migliore, the Holy See's Permanent Observer to the United Nations and Father James Massa, Executive Director of theOffice of Ecumenical and Interrreligious Affairs for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta,
also known as the original Sovereign Military Order of St.
John of Jerusalem,
is aclosed fraternity of the
Roman Catholic Church.
Its
initiated members must be Catholic and have served in the military.
They participate in secret ceremonies and feudal ritual dress, and
embrace a strong class/caste mentality as part of their
initiation into Rosicrucian
dogma. The upper grades are fastidiously aristocratic and must be able to display a family coat-of-arms dating back at least 300 years in unbroken succession from father to son.
The Sovereign
Grand Master of the order is
recognized as a head of state,
and his authority is ensured by his secular ranking as a Prince,
and his ecclesiastical ranking as a Cardinal.
Under international law this organization has independent Sovereign
status, which assures nationalistic loyalty from its members, above and
beyond allegiance to their own country - they also have Permanent
Observer status at theUnited
Nations.
The order and its members have been proven to be linked with the "Rat Run", the post-WWII escape route used by high-rankingNazis and death camp scientists from defeated Germany to the Americas. Sovereign Knight of Malta passports were issued with false identities that allowed escape from prosecution for war crimes.
Perversely, after
the war the order’s
highest decoration, the ’Grand Cross of Merit’,
was awarded to Nazi General Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler’s Eastern Front
intelligence chief, who was highly complicit in the atrocities carried
out by the Nazis in Russia and Eastern
Europe - mainly the
unprecedented slaughter of Jews
and civilian Slavs.
The brotherhood’s Catholic and aristocratic roots made the modern knights fervently anti-communist. The order has been largely responsible for the construction of the CIA, and many of its global covert operations.

The founding fathers of the CIA William
"Wild Bill" Donovan and Allen Dulles were knights,
as were many other CIA hierarchy
including Ronald Reagan’s
director William Casey
and JFK’s director John
McCone. According to "Watergate" journalist Carl Bernstein, Casey
gave Pope John Paul II unprecedented access to CIA intelligence
including spy satellites and agents.
In fact, one could blame the start of the Cold War upon "Wild Bill" Donovan personally. At the end of the First World War Donovan led a secret mission to Siberia to observe the Russian Revolution. Due to his reconnaissance an American unit was sent to fight the Russian Bolsheviks who were broadly considered Allies, as they were still fighting the Germans alongside the British and the French in the trenches of Europe.

The American troops
could not understand why they were being ordered
to burn the villages and kill "these poor and hungry peasants, who’ve
been treated so terribly by their rulers", as one "doughboy" wrote to
his wife. It is historically un-American to side with the aristocratic
powers of Europe
against the common man.
Donovan’s motives
for fighting the Bolsheviks could
only have been due to his Vatican/Knights of Malta allegiances,
as at this time the Russian
Revolution was no threat
to the American Republic. As a consequence in July 1944 Pope Pius XII
awarded Donovan the ’Grand Cross of the Order of St.
Sylvester’, the
oldest and most prestigious of papal
knighthoods, and the highest Catholic award ever received by an
American.
Less than one
hundred men have received this award throughout history.
The Knights of Malta’s
key spheres of control
are Africa and Latin
America, and include many dictators such as mass murderer General
Pinochet in their ranks.
Membership in Latin America includes Masonic lodge "P2" fascists and many surviving Nazi players, who are directly responsible for the formation of the modern neo-Nazi movement. Knight and Nazi escapee Otto "Scarface" Skorzeny, who led a commando raid on the Cathar region of France in search of occult artifacts including the Holy Grail, played a major role in the Vatican’s "Rat Run".

He was a close
friend of Argentinian
president and knight Juan Peron, who recent CIA documents
prove was also involved in the laundering of Nazi gold
through the Vatican Bank.
Conveniently for Nazi members who did not escape Europe, William Donovan
served as chief aide to the American prosecutor at the post-war
Nuremberg trials, after handing over the reigns of the OSS/CIA to
fellow knight Allen Dulles.
As Roman Catholic author Penny Lernoux reveals in her "People of God":
As Roman Catholic author Penny Lernoux reveals in her "People of God":
"After the war, the Vatican, the OSS, the SS, and various branches of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta joined to do battle against the common Soviet enemy - and to help Nazi war criminals escape... Baron Luigi Parrilli, an Italian aristocrat and Knight of Malta/papal chamberlain, took part in negotiations between SS leaders and the CIA’s Allen Dulles."
Prior to working for
the OSS (he
headed the OSS station in Switzerland during the war) Allen Dulles and
his law partner John Foster had served as business managers and lawyers
to John
D. Rockefeller’s Standard
Oil.
They personally
brokered the partnership between Standard Oil and I.G.
Farben chemical
corporation. I.G.Farben not
only produced gasoline for the Nazi war machine, it manufactured "Zyklon
B", used slave labor before and during the war (including their huge
petro-chemical factory adjacent to Auschwitz death camp), owned Bayer
Pharmaceuticals which
according to a current lawsuit was directly involved in Dr. Josef
Mengele’s horrific Auschwitz experiments,
and was spared from Allied bombings due to its Rockefeller interests.
Leading war-time
journalist George Seldes attempted to reveal this "unholy alliance"
through his newspaper articles, but was rarely published at the time,
and efforts were made to kill him. Joseph Heller’s satirical novel "Catch
22" made light of this
insanity with his "we agreed to bomb our own bases in return for the
Nazis buying our chocolate covered cotton".

It’s first chairman

Bernhard of the
Netherlands, who held that position for the next 22 years, until a
financial scandal forced him to resign. His daughter, Shell Oil co-owner
Queen Beatrix regularly attends meetings, as do ample other European
aristocratic players. The undemocratic "Bilderberg Group" continues to
play a major part in international affairs, and remains closed to public
scrutiny and participation.
Documents show that New York’s Cardinal Francis Spellman was directly involved in the 1954 right-wing military coup ofGuatemala, which led to the murder of thousands, and of which the CIA has acknowledged complicity.

He has also been
linked to neo-Nazi group "P2" and the Mafia by his long involvement with
"P2" member Archbishop Paul
Marcinkus of Chicago,
former head of the
Vatican Bank, who was under serious suspicion by Italian authorities for
the untimely death of Pope
John Paul I.
Cardinal Spellman
was not only an old friend of CIA
creator "Wild Bill" Donovan (who previously had a law firm in New York)
but was the actual head of the Knights of Malta in
America throughout the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s, and was responsible for vast
sums ofmoney
raised from its members, who have to pay thousands annually to remain in
the order.
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM) is directly allied with international Freemasonry, from where they recruit their new elite brethren. Hence, the Knights of Malta and the Knights Templar are the Rosicrucian upper-degrees of Freemasonry.
According to "Knights of Darkness" author Francois Hervet:

According to "Knights of Darkness" author Francois Hervet:
"Freemasonry generally purports to be hostile to Catholicism... nevertheless in December of 1969 an exclusive meeting was held in the Rome office of Count Umberto Ortolani, the ambassador of the Knights of Malta to Uruguay, who has been called ’the brains’ behind the "P2" Masonic lodge. In addition to Ortolani, the meeting included only Licio Gelli, Roberto Calvi, and Michele Sindona",
...all of whom
have been implicated in the death of Pope
John Paul I and massive bank fraud.

Non-aristocratic
parties can now be initiated by the "Magistral Grace" of the
Grand Master, although not in Britain, Germany and other European
countries with a strong tradition of nobility.
However, this has allowed many Americans to join, and an "Order ofMerit"
is bestowed upon those who have outstandingly served the Knights or
their works. Past Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush are such
honorary initiates, and Reagan was the toast of an
extravagant dinner held by the Order in
1989.
With more than 11,000 knights worldwide, the Grand Master and Sovereign Council remain based in Rome. Their goal of political Feudalism is clearly seen in the actions of Prince Hans Adam II, the Habsburg-supported ruling monarch of Liechtenstein, and a prominent Knight of Malta and member of the Vatican’s Opus Dei, who in October 1999 was reprimanded by the European Court ofHuman Rights for claiming he had final constitutional authority over his country’s Supreme Court.

The Protestant equivalent of the Catholic Knights of Malta, also known as the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, gained greater credibility when the head of the British Empire HM Queen Victoria became their Sovereign Head in 1888. This Order of St. John, whose current Sovereign Head is HM Queen Elizabeth II, similarly use the Cross of Malta insignia as their emblem.

that charity and protecting the poor are their main cause, this has been
used as a tool of Western
Imperialism for the last 1000 years, and began with the first
Crusades to occupy Jerusalem.
These "charitable
concerns" are unlikely to take precedence over their secret
historical agenda - the fulfillment of the
prophecies ofSt.
John the Divine, whose Revelation
acts as a political
template for these historically-intoxicated and reactionary-minded
organizations.
It is additionally
disturbing that the Protestant Order of St.
John was recently granted
non-Governmental membership of the
United Nations.
The unusually shaped Cross of Malta was the original emblem of the controversial Knights Templar, and was adopted as the official insignia of the Knights of Malta, when the Knights Templar were forced to submit to the authority of the Vatican.
SOUTH AFRICAN KNIGHTS
FREEDOM CENTRAL’S
FREEDOM LOG
As
we all grow and move towards conscientizing the
reality that we are all ONE, it seem somewhat
backwards to declare my outright patriotism as a
South African, as I can hear the “Love and Light
Police” chastising me already with cries the likes of “
being patriotic just creates more separatist
identification”. This may very well be the case,
but it is my desire to help those that I love the
most, in the place that I love the most, being my
friends and family in my beloved home country of South
Africa, that has bought me down the path ofresearch
that is the subject of this
article.
For several months
now, I have been debating with family, friends and
other well-informed South Africans about the state of affairs
in the world at present in an attempt to educate,
and inspire them to educate themselves. It is
always wonderfully heartening to find so many people
on the ground in South Africa, checking out
alternative sources of information
other than the mainstream media, or picking up one of the
many fantastic publications of this
genreof information,
which provides a wonderful catalysts into a whole
new world of expanded
awareness and perception, which is a part of dynamic
process of evolution
and revolution.
There are now people
who claim to have a general grasp on the real
reality that is now no longer conspiracy, rather
well researched, well proven and well documented
fact of some of the
many people that Freedom Central has had the great
honor to work with. Sadly these very same South
Africans are still claiming religious denomination
and devotion, or standing in line to vote in
government elections, when deep down we all know
that we live in a Multi Party Dictatorship that we
are sold as democracy. When I questioned why
apparently awake and aware South Africans were still
going to church, or were still discussing voting for
Helen Zille of the
Democratic Alliance, I was met with the repeated
answer that South Africa and South African politics
is different to the rest of the
world. Yes we know 9/11 was an inside job, and yes
we know about the corrupt bankers and Skull & Bones
and the Freemasons, and how that pertains to the
American and European establishment, but how does
that tie into South Africa?
As South Africans,
we think we are tucked away down far away from the
main happenings of the
world, so somehow things do not affect us. Perhaps
that is due to the fact that there is and never has
been much interest from the International community
in helping Africa, other than to help themselves to
the natural resources. And thus, it is also
important for the international community to sit up
and take note what is going on in South Africa,
because not only are they somewhat responsible for
the state of affairs
in Africa, but also because South Africa has always
been a global testing ground for international
politics. The powers that be know most African are
too stupidified by poverty to make this connection,
or even notice what is going on.
We host a wonderful
interview with Durban based writer Linda Smith who
gives great examples of how
South African policy mirrors international policy,
they just change the language to make it seem like
it is different. But it is the same story over and
over again, from country to country.
(link to Linda
Smith’s interview)
For those of you
who are new to this information, pay close
attention. Likewise please forgive me if some of these
details are familiar to some, but for the sake of understanding
how the dots connect, please be patient with the
presentation ofthe
evidence, which is extensive.
Okay from the
beginning then.
The various
governments of the
world are nothing more than puppets playing a game of distraction
on the global stage ofpolitics,
and South Africa is no different. Our Governments
have no real power and can make no real decisions.
It actually does not matter whom we vote for,
because the real controllers of planet
Earth, control all parties in any given election.
Indeed, the true power lies behind the governments
who are merely puppets for an institution, as the
world is really run by those that I have often
referred to as the Shadow Government, The Oligarchy,
The Powers That Be, or The Dark Forces. All these
refer to the hidden hand behind global affairs,
which is a complex web of ancient
family dynasties, religious and financial
institutions, secret societies such as the
Freemasons and Papal Knights,
all headed up from Vatican City.
There is very little
documentation that exists about the ties of the
Illuminati to South Africa, as few from abroad seem
to take interest in researching South Africa’s
affairs, and there have not yet been many South
African insiders coming forward, or if they have,
they have been silenced. But we need not look far
to find the clues that build the picture of how
we tie into the global conspiracy. It is a matter of public
record that in South African’s history, that top
“Voortrekkers” such as Piet Retief, belonged to the
Freemasonic Order of the
Old Dutch Goedehoop, and they spread Masonic
symbolism where ever they founded towns.
There are only a few
brief references in some biographical literature, to
a secret group that controls South Africa that
nobody is allowed to talk about. This group is
fleetingly refered to as “Wyse Manne”, which is
Afrikaans for “Wise Men”. One of the
illusive recorded references to the secret
controllers of South
Africa, is in a book called “Dokument X”, by Gunther
Schieckelgruber which is written in Afrikaans, but
is a compilation of information
from spies and informants during the Appartheid
era. The mysterious “Wyse Manne” come up again in a
publication by South African Journalist, Chris
Steyn-Barlow in a tell all book entitled “Publish
and be Damned”. The memoirs of this
reporter point out that when the “Wyse Manne” were
mentioned in the main-stream media, the claims of their
existence were quickly dismissed as fairytale by the
very people who had made the claims in the first
place.
So who are the “Wyse
Manne”?
The Wyse Manne are a
group of industrialists
including members of the
Oppenheimer family, select Black liberationists and
former “Broederbond” members, and no doubt, other
high ranking elitists and financial powers. Logic
suggest that somebody like Hotelier Sol Kerzner,
could be one of them.
The Wyse Manne controlled the super Afrikaaner
Broederbond (which had Nazi ties) during Apartheid,
and they also control the ANC after Appartheid. The
Wyse Manne are also the ones behind the rise to
power of Democratic
Alliance leader and Southern Star Freemason, Helen
Zille, and they control South African politics to
this very day for the same Dark Powers that the rest of the
world is subject to.
South Africa indeed
has it’s very own secret services intelligence
network, complete with an division much like the CIA
run Al Qaida. Many of you
already know this, but for those of you
who don’t, Al Qaida is NOT a bunch of Muslim
Extremists who what to bring a Jihad (holy war) all
non-Muslims. In fact Al Qaida is nothing more than
a CIA network of agents
trained to facilitate “false flag” operations much
like the attrocities of 9/11.
In much the same way, South Africa has it’s very own
special secret unit of “Agent
Provocateurs”, whose purpose, it appears, is to stir
up racial and religious tension and hatred among
South Africans. The ANC youth Leader, Julius Malema
is one such agent. Another iconic South African
known as Pik Botha was one of our
very top secret agents. Although Pik Botha is a far
cry from anything remotely “James Bond-esque”, he
was in contact and working with Israeli Mossad,
British Secret Services, Central Intelligence Agency
and the Russian run KGB. Knowing this it may seem
on the surface that Pik Botha was a triple agent
playing for all sides, or playing sides against each
other, but this is where one needs to pay close
attention:
At the very highest
levels of government
and intelligence, there are no sides. In fact, the
International Intelligence community is controlled
by the Jesuit for the Papacy.
The Jesuit order was
found 11 August 1534 by Ignatius Loyola and
sanctioned by Pope Paul III on 27 September 1540.
“Loyola wanted the Order to
be the champions of Catholic
unity, which could only be observed through an
effective submission to Christ’s Vicar (the pope)”.
Loyola continued
“Even if God gave you an animal without sense as a
master, you will not hesitate to obey him, as master
and as guide, because god ordained it to be so”
This quote indicates
the loyalty the Jesuits have to the Pope. In fact,
Pope Pius III gave the Jesuit Order papal
protection, whilst Catholic nobles donated castles,
schools and money to the Jesuits.
The Jesuits are
indeed very powerful, and this is more than obvious
when looking at some of the
secret and not so secret organisations that the
Jesuits control, including:
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta & Knights of St
John and the Hopitaliers
(Known as The Knights of Malta or Knights of the
Maltese Cross)
The Order of the
Illuminati
The Scottish Rite
Shrine of Freemasonry
The Order of Skull
& Bones
The Knights of Columbus
The Knights Templar
The Knights of Lazarus
Opus Dei
The Nation of Islam
and it’s private army called “The Fruit of Islam”
(The Roman Catholic
Church invented Islam to control the Arabs)
The Mafia Commission
(Known as The Mafia)
The Bohemian Club
The Club of Rome
And some other
lesser brotherhoods
But the most telling
and chilling evidence of how
very powerful and evil the Jesuits are, can be seen
in the oath that they take upon becoming a Jesuit.
“ I _____________in
the presence of Almighty
God, the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Blessed Michael
the Archangel, the Blessed St. John, the Baptist,
Peter, Paul and all the Saints, swear that the Pope
is Christ’s Vice regent and is the true and only
head of the
Catholic Universal Church..... The Pope has the
power to depose of heretical
kings, princes, states, common wealths, government
and that they may be destroyed if the pope has not
given his blessings over them. This
power was given by the savior Jesus Christ....”
So let us just
clarify just in case there is any confusion, the
Jesuits swear an oath that says, if a government is
not subject to Rome, it can be destroyed!
It goes on to say:
“I do further
declare, that I will help and assist and advise all of his
Holiness’ agents, where ever I may be and will do my
utmost to destroy the heretical Protestant or
Liberal Doctrines (Liberal doctrines are where you
make up your mind what you want to believe, you take
the liberty of making
your own choice rather than allowing the Catholic
Church to make them for you)...... It does not
matter where in the world you may send me, I will
obey. I promise to have no opinion of my
own.....I promise that I will make war against all
heretics, Protestants and Liberals, as I am directed
to do to exterminate them from the face of the
whole earth. I will spare neither sex, age, race
nor condition, and thus I will hang, burn, flay
strange and bury alive these infamous heretics, rip
up the stomachs and wombs of their
women and crush their infants’ heads in order to
annihilate forever their race. If I can not do it
openly then I will do it secretly”
This oath
illustrates the power that Rome gives the Jesuit order,
who are in effect agents for the Catholic Church,
given a licence to kill as gruesomely as possible.
They are exempt from all laws of governance
other than their allegiance to the Pope and can get
away with all manner of torture
and mayhem in the name of the
Pope..
Virtually everything
the Jesuits own has been given to them or stolen by
them. They stole all of the
fortunes of the
Jews in World War II, and steel all gold and seized
all assets in the name of Jesus,
progress or colonization, whenever they went into a
country warring. Since their inception, nearly
every war that has broken out is attributable to
them.
The Jesuits are the
heirs of the
occult religion and they control the world through
various agencies. They stand in the background,
create sub organisations such as the various
denominations of Papal Knights and
Freemasons, while everyone thinks the Jesuits are
not active.
Dispite following
occultic practices, the Jesuits are known today as
The Society of Jesus
and are appropriately based in the same building as
the Inquisition.
The Jesuit Order is
headed up by a Superior General. The current
Superior General is Reverend Father Adolfo Niclolas
Pachon. He is one of the
most powerful men on the planet today, if not the
most powerful, and is known as The Black Pope. He
is far more powerful than the Pope we know, who is
in effect, just a puppet for a fake religious
institution.
This following is a
ceremony of induction
and extreme oaths of the
Jesuits:
“You have been
taught to insidiously plant the seeds of jealousy
and hatred between communities, provinces and states
that were at peace, and incite them to deeds of blood,
involving them in war with each other and to create
revolutions and civil wars in countries that were
independant and prosperous, cultivating the arts and
sciences and enjoying the blessing ofpeace.
To take sides with the combatants and to act
secretly in concert with your brother Jesuit, who
might be engaged on the other side, but openly
opposed to that with which you might be connected,
only that the Church might be the gainer in the end,
in the conditions fixed in the treaties for peace
and that the end justifies the means”

Now that we have a
clearer picture as to what those that are
controlling planet Earth are all about, lets us come
back to South Africa, and focus on some of our
own agents of the
Vatican.
It is round about
here that many of my
fellow South Africans want to slap me on the wrist
for even mentioning something negative that could
potentially be associated with their beloved
national hero Nelson Mandela, but the sad reality
is, if you want to look at how South Africa ties
into the global conspiracy, Mandela is the place to
start. Apart from being a 33rd Degree Freemason,
Nelson Mandela is also a Knight of Malta and
St John, as is the president that came after him,
Thabo Mbeki, both of whom
ran South Africa on behalf of the
Vatican.

Dave Hunt, an
American Baptist Historian wrote the following in
his book:
“Moreover, the Pope
has thousands of secret
agents worldwide. They include Jesuits, the Knights of Columbus, Knights ofMalta,
Opus Dei, CIA and others. The Vatican’s
Intelligence Service and it’s field resources are
second to none”
Extracted from
pg. 87 of A
Woman Rides the Beast published in 1994 by Harvest
House Publishers.
In fact, all
Knightly Orders
operate with the primary purpose of serving
and operating as the secret agents of the
Vatican. According to Edith Simon who wrote The Knights of the
Maltese Cross in
1961:
“The Grand Council
and Sovereign Military Order of Malta,
had headquaters in Rome. These knights of the
Papal Caesar, control the Banking, Industry and Military Complexes of the
world. They oversee Chase Manhattan Bank with
branches in Moscow and New York. They rule the
International Intelligence Community, the KGB in the
East and the CIA in the West…”
This is the most
compelling evidence so far as to who is involved in
the events going on at the moment. Just in case you
have not yet connected the dots, Chase Manhattan
Bank was a Rockerfeller bank and merged with JP
Morgan to form JP Morgan & Chase. In the most
recent edition of Forbes
Magazine, JP Morgan was listed as the wealthiest
company in the world. So not only does the Vatican
control the world’s wealth, they also control all
the intelligence networks throughout the world. The
Holy Catholic Inquisition that claimed the lives of over
60 million people, is the forerunner of what
has become the modern day intelligence community.
In fact, Jesuit HeadQuarters is in the same building
as the HeadQuartersof the
Inquisition.
In order for
you to understand how the Vatican has been
controlling world affairs for over 2000 years,
behind the guise offake
governments, be they Dictatorial, Democratic or
Communist, it is important that you know who some of the
membersof the Knights of Malta and
St John are.

But to name a few.
As we can see, there
are prominent men who are Knights of Malta,
and as we have seen, they have great wealth and
power and pretty much contol everything. They
control all the media, both print and broadcast;
they control all religions and the political scene,
as well as controlling all the money.
As many typical
South Africans will be saying right now, this is all
very good and well, but what does that mean for us?
If the Vatican
controls the world, how does that affect us?
…”They (the Papal Knights and
Jesuits) are simply the Romish army for the earthly
sovereignty of the
world in the future, with the Pontiff of Rome
for the Emperor...That’s their ideal, but there’s no
sort of mystery of lofty
melancholy about it... it’s simple lust of power, of filthy
earthly gain, of domination
– something like universal serfdom with them as
master –
that is all they stand for. They don’t even believe
in God perhaps”
Extracted from pg
309 of The
Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoyevsky,
origionally published in 1880 by New York Random
House
Thomas Aquinas, the
great Spiritual Philosopher wrote:
“The Pope, by Divine
Right, hath spiritual and Temporal (political)
Power, as supreme King of the
World...the Pope ofRome,
as the Head of the
Papal Government, claims absolute sovereignty and
supremacy over all the governments of the
earth”
Extracted from pg
30 & 31 of Romanism
as a World Power by Luther S.
Kauffman, The American Publishing Co. 1922).
Friedrich von
Hardenberg, who was a Protestant German Philosopher
wrote in 1800:
“Never before in the
course of the
world’s history had such a Society (the Jesuits)
appeared. The old Roman Senate itself did not lay
schemes for world domination with greater cetainty of success”
Extracted from
pg. 6 of The
Power and Secret of the
Jesuits by Rene Fulop Miller, published in 1930 by
New York garden City Publishing Co
These quotes from
various sources clearly point out the Pope rules the
world through his various hierarchies of control
and infiltration.
It is a good thing
then that the Pope has no hidden agenda… Or does he?
In a Vatican
circulated in house magazine called Civilta
Cattolica, which means,“Catholic Civilization”
(i.e. “World Government under the Pope”) it stated
that it believes that “Fascism is the regime that
corresponds most closely to the concepts of the
Church of Rome.”
In 1550, Pope Julius
III declared his claim to Universal and Temporal
(political) Power which was evident by a new coin he
issued which read:
“The nation and
kingdom that will not serve me shall perish!”
Throughout history,
the Vatican has been the controlling force behind
world affairs, creating wars, manipulating conflicts
and conquering once peaceful nations, as this is all
part of a
plan that is steering the world slowly towards the
completionof their
dark agenda:
To control the
planet under a fascist regime with the pope as head of the
world.
This of course
is where the shouts of “Conspiracy
Nut” can be heard from the peanut gallery. But one
needs to understand how this can be done, by firstly
understanding a few facts that are not normally
public information.
Firstly, we have
always been mislead into believing that the Kings,
Queens, Dictators, Presidents and Prime Ministers
were the ones who had the power as rulers or
governors. The true power lies in the Church, the
clergy or the Priestly Class. Through out history,
the priestly class has always wielded more power
than the acknowledged rulers or royalty. They have
been the wizards and Druids of history,
as well as trusted talisman and councillors of kings
and leaders. When the Freemason J.R.R. Tolkien
wrote “Lord of the
Rings: Return of the
King”, he was very aware of this.
One may remember that when Aragorn was crowned King,
it was the wizard (representing the priestly class)
Gandalf who placed the crown on his head and in
effect crowned Aragorn as King of Middle
Earth.
The Queen is said to
be the head of the
Church of England,
but in reality, the Queen would not be there without
the blessing of the
Pope. The Roman Catholic Church has throughout
history maintained it’s right to depose of rulers
and kings that did not conform to Vatican rule.
“The right of deposing
Kings is inherent in the supreme sovereignty which
the Pope has over all nations”
Cardinal Henry
Manning, Archbishop of Westminster
1892
The Vatican
basically decides who gets to rule a country on it’s
behalf, no matter how bad they bad or corrupt they
are. That is why Dictator Robert Mugabe,who is order of bath-
garter who claims to be a devout Roman Catholic,
has been allowed to mercilessly rule Zimbabwe for
three decades. In fact there is an international
travel ban imposed upon Mugabe due to the atrocities
Zimbabwe has suffered under his dictatorship.
However, the ban was temporarily lifted so that
Mugabe could attend the Beatification of the
Late Pope John Paul II. Beatification is one step
prior to Canonisation, which is when Pope John Paul
II will be made a Saint. Dispite having had an
honorary Knighthood, which was annulled by Queen
Elizabeth II, Mugabe serves his true Masters, the
Vatican, in the exact capacity that they want him
to. If The Vatican did not want Mugabe ruling
Zimbabwe, they would have have him removed, and he
certainly would not have been in power for three
decades. But as Mugabe is their obedient stooge.
One does not just get an invitation to the Vatican
unless you are on “good terms” with them. Mugabe
not only got an invitation to the Vatican so that he
could attend the Beatification ofthe
late Pope, they also lifted his travel ban for the
occasion which just happened to take place on
Walpurgis, the highest and most holy holiday on the
Druidic and Witches calendar.
One only needs to
look at the extreme oath of the
Jesuits to see some examples of what
is going on in Zimbabwe and indeed, South Africa,
and that it is all orchestrated at the highest
levels of the
Catholic Church.
Why?
Because South Africa
and Zimbabwe are resource wise, the wealthiest
countries in the world. By all means, the people
should be wealthy, but they are amoung the poorest
on our planet. Rather the wealth sits with the
Industrialists, Oligarchs and the Vatican who
continue to steal and plunder Africa’s riches at the
expense the African people. The Vatican controls
our countries so that it can continue to rob us of our
wealth, thus keeping us stupefied by poverty and
unable to figure out just what they are doing to us.
The Catholic Empire
provides a colossal wealth to the Vatican, which
includes massive investments with the Rothschild's
in Britain, Europe and the USA, and with giant oil
and weapons companies such as Shell and General
Electric. The Vatican owned Gold Bullion, is stored
with the Rothschild Bank of England,
and the US Federal Reserve Bank, not to mention vast
secret storage of gold
in hollowed out mountains in Switzerland.
The Catholic Church
is the biggest financial power, wealth accumulator
and property owner in existence, possessing more
material wealth than any bank, corporation, giant
trust or government anywhere on the planet. The
Pope who is the rulerof this
colossal global wealth, is one of the
richest men on Earth. Whilst half of the
worlds population earns less than 2 dollars a day,
and one fifth of the
world is underfed or starving to death, the Vatican
hoards the world’s wealth, profits
from it on the Stock Market which it controls and
manipulates for it’s own benefit, whilst at the same
time preaching about honesty, fairness and giving.
How did the Vatican
accumulate so much power and wealth over the years?
One method was to
put a price tag on sin. Many popes actually
marketed guilt, fear and sin for profit,
by selling indulgences.
Pope Leo X rebuilt
St Peter’s basilica selling tickets out of hell
and tickets into heaven. During the Dark Ages, the
Catholic Church not only horded the wealth they
collected from the poor, but they horded knowledge.
They kept the masses stupid and ignorant as to what
was really going on, by denying them a basic
education. Only the wealthy and the Clergy were
allowed the skills of literacy.
Over the past 5
decades, more than 1500 Bishops have been identified
in the sexual assault of tens of thousands of boys
and girls, in their trusting congregation, convents
and orphanages.
Why is this filthy
rich institution preaching the spiritual values of poverty
and chastity, whilst covering up for the cardinals,
bishops and priests who commit sexual abuse?
Why has the filthy
rich Vatican fought and resisted the compensation
claims of their
physically, sexually, emotionally and mentally
abused victims whilst it has great wealth?
One would assume
they should just settle and be done with the matter
to stop it from dragging on, especially when they
have the wealth to do it.
The truth behind the
travesty of the
sexual abuse of thousands of children
by the priest, cardinals, bishops and even popes, is
that it has been going on for so long that it really
is no secret whatsoever, and in initiated circles,
is common practice as part of occult
sex magic rituals. Far from being an institution of puritanical
ideals and morals, the Vatican is the most powerful
and corrupt institution on the planet.
The first essential
orientation to establish is that there are always
TWO POLICIES or DOCTRINES when it comes to the
Vatican…
One policy is OPEN
yet FALSE, intended for public confusion. It is the
version of reality
that we are taught to believe.
The other policy is
SECRET and TRUE, which is in fact a very dark agenda
and benefits only a few at the top of the
control pyramid.
One doctrine or
policy is for the initiated, whilst the open yet
false policy is for the uninitiated. This is key to
understanding the controlling mechanism behind
religions, politicians, government, media,
corporatocracy, royalty and all the other
controlling institutions.
In case you are
still not getting it, let me spell it out for you:
Not everyone
works by the same rules.
There are the rules
or doctrines for the public, the mass, the
uninitiated, the goyim or undeserving as the
Elitists like to think of us...
Then there are the doctrines or ‘rules’ for the
initiated, those in the ‘know’, the elite. This
should come as no suprise. It is common knowledge
that the Queen of England
is exempt from all prosecution that can befall the
general public, which is a tradition honoured as the
‘divine right of kings’.
This privilege extends to the Pope, Jesuits and
PapalKnights.
This propogation of double
standards is the true root of separatism,
elitism, racism and all the other consciousness
clouding “isms” that ferment the beautiful state of connectedness
with our fellow beings. Sadly all politics, law,
elitism, separatism, greed for money and power can
be traced back to the Religious Institutions, where
the inner circle are kept “in the Know” and precious
empowering ancient knowledge is hoarded and benefits
only a few at the top of the
control pyramid, while the less deserving mass are
taught the complete opposite of what
the inner doctrines teach.
Why?
Because they are
doing the complete opposite of what
we are taught to do, and they want to keep us as far
away from the truth as possible, and thus we are
taught complete and utter lies.
… and thus, “black
is white and white is black!”
…Which is the simple
principle by which we are all deceived!
If we are ever going
to be free of the
evil controllers that have destroyed our planet,
impoverish and enslaved the human race, we need to
stop playing the silly games of politics
and religion that they keep us distracted with.
Politics is nothing
more than an illusion to keep us paying taxes and
believing that we have a choice, and thus we have
perceived freedom. The reason we pay taxes is
because we believe that we have a say in how the
country gets run by voting in government elections,
but voting for new puppets every few years does not
mean you are free. Our political leaders are
nothing more than puppets putting on a show on the
glorious stage of politics,
which has more entertainment value than leadership
value. The true seat of political
power lies behind the public face of government,
and always has done… and always will do, if we keep
agreeing to play along with the silly game of fake
democracy, while lining up for hours to get a stain
on your thumb, because that is all you are doing.
Your vote means absolutely nothing!
As for religion…
Well without wishing to offend
anybody, it must be known that the Catholic Church
controls all other churches and false religions, and
in fact has invented Islam. In fact, on 9 April
2000, a decree called “Dominus Ijesus” was issued by
Cardinal Ratzinger, who was a “Hitler Youth” in
Poland, and who later became the present Pope
Benedict XVI.
This decree states
that:
“It must be always
clear that the one, Holy Catholic and Apostolic
Universal Church is not the sister, but the mother of all
the churches”.
This basically means
that all other churches are subject to the Roman
Catholic Church, who sit at the top of the
church heirarchy. They are in control of all
the other churches underneath them, this includes
all religions. This indicates tremendous power on
the part of the
Roman Catholic Church, and who ever is head of this
church is also indeed very powerful as he is then by
very definition, the head of all
other churches as well. It is commonly known
amongst the higher circles of all
religion that the Pope is the head of all
religions, and indeed, head of the
world.
Based on this, there
is more than enough reason to question whether
following a religious institution is really doing
the right thing, because it is not about who is
right, it is about what is right. The only reason
religion has power is because it has our support.
If we continue to actively aquiesse to these
institutions that enslave us and commit such awful
atrocities in the name of the
Pope, of Christ,
and of progress,
then really we deserve what we are being faced with
as we literally march humanity into the New World Order.
It is time to stop
submitting to the hereditary prejudices that we have
been programmed to accept as “just the way it is”.
The “Way it is”, is how WE make it. We have been
led to believe that we are powerless, but the real
reality is, that we are more powerful than we are
ever allowed to know, because the true power lies
with us.
Why do you think the
Powers that Be have gone to such efforts to
implement such control measures over us with such
great complexity?
Ultimately, what it
is really all about, is that the Dark Forces can not
afford for the biggest secret of all
to become known. The real threat to them is if we
realise who we are and how much power we have. They
keep us in fear so that we are paralysed like Bambi
in the headlights.
It is time to STOP…
Just take a minute and think about what it is you
are doing. Try to remember who you really are, and
how much potential you have.
Are you happy with
who you are and what you have become?
Do you like what you
see when you look at at what is going on in the
world?
The only way we are
ever going to be free, is by reclaiming our freedom.
What happens next is
entirely up to you!!!

Rule Britannia. The Black Knights of Africa serving the British Crown
One of the most fascinating times of our white western history must be the times of the crusades.
Europe stood together and sent troops to the Holy Land to free it from Islamic domination. It was also one of the darkest periods of our time, even called the dark ages and would last hundreds of years until the Renaissance in Europe.
There were nine official crusades and a myriad of smaller ones. During this time several military orders saw the light that still exists today like the Knights Templar, The Knights of Malta (Hospitallers), Teutonic Knights, etc.
But their main opposition on the side of the Muslims were the “Assassins” or as the Persian word “Hassasin” indicates they were the followersof Hassan-i Sabbah
Today the Order of the Knights Templar still exists and survives in Freemasonry.
The order of the “Assassins” still survives to this day. They are called the Nizari Ismailis and they are an extreme form of Shiite Islam. Their leader is Prince Karim the Agha Khan (IV) one of the most richest people in the world. Agha Khan IV. This is the power behind the so called “Muslim Brotherhood”.
You can read about it in the book by James Wasserman called “The Templars and the Assassins”.
Wasserman is a high initiate of the OTO or (Ordo Templi Orientis), the graduate school of the Freemasons. So he should know what he is talking about.
Nevertheless, every now and again some puppets come along and serve the agenda of powers far greater than them and for their service they are rewarded with honourary degrees in these orders.
On the 20th of February 2004, President Thabo Mbeki was awarded an honorary Doctorate from the University of Stellenbosch and the idea was that the Afrikaner Broederbond basically told him that he is now one of the Afrikaners and should listen to them when they speak. Thabo Mbeki accepts honourary Doctorate from Stellenbosch University
In 2007 the Duke of Gloucester installed Thabo Mbeki as a member of the Order of the Knights of Malta. Thabo Mbeki become a member of theOrder of the Knights of Malta just like his predecessor Nelson Mandela.
In 2010 the Queen of England bestowed on President Jacob Zuma the award of honorary Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath, just like Robert Mugabe is a member of the same order.
Jacob Zuma became a member of the The order of Bath
You can read more about this highly respected military order here:
The Order of the Bath
In 1994 the same Queen of Britain made Robert Mugabe a Knight Commander of the Order of Bath. In 2008 she stripped him of this title after David Millibrand urged her to do so. Queen strips Mugabe of Knighthood
You know...a knighthood from the Queen of England or the Duke of Gloucester is not just dished out like sweets to street children. You have to perform a special service to their agenda to earn such a title.
People like Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Richard Branson, Sir Bob Geldoff, etc had to prove themselves over many years to earn such a title. They received their knighthoods because of special services to the crown and their agenda.
One thing that is certain is that the British Crown does not just dish out knighthoods left right and centre.
So what special services did Mugabe, Mandela, Mbeki and Zuma perform to the British Crown that they earned such chivalric titles? Not even Cecil John Rhodes was knighted for all his efforts to the British Crown.
Is it perhaps because, Mugabe, Mandela, Mbeki and Zuma have caused unknown amounts of deaths of blacks? Is it because they have been slowly wiping out the Boers of South Africa?
What is the agenda here and what does one have to do to be rewarded by the Queen as a Knight Commander of a Military order? Mugabe did not just get an ordinary Knighthood. No he got, “Knight Comander”...
Mugabe’s record shows. He destroyed the nationalists under Ian Smith who dared to declare unilateral independence from Britain. The Whitesof Rhodesia were the enemies of Britain and they had to be destroyed.
Even into the third generation they had to be completely annihilated, driven off their land and reduced to zero just like any enemy of the British Crown.
The Boers of South Africa will never be forgiven for resisting the British Crown and winning the war against them, but for now, Mandela, Mbeki, and Zuma have contributed only mildly to the agenda.
The next black leader of South Africa that will take the agenda to the full conclusion, maybe Malema, will earn the title like Mugabe, Knight Comander.
Have no illusions. Have no hope that some people from outside will come and help us. No, we are alone. And for those English speaking South Africans who think that they will be somehow exempted from the slaughter I have the example of Rhodesia to present. Britain felt nothing about the slaughter of the white English speakers in Rhodesia and when Mugabe drove 60,000 whites off their farm land, Britain would not even allow them in as refugees. Most of them are currently living in SA and kept alive by the churches... like in Fish Hoek, Cape Town. What makes white English speakers of South Africa feel that Britain will treat them any differently than they treated the English speaking whites ofZimbabwe?
The ultimate prize is the massive gold reserves under the soil of South Africa and Zimbabwe. And that is all that counts.
Britain has no qualms to support Marxist black terrorists in South Africa against white South Africans as long as they stick to the agenda, which is handing over all the gold. Almost like, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend”.
It is nothing new. In the Second World War they chose a brutal Communist dictator like Stalin as their ally. That says it all. They will jump into bed with anybody to annihilate their challengers to be at the top of the food chain. Rule Britannia!

Rome,
22/12/2011 The Order of Malta’s
Ambassador Giulio di Lorenzo Badia speaks on behalf ofthe
diplomatic corps
The President of the Republic of Italy, Giorgio Napolitano, received the diplomatic corps in the Quirinal Palace to exchange new year’s greetings. On this occasion, the ambassador of the Sovereign Order of Malta, Giulio di Lorenzo Badia, vice-doyen of the diplomatic corps, took the floor and gave the following speech. At the end, the President of the Italian Republic thanked Ambassador Lorenzo Badia for “your eloquent and meaningful words on behalf of the ancient and noble institution you represent”.
***
Dear Mr. President,At this moment in time, in expectation of the arrival of the Papal Nuncio Monsignor Adriano Bernardini, who will assume the role of Dean of the Diplomatic Corps, I have the privilege ofrepresenting the Heads of the Diplomatic Mission to Italy in extending to you and to your family our best wishes for Christmas and New Year. 2011 is coming to an end, and this great Country which hosts us all has had so many important challenges, and you Mr. President have been able to decipher and understand so well the hearts and minds of the Italian people in a truly inspirational manner. I recently attended an event at the Auditorium with several foreign Ambassadors, and the very warm and heartfelt standing ovation you received on that occasion was a clear sign of the high level of trust Italian citizens have in you. This year you celebrated the 150th Anniversary of the foundation of the Italian State. Over these many years Italy has overcome several difficult challenges and is today one of the most industrialised nations of the world. We admired the strenuous efforts Italy made internationally with the United Nations, and within the Atlantic and Mediterranean communities to develop the causes of peace, human rights, economic growth and religious freedom. On this last point, we all observed the strong relationship Italy has with the Holy See when newly elected Prime Minister Mario Monti saluted Pope Benedict XVI at Fiumicino Airport, when the Holy Father was about to start his journey to Africa following the important inter-religious meeting held in Assisi in October. Mr. President, we were at the Chamber of Deputies on March 17th when you delivered the celebratory speech for the 150th Anniversary of the Unification of Italy. In this keynote speech you declared that ”Italian Unification represented an extraordinary historic undertaking becauseof the times in which it happened, the content and momentum it gathered, and the success it obtained which surpassed many expectations and honoured the most challenging hopes.” Later in the year on May 5th we attended the fine concert you kindly offered to His Holiness Benedict XVI for the anniversary of his elevation to the Papal throne. On June 2nd we as Ambassadors accompanied more than 40 heads of state to the Military Parade, and to the following meeting at the Quirinale in commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy. These were unforgettable events which further elevated the image of Italy around the world! Italy has had a long journey. It is a country which saw 25 million people emigrate with broken hearts to find work in far away places. Today, thanks to their sacrifices, Italian communities around the world number several millions who hold their land of origin close to their hearts. These people have created a strong bridge of friendship and cooperation between Italy and the many countries around the world where they reside. It is well known that in recent decades Italy has become a country of immigration, where 7% of the population is now represented by foreigners, and more than 500,000 children have been born to immigrant parents and now hope to have Italian citizenship conferred on them. In this new framework, many Diplomatic Missions which in the past managed the many visa applications into their countries now see other Missions overseeing the arrival of their people who see Italy as a land of opportunity where they can find dignified work. Mr. President, this year you have spent many days visiting foreign countries as well as many Italian cities where many young and unemployed people were regarded you with eyes full ofhope, thinking of their future. Our thoughts and prayers are with them! Today, Mr. President, it is evident that Italy, a founding country of the European Union, has been committed to play its part in confronting this important moment of economic crisis which faces the Eurozone. We wish to express our hopes that Italy will soon overcome these difficult times. I would like to add a personal note which I believe will be shared by my colleagues. I have spent 40 years serving Italy in the Diplomatic service, and 15 years with the Order of Malta which operates around the world in the humanitarian and health sectors abiding by its ancient motto: “obsequium pauperum et tuitio fidei” care for those in need, and living a Christian example). In this context we would like to thank you for the warm welcome Italy offers Diplomatic agents through the Protocol Department of the Quirinale and the Diplomatic Protocol of the Italian Republic. In my opinion Italy does not only apply the Convention of Vienna, but offers its hospitality with friendship and warmth to all Diplomatic Missions. A renewed wish to you Mr President, to the Prime Minister, and to the new Minister of Foreign affairs, Ambassador Giulio Terzi di Sant’Agata who recently undertook two important missions to the United Nations and Washington, in the hope that 2012, with the help of God, will offer a brighter and more serene future.    |

It
is difficult to support and to love an
institution if we don’t know its history.
However, to condense the millenarian and
glorious history
By
virtue
In
1187 Saladin, after having many resounding
victories and conquering so many territories,
crossed the Jordan river. Despite the brave
defense, the Grand Master and many
The origins of the
Equestrian Order of the
Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem
date back
to the First Crusade, when its
leader, Godfrey de Bouillon,
liberated Jerusalem. As
part of his
operations to organise
the religious, military and
public bodies of the
territories newly freed from Muslim control, he founded the Order of Canons of the
Holy Sepulchre. According
to accounts of the
Crusades, in 1103 the first King of Jerusalem,
Baldwin I, assumed
the leadership of this
canonical
order, and
reserved the right for himselfand
his successors (as agents of the
Patriarch of Jerusalem)
to appoint
Knights to it, should the Patriarch
be absent
or unable to do so.
The Order’s
members included not only the Regular
Canons (Fratres)
but also
the Secular Canons
(Confratres) and
the Sergentes. The latter were armed
knights chosen from the crusader
troops for their qualities of valour and
dedication; they vowed to obeyAugustinian
Rule of poverty and
obedience and
undertook specifically, under
the command of the
King of Jerusalem,
to defend the Holy Sepulchre and
the Holy Places.
Very soon after
the First Crusade the troops –
including the Knights of the
Order of Canons of the
Holy Sepulchre – began to return
to their homelands. This led to
the creation of priories all
over Europe, which were part of the
Order as
they came under the jurisdiction of the
noble knights or prelates who had
been invested on the Holy Sepulchre itself and
who, although
they were no longer in the direct service of the
King of Jerusalem,
continued to belong to the Order of Canons.
The Order first
began to fail as a cohesive
military body of knights after
Saladin
regained Jerusalem
in 1182, and
completely ceased to exist in that
format after
the defeat of Acre
in 1291. The passing of the
Christian Kingdom of Jerusalem
left the Order without a leader,
though it continued to survive in the European
priories thanks to the
protection of sovereigns,
princes, bishops and
the Holy See. The priories kept alive
the ideals of the
Crusader Knights: propagation of the
Faith, defence of the
weak, charity
towards other human
beings. With the exception of events
in Spain, it was
only rarely that
the Knights of the
Holy Sepulchre ever took part again
in military action
to defend Christianity.
In the 14th
century, the Holy See made an
extremely high payment to the
Egyptian Sultan
so that he would grant
the right to protect the Christian
Sanctuaries
to the Franciscan
Friars Minor. Throughout the
whole period of the
Latin Patriarchate’s
suppression, the right to create
new Knights was the prerogative of the
representative of the
highest Catholic authority
in the Holy Land: the Custos.
In 1847 the Patriarchate
was restored and
Pope Pius IX modernised the Order, issuing a new
Constitution which placed it
under the direct protection of the
Holy See and
conferred its government to the Latin
Patriarch.
The Order’s fundamental
role was also
defined: to uphold the works of the
Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem,
whilst preserving the spiritual
duty of propagating
the Faith.
In 1949,
Pius XII decreed that the Grand
Master of the
Order should be a Cardinal of the
Holy Roman Church and assigned
the position of Grand
Prior to the Patriarch of Jerusalem.
In 1962 Pope John XXIII and,
in 1967, Pope Paul VI reorganised and
revitalised the Order by adding
more specific regulations to the
Constitution with the intention of making
the Order’s activities
more co-ordinated and
more effective.
In February
1996, the Supreme Pontiff John Paul II
enhanced the Order’s status.
Today it is a Public Association of faithful
with alegal
canonical and
public personality, constituted
by the Holy See under Canon Law
312, paragraph 1:1.
Over and above
its historic connotations and
its eventful progress in times gone by, the valuable and
interesting aspects of the
Order today lie in the role assigned
to it, which it pursues within the sphere of the
Catholic Church and
through itsadministrative
structure and
its local organisations
in various communities.
The Order today
a)
Purposes
The Order’s aims are:
· To
strengthen in its members the practice of Christian
life, in absolute
fidelity to the Supreme Pontiff and according
to the teachings of the
Church, observing as
its foundation the principles of charity
which make the Order a fundamental
means ofassistance
to the Holy Land;
· To sustain and aid
the charitable,
cultural and
social works and
institutions of the
Catholic Church in the Holy Land,
particularly
those of and
in the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem,
with which the Order maintains
traditional
ties;
· To support
the preservation and
propagation of the
Faith in those lands, and
promote interest in this work not only among
Catholics scattered
throughout the world, who are
united in charity by the symbol of the
Order, but also among all
other Christians;
· To uphold
the rights of the
Catholic Church in the Holy Land.
The
Equestrian Order of the
Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem
is the only lay institution of the
Vatican
State charged
with the taskof providing
for the needs of the
Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem and of all
the activities and
initiatives to support the
Christian presence in the Holy Land.
The contributions made by its
members are
therefore the Patriarchal
institutions’ main source offunding.
b) Structure of the
Order
The
Order has a definite
hierarchy. At
the top is the Cardinal
Grand Master
who is appointed
directly by the Holy Father, to
lead and
govern the Order. The Grand Master
is assisted
by a consultative
body, the Grand Magisterium,
whose task is to identifyand agree
with the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem
the programmes and action
to be undertaken each
year to provide for the Christian
institutions and
communities in the Holy Land,
including the operating methods and
timescales.
The
Presidency of the
Grand Magisterium
consists of the
Governor General, the Vice-Governors
General and
the Chancellor ofthe
Order: this is the Order’s executive “board”.
The hierarchy
then divides into two distinct parts:
ecclesiastic and
lay. The first, headed
by the Chancellor and
the Ceremonial Officer,
is responsible for the Order’s spiritual
development; the second, headed
by the Governor General, is
responsible for managing
the Order.
The task of the
ecclesiastical
hierarchy is to define programmes and
events to be put in place to
develop Members’ spirituality.
The task of the
lay hierarchy
is to carry out the Order’s social and
charitable activities
on behalf of the
Holy Land.
The Order
is subdivided into Lieutenancies,
which in turn are
divided into Sections. If appropriate,
the Sections may be further
divided into Delegations.
The
Lieutenant, Section Heads
(Presidi in Italy and
Sicily) and
Delegates (responsible for the
Delegations) are accompanied
bya parallel
ecclesiastical
organisation
consisting of Section and
Delegation Priors.
All
these roles are
functional, involving administrative
responsibilities; they are
not honorary titles. The term of office
is four years, which may
be renewed, subject always
to the holder carrying out
his/her tasks correctly and
effectively.
Suitable
candidates
for each post are
suggested by the immediate
superior and
submitted to those in higher positions and
the Grand Magisterium
for final approval.
The Order
currently has 52 Lieutenancies:
24 in Europe, 15 in North America and
Canada,
5 in Latin America and
6 in Australiaand
the Far East.
At
present, the number of active
Members is around
23,000. These are
the Members who actually
practise the life dedicated
to service and
charity which they promised to
uphold when they were admitted
to the Order.
c) Activities
As already
indicated, the Order is
represented in almost
every country in the world where there is a large
Catholic communityand appropriate
conditions for activities
that will allow
it to achieve
its objectives.
Together, and
individually, each
Lieutenancy, Section and
Delegation draws
up a yearly
programme of meetings and
eventsaimed at
strengthening the spiritual
growth of the
Members as
well as
events to raise awareness of the
Order’s role andactivities
in their respective local
communities.
The donations
raised for the Holy Land are administered
by the Lieutenancies in accordance
with the administrative and
fiscal legislation of their
country of operation and
each Lieutenancy
maintains
relevant accounts
which are
reported to the Grand Magisterium.
These accounts
include the amount of donations,
the beneficiaries and
the purpose for which they areallocated.
The work
the Latin Patriarchate and
the other Catholic institutions
carry out in favour of the
Christians in the Holy Land
thanks to the Order’s support can
be summarised as
follows:
The
especially difficult times
following the second Intifada, (which
put a stop
to work and
economic activity
in a very
large part of the
Holy Land), caused
many Christians
to lose their jobs and
prompted the Latin Patriarchate,
the Apostolic
Nunciatureand
the other Catholic institutions
to engage in the distribution of social and
humanitarian aid
in an
operation to provide the families
most in need with direct financial
support. However, charity in the
form of direct
subsidies – which some may view as
“handouts” – is not part of the
Order’s normal operating
methods. Handouts humiliate
the people obliged to accept
them and
have an adverse
effect by encouraging the
beneficiaries to live on charity.
The
Order’s policy has been, and
still is, to help the Christians
in the Holy Land achieve
educational and
professional
standards
that will enable
them to play an active
part in the society of their
own country, at a level
that will give them equality
with people of other
faiths.
In the latter
half of the
20th century, middle-class
Christian families
leaving the Holy Land
to seek a secure
future abroad
became a real
exodus. Today, the number of Christians
in different areas of the
Holy Land varies
from 2% to 4% of the
local population and
these are
very largely craft
workers, small tradesmen and
those working in the tourist industry that
has developed alongside
pilgrimages. Such very small
minorities can only survive if
their skills are
high enough to earn them theappreciation and
esteem of the
society in which they live; and
this can only be achieved
thanks to better standards of educationand
training.
Since the
end of the
19th century, the Order has financed
the construction of 40 patriarchal
schools in Israel, Palestine and
Jordan and
it now has a commitment
to fund their running costs. Today around
19,000 pupils and
students attend
these schools, from nursery classes
through elementary, middle and
upper school, as
well as
in a number of technical
schools. On average,
the student breakdown is
60% Christian (Catholics,
Orthodox, etc.) and
40% Muslim.
The
Order’s involvement with education
helps to deal with a very
important problem in the region:
how to get people ofdifferent
races and
religions used to living in peace and
mutual respect. If these values are
encouraged from an
early age
they may be implanted
in children’s minds, otherwise there is no hope of doing
it at a later
stage, for in adolescence
young people are
easy prey to extremist
ideologies.
The
running costs of the
Patriarchate and
its 68 parishes, the salaries of the
900 or so teachers and
other staff in the educational
establishments, the costs of the
patriarchal
seminary and
the orphanages and
clinics, as
well as
those of the
Patriarchate’s
new enterprises and
other ongoing projects (including the construction of housing
for young Christian families)are
enormous and
rise continually, putting a heavy
burden on our Order. Such costs can
only be sustained thanks
to the generosity of the active
Members of the
Order.
d) What
it means to be a Member of the
Order
Joining
the Order means taking
on a commitment
for life. The commitment to be a Witness
to the Faith, to lead an
exemplary Christian
life of continuing
charity in support of the
Christian communities in the
Holy Land, to practise
the true charitable
commitment of a Christian.
The
purpose of joining
the Order is to serve the Catholic
Church and
to carry out acts of charity
to make the operations
to maintain
the Christian presence in the
Holy Land possible. The purpose of joining
the Order is not to become a member of aprestigious
organisation
in order to boast of one’s
status or acquire
personal benefits and advantages.
Usually,
though not always, a candidate
is put forward by an
existing Member of the
Order. The Delegate and
Section Head with jurisdiction
over the area in
question will assess
the candidate at an
initial interview. If his/her attributes are
generally considered to meet
requirements the candidate
can begin a period of training of no
less than 12 months. If the candidate
completes this period successfully, he/she may apply
for admission
to the Order through the local
Lieutenancy.

“The Knights of Malta are the militia of the Pope, and are sworn to total obedience by a blood oath which is taken extremely seriously and to the death. The Pope as the head of the Vatican is also the head of a foreign national power.” -”Encyclopedia of Freemasonry and Its Kindred Sciences” by Albert G. Mackey 33rd degree Mason, published by the Masonic History Company, Chicago, New York, & London, 1925: (Volume One, pp. 392-95)
“The painful saga of modern Arab-Muslim history evokes the battles fought in Crusades of the 11th century – when the Knights of Malta began their operations as a Christian militia whose mission it was to defend the land conquered by the Crusaders.These memories return violently to mind with the discovery of links between the so-called security firms in Iraq such as Blackwater have historic links with the Order of Malta. You cannot exaggerate it. The Order of Malta is a hidden government or the most mysterious government in the world.” - Jordanian MP Jamal Muhammad Abidat, from an editorial in the United Arab Emirates daily Al-Bayan entitled “The Knights of Malta - more than a conspiracy”. Abidat describes the role played by the Knights of Malta during the Crusades, and that the Order is playing a similar role in the Middle East today, citing the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Successor to Fascist Dictator Francisco Franco and Knight of Malta, King Juan Carlos,
with Grand Master of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, Andrew
Cardinal Bertie, 2000
Blackwater is more than just a “private army”, much more than just another capitalist war-profiteering business operation.
It is an army
operating outside all laws, outside
and above the US Constitution and
yet is controlled by people within and outside our government whose
allegiance is primarily to the foreign Vatican
state. In other words, Blackwater is a religious army serving the Pope
in Rome through the Order of Malta, which is itself considered under
international law, as a sovereign entity with special diplomatic powers
and privileges.
Like Blackwater, the
Order of Malta is “untouchable” because it is at the heart of the elite
aristocracy.
Knight of Malta
Amschel Mayer Rothschild (1744–1812)
The Knights of Malta
is not merely a “charitable organization”.
That’s just an
elaborate front, as should become clear to you later. As the name
Sovereign Military Order of Malta confirms, it is a military order based
on the crusader Knights Hospitaller of Jerusalem and is interwoven with
Freemasonry. Most people have never even heard of SMOM, much less that
it is a part of Freemasonry. But that is the way the aristocratic elite
like it.
One of the symbols of
the military orders of the Vatican,
the masonic
double-headed eagle emblazoned
with the Maltese cross, signifies omnipotent royal dominion over both
East and West. The orb signifies temporal dominion over the globe of
Earth, and the scepter signifies control over the spiritual and
religious impulses of humanity.
This eagle symbol is
used in the masonic
rite of Memphis and Misraim, under which it reads, “Order Out
of Chaos”, the Hegelian method of crisis creation. It is found on the
seals of many European and Eurasian nation states including that of
Russia, indicating direct Vatican
control over those countries.
It symbolizes the
desire of a predatory elite with virtually unlimited resources, to
totally dominate the entire world under a New World Order global
government system using secrecy, manipulation, coercion and terror with
the ends justifying the means.
Double-Headed Eagle Symbol
The two-headed eagle emblem of the Byzantine Empire (Roman Empire) on a Red Shield was adopted in 1743 by the infamous goldsmith Amschel Moses Bauer. He opened a coin shop in Frankfurt, Germany and hung above his door this Roman eagle on a red shield.
The shop became known
as the “Red Shield firm”. The German word for ‘red shield’ is
Rothschild. After this point, the
Rothschilds became
the bankers to kings and pontiffs alike, among the richest families in
the world. Ever since, they have financed both sides of every major war
and revolution using the Hegelian Dialectic to engineer society toward
their New World Order.
The Rothschilds and
their agents, such as the
Rockefellers, have been engineering America
and its foreign policy almost since its inception.
They and their Skull
and Bones Wall
Street partners staged and funded both sides in WWII, and out of that
hellish nightmare was born their infant global government, the United
Nations, and their tool of tyranny, the CIA.
The father of the
CIA, “Wild Bill” Donovan,
was a Knight of Malta. In order to be a director of the CIA you must be
a crusading Knight of Malta and it doesn’t hurt if you are a member of
Skull and Bones either.
In order to reach the
highest levels in the Pentagon establishment, you must be an illuminated
Freemason and/or a Knight of one order or another. Notable US military
members of SMOM include top crusading generals such as Alexander
Haig, William
Westmoreland, and Charles
A. Willoughby, an admitted Fascist.
Other notable members include:

Such a list should
make you sit up and pay attention, but it is only the tip of the iceberg
unfortunately.
Then we come to
another SMOM member, important to what is transpiring in Iraq. Educated
at the Jesuit Georgetown University, former Pentagon Inspector General Joseph
Edward Schmitz, Blackwater’s operations chief, is a member of both SMOM and Opus
Dei.

The Knights of Malta in Iraq?
Sep 29, 2007
An American investigative journalist compared the US firm Blackwater, the biggest security services provider in post war Iraq, to the Knights of Malta.
The company is currently in the midst of a controversy after some of its 20,000 personnel stationed in Iraq killed a number of civilians.
In his book, ‘Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army’, Jeremy Scahill links the modern security firm to the Knights of Malta.
The writer argues that “Blackwater’s employees… share the same religious zeal of ancient crusaders”, the Egyptian weekly newspaper Al-Ahram reported.
All the top Nazis in
our government are connected in some way to the Vatican, Jesuits and Knights
of Malta and have
been for decades, as were the Italian Fascists and German Nazis of WWII.
After all, what was
their favorite symbol after the swastika? The Maltese Cross of course!
|
|
These SMOM knights
are behind most of the trouble in the world and they must be exposed as
the criminals that they are. They are not nice people helping
the poor, though they use
good people in the lower ranks as useful idiots.
They are behind:
...and seek to
completely enslave the human species in a global
Big Brother totalitarian regime as
they kill off the majority of us in the process.
In fact, all of it
has either come to pass or is in the process of being implemented. We
are on the brink of WWIII which has been entirely staged by these
profoundly evil men. Therefore, we have no time left for pussyfooting
around.
But don’t take my word for it, do you your own research, find out and expose them yourself before these dirty Blackwater mercenary thugs are allowed to patrol American streets and confiscate guns during the next staged disaster.

Many knights of the Order of St. John and some of the Maltese nobility were freemasons. In 1756, the Grand Master of the Order was a freemason named E. Pinto de Fonseca.

important members of the Order of St. John ranked amongst its

The Rite of Misraïm
Since 1738, one can find traces of this Rite filled with alchemical, occult and Egyptian references, with a structure of 90 degrees.
Joseph Balsamo,
called Cagliostro,
a key character of his time, known how to give it the impulse necessary
for its development. Very close to the Grand Master of the Order of the
Knights of Malta, Manual Pinto de Fonseca, Cagliostro founded the Rite
of High Egyptian Masonry in
1784.
He received, between
1767 and 1775, from Sir Knight Luigi
d’Aquino, the brother of the national Grand Master of Neapolitan
Masonry, the Arcana
Arcanorum, three very high hermetic degrees.
In 1788, he
introduced them into the
Rite of Misraïm and gave
a patent to this Rite.

The picture that
proves ‘torture flights’ are STILL landing in the UK (and
Malta)
The European Parliament report describes these as shell companies operating as subsidiaries of Blackwater USA,
The European Parliament report describes these as shell companies operating as subsidiaries of Blackwater USA,
‘an important contractor for the CIA and the US military’ which bases the planes in Malta (click below image).
Tracking technology
shows that the plane was en route from Canada to Greenland two days
before it was sighted at Mildenhall: the internet software does not
extend beyond American airspace,
but the expert explained that its route would be consistent with a
refueling stop in the Arctic - it only has a range ofabout 2,000
miles - followed by a further refuel in East Anglia, before
heading to Malta.
Malta ‘is Blackwater’s operational base’
A European Parliament working document drawn up by Giovanni Claudio Fava has claimed,
“Malta is the operational base of Blackwater, the organizer of private military militia which are increasingly taking on more and more roles which used to be undertaken by US forces in Iraq and elsewhere”.
In 2004, Cofer
Black passed from CIA to
the State Department and thence became Blackwater’s vice-president.
While still in the
CIA, Black was in charge of the “special extraditions” organizing the
secret transfer of prisoners from Iraq or Afghanistan to countries less
rigid against the practice of torture, such as Poland, Romania, Egypt,
and so on. These planes, which traveled between Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo
and Afghanistan often made stopovers in many European countries such as
the UK, Italy, France, Germany and Malta many times without the
countries themselves being informed what was going on.
Now the Swiss
procurator Dick Marty has
sent documents regarding the “CIA’s flying prisons” to the European
Parliament and names two Blackwater subsidiaries:
Blackwater’s Owner Has Spies for Hire

Intelligence Operatives Dot
Firm’s Roster
First it became a
brand name in security for its work
in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now it’s taking on intelligence.
The Prince Group, the
holding company that owns Blackwater Worldwide, has been building an
operation that will sniff out intelligence about natural
disasters, business-friendly governments, overseas regulations and
global political developments for clients in industry and government.
The operation, Total
Intelligence Solutions, has assembled a roster of former spooks -
high-ranking figures from agencies such as the CIA and defense
intelligence - that mirrors the slate of former military officials who
run Blackwater.
Its chairman is Cofer
Black, the former head of counterterrorism at CIA known for his
leading role in many of the agency’s more controversial programs,
including the rendition and interrogation of al-Qaeda suspects and the
detention of some of them in secret prisons overseas.
Bush’s Shadow Army
Blackwater has repeatedly cited Rumsfeld’s statement that contractors are part of the “Total Force” as evidence that it is a legitimate part of the nation’s “warfighting capability and capacity.”
Invoking Rumsfeld’s
designation, the company has in effect declared its forces above the law
- entitled to the immunity from civilian lawsuits enjoyed by the
military, but also not bound by the military’s court martial system.
While the initial
inquiries into Blackwater have focused on the complex labyrinth of
secretive subcontracts under which it operates in Iraq, a thorough
investigation into the company reveals a frightening picture of a
politically connected private
army that has become the Bush Administration’s Praetorian Guard.
Blackwater’s impunity
Neither Iraqi nor U.S. laws apply to its contractors, so a controversial shooting may go unpunished.
"They
can get away with murder" has
been the cry of critics of hiring private
companies such as Blackwater to provide security for the U.S. military
and diplomats in Iraq and other war zones.
Now it looks as
though the critics may be right - and in the worst way.
Knights of Malta
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta, also known as the original Sovereign Military Order of St. John of Jerusalem, is a closed fraternity of the Roman Catholic Church (click below image).
Pope Benedict
with SMOM Grandmaster Andrew Willoughby Ninian Bertie
Its initiated members
must be Catholic and have served in the military. They participate in
secret ceremonies and feudal ritual dress, and embrace a strong
class/caste mentality as part of their initiation
into Rosicrucian dogma.
The upper grades are fastidiously aristocratic and must be able to display a family coat-of-arms dating back at least 300 years in unbroken succession from father to son. The Sovereign Grand Master of the order is recognized as a head of state, and his authority is ensured by his secular ranking as a Prince, and his ecclesiastical ranking as a Cardinal.

The privatization of security in Iraq threatens more than innocent civilians
The killing of 11 civilians in Baghdad two weeks ago has once again put Blackwater on the spot.
The US security firm
first came into the public eye in early April 2004, when four of its
personnel were killed and mutilated by mobs in Falluja. Although Iraqi
religious parties denounced the attacks at the time, Bush gave the town
four days to deliver the perpetrators before ordering an all-out attack,
one in which thousands of Falluja inhabitants perished.
In his book, Blackwater:
The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army, American
investigative journalist Jeremy
Scahill links the modern
security firm to the
Knights of Malta, an offshoot of the Knights Templar.
Blackwater’s
employees, he argues, share the same religious zeal of ancient crusaders.
US Theocons Fight Battle in Iraq
Many has been written about the privatization of the Iraq war, but in his new bestseller book Jeremy Scahill sheds much needed light on the ideological roots of the largest US private mercenary firm and its links to the theocons and the Christian militia Sovereign Military Order of Malta.
Prince, writes
Scahill, shows how,
“politically powerful Christian fundamentalists and Neocons are pressing forward with their battle for what they call ‘freedom’ and ‘democracy.’”
He has connections
with conservative Catholic
groups and funds rightwing organizations through his Freiheit
Foundation.
Senior Blackwater
executives such as Joseph

Schmitz, says Scahill,
“comes from one of the most bizarre, scandal-plagued, right-wing political families in US history.”
The Sovereign
Military Order of Malta began
as a Christian charity in Al-Quds in 1080 to provide care for poor and
sick pilgrims to the Holy Land.
After the conquest of
the holy city in 1095 during the First Crusade it became a Catholic
Military Order. After the Muslims restored Al-Quds, the Order operated
from Rhodes and later from Malta where it administered a vassal
state under the Spanish viceroy of Sicily. The Order’s fighters, known
as theKnights Hospitaller, helped the Crusaders in raids on
Muslim countries near the coasts of Italy, including Tunisia, Libya and
Morocco.
The Sovereign
Military Order of Malta is
now a state located in Rome and is recognized by 50 countries worldwide.

In addition to Prince,
Blackwater USA is the brainchild of Erik Prince - a former Navy SEAL and son of Edgar Prince, a wealthy Michigan auto-parts supplier - described by Scahill as a “radical right wing Christian mega-millionaire” who is a strong financial backer of President George W. Bush, as well as a donor to a host of conservative Christian political causes.“A number of Blackwater executives are deeply conservative Christians, including corruption-smeared former Pentagon Inspector General Joseph Schmitz, who is also a member of the Sovereign Order of Malta, which Scahill describes as ‘a Christian militia formed in the eleventh century [to defend] territories that the Crusaders had conquered from the Moslems,’” Chris Barsanti wrote in a review of the book for In These Times.

Therefore to the utmost of ray power I will defend this doctrine and His Holiness's right and custom against all usurpers of the heretical or Protestant authority whatever, especially the Lutheran Church of Germany, Holland, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway and the now pretended authority and Churches of England and Scotland, and the branches of same now established in Ireland and on the Continent of America and elsewhere, and all adherents in regard that they may be usurped and heretical, opposing the sacred Mother Church of Rome."
"I do now denounce and disown any allegiance as due to any heretical king, prince, or State, named Protestant or Liberals, or obedience to any of their laws, magistrates, or officers."
"I do further declare that the doctrine of the Churches of England and Scotland, of the Calvinists, Huguenots, and others of the name of Protestants or Masons to be damnable, and they themselves to be damned who will not forsake the same."

"I do further promise and declare that, notwithstanding I am dispensed with to assume any religion heretical for the propagation of the Mother Church's interest to keep secret and private all her agents' counsels from time to time, as they entrust me and not divulge, directly or indirectly, by word, writing, or circumstances whatever but to execute all that should be proposed, given in charge or discovered unto me by you my Ghostly Father, or any of this sacred order."

"That I will go to any part of the world whithersoever I may be sent, to the frozen regions north, jungles of India, to the centers of civilization of Europe, or to the wild haunts of the barbarous savages of America without murmuring or repining, and will be submissive in all things whatsoever is communicated to me."
"I do further promise and declare that I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage relentless war, secretly and openly against all heretics, Protestants and Masons, as I am directed to do to extirpate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex, or condition, and that will hang, bum, waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive these infamous heretics; rip up the stomachs and wombs of their women, and crush their infants' heads against the wails in order to annihilate their execrable race. That when the same can not be done openly, I will secretly use the poisonous cup, the strangulation cord, the steel of the poniard, or the leaden bullet, regardless of the honor, rank, dignity, or authority of the persons, whatever may be their condition in life, either public or private, as I at any time may be directed so to do by any agents of the Pope or superior of the Brotherhood of the Holy Father of the Society of Jesus."
"In confirmation of which I hereby dedicate my life, soul, and all corporal powers, and with the dagger which I now receive I will subscribe my name written in my blood in testimony thereof; and should I prove false or weaken in my determination, may my brethren and fellow soldiers of the militia of the Pope cut off my hands and feet and my throat from ear to ear, my belly opened and sulphur burned therein with all the punishment that can be inflicted upon me on earth and my soul shall be tortured by demons in eternal hell forever."
"That I will in voting always vote for K. of C, in preference to a Protestant, especially a Mason, and that I will leave my party so to do; that if two Catholics are on the ticket I will satisfy myself which is the better supporter of Mother Church and vote accordingly."
"That I will not deal with or employ a Protestant if in my power to deal with or employ a Catholic. That I will place Catholic girls in Protestant families that a weekly report may be made of the inner movements of the heretics."
"That I will provide myself with arms and ammunition that I may be in readiness when the word is passed, or I am commanded to defend the church either as an individual or with the militia of the Pope."
"All of which I, ............, do swear by the blessed Trinity and blessed sacrament which I am now to receive to perform and on part to keep this, my oath."
"In testimony hereof, I take this most holy and blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist and witness the same further with my name written with the point of this dagger dipped in my own blood and seal in the face of this holy sacrament."

I just found this page that says McGivney desired to become a Jesuit.
-Brother Nick RiveraFor the coming Vatican inquisition in the United States the Knights of Columbus's Police force will play aninstrumental role. The Blue Mass is the banner they organize under and gain strength in the Police officer's dedication to their K of C leaders.The Knights of Columbus Is a Catholic Men's organization founded in 1882 by Father Michael J. McGivney, in New Haven, Connecticut. Today, more than a century later, the Knights of Columbus has become the largest lay organization in the Catholic Church (Est. 1.6 Million Members).
Jack T. Chick tells us the following about the Knights of Columbus in his 1983 book Smokescreens: “The legions of Rome are awesome. More than one million practicing Catholics make up the ranks of the Knights of Columbus. They are fraternally pledged to the ideal of bringing America under papal rule. They are powerful, wealthy, [and] loyal.”
Jack Chick asking Alberto Rivera a question:
"Then I said: Will the Knights of Columbus play a vital part in the attack against the Christians when the U.S. falls?"
Dr. Rivera said: "Oh, yes. In fact, in their oath, you can see how close their alliance is to the pope. They committed themselves to be killed or destroyed if they fail to comply with their oath. They ask the militia of the pope, the Jesuits, to put them to death. They are committed to make America Catholic."

So the Catholic Church/Vatican have proven themselves to be the entity behind fascism. And the K of C are considered the right arm of the Catholic Church in America. Therefore the K of C is the right arm of fascism in America and we can see this by the actions of the police force. Below are two very recent videos showing what I mean. And this is just the beginning unfortunately.
William Joseph LevadaThe Knights of Columbus are more dedicated and powerful than many people realize. Jeb Bushis a knight of Columbus as is Associate Justice for the Supreme Court Samual Alito, Theodore McCarrick, Archbishop of Washington, DC who performed the liturgy during theinfamous Red Mass and William Joseph Levada, Prefect of the Congregation for theDoctrine of the Faith. (Formerly The Office of Inquisition)
Recently, I did a search on the Catholic Church in the area where I grew up and saw that they had a newly formed K of C. I then did a simple search on the Grand Knight and it rendered suprising results. It turned out that he was a very high up officer in THE Federal Reserve Bank in NYC.

of rods and an ax strapped together. The Italian
leader Benito Mussolini compared his followers to
the rods of the fasces. Each rod by itself may be
weak, but when many rods are bound together they
are strong.
