1. How to be progressive in America
As some readers of my previous essays recall, I devoted quite a lot of space to one (possibly principal) agent of imperialism and genocide, namely, Roman Catholicism. Although I made my views clear, I’ll repeat—I am not discussing the RC religious dogma, its theological foundations or the honesty of its followers but its (geo)political dimension which has, for a long time, steered or even governed global affairs. Naturally, this has upset some RC believers who instinctively defend their church—right or wrong. I sympathise with them because the high-level machinations I describe are naturally not well known to the “flock”.[1] However, none of the comments on my previous article on the Vatican in US politics engaged with the substance of what I had written. This is a good sign because it means that I have touched a historical nerve somewhere. In addition, nowhere on the blogosphere—but absolutely nowhere—could one read about the very salient and unchallenged-by-history pattern of imperial and genocidal conquest by the Roman Catholic Church.[2] Again, as is the case with any worldly empire, the few and far between benefits afforded the aborigines are greatly outweighed by the pillage, rapine and suffering. In the case of the Catholic Church, this is especially sickening in the light of the high spiritual and religious principles it espouses (various Protestant sects are also guilty of this if to a lesser extent). So, the deafening silence on this incendiary topic tells me that there is something to my writing and this goes beyond the “left-vs.-right” theatre that the proles in the US and Europe are allowed to participate in as a reward for their indenture.
Also, despite my efforts to proofread my pieces, errors do creep in. I need to explain—writing about politics is cathartic and therapeutic for me—unlike academic writing which I have pursued for many years. I usually knock out 4000+ words in about three hours (sometimes in a single sitting). I do try to remove the most obvious clangers but don’t have the time for the next level of polishing. Why am I saying this? Please, focus on the big picture. I’m a grammar Nazi Reichsmarschall myself but please—don’t miss the forest for the trees. My humble aim is to present to the uninitiated certain topics that have evaded historical scrutiny. Hopefully, my scribbles might encourage them to dig deeper.
I had started on a piece on George Soros when I saw this. It is a photo of Barak Obama surrounded by his intelligence supremos.[3]
The caption added later reads: “President Barack Obama meets with director of National Intelligence James Clapper, right (Alma Mater St. Mary’s University, Texas), in the Oval Office, Sept. 9, 2010. Also attending are, clockwise from left, Robert Cardillo, DIA Deputy Director (and now Director of National Intelligence for Intelligence Integration and schooled at Georgetown), Deputy National Security Advisor Tom Donilon (Donilon attended La Salle Academy, earned a B.A. at the Catholic University of America in 1977 and is connected personally to the Biden family), Rodney Snyder, Senior Director for Intelligence Program, NSS (cannot find any kind of BIO on him), John Brennan, Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism (Attended private catholic schools from his youth, is Alma Mater at Fordham University and is former CIA), and National Security Advisor Gen. James L. Jones (Alma Mater Georgetown University). (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza).
Although I did not check all the biographies, I have little doubt that the above is correct.[4] What does this tell us? Compared with Trump’s enforcement apparatus, this cabal is even more impressive in its religious/ideological zeal and lack of diversity. I am aware of the potential for the abuse of statistics, but what is the probability that five of the heads of the empire’s dark apparatus are RC/Jesuit-educated? Oh, and the key person is missing from the photo. The then-director of the CIA, Leon Panetta is an alumnus of the Jesuit Santa Clara University. I’m pretty sure that I could dig out some more, but never mind. How has something so blindingly obvious escaped scrutiny and censure? What would have happened if all of the above happened to be Jewish—or Protestant? The photo allows one to take a glimpse of the reality behind the crumbling Potemkin-like façade of the American democracy.
What does this mean? First, it is another nail in the coffin of the inane belief that Obama was somehow “left-wing” and progressive. If this destroys the alt-right sales pitch which attempts to paint itself as fundamentally different from the genocidal neolib, neocon fake left (and vice versa) so much the better. Obama’s and Trump’s foreign policies are controlled by the same people. Second, it confirms the idea the United States is the ideological inheritor of the Third Reich (sans the persecution of the Jews). Here, Obama is surrounded by a Jesuit council of war—a sinister camarilla responsible for the killing, maiming and spying on millions of people throughout the world. Barak Obama dropped more bombs on innocent people than… fill in the rest. These are not regular Joes who happened accidentally to partake in the fine education provided by the Jesuit (and other) fathers. Rather, they are zealous Roman Catholics who were groomed (excuse the pun) from early days for senior positions in the CIA, FBI and other nefarious three-letter agencies that guarantee the survival of America’s bloated empire.
These people (and not nobodies such as Victoria Nuland or Geoffrey Pyatt) were behind the bloody putsch in the Ukraine—and in this post I shall provide some historical reasoning behind this bold and possibly fatal move. Before I continue, I wish to stress that the overthrow of the dithering oligarch Yanukovich by the CIA and Western Ukrainian fascists (and supported by a number of Jewish oligarchs and politicians) was one of the key events in modern history and a possible prelude to WWIII. The fact that president Putin partly parried the fascist offensive cannot erase the bitter truth that the forces of Mordor are now closer to Moscow than they’ve been since the summer of 1941 (SOMETHING THAT NO-ONE IS PREPARED TO DISCUSS). Obama’s council of war is the modern version of the medieval Ritters’ councils that planned and executed one anti-Russian crusade after another. These Knights of the Oval Office are ostensibly relaxed, accustomed to selling poisonous lies to their grateful “Commander-in-Chief”.
In my previous article, I mentioned how Roman Catholicism has succeeded in positioning itself as THE Christian faith in America due to its ubiquity and power. Various Protestant churches are too divided, weak and mutually conflicted to offer any kind of pushback. The situation is even worse with the plethora of Orthodox Churches in America. They are either co-opted by the intelligence apparatus or silenced and threatened for their suspected links with Russia. Consequently, even when something as extraordinary as this happens, it is countered by—oh, the Jesuits are solid Christians, they have excellent schools etc. Does that mean that the Protestants or the Orthodox aren’t Christian? Don’t the Protestants have some good universities? Not a single Yale or Harvard man/woman? OK, Obama ticks the diversity box but still—there is no explanation for the prevalence of the sons of Loyola at the summit of US power. Or rather, there is no explanation that will not transport one warp-like to the galaxy of conspiracy theories involving the Jesuits. Everybody knows that Jews have been expelled from many countries. How many people know that the same happened to the Jesuits and that they often earned the wrath of kings, emperors and even popes for their meddling, subterfuge, sabotage and plotting—always with the aim of strengthening the hand of the Catholic Church (as they saw it) and weakening its enemies. From the perspective of their patrons, the problem was never their aim but their methods which caused political frictions, international tensions and religious strife.
Since long before its “independence”, the Ukraine has been a haven for two types of Russophobe. On the one hand, a number of Ukrainian Jews—especially rich ones—have used the country as a springboard for a campaign against Russia proper. Due to political circumstances, they could only assert themselves fully after the downfall of the Soviet Union, once the memory of the wholesale salvation of the European Jews by the Red Army sufficiently faded from the memories of younger generations. The Saker has offered many excellent analyses of how this came about. Here, we only need to remember Igor Kolomoisky, a porcine Russophobe and notorious oligarch whose fiefdom around Dnepropetrovsk has been the central hub for the bloody fascist vendetta on the Donbas and who to this day has not received his just desserts. Thus, I am not trying to whitewash the Jewish role in the weaponization of Ukrainian nationalism. I am very much aware of it and this is a topic which deserves its own separate article. As a matter of fact, I discuss one of the principal funders of the Ukrainian disaster and who happens to be Jewish in my previous article. Yet the photo above reminded me that I haven’t finished the previous (and as far as I can see the main) story. Although I cannot hope to get to the end of this never-ending saga, I need to say a bit more on the second form of Russophobia before I embark on discussing its psychological roots.
We are still at the stage of primary analysis of the geopolitical situation. By this, I mean that the present crisis is still too fresh and unpredictable to be fully comprehended. Without a careful observation of different factors that have contributed to the current global impasse we cannot hope to arrive at novel solutions to the plethora of problems we are currently facing. Clearly, the first step is drawing analogies with the past. After all, memories (and records) are the only referent we have in judging the present. Looking at the above photo, I asked myself: If it was the Jews that were mainly responsible for the Nazification of the Ukraine, what are all these Jesuits doing around Obama? There is no doubt that the Jews played an important part—but why hasn’t ANYBODY EVER questioned this black-clad elephant in the Oval Room? Whoever might have been the executor of the coup, there is only one constant here—a bloody thread that weaves through the Russian and European history. Who are these defenders of the “Western civilisation” and what role did they play in turning the Ukraine into a Cerberus of the Empire?
The story of the Ukraine is a complex one. Its (fragile and largely artificial) national identity was constructed through the centuries of struggle between Russia and the Polish/Lithuanian commonwealth, the Ottoman empire and various Moslem tribes from Southern Russia. Rather than expound on this, I will just note that the Polonisation and conversion to Catholicism of large swaths of the Western borderlands of Russia did a great deal to erode and ultimately extinguish the sense of Russian identity in the long-suffering population. It was mainly Polish Jesuits that were tasked with “capturing the souls” of the heathen barbarians inhabiting the borderlands thus destroying their bond with the native land (note the contempt in which both the Jews and Jesuits hold the Orthodox inhabitants of Western Russia). Especially zealous in implementing this vampiric geopolitical strategy were Andrzej Bobola and Josaphat Kuntsevich (not a Jesuit but nevertheless). Forced conversions of pre-Christian Slavs of the North-Western Europe had been horrible and unforgivable, but now, these “black parachutists of the Pope” embarked on a crusade against fellow Christians.[5]
Much like their more modern Croat, Vietnamese or Hutu brethren, they implemented a scorched Earth policy, killing, converting or expelling Orthodox Russians from their villages (mainly in Byelorussia). However, as every good story, this one had a happy ending (at least temporarily). Both Kuntsevich and Bobola were sent to hell by the enraged subjects of their ministrations. Interestingly, local Protestants also seem to have been involved in the former’s elimination. This of course immediately earned Kuntsevich sainthood—at least in the Vatican’s warped moral universe.[6] His death was followed by the murder of hundreds of Orthodox Russians who were unwilling to betray their faith. The Jesuit Bobola, who has been the patron saint of Poland since 2002 was the notorious “soul catcher” of the Borderlands. His job was to use his Jesuitical methods in order to sell the criminal Empire that is the RCC as true Christianity to the frightened and helpless peasants. He employed threats, bribery, chicanery etc. to deprive the Orthodox of access to their churches and priests. Fortunately, the Cossacks of Bogdan Khmelnitsky caught up with the criminal Jesuit and after he refused to renounce Catholicism and adopt Orthodoxy, they sent him to the seventh circle of hell. Even the Vatican was so embarrassed by his actions that it waited almost 300 years to beatify him.
The Jesuits on the other hand, learned their lesson well. A bloody crusade was not likely to work on people who opposed it with conviction forged by faith. To counter this, they came up with the ultimate con. Instead of trying to install priests and laymen who wore the uniforms of the regular troops (protected by the Geneva Convention), they created a sabotage division (a la The Brandenburg Regiment) which wore enemy’s uniforms, used his language, rituals and sacral architecture. The priests wore beards, were allowed to marry and crossed themselves “properly”. Icons were venerated and services in Church Slavonic were introduced. What was not so obvious was that these black paratroopers were loyal sons of the Pope (and Loyola). By gradually infiltrating the religious life of what was to become the Western Ukraine, they (and not the Jews) played the principal role in creating the artificial Ukrainian identity. In spite of its relatively small size, the Greek Catholic or Uniate Church has been one of the most effective anti-Russian forces in modern history.[7]
That this is a universal strategy of the Catholic Church can be seen from the examples of the Independent State of Croatia and South Vietnam. After the Serbs in Croatia started resisting the horrific Vatican-inspired genocide and forced conversions, the government of NDH came up with a similar plan. Although the Uniates had been present in parts of Croatia around Žumberak for some time, this was not enough to pacify the recalcitrant Serbs. A new monstrosity called the Croat Orthodox Church was formed in the hope of attracting those desperate remaining Orthodox believers who could not commit that last spiritual betrayal even when threatened with torture and death.[8] This didn’t have any effect at the time but was taken out of the closet, dusted and employed more recently in Montenegro (the “Montenegrin Orthodox Church”) in a new attempt to destroy this centre of Serb spirituality and deploy it in its never-ending Drang on Russia.[9] Sound familiar? Kiev, the centre of Russian Orthodoxy is now the capital of the bitter enemy of Russia. Creating pseudo-Orthodox Churches while mercilessly suppressing any attempts by the Catholic believers to free themselves from its oppressive clutches, has been the signature tactic of the Holy See for a long time.
2. The rogues’ gallery extraordinaire
For those who think that the above pattern is coincidental, read on! The Jesuits had long been present in the Russian empire in one form or another and it would take too long to chronicle their adventures, victories and defeats. Suffice it to say that as the 19th Century wore on, the Jesuits became the weapon of choice against Russia, especially from the territory of Austria-Hungary but also other countries. After decades of study, most of the important faces and events are engraved in my memory and I shall demonstrate this by focussing on a couple of Jesuits who have contributed substantially to the current tragedy of the Ukraine.
The first delinquent is Andrey Sheptitsky, a Polish nobleman who often travelled to the Russian Empire as a spy for Austria-Hungary at the end of the 19th Century. His obvious ability (and noble birth) earned him the title of the Archbishop of the Jesuit-managed Ukrainian Uniate Church. In his exalted role, Sheptitsky’s church became one of the leading centres of Ukrainian nationalism and anti-Orthodox activity. But why not appoint Sheptitsky to a regular RC sinecure? Because on his father’s side, he was Ruthenian—in other words, a Russian from the Western borderlands of the Empire whose family had been Catholicised and Polonised in the 19th Century.[10] Thus, the reasons why the Vatican bosses sent young Andrei to Galicia were twofold: as half-Russian, he could mimic an Orthodox bishop with ease. The more important reason was that as a recent convert, Sheptitsky was certain to show no empathy when it came to “capturing” the souls of his fellow Russians. His subsequent career is glossed over by most sources but one detail could not be erased from his saintly biography. It was Sheptitsky who gave his official blessing to the notorious 13th Waffen SS division Galizien at its inception ceremony in 1944. Thus, a Catholicised Russian youth was trained as a spy and was rewarded for his services by being appointed Archbishop at a tender age. He ruled his false church for many years only to witness the ultimate defeat of his vision of a Pope-owned Ukraine. The liberation of the republic by the Red Army led to the abolition of the Uniate church and the transfer of all its properties to the Russian Orthodox Church on the orders of Joseph Stalin. The papal shock troops from the days of the Union of Brest who terrorised the people under their yoke for centuries and finally joined Hitler on his (essentially RC) crusade, were wiped out—at least for a while.[11]
The second rogue was mentioned in one of my previous articles. As far as the Vatican was concerned, the first years following the victory of the Bolshevik revolution were for them years of opportunity. Finally rid of their eternal enemy—Russian empire—the prelates in the Vatican assumed that given the repression against the ROC by the red zealots, Orthodoxy would eventually be eclipsed and supplanted by Roman Catholicism as a state religion. However, the situation was chaotic and the notoriously efficient and ubiquitous Vatican intelligence system was largely in the dark when it came to the disposition of the Soviet leaders towards Catholicism. The Holy See needed an agent at the heart of the Soviet state who could report on the changing political situation in a timely manner. For this momentous task, the Vatican selected American Jesuit Edmund Walsh and under the guise of the Papal Famine Relief Mission sent him to Russia in 1922. The zealous and ambitious Walsh did not waste time on giving out packets of food to starving children. Rather, he fulfilled his principal task by transmitting his intelligence reports daily from the German Embassy in Moscow. The future geopolitician of the American Fourth Reich had another task—to convince the Soviets to surrender the body of the Jesuit Bobola so that it could be interred in Rome. While he succeeded in this scheme, his mission was over as soon as the Bolshevik leaders realised that Walsh was hiding his spying behind a “humanitarian” front (USAID anyone?). Although present from the start, Walsh’s “anti-communism” (read Russophobia) exploded after the war when the Soviet Union under Stalin laid to rest any hopes the Vatican and the Jesuits might have had of conquering and converting Russia.[12]
However, Walsh’s success in removing the remnants of Andrzej Bobola did bear bloody fruit in the end. After being canonised by Pius XI in April 1938, Bobola (minus his arm) was taken on a prolonged tour through the Catholic “Slobovias” of Central Europe. The aim was clear—to inflame religious tension and hatred of Russia. This of course would lead, as it did, to the weakening of the opposition to Hitler and in at least one case—a religious holocaust. The Jesuit’s body arrived in Warsaw in June. It has been recorded that in the two months following Bobola’s arrival, several hundred Orthodox churches were burned down in Poland. This was horrible enough but nothing in comparison with what ensued a little later—one of the most horrific genocides in modern history inspired by the blood lust and xenophobia of the Roman Catholic Church and executed by the monstrous Nazi tumour—the so-called “Independent State of Croatia”.
In what I can call peak irony, Walsh was appointed a special consultant to the Chief Counsel at the Nuremberg trials, Robert Jackson. His task was to interrogate the father of modern geopolitics—Karl Haushofer—in order to establish his influence on the Nazi war plans. This was akin to asking Himmler (whose uncle was a Jesuit tried at Nuremberg) to interrogate Pinochet or Banzer. Whatever Haushofer’s geopolitical knowledge and skill, he was a simple amateur in comparison with the might and global reach of the Jesuits (and the Vatican)—especially compared with the “father of the American geopolitics”. Note the mimicry often ascribed to Jews—hiding behind American patriotism, Walsh was free to further the goals of a foreign entity to which he owed his true allegiance.
It was the Superior General of the Jesuits Włodzimierz Ledóchowski who’d worked on establishing close links with the Reich (despite attempts to whitewash his nefarious activities) and it is self-evident that the Jesuits and the Nazis were on the same page when it came to dealing with the Russians “with sword and fire”. One concrete result of this was the inspection visit to the Ukraine by Cardinal Lavitrano and his team. Their aim was to assess the possibilities for a wholesale conversion of the Orthodox under the auspices of the Wehrmacht. Similar schemes were promoted by the RC arch-hater of Russia and England Franz von Papen (who had brought Hitler to power) while serving as German ambassador to Turkey. Fortunately, the epic battle of Stalingrad put paid to these monstrous schemes.
But, back to Walsh. Since the 1920s, his principal task was to infiltrate US military and foreign policy circles and slowly reorient the United States—which at that time was still largely and proudly Protestant—on a path better aligned with the interests of the Holy See. Having acted as Inspector for the US Army Training Corps during WWI, in 1919, Walsh established a school of “foreign service” at the Georgetown University. You might be wondering why a deeply religious man devoted to following the path of Christ would choose to meddle in geopolitics. If you are, you are hopelessly naive. The answer of course is that the Jesuits (I always remember the honourable exceptions) have little to do with religion and all to do with bringing about a global hegemony of the Roman Catholic Church. To people such as Walsh, learning, prayer and contemplation were empty rituals that helped mask a pathological zeal and iron will to pursue a very un-Christian, or rather, satanic ideal. As always, the Jesuits were ahead of the curve.
Walsh’s efforts were not in vain. At the end of the war, the RC cabal around Cardinal Francis Spellman was instrumental in neutralising Henry Wallace (some say that Roosevelt was killed by the RC opponents of his “communist-friendly” policies) and cleansing the American body politic of any residues of the progressive, optimistic, anti-imperialist and peaceful course charted the late and much-lamented American president.[13] The United States of swing, Orson Welles, bravery in the Pacific and social conscience suddenly turned into a grim, paranoid Oceania suffused with fear and ready to engage in an epic religious crusade—despite its absolute victory in WWII.[14] From a relatively isolationist country focussed on its own problems, America became an empire virtually overnight. The loudest voices of the 4th Reich at that time were right-wing Catholics who did all in their power to suppress dissenting voices and bring about a nuclear holocaust of the Soviet Union. I have already given some details of this underhand coup by the fascist elements in the US in one of my previous articles. Here, I only wish to expose the link between this old-school Jesuitical cabal and their descendants proudly advising Obama on “American geopolitics”.
You would not be surprised to learn that while Walsh was busy sicking the dogs of nuclear war on Russia in 1947, a new lecturer in economics was appointed at his School—one Lev Dobriansky. Born of Ukrainian parents in New York City, Dobriansky was one of the leaders of the post-war “anti-communist” (fascist Russophobic) surge. His principal claim to fame was the authorship of one of the most shameful documents in US history—the Captive Nations Week Resolution. Endorsed by President Eisenhower in 1959, the resolution introduced the concept of “captive nations”—these were mainly countries, ethnic groups and national minorities that a newly fascist US could leverage in the fight against the Soviet Union. They were deemed “oppressed” but of course, as noted even by the timid and supine Congress of Russian Americans, the project was purely anti-Russian and involved some of the most despicable Nazi criminals.[15] The concept was not new. Both Imperial and Nazi Germany had supported and funded various ethnic minorities in order to dismember Russia (most of them were given at least one Waffen SS division). Ukrainians (namely their various fascist organisations co-ordinated by the CIA and Gehlen Org) played an important role in this project. As I said, they had been funded since the end of the war by James Forrestal et al. and supported by the RC apparatus as “freedom fighters”.[16] One of Dobriansky’s students eventually became a wife of the failed nationalist president of the Ukraine Yushchenko, whose coloured revolution of 2004 was funded massively by George Soros himself. Why would Soros fund someone who was attempting to revive Ukrainian fascism? Please read my previous articles.
Dobriansky’s daughter Paula has navigated the dark landscape of Russophobic US foreign policy for a number of years. Another Georgetown alumna, she was considered by Trump for the post of the Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs (!). This story can go on forever but it is better if I stop here. I have completed the circle—from Andrew Bobola to his disciples three centuries later who have made his dream come true. What do you see in the picture now?[17]

Thank you this is very well written and informative. A question that comes to mind is what role do Organised crime play in the RC Empire. Since I first saw Pompeo I had to wonder if he was part of the family. This also seems to be a taboo topic. Probably for good reason. The picture you are painting reveals that many power structures are in competition for control, it’s not one organised and co-operative cabal at the top. It is competing and ancient organisations who want the world to remain feudal, duking it out as always before, with callous disregard of the outcomes for all life. I don’t know who all these organisations are, but in the US for example the true left /right divide seems to be between the ruling parties…i’d guess that this is between the RC power that you allude to and the Fundamentalist Christian power which I guess would be termed protestant? As in history they work together only when it suits them and always plotting for absolute power.
The only solution for humans is to wake up and realise that we have a huge majority and we are all in this together. For this to happen education is key especially the kind that illuminates all false dichotomies that keep the slaves obediently stupid and powerless.
Dear Kerry,
Thank you. That is an excellent question. Without going back too far, I am going to list some names that will allow you to find out more about this fascinating topic.
It is well known that various Mafia bosses (e.g. Lucky Luciano and Carlo Gambino) closely collaborated with the Vatican, first on behalf on Mussolini and then by helping Spellman and Pius XII suffocate socialism in Italy after the war.
Apart from those:
Michele Sindona
Roberto Calvi
Licio Gelli
Cardinal Paul Marcinkus
And many more.
Read “In God’s Name” by David Yallop
Thank you
Just a little addendum,
Pope John Paul I (a raving communist!!!) was killed because he became aware of the criminal money-grubbing and laundering machinery that connected the Vatican with the darkest forces of reaction in the West (Gladio, Le Cercle, Bilderberg) via Paul Marcinkus, Sindona and others. Perhaps the only Christian to sit on the throne of St. Peter in a long time, John Paul was replaced by the Russophobic Germanophile and IG Farben salesman Karol Wojtyla who buried all the corpses quickly and went on to lead the crusade against Slav federations (USSR, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia) that were torn apart at the same time that Germany was reunited.
In his crusade against Slav federations, JPII found in Reagan a more than eager co-worker:

“RC power… and the Fundamentalist Christian power … work together”?
Compared to Jesuit power, C. fundamentalist power is no power at al – and not only because protestants are basically disunited. What you term working together would be the Jesuits manipulating the fundamentalists…
Happy man: you have no idea of the nature of the Jesuit Order. So good for you mental health.
I dare you say something similar towards Islam, the same people who invaded Constantinople, turned Hagia Sophia into a mosque, made christian orthodox boys slave-soldiers and girls sex-slaves
As for the Jesuits.
I attended a Catholic boarding school,non Jesuit,in 1965-69
Once,to the best of my recollection were the Jesuits were mentioned in the following context.
The priest who was teaching church history,from Roman times to the present time,mentioned the Jesuits in that they had come up with the concept of “equivocation”
I asked the teacher priest what was meant by this and he replied that it was something akin to telling lies without telling lies.
Bearing in mind that lies were not allowed in the Catholic faith I took this to mean that he was in a way showing the Jesuits to be different and not to be trusted compared to “ ordinary” Catholics because their underhand practices.
Of course no more was ever mentioned on this subject,however, as a teenager with a feel for such subtleties it always stuck out in a religion so obsessed with unity that the subject was mentioned as it was.
Supporting evidence for Ken Leslie,not that he needs more.
Having said that one of the nicest people I have had the pleasure and good fortune to know, a solicitor who has helped my family to remain in our home was educated by the same Jesuits who educated plenty of dodgy politicians and similar prominent businessmen here.
However he himself appears to understand the waters in which he must swim and if I were to repeat here what we have spoken of it would add considerable weight to the notion that the Zionists and Jesuits are parent and child.
Dear TJT,
You are right – every time we generalise, we hurt someone innocent. But don’t you think that picture is amazing?
Yes Ken,indeed it is.
Leo
Of course, the takeover of Constantinople by the Ottomans was a great tragedy and saddens me. But you forgot one big detail, it was possible because of the ransack of the city by the Roman Catholic hordes of invaders who were on their way to Jerusalem for a fourth time. Constantinople never recovered from it and while it begged their fellow Christians in the West to help them push back the Ottomans, the Vatican didn’t lift a finger.
Thank you Toma,
You’ve highlighted one of the “festering wounds” that poison the relationships even today (and is largely forgotten). I am waiting for someone to challenge my facts – in vain.
Dear Ken
I really love your essays and I admittedly have come to anxiously await the next one. So please keep going sir. Just like you I have no problem with fervent Catholics (or any religion for that matter) but after reading the great Avro Manhattan, I was totally awoken to the magnitude of the Catholic Church’s criminal enterprise.
In your next essay, can you please touch on RC clout in Hollywood. Greatest example that comes to my mind is the tandem of Jon Voight/Angelina Jolie. The former was educated at Alojzije Stepinac High School (nuff said about who he was) and the latter has consistently hated and smeared the Serbian people. I think it’s no coincidence.
Thank you
Dear Toma,
Thank you very much. Of course, I respect anybody’s faith as long as it’s not used as a weapon which in the case of RC it certainly has been (the same goes for most of Islam).
Regarding the Catholic nexus in Hollywood–I have studied it starting with 1939. I even drew a graph showing links between different agents.
I’ll try Toma – thank you again!
(mod:had to cut out that opening remark)
Crusaders attacked Constantinopole in 1204.
Ottomans took Constantinopol in 1453.
It is similar to say that somebody lost the war now because somebody else attacked him in 1770
Venetians sent large fleet to help Constantinopol but it was late, it was already over and Constantinopole was doomed.
There was no way to save that city. Turks were everywhere, Constantinopol was surrounded for long time. Even if Venetians fleet arrived in time it would only postponed inevitable … maybe for couple of years
And Byzantines were not happy that Catholics help them. Lucas Notaras, secretary of Constantinopol said – better sultan’s turban than pope’s hat
So be it
LOL!!!!!
Bosnian Croat is missing a few events between 1204 and 1453. Let me fill in some blanks:
1262 the Byzantines finally drive out the Latins.
The Byzantines had to abandon their Eastern front to fight and defend their Western front. This two front war led to a series of defeats to the Ottomans in the East.
1302 Fall of Bythnia
1308 Fall of Ephesus
1331 Fall of Nicea
1380 Fall of Thrace
Eventually the Byzantines lost all their Anatolian territory which made it very easy for the Ottomans to attack Constantinople in 1453.
If is absolutely correct that the Latins weakened the Byzantines by waging war on their Western front while they were facing a rising threat on the East.
Byzantines were not happy because the Catholics were slow in helping them. The outburst of Lucas Notaras was an expression of his frustration at the conditions the West were imposing on Byzantium for their help: imposing the Union of Florence. That he did not prefer the ‘turban’ is shown by his execution along with his entire family (and a great number of former dignitaries) for not accepting the conversion to Islam of his sons to be the playthings of the gay sultan.
And one more thing
Western Catholic Crusaders were robbing also catholic cities and lands on their way to Jerusalem, But it seems that they were really angry with Constantinopole in the year of 1204
And why would be a reason for that
Maybe for this that happened 22 years before in 1182
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_of_the_Latins
This event served as a pretext for the launch of fourth crusade.
From your link, Bosnian Croat:
“The Pisans together with a few Venetians raided the Genoese quarter in Constantinople, causing much damage…”
” In early 1171, however, the Venetians attacked and largely destroyed the Genoese quarter in Constantinople. There were also mass rapes and the burning of houses.”
The fact is, the Latins were extremely disliked in Constantinople for their arrogant and antisocial behaviour.
When a change in the Monarchy led to a moment of anarchy, mob fights broke out and the hated Latins got themselves massacred by the mob.
This event served as a causus belli for a pre-meditated fourth crusade, sacking, pillaging of the city, conversion of Orthodox churches (Hagia Sophia became a Catholic church), murder and rape of the population and 50+ year occupation…The rest is history.
Dear Serbian girl,
Thank you, I can’t cover all the facets of their criminal history fast enough!
Yes they were very disliked
And when you dislike some ethnic or religious community, you wipe them out by mass killing 60 000 of them and selling remaining surviving 4000 as a slaves to Turks.
Very nice.
Dear Leo,
I don’t need to. Read Mark Curtis’s Secret Affairs.
On the other hand, I might just take you up on the challenge.
Here comes:
Some of the greatest genocides in history – to rival those by the Vatican – have been committed by Moslems including tens of millions in India, Africa, Middle East (the entire Christian and pre-Christian culture is gone) and Europe. After the Crusades which impacted the Orthodox as much are Moslems, the latter ALWAYS sided with their Western enemy and against RUM (after Sheikh Imran). If you are interested in their techniques, I recommend head chopping, church desecration and enslavement of non-Muslim populations in Bosnia, Libya and Syria. Yes, yes, not all Muslims are like that.
@KL One has to understand that Christianity, Judahism and Islam are directed by one and the same – the Hierophants of 21 and their Biblical Project – the main vessel to conquer the world. One can get an opening here: http://www.dotu.ru/lang/en/ and http://www.dotu.ru/?s=Last+Gambit
“since 1945 … foreign policy has been governed by Russophobic agendas which have nothing to do with the United States and everything to do with Roman Catholic and Jewish (both ultimately European) hatred of Russia”
A well documented case for the prosecution. Noted but for my part, being a lapsed Greek Orthodox who regards the Catholic Church as the body of Christ (ie, as the total effort of All True Christians working to spread the Good News and do Good Deeds to All Sorts and Conditions of Men) and having Roman Catholics a well as Jewish friends and family, I beg to reserve judgment. Furthermore, I am a great admirer not only of Russian Orthodox writers such as Solzhenitsyn, of Russian Judeo-Christian writers such as Pasternak and Mandelstam, but also of Roman Catholic writers from Dante to GKC to Graham Green; but this article is the first I ever heard of “Roman Catholic and Jewish hatred of Russia” as being essential traits of those two faiths.
And yes, I know about Roman Catholic Teutonic Knights who converted Russian Orthodox at the point of the sword; I know about Roman Catholic Croatians who collaborated with Nazis to genocide Jews and Orthodox Serbs alike; and I have read “Two Hundred Years among Us”. But this is the first propaganda broadside that I have encountered which directs its blast specifically against a Roman Catholic conspiracy in the U$ (and downplays an Anglo Zio Capitalist conspiracy) as being the major driving force behind the Cold War.
It is the same drive to hide the real ‘elephant in the room’, who hides behind the bi-cephalic elephant-assinine mask of Republicrats and Demolicans.
Well, it’s not the only one “propaganda broadside” out there. I’ve referenced above a paper by Charles Wilcox (2018), “Perverting The Promised Land” . The perverting is here also squarely laid at the feet of the S.J.: a Jesuit-led “Roman Catholic conspiracy in the U$”
There is only one ‘conspiracy’ in the US, and it is in plain view, naked as the King of Anderson’s tale, but nobody dares to say that the King is naked!
Excellent article.
I would like to add that one might be nominally Roman Catholic or Muslim or Buddhist or Atheist or Communist but in reality still belong to the exeptional tribe who wrecked Russia and now does the same the US.
From cryptos in the Ottoman empire to Spain to modern India and China and onwards, not to mention western modern aristocracy, one can see a trend of a public face and private loyalty to the exceptional tribe.
Robert Mugabe went to a Jesuit school, and so were a suprising number of revolutionaries. Something about it that creates a good revolutionary or had they not realy broken with Rome?
“The Jews”, all jews, some jews, which jews?
Hi, Johny,
Good point.
So did Fidel Castro and many others. Psychology of conformity and rebellion. Just ask yourself what happened to all the Latin American Jesuits who supported left-wing governments and opposed fascism. Pope Francis knows a thing or two about this.
I did put “some Jews” at the beginning in the hope that this would be taken for granted.
Surely, you can see that I am not targeting them here – there are many others who do.
I don’t discount ‘Jesuitical plots’ and corruption/fanaticism at the top of the Jesuit order. There’s been so much over history about thus.
But I attended a Jesuit school in Australia. It was a good school. The themes that came through were about social justice, reason and open-minded inquiry. The priests were nice enough guys with a passion for knowledge and mostly good teachers. This was from late 1960s to mid 1970s and Vatican II reforms and that faith must align with reason and compassion were a big part of the theology.
An addendum is that I caught up with my Jesuit English teacher in Rome when I was backpacking during university holidays around Europe in 1981. He was there at a Jesuit convention at the Vatican with over 20,000 of the order. Over lunch he did speak of intrigue and politics at the top of the order and how it was not his thing and neither Christ’s in his opinion.
So my point is: good people are in the majority within the Jesuit order, but like any organised religion, political party, bureaucracy or society, the higher up the hierarchy the greater the collection of rogues, narcissists and psychopaths. Much more so for organisations that have been around for centuries and have a degree of secrecy, money and power.
So cannot the same be said for Freemasonry, Judaism, Islam, Protestant churches?
There are the allegations of Satanists at the top of Western elite power structures and Satanism/Black Masses in the Vatican. Former Jesuit and Vatican insider Malachi Martin though a strict traditional theology was his motivation is one source for these allegations and Leo Zagami another.
Then there’s the former Dutch banker, Ronald Bernard whose gripping interview is a must see. That 8,000 to 8,500 or so Satanists pull the strings and child sex trafficking is their thing to maintain control. Quite topical on the day Ghislaine Maxwell has been arrested. And in light of all the exposure of systemic paedophile in the R.C. Church.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yqx5pFYLF2M
Of course he could be just making it up but seems very genuine and emotionally congruent. This article gives a synopsis of Bernard’s interviews if not time to watch it all in context:

Dear Peter,
I agree but you won’t see six Orthodox lay people advising the President on “security” – why is that?
There is a risk of whataboutery here – there is only one side (or a couple of sides) that have wrought havoc on the world. Just acknowledge that these harbingers of evil have been doing their thing for centuries.
There can never be a moral equivalence until this is exposed and renounced.
Thank you
Jesuit schools are excellent schools; they teach their pupils how to think, and the value of hard work.
Most Jesuits are good, sincere religious.
Only a handful are given political tasks, and of these, only a select few are given geopolitical missions, either working directly or through alumni of their colleges and other like-minded recruits.
But that handful of string-pullers is enough to “corner” the political market.
Getting back to the photo of Obama with his advisors [is there a shorter URL?], you could also show a photo of the supreme court justices taken at any time in recent years and find a majority of Catholics. That kind of an unrepresentative majority is not in the national interest.
Hey, Bart,
Indeed! You are doing my job for me. Also the armed forces (Navy etc.). I wasn’t thinking about the URL (was going to publish the photo) but next time I’ll certainly shorten it.
Thank you
Clicking the link in the article leads directly and easily to the photo.
And thanks for a very interesting article, KL. Very informative indeed.
It’d be interesting to touch on the amazing phenomenon of Jesuit Bergoglio and his brother Jesuits’ embrace of “wokeness” – especially visible in the US.
Is it a new way of increasing their control of the Western world, riding on this “woke” wave?
Yes. The power of the Jesuits in US government is discussed in this piece by Charles Wilcox: Perverting The Promised Land (2018) – https://books.google.rw/books?id=k9fVCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA69&lpg=PA69&dq=George+Soros,+Knights+of+Malta&source=bl&ots=d6ARSNqdVI&sig=ACfU3U3Y2VisS-s1QrrMxBO8Ai-wemkTPg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi0zaKiy5bqAhX16eAKHce9DyUQ6AEwEXoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q&f=false
I don’t have enough knowledge on what the RCC did in Ukraine for me to comment on it. Not that I’m saying it’s not true, just that I do not know enough to have a discussion,
But what I do know is that you cannot, yourself, see the woods for the trees.
What do I mean ? Loyola was a Jewish concert to Catholicism and when he created the Jesuits Jewish converts have always played a key role in it. Whether they really converted or not we will never know.
Count Coudenhove-kalergi one time head of the Jesuits said their aim in Europe was quite simple. Through miscegenation with foreigners, primarily blacks they would create a new race of Europeans with negroid features that would be ruled by the Jewish master race.
The current pope, a Jesuit too, has done all he can to encourage the migration of foreigners into Europe. Hmm.., I wonder why ? There was an interesting article I read which explored the prominent role Jewish “converts” have played in the Jesuits over the centuries since its inception. I’just don’t remember where. I’ll see if I can find it.
The Jesuits have always been the RCC’s fifth column.
Why do the Jews hate Russia so much because the Russians defeated the Khazar Empire which was a wholly Jewish empire from which the Ashkenazis’ derive from. It was King Bulan who converted the empire to Judaism if I’m not mistaken.
Dear Down South,
Oh trust me I can see the woods. It is you who is refusing to see the bloody truth and still insist on blaming the Jews for everything. Are you not intrigued by the fact that you know nothing about this perversion of Christianity? Not a single tear for the millions of dead innocents?
I was expecting the false Jesuits = Jews equivalence and am ready – most of the crimes of the Vatican have been committed by other orders (Franciscans, Dominicans and others). The Jesuits are just the “Panzerfaust”. Also, would you not convert if faced with the executioner’s knife or a rack?
As far as your confusion about the intentions of the current pope – in my previous article I outlined the Vatican’s intent to move from the “exhausted” West to new pastures – primarily China, Africa and Latin America (let’s not forget the Ukraine and Russia).
And hey, guess who has been appointed a new Superior General of the Jesuits by the Jesuit Bergoglio: Arturo Sosa the ex-Head of the Jesuits of VENEZUELA. If I were Maduro, I would worry.
And I’ll take Bergoglio over the nasty criminala Pacelli or Wojtyla any day.
And imagine the wonders the mass Latino immigration will do for the RCC!
Like all forced converts to Catholicism and Islam (Russians, Serbs etc.), converted Jews become the greatest enemies of their own people – persecuting their own in order to be accepted by their new coreligionists.
I will end here.
Jews … I do not know how much of anti-Russian sentiment exist among Jews.
But I know that in Catholic world there is not very significant anti-Russian sentiment.
The strongest anti-Russian sentiment exist in Germanic, Anglo-Saxon and Protestant world.
Dear BC,
That might well be the case – I repeat, I am not accusing regular Catholics of anything. I am describing a centuries-old doctrine of the Catholic Church. So, no Polish, Ukrainian and Croat hatred for Russians and Serbs? Was it the the British, the Serbs or the Croats who sent a legion on Stalingrad (led by the Ustasha colonel Marko Mesic)? Was it the British and French (republican since the end of 19th Century) who declared a racial/religious war on Russia and Serbia in 1914 or Austria-Hungary and Germany? Although protestant, Wilhelm was viewed as the “mailed fist of Christianity” by the Pope. I could go on.
Legion to Stalingrad was sent by puppet ustasha regime which was in service of Germans.
You can go on. But anti-Russian sentiment almost does not exist in Latin America in Catholic part of Asia or Africa. Even not in Europe. Romance peoples are not very anti-Russian
I said Germanic, Anglo-Saxon and Protestant. You should read more carefully what is written.
If you deny Catholic Church what you have than. You have Russian church and couple of Ortodhox churches and that it is what remain of Christianity.
Croats hatred toward Serbs
Why only Croats. There is not single ethnic group or nationality in former Yugoslavia that is not in more or less anti-Serbian sentiment. Slovenians, Croats, Bosniaks, Albanians, Macedonians do not like you too much, now even Montenegrians does not want to have too much business with Serbs.
Why is that? You Serbs should answer this question to yourselves.
It is funny and ridiculous how you Serbs think that only Vatican point of existence is to harm Serbs. You always give to yourselves too much significance.
I am not Serb but will not forget the millions killed, converted and expelled by your “faith”.
To show I’m not Serb – I care equally about almost a million Tutsis slaughtered within a month by the “puppet ustashe” and given asylym by the Vatican. That was in 1994.
Another knee-slapper from Bosnian Croat who conflates anti- Orthodox sentiment & anti-Yugoslav sentiment within the the former Yugoslav republics, with hatred of Serbs.
Anti-orthodox sentiment …
I am not religious and I do not like too much any Church influence .
I hope that Putin knows what he is doing
Anti-Yugoslav sentiment…you are on wrong address
Yugoslavia was great country …the best solutiontion for Southern Slavs.
But it was destroyed by nationalism and Serbian nationalism contributed lions share in destruction of Yugoslavia.
You Serbs can sell your fairy tales to people who has no idea about Yugoslavian history…but not to us who knows everything.
I’ve found Polish hatred of Russians to be ingrained and frequently over the top.
One of my neighbours, a Polish woman, asked me to accompany her to the local Polish Embassy for their National Day celebrations, her husband being away.
“So what’s the programme for the day?” I ask.
“Oh, we meet at the Ambassador’s residence, socialise for a while over cocktails, then there are some speeches, and a buffet, and then spend the rest of the evening cursing the Russians?”
“What?”
“Yes, we enjoy bad-mouthing the Russians, and everyone tries to find something bad to say against them.”
Well, that didn’t sound like a pleasant evening, so I excuse myself…
Some time later, I met a young Polish journalist at a conference, and I told him the story, and asked him to explain how that sort of thing makes sense.
“We like hating the Russians. It’s just like a national sport…”
“Is it the case also among young people like you?” (He was 26)
“Well, I’d say the hatred is not so virulent among my friends: it’s just something we like doing…”
Actually, even Pope Francis felt the need to admonish the Poles against their stubborn anti-Russian sentiment – or resentment, enjoining them to “nurture positive memory” instead:
Addressing Polish authorities & diplomatic corps, on during his visit to Poland on 27 July 2016:
“Memory is the hallmark of the Polish people. [However,] there are two kinds of memory: good and bad, positive and negative. [The latter] keeps the mind and heart obsessively fixed on evil, especially the wrongs committed by others. Looking at your recent history, I thank God that you have been able to let good memory have the upper hand, for example, … the Joint Declaration [an appeal for reconciliation] between the Catholic Church in Poland and the Orthodox Church of Moscow: an act that inaugurated a process of rapprochement and fraternity not only between the two Churches, but also between the two peoples. The noble Polish nation has thus shown how one can nurture good memory while leaving the bad behind.”

Ken Leslie’s details of Jesuit, Jesuit-“Jewish” and otherboth left and right wing flanking pincer attacks on Christian Orthodoxy, slavs, the USSR (more fundamentally Russia) are valuable and need to be considered by any person, religious or not…that is of the mind and spirit to hold that Truth exists……..and it is knowable by human beings.
Yet, what is true of Catholic Power is also true of nearly every organized body of human beings identifying with a doctrine of faith they were born into …or adopted…..often out of convenience…sometimes out of coercion…..THEN convenience, as captive slaves of temporal material power.
How is the individual to keep their moral footing in a world characterized by these swift and strong currents that tear like raging rivers through their societies, their experience, the mentality of other human beings they must necessarily relate to and live with…OR resist…as they choose….quite often in less “diverse” history…simply to DROWN…and be killed by such currents….and rather quickly, at that ???
Die…..or “go along to get along”…..when it comes to the prevailing “arbiters of faith”(???) is a simple choice for most people in most places on planet earth…practically ALWAYS…..and the truth lover and seeker is often well advised to keep his or her observations of moral contradictions…………..quietly to his or her self…or loudly join with the greater Power of the Moment…..and become a bigger part of the the problem.
What makes the Roman Catholic Church stand out from other organized religion in this general conundrum of billions of individuals attempting to maintain their footing and live their lives…..is the centralization of power reflected in ONE SINGLE SYLLABLE ………..capturing the consciousness …..weighted in fear as much as in ambition to “join the winner” and imagination and awe of nearly everyone in “The West” for more than two thousand years: ROME
The Center of the Empire….”All Roads Lead to Rome”…..etc, etc
From Charlemagne to Napoleon Bonaparte…..to Adolf Hitler…it has been as natural for aspirers to powers to look to THE primary image of Power in the Material World they live in first…..and piety and truth…a very far distant second.
No surprise there….AT ALL!!!!
Just as it is no surprise to see the elements of ancient Astro Theology in every religion…..and be more concerned with our sun and our moon…and the earth we live on….than the entire Universe.
And as we have developed as a species our material spacial limitations…and our egos place these restrictions on our capacities to gravitate out of material constraints of societies we are born into and our own egos we are given…as a necessary tool…of material…if not spiritual survival.
And THERE is where I share some of the reservations a few others (such as Down South) have expressed about this author.
I don’t have the time to go back and quote the phrase ( to do with something like “NO OTHER bloggers, …..anywhere have identified this issue to the depth that I, Ken Leslie am doing…..”) ….I am sure I read something from this author…and I spent a good 10 minutes searching…but couldn’t find it again…and ran out of time this morning…but that phrase was quite telling in regard to the sharp exterior vision of this author when it comes to HIS positioning in this struggle to discern truth…..on his targets….which are my targets as well…..but his egoicly blurred vision in terms of disregard of MANY, many others….(hardly NO ONE else!!!) ….in the same fight….potential allies of inestimable value…………including more than a handful of Catholics….and Jews!!…..he dismisses or simply doesn’t want to know about...in pursuit of his own positioning in this complex world.
A good start would be him taking on Cardinal Vigano’s anti-Francis anti-Jesuit “Children of Light vs Children of Darkness” letter to the US President…..and the Pedophilia and Satanism…and …..not just in the Catholic World.
Especially in view of yesterday’s arrest.
Dear Bro 93,
Thank you and I assure I (like president Putin) am grateful to any decent human being (irrespective of their religion etc.) as long as they don’t aim to attack, destroy, convert or expel the Orthodox Slavs or ANYBODY ELSE. So many brave Roman Catholics (and Jews) – but what is the point if we don’t know about the dark side?
As regards Cardinal Vigano, I’ll wait to hear his thoughts on the official policy of the conversion of Russia as a gift to Mary and similar friendly signals (as issued at Fatima, Medjugorje or Czestochova etc.).
A very good read, thank you. This article and its content reminded me of the “One Evil” site maintained by an ex (is there such a thing?) Jesuit. Access to that site is no longer open to the public in general; but friends and I used it for many years. A. Hitler was indeed surrounded by SJ’s.
That site gives the history of Odessa and the fate of the Samarians whose practices brought the wrath of righteous men along with their diaspora. Perhaps we may deduce this vendetta against Russia as ancient and revenge along with Obamas’ operation to begin the process to restore their old homeland.
The most upright defender of Russia, The Soviet Union and the Eastern faith is — to my great surprise — the military leader of Finland during the two wars with the Soviet Union, the Finnish Marshal MANNERHEIM. A Swedish speaker of Baltic descent, he had been a Russian General before Finland’s independence in 1919:
He allowed the Russians/Soviets to send at least several convoys of Food and Weapons Supplies to Leningrad (Now St. Petersburg) during Winter over the frozen Ladoga lake against German wishes.
He saw to it that not only Lutheranism, but also Orthodox Eastern Chreistianity and Islam became recognized faiths in Finland.
What an upright soul!
I’d like to thank you for your comments. I am just slightly surprised. Not a single comment (with one or two exceptions) condemns this monstrous evil and tries to:
– Deny and deflect
– Blame the Jews
– Plead ignorance
– Attack the writer
Not an iota of sympathy for the victims or curiosity about the roots of this ancient hatred.
This worries me but also tells me that I’ve stumbled onto something important.
KL,
Yes sir, you have stumbled upon something incredibly important ….And you’ve done a masterful job of exposing the current machinations of the RCC and how the latest incarnation of the benevolent followers of Vatican supremacy, still maintain their influence and power over western nations.
Regarding the hatred, deflection, ignorance and ambivalence exhibited in the comments, I can only agree and commiserate sir. I truly thank you for your exhaustive research and for your courage to discuss the central player in the creation of the western ethos of supremacy.
Sadly, even at the vineyard; where our host has bravely written about this historical evil and supported others in the dissemination of these unassailable truths, you’ll not only find the usual lies from the descendants of the perpetrators of these horrific atrocities, but other “good” Christians (the kind that pontificate about equal rights, and justice for all), supporting these descendants in whitewashing
and outright denying these sadistic crimes. The hypocrisy is unrelenting and down right sickening.
Here at the vineyard, I used to comment on many threads and topics, but it’s precisely because of how little its discussed, that I’ve spent the last few years focusing on the historical crimes of the RCC and calling out the continual lies of their disciples.Sadly, these lies have somehow gained more prominence lately, here in the comment section.
I’m delighted to read you are now even more determined to expose this unrelenting campaign of genocide and conquest. Which roots certainly predate the birth of our Lord and more than a millennia before the founding of the Roman Catholic Church. For the RCC were just torch bearers for the Roman Empire.
I eagerly await the coming installments. As I’ve mentioned frequently, this is the Alpha and Omega in understanding the evil which dominates our world today. I would just like to add that these “modern” attempts to conquer Russia and Serbia are merely the latest machinations, by the torchbearers, to eradicate Rome’s greatest enemy, that has been suffering but resisting bravely in the belly of the beast, for millennia. Imagine how the great empire and the papal jesters that followed, must have been seething at the fact that these Orthodox Slavs, from just across the Adriatic, regained their independence from Rome and for centuries prevented Rome’s dominion over the world.
The ancient desire to own the territories of the Orthodox Slavs, whose lands they now mostly control, after centuries of extermination and forced conversion, is the central reason behind the hatred of the brave Russians and their older brethren, the Serbs.
Dear Epithet,
Thank you from the heart. We are fighting (however weakly) for the survival of a large portion of the world. This is not just about Russia – remember the horrific genocide of the Tutsis in 1994–at the time when the Croats were preparing to expel 300000 Serbs, guided by the CIA and that RC scumbag and Georgetown alumnus Peter Galbraith?
Almost a million Tutsis were slaughtered within a month by the rabid hordes of Hutus prodded by their bishops, priests and nuns. A large number of those butchers never faced justice and were protected by the Vatican much like their Croat predecessors. The Vatican succeeded in flipping this over (black is white) so that a number of books and movies appeared about heroic Catholic priests saving the Tutsis. So, it is not just about Russia. All of these innocent lives are equally valuable. It is just that in the coming war, Russia must be strong and must understand the enemy.
Thank you again
Ken,
Thank you for mentioning the genocide of the Tutsis and the role that the benevolent church played in their deaths. Shamefully, I must admit that I knew little of the truth behind the slaughter, before I met an amazing woman, from Rwanda, a few years back. I’m honored to call her a dear friend. Raised an ardent Catholic, she bravely and without mincing words, alerted me to the Vatican’s culpability.
We’ve already discussed your previous submissions. I’m sure She’s looking forward to the articles to come.
Thank you and kindest regards!
Thank you and my regards to the brave and honourable lady. It would be nice to hear her version of the events. It might be educational for some people commenting here.
What an interesting read thank you!!.
That the good book mentions the city with seven hills Rev. 17:9…
“This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits.
and then goes on to describe her in different ways and her coming total annihilation by God Himself
Rev. 16:17-21} {Rev. 18:21-23}
and one would of course immediately zero in on the City of Rome. Certainly that would be the historical geographical perspective and given her history isn’t there a good case to made that Rome is indeed it?
However, Washington, DC was built on seven hills as well!!! Isn’t that interesting and Washington unlike Rome wields the power over the entire world. Raises many interesting questions and though the scriptures are cryptic telling us of the mystery called Babylon I think as more and more details come forward [be looking for more from you Ken Leslie] we will learn the truth. It in fact has to happen because look who is God speaking to ultimately when He says:
Rev. 18:4:
“To come out of her my people, so that you will not share
in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her
plagues.”
How is one to escape if one doesn’t know or maybe this is speaking of the culling of the earth that is supposed to take place?
https://twitter.com/GerryFo62113279
There will be a day of reckoning and look how pattern like are the storms hail, rain and such pounding
the city of Rome and indeed all of Italy? Keep a weather diary and start asking yourselves different questions and while your at it get my book Climate Change the Work of God. You will soon see and learn that climate change is not the result of industrial pollution but rather the pollution of sin!
Thank you, Gerry. Being an ignoramus when it comes to Biblical symbols and metaphors, I’ll leave this kind of high-level analogy to you. I do know (at least it was true a few decades ago) that the Vatican was the largest land and property owner in Washington. Even if just fairly close to the truth, it tells me all I need to know.
Naturally, that the Vatican be so penetrated by the imperial forces of our time and in history doesn’t surprise me. The closer you are to God the more will Satan’s intervention be intense, Just think of Satan tempting Jesus. It’s only when Jesus said ” away from me Satan” that he abandonned. The RC Church being what it is ( over 1.2 billion followers.worldwide) and the power and influence it can exerce , it is no wonder that the highest levels of attempt at corrupting here are in place and have been in.history.
That the RC Church wants to cover the world, it’s part of here mission, if fact, it’s the sole reason of her mission, following Jesus’s steps, to.bring God’s kingdom in our world – Justice, Peace and Love-. You have to admit that it is far from reaching that goal .
The RC Church is for the good in humanity, , in complete contradiction to what you are writing, That it was manipulated ,bat the highest level, even in history, is very real but that light has to appear in your analysis.
Dear Jean-Marie,
It is quite painful to read the words of an honest believer who feels that I am undermining the foundation of their faith. I am really sorry – I don’t mean to hurt anybody (except the criminals hiding behind Christ).
In a deeper sense, you are absolutely right – all religions are prone to entropy-gradual dissipation of their original mission. But a) The Vatican is more culpable than most and b) it did separate itself from genuine Christianity in search of worldly power. I can’t keep shtum – Deus vult.
Thanks Ken Leslie for your input.
I find it extremely good that you mentioned the Catholic Church.
I don’t know why up til now far too many countries follow some given rules outlined by this church.
First of all it should always taken into consideration that the Roman Catholic Church is founded as pure Roman in historic relation and some belief.
It started as a state religion and has been handled by far too many countries as such.
The real Christians were much different. The Christianity “played out” by the Roman Catholic Church had the pure Roman doctrine in it: Romans regarded themselves
superior to other countries and ethnics (even Greeks hadn’t been spared and being enslaved despite Romans knew they were well educated and both admired and envied them for their education skills and philosophy). Foreigners were regarded as “primitive” and this belief goes through the whole history of the Roman Catholic Church (how many millions have been murdered and robbed??). Hand in hand with this goes the suppression and exploitation. The Roman Catholic Church has two main objectives: power and money – followed it for more than onethousend five hundred years.
This church accumulated so much money over times and doesn’t spend a Lira for poor people.
I am a born Roman Catholic living in a pure Roman Catholic state.
I am still wondering – even in my old age – that no one from Europe dared to make any research how many people had been murdered during the first five-sixhundred or so years when this church spread over Europe. Its an extremely sad thing.
In other countries it had been implemented by force as is better known.
It is a Church which – at least in Austria and partly in Germany – pays its Bishops and Arch Bishops and sometimes even Priests by the community (tax payers). Most of tax payers in those countries don’t even know that they pay Roman Catholic clergies. This included even other religious believing people (i.e. Moslems, Hindu etc.) most of them don’t know this fact. I don’t know how it is handled in other European countries and maybe it could be the same. Quite contrary to Moslems: in most Islamic countries they don’t have to pay any “membership dues” for their belief. What is paid is for some services for example reading the Quran or marriage consent etc. But for these it is understandable. Or to give some amounts for poor people or renovation. In some European states even the “membership dues” being/belonging a Roman Catholic Christian are done by the state together with the usually and normal taxes. If registered as a Roman Catholic Christian and not having paid the “membership dues” yearly for the Roman Catholic Church you could get some real troubles and the state will withhold this amount when possible. This yearly “membership dues” are not the same as freely given money after for example a Sunday mass. For Christening (Baptism) or other services by a priest some money is to pay which can be accepted I think.
In Austria the Roman Catholic Church is the greatest landowner and hasn’t to pay taxes.
Above mentioned examples are only some I know. Maybe there are in other countries different ones or even in Germany and Austria more.
Dear monnalisa,
Thank you very much for your contribution. We can’t choose where we are born so your clearsightedness is even more laudable. You are also right to draw parallels between Rome and… Rome! Christianity never fully eradicated pre-Christian religions and beliefs. Whether it has to do with Rome or with the takeover by the Germanic tribes… you are correct. Something went badly wrong. The Kirchensteuer is an interesting phenomenon but I’m not an expert. Again what I do know is that Franz von Papen and Cardinal Pacelli signed in 1934 what the Vatican still considers to be its most successful Concordat.
Thank you
Finally, others are pointing to the Jesuits.
Here in Australia literally every politician of power has been Jesuit trained for decades.
Who founded the legal systems we live under?
Who controls the BAR association?
Who founded the banking system?
Who removed usury as a sin and crime against society?
If anyone doubts we are still living under the Roman Empire, just take a look at the UN logo.
What ‘authority’ does the Laurel Wreath represent?
Historically, who wore the laurel?
Dear Struth,
Thank you for this. Now, Australia is a very interesting case – supposedly Anglo, it has always been a stronghold of Roman Catholicism and was a very important ratline for the Vatican after WWII. Just by chance, I looked at Australian PMs and something like four in a row were RC (around WWII time).
The Opus Dei zealot and incompetent thug Tony Abbott who threatened to “shirtfront (?)” president Putin? He also sent greetings to the Croatian embassy on 10. April (foundation of the Independent State of Croatia).
We know who they are :-)
It is not a case of either the Jews or the Jesuits. They are two faces of the same coin.
Who do you think invented the “Judeo-Christian” meme? That alone would have shocked any intelligent person a few generations ago. There is absolutely nothing in common between the teachings of Jesus and the Talmud. Islam is a direct derivative of Judaism – but Christianity is not.
Additionally concerning the Roman Catholic Church:
Each priest who collects freely given money (people believe usually it is for poor people, how wrong they are !!) after Sunday mass for example, has to give to the Vatican for the pope (I think together with the annual “Kirchensteuer” = “membership dues”) approx. 20 to 25 %. The Vatican as such collects yearly a big sum therefore !!
If a priest helps poor people (from time to time such wonderful men exist) it is very good and wonderful (however, in other ethnic groups/countries wonderful people exist too).
Many Roman Catholic priests (and even the Vatican itself!!) helped even Nazis in Germany and Fascists in Italy, Spain and South America. The actual residing Pope had been booed during his last visit in countries in South America.
Hi Mr. Ken Leslie,
Thank you once again for an excellently written piece. I want to point out one thing:
“nowhere on the blogosphere—but absolutely nowhere—could one read about the very salient and unchallenged-by-history pattern of imperial and genocidal conquest by the Roman Catholic Church.”
Years ago, I read about the egregiously abominable crimes of the Roman Catholic Church, Jesuits included, in various articles printed in the web site Reformation.org. And recently, I have also read about those crimes in VeteransToday.com. It is very sad that many roman catholics cannot, or do not, see beyond the dogma that were fed to them. I consider it as intellectual cowardice; they refuse to see the truth because they are safely ensconced in their status quo.
Mr. Leslie, please keep on writing. Thanks.
Dear readers,
Thank you again for your comments. But would anybody please like to discuss the article – the putsch in the Ukraine and its organisers? I’m sure there are informed people who could add to our knowledge.

I wrote a response yesterday that I’m not seeing here now, and I’m wondering why it’s not showing up.
I didn’t save it, so I can’t be sure of it’s contents specifically, but I do remember that it was not particularly ‘positive’ in tone or especially ‘inspirational’ in the sense that I often see promoted/deployed in this forum; for whatever reason, I don’t employ that particular style of parlance, for better or worse.
Neither do I recall any gratuitous use of profanity, provocation or incitement, and I certainly didn’t attack anyone (not at all my style) directly or by way of insinuation.
It may well be that my general tone wasn’t appreciated or viewed as especially productive, which is often enough the case with my observations, generally, regardless of the forum I happen to be writing on, though I have to say that this is the 1st time, quite surprisingly, that my comments haven’t ‘made the cut’, so to speak, here or anywhere else, for that matter, and it’s no exaggeration to say that I’ve written FAR harsher, extremely brutal and/or obscenity-ridden posts over the years.
The worst I could be accused of is talking to myself (fair enough) or maybe pessimism or cynicism (again, fair enough).
I’m going to just go ahead and guess that it was the general tone that’s resulted in having my comments viewed as not being well suited to either the topic at hand or the broad guidelines of this forum.
If at all possible, I would greatly appreciate it if the moderating person or staff who decide what’s acceptable (or not) would get back to me on this as I certainly have no desire to offend, provoke or attack anyone; so far, I’ve been extremely careful to avoid these etiquette-related writing pitfalls, especially here, and find myself at a loss to understand why yesterday’s commentary was deemed unworthy of posting.
You have my full name and e-mail address.
No hard feelings either way, but some explanation, however brief, would be helpful in the event that I might want to post here again in the future as the subject matter on this forum is often interesting and informative.
Thank you.
Although unfamiliar with the comment you refer to, please see the Moderation Policy posted on the Saker site for information regarding content, mod.
Please to disregard my last message; turns out that I’m an idiot in that the post I wrote yesterday wasn’t even on this article, but the one by Paul Craig Roberts, which did, in fact show up.
My most embarrassed apologies!
It took me some time to post on this incisive and important article, I want first of all to thank the writer, writing this took some intellectual and spiritual courage to ”buck the trend” of some writers out there who obfuscate the nature of the Western Elites somewhat with a misleading and incomplete picture.
I am a person who was born Roman Catholic, was a traditional Roman Catholic, but converted to Orthodox Christianity. I have a Slavic background. My spiritual journey can ”confirm” much of what you have written, at least for myself personally.
The truth of the matter in my opinion is that many people are being fooled by a temporary ”long-con” on the part of the Vatican, in order that the Vatican will be well placed to take advantage of the inevitable Western reaction to the faux revolutions in the streets and fear of Islamic terror, etc… Because the goal is the return to exoteric, open rule by the Vatican over the Western world, in place of It’s more shadowy and uncertain esoteric rule over the Western world that it presently exercises. Obviously, Russia, Serbia, and a few other places and peoples worldwide stand in the way of that happening.
I could be wrong, but that’s pretty much the way i’m seeing it.
