Part 3

In its zeal to stamp out communism, the Vatican set up alliances during World War II with various secret societies, fascist groups and spying agencies and has maintained these networks ever since. The Vatican has been obsessed with the destruction of the Eastern Orthodox Church, and particularly so with regards to the Russian Orthodox Church. The division that came about in the Constantine split, in essence, prevents the Vatican from exercising global religious supremacy. International journalist, David G. Guyatt deals with the Vatican’s alliances in his writings. David says Albert Vincent Carone is one of those people who spent his life dancing between raindrops and turning invisible wherever a shadow lingered. He existed and also didn't exist. Al Carone - unlike his near namesake, Al Capone - truly was a paradox wrapped in a mystery concealed behind an enigma. Carone was a detective in the New York Police Department, but this didn't stop him from becoming a "made" man in the Genovese crime family. He knew all the leading Mafiosi of his day, including Vito Genovese, Sam Giancana, Santos Trafficante, Joe Colombo and Pauley Castellano amongst others. To Carone's daughter, Dee, they were all known as "Uncle". When she got married, her father arranged two different reception rooms to separate the Mob guests from the NYPD guests. But this was more window-dressing than anything else. One of Carone's principal functions in the NYPD was to act as the "bagman" in protecting shipments of CIA drugs to the various Mafia families.

Carone died in 1990 under mysterious circumstances. This followed a period of great personal disenchantment with his life, following a secretive mission to Mexico in 1985 when a large number of innocent women and children died unnecessarily. His death was horrific, reports Mike Ruppert, editor of ‘From The Wilderness’ newsletter, who has investigated Carone's life story and written a special report on it. Meanwhile, another "Uncle" was Bill Casey, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) during the Reagan Administration. Casey had been with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) during World War II. During the 1970s, he became Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) which regulates the US investment industry. During his tenure in that role, Casey used Carone as a "cut out" or intermediary to pass sensitive insider information to Mob capo (boss) Pauley Castellano, says his daughter, Dee. Carone was also a Full Colonel in the US Army, where he had operated in the Army's Counter Intelligence Corp (CIC). In view of his close friendship with Bill Casey, it is not surprising that he was also a covert operative for the CIA. But that wasn't the half of it. Carone was also a Grand Knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM), which historically has been the military arm of the Vatican and is regarded as a separate State with full powers of statehood, including issuing its own diplomatic passports. In more recent decades SMOM has acted as a funding conduit, a black market gold channel and money laundering for the CIA, amongst others. It is also known to act as the Vatican's intelligence arm. For example, it was alleged to have been involved in the disappearance of Russia's gold reserves - over 2,000 metric tons - which vanished during 1991, around the time that Soviet Premier Mikhail Gorbachev was ousted from office. Malta knighthoods are awarded to many leading individuals who are part of the military and intelligence community. The CIA's Bill Casey, was a Knight of Malta. Former NATO General and later US Secretary of State Alexander Haig is also a Malta Knight. Another is General Vernon Walters, the former Deputy Director of the CIA under Director (DCIA) George Bush, and was later appointed as a roving ambassador during the Reagan Administration. The legendary head of the OSS (the WWII precursor of the CIA), "Wild" Bill Donovan, was made a Knight of Malta along with his wartime compatriot and later CIA Chief of Counterintelligence, James Jesus Angleton. John McCone, another prominent member of the US "spook" agency, was also distinguished with a Malta knighthood. Freemason William (Wild Bill) Donovan was a member of the Aleister Crowley's satanic O.T.O., and frequent guest at the O.T.O. campgrounds at Nyack, NY. What does O.T.O. represent? Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O. - 'Order of the Temple of the East' or 'Order of Oriental Templars') is an international fraternal and religious organization founded at the beginning of the 20th century by Carl Kellner and Theodor Reuss. English author and occultist, Aleister Crowley is the best-known and most influential member of the order.

Originally it was intended to be modelled after and associated with European Freemasonry, such as Masonic Templar organizations, but under the leadership of Aleister Crowley, O.T.O. was reorganized around the Law of Thelema as its central religious principle. This Law—expressed as "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" and "Love is the law, love under will" — and it was promulgated in 1904 with the writing of The Book of the Law. Aleister Crowley’s mother believed her son was Satan. He later said he was #666, referred to in the Bible. It’s unlikely he was Mr. Big, or the Antichrist, despite all that we know about him. There is an interesting story circulating in and around the occult world that few people understand. It seems that one of the most notorious individuals in British history may have contributed to the lineage of our current (*now past) president. Evidence points to the disturbing possibility that Crowley was the true father of Barbara Bush, the former First Lady and mother to George W. Bush; Barbara passed away on April 17, 2018. If you look at pictures of the two, you can see that the resemblance of Crowley and Bush are too apparent to dismiss. Anyone who remotely knows genetics can see these two people are related!!! The story may seem difficult to believe at first, until one learns more about the social interconnected-relations that tied these unlikely parties together. Specifically, we must focus on a fascinating woman named Pauline Pierce, born Pauline Robinson—whose third child was named Barbara. Most sources divulge little about this woman. We learn more about her husband Marvin Pierce, the president of the McCall Corporation, which published ‘McCall’s’ magazine and ‘Redbook’. He married Pauline, a beautiful young socialite, in 1919. Their first child, Martha, was born the next year; the second, James, was born in 1921. At this time, Aleister Crowley inhabited what must have seemed a very different world, as he embarked upon the great communal experiment of the Abbey of Thelema in Italy. During the Abbey period, a Crowley follower had accidentally died during a magical (Crowley’s spelling, as they were known) ceremony. The incident created a firestorm of unwanted publicity (the sensationalist British press labeled Crowley “The Wickedest Man in the World”), which prompted Mussolini’s government to expel Crowley and his followers from Italian soil. Crowley is known to have drawn a satanic image on the ground, and reciting a ritual, that would evoke the appearance of demonic images. When Crowley was 50 years old, he was residing in the home of Frank and Nellie O’Hara in Paris, France. In early 1924, Nellie was visited by her American friend, Pauline Pierce, the wife of Marvin Pierce, president of the McCall Corporation, which published ‘McCall’s’ and ‘Redbook’ magazines.

4

During Pauline’s visit, Crowley underwent what he termed the “supreme ordeal”, an initiation into the Masonic Ipsissimus Grade — the highest magickal achievement in his Order. The initiation rite included choosing one or more experienced attendants, charged with arousing and exhausting him sexually by every means possible, employing every artifice and stimulant. In that place and time, Nellie and Pauline were the most suited for this task. Pauline returned to America, and on June 8, 1925, eight months after Crowley’s “supreme ordeal”, Pauline gave birth to a daughter she named Barbara. Barbara grew up to marry George H. W. Bush, who later became President of the United States. Is Aleister Crowley the father of Barbara Bush? It’s very possible and highly likely that she knows her real father was Crowley and is working behind the scenes to carry on the agenda he started. Illuminati families are way more aware of things like this than we think they are. I suspect Crowley is indeed Barbara Bush’s real father. Barbara Bush matches her real father, Aleister Crowley to near perfection. The face and eyes, it’s all very clear, Barbara Bush has no resemblance to Marvin Pierce (Her alleged father – image to the right), but is a perfect match to Crowley. Two very recent pictures of Barbara Bush and her father, Aleister Crowley. You should be able to discern the evil in both. As a matter of fact, if you took the hair off Barbara Bush, she could be Aleister Crowley’s twin (see above images). However, more than one person has noted the resemblance and it is astounding!—and this resemblance is not just physical. Many will recall the former First Lady’s haughty and thoughtless remarks in the aftermath of the Katrina disaster. Those “in the know” were reminded of Aleister Crowley’s similar reaction to the loss of life which occurred during the ascent of Kangchanjunga, an expedition he commanded: “This is precisely the sort of thing with which I have no sympathy whatsoever.” Barbara Bush (Who was also the cousin of George Bush Sr. in addition to being his wife) is said to have made a truly despicable statement when asked about the war casualties in Iraq… She stated…”It’s not relevant, why should I concern my beautiful mind with that?” Hmm… beautiful mind? No, she has an evil mind, the same as her father Crowley. This is the same disgusting first lady you admired for 8 years! (George Bush Sr. was the REAL president when Reagan was in power); and George Bush was not his real name. She is not who she presents herself to be. She is the product of generational satanism. And each generation gets more and more evil than the one which preceded it. -(“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” -(Ephesians 5:11)

In short, Nazi Otto Skorzeny claimed that the true identity of George H.W. Bush was “George H. Scherff, Jr., the son of Nikola Tesla’s illegal-immigrant, German-born accountant, George H. Scherff, Sr.” A picture is worth a thousand words: But this was not the only bombshell Otto Skorzeny delivered that day in late 1999. Producing a shoe box full of 60-years-worth of his personal photographs, Skorzeny showed them to Berman and described

each one in great detail. The collection featured a photo of a young, majestic Skorzeny in full S.S. Nazi military dress, next to his Führer, Adolph Hitler. Then there were photos of Reinhard Gehlen (S.S. spy and assassin) Dr. Joseph Mengele (the “Angel of Death”) Martin Bormann (Hitler aide and S.S. assassin) and Adolph Otto Skorzeny went on to be a S.S./ODESSA/CIA master spy and assassin. Similar to many secret societies, O.T.O. membership is based on an initiatory system with a series of degree ceremonies that use ritual drama to establish fraternal bonds and impart spiritual and philosophical teachings. O.T.O. also includes the Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica (EGC) or Gnostic Catholic Church, which is the ecclesiastical arm of the Order. Its central rite, which is public, is called Liber XV, or the Gnostic Mass.

President Roosevelt wanted to capitalize on Donovan's contacts. Near the end of World War II, President Roosevelt started the process by which the Nazi SS would ultimately be protected. Even before America entered the Second World War, Roosevelt wanted to know what Hitler had at his disposal that enabled him to gain power so rapidly, solidify control so completely, and destroy Continental Freemasonry so resolutely. To find out he sent "Wild Bill" Donovan to Europe on a fact-finding mission. 32nd Degree Freemason Roosevelt could not have picked a more able man than Donovan, a student of eastern mysticism and Masonry. In Europe, Donovan discovered that Interpol (International Police), founded at Vienna in 1923, had been taken over by the Nazis after their invasion of Austria in 1938. By 1940 the Nazis had transferred the entire Interpol apparatus to Wannsee near Berlin. Under the direction of Nazi intelligence chief Reinhard Heydrick, Interpol became the world's most advanced international intelligence force. Donovan returned to Washington and recommended to the President the founding of a central intelligence agency on the scale of Heydrick's Interpol. In 1941 Donovan was made head of the new Office of Coordinator of Information (OCI), later to be renamed Office of Strategic Services (OSS). You can read the story in ‘Scarlet and the Beast’, Vol. 1, 3rd ed., chapter 27. In his work for President Roosevelt, Donovan knew all of the important occult people in Europe and taught the Luciferian Doctrine of Aleister Crowley’s O.T.O. I should note here that all of these secret societies and organizations are deeply connected by their worship of Lucifer and the Luciferian Doctrine. I note this because not all Freemasons, or Knights of Malta, or Jesuits, are evil per se; many become members for career advancement and business reasons. They gullibly serve by performing the charitable works of the Lodges, believing they are doing the good works of community minded organizations. I personally know a 33rd Degree Masonic Shriner who has a busy chiropractic practice. He is oblivious to the satanic activities at the very top, while he goes

6

about on a weekend dressing up as a clown and riding mini-motor cycles in firemen’s and holiday parades. In my own family, many of my uncles and cousins were policemen for the city of Pittsburgh, and all were active Lodge brothers in Freemasonry. All would have refuted the idea or belief Freemasonry was evil. The Masonic murder of Pope John Paul I is documented by David Yallop in his book, ‘In God's Name’ (1984). Subtitled, “An Investigation into the Assassination of Pope John Paul I”, Yallop reveals startling information that incriminates Freemasonry in the death of the first John Paul. He notes the mysterious correlation between the 33rd degree of Masonry and the time of the new pope's death: "Sometime during the late evening of September 28, 1978, and the early morning of September 29, 1978, thirty-three days after his election, Albino Luciani [Pope John Paul I] died." Yallop confirms that all the Cardinals and Bishops in the Vatican who were physically proximate to the Pope that night were Grand Orient Masons. He lists some of the lodges in which they were initiated and gives their Masonic code names. He also notes that Italian Grand Orient Freemasonry founded a lodge called Propaganda Two (P-2), the membership of which was, and still is, primarily Mafia. What would bring the violent hand of Masonry upon such a popular and untested pontiff? According to Yallop, Pope John Paul I's transgression was that he discovered some priests in the Vatican who had joined the Masonic Lodge and were at that moment laundering illegal drug money and conducting illegal banking practices through the Vatican Bank in behalf of the P-2 Masonic Lodge. Word leaked that on September 29th the new pope would replace some 20 of the Bishops and Cardinals he knew were involved. During the night of September 28th, the Pope was poisoned with an overdose of his own heart medicine — Digitalis. Yallop also suggests that killing the Pope on his thirty-third day in office was a Masonic signature. On "War Stories," April 30, 2006, it was confirmed that the C.I.A. contracted 33rd Degree Freemason “Wild Bill” Donovan to kill Lieutenant-General Patton. The reason? Patton wanted to fight the Russians, which would have triggered World War III. The OSS staged Patton's auto accident. All facts about Patton's death have been expunged from history. Patton had written his wife that he intended to resign his commission upon returning to the United States, and to run as a candidate for President. The list goes on. Most interesting is Reinhard Gehlen, the former Nazi intelligence expert recruited by the US in 1945-46 to head the Gehlen Organization - a secret, German-based intelligence arm of the United States that was composed of former SS and Gestapo agents, many of whom, including Klaus Barbie, were wanted Nazi war criminals. I recommend readers get a hold of Jim Marrs book, ‘The Rise of the Fourth Reich in America’ published in 2009. The foregoing names amount to a listing of some of the most powerful and influential members of the western intelligence community over the last seven decades. One Vatican group that has extremely close ties to the Knights of Malta is the ultra-right-wing Opus Dei. This is an immensely powerful faction in the Vatican today, and its public "do good" activities eclipse a plethora of the darkest political and financial machinations known to man. It will not come as a

7

surprise, perhaps, that Carone was closely associated with Opus Dei and, in particular, with a covert operation called Operation Amadeus that originated back in 1944.

FROM RATLINES TO DRUG SMUGGLING ROUTES

This highly secretive operation was part of the Operation Sunrise negotiations conducted between Allen Dulles - the then senior wartime OSS officer in Switzerland, but he would later become the Director of the CIA – as well as overseeing the “ratlines” along with SS General Karl Wolff. At the time, this debonair and well-connected SS officer commanded the SS and Gestapo contingents in Italy. The result of these negotiations (at least those parts that are now known) was an agreement affording amnesty to an extensive roster of SS-Gestapo forces, in exchange for their agreement to shift their allegiance to the West in the pre-planned, covert battle aimed at defeating the Soviet communist "menace" - in other words, the "Cold War". A spin-off of these Dulles-Wolff arrangements were the Vatican-run "ratlines" that aided wanted Nazi war criminals to slink to safety. Tens of thousands of SS and other Nazis escaped capture as a result of these ratlines. These included such figures as Franz Stangl, commandant at Treblinka extermination camp, and his friend Gustav Wagner, who ran the Sobibor death camp. Others to escape in this manner included Adolf Eichmann, the architect of the Holocaust. Eichmann was later captured by Israeli intelligence agents, smuggled to Tel Aviv where he stood trial and was eventually executed. In comparison, Dr. Joseph Mengele - known as "the White Angel", a war criminal wanted for his cruel and inhuman experiments on death camp inmates at Auschwitz - escaped to Argentina and lived a long life. Like Adolf Hitler, Dr. Mengele, made several trips to the USA in disguise. The story of Dr. Mengele was made into a gripping movie called ‘The Boys from Brazil’. When the movie was released in DVD format I purchased the movie, and have watched it many times. Operation Amadeus was exclusively concerned with the flight of SS and Nazi war criminals to the South American continent and their later ferocious covert actions against the indigenous populations were justified under the banner of "anti-communism". One individual engaged in Amadeus activities was former Gestapo officer Klaus Barbie, known to the world as "the Butcher of Lyon". The principal means of funding Operation Amadeus activities was the hugely profitable narcotics business. Large stocks of SS morphia (German word for morphine) had been smuggled out of Europe and into "Catholic" South America at the end of the War in accordance with the Sunrise agreement. The Vatican is a dominant player in the international drug trade and trafficking in child slavery. The morphine was accompanied by looted SS gold and large quantities of counterfeit British banknotes, forged in concentration camps by captive but skilled counterfeiters as part of an SS scheme known as Operation Bernhardt.

8

Away from the prying eyes of Israeli agents, the escape "lines" were used to move wanted men around in South America. These also proved ideal as smuggling routes for drugs. Decades later, the stocks of heroin smuggled into the United States for distribution by the CIA-protected Mafia would be complemented with locally grown cocaine. One of the figures to emerge into the spotlight during the 1980s who was deeply involved in this narcotics traffic was Colonel Oliver North, who authorized the exchange of guns for drugs to finance Contra operations. Oliver North was known to Al Carone under his "work" name, "John Caffrey". This was the time when Carone was engaged in CIA-controlled cocaine transactions with Joe "Pickles" Percilia, a member of the Colombo crime family. These curious and usually concealed connections between governments (in the form of the military and intelligence community), organized crime, the Vatican and Nazi war criminals have some significant history. Not the least of which was the secret agreement that was reached between US Naval Intelligence officers and Mafia don, Charles "Lucky" Luciano during World War II. This resulted in the Mafia's decision to aid and assist the Allies by contacting Mob figure Vito Genovese in 1943 to prepare the way for the Allied landing in Sicily. As earlier outlined, it was primarily those SS-Gestapo units that were located in Italy under command of SS General Wolff that were initially concerned in the “Operation Sunrise” negotiations. And while large numbers of former Nazis were fleeing south to fight the communist menace in Latin America - and, more importantly, to profit personally from their involvement in the lucrative drug and gun business - in Europe, the spadework was being laid to overthrow or thwart democratically elected governments via a network of fascist-manned "Stay Behind units", organized under the aegis of “Operation Gladio”. Not surprisingly, this would also lead to certain involved figures making personal fortunes out of other people's misery - a circumstance that is so commonplace it is barely worth mentioning. These neo-fascist activities would come to prominence in the early 1980s following the collapse of Banco Ambrosiano and the death of Italian banker Roberto Calvi, who was "suicided" and left hanging under London's Blackfriars Bridge. This would lead to sensational disclosures about the role of the Vatican Bank, the Institute for Works of Religion (IOR), in Calvi's financial empire and would quickly grow to include the activities of Mafia financier, Michele Sindona - whose activities, in turn, would implicate the leading blue-blood banks in Europe and America in Mafia activities. Both Sindona and Calvi were close to Opus Dei, which lost around $55 million when Sindona's empire crashed. According to his family, Roberto Calvi was deeply engrossed in helping Opus Dei take control of the IOR when he was killed. IOR is the official name of the Vatican Bank.

9

Meanwhile, both Calvi and Sindona were members of the secretive Propaganda Due (P2) Masonic lodge, which is said to have been a "parallel government" in waiting and which planned to effect a coup d'état in Italy following a Communist Party victory at the polls. P2 was run by former Italian fascist and member of the Nazi SS, Licio Gelli - dubbed "the Puppet Master" by the Italian press. Gelli's connections to the ultra-hard-right and fascists in Europe and Latin America were extensive. In fact, he had been deeply involved in establishing the Vatican-run ratlines that aided the worst Nazi war criminals to escape Allied justice at the end of WWII. The ‘rat-lines’ were operated by the Vatican and the CIA; all told an estimated 50,000 Nazis were helped to freedom, escaping arrest, prosecution and imprisonment. The Vatican provided Vatican passports, funds, papers, and needed documents to any Nazi desiring to escape the clutches of the advancing elements of the four major powers: Russia, USA, UK, and France. Gelli had numerous powerful friends, including former Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. He was also a personal friend of Argentina's General Juan Perón, and his close associations with Argentina would later lead him to be a key figure in shipping a supply of French Exocet missiles to sink the British Task Force ships during the Falklands War. In this endeavor he worked closely with Ronald R. Rewald, founder of the Hawaiian-based financial institution Bishop, Baldwin, Rewald, Dillingham & Wong - a CIA proprietary company and forerunner of the CIA-owned Nugan Hand Bank, along with BCCI (referred to as the Bank for Crooks and Criminals International in the under-world). Officially, it stood for Bank of Credit and Commerce International. The involvement of a CIA front company engaged in financing and providing weapons to be used against a key American ally (Britain) with the wholehearted public support of the US Government may seem somewhat duplicitous. However, in the world of "black ops", "friends" and "enemies" are interchangeable words and working both sides of the fence is an accepted practice. In terms of hierarchy, Gelli reported to Umberto Ortolani, and was described by one writer as "the great Vatican door-opener" and "secret chamberlain of the papal household". In addition to his P2 connections, Ortolani is also a member of the inner council of the Knights of Malta and has military intelligence connections that date back to WWII.

THE OCTOPUS AND THE SPIDER

There are numerous other Masonic groups and secret societies in Europe which move in and out of focus at various times. Almost all of them are Catholic in nature. One of these is the Priory of Sion (Prieuré de Sion) - a secretive order that first came to public attention via the best-selling book, ‘Holy Blood, Holy Grail’, published in 1982.

10

The Priory is closely connected with the alleged treasure of Solomon which is said to have found its way to the small village of Rennes-le-Château in southwestern France, where it is said to have been buried by the Knights Templars, forerunners of the Knights of Malta. The Priory, whose headquarters were located at Annemasse, near Geneva on the Swiss border, are styled as the "guardians" of Solomon's treasure, but, most interestingly, they have numerous subterranean connections to fascists and those on the far right that date back to WWII. Meanwhile, it has to be noted in passing that Annemasse is said to have been the center for the anti-communist “Stay Behind” units of Operation Gladio. These “Stay Behind” units continued to operate on behalf of the Vatican after the war had ended. If this is not intriguing enough, another fact stretches coincidence to the point of bursting. In recent years, the Priory of Sion has moved its headquarters to Barcelona and now boasts a Spanish Grand Master. One could conclude this is to enable it to be physically closer to the historical heartland of Opus Dei, which was founded in Spain in 1928. If Otto Skorzeny was a leading force in running the SS Brotherhood escape routes - Der Spinne, the Spider - after the war, and SS General Karl Wolff was the lead negotiator with OSS Swiss Chief, Allen Dulles, then another Nazi, Walter Rauff, head of the Milan SD, was one of two liaisons with the Vatican involved in the establishment of the Nazi-smuggling system. Earlier in his career, Rauff had overseen the development of the Nazis' mobile gas vans, known as "Black Ravens", which gassed to death around 100,000 Jews, mostly women and children, by pumping exhaust fumes into the back of an hermetically sealed van. Another important link between the Vatican and SS escape routes was Friedrich Schwendt, who was also the man in charge of laundering forged SS banknotes. Before WWII, Schwendt was an international arms dealer who shipped weapons to China and Russia. He was also the investment manager of the family fortune of his first wife's aunt, Baroness Gemmingen-Guttenberg, of the vastly wealthy Argentina-based Bunge family, of the massive transnational firm Bunge Corporation that is also known as "the Octopus". This term “the Octopus” surfaces from time to time. This title is interesting, for it may connect to the so-called "Octopus" that ties in to murdered freelance journalist Danny Casolaro, who at the time of his death in 1991 was investigating a number of high-level illegalities including the theft by the Department of Justice of a "tracking" computer program known as "PROMIS". Casolaro was writing a book about what he had discovered. He originally titled it "Behold, A Pale Horse", but later modified it to "The Octopus". Danny Casolaro had no idea of the importance of what he had discovered, and it cost him his life in a faked suicide in a motel in Pennsylvania. In a draft page of the book, he described this group as an "international cabal whose freelance services covered parochial political intrigue, espionage, sophisticated weapon technologies that included biotoxins, drug trafficking, money laundering and murder-for-hire".

11

Danny Casolaro further stated that this cabal was "spawned thirty years ago in the shadow of the Cold War". After Casolaro's death, journalist Carol Marshall (a pen name) followed up his investigation and wrote an (as yet) unpublished manuscript, titled ‘The Last Circle’. If interested, the reader can read ‘The Last Circle’ under the pen name Carol Marshall. Danny Casolaro’s book ‘The Octopus’ was published posthumously in 2003 by Jim Keith. In this book, Marshall describes her investigation of Robert Booth Nichols - one of the central figures of the Octopus, whom she describes as being part of a secretive group known as "the Chosen Ones" and who wore, "skull and crossbones rings and shared a common interest, if you could call it that, in the old German SS occultism, its tribal and inner circle rites". During her continuing investigation into the Octopus, Marshall found that the SS occultism outlined above was connected to Lt. Col. Michael A. Aquino, a former US Green Beret who is a self-professed Satanist and who held a Top Secret security clearance for his work in military intelligence and on classified psychological warfare matters. Aquino officiated at SS black-magic ceremonies held at Wewelsburg, the castle once used by SS chief Heinrich Himmler to create an SS order of Teutonic knights based on the Knights Templars. The foregoing connections lend themselves to a larger picture of global, interlocking, right-wing fascist groupings that operate in the shadowland of deniable military and intelligence operations associated with profit during WWII and later, throughout the Cold War. In this respect, it is intriguing to note that the Priory of Sion, one of the foremost Catholic groups under discussion, uses as a symbol something that is variously described as an octopus or a spider on its documents. The Priory's association with the octopus could easily relate to the so-called Octopus described above, where organized crime works hand in glove with operatives from US intelligence and the military. If one decides, on the other hand, that the Priory symbol is a spider, there is the intriguing notion of the Vatican-run Nazi escape lines of Austrian Catholic Otto Skorzeny and his SS Brotherhood's Der Spinne (the Spider).

THE BUSINESS OF GOD

As mentioned earlier, Al Carone was a "made" man of the Genovese Mob in addition to his other associations. It is curious, therefore, to note that one of the leading lights of the Octopus, according to writer Carol Marshall, was ultra-right-wing oil tycoon Clint Murchison, owner of the Dallas Cowboys football team. Murchison's oil company, (Murchison Oil Lease Company) was 20 per cent owned by Gerardo Catena, the chief lieutenant of the Genovese crime family. Throughout the Second World War and thereafter there was, according to his book, ‘Trading With The Enemy’, author Charles Higham describes a "general agreement of certain major figures of American, British and German commerce that was established to afford them with the opportunity to continue their relations and associations after Pearl Harbor". Higham adds that he also learned that, "certain figures of the warring governments had arranged to assist

12

in this [activity]". Higham's subsequent research proved that this high cabal - which he dubbed "the Fraternity" - not only existed but benefited these figures handsomely throughout WWII. This led the author to ask: “What would have happened if millions of Americans and British people, struggling with coupons and lines at the gas stations, had learned that in 1942 Standard Oil of New Jersey managers shipped the enemy's fuel through neutral Switzerland and that the enemy was shipping Allied fuel?” Suppose the public had discovered that after Pearl Harbor the Chase Bank in Nazi-occupied Paris:

Was doing millions of dollars' worth of business with the enemy with the full knowledge of the head office in Manhattan?

Or that Ford trucks were being built for the German occupation troops in France with authorization from Dearborn, Michigan?

Or that Colonel Sosthenes Behn, the head of the international American telephone conglomerate ITT, flew from New York to Madrid and then to Berne during the war to help improve Hitler's communications systems and improve the robot bombs that devastated London?

Or that ITT built the Focke-Wulfs airplanes that dropped bombs on British and American troops?

Or that crucial ball-bearings were shipped to Nazi-associated customers in Latin America with the collusion of the Vice-Chairman of the US War Production Board, in partnership with Göring's cousin in Philadelphia, when American forces were desperately short of them?

Or that such arrangements were known about in Washington and either sanctioned or deliberately ignored?

Higham's "Fraternity" has similar characteristics to the so-called "Octopus", and also shows certain similarities to Colonel Oliver North's "Enterprise". All have engaged in the most dubious and illegal activities for profit and all operate hand in glove with organized crime. All lean so far to the right, ideologically speaking, that the word "fascist" can be used without reservation. Meanwhile, none of them cares very much for the woes of humanity and indeed, they appear committed to stomping on ethics and moral values wherever they meet them. The octopus - or "Oct Opus", as one European documentary film producer renders the spelling when referring to Opus Dei (which began life on 2 October 1928) - has eight arms that surround its mouth (ensuring a constant supply of food) and three hearts, and is therefore not prone to starving or dying.

13

But it can also be identified by these oddities. In this writer's view, Opus Dei, the group that is now in control of the Vatican, is undoubtedly one arm of this global criminal network. Or are the three hearts of the Octopus more vital to identify? Could they be analogous to the "Church, State and Mafia, the forces that prevail beneath the play of the shadows of the world" (as described by Nick Tosches in his book, ‘Power on Earth’, which tells the life story of murdered Mafia financier Michele Sindona)? There is yet another interesting twist to this accumulation of associations: Prince Bernhard of The Netherlands. The Prince was the founding chairman of the publicity-shy Western power elite known as the Bilderbergers. Under an almost total media blackout, this shadowy and secretive group meets over a weekend in May/June each year. Powerful and very influential figures from the world of banking, business, politics, the media, trades unions and academia are invited. For example, Dr. Henry Kissinger, now deceased David Rockefeller, and Italy's "king-maker", Gianni Agnelli are regularly included. The first meeting took place in May 1954. Strangely, this was the same year that Prince Bernhard became head of the Johanitter Orde in Nederland, one of four orders that make up the Chivalric Alliance of Orders of Saint John (Alliance de Chevalerie des Hospitaliers de Saint Jean de Jérusalem). The stated purpose of these four, known as "the Alliance" - which is composed of northern European nations includes Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden and Great Britain. The latter being an ancient order known as "the Most Venerable Order" - is "to reduce to silence the enemies of Christ." The headquarters of the Alliance are located in Switzerland. These are Protestant orders rather than Catholic, but it is of great significance that, on November 26, 1963, the Alliance was, "consolidated with the signing of a joint declaration between the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and the Most Venerable Order at St John's Gate, London, by the Grand Chancellor of the SMOM, the Prince of Resuttano, and Lord Wakehurst, Lord Prior of the Most Venerable Order". In other words, the Catholic and Protestant orders bound themselves to work together to "silence the enemies of Christ" - a clear reference to communism. Interestingly, it has been suggested that the Knights Templars were "infected" with the Johannite or Mandaean heresy that denounced Jesus as a "false prophet" and in his place recognized John the Baptist as the true Messiah. Meanwhile, two early Grand Masters of the Priory of Sion are said to have had Johannite tendencies:

Leonardo da Vinci Sir Isaac Newton

Notwithstanding that, the famous founder of the Knights Templars, Hughes de Payens, has been accused by the Vatican of being a Johannite.

Leaving aside this brief foray into esoteric history, it is as well to note that Prince Bernhard, in addition to his Bilderberg role and as head of the Dutch Johannite Order, was also an honorary member of Himmler's SS and worked in NW7, the global intelligence arm of I.G. Farben, which acted in the interests of the Nazi cause. The activities of NW7 in Latin America before, during and after World War II are deeply interwoven in this story. In facilitating and aligning itself with many of the foregoing activities, the Vatican aimed to help eradicate a communist ideology that despised Christianity. Opus Dei and a host of other Catholic-cum-fascist secret groups engaged in a litany of murder, money laundering, drug peddling, arms trafficking, concealment of WWII loot, embezzlement, manipulation of financial markets and many other consummate illegalities. The purpose of all these activities was, arguably, to allow the Vatican to remain the spiritual bulwark of the Christian West. But if such business is the business of a Church preaching of a God in Heaven, then Caesar on Earth had better watch out. As the events and facts show, the CIA, the Jesuit-controlled Vatican, and its subservient Orders reveal, they are all committed to the destruction of Russia, and all forms of communism. In the interim, they conduct secret operations that support their long term goal of creating a Global Government under the banner of the Papacy. Former CIA Director William Casey has been on record with a statement that speaks to the CIA’s agenda.

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -William Casey That creepy quote above has been widely attributed to Former CIA Director William Casey. Casey was the 13th CIA Director from 1981 until he left in January 1987. He died not long after of a brain tumor in May 1987. Dead men tell no tales, as they say. But did William Casey really say this quote? The quote itself has been passed around extensively on the Internet, and some people claim Casey never really said it because the only main source it traces back to is late political researcher and radio show host Mae Brussell. Brussell was the host of the radio show “Dialogue: Conspiracy”. She got her start when, as a radio show guest, she questioned the official story for the JFK assassination and the Warren Commission Hearings by suggesting that Lee Harvey Oswald wasn't the only person involved in Kennedy's murder. Perhaps the propagandized label of "conspiracy theorist" is the reason why people question the quote Brussell often repeated. "I am the source for this quote, which was indeed said by CIA Director William Casey at an early February 1981 meeting of the newly elected President Reagan with his new cabinet secretaries to report to him on what they had learned about their agencies in the first couple of weeks of the administration.

The meeting was in the Roosevelt Room in the West Wing of the White House, not far from the Cabinet Room. I was present at the meeting as Assistant to the chief domestic policy adviser to the President. Casey first told Reagan that he had been astonished to discover that over 80 percent of the 'intelligence' that the analysis side of the CIA produced was based on open public sources like newspapers and magazines. As he did to all the other secretaries of their departments and agencies, Reagan asked what he saw as his goal as director for the CIA, to which he replied with this quote, which I recorded in my notes of the meeting as he said it. Shortly thereafter I told Senior White House correspondent Sarah McClendon, who was a close friend and colleague, who in turn made it public." -Barbara Honegger Not only does Barbara Honegger claim he said it, but apparently he said it in response to what he saw as his goal as CIA Director! The year 1981 was an interesting one for Director Casey. He just so happened to be under investigation and fighting to keep his new job over various seedy dealings that came to light; among them were claims he approved a plan to overthrow Libya’s Moammar Qaddafi to instill a shadow government. The agency's plan, according to an article in the July 27, 1981 ‘Gettysburg Times’ involved toppling Qaddafi via what else? “Disinfo:” "Newsweek Magazine reported the covert operation was designed to overthrow Gaddafi through a 'disinformation' campaign to embarrass him, creation of a counter government to challenge his leadership and a paramilitary campaign." That same year, investigative journalist Jack Anderson published this piece in the September 22, 1981 Santa Cruz ‘Sentinel’ discussing the troubling CIA disinformation campaign being waged against Americans: Anderson points out the CIA's "triple assault on the public's right to know" included:

1. Trying to shut off channels of information to the electorate

2. Seeking criminal penalties against reporters whose stories might identify CIA operatives

3. Spreading "disinformation" to news agencies (which Anderson called most troubling) And who else does Anderson specifically call out in this “disinfo” campaign but new CIA Director William Casey: "Now along comes Bill Casey, the dodering CIA director, with the

16

argument that the government has the right to mislead the public by planting phony stories in the press."

Oh really? So the good director not only talked about his disinformation campaign but actually argued for the government's right to wage it against the American people?

The plan involved getting around the ban on CIA operations on domestic soil by planting “disinfo” stories in foreign news outlets that were routinely picked up by American mainstream media agencies. Anderson also points out the various rumors and false stories going around surrounding the goings on in Libya at the time… The bottom line here is, if anyone in our government was going to make the above disinformation statement and specifically in 1981, all available evidence points to no better person who would have likely said it than Casey. Finally on an aside, there seems to be this mission lately to memory hole quotes or muddy the water about who said what and change history. In this particular instance, someone who was there when William Casey said the line in question and claims to have literally heard the words come out of the man's mouth with her own ears as he said it is vouching that this quote is true. Then again, this is the same agency on record behind the government's MKUltra mind control program, an illegal project in which the CIA experimented on Americans for over two decades (that we know about) to manipulate mental states and brain function with everything from drugs to microwaves - the kind of stuff DARPA is openly working on today - all of which makes the piddly quote in question here seem like mere child's play by comparison.
