The CIA revealed as the Gestapo of the Vatican’s Fourth Reich


Revelation 18:8 ~ and she shall be utterly burned with fire
Most people naively associate the Reich with Nazi Germany. Only a handful of people know that the Reich is and always has been a realm of Rome called theHoly Roman Empire (HRE; German: Heiliges Römisches Reich (HRR), Latin:Imperium Romanum Sacrum (IRS), Italian: Sacro Romano Impero (SRI)). Because the Reich is a Roman Empire it is governed by the Vatican.
The First Holy Roman Empire (controlled by the Vatican) or First Reich existed from 962 to 1806. The First Reich’s empire was centered on the Kingdom of Germany, and included neighbouring territories, which at its peak included the Kingdom of Italy and the Kingdom of Burgundy. For much of the First Reich, the Empire consisted of hundreds of smaller sub-units, principalities, duchies, counties, Free Imperial Cities and other domains. Otto I was crowned King of Germany in 962 as the first Holy Roman Emperor (German: Römisch-Deutscher Kaiser) of the First Reich. Otto was installed by the Vatican to lead the First Reich. The last leader of the First Reich was Francis II, who abdicated and dissolved the Vatican control over the empire in 1806 during the Napoleonic Wars.
The Vatican regained some control of the Empire with the Second Reich, from 1871 to 1919. Germany was chosen again to lead the rebuilding of their empire. From 1914 to 1918 Germany tried to rebuilt the Holy Roman Empire for the Vatican (WWI) but the empire was again dissolved in 1919 with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919.
The Vatican did not give up its aspiration of a Holy Roman Empire centered on Germany. Even after being defeated and humiliated the Vatican again chose Germany to rebuild its Third Reich (Third Holy Roman Empire). From 1933 to 1945 (WWII) Adolf Hitler succeeded in building the largest ever Holy Roman Empire for the Vatican. It had taken and controlled all of mainland Europe for the Vatican. On June 6, 1944 (D-Day) the United States, Canada and Britain landed on the beaches of France and began liberating Europe from Vatican control. On May 7, 1945 Germany surrendered unconditionally to the Western Allies and on May 8, 1945 to the Soviet Union, formally dissolving the Vatican’s Third Reich.

The Vatican Crusades Iron Cross is once again emblazoned on German Tanks
60 years later and Germany is once again chosen to build a new Holy Roman Empire – the Fourth Reich. This time however, a former Nazi German Youth – Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger ( served the Third Reich for at least 4 years) is now also the leader of the Vatican. To build the Fourth Reich a German installed another German to rebuild the Roman Empire. The German controlled Vatican installed the biological daughter (by Artificial insemination) of the leader of the Third Reich (Adolf Hitler) to build the Fourth Reich. She has been tasked to first weaken Europe and its American liberators through debt (U.S. and Europe Debt Crisis) and wars against an imaginary enemy (War on Terror), then launch major biological and nuclear attacks against the United States and Russia. The attacks in the United States will be carried out by the Vatican’s modern day Gestapo – we all know them as the CIA. The attacks against Russia will be carried out by the Vatican army – we all know them as NATO.
The CIA and the Gestapo are one and the same.
Most Americans naively believe that the CIA works for the United States government, not the Vatican. At the end of WWII the U.S. government smuggled hundreds of top Nazi SS officers, Gestapo agents and scientists involved in experiments on the Jewish people in the concentration camps, into the United States. Operation Paperclip (Project Paperclip) saw hundreds of Nazi officials given asylum in the U.S. (Fort Bliss) from prosecution for their crimes against humanity. Scientists who committed atrocities by using human beings as lab rats formed the US biological weapons division of the US military. Nazi scientists who developed the first operational jet fighter, the Messerschmitt Me 262, and V-2 rocket formed the US ballistic missile weapons programs and later formed NASA. Nazi Gestapo (German Intelligence Agencies) agents were brought to the US and formed the FBI and the Central Intelligence Agency.
The Nazi German Gestapo had the authority to investigate cases of treason, espionage, sabotage and criminal attacks against the Nazi Party and Germany. The CIA has the same authority in the United States. The basic Gestapo law passed by the government in 1936 gave the Gestapo carte blanche to operate without judicial oversight. The CIA also operates without judicial oversight. The Gestapo was specifically exempted from responsibility to administrative courts, where citizens normally could sue the state to conform to laws. The CIA has the exact same exemptions. SS officer Werner Best, onetime head of legal affairs in the Gestapo, summed up this policy by saying, “As long as the police carries out the will of the leadership, it is acting legally.
President Truman knew what the CIA was. He personally opposed the creation of the CIA. He even referred to them as the “American Gestapo” “I CONSIDERED IT VERY important to this country to have a sound, well-organized intelligence system, both in the present and in the future. Properly developed, such a service would require new concepts as well as better trained and more competent personnel . . . it was imperative that we refrain from rushing into something that would produce harmful and unnecessary rivalries among the various intelligence agencies. I told Smith (Director of the Bureau of the Budget) that one thing was certain–this country wanted no Gestapo under any guise or for any reason.“ ~ President Harry S. Truman, Memoirs Vol I
The Origins of the Vatican’s Spiritual Entity called the SS
Under Pope Innocent VIII, the role of the Inquisition and Inquisitor changed to increase their legal and spiritual authority when despatching “heretics”. Around 1483 Tomás de Torquemada was named Inquisidor General of Aragón, Valencia and Catalonia.
His torturers and special militia were then blessed with being sworn into the highest sacred order of the Roman Cult– the SS or the Knights of the Sedes Sacrorum .
As a military order of the Roman Catholic Church, the Knights of the Sedes Sacrorum (SS) were bestowed by the legal orders of the Roman Pontiff on behalf of the Mother Church (Revelation 17:4 ~ “And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: 5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. “) to wage constant Holy Inquisition against all heretics, including assassinations, torture and counter-intelligence, to protect the name of the Holy Roman Catholic Church and directly represent the interests of the Holy See as its primary order of Holy Knights– the SS (Sedes Sacrorum or Holy See).
As a spiritual order of the Roman Catholic Church, the SS were bestowed with the extraordinary Roman Catholic grace of being forgiven for all their mortal sins (therefore can go to Heaven) that “unfortunately” must be done in order to observe its temporal orders. In others words, the troops of the Grand Inquisitor Tomás de Torquemada were the first religious military order to be granted “immunity” from Hell by the Pope on account of its acts of torture, terror and evil.
The last open satanic ritual sacrifices under the Holy Inquisition was in the early 19th Century. By the beginning of the 20th Century, there were less than a few hundred SS soldiers still assigned to the Holy Inquisition. However, upon the appointment of Fr Heinrich Himmler S.J. in 1929 to the NSDAP in Germany, a new Nazi SS (Knights of the Sedes Sacrorum) Army of several hundred thousand was created by 1939 to wage the single greatest Inquisition ever undertaken by the Roman Cult– with over 18 million innocent people burned alive in ovens in Russia and Poland.
The German SS were disbanded at the end of World War II, with the Roman Scroll of the SS being handed to the United States SS (Secret Service/Sedes Sacrorum) by 1945. The United States SS was officially created into a military/spiritual force after the assassination of President William McKinley in 1901. After the staged gun-fight outside Blair House in 1950, the United States SS have had absolute protection of the President of the United States, holding him a virtual prisoner of the State under the guise of official protection.

A Denarius for Your Thoughts

by Jim Davies

Exclusive to STR

March 23, 2009

Britain has turned out some pretty good mathematicians over the years, and one reason may be the complexity of its old currency system, which we were expected to understand by the age of six or so. Its structure was that of Pounds, Shillings and Pence; symbolized £, s and d and pronounced LSD (which may be why Brits of my generation did not all immediately tune in to Timothy Leary upon hearing those letters spoken).

There were 20 shillings in the pound and twelve pence in the shilling, hence 240 pence per pound. One was therefore introduced at that tender age to base-12 and base-20 number systems, as well as the more usual base-10. When in the 1960s IBM and others marched in to the island to market their punched-card tabulators and computers, designs had all to be modified, if any commercial tasks were to be performed; and it was quite a brain-strain sometimes to squeeze an extra machine cycle out of them because those mods used circuitry intended for something else.

Overlaid on that basic structure came the coinage. There were farthings (4 to a penny) and ha'pennies (2 to a penny) and threepenny bits (3d) and silver sixpences (6d) and florins (2s) and half-crowns (2s 6d or 2/6) - a hefty coin, that half-crown, and to further confuse the scene it was sometimes called the half-dollar, because at some point the exchange rate had been $4 to £1. I hope you're still with me, for it was not feasible to go shopping for candy or fireworks without mastering all this.

All that was rationalized in 1971; the old penny was retired (with its halves and quarters) and the new one was introduced @ 100 to the pound and was designated "p". So there are now 5p to the shilling (though that term is no longer used) and the florin became a 10p piece and the half crown, before phase-out, was worth 12.5p. And the kiddies can now be taught environmental care in place of base-12 math. Sic transit gloria mundi.

The old penny was of course used in these Colonies, and the word "penny" stuck and as we know is sometimes used today in place of the "cent" even though its value, if it existed, would not be the same. I think it's a handy name, because when spoken in the plural, it can't be confused with "sense." One more thing, though: did you notice, the old pennies were abbreviated "d" while the new ones are "p". Why?

Answer: when the British Empire was a-building, its builders modeled it in part on the Roman one--they were all classicists. And in ancient Rome, the everyday coin was the Denarius, with a d. It was made of silver, and its value plays an important part in history.

Roman government knew one thing well: how to conquer a neighboring country, subdue its residents and exploit their labor. One other policy worked nicely; after subjugation, the conquered residents were enabled to become Roman citizens; having failed to beat them, they were allowed to join them! This was quite clever, for over a generation or two it extinguished any lingering resentment. Jews, with their insistence upon being a special Chosen People, were an exception--but usually this worked fine. Former foreign enemies could join the civil and military service and even become Caesar, or Emperor. Evidently the parents of Saul of Tarsus were Roman citizens, because in Acts 22:27 Paul commanded respect by saying that he was "born" a Roman. So the whole Empire became staffed not by some kind of "Italian Mafia"--even if there had been enough to go around--but by former victims who had been absorbed.

This model worked fine, until Rome ran out of enemies.

Having encircled the Med and built state-of-the-art autostrada to enable chariots to rush from Carlisle to Cairo and from Madrid to Macedonia, there were no other resources within reach of plunder. To the West was the ocean, to the South the Sahara, to the East there were Persians and Indians but the logistics of doing battle so far away much favored the defenders, and to the North there was an array of fierce barbarians protected by the Alps . So by early A.D., the Empire was as big as it was going to get. Its now-substantial middle class had no more slaves or first-generation absorbees to do the grunt work. For a couple of hundred years at the end of the Republic, Italian Romans had been tax-free, like Kuwaitis are today; but those days were gone. How, then, could the administrators of the known world maintain their high standard of living without actually working for it? The problem was vexing indeed, and has some interesting echoes in today's America.

We free-marketeers know that the answer is obvious; if Rome's government had gone out of business after sending everyone to a Mises School, a Roman civilization would have survived and prospered to an almost unimaginable degree; but it didn't. All they knew was how to compel; voluntary exchanges were not in their vocabulary. These didn't merely behave like fascists; they invented the very word.

So instead, they had to find a way to decrease the living standards of their impressive middle class--to make it cost less. Reducing wages for border-defending soldiers and administrators being no way to encourage loyalty, they chose instead to disguise the plan by paying them in money whose real value was reduced. There were two main coins, the silver Denarius and the gold Aureus; the latter was used for payments to the government and the former was used in payments by the government. In the year 70 AD, Caesar Vespasian decreed that there were 25 Denarii per Aureus. Again, the thought that a market might value the exchange rate differently was not part of his thinking process, any more than it was when Congress set the silver/gold ratio at 16:1 in 1837.

So far, so good. Then, the Denarius had to be devalued so as to cut the cost of running the Empire, i.e., to impoverish people. It was done by debasing the silver with other metals, and periodically by decreeing that the exchange rate had changed. According to Wikipedia, there were 833 Denarii per Aureus in AD 301, then 4,350 in 370 and a whopping 4.6 million in 402; the Empire imploded in 410. As money wages became increasingly worthless, government employees just walked off the job (rather as they will in the runup to E-Day, in about 2027, though for quite different reasons) and evacuated the cities to go and grow their own food in the countryside; and so the machinery of government collapsed.

There are two key things to note from this story of Rome's decline and fall: (1) that inflation rate, over the 332 years, averages 3.72% a year, which happens to be almost exactly what the US government has done to the dollar since it established its quasi-central bank in 1913, and (2) in order to debauch a currency, government does not need to decree that it takes the form of paper and does not need to operate through a Federal Reserve Bank.

Both of those latter assertions are made of straw. Every government in the world inflates its currency and all of them except ours do it through a directly-operated central bank without the pretense of letting a "privately owned" banker take the heat; and the Roman example (many times emulated in later centuries) did the job without even resorting to paper (or papyrus.) Strident calls to "abolish the Fed" are therefore irrelevant; they should instead be "abolish the government."

The other essential thing to learn from the story of the Denarius is that for 95 years past, the US Government has already devalued its currency at almost precisely the same rate as that followed by the Romans. Government will of course never learn the lessons of history, and will therefore repeat them; therefore, it must go--before it ruins this civilization like the Roman governments ruined theirs.
