Pompeo To Meet the Pope, Demand Vatican End Its China
Connections
Sept. 25, 2020 (EIRNS)—Secretary Mike Pompeo, known as Caesar Pompeo to many, has been spending every day attacking some new institution or country for the horrible crime of working with China to bring development to the world. Having instructed state legislators this week to crack down on Chinese offers of investment and infrastructure development, and keeping the malign Chinese Americans out of PTA meetings, he is now going for the Catholic Church—ne, the Pontiff himself. On Sunday the Übermensch will travel to Italy, Greece, and Croatia, with a visit to the Vatican to meet with His Holiness Pope Francis. While Pompeo has no problem with the Pope’s nature worship or his call for the collapse of progress in an effort to save the world from climate change, he is quite unhappy about the Vatican’s relationship to China.
On Sept. 18 Pompeo penned an article for First Things, the conservative religious journal, instructing the Vatican that its relations with China “endangers its moral authority” and must be stopped. The Vatican struck a deal with Beijing in 2018, resolving the issue of the appointment of bishops, with both sides having a say, and are now meeting to extend the agreement. A virtual deal with the Devil, declares Pompeo, since the Chinese Communist Party, he says, is out to “subordinate God to the Party while promoting Xi himself as an ultramundane deity.” The Pope appears to be unaware, he rants, of the “Communist Party’s horrific treatment of Christians, Tibetan Buddhists, Falun Gong devotees, and other religious believers,” including the Uighur Muslims. How does he know? Why, just read the “State Department’s 2019 annual report on religious freedom.”
There are some “free” Catholics in China, Pompeo observes—in Hong Kong, where the NED/Soros/State Department-funded “freedom fighters” Martin Lee and Jimmy Lai show what “good” Catholics do on behalf of Pompeo’s regime-change operations.

Britain's reckoning with past systemic child abuse
is long overdue

When the pope said mass in Ireland in 2018, a vast field in Dublin’s Phoenix Park was turned into a grid of “pilgrims’ corrals” to control the expected massive crowds, which never materialised. Out of a dozen people in my section, two nuns talked to me about a priest back home who had abused a young woman.
Another pilgrim, down from Belfast for the occasion, said her aunt had been sent to a religious-run institution as a teenager because she was pregnant. Her son was taken away. On her deathbed, her aunt was still asking the priest for forgiveness.
The pope had come for the World Meeting of Families. During the gathering of Catholic hierarchy and faithful, news broke about nuns arrested in Scotland on charges of abuse at the Smyllum Park orphanage they ran, where hundreds died. The charges resulted from the Scottish child abuse inquiry. The same order, the Daughters of Charity, ran the largest mother-and-baby home in Ireland.
“The institutions were imported from Britain,” the nuns in the corral said. While the Vatican imposed its influence through religious orders, it’s true that Britain laid the foundations for what I call the shame industrial complex, through the workhouse system imposed from the 1700s that punished vulnerable people and separated children from parents.
For the past decade, investigations in Ireland have exposed the legacy of the state-funded, religious-run institutions, from industrial schools to Magdalene laundries. Canada and Australia have confronted a similar past of institutional abuse and forced adoption. Now, as abuse inquiries in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are set to issue final reports, a reckoning is overdue in Britain.
In 1999, the Irish state apologised to people abused as children in religious-run institutions, launching a decade-long inquiry. Catholic orders were given indemnity for paying a fraction of compensation, with gag rules imposed on survivors receiving redress. The state has recently attempted to seal child abuse inquiry records for 75 years. But the breaking of silences catalysed change in Ireland and beyond.
Investigations in Ireland also led to one of the UK’s biggest public inquiries. Set up in 2012, the historical institutional abuse inquiry in Northern Ireland found systemic abuse in residential institutions for children operating between 1922 and 1995. This year, after tireless campaigning by survivors, a redress scheme opened up.
