The Sovereign Military Order of
Malta, also known as the original Sovereign Military
Order of St. John of Jerusalem, is a closed fraternity of
the Roman Catholic Church. Its initiated members must be
Catholic and have served in the military. They participate in secret
ceremonies and feudal ritual dress, and embrace a strong class/caste
mentality as part of their initiation into Rosicrucian dogma.
The upper grades are fastidiously aristocratic and must be able to
display a family coat-of-arms dating back at least 300 years in
unbroken succession from father to son. The Sovereign Grand
Master of the order is recognized as a head of state, and
his authority is ensured by his secular ranking as a Prince,
and his ecclesiastical ranking as a Cardinal. Under
international law this organization has independent Sovereign
status, which assures nationalistic loyalty from its members, above
and beyond allegiance to their own country - they also have
Permanent Observer status at the United Nations.
The current Grand Master, Andrew Willoughby Bertie, is
descended from Mary Stuart (Mary Queen of Scots) which
places him firmly in the Sion/Grail historical
scenario.
The order and its members have been proven to be linked with the "Rat
Run", the post-WWII escape route used by high-ranking
Nazis and death camp scientists from defeated Germany to the
Americas. Sovereign Knight of Malta passports were issued
with false identities that allowed escape from prosecution for war
crimes. Perversely, after the war the order’s highest decoration,
the ’Grand Cross of Merit’, was awarded to Nazi General
Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler’s Eastern Front intelligence
chief, who was highly complicit in the atrocities carried out by
the Nazis in Russia and Eastern
Europe - mainly the unprecedented slaughter of Jews and
civilian Slavs.
The brotherhood’s Catholic and aristocratic roots made the
modern knights fervently anti-communist. The order has been largely
responsible for the construction of the CIA, and many
of its global covert operations. The founding fathers of the CIA William "Wild Bill" Donovan and Allen Dulles
were knights, as were many other CIA hierarchy
including Ronald Reagan’s director William Casey and
JFK’s director John McCone. According to "Watergate"
journalist Carl Bernstein, Casey gave Pope John
Paul II unprecedented access to CIA intelligence
including spy satellites and agents.
In fact, one could blame the start of the Cold War upon "Wild
Bill" Donovan personally. At the end of the First World
War Donovan led a secret mission to Siberia to
observe the Russian Revolution. Due to his reconnaissance an
American unit was sent to fight the Russian Bolsheviks who were
broadly considered Allies, as they were still fighting the Germans
alongside the British and the French in the trenches of Europe. The
American troops could not understand why they were being ordered to
burn the villages and kill "these poor and hungry peasants, who’ve
been treated so terribly by their rulers", as one "doughboy" wrote
to his wife. It is historically un-American to side with the
aristocratic powers of Europe against the common man.
Donovan’s
motives for fighting the Bolsheviks could only have
been due to his Vatican/Knights of Malta allegiances,
as at this time the Russian Revolution was no threat to the
American Republic. As a consequence in July 1944 Pope Pius XII
awarded Donovan the ’Grand Cross of the Order of St.
Sylvester’, the oldest and most prestigious of papal
knighthoods, and the highest Catholic award ever received by an
American. Less than one hundred men have received this award
throughout history.
The Knights of Malta’s key spheres of control are
Africa and Latin America, and include many
dictators such as mass murderer General Pinochet in their
ranks.
Membership in Latin America includes Masonic
lodge "P2" fascists and many surviving
Nazi players, who are directly responsible for the formation
of the modern neo-Nazi movement. Knight and Nazi
escapee Otto "Scarface" Skorzeny, who led a
commando raid on the Cathar region of
France in search of occult artifacts including the Holy Grail,
played a major role in the Vatican’s "Rat Run".
He was a close friend of Argentinian president and knight Juan
Peron, who recent CIA documents prove was also
involved in the laundering of Nazi gold through the
Vatican Bank. Conveniently for Nazi members who did not
escape Europe, William Donovan served as chief aide to the
American prosecutor at the post-war Nuremberg trials, after
handing over the reigns of the OSS/CIA to fellow
knight Allen Dulles.
As Roman Catholic author Penny Lernoux reveals in her "People
of God":
"After the war, the Vatican,
the OSS, the SS, and various
branches of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta
joined to do battle against the common Soviet enemy - and to
help Nazi war criminals escape... Baron
Luigi Parrilli, an Italian aristocrat and Knight of
Malta/papal chamberlain, took part in
negotiations between SS leaders and the CIA’s
Allen Dulles."
Prior to working for the OSS
(he headed the OSS station in Switzerland during the war) Allen
Dulles and his law partner John Foster had served as
business managers and lawyers to
John D. Rockefeller’s
Standard Oil. They personally brokered the partnership between
Standard Oil and
I.G. Farben
chemical
corporation. I.G.Farben not only produced gasoline for the
Nazi war machine, it manufactured "Zyklon B", used slave
labor before and during the war (including their huge petro-chemical
factory adjacent to Auschwitz death camp), owned Bayer
Pharmaceuticals which according to a current lawsuit was
directly involved in Dr. Josef Mengele’s horrific Auschwitz experiments, and was spared from Allied bombings
due to its Rockefeller interests.
Leading war-time journalist George Seldes attempted to reveal this "unholy alliance"
through his newspaper articles, but was rarely published at the
time, and efforts were made to kill him. Joseph Heller’s
satirical novel "Catch 22" made light of this insanity with
his "we agreed to bomb our own bases in return for the Nazis buying
our chocolate covered cotton".
As the Cold War intensified, former Vatican agent and
knight Joseph H. Retinger, acting on behalf of
the Vatican and the Priory of Sion, effectively forged ties with the European
Council of Princes (the respectable name for the
Dragon Sovereignty), the
CIA, and Britain’s MI6 to create the
New World Order think-tank
"The
Bilderberg Group", of which Henry Kissinger
is a permanent member. It’s first chairman was
Prince Bernhard of
the Netherlands, who held that position for the next 22 years,
until a financial scandal forced him to resign. His daughter,
Shell Oil co-owner Queen Beatrix regularly attends
meetings, as do ample other European aristocratic players. The
undemocratic "Bilderberg Group" continues to play a
major part in international affairs, and remains closed to public
scrutiny and participation.
Documents show that New York’s Cardinal Francis Spellman was
directly involved in the 1954 right-wing military
coup of Guatemala, which led to the murder
of thousands, and of which the CIA has acknowledged
complicity. He has also been linked to neo-Nazi group "P2"
and the Mafia by his long involvement with "P2" member
Archbishop Paul Marcinkus of Chicago, former head of the
Vatican Bank, who was under serious suspicion by Italian
authorities for the untimely death of Pope John Paul I.
Cardinal Spellman was not only an old friend of CIA
creator "Wild Bill" Donovan (who previously had a law
firm in New York) but was the actual head of the Knights of
Malta in America throughout the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s, and was
responsible for vast sums of money raised from its members, who have
to pay thousands annually to remain in the order.
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM)
is directly allied with international Freemasonry, from where they
recruit their new elite brethren. Hence, the Knights of Malta
and the Knights Templar are the Rosicrucian
upper-degrees of Freemasonry.
According to "Knights of Darkness" author Francois Hervet:
"Freemasonry generally purports to
be hostile to Catholicism... nevertheless in December of 1969 an
exclusive meeting was held in the Rome office of Count
Umberto Ortolani, the ambassador of the Knights of
Malta to Uruguay, who has been called ’the brains’
behind the "P2" Masonic lodge. In addition to
Ortolani, the meeting included only Licio Gelli, Roberto
Calvi, and Michele Sindona";
all of whom have been implicated in the
death of Pope John Paul I and massive bank fraud.
Ironically, in recent years a belief in the Catholic faith has not
been an essential prerequisite for potential members who have the
right connections. Non-aristocratic parties can now be initiated by
the "Magistral Grace" of the Grand Master,
although not in Britain, Germany and other European countries with a
strong tradition of nobility. However, this has allowed many
Americans to join, and an "Order of Merit" is bestowed upon
those who have outstandingly served the Knights or their works. Past
Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush are such
honorary initiates, and Reagan was the toast of an
extravagant dinner held by the Order in 1989.
With more than 11,000 knights worldwide, the Grand Master and
Sovereign Council remain based in Rome. Their goal of
political Feudalism is clearly seen in the actions of
Prince Hans Adam II, the Habsburg-supported ruling monarch of
Liechtenstein, and a prominent Knight of Malta
and member of the Vatican’s Opus Dei,
who in October 1999 was reprimanded by the European Court of
Human Rights for claiming he had final constitutional authority
over his country’s Supreme Court. While recent successful attempts
at maneuvering Europe towards accepting a European President have
been led by Knight of Malta Gistard d’Estaing, and
backed by Britain, France, Germany, Italy & Spain.
The Protestant equivalent of the
Catholic Knights of Malta, also known as the Order of St.
John of Jerusalem, gained greater credibility when the head
of the British Empire HM Queen Victoria became their
Sovereign Head in 1888. This Order of St. John, whose current
Sovereign Head is HM Queen Elizabeth II, similarly use the
Cross of Malta insignia as their emblem. While they too claim
that charity and protecting the poor are their main cause, this has
been used as a tool of Western Imperialism for the last 1000
years, and began with the first Crusades to occupy
Jerusalem.
These "charitable concerns" are
unlikely to take precedence over their secret historical agenda -
the fulfillment of the prophecies of St. John the Divine,
whose Revelation acts as a political template for these
historically-intoxicated and reactionary-minded organizations. It is
additionally disturbing that the Protestant Order of St. John
was recently granted non-Governmental membership of the United
Nations. Like its Catholic counterpart, this UN
position gives the Protestant Order greater access to UN decision-making and vulnerable developing countries.
Undoubtedly, the interests of the Vatican, the British Crown, and its Rosicrucian fraternity,
will take precedence over any genuine aid offered to the world’s
poorest and needy.
The
unusually shaped Cross of Malta was the original
emblem of the controversial Knights Templar, and was
adopted as the official insignia of the Knights of Malta,
when the Knights Templar were forced to submit to the
authority of the Vatican.
Occult initiates will discover that just like the inverted pentagram
or five-pointed star, the Cross of Malta is similarly
a cryptogram for the Goat of Mendes, the
androgenous Templar idol Baphomet, representing
the goat’s beard and horns.
This is the symbol of ruling matter and spirit by the Will, and the
controlled magickal direction of sexual energies.
Past Grand Masters of the Knights of Malta, including
Manuel de Fonseca, are known to have been initiates of the
Templar tradition, and according to the
Dragon Order’s current
Sovereign Grand Master Prince Nicholas de Vere von Drakenberg,
who is a direct descendant of the originator of the Knights
Templar Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon, the Templars
were "a Satanic order, whose rituals included infanticide, sodomy
and witchcraft".
