- The Catholic Church, the biggest apostolic church in
the US, is under heavy attack. The plotters had united media effort and
legal machinery, utilized American obsession with money, and given the
Church the treatment they gave tobacco industry, that is, suing it to oblivion.
For their chance to get thirty pieces of silver (over a million dollars,
in present prices), hundreds of American Catholics denounced their church.
-
- This attack, followed by the ill-considered surrender
of Los Angeles Catholic bishops in the 'abusing priests' campaign, is a
clear sign of forthcoming war. This soap opera had a good run in the US
media before the Iraq invasion. It actually started while Sharon was besieging
Bethlehem and destroying Palestine in 2002. Then, all of a sudden, hundreds
of men and women in their forties had remembered that they were abused
some twenty years ago. It rose to a hysterical shriek in advance of the
Iraq invasion in 2003, and now it is playing again as a harbinger of new
hostilities. Whenever the forces of darkness prepare a new attack on mankind,
they use their considerable artillery to shut up the potential resistance
forces, starting with their avowed enemy, the Church. This was the practice
of the Third Reich as well: before starting the war, they began their campaign
of 'priests as sex fiends', to force the church's silence. Now this is
the turn of the Fourth Reich: the Church was against the war in Iraq; the
Church was steadfast in her defence of Palestine; the Church is certainly
against the impending attack on Iran; so she has to be put on defence.
The same people who control the US media call for war with Iran, and they
are behind this campaign against the Church.
-
- Our enemies and the enemies of the Church concocted,
through their control of the media, a phantom of "abusive priests"
and succeeded in convincing the LA Bishops to take the bait of "final
settlement". Very soon the bishops will discover that nothing is final
when you submit to their wishes. Surrender gets you nowhere. They could
learn from the Germans, who agreed to settle all Jewish claims for $1 billion
(as described by the chief Jewish negotiator Nahum Goldmann in his book
The Jewish Paradox, New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1978), eventually paid
$60 billion to find out that they still own $180 billion, and now there
is a new
suit to provide the children of the wartime sufferers with full coverage
of their shrink sessions. If there is a sucker who agrees to pay, he won't
get a break from these fellows.
-
- The very construction of the claim is faulty, to say
the least. If a man abused a boy, while being a priest, this is still his
crime, and he should bear responsibility if and when the crime is
proven by criminal court beyond any reasonable doubt. Likewise, if a man
abused a boy while serving in the army, or working in the fire brigade,
the responsibility is his, not of the army, nor of the fire prevention
services. The bishops had no right to agree to such a suit; if an anti-Christian
judge accepted such a suit, the church should rather disband than agree.
The bishops are not the church, nor are the clergy: the Church is the mystic
body of all worshippers, the Bride of Christ, and she is not a subject
to any suit for misdeeds of individual believers. The Church is always
right, though her bishops, priests or laymen may be wrong individually.
-
- On the second thought, this model can be useful. If one
can sue the Catholic Church, certainly one should be able to sue her traditional
competitor, the Jews. If the Church pays for "abusing priests",
maybe Jewry should pay for "cheating Jews"? A full list of claims
by people cheated by Jewish financiers, real estate developers, bankers,
insurance agents would run to trillions. One Enron case (a clear-cut case
of Jewish cheating) would be enough to offset the "abusive priests"
bounty. Let them sue Jewry in the same court where the Church is sued;
there are enough assets to seize from the Jewish organizations. Maybe that
will leave them with less money to pour into bribing politicians and killing
Palestinians.
-
- A little bird told me that the Jews would never agree
to accept collective responsibility. They are ready to act as a collective
in order to collect, but not to pay. And until they agree to accept collective
responsibility, the Church should not either. If the Pope in Rome still
holds some sway over his LA bishops, he should retire them, void the settlement,
proclaim that the church will never agree to be hold responsible for any
individual's misdeed and excommunicate and anathemise everyone who participated
in this circus. Greed should not be encouraged: however right or wrong
originally, by trying to destroy the church for their pecuniary gain, the
claimants are totally in the wrong.
-
- The odd custom of the late Pope John Paul II - asking
forgiveness for historical sins - was liable to cause this sort of event:
he was not entitled to ask such forgiveness for this would imply that every
Catholic, even a five year old Brazilian girl, was guilty of mistreating
the church's enemies of some 500 years ago. The church should be mightily
happy if she is not sued for the damages incurred in all the cases where
her titular head has asked for forgiveness, including the Crusades, the
Sack of Constantinople and the blood libel cases.
-
- New claims will surely pour in. This is human nature:
show one man of a way to get a million by saying he was fondled by a priest,
and hordes will queue up with their claims. Some will be outright liars
and cheats. The name of Lori
Haigh comes to mind. This lady collected a $1.2 million abuse payment
from the Los Angeles and Orange County Catholic archdioceses in 2002, alleging
that she was abused by a clergyman while being driven to and from music
practices more than 20 years earlier. Afterwards, she tried to play an
abuse victim on several other occasions, until she was stopped by police
as a liar and impostor.
-
- Others will use their false memory to make it up. False
memory is a very real thing: I have noticed that I 'remember' events I
never witnessed because I was told of them so many times. It calls for
quite an effort to regain one's true memory and to dismiss the false one.
Every Jerusalemite will tell you of horrors of 1948 siege of the city,
but the newspapers of the time witness that there was no siege at all,
as an Israeli historian Dr Uri Milstein recently proved.
-
- Sex cases generate a lot of claimants. A few years ago,
a Sephardic Jew, General Itzik Mordechai got close to receiving the crown
of Israel's Prime Ministership. The ruling Ashkenazi elite did not cherish
the idea. They found a girl who claimed that she was raped by the lusty
General. After the claim was publicized, dozens of women came up with similar
claims. The claims came to naught, but there was enough dirt to bury Mordechai's
chances to govern. The trick was repeated against the Sephardi President
Moshe Katzav and worked: the first claimant failed, but the police could
find some positive evidence out of the dozens who came to claim. In the
US, the waves of would-be claimants rise to tsunami heights, with hundreds
and thousands coming to claim they were abused in average, 20 years
ago, in some cases 40 years ago.
-
- I do not feel sorry for these late claimants. Why did
they wait for 20 years? If a boy or a girl is being attacked, he or she
may scream and run to parents or to police. If they did not do it, just
forget it. Consider it a clumsy pass, an unpleasant experience, a result
of misunderstanding. Blame yourself for indecisiveness. Proceed with your
life. Join mankind: every one of us, even your mommy and daddy, suffered
an unwanted kiss or an undesired embrace. The laws should be reasonable,
- allowing 20-year old claims for such events is not reasonable. Only an
immediate complaint should be considered valid, and 24 hours is as long
as should be allowed, in some extreme cases.
-
- If a crime occurred, the criminal should be punished,
but the denouncer may not profit by his report of the crime. This is the
necessary rule of justice. Otherwise we are back at the time when a denouncer
could claim a third of denounced man's property. An honest abuse victim
should kick the temptation offered by the US legal system which encourages
suing for huge sums of money, and return his winnings to the church. Anyway
only the lawyers, the Dershowitzes, win. Out of billions collected by the
Jewish lawyers on behalf of the holocaust survivors, hardly a drop reached
actual ex-prisoners, while the rest remained in the lawyers' coffers.
-
- Expensive damage suits are immoral and counterproductive.
A woman collecting a million for being burned by hot coffee in McDonalds,
a man collecting a million for smoking too much, - this is just an incitement
to litigate. Lawyers' fees should be capped to the extent of a working
man's salary, so they could not turn justice into roulette. The Americans
may consider revamping their legal system for it is a travesty of justice:
the US judges have refused every claim by tortured Palestinians, but have
awarded Israel and American Jews with billions of Palestinian or Iranian
moneys.
-
- The rest of the world lives well without these enormous
damage suits. Money is only money, and this pursuit of dollars is extremely
unattractive. Freud considered money to be the psychological equivalent
of shit. Babies do show their feces with the same pride grown-ups flash
their gold ringlets. An Arab book of seventh century tells of shit competition
between two tribes, where the winner is one who produces the biggest pile.
This is probably a better and a saner way of competing than the one offered
by the Forbes.
-
- II
-
- The Americans over-simplify the question of sex with
minors, when they present it as something monstrous. This is not so. Are
you revolted by Romeo and Juliet? As a good American citizen, you should
be; Juliet was 14, and thus Romeo today would be tried and locked up as
a "paedophile", together with his accomplice the good Friar Laurence,
in the United States. Friar Laurence would surely be considered as an "abusing
priest", and a Dershowitz would collect a million from the Verona
diocese for his sin of arranging the lovers' tryst. Not only the lovers
from Verona: Edgar Allan Poe married a 14-year old; and if the present
laws were in force, the American poet would hearken to his Raven's "nevermore"
in jail. Prophet Muhammad married a nine year old Aisha, but Jacob, a Biblical
patriarch, bettered him and married Rachel who was 7. In modern world,
Jacob and Muhammad would be hunted down, extradited and jailed. It is possible
that even better placed persons would not fare well facing our most enlightened
justice: the Mother of our Saviour was just 14 at Annunciation
-
- Mature women ready to share their experience with young
boys were always approved. In the Greek classic book Daphnis
and Chloe, two young shepherds find love (they would be imprisoned
in the US), but before that, an experienced and mature lady Lycaenion taught
young Daphnis how to attend to his girlfriend to their mutual satisfaction.
Nowadays, in England, a 26-year old woman teacher was persecuted
for having sex with her 15-year old pupil. Even the prosecutor admitted
that it's "every schoolboy's fantasy to have that kind of attention
from a young, attractive member of staff", but pushed for conviction
all the same. In the US, Pamela
Rogers was sentenced to many years of jail for having sex with a young
boy as tall as you and me, who was full 13 at the act the age my
great-grandfather was successfully married. If Mrs Rogers would rather
abuse and humiliate the boy, she could have a successful career in the
school. Who knows, she could become even a State Secretary
-
- A man who maims or kills a child will go to jail, serve
his time and go out a free man. A man who had sex with a 14-year-old girl
will serve his time and will be placed on a roll of sex offenders; his
name and address are made available to every Internet user. In the UK and
the US, these neo-liberal transatlantic twins, a special service allows
you to locate every sex offender in your vicinity. The state in these super-liberal
countries is a Peeping Tom who allows the pursuit of happiness in the stock
market only.
-
- The Americans and the Brits invented a silly concept
of "statutory rape" as if a state prosecutor knows better than
boys and girls what they want. The great French thinkers Sartre and Derrida,
Foucault and de Beauvoir, called in 1977 for skipping this legal invention
altogether. Wise Spaniards established the age of consent at 13, while
the even wiser Muslims have no such age limit for marriage at all, while
disapproving of extramarital relations. Equally wise Jews were guided by
the Talmud which stipulates the permitted age of marriage for girls at
'three years and one day' (though the safer age of nine was preferred),
while strictly forbidding sodomy.
-
- Indeed, almost all cases of alleged abuse are homosexual;
the alleged victims should sue the gay rights organizations rather than
the Church. But the Church is not allowed even to utter these words. They
can't say "pederasty", they should pretend this is "paedophilia".
They may not defrock a homosexual priest, for they would be attacked for
their "homophobia". In the US, the strong defence of homosexuality
is inbuilt into their official dogma. The taboo on "being less than
fond of homosexuals" (homophobia) may stand next to the taboo on "being
less than fond of Jews" (antisemitism). These two taboos are so well
entrenched in the US, that even mentioning them became a taboo, and two
secondary offences have been created, "racism", an antisemitism
spill-off, and "paedophilia", a homophobia spill-off.
-
- In Israel we feel there is no better way to show allegiance
to American democracy and liberalism than to emasculate the man and de-womanise
the woman. In our smaller Jewish state, in Israel, things have changed
since the macho days of Six Day War, when homosexuality was banned, the
one-eyed Defence Minister Dayan screwed every female conscript and the
Israeli army kicked three Arab armies in a week. Now the gay tendency is
no snag, ministers are sued for kissing a girl, and the army is beaten
up by a few bearded Lebanese. Once Israeli girls served in the army as
non-combatants. Their main job was to look smart and cheerful, and thus
encourage the boys to fight well. Now they follow the example of Judith
and Jael, don helmets, do combat duty and look like East German swimmers
on anabolic steroids.
-
- After ending her tour of duty, with scalps of Palestinians
at her belt (instead of their foreskins, as was Samson's wont) this new
breed of a female sabra is unsuitable for normal mating; and she ends up
in the growing lesbian colony of Tel Aviv. While male homosexuals are often
meek, the females have a drive for leadership and they lead the majority
of gay organisations. Tsippi Livni, the Foreign Minister and an ex-Secret
Service agent, allegedly has some lesbian background, and thus she
passed millions of dollars to gay organisation led by her patriotic
sisters. Traditionally over-independent, Jewish women became even more
so as they now serve in the combat units, earn as much as men do, are protected
from a flirtatious look by ever-alert police. They grew balls and became
like men but even more so, encouraged by the movies showing decisive executive
women and wimpy, obedient, good-for-nothing and admiring men.
-
- The men got the message. If the girls are as hard as
boys, but more demanding and more likely to sue who needs them? Some
statistics claim 20% of Tel Aviv is homosexual, others quote even higher
numbers. Gays and lesbians have full rights: they adopt children, their
"marriage" is recognised if performed abroad, they inherit, they
are positively discriminated in favour of as employees and tenants, for
they have more disposable income and do not become pregnant. They are quite
patriotic: a leading gay poet of Tel Aviv called on Israel to erase Gaza
and Beirut, and break Arab skulls. They insist on their right to serve
in the occupation army. They derive an extra benefit from the occupation:
cheap young Arab bodies. Well-to-do gays shack up with a boy who escapes
the blockade and deprivation of refugee camp, and the authorities do tolerate
this breach of apartheid, though an across-the-barriers union of man and
woman is not tolerated.
-
- A similar process takes place in the larger Jewish state,
the US. Girls are being pushed into military service, they become hard
as nails; and as a result, more and more men turn to other men, and naturally
to younger men, or boys. Priests are probably no exception. The ultimate
guilt is not that of the church, but of the feminist and lesbian movement
which supports women's military service; and of the media that promotes
this attitude.
-
- Now, sexual violence towards a small boy or girl by an
adult man is a repulsive and criminal act, but this is extremely infrequent.
One can stretch it a bit and agree that this is quite a repulsive act even
if no violence is used, though one should be aware that this is a question
of culture rather than an invariably correct judgement.
-
- III
-
- We can't remain indifferent to the travail of the Church
for she has a potential to change the US from the predatory neo-Judaic
state it is today into a peace-loving Christian one. Her bishops went too
far trying to accommodate their enemy, but they have discovered now that
this way leads to perdition. Next time they may be braver, if there ever
is a next time. We should defend her against these attacks whether in the
"abusive priests" cases, or in the insinuations regarding the
late pope Pius and the German Reich. Only the innocent and gullible will
try to ponder the hard facts behind the setup, for there are none relevant.
This is all hype, as Philip Jenkins, an Episcopalian Professor of History
and Religious Studies at Penn State University, proved in his book Pedophiles
and Priests, while the name of Pope Pius was exonerated many times over.
-
- The latter accusation is a mirror image, or a parody
of the accusation of Caiaphas just as the Holocaust religion is a parody
of the Christian faith. In the Christian dogma, Caiaphas gave Christ into
the hands of the Romans to be crucified, and this implied the inherent
hostility of the Judaic leadership and priesthood to the Christ. In the
Holocaust dogma, Pope Pius surrendered the Jews to the Germans, affirming
the eternal enmity of the Holocaustians to the Church. It does not matter
that on a factual level, the accusations have been refuted many times over.
Our tenacious enemy never gives up, never acknowledges his defeat, never
accepts the facts unless they suit him.
-
- Who is the enemy? Some people refer to the Israel Lobby
with their great control over media. In the famed tract, they were called
the Elders of Zion. Others call them Illuminati. I called them the Masters
of Discourse, the operators of the integrated machine of public disinformation
and indoctrination, from the Wall Street Journal to the Wikipedia. Thousands
of networks, newspapers, journals, books, films and ideas are being united
and guided by their invisible hand, while free thought still survives in
the far reaches of the web. The fearsome AIPAC is just the visible tip
of the iceberg, below which are miles and miles of solid ice: media lords,
chief editors, their pundits in short, the Masters of Discourse.
Their power base is in the media, in their ability to create a false presentation
of reality and mislead people. Recently John Pilger described it as The Invisible
Government.
-
- When the Masters of Discourse fought against Communism,
they had a few faked 'facts' they were never tired of brushing up. They
played with stupefying numbers: Communists killed thirty, no, fifty, no,
sixty million, though the freely available demographic figures of the Soviet
Union made it as miraculous as feeding of the multitudes by five loaves.
They invented Soviet anti-Semitism, though Soviet government and security
always had a lot of Jews in high places. They invented Soviet totalitarianism,
though the Soviet people freely supported their government. Instead of
the Holy Grail, they had Raul Wallenberg, who was supposed to have survived
miraculously and to have been kept in some far-away jail. No research would
ever move them to recognize their inventions for being what they were,
namely, lies.
-
- Now they want to destroy Iran and cripple Russia, for
these lands did not forget God. They do fight against the Church, against
every church, be it Communism or Islam or Orthodox Judaism, or their traditional
enemy, the Apostolic Church, for every church defends its flock against
their robbery and resists their dark drive for domination. The church affirms
the primacy of spirit, and of the godlike nature of man; this is anathema
to the Masters. On a deeper level, the Church is their main adversary,
for they are a competing church of sorts, the church of darkness, and they
will not suffer a competitor.
-
- Dominant as they are, they are not omnipotent. We should
not be afraid of them. There is no magic in their incantations. They have
no divine powers behind them. They are impostors. They exploit the old
myths of mankind, forgetting that nothing works without God. The Masters
are twins to Zionists; the Zionists decided to arrange for Israel's return
to the Promised Land as it was promised to their fathers. However, that
return was to be done by God; while humans trying to do God's work are
necessarily rebels. Wannabe demiurges, they created their hellish regime
ruled by their security forces, and destroyed the lovely land of Palestine.
The result was so miserable, that Zionist prince Avrum Burg recently advised
his countrymen to obtain a foreign passport and emigrate.
-
- The Masters of Discourse are trying to create a pseudo-Judaic
universe on a planetary scale. Their vision was grotesquely presented by
the authors of the Protocols, but the reality they brought in is as unsuccessful
as the one their brethren established in Palestine. The same rule of security
forces, the same fear-mongering, the same ideological vise, the same destruction
of nature, the same impoverishment of spirit, the same uprooting, the same
discrimination, the same endless wars, - all quite removed from the Prophetic
promises they tried to emulate.
-
- As rebels against God, they will be defeated. As charlatans
they will be dismantled. Their fall is imminent. But it won't happen without
our hard work, without our understanding being widely spread and generally
understood. We should reject them completely, as completely as we are called
to in our confession of faith.
-
- IV
-
- The Church is the mightiest tool for peace. The Church
may yet lead us to peace if we would vocally support her. With massive
support of people united around the Church, the Middle East wars would
become history. The Americans may look eastward for an example. While the
biggest apostolic church of America is being bled for money, in the East
there is a great upheaval of spirit. In Turkey, after 80 years of materialist
dictatorship, people turned to God and voted for a party of faith. The
same thing happened in Palestine, in the Lord's Land, where Hamas won the
elections. Everywhere in the East, from Cairo to Moscow, the East sheds
the pragmatic cold shackles of godless regimes and turns to God.
-
- The Americans may emulate this current. The Church
the Catholic one and her Orthodox sister is the Islam of the West,
and it is meant to be a compliment. There is positively a place for a Catholic
Hamas rising in the US and changing the rules of the game, taking away
the rule from the laic twins of Republicans and Democrats. If Islam succeeded
in regaining its place of respect and glory in the recently and violently
anti-religious society of Ataturk, if the Orthodoxy made it in Lenin's
land, the Christian Church may achieve the same in the US, by siding with
people, and the people can defeat their enemy, by siding with the church.
-
- The abusing priests' case may eliminate the Catholic
Church in the US altogether as an independent force: already five dioceses
have declared bankruptcy. But the Church still may overcome: she can divest
of all its property and transfer it to the local parishes, remove the collaborationists
and survive -- poor, lean and fighting, as she did in the days of the Apostles.
She should not surrender but meet the challenge. She can lead America to
peace and prosperity as the great positive moral force, she can demand
from the Bush administration that America get out of Iraq now. If the church
will become more active in the struggle for peace, she would attract more
people. Yet, a new independent and autocephalous Church of America could
spring forth from the American Apostolic Churches, the Orthodox and the
Catholic, and her light would defeat the darkness of apostasy.
-
- Alas, some of our friends fail to understand it and join
in the attack on the Church. It is as if an infantry soldier were to join
in the enemy attack on his tanks, just because he hates tankers.
-
- The flagship of pro-Palestinian media is Counterpunch.
This is one of the biggest friendly sites, and they do publish many articles
produced by our friends. But in Counterpunch, one can't say a good word
about the Church, and for sure one can't mention Christ. A Google search
for "church" on their site shows that they are as harsh to the
Church as the Jerusalem Post. (See for instance www.counterpunch.org/sexabuse.html
, www.counterpunch.org/jensen09282006.html , www.counterpunch.org/smith03092004.html
etc)
-
- Recently they published a
piece by a Badruddin Khan who did not stop at repeating brazen lies:
"These hoary tactics were applied by Christians against Jews barely
a century ago. The Catholic Church issues circulars that condemned Jews
for using the blood of Christian children for Passover rites. All Jews
(whether secular, converts, or intermarried) were marked and identified
as sinister and worthy of apartheid. This state of apartheid allowed the
organized evil of the Holocaust to be implemented."
-
- This is a lie and calumny one finds only in the cheapest
Zionist textbooks. As a matter of fact, the Jewish converts were invariably
well received by the church, and some of them rose within its ranks. The
list would be too long, from St Paul and St Peter to St John of Cross and
St Teresa of Avila to the leading bishops in the French church and elsewhere.
The church indeed condemned those Jews who used the blood of Christian
children for Passover rites or for any other purpose; would Badruddin Khan
prefer her to approve of this unorthodox practice? And finally, the reference
to the holocaust is absurd. Hitler's regime was as violently anti-Catholic
as any. They actually pioneered the "abusive priests" line copycatted
by today's American media. I have no doubt that Counterpunch would never
dare to publish similar offensive lies about the Jews, but the Church may
be attacked freely.
-
- Our good combatants Bill and Kathy Christison went to
demonstrate in front of a Catholic cathedral because of Prof Finkelstein's
refused tenure, as they wrote in the Counterpunch. I asked them, why they
didn't go to demonstrate in front of a Jewish institution, be it a synagogue
or a Bnai Brith lodge or the ADL. They replied that "You are quite
correct when you say that in the US it's possible to be anti-anything except
anti-Jewish or anti-Israel. The Israel lobby is so very strong and wields
so very much political power that no politician, no commentator dares criticize
Israel without fear of being labeled anti-Semitic and excluded from mainstream
discourse. In the wake of the Holocaust (about which the lobby constantly
reminds us), few people want to risk being thought anti-Jewish, so this
is a powerful weapon, and becomes more and more powerful as time goes on."
-
- Demonstrating in front of a Catholic church is like looking
under the lamp post for lost coin, which you have actually lost in the
dark. It's dark in front of the Jewish establishments, but we should venture
into darkness to bring light. This is the way of our organisation, Deir
Yassin Remembered who regularly demonstrate in front of synagogues. And
in front of the cathedrals, we should demonstrate in support of the Church,
not against her.
-
- The Catholic Church is one of the greatest champions
of Palestine. They have a Palestinian Patriarch, they do defend Palestine.
All established churches support Palestine; with the apostolic churches
taking the leading role, and the Catholics often lead them all. During
the 2002 Bethlehem siege by the Jews, the Catholic Church led the actions
and I participated in them (read)
I am not a Catholic, actually I belong to the competing native sister,
the Orthodox Church of Holy Land, but in some ways, the Catholic Church
is even more supportive of Palestine than our own.
-
- Bill and Kathy disagreed: "The Catholic Church has
certainly done some good things for the Palestinians, but not nearly enough.
Where has the church been while Israel oppresses Christians, including
Catholics, in Palestine? Have we heard any protests from this Pope over
the walling in and devastation of Bethlehem, or from the last Pope when
Israel besieged the Church of the Nativity during the 2002 reinvasion of
the West Bank? Where was the Church when Israel ethnically cleansed numerous
Christian Palestinian villages in 1948? And indeed, where has the Church
been as Israel has oppressed members of another faith, Muslims, for 60
years, desecrating Muslim places of worship and killing and ethnically
cleansing Muslim people--for the sole reason that they are not Jews?"
-
- I replied: The Catholic Church is doing as much as she
can, but she can't do much, two hundred years after Voltaire. You ask,
"Where has the church been while Israel oppresses Christians, including
Catholics, in Palestine?" Forgive me, but it reminds me the standard
Jewish line of "Where has the church been during the holocaust?"
Stalin was more realistic when he noticed that the Pope has not too many
divisions. Actually, the Church protested every Israeli crime. The Church
could do more if she were not constantly attacked by the Jewish Lobby -
and by the well-meaning people who do not understand that they undermine
this defence of Palestine.
-
- Once, the Church led the Crusade to liberate the Holy
Land. Now, she can lead the Crusade of Peace for the same purpose.
