Over 35 million soldiers and civilians died in World War I
If you keep an open mind, I will prove to you how world wars have been Holy Wars and the continuation of the bloody Crusades and propaganda to reestablish the world power of the Papacy--at the expense of human lives (since the lost of the Holy Land, Constantinople (Istanbul, Turkey) and loss of The Balkans to the Ottoman Empire).
Maximilian I (22 March 1459 – 12 January 1519), the son of Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor and Eleanor of Portugal, was King of the Romans (also known as King of the Germans) from 1486 and Holy Roman Emperor from 1508 until his death. He had ruled jointly with his father for the last ten years of his father's reign, from c. 1483. He expanded the influence of the House of Habsburg through war and his marriage in 1477 to Mary of Burgundy, the heiress to the Duchy of Burgundy.
The Habsburg Monarchy was a composite state composed of territories within and outside the Holy Roman Empire that were united only in the person of the monarch.
The First Italian War, sometimes referred to as the Italian War of 1494 or Charles VIII's Italian War, was the opening phase of the Italian Wars. The war pitted Charles VIII of France, who had initial Milanese aid, against the Holy Roman Empire, Spain, and an alliance of Italian powers led by Pope Alexander VI.
When Maximilian I announced on 24 November 1494 that the Diet of Worms would take place on 2 February 1495, he saw the Turkish War against the Ottoman Empire as his most important duty. In 1495, the French had conquered the Kingdom of Naples, and there was alarm that they would conquer the whole of Italy. In a renewed request to the feudal Nobles for help on 24 April, the king reported that papacy and imperial crown threatened to fall into the hands of Charles VIII, and that 4,000 men had had to be urgently dispatched to Italy.
THE THIRTY YEAR WAR began in 1618, when the Austrian Habsburgs tried to impose Roman Catholicism on their Protestant subjects in Bohemia. It pitted Protestant against Catholic, the Holy Roman Empire against France, the German princes and princelings against the emperor and each other, and France against the Habsburgs of Spain. The Swedes, the Danes, the Poles, the Russians, the Dutch and the Swiss were all dragged in to the Thirty Year War.
The Peace of Westphalia treaties (1648) involved the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand III, of the House of Habsburg. The Westphalia area of north-western Germany gave its name to the treaty that ended the Thirty Years War, one of the most destructive conflicts in the history of Europe. The Peace of Westphalia treaties stripped the power taken by Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III, and returned to sovereignty to the rulers of the Imperial States. This rectification allowed the rulers of the Imperial States to independently decide their religious worship. Protestants and Catholics were redefined as equal before the law, and Calvinism was given legal recognition. The Holy See was very displeased with the Treaty of Westphalia, with Pope Innocent X in Zelo Domus Dei reportedly calling it "null, void, invalid, iniquitous, unjust, damnable, reprobate, inane, empty of meaning and effect for all time."
THE U.S. AND HOLY SEE DID NOT HAVE DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS FROM 1870 TO 1984
Prior to WWI, Pope Pius IX and the Papacy supported the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War, and tried to divide and conquer America.[1] The United States Union helped Italian revolutionaries Giuseppe Garibaldi and Giuseppe Mazzini against the Papacy. The power of the Pope and the Papal States were lost in 1870 with the overthrow of the Vatican and Pope Pius IX. The U.S. relations with the Holy See lapsed after the American Civil War (until 1984 under U.S. President Ronald Wilson Reagan).
CARDINAL HENRY EDWARD MANNING (1808–1892) was ordained as an Anglican clergyman. He then converted to Catholicism and became Archbishop of Westminster in 1865, and became a leader of the Oxford Movement.
The OXFORD MOVEMENT postulated the Branch Theory, which states that Anglicanism along with Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism form three "branches" of Catholicism. As Archbishop of Westminster England, Cardinal Manning became the de facto spokesman of the Catholic Church in England and Wales.
Cardinal Manning was born at Totteridge, England, the third son of William Manning, a West India merchant and slave trader, who served as a director and (1812–1813) as a governor of the BANK OF ENGLAND and also sat in Parliament for 30 years, representing in the Tory interest Plympton Earle, Lymington, Evesham and Penryn consecutively. Cardinal Henry Edward Manning, in 1874, spoke of the only way to restore the Pope's Temporal Power;
"There is only one solution of the difficulty---a solution, I fear, impending---and that is the terrible scourge of Continental war, a war which will exceed the horrors of any of the wars of the First Empire. And it is my firm conviction that in spite of all obstacles the Vicar of Jesus Christ will be put again in his own rightful place. But that day will not be until his adversaries shall have crushed each other with mutual destruction."
--- Tablet, January 24th, 1874.
THE BALKANS AND PRELUDE TO WORLD WAR I:
The Bosnian Crisis of 1908–09, erupted when Austria-Hungary announced the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Balkan Wars were two wars of 1912–13 that were fought over the last European territories of the Ottoman Empire. In 1912 Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, and Montenegro forced Turkey to give up Albania and Macedonia, leaving the area around Constantinople (Istanbul) as the only Ottoman territory in Europe. The following year Bulgaria disputed with Serbia, Greece, and Romania for possession of Macedonia, which was partitioned between Greece and Serbia. The war was a prelude to the First World War.
A CONCORDAT IS A TREATY BETWEEN THE HOLY SEE AND GOVERNMENTS
The June 24th 1914 Concordat between the Holy See and Serbia was signed at the Vatican. This united the State of Serbia with the Church of Rome (Holy See), and DESPOTICALLY mandated that the Roman Catholic religion and schools for the Catholic education and indoctrination of children would be freely practiced in Serbia—and established the Archbishop of Belgrade and the Bishop of Uskub (modern-day Skopje, Macedonia). Articles 17 and 18 of the Concordat signed between Serbia and the Holy See established the right of the Roman Catholic Church to acquire legally, possess, and administer freely real estate property in Serbia exempt from taxes.
June 28th 1914, Austria-Hungary Archduke Francis Ferdinand of the Habsburg monarchy, was assassinated in Sarajevo, Bosnia—in protest to the Concordat of Serbia with the Holy See. The Serbian people resented the Concordat between the Habsburg Monarchy and the Holy See.
CARDINAL MANNING’S PLAN TO CONQUER AND DIVIDE WORKED
July 28th 1914, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia; August 1st, in support of Austria-Hungary and the Holy See, Germany declared war on Russia; August 3rd 1914, Germany then declared war on France; August 4th 1914, Germany declared war on Belgium; August 4th 1914, Britain declared war on Germany; August 6th 1914, Austria declared war on Russia; August 10th 1914, France declared war on Austria; August 13th 1914, Great Britain declared war on Austria.
Count Leopold Berchtold (1863-1942) was an Austro-Hungarian politician, diplomat and statesman who served as Imperial Foreign Minister at the outbreak of WWI. Once the war had started, Count Berchtold focused his efforts on the question of Italy’s participation in the war that would lead to his downfall. The main problem was Italy’s demands for territorial compensation from Austria-Hungary in return for remaining in the Triple Alliance. When Rome presented the Ballhausplatz with demands for control over territories in southern Austria-Hungary, Berchtold demurred and refused to offer any Habsburg concessions, especially not in the Trentino. However, Italian Foreign Minister Baron Sonnino succeeded in obtaining vague promises of compensations in South Tyrol from Germany and by the end of 1914.
The Kingdom of Italy, like some of the other European powers, wanted to set up colonies and build up an overseas empire. With this aim in mind, Italy joined the German-Austrian Alliance to form the Triple Alliance (as opposed to the Triple Entente, which consisted of an alliance between Britain, France and Russia), partly in anger at the French seizure of Tunisia in 1881. Because of the Tunisian crisis, the newly formed Republic of Italy found no other big potential ally than its historical enemy, Austria–Hungary, a past enemy of Italian unification.
The Kingdom of Italy initially consisted of the islands of Corsica and Sardinia, sovereignty over both of which was claimed by the Papacy, which granted them as a fief, the "kingdom of Sardinia and Corsica." Victor Emanuel II was king of Sardinia from 1849 until, on 17 March 1861, when he assumed the title "King of Italy" to become the first king of a united Italy since the 6th century. Victor Emanuel supported Giuseppe Garibaldi's Expedition of Thousand (1860–1861), which resulted in the rapid fall of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies in southern Italy. However, the King halted Garibaldi when he appeared ready to attack Rome, still under the Papal States, as it was under French protection. In 1860, through local plebiscites, Tuscany, Modena, Parma and Romagna decided to side with Sardinia-Piedmont. Victor Emanuel then marched victoriously in the Marche and Umbria after the victorious battle of Castelfidardo (1860) over the Papal forces. In 1861, as the Papal States were crumbling, Pope Pius IX excommunicated Italy's King Victor Emmanuel II, and announced that no Catholic could recognize his government.
Amadeo I (30 May 1845 – 18 January 1890) was the only King of Spain from the House of Savoy. He was the second son of King Victor Emanuele II of Italy, reigned briefly as King of Spain from 1870 to 1873. He was elected by the Cortes as Spain's monarch in 1870, following the deposition of Isabella II, and sworn in the following year. Amadeo's reign was fraught with growing republicanism, Carlist rebellions in the north, and the Cuban independence movement. He abdicated and returned to Italy in 1873, and the First Spanish Republic was declared as a result. Victor Emmanuel II held his title until his death in 1878---eight years after the loss of the Papal States, and overthrow of the Vatican and Pope Pius IX. Umberto I or Humbert I (Humbert Ranier Charles Emmanuel John Mary Ferdinand Eugene of Savoy; born 14 March 1844), was the King of Italy from 9 January 1878 until his death on 29 July 1900.
BRITISH PROPAGANDA TO PROVOKE THE UNITED STATES INTO WORLD WAR I
Charles Frederick Gurney Masterman, PC (1873 –1927) was a British Liberal Party politician and journalist. Charles Masterman headed the initial establishment of a British government propaganda agency during WWI. The Bureau began its propaganda campaign on 2 September 1914 when Masterman invited 25 leading British authors to Wellington House to discuss ways of best promoting Britain's interests during the war.[2][3] Wellington House’s main propaganda work focused on drawing the United States into WWI in Europe.
Charles F. Gurney Masterman was a member of the Privy Council, a formal body of advisers to the Sovereign in the United Kingdom—the Head of the Church of England and its colony churches worldwide. His Great-grandfather was William Brodie Gurney; his brother was Howard Masterman, who became the first Anglican Bishop of Plymouth within the CHURCH OF ENGLAND.
Gurney's Bank was a well-respected family-run bank founded by members of the Gurney family and headquartered in Norwich, England. In 1896, Gurney's Bank merged with Backhouse's Bank of Darlington and Barclays Bank of London and several other provincial banks, controlled by Quaker families, to form what is now Barclays Bank.
All world wars have been Holy Wars and the continuation of the bloody Crusades to reestablish the power of the Papacy—and maintain the ACT OF SUPREMACY and Church of England daughter religion of the Papacy—using Jesuit’ Counter-Reformation “Just War Theory” for world dominance and control of the masses!
Born Eugenio Maria Giuseppe Giovanni Pacelli (March 2 1876 – 9 October 1958), later became Pope Pius XII, head of the Roman Catholic Church. In 1911, Pacelli, represented the Holy See at the coronation of King George V. On 24 June 1914, just four days before Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo, Pacelli, together with Cardinal Merry del Val, represented the Vatican when the Serbian Concordat was signed. At this time Serbia, encouraged by Russia, was challenging Austria-Hungary's sphere of influence throughout The Balkans. While propaganda sympathetic to Germany did also exist during WWI, it did not carry much weight with the American public.
At the start of the WWI, Italy was on the side of Germany. On April 26th 1915, Italy flip-flopped and accepted the British invitation to join the Allies in World War I, because the western allies promised territorial compensation.
In 1920, Archbishop Pacelli was appointed nuncio (permanent diplomatic representative of the Holy See to a state or international organization) to Germany, and after completion of a concordat with Bavaria the nunciature was moved to Berlin in 1925.
The Allies did reward the Vatican with the Lateran Treaty signed on February 11, 1929 between Italy and the Holy See---establishing Vatican City and Rome as a Sovereignty under international law---and returned certain lands and properties to the Papacy. The Italian state agreed to pay 750,000,000 lire immediately to the Holy See plus consolidated bearer bonds with a nominal value of 1,000,000,000 lire as reparations.
The U.S. was neutral for 3 years to WWI propaganda and provocations. On April 6, 1917, the U.S. entered WWI.
THE HOLY SEE AND POPE'S FLIP-FLOP ON AUSTRIA-HUNGARY, GERMANY AND OTHERS
The Empire of Austria and the Apostolic Kingdom of Hungary ( "a state union of Kingdom of Hungary and Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia") that existed from 1867 to 1918, collapsed as a result of the Holy See flip-flopping on Austria-Hungary during WWI.
The members of the Triple Entente were the French Republic, the British Empire and the Russian Empire (Italy and the Holy See ended its alliance with the Central Powers and entered the war on the side of the Entente in 1915).
Clearly Great Britain and the United States fit the prophecy of Daniel 7.
The three ribs in the Russian bear's mouth have survived in the present form of the Medo-Persia (Syria and Iran) empire---having alliances with the Byzantine Empire---the part of the Greek empire in southeastern Europe and Asia Minor formed from the eastern part of the Roman Empire.
The leopard is believed to represent Germany and its four (4) wings of a Fowl---the France fighting cock not plucked off.
Four wings of the leopard...
the French departments in Italy
the French departments in Italy
The Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation, lasted from the coronation of Otto I as a Holy Roman Emperor in 962 to 1806, when it was dissolved during the Napoleonic Wars, a series of campaigns (1800–15) of French armies under Napoleon against Austria, Russia, Great Britain, Portugal, Prussia, and other European powers. They ended with Napoleon's defeat at the Battle of Waterloo.
Trasimène is the name of a département of the First French Empire in present Italy. It was named after Lake Trasimeno. Its capital was Spoleto. It was divided into the following arrondissements (a subdivision of a department in France, for purposes of local government administration): Spoleto, Foligno, Peruglia and Todi.
Trasimène was disbanded after the defeat of Napoleon in 1814. Its territory is presently divided over the Italian provinces: Perugia, Terni and Viterbo---and Rome makes up the fourth wing of the fowl. Rome is the name of a department of the First French Empire in present-day Italy.
The Empire of Austria and the Apostolic Kingdom of Hungary ( "a state union of Kingdom of Hungary and Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia") that existed from 1867 to 1918, collapsed as a result of the Holy See flip-flopping on Austria-Hungary during WWI.
The peace treaties of 1919-1920 established an Allied Power and Holy See supported Yugoslav state with the name "The Kingdom of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs." The goal of the original Concordat signed between the Holy See and the Habsburg Monarchy that sparked WWI, established a Roman Catholic control of the Yugoslav state.
Following WWI the British held control of most Ottoman Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) and the southern part of the Ottoman Syria (Palestine and Transjordan), while the French controlled the rest of Ottoman Syria (modern Syria, Lebanon, Alexandretta) and other portions of southeastern Turkey. Control of these territories became formalized by the League of Nations, (the precursor to the United Nations) and became known as the British Mandate for Palestine and French Mandate respectively.
NOTE: Byzantium remained the capital of the Byzantine Empire until 1453 AD, when it was conquered by the Muslims and became the capital of the Ottoman Empire. It was also agreed that the Muslims could build mosques in Catholic countries without interference as long as Roman Catholicism could flourish in Arab countries.
WHY WOULD THE ALLIED POWERS COLLABORATE WITH WAR CRIMINALS THAT STOLE WEALTH AND CAUSED GENOCIDE?
The Armenian Genocide took place during and after World War I and was implemented in two phases: the wholesale killing of the able-bodied male population through massacre and forced labor, and the deportation of women, children, the elderly and infirm on death marches to the Syrian Desert. The total number of people killed as a result has been estimated at between 1 and 1.5 million. Other indigenous and Evangelical Christian ethnic groups such as the Assyrians, the Greeks and other minority groups were similarly targeted for extermination by the Ottoman government, and their treatment is considered by many historians to be part of the same genocidal policy.[4]
Aside from the deaths, Armenians lost their wealth and property without compensation. Businesses and farms were lost, and all schools, churches, hospitals, orphanages, monasteries, and graveyards became Turkish state property. In January 1916, the Ottoman Minister of Commerce and Agriculture issued a decree ordering all financial institutions operating within the empire's borders to turn over Armenian assets to the government. It is recorded that as much as 6 million Turkish gold pounds were seized along with real property, cash, bank deposits, and jewelry. The assets were then funneled to European banks, including Deutsche and Dresdner banks.[5]
Istanbul, Turkey, formerly known as Constantinople under Byzantine rule, became the Ottoman Empire's fourth and final capital. The Occupation of Constantinople (Turkish: İstanbul; November 13, 1918 – September 23, 1923), the occupation of the capital of the Ottoman Empire by British, French and Italian forces, took place in accordance with the Armistice of Mudros, which ended Ottoman participation in the First World War.
1918 saw the first time Constantinople had changed hands since the Ottoman Turks took control of the city from the Roman Catholic Church and Knights of St. John of Jerusalem, Rhodes and Malta (JESUITS) in 1453.
Turkish Courts-Martial of 1919–20, were courts-martial of the Ottoman Empire after the armistice of Mudros during the aftermath of World War I, at which the leadership of the Committee of Union and Progress and selected former officials were court-martialed with/including the charges of subversion of the constitution, wartime profiteering, and the massacres of both Armenians and Greeks. Most of the Turkish courts-martial were dismissed and the serious ones were relocated to the "International Court-Martial in Malta" (a European country allied with the Holy See and Knights of Malta, 50 miles south of Sicily, Italy) rather than being held in a Turkish court whose "findings cannot be held of any account at all." The courts-martial were labelled "Turkish" because of their selective accusation of only the Turkish subjects of the Ottoman Empire. All the Turkish officials held in a prison in Malta were acquitted by a British court and released.
The Government of the Grand National Assembly (GNA), commonly known as the Ankara Government, was the name given to the provisional and revolutionary Turkish government based in Ankara during the Turkish War of Independence (1919–1923) and during the final years of the Ottoman Empire. At the time the Ankara Government was proclaimed, there existed another Turkish government in the Allied-occupied Constantinople, namely the Imperial Ottoman government, often known as the "Istanbul Government" (as opposed to the nationalist Ankara Government). Once the Grand National Assembly was established, on 23 April 1920, without the rejection of its legitimacy at first by the Ottoman Sultanate, the new parliament in Ankara formed its own government within the Assembly.
On November 1, 1922, the Ottoman Sultanate was abolished by the Turkish Grand National Assembly, which was accused of collaborating with the Allies during the occupation of Turkey, and Sultan Mehmed VI departed the country. This allowed the Turkish national movement government in Ankara to become the sole governing entity in the nation, founding the Republic of Turkey the next year in 1923.
The Treaty of Lausanne was a peace treaty signed in Lausanne, Switzerland on 24 July 1923. It officially ended the state of war that had existed between Turkey and the allied British Empire, French Republic, Kingdom of Italy, Empire of Japan, Kingdom of Greece, Kingdom of Romania, and Serb-Croat-Slovene State since the onset of World War I. It was the result of a second attempt at peace after the failed Treaty of Sèvres, which was signed by all previous parties but later rejected by the Turkish national movement who fought against the previous terms and significant loss of territory. The Treaty of Lausanne ended the conflict and defined the borders of the modern Turkish state except for its border with Iraq.
The Lausanne Treaty stipulated a population exchange between Greece and Turkey, whereby 1.1 million Greeks left Turkey for Greece in exchange for 380,000 Muslims transferred from Greece to Turkey. In the treaty, Turkey gave up all claims to the remainder of the Ottoman Empire, and in return the Allies recognized The New Turkish Sovereignty.
The three main adverse effects of WWI were the rise of Bolshevism in Russia, rise of Fascism in Italy and the rise of Nazism in Germany.
During WWI, the Holy See flip-flopped on the former Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation (Germany). The name "Constantinople" is still used by members of the Eastern Orthodox Church in the title of one of their most important religious leaders, the Orthodox patriarch, referred to as "His Most Divine All-Holiness the Archbishop of Constantinople New Rome and Ecumenical Patriarch."
NOTE: The Archbishop of CONSTANTINOPLE and NEW ROME and Ecumenical Patriarch is now "first among equals" in the Eastern Orthodox Communion, since 2 November 1991. This Orthodox title is consistent with the original agenda of Cardinal Henry Edward Manning and the OXFORD MOVEMENT'S three "Branch Theology" of; Roman Catholic, Anglican (Church of England), and Orthodox Catholicism.
HOW WWI AND WWII PERSECUTED THE JEWISH PEOPLE
The Balfour Declaration was a letter from the United Kingdom's Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour to Baron Rothschild (Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild of the Rothschild banking dynasty of England), a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland.
The 1st Earl of Balfour James Arthur Balfour (1848–1930), was a British statesman and Prime Minister 1902–05. In 1917, as foreign secretary, he issued the Balfour Declaration that favored a Jewish national home in Palestine. The original allotment of land set as a homeland for the Jewish people escaping persecution in Europe was 45,560 square miles, under the The British Balfour Declaration and League of Nations (the precursor to the United Nations), an area slightly smaller than the state of Pennsylvania.
The Hashemite Dynasty claim to be descendants of the Islamic prophet Muhammad
The Hashemite Monarchy, is an Arab dynasty whose original strength stemmed from the network of tribal alliances and blood loyalties in the Hejaz region of Arabia, along the Red Sea. Today, the Hashemite Monarchy have spread in many places where Muslims have ruled, namely Iran, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, Qatar, Palestine, Syria, Egypt, Somalia, Yemen, Djibouti, United Arab Emirates, Ethiopia, Northern Sudan, and Turkey.
In 1921, to appease the Arabs, King Abdullah I of Saudi Arabia was given Transjordan, which was 77 percent of the territory (35,125 square miles) that had been set aside as a homeland for the Jewish people.
Today, the properties of the Holy See (Vatican) are regulated by the 1929 Lateran Treaty that was signed with the Kingdom of Italy. In 1984, a revised Concordat was signed defining the relations between the U.S. government and the Vatican within Italy.[6]
The Reich Concordat was a treaty between the Vatican and the Nazi Third Reich. It was signed on 20 July 1933 by Secretary of State Eugenio Pacelli (who later became Pope Pius XII) and Vice Chancellor Franz von Papen on behalf of Pope Pius XI and President Paul von Hindenburg respectively. The treaty guaranteed the rights of the Roman Catholic Church in Nazi Germany. The Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation re-birthed with the Vatican's treaty with the Nazi Third Reich (1933-1945).
THE APOSTOLIC NUNCIATURE TO GERMANY is a Roman Catholic Church diplomatic post of the Holy See in Germany, whose representative is called the Apostolic Nuncio to Germany with the rank of an ambassador. The office of the nunciature has been located in Berlin since 1925, in personal union with the new Apostolic Nuncio to Prussia until 1934. Between 1920 and 1925 the nunciature was held in personal union by the Apostolic Nuncio to Bavaria, seated in Munich. With the unconditional surrender of Germany in 1945 the diplomatic ties were interrupted and reestablished for West Germany only in 1951, then in Bonn. In 2001 the nunciature moved again to Berlin. The three Popes, once serving as nuncios (Roman Catholic ambassadors) in what is today's Germany, were Alexander VII, Leo XII and Pius XII.
***Pope Pius XII, born Eugenio Maria Giuseppe Giovanni Pacelli, was Pope from 2 March 1939 to his death in 1958.[7
Fascist ideology consistently invokes the primacy of the state. Leaders such as Benito Mussolini in Italy and Adolf Hitler in Germany embodied the state and claimed indisputable power. Fascism sought to accommodate Italian conservatives by making major alterations to its political agenda and adopted policies in support of the Roman Catholic Church and the monarchy as institutions in Italy.

The House of Savoy (Italian: Casa Savoia) is one of the oldest royal families in the world, being founded in year 1003 in the historical Savoy region. Through gradual expansion, it grew from ruling a small county in that region to eventually rule—through its branch Savoy-Carignano—the Kingdom of Italy from 1861 until the end of World War II. The House of Savoy ruled unified Italy for 85 years with Victor Emmanuel II, Umberto I, Victor Emmanuel III, and Umberto II as monarchs. Benito Mussolini enjoyed the support of the reigning monarch, imposed fascism after the 28 October 1922 March on Rome, eventually engaging Italy in World War II alongside Nazi Germany. After the Lateran Accords between Pope Pius XI and Mussolini in 1929, each saw himself as heading a "totalitarian" organization, a term they both embraced.
Victor Emmanuel III (November 1869 – 28 December 1947) of the House of Savoy was King of Italy (29 July 1900 – 9 May 1946), for 46 years, which began after the assassination of his father Umberto I. In addition, he claimed the thrones of Ethiopia and Albania as Emperor of Ethiopia (1936–41) and King of the Albanians (1939–43), which were unrecognized by the Allied powers and new government of Turkey.
Victor Emmanuel abdicated his throne in 1946 to his son Umberto II, hoping to strengthen the support for the monarchy against an ultimately successful referendum to abolish it by the WWII Allies and Holy See. He then went in exile to Alexandria, Egypt, where he died and was buried the following year. In 1946, Italy became a republic.
The Vatican and its Jesuit/Knights of Malta diplomatic arm in the UNITED NATIONS under UN resolutions 181 and 194, want to make Jerusalem an international city controlled by an International Regime such as the Vatican (*** PLEASE READ 1 Thessalonians 5:3-4 and 2 Thessalonians 2).
Corpus Separatum (Latin for "separated body") is a term used to describe the Jerusalem area in the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine (State of Israel). According to the plan the city would be placed under International Regime (Not belonging to Israel, Muslims or Arab Palestinians), conferring it a "Special Status" (2 Thessalonians 2). The Holy See expressed support for the status of Corpus Separatum.
On November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly decided to partition the remaining 23 percent (28,166 square miles) of the Mandated Jewish homeland into three parcels...In 1948, the Vatican created the office of Apostolic Delegate to Jerusalem and Palestine, which had jurisdiction in British Mandate Palestine, Transjordan (now Jordan) and Cyprus. Two years after WWII ended, the borders of the Jewish national homeland shrunk even further. Israel received the barren, largely uninhabitable Negev (southern Israel, between Beersheba and the Gulf of Aqaba, on the Egyptian border), and two other parcels of land, for a total 5,500 square miles. The future State of Israel had shrunk to a sliver of territory---only 11 percent of the land the League of Nations had mandated it to have. The rest all went to the Arabs.
Pope Pius XII was among the first to make such a proposal in support of Corpus Separatum in the 1949 encyclical Redemptoris Nostri Cruciatus. This idea was later re-proposed during the papacies of John XXIII, Paul VI and John Paul II.
King Abdullah II of Jordan (Abdullah II ibn al-Hussein; born 30 January 1962) is the reigning king of the Kingdom of Jordan. King Abdullah, whose mother is Princess Muna al-Hussein, is a member of the Hashemite family. King Abdullah II attended St Edmund's School, Hindhead, Surrey in England, before moving on to Eaglebrook School and Deerfield Academy in Deerfield, Massachusetts. Abdullah II ibn al-Hussein (now King Abdullah II of Jordan) joined the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 1980, was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant, and served as a troop commander in the 13th/18th Royal Hussars.
Jordan's King Abdullah II and Prince Ghazi bin Muhammad bin Talal, the king's adviser
for religious and cultural affairs, leave after a private audience with Pope Francis.
In 1987, he attended the JESUIT Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. Abdullah would later serve in the Jordanian forces and became Major General in May 1998. He ascended the throne on 7 February 1999 upon the death of his father King Hussein of Jordan.
The February 15, 2000, bilateral agreement signed between the Vatican and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), WWI and WWII proves that the Holy See will flip-flop on God's Holy people whenever it is politically and economically convenient.
The United Nations and Vatican sponsored Tony Blair Faith Foundation and UN Faith and Globalization Initiative—was launched at the Time Warner building in NYC in 2008.

Revelation 13:1-10 (NLT)
The Beast out of the Sea
13 Then I saw a beast rising up out of the sea. It had seven heads and ten horns, with ten crowns on its horns. And written on each head were names that blasphemed God. 2 This beast looked like a leopard, but it had the feet of a bear and the mouth of a lion! And the dragon gave the beast his own power and throne and great authority.
3 I saw that one of the heads of the beast seemed wounded beyond recovery—but the fatal wound was healed! The whole world marveled at this miracle and gave allegiance to the beast. 4 They worshiped the dragon for giving the beast such power, and they also worshiped the beast. “Who is as great as the beast?” they exclaimed. “Who is able to fight against him?”
Do Not believe the Hype that many propagandists are brewing that; World War I had nothing to do with first the Habsburg Monarchy, and then later, France, Great Britain and the Church of England restoring the Temporal power of its mother religion—the Roman Catholic Church and Papacy, as the New Holy Roman Empire and Fourth Reich of the British, German-Franco alliance with countries around the world.
THE ON-GOING MISSION
2 Corinthians 11:12-15 (ESV)
12 "And what I am doing I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do. 13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds."
