Tears flooding from his eyes, he said, “The Church has lost the right man for the right moment. We are very distressed. We are left frightened.” When Pope Paul VI died, little emotion had been expressed. But when John Paul I died, the entire city was up in arms. Men and women wept openly everywhere. When his body was shown, people passing it were heard to shout, “Who has done this to you? Who has murdered you?” Within two days, the public and the press were loudly demanding an autopsy. But the Vatican was determined that no autopsy be performed, for that might have revealed some- thing new about the cause of death.

Impreso en Colombia Printed in Colombia Sobre el autor El primer libro de David Yallop, titulado Para alentar a los otros, obligo al Gobierno británico a reabrir el caso de asesinato Craig/Bent-ley, que se había considerado resuelto y cerrado veinte años antes. El libro provocó un tumultuoso debate en la Cámara de los Lores, durante el cual lord Arran manifestó: Una de dos: o David Yallop es e! peor bribón que se ha escapado de la horca en toda la historia británica o en relación con este caso de asesinato sólo ha dicho la verdad, toda la verdad y nada más que la verdad. El libro, sumado a un documental escenificado para televisión con libreto del autor, terminó por convencer a mucha gente, desde el anterior lord canciller de Gran Bretaña, lord Gardiner, pasando por lord Arran y lord Goodman, hasta escritores como Arthur Koestler. Todos coincidieron en opinar que había ocurrido una gravísima injusticia. El segundo libro de Yallop, El día en que cesaron las risas, fue ampliamente aclamado a ambos lados del Atlántico y está considerado como la biografía definitiva y la rehabilitación póstuma del famoso actor de cine mudo Roscoe (Fatty) Arbuckle.

  • The Broken Cross: the Hidden Hand in the Vatican Piers Compton
    The Broken Cross: The Hidden Hand in the Vatican Piers Compton Part One What remains when Rome perishes? When Rome falls – the world. Virgil Byron. Its claims were monstrous. They passed beyond human reckoning. For it claimed to be the one divine and authoritative voice on earth; and it taught, gave judgment, and asserted, always in the same valid tone, confident that its message would outlive the transitory phenomena of doubt, change, and contradiction. It stood secure, an edifice of truth behind the ramparts of truth which defied the many and various attacks launched by its enemies. For it claimed a strength that was not of itself, a life-force and vigour imparted by a power that could not be found elsewhere; and because it could not be likened to any earthly thing it provoked fear, bewilderment, mockery, even hate. But through the centuries it never wavered; never abandoned one item of its stupendous inheritance; never allowed the smallest rent to appear in its much derided mantle of intolerance. It inspired devotion and admiration even in those who scorned its mental discipline. It rose above conjecture, likelihood, probability; for the Word by which it had been founded was also its guarantee of permanence. It provided the one answer to the immemorial question – what is truth? One of our essayists told1, as many of our schoolboys used to know, of its place in history; how it saw the beginning, as it was likely to see the end, of our worldly systems; and how, in time to come, a broken arch of London Bridge might furnish a foothold from which a traveller ‘could sketch the ruins of St.

  • Searching for the Illuminati Deep Within the Bowels Of
    Searching For the Illuminati Deep Within the Bowels of the Vatican All roads lead to Piazza San Pietro when it comes to power, leadership and initiation into the devious and diabolical Illuminati. In the 1980's, the Vatican Bank Scandal brought to light the connections between the Freemasons/Illuminati, the Vatican and the mafia. Secret initiations are said to take place in the catacombs of the Vatican and was Pope John Paul I killed after 39 days in office for wanting to expose the truth about Vatican finances and the Illuminati? 16 Jan 2006 By Greg Szymanski Part I While Mass is being said in the Sistine Chapel and tourists are being shown the works of Michelangelo, deep within the bowels of the Vatican sits a large, circular room with 13 separate chambers, each leading to a distinct catacomb. When a mummified body is placed in front of each doorway, a young child is then brutally sacrificed with a long, golden knife during what is said to be a secret induction ceremony for new members of the Illuminati, better known as the New World Order. As a young freelance reporter in Rome during the early 1980s, I heard many rumors of these secret ceremonies from local shop owners, several drunken priests and a couple of local clairvoyants or fortune-telling card readers, one who apparently advised and guided the film career of the famous Italian film director, Federico Fellini. Although a product of a Catholic education and graduate of Notre Dame High School before going on to college, I still couldn't help but wonder if the stories about the brutal child sacrifices were actually true.
