האפיפיור נפטר. אז מה? / The Pope is Dead. Whatever.

ערב שבת קודש פר׳ שמיני תשפ״ה
English follows the Hebrew.
עשר אגורות (2¢):
האפיפיור מת.

ידעתי שיש סיבה לעיתוי יציאת הסרט "עד שיצא עשן לבן", מותחן שעיקרו הוא תהליך של הוותיקן לבחור את האפיפיור החדש .

סתם מקריות? או שהנהלת האולפן ציפה שהאפיפיור בן ה-88 ובעל בריאות לקוי ימות במוקדם ולא במאוחר. לפעמים הקתולים היו חלוקים בדעותיו של האפיפיור הזה. אני נותן לקתולים השמרנים והשמאלנים לדון על כך ביניהם.

כאן אני כותב על מנהיג הכנסייה הקתולית, כפי שהוא מתייחס לישראל.

אבל קודם כל...

ברוך הטוב והמטיב. 

מי שמבין יבין.

רבים ברשתות החברתיות מתנגדים לברכה הזו ולביטויים דומים. אפילו אלה שמגנים את דעותיו נגד ישראל של האפיפיור הזה טוענים שאסור לנו לחגוג את נפילת אויבינו.

קשה להאמין שעדיין מדברים על דעת השטות הזו. אני מניח שזה על ידי בוגרי שיעורים של הרפורמים, הרקונסטרוקציוניסטים או כל תנועה אחרת שלא קיבלו את התזכיר או שקיבלו גרסה מתוקנת ומעוותת שלו.

אז לטובתם, אני פשוט משאיר את זה כאן:
תלמוד בבלי, מגליה טז,א
בתר דשקלינהו למזייה לבשינהו למאניה אמר ליה סק ורכב אמר ליה לא יכילנא דכחישא חילאי מימי תעניתא גחין וסליק כי סליק בעט ביה אמר ליה לא כתיב לכו ״בנפל אויבך אל תשמח״? (משלי כד) אמר ליה הני מילי בישראל אבל בדידכו כתיב ״ואתה על במותימו תדרוך״ (דברים לג) 
ממשיכים הלאה...
רק 137 הקרדינלים האלה מתחת לגיל 80 יכולים להשתתף בכנס בחירת האפיפיור, כדי לבחור את האפיפיור החדש. נכון להיום ישנם 252 קרדינלים, מתוכם 137 קרדינלים מותורים להצביע. (סקיי ניוז)
עם זאת...
לאחר ועידת הקרדינלים האחרונה בדצמבר 2024, האפיפיור פרנציסקוס [השמאלני] יצר 21 קרדינלים חדשים, בעוד ש-23 נוצרו על ידי האפיפיור [שמרני מאוד] בנדיקטוס ה-16 וחמישה על ידי האפיפיור [השמרני] יוחנן פאולוס השני.

האפיפיור פרנציסקוס יצר קרדינלים מ-72 מדינות שונות, ול-24 מאותן מדינות מעולם לא היה קרדינל לפני כן. (סקיי ניוז) עם התוספות החדשות, האפיפיור יצור 110 מתוך 140 הקרדינלים מתחת לגיל 80 שהורשו לבחור את יורשו. (דויטש וולה)
האם פרנסיס מינה רק את אלה שחולקים את חזונו עבור הכנסייה הקתולית? אם כן, לכל אחד מהדומה לו יהיה יתרון עצום.

הנה רשימה של כמה מהמועמדים המוזכרים בחדשות:
הקרדינל פייטרו פארולין, איטלקי, דיפלומט של הוותיקן, בן 70. המעודף של מהמרים, פארולין נתפס כמועמד לפשרה בין פרוגרסיבים לשמרנים. הוא היה דיפלומט של הכנסייה במשך רוב חייו וכיהן כמזכיר המדינה של האפיפיור פרנציסקוס מאז 2013, השנה שבה נבחר פרנציסקוס. (רויטרס)
לא ברור לי איך הם יכולים להגיד שהוא מועמד לפשרה. לפי סקיי ניוז הוא כבעל ברית חשוב של האפיפיור שנפטר.
הקרדינל ז'אן-מארק אוולין, הארכיבישוף של מרסיי, צרפתי, בן 66. אוולין ידוע באופי העממי והנוח שלו, בנכונותו לפצח בדיחות ובהשקפה הדומה לפרנציסקוס, במיוחד בנושאי הגירה ויחסים עם העולם המוסלמי. הוא גם יהיה האפיפיור הצעיר ביותר מאז יוחנן פאולוס השני (רויטרס).
טוב, אז הוא גלובליסט. ובכן, כל נציגי הוותיקן הם גלובליסטים. זאת המטרה הסופית שלהם, נכון? לגרום לכל אחד בעולם להפוך להיות קתולי? אולי הם עוזבים את הפלגים המזרחיים-אורתודוכסים... לפחות עד סוף המסע. אף על פי כן, הם מאמינים שהם בעלי האמת, והם בשליחות, בדיוק כמו הנוצרים האוונגליסטים.

הקרדינלים לא ממש אוהבים להצביע לאפיפיורים צעירים. אם הם לא אוהבים את החזון שלו ואת השינויים שהוא מבצע במדיניות הכנסייה, אז הם צריכים לסבול עד שהוא גם ימות. מעניין. אני חשבתי שהקטולים מאמינים שהאפיפיור בלתי תקף, או לפחות בזמן שהוא משמיע הצהרה אקס קתדרה (מהכס).

האם אתם גם אוהבים ביטויים בלטיניים כמוני כגון סטטוס קוו? הם מזכירים לי על הגלות הנוכחית שלנו, ואי״ה האחרונה שלנו: הגלות של אדום (עשיו / רומא). חבל הרבה הרבה יהודים לא מבינים שאנחנו עדיין חיים בגלות ושהגלות היא עונש.
פיירבאטיסטה פיצהבלה, 59
פיירבטיסטה פיצבאלה הוא נזיר פרנציסקני איטלקי, המכהן מאז 24 באוקטובר 2020 כפטריארך הלטיני של ירושלים. ב-30 בספטמבר 2023, הועלה פיירבטיסה לדרגת קרדינל על ידי האפיפיור פרנציסקוס בטקס חגיגי בקריית הוותיקן ברומא.

הוא התמסר למזרח התיכון, והתמודד עם כמה משברים, כולל הסכסוך בין ישראל לחמאס.

ב-22 בדצמבר 2024, במהלך מלחמת חרבות ברזל, ביקר בכנסיית המשפחה הקדושה בעזה לרגל חג המולד והביע תמיכה בקהילה המקומית. (ויקיפדיה)
בביקור זה הוא הנחה את טקס ״קורבנא קדישא" (הוֹחָדָה). עם זאת, לפי הקתולים...
קרדינל ארץ הקודש מותח ביקורת על הפגנות נגד ישראל בקמפוסים של אוניברסיטאות בארה"ב (The Catholic Herald)

ב-16 באוקטובר 2023, הוא גינה את פעולות חמאס כברבריות והציע את עצמו כבן ערובה בתמורה לילדים ישראלים שבויים שהוחזקו בעזה במהלך מלחמת ישראל-חמאס ב-2023.
בסדר. אבל...
פיצהבלה תמך בסיום מלחמת ישראל-חמאס 2023 והכיבוש הישראלי של פלסטין. פיצהבלה הייתה חתומה על "הצהרה על ההסלמה במשבר ההומניטרי בעזה" שגינתה התקפות על אזרחים, קראה להורדת הסלמה וקראה לסיוע הומניטרי להיכנס לעזה. שר החוץ הישראלי אלי כהן ביקר את הצהרתו. (ויקיפדיה באנגלית)

אזרחים? הוא קרא לאזרחים להפסיק את שיתוף פעולה עם חמאס? הוא קרא לאזרחים להפסיק לתת לחמאס לקבל את סיוע ההומניטרי המיעוד להם?

כמובן, פיצאבלה לומד תנ"ך, ולכן הוא יודע שהקב״ה נשבע את ארץ ישראל לצאצאי יעקב אבינו, ולא לצאצאיו של ישמעאל (ערבים/מוסלמים).

אז, לדעתו משהו השתנה? כל הנוצרים מאמינים שהם היורשים הסופיים של ארץ ישראל, אז מה אכפת להם ממי שמתישב כאן בינתיים? הם מאמינים אלוהות/משיח שקר שלהם יבוא לסדר להם את הכל.
בשל התנהגותו במהלך מלחמת עזה, הוא נחשב למועמד מוביל לאפיפיורות, שעשוי להיבחר בקונקלווה האפיפיורית ב-2025. (ויקיפדיה באנגלית)

בביקורו בבית לחם בערב חג המולד 2023, פיצאבלה חבש כאפייה פלסטינית והביע רצון לשלום באזור. הוא חתם יחד על מסר חג המולד שפרסמו הפטריארכים וראשי הכנסיות בירושלים, הקורא לנוצרים להימנע מחגיגת החג בפומבי בסולידריות עם אלו שנפגעו מהמלחמה. (באנגלית ויקיפדיה)

אני מפרסם מידע כזה רק כי רבים מכם לא יכולים לקבל את העובדה שאין דבר כהפטריארך הלטיני של ירושלים טוב.

ברור שיהודים פטורים מלרדוף אחרי עובדי עבודה זרה בחו״ל. אבל האם אנחנו עדיין במצב שבו אנחנו צריכים לנחם את מיליוני מאמינים באלוהות/משיח שקר?

נראה שהאיחוד האורתודוקסי [אינגוני יהודים דתיים מודרניים OU] עונה על השאלה הזו עבורנו. והתשובה היא כן. תראו אותה להלן.

אני מחכה להסתדרות הרבנים דאמריקה [RCA] לבכות על כתבות כמו שלי שגורמות לאלימות אנטישמית שונאת ישראל בגולה ובמיוחד בארה״ב.

עלינו להתפלל שלא יהיה עוד אפיפיור בכלל... שינהיג מיליוני אנשים בפולחן לאלוהות כוזב. אפיפיור שמאלני, שמרני, בעד ישראלי, נגד ישראלי לא משנה. ראשית, אסור לנו להציג אפילו טיפה של תמיכה בעבודה זרה.

ה׳ ישמור אותנו.


האפיפיור פרנציסקוס

האיחוד היהודים האורתודוקסים [OU]: מכירים בצערם העמוק של חברינו בקהילה הקתולית על פטירתו של האפיפיור פרנציסקוס. מחשבותינו יהיו איתם בזמן האבל, ואנו מאחלים להם כוח וחוכמה בתקופת מעבר חשובה זו.

Esser Agaroth (2¢):
So, the pope died.

I knew there was a reason for the timing of the release of the movie Conclave, a thriller centered around the Vatican's process of selecting a new pope.

Coincidence? Or were they expecting the death of the 88 year old pope in ill health, sooner than later. This pope's views were, at times, considered controversial by Catholics. I will let the conservative and liberal Catholics discuss amongst themselves about that.

Here I will address the leader of the Catholic Church, as he relates to Israel.

But first off...

ברוך הטוב ומטיב.

המבין יבין.

Many of social media have taken issue with this comment, and others like it. Even those decrying this pope's anti-Israel stances want to claim that we are not to celebrate the downfall of our enemies.

I cannot believe that old canard is still being bandied around. I guess it is by Reform, Reconstructionist, or whatever Movement's supplementary school graduates who either did not get the memo, or received a revised and distorted version of it.

So, for their benefit, I'll just leave this here:
Babyonlian Talmud, Megillah 16a
After Haman trimmed his hair, Haman dressed Mordechai in the royal garments. Haman then said to him: Mount the horse and ride. Mordechai said to him: I am unable, as my strength has waned from the days of fasting that I observed. Haman then stooped down before him and Mordecai ascended on him. As he was ascending the horse, Mordecai gave Haman a kick. Haman said to him: Is it not written for you: “Do not rejoice when your enemy falls?” (Prov. 24:17) Mordechai said to him: This statement applies only to Jews, but with regard to you it is written: “And you shall tread upon their high places” (Deut. 33:29).
Moving on...
Only the 137 cardinals below the age of 80 can attend the papal conclave, electing the new pope. As of today, there are 252 cardinals, 137 of whom are cardinal electors. (Sky News)
However...
Following the last consistory in December 2024, [liberal] Pope Francis created 21 new cardinals, while 23 were created by [very conservative] Pope Benedict XVI and five by [conservative] Pope John Paul II.

Pope Francis created cardinals from 72 different countries, and 24 of those nations have never had a cardinal before. (Sky News) With the new additions, the pope will have created 110 of the 140 cardinals under the age of 80 permitted to choose his successor. (Deutche Welle)
So, did Francis only appoint those sharing his vision for the Catholic Church? If so, anyone of his ilk would have a huge advantage.

Here is a list of some of the candidates being mentioned in the news:
Cardinal Pietro Parolin, Italian, Vatican diplomat, 70.
A punters' favourite, Parolin is seen as a compromise candidate between progressives and conservatives. He has been a Church diplomat for most of his life and served as Pope Francis' secretary of state since 2013, the year Francis was elected. (Reuters)
Not sure how they can say that he is a compromise candidate, when Sky News reports that he as a close ally of the dead pope.
Jean-Marc Aveline, archbishop of Marseille, French, aged 66.
Aveline is known for his folksy, easy-going nature, his readiness to crack jokes, and his ideological proximity to Francis, especially on immigration and relations with the Muslim world.

He would also be the youngest pope since John Paul II (Reuters).
OK. So, he's a globalist. Well, all representatives of The Vatican are globalists. Isn't that the ultimate goal? Making everyone in the world Catholic? Maybe they'll leave the Eastern Orthodox factions alone... for now. Nevertheless, they believe they are bearers of the truth, and are on a mission, just like the Evangelical Christians.

The College of Cardinals does not really care for popes on the young side. If they do not like his vision and associated changes he makes to Church policy, they will have to suffer all the longer. Funny, isn't the pope considered to be infallible, or at least he makes statement ex cathedra (from the throne).

Don't you love Latin phrases? They remind me of , But more importantly, it should remind us of our current, and אי״ה (if The Almighty pleases), our last, exile, the exile of Edom (Esau / Rome). Too bad more Jews cannot take the hint.

But I digress...
Pierbattista Pizzaballa, 59
The Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem was made a cardinal by Pope Francis two years ago.

He has devoted himself to the Middle East, facing several crises, including the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Last Christmas, he celebrated mass at the Holy Family Church in Gaza. (Sky News)
However, according Catholics...
Holy Land Cardinal criticizes anti-Israel protests on US university campuses (The Catholic Herald)

On 16 October 2023, he condemned Hamas' actions as barbaric and offered himself as a hostage in exchange for captive Israeli children held in Gaza during the 2023 Israel–Hamas war.
OK. But...
Pizzaballa has advocated for an end to the 2023 Israel–Hamas War and the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Pizzaballa was a signatory to the "Statement on the Escalating Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza" which condemned attacks on civilians, called for de-escalation and called for humanitarian aid to enter Gaza. His statement was criticized by Israeli foreign minister Eli Cohen.
Did he call on citizens to stop collaborating with Hamas? did he call on citizens to report on Hamas taking the humanitarian aid meant for them?

Of course, Pizzaballa knows the Bible, and so he knows that the Land of Israel was divinely promised to the People of Israel, and not to Ishmael and his descendants (Arabs / Muslims).

So, that was then, this is now? Well, it would not be the first time Christians changed the rules and understanding of the Bible, beginning around 2,000 years ago, and thanks to none other than... Jews. These Jews rejected the authority of the Oral Torah. You know, like the Sadducees before them, then the  Karaites, the Reform Movement, etc.

The Sanhedrin under the leadership of Raban Gamliel even added a blessing to our Amidah, our standing prayer that we pray three times a day on regular weekdays, in which we refer to them as minim (heretics), malshinim (informers, as in rats), or meshumadim (apostates). Of course, we also condemn them in this prayer.

Christians believe that they are the true inheritors of The Almighty's favor, and thus the Land of Israel as well. They believe that their false deity/messiah will come and sort everything out for them. So, what do they care who currently has control of the Land? Better to go with the politically-correct, terrorists, in the meantime.
Due to his conduct during the Gaza War, he is considered a leading candidate for the papacy, who may be elected at the 2025 papal conclave. (Wikipedia)

On his visit to Bethlehem on Christmas Eve 2023, Pizzaballa donned a Palestinian keffiyeh and expressed a desire for peace in the region. He cosigned the Christmas message released by the Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem advocating Christians to refrain from public celebration of the holiday in solidarity with those affected by the war. (Wikipedia)
I only bother to post such information, since so many of you cannot accept the statement that no Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem is a good Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem

Sure, Jews are exempt from doing anything about this outside of the Land of Israel (A-hem!), and today probably even within Israel. But are we still in the position where we have to console the millions of followers of a false deity?

The Orthodox Union appears to answer this question for us. And the answer is yes.

I will just wait here for the Rabbinical Council of America [RCA] to cry about how rhetoric such as mine contributes to anti-Semitic Jew-hating violence in 'Murica the exile.

We should pray that there is no next pope... leading millions of humans in their worship of a false deity.

Liberal, conservative, pro-Israel, anti-Israel. First and foremost, we should not show even a drop of support for avodah zarah, often mistranslated as idolatry, but better translated as "foreign worship."

God help us.

מה אכפת לנו ממה שהאפיפיור חושב עלינו? / Why Should Jews Care About What the Pope Thinks?

ערב שבת קודש פר׳ נצבים תשפ"א
English follows the Hebrew.
ברבנות הראשית טוענים כי בדברים שנשא האפיפיור פרנציסקוס בדרשתו, הוא ביזה את היהדות והחזיר את מעמדה בעיניי הנצרות עשורים רבים אחורה. "לא נוכל להמשיך לקיים את הדיאלוגים הבין-דתיים עם האפיפיור, כל עוד לא תהיה הבהרה ונסיגה מהדברים האלה"
קובי נחשוני, אטילה שומפלבי | 26.08.21
עשר אגורות (2¢):
למה יש יהודים מופתעים? הנוצרות נוסדה בכפירה בתורה שבעל פה. ברור שהרבנים האלה יודעים את העובדה הזו. לפני כאלפיים שנים, המינים אפילו חז"ל הוסיף לנו ברכה לתפילת שמונה עשר בגללם: למינים ולמלשנים [למשומדים] אל תהיה תקווה וכו'

למה אנחנו צריכים דו-שיח בין דתיים? אנחנו חייבים לשכנע לאפיפיור שהוא וכל הנוצרים בעולם טועים בגדול?
...ואין אתה מצווה לרדוף אחריהם, בחוצה לארץ. (ספרי; משנה תורה הל' עבודה זרה ז,ב)
לכן, לא.

מה אכפת לנו מהדעות שלו?
עשו שונא ליעקב.
וזהו נגמר.

לקראת ראש השנה אנחנו מזכירים אחד לשני על ״המלך בשדה.״ כדאי לנו לא רק לדאג על מה שהקב״ה דורש מאיתנו אלא גם להפסיק כבר לדאג על מה שעובדי עבודה זרה חושבים עלינו. ודווקא עכשיו שהרבה מאיתנו מתגוררים בארץ ישראל, בארץ מולדת עם ישראל.

YNET: Israeli rabbis ask pope to clarify remarks on Jewish law
Head of Jewish state's relations with Holy See sends letter to senior cardinal after Pontiff Francis appears to suggest during public sermon that Torah is obsolete and that 'fulfillment is only found with Christ'

Reuters | 08.25.21

Israel's top Jewish religious authorities have told the Vatican they are concerned about comments that Pope Francis made about their books of sacred law and have asked for a clarification.

In a letter seen by Reuters, Rabbi Rasson Arousi, chair of the Commission of the Chief Rabbinate of Israel for Dialogue with the Holy See, said the comments appeared to suggest Jewish law was obsolete...

..."The law (Torah) however does not give life." (cont.)
Esser Agaroth (2¢):
Why are Jews surprised by such comments? Christianity was founded on the basis of rejection of the Oral Torah. It is certainly clear that these rabbis know this. About two thousand years ago, Haza"l (Our Sages of blessed memory) led by Rabban Gamliel even added a blessing to our 18-faceted prayer because of these heretics: "May the heretics and the informers [apostates] be without hope..."

Why do we need interfaith dialogue? Must we convince the Pope that he and all the Christians in the world are greatly mistaken?
... you are not commanded to pursue them outside of the Land. (Mishnah Torah, Laws of Foreign Worship and non-Jews 7: 2) 
No, we do not.

So, why should we care about his opinions of us?
"Esau hates Jacob." - Rabbi Shimon Bar-Yochai
That is, Esau (Edom) being the West (Malbi"m), and more specifically Rome, and its inheritors.

Before Rosh Hashanah, we remind each other that "The King is in the field." At this time should not only worry about what Our King, The Almighty requires of us, but also finally stop concerning ourselves with what worshippers of false deities think of us, especially now that many of us live in the Land of Israel, in the Divinely Promised Homeland of the Jewish People.

Exclusive! Two Arrested for Suspicion of Posting Posters in Protest of the Pope's Visit

מוצש"ק פר' במדבר תשע"ד

Last week, two Jews were arrested under suspicion of posting posters protesting the arrival of the the Pope to Israel.

They were released from police custody a few hours before Shabbath. I spoke to one of those arrested on the phone shortly after his release.

According to him, the State requested that they be temporarily banned from being within the city limits of  Jerusalem. The judge at their arraignment rejected this, and instead ordered them to stay at least 150 meters away from the Pope.

Here is a copy of the poster they have been accused of posting:



Accursed Christianity 

Complicit in the murder millions of Jews, and deaths under odd circumstances under the helm of the church and its leaders

They dream of the annihilation of the Jewish State.

Defiled and Unclean Pope

Get out of our Holy Land

Return the stolen Temple Vessels

The Jewish State Faithful

The Pope's 2014 Visit to Israel

מוצש"ק פר' במדבר תשע"ד

Welcome signs all over Jerusalem: Who is paying for these?? Israeli tax payers are!
"Peace Faith Tolerance" - for everyone except Jews, that is!

So far, it appears that the head of the Roman Catholic church, ysh"w, will be coming to Jerusalem tomorrow, not only to disrupt the daily lives of its residents, but to insult us, step on us, encourage the establishment of another Yishmaelite, terrorist state (which he, himself, should know is absent from the Bible)., and possibly prepare to take possession of pieces of our Holy Land.

Do you really think that he, and his minions, have their eyes set only on one floor in one building on Mt. Zion? Guess again....

They want the Temple Mount; they want Jerusalem; they envision everyone in Israel, and around the entire world, under their eventual control.

Worse yet, the Israeli government has been complicit in these endeavors, including allowing him to practice his avodah zarah (foreign/forbidden worship) as the Kothel (Western Wall), while closing off this Jewish Holy site,...to Jews!

Israeli Postal Service commemorative stamps issued in honor of the Poop's visit,
avodah zarah included! (*censored out for presentation on this kosher site)

Not only that, but the Israeli Government has been shamelessly slobbering over this Prince of Avodah Zarah, and exploiting his visit as support for the government's commitment to "freedom of religious expression." Even though as far as religions go, other than Judaism and the gentile keepers of the 7 Commandments of No'ah, there is absolutely no room for "freedom of religious expression" within the Land of Israel. Such a concept does not exist in the Torah. In fact, it is the exact opposite case scenario which the Torah presents to commands of us.

So, why the hell is this walking, spiritual pollutant being allowed into the Land of Israel, let alone welcomed as an honored guest?

The proper welcome sign for the Poop!
No Welcome!

The following schedule comes courtesy of "Yosele." My Esser Agaroth (2¢) commentary follows. You can see the Poop's itinerary on Tomer Devorah, along with her insightful commentary.

Israel And The Vatican: Give But No Take

מוצש"ק פר' ויגש תשע"ד

This was going around Facebook. Like many, I thought it was cute, differences between the nine-branched Hanukkah menorah and the seven-branched Beth HaMiqdash (Temple) Menorah aside.

Prime Minister Netanyahu presents Pope Francis with a Hanukkah menorah at their meeting, December, 2013

The added sarcastic, yet excellent, caption refers to the belief that the Vatican has many of our Temple vessels hidden away someplace, having "acquired" them from the preceding empires and powers that be.

L: The Arch Of Titus; R: Relief on the Arch depicting the carrying off
captured booty from Israel, including the Menorah.
Jerusalem Rabbi Yonatan Shtencel has at least been making an effort to raise awareness about the issue of the missing Temple vessels, asking the ambassador from the Vatican to Israel, to hand a letter to the Pope, requesting their return. The Ambassador responded that the Vatican does not have them, and, in my humble opinion, appeared to scold Rabbi Shtencel for his suspicion.

Unfortunately, it does not appear that requesting the return of the Temple vessels will be in the forefront of Prime Minister Netanyahu's mind, during this meeting.
Raw Story: Netanyahu heads to Rome for first talks with Pope FrancisAgence France-Presse, December 1, 2013
...When the two meet on Monday, they are likely to discuss the Iranian nuclear issue and the ongoing peace talks with the Palestinians
And they are also expected to discuss the pope’s planned visit to the Holy Land early next year. 
Pope Francis has already been invited to visit the Christian holy sites by Israeli President Shimon Peres in April, and by Palestinian leader Mahmud Abbas, who met him on October 17.
Israeli sources say the visit could take place before Peres ends his term as president in July. Although no date has been made official, sources on both sides say it is likely to take place on May 25-26. (...only a few days before Jerusalem Unification Day celebrations -- ironic)
The papal visit will reportedly begin in Jordan, a senior Vatican official said on Saturday, according to Jordanian state news agency Petra. 
“The pope’s visit to the Holy Land will begin in Jordan,” Vatican foreign affairs official Dominique Mamberti said in Amman after meeting Jordan’s Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh. 
Israel and the Vatican first established full diplomatic relations in 1993, but have been engaged in years of thorny diplomatic negotiations over property rights and tax exemptions for the Catholic Church, which have yet to be fully resolved. 
The Holy See wants full recognition of the legal and patrimonial rights of Catholic communities in Israel and formal confirmation of tax exemptions enjoyed by the Church since the Jewish state’s emergence in 1948 and which the UN has asked Israel to honour. 
One of the most delicate questions involves access by Catholic worshipers to a site on Mount Zion in Jerusalem called the Cenacle, where Christians believe Jesus (יש"ו) held the Last Supper the night before he was crucified. 
In June, the sides agreed to step up negotiations over the outstanding issues.
Israeli President Shimon Peres beat Netanyahu to the Vatican, making it there a good seven months ago, soon after Francis's ascension.

(avodah zarah blacked out) 
Vatican, April, 2013

Peres leaves office (for the time being) next summer. He has already been suspected of collusion with the Vatican in its chicanery. Is he the one forcing Netanyahu's hand to give into them even more, or is it someone else.

President Peres's Pretty Pope and Princess Pictures!

ט' לחודש הרביעי תשע"ג

These photos, screenshots from the Israeli President's Official YouTube Channel (source video below) show what is important to Shimon Peres: Goyim, in particular, his Illuminati pals.


We are allowed to demonstrate the bringing of the Bikkurim (the first fruits) to the secular Israeli President, his buddy, a high priest of avodah zarah and a chieftain of Edom, and demonstrate it to the Israeli Prime Minister. But, we are forbidden by the above mentioned individuals from performing the misswah properly, by bringing them to Har HaBayith (the Temple Mount) on Shavu'oth, and presenting them to a proper priest, a Kohain.

President Peres explains "something" to the former Pope Benedict XVI (Josef Ratzinger).
Ratzinger = Rat Singer

And, speaking of pedophilia Pope-phillia, here is President Peres with the new high priest of avodah zarah and a chieftain of Edom.

Vatican, April, 2013
President Peres was one of the first celebrities Heads of State to be received by the newly elected Pope Francis. President Peres presented what appeared to be a Tana"kh (a real Bible) in Hebrew,...as if all of the pieces of Israel thrown to the Vatican wasn't enough.

In return, Peres received some old coins, as if giving back the Temple vessels was too much to ask? Does the Israel President get to keep those coins, or do they go into a depository, which theoretically belongs to Israeli citizens? Hmm...


Sure, Queen Elizabeth II is no longer a "princess," but "queen" doen't start with the letter "p," does it?

Her Majesty does not appear to be terribly concerned that she is no longer welcome at the home of at least one resident (probably more) of K'far Tapu'ah, in the Shomron (Samaria).

What's this award for? Loyalty to the New World Order cause?
President Peres receives, yet, another award, for something,...I suppose being the "symbol" of Israel.

And, what you have all been waiting for, President Peres's wrap, techno, house, dance mix video!


Seriously, though. Is this President Peres dude for real?

I guess he risen to such a high level (of gaivah), that either doesn't care, is careless, or just loves to throw it into all of our faces.

He does whatever he wants, and expects the rest of us to do the same,...what HE wants.

Security For The Pope Emeritus: Oh, Really?

ז' לחודש הראשון תשע"ג

Please read the following, focusing on the red and the notes in blue italics. The rest of my commentary follows the article.

Pope Will Have Security, Immunity By Remaining In The Vatican

Philip Pullella
VATICAN CITY | Fri Feb 15, 2013

(Reuters) - Pope Benedict's decision to live in the Vatican after he resigns will provide him with security and privacy. It will also offer legal protection from any attempt to prosecute him in connection with sexual abuse cases around the world, Church sources and legal experts say.

From South Park Se10 Ep11 "Hell On Earth 2006"
"His continued presence in the Vatican is necessary, otherwise he might be defenseless. He wouldn't have his immunity, his prerogatives, his security, if he is anywhere else," said one Vatican official, speaking on condition of anonymity.

"It is absolutely necessary" that he stays in the Vatican, said the source, adding that Benedict should have a "dignified existence" in his remaining years. ("Dignified," as in "not in prison")

(snip)

The final key consideration is the pope's potential exposure to legal claims over the Catholic Church's sexual abuse scandals.

In 2010, for example, Benedict was named as a defendant in a law suit alleging that he failed to take action as a cardinal in 1995 when he was allegedly told about a priest who had abused boys at a U.S. school for the deaf decades earlier. The lawyers withdrew the case last year and the Vatican said it was a major victory that proved the pope could not be held liable for the actions of abusive priests. (Victory? Maybe the Vatican should do something already about preventing more children from being abused, instead of worrying about its "victories.")


Benedict is currently not named specifically in any other case. The Vatican does not expect any more but is not ruling out the possibility.


Esser Agaroth (2¢):
What did I tell you?

If you don't remember, I'll remind you of some of the Top Ten Possible Reasons why Pope Benedict may have resigned:
7. It was becoming increasingly difficult to keep his pedophile priests under control, and that was overwhelming him.

5. His resignation was part of a deal to cover up his involvement in a scandal,...other that pedophilia.

4. He was threatened, and forced to resign, in a power play by another aging cardinal.

3. He was pushed out, in order to put in a politically-correct pope, who would attract more followers.

2. He was offered a higher position of authority in the Illuminati hierarchy he could not refuse.
1. He knows that Vatican security will soon fail, and he will no longer be safe from the common people's exacting of justice from him.

Something's definitely up.

Watch for his leaving the Vatican for a visit, and traveling to countries where he knows for certain that he is safe from prosecution....

It appears that the Vatican does not want him living outside of its walls either, as the old Poop's new residence could become a place of pilgrimage. Is the Vatican that concerned that it could be ripped in two?

Sure, this old pope says that he resigned due to his inability to carry out his duties. But, don't forget that since 1981 he was Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, and then from 2002, he was also Dean of the College of Cardinals, until election as Pope in 2005. In other words, as a 31-year Vatican insider, "he  knows where the money's hidden, and knows where the bodies are buried."

Because of his age, and apparent frailty, he is more likely to be bumped off die in his sleep than his pre-predecesor, John Paul I, might have been.

Ratzinger = Rat Singer
 I doubt that the Vatican will be allowing this Ratzinger to sing much longer.

Stay tuned!

Top Ten POSSIBLE Reasons Pope Benedict XVI Resigned

מוצש"ק פר' תרומה תשע"ג

Here are the Top Ten POSSIBLE reasons Pope Benedict XVI (Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger) resigned, emphasis on the word "POSSIBLE."  This is ONLY speculation.  I am not in possession of ANY evidence, supporting ANY of the reasons listed.

10. His failure to move the Catholic Church in the direction he wanted, fast enough, was frustrating him.

9. His failure to recruit more priests and nuns was frustrating him.

8. His failure to grab more and more land in Israel for the Vatican was frustrating him.
