High-ranking members of US military part of ‘Knights of Malta,’ ‘Opus Dei,’ reporter claims

*snip*

He further claimed that Gen. Stanley McChrystal, Vice Admiral William McRaven and others in the JSOC were members of the "Knights of Malta" and "Opus Dei," two little known Catholic orders.

"They do see what they're doing -- and this is not an atypical attitude among some military -- it's a crusade, literally," Hersh reportedly continued. "They see themselves as the protectors of the Christians. They're protecting them from the Muslims [as in] the 13th century. And this is their function."

He added that members of these societies have developed a secret set of insignias that represent "the whole notion that this is a culture war" between religions.

It was President George W. Bush who first invoked images of a holy war in the Middle East, when he suggested soon after Sept. 11, 2001 that the US was on a "crusade" in the region.

The "Knights of Malta" were a Catholic order founded in 1085 as a group of monks who cared for the wounded. It evolved into a military order that safeguarded Christian pilgrims from Muslims during the nine "Crusades," where Europe's Christian states laid siege to Muslims for control of Jerusalem.

"Opus Dei," popularly depicted in the Hollywood film "The DaVinci Code," was founded in 1928 and officially accepted as part of the Catholic church in 1947. The group's website claimed their principle calling was to bring about a "Christian renewal" around the world.

so we are in someones crusade just cuz they want a crusade

doesnt work that way, they are not there to push others into on consentual issues (they can do it on their own free time out of the govt and legally)

MURDEROUS BASTARDS..CHRISTIAN WARRIORS...WHO HAS KILLED THE MOST PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET?..ONE OF THE POPES CALLED HITLER THE RIGHT ARM OF GOD..CRAZY FUCKING WORLD WE LIVE IN

Says Seymore Hersh, Jesuit Co-adjunter.

Popping their own. :)

Yes. Yes we are.


Our military has been co-scripted into the Holy Roman Army.

It's all about the NWO or next Roman Empire.

Welcome to the new crusades folks

Sounds like a damn interesting read.

Surely it will get a crappy NYTimes and WAPost review.

When I was in the Air Force, there were a lot of active duty personnel and their families who practiced the Wicca religion. I was invited to join on several occasions, but, declined due to lack of interest.

Kicking ass OP, totally awesome shit here.

I am reminded of Godfather Part III, even after all the bribed Senators and everything, that's all child's play for the made man Michael, eventually he becomes a Knight of Malta.

Georgetown is a Jesuit university

Says Seymore Hersh, Jesuit Co-adjunter.

Popping their own. :)

How many of the bomb throwers want to google Michael Aquino and then come back with their retorts?

umm..No..I'm not Seymour Hersh..but you are probably right about him being a Jesuit Co-adjunter..the military is probably tptb worst enemy imo

Let the pope keep the kingdom and the glory -- the CIA wants the power.
—By Martin A. Lee | July/August 1983 Issue

One day in July 1944, as the Second World War raged throughout Europe, General William "Wild Bill" Donovan was ushered into an ornate chamber in Vatican City for an audience with Pope Pius XII. Donovan bowed his head reverently as the pontiff intoned a ceremonial prayer in Latin and decorated him with the Grand Cross of the Order of Saint Sylvester, the oldest and most prestigious of papal knighthoods. This award has been given to only 100 other men in history, who "by feat of arms, or writings, or outstanding deeds, have spread the Faith, and have safeguarded and championed the Church."

Although a papal citation of this sort rarely, if ever, states why a person is inducted into the "Golden Militia," there can be no doubt that Donovan earned his knighthood by virtue of the services he rendered to the Catholic hierarchy in World War II, during which he served as chief of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the wartime predecessor to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). In 1941, the year before the OSS was officially constituted, Donovan forged a close alliance with Father Felix Morlion, founder of a European Catholic intelligence service known as Pro Deo. When the Germans overran western Europe, Donovan helped Morlion move his base of operations from Lisbon to New York. From then on, Pro Deo was financed by Donovan, who believed that such an expenditure would result in valuable insight into the secret affairs of the Vatican, then a neutral enclave in the midst of fascist Rome. When the Allies liberated Rome in 1944, Morlion re-established his spy network in the Vatican; from there he helped the OSS obtain confidential reports provided by apostolic delegates in the Far East, which included information about strategic bombing targets in Japan.

It would be so much more alarming if the headline read:

Rick Santorum traveled in 2002 to Rome to speak at a centenary celebration of the birth of Saint Josemaría Escrivá, founder of Opus Dei.
