The investigation into the death of Princess Diana was named Operation Paget?

You may find this interesting, maybe not.

You may not believe this but I can assure you a lot of people in high positions do.

Never judge their morality (nae sanity) against your own.

"Let me tell every woman, however much " protected", whether Dairymaid or Duchess, that the safeguards which she imagines to be thrown around herself are but a mirage of the past. Her own and her children's future are at the mercy of those [occult] forces."
- Edith Starr Miller
Who died in Paris under suspicious circumstances in 1933
and who was authoress of the book Occult Theocrasy which was published after her sudden death by her friends.

She was married to Almeric Hugh Paget, 1st Baron of Queenborough, Union Party MP, House of Lords, Knight of the Order of the British Empire, First Treasurer of the League of Nations, and member of British Union of Fascists.

And was a Knight of Malta as was Lord Stevens who headed the Metropolitan Police investigation into Princess Diana's death.

See Knights of Malta

Quote:
CHAPTER XXI
KNIGHTS OF MALTA
The Knights of St. John of Jerusalem, or Hospitallers
of St. John, afterward called Knights of Rhodes
and finally Knights of Malta, were founded about the
commencement of the Crusades, as a military and religious
order. 1


Occult Theocrasy - Edith Starr Miller - Page 146

Quote:
"The power of theocrasy or exercise of government rule over the masses by a hierarchy of priests or adepts rested on its dual system of teaching, namely : Exoterism and Esoterism, the former a code of discipline of the thought and mode of life of the masses; the latter the hierarchic school wherein were trained the chosen adepts destined to safeguard the rules imposed upon the people by the high priests,"
- Edith Starr Miller - Occult Theocrasy.

Tim Geithner is current Pilgrim Society President of the Knights of Malta

All the members of the 1910 Jekyll Island meeting were Pilgrim Society Members, a branch of the Knights of Malta.

The penultimate chapter of Occult Theocrasy is called International Bank. Page 647.

Queen Elizabeth II is also a member of the Knights of Malta

So is George Bush, Oliver North, Nelson Mandela, David Rockefeller, Allen Dulles, J Edgar Hoover and James Jesus Angleton

And Tony Blair

Image
The father of the man on the left was an Irgun Terrorist who killed British people.
He's in charge of militarizing Youth Brigades.

Before Tony Blair gave a pro-Clinton speech during the impeachment crisis, Emanuel reportedly screamed into Blair's face:

"Don't f__k this up"

And yes he also is a Knight of Malta.

A man who would sell his mother

Oh and so is Clinton.

See Bank Bailout documents

Quote:
The CEOs present at the October 13 meeting were Vikram Pandit of Citigroup, Jamie Dimon of JP Morgan, Richard Kovacevich of Wells Fargo, John Thain of Merrill Lynch, John Mack of Morgan Stanley, Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs, Robert Kelly of Bank of New York, and Ronald Logue of State Street Bank.


Jamie Dimon - Knight of Malta
Richard Kovacevich - Knight of Malta
John Thain - Knight of Malta
Nothing on John Mack, however the JP Morgan Stanley building was where Knights of Malta meetings took place.
Lloyd Blankfein - Knight of Malta
Robert Kelly - Jesuit trained Knight of Malta
Ronald Logue - another Jesuit trained Knight of Malta.

Nothing on Citigroup apart from Rockefeller - Knight of Malta.

October 13th ay? Took them 701 years.

Anybody see a pattern here?

Here's how the Queen always greets a Pope.

Image
John Paul II

Image
John XIII

Windsor, Queen Elizabeth Mary II (1926-)

* See also: House of Guelph, Guelphs and Ghibellines, Mountbatten-Windsor (her personal surname)
* Queen of England since 1953, married to Prince Philip Mountbatten. The Queen has been, and might still be, a major stockholder in the Rio Tinto Group and other large corporations. No official details are ever released.
*
* Knight of Malta info:
o "the Commonwealth of Nations, headed by Queen Elizabeth II, is made up of 53 nations, spanning the globe, accounting for one-fifth of the land mass of the Earth, and a very high percentage of its strategic resources and population. Though nominally an alliance of independent states, the Commonwealth was itself founded, in the late 19th Century, as a perpetuation of the British Empire."
o "She commands some of the Maltese Cross's inner hierarchy cores such as Pilgrim Society and Order of the Garter. Remember how this Guelph has control over the United States which has always been controlled by the Hudson Bay Company or should we say Russel Trust. She so-called owns 1/6th of the Earth's land! She's the wealthiest land owner in the entire World far excelling the Pope who's third."
o "And let's not forget the Queen of England and the Order of St.John in the USA : http://www.saintjohn.org/ and the so called Russian Grand Priory in exile now back in control of good old communist Russia another creation and evil experiment of the Vatican lead New World Order, this link represents the Russian Orthodox connection to the rulers of worldwide Christianity the Vatican and their Knights of Malta militia from Via Condotti...

Lammott du Pont, founder of the Du Pont dynasty - Knight of Malta

William Stamps Farish III born 1939 - Knight of Malta.

* The Bush-Farish axis had begun back in 1929. In that year the Harriman bank bought Dresser Industries, supplier of oil-pipeline couplers to Standard and other companies. Prescott Bush became a director and financial czar of Dresser, installing his Yale classmate Neil Mahlon as chairman. George Bush would later name one of his sons after the Dresser executive.
* William S. Farish was the main organizer of the Humble Oil Co. of Texas, which Farish merged into the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey. Farish built up the Humble-Standard empire of pipelines and refineries in Texas
* Bush and Farish: When George Bush was elected Vice President in 1980, Texas mystery man William (`` Will ) Stamps Farish III took over management of all of George Bush's personal wealth in a `` blind trust. Known as one of the richest men in Texas, Will Farish keeps his business affairs under the most intense secrecy. Only the source of his immense wealth is known, not its employment. Will Farish has long been Bush's closest friend and confidante. He is also the unique private host to Britain's Queen Elizabeth II: Farish owns and boards the studs which mate with the Queen's mares. That is her public rationale when she comes to America and stays in Farish's house. It is a vital link in the mind of our Anglophile President. President Bush can count on Will Farish not to betray the violent secrets surrounding the Bush family money. For Farish's own family fortune was made in the same Hitler project, in a nightmarish partnership with George Bush's father. On March 25, 1942, U.S. Assistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold announced that William Stamps Farish (grandfather of the President's money manager) had pled `` no contest to charges of criminal conspiracy with the Nazis. Farish was the principal manager of a worldwide cartel between Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey and the I.G. Farben concern. The merged enterprise had opened the Auschwitz slave labor camp on June 14, 1940, to produce artificial rubber and gasoline from coal. The Hitler government supplied political opponents and Jews as the slaves, who were worked to near death and then murdered. Arnold disclosed that Standard Oil of N.J. (later known as Exxon), of which Farish was president and chief executive, had agreed to stop hiding from the United States patents for artificial rubber which the company had provided to the Nazis.

The Oath of the Knights of Malta

just a few
I think some of those fellows were in pretty powerful positions
In fact the order of Malta has ruled US Presidency for 20 years
if you just take Clinton and Bushes and then add 8 years with Ronald Reagan
I can say that America's has steadily gone down hill under these men
these men are as CORRUPT as they come

Oh no Roger the Order of Malta is still very much in power

In his book, ‘Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army’, Jeremy Scahill links the modern security firm to the Knights of Malta.

The writer argues that “Blackwater’s employees… share the same religious zeal of ancient crusaders”, the Egyptian weekly newspaper Al-Ahram reported.

The point that gets missed here is that these people now own your bank account and can pull the plug at any time they choose.

This agreement was formulated on October 13th 2008. Exactly 701 years after the demise of the Knights Templar and the transference of their wealth to the Hospitallers

I was banned from Dafoe's Templar History website, he who shall not be named on this forum was kept on despite it was he who first began the insults and the spamming. I regard this banning as a trophy.

That tells you a great deal about that website.

They call it Diversion of a Discourse, it's lying to everyone else.

New Grand Master for Order of St Lazarus

Times of Malta | Oct 12, 2008

The installation of the new Grand Master of the Military and Hospitaller Order of St Lazarus of Jerusalem recently took place at the Anglican Cathedral of Manchester, UK.

Don Carlos Gereda de Borbon, Marquis of Almazan was elected by a chapter general of the Order worldwide. Delegations represented Priories, Bailiwicks and Commanderies from Britain, European countries and also from USA, Canada, Australia, Mexico, Japan and South Africa.

The Grand Priory of the Maltese Islands Grand Cross Chev. Joseph R. Pace headed an eight-man delegation that participated throughout the event.

The solemn installation service included readings, communal prayers and hymns. A homily was delivered by Gregorious III Leham, spiritual protector of the Order and patriarch of the Greek Catholic Melchite Church.

The chapter general was organised by the Grand Bailiwick of England and Wales. It was chaired by the Grand Commander Chev. David James.

The activities ended at a gala dinner where Maltese Grand Prior presented the Grand Master, as well as Grand Master Emeritus and His Beatitude Patriarch Gregorios III with a signed copy of a book about the Order’s chequered history The Hospitaller Knights of St Lazarus by Grand Priory Hospitaller Charles Savona Ventura which was published in Malta by the Grand Priory


A finer bunch of crooks would be hard to assemble anywhere!



As prostitute Mandy Rice Davies once said in court:

"You would say that wouldn't you?"

The Sovereign MILITARY Order of the Knights of Malta

love the bit about former Nazi Kurt Waldheim being Knighted by the Pope.

You know Roscoe
its the vow of Obedience that gets me
who do they Obey?

The Pope?

I saw a friend of mine being ordained and the surprising thing to me
was he vowed obedience to the BISHOP

not Jesus Christ not the Pope but the Bishop

then you get in conflict with being a citizen in the USA

I just think this Obedience thing is not the teachings of Christ
this is just Crusader nonsense and they didn't do well

Listen to

Behold a Pale Horse by William Cooper. The number one underground best seller of all time. Which is made more remarkable inasmuch as you cannot order this book by credit card.

Better still get the book and read it yourself. William Cooper was shot and killed by the "police". in November 2001.

Bill Clinton (Knight of Malta) called William Cooper the most dangerous man in America. As children both Bill Clinton and William Cooper were intitiated into the De Molay Organisation

I have read Cooper and he is fascinating

It is like I said this being a soldier for Christ ....is wrong
the Crusades LOST ...if Christ was for it they would win

but they LOSE every time

you think that they would get it

it is not about War ...its about Peace

this thing about Royalty
didn't we spend centuries with Emperors and Kings just to find out that
they have no special bloodline ...they are human beings like everybody else

I love alice in wonderland
the Queen of hearts had no power once her subjects did not obey her

that is why Obedience is their number one rule
so they can rule over you

First off, go down your long list and take out every Jew and Protestant on it (including all American presidents) who received an award of merit from the SMOM, not knighthood or membership in the Order itself. Even our singular Catholic president wasn't admitted to the SMOM.

Secondly, in the consecration of a Catholic priest, obedience to Christ doesn't need to be stated, it's the entire point of the exercise. Priests promise to serve God and obey their bishops because their bishops are their hierarchical superiors.

THE KNIGHTS OF MALTA

The Scottish Branch of the Ancient High and Exalted Order of the Knights of Malta Through the Orange and Masonic Tradition

Quote:
The Ancient and Illustrious Order of the Knights of Malta is a body of men banded together to promote Protestant unity and to defend the Protestant faith against all foes whatsoever. Cradled in the Holy Land amid the scenes of our Savior's life and passion, it arrived at it hightest dignity when it embraced the doctrines of the Reformers, and under the leadership of Sir James Sandilands, the first Protestant Grand Commander, assisted John Knox in his holy work in Scotland. Since that, the Order has been the faithful ally of the Protestant Church.

This is but one of many privately launched initiatives adopting the name and insignia while pretending to have an historical link to the SMOM (i.e. the St. John "copycats"). These are categorized as false orders, having nothing whatsoever to do with the historical Order of Malta.

http://www.chivalricorders.org/orders/self-styled/selfsty1.htm

Let's test your mettle and see if you can successfully identify the "lineage" of the copycat most relevant to our RLC enigma. Have a go, Roscoe.

The only protestant Order "legitimately" related to the original (more or less, if you consider confiscation and obfuscation to be legitimate), is the Anglican Order of St John. Point a la ligne.


Not exactly. The Venerable Order of St. John of Jerusalem (originally Anglican, now ecumenical) is actually not a branch of the SMOM. It was created in Britain in 1831 and chartered by Queen Victoria in 1888. Although it was recognized by the SMOM in 1963, it is an independent body claiming only a common history with the SMOM until 1558.

Likewise the Bailliwick of Brandenburg (Prussia) was an historic branch of the German Langue of the SMOM which accepted Protestants. It was dissolved during the Napoleonic War and reinstituted in 1852 as the Johanniterorden under the protection of the Prussian Royal House. Together with its offshoots, the Johanniterorden i Sverige and Johanniter Orde in Nederland, these four primarily Protestant bodies constitute the Alliance of Orders of Saint John and are acknowledged by the SMOM as legitimate heirs to the St. John tradition in their respective countries, though entirely independent.

THE KNIGHTS OF MALTA

The Scottish Branch of the Ancient High and Exalted Order of the Knights of Malta Through the Orange and Masonic Tradition

Quote:
The Ancient and Illustrious Order of the Knights of Malta is a body of men banded together to promote Protestant unity and to defend the Protestant faith against all foes whatsoever. Cradled in the Holy Land amid the scenes of our Savior's life and passion, it arrived at it hightest dignity when it embraced the doctrines of the Reformers, and under the leadership of Sir James Sandilands, the first Protestant Grand Commander, assisted John Knox in his holy work in Scotland. Since that, the Order has been the faithful ally of the Protestant Church.


This is but one of many privately launched initiatives adopting the name and insignia while pretending to have an historical link to the SMOM (i.e. the St. John "copycats"). These are categorized as false orders, having nothing whatsoever to do with the historical Order of Malta.


So there are Protestants Knights of Malta then? where do you supposed Tim Geithner and Rahm Emmanuel are coming from? Federal Reserve and Obama's advisor respectively.

Let's test your mettle and see if you can successfully identify the "lineage" of the copycat most relevant to our RLC enigma. Have a go, Roscoe.

I'm not sure how your brain works.

Let me try to guess what's going through your mind.

Disneyland?

No. To be admitted as a knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM) you have to be Roman Catholic. This is not a requirement to receive the SMOM's Order of Merit, but recipients are not given knighthood in the SMOM. Britain's Venerable Order of St. John and Germany's Johanniterorden (as well as its satellites in Sweden and The Netherlands) are recreations whose only ties to the SMOM are historical (pre-dating the Protestant Reformation). They are not members of the SMOM. And then there are dozens of other false recreations that have no authentic links to the SMOM whatsoever (like the one you turned up).

Correct title

Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and of Malta, Order of St. John, Knights of Malta, and Chevaliers de Malte;

May I recommend here for those troublesome split hairs.

Do you people get training on thread destruction? How is one recruited? Do you have to display a particular talent for pedantry and hair splitting?
