Il Papa: Nobody protested at this unprecedented gathering of criminal world leaders...

by Henk Ruyssenaars

FPF - April 8 - 2005 - Together with the fundamentalist Pope of the Catholics, civilization and morals were buried too. At least, and by last counting, four so called Kings and five 'Queens' were present at the funeral of the Pope and human dignity. Civilization was buried in the Roman grave in the company of at least 70 presidents - like Bush - and an array of war criminal* prime ministers like 'Tony the Traitor' Blair, Mussolini disciple Berlusconi (It) and the Dutch Pharisee and US bootlicker, the 'christian' right wing PM Balkenende (Nl).

Present too were more than 14 leaders of different religions and at least a couple of millions brainwashed faithful followers of God's salesman on Earth. At the service were thus all the criminal heads of governments whose hostile exchanges and atrocities have long dominated the headlines: the US and Israel, Syria, Zimbabwe and Britain, among others. But the Law of Silence* reigned among all ignorants and moral cowards united.

Apparently NONE of all those pompous and righteous - mostly catholic so called 'christians' - felt the need or urge to stand up and accuse any of the present war criminals of any or all of the atrocities committed in their name and for their profit? Nobody of the 2+ million sheeple raised his or her voice loud enough to be heard; a protest against all the crimes against humanity, daily perpetrated by the criminals seated there in the Vatican, the heart of the Catholic Church?

Christians, it is said ''are called to stimulate the growth of truth and righteousness - to increase the production of goodness in the world. The church, the body of Christ, is the salt - the dung heap, the compost pile, the manure that must find its way into and fertilize the barren soil of lonely, hopeless souls.''

I've seen the effect of the Pope's ban on contraceptives while working for ten years in Africa: the babies and others dying of AIDS and hunger. Among the row of lame cowardly ducks in Rome South Africa was represented by Deputy President Jacob Zuma. And NO, no way he blamed anybody for anything: the ravages in the own population were forgotten; he was there "in recognition of the role of the Holy Father in the pursuit of world peace, justice and moral renewal", his spokeswoman said.

It was a shameful fiasco for what we call 'civilisation', and contrary to what the spokeswoman said: they were burying peace, justice and every form of moral and human dignity by not protesting the genocides which are going on. Papal genocide by AIDS or the American/Israeli genocides in their global war of terror for profit.

When looking at this enormous and completely ridiculous failure of humanity in Rome, the heart of many a well thinking human being must cringe. It reminded of the German bishops and priesthood, all the time blessing soldiers, tanks, guns and even the horses that went to the East Front, but never blessing the 20 million killed Russians for instance. On the Nazi SS military belts it said: "Gott mit Uns", meaning God is on our side.

Bush, now using SS-B, says that 'the Lord has picked him' and he's on 'our side' too. And in Rome one could see the same happening again: the Huns with their guns were all there, their hands dripping with the blood of their victims, the bloody wars raging behind their Armani clad backs, covered by bodyguards and other hired killers hiding behind their Ray Bans. And all the world's god loving clergy and people practiced 'the Silence of the Lambs'.

What was shown in Rome again by many present, is what former San Francisco mayor Art Agnos identified as a social/cultural malady he described as 'compassion fatigue.' According to him this is an eroded state of the mind and heart, born of the chronic misery that is all around us. Especially one might say since the neocons putsched their way into the White Haus, their inhumane global actions creating a seemingly bottomless global pit of human misery, needs and trouble.

And in Rome the hypocritical clergy and mass murderers wined, dined, swined and departed. Protests have not been heard or have been silenced; drowned in the 'mainstream' of 'their' media.

Somebody who saw it all forty years ago already was Tom Lehrer, whom I already for decades look upon as an old friend. He was actually in the army, and has worked for the NSA after graduating from Harvard, but became famous for his songs. Clairvoyant as he is, he came in 1965 with a song foreboding the inhuman symbiosis between Power and the Vatican.

Another (Dutch) school friend of mine returned after two years of studying to become a priest, in Rome; he got out of the catholic church faster than quick, saying: "If you want to see the dunghill of Catholicism, go to Rome!" Tom Lehrer wrote his song The Vatican Rag* about this, as if confirming the fact:

Quote:

Do whatever steps you want if
You have cleared them with the Pontiff
Everybody say his own kyrie eleison
Doin' the Vatican Rag

"Get in line in that processional
Step into that small confessional
There, the guy who's got religion'll
Tell you if your sin's original

If it is, try playin' it safer
Drink the wine and chew the wafer
Two, four, six, eight
Time to transubstantiate"

'Transubstantiate' also in Rome apparently means mentally being transformed. Not only transforming dollars into Euros as many of them do.

But, what's officially the Vatican's and Italy's lame excuse for not taking all war criminals to jail and court? It is said there is a 1929 treaty between Italy and the Vatican City, under which Rome allows visiting dignitaries to use its territory to call on the Vatican which does not have an airport; this treaty preventing Italy from acting against criminals attending the funeral.

As if all international law is buried too!

By not protesting the war crimes with one word even, all those present, clergy or laymen, are 'guilty by association'.

Demonstrating that their morals and minds too belong on a dung heap.

Seeing worldwide that every bullet and every bomb breeds more terrorism ! - At present 'Persona non Grata' in Holland :-) because:

He who travels far will often see things

Far removed from what he believed was the Truth.

When he talks about it in the fields at home,

He is often accused of lying,

For the obdurate people will not believe

Inexperience, I believe,

Will give little credence to my song.
