Knights of Malta
Contents
Official Narrative
The Knights of Malta or the Sovereign Millitary Order of Malta are a self described Roman Catholic order, with 13,500 contributing members.[1] The BBC describes the group as "a major international humanitarian organisation".[2] Matthew Festing, the 79th Prince and Grand Master of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta said about the order in 2013 that "On the one hand it’s a sovereign entity. On the other hand it’s a religious order. On the other hand it’s a humanitarian organization. It’s a complicated mixture of things".[1] [3]
Problems
The group includes prominent members of world governments, intelligence agencies, the banking industry, Big Media, and the military industrial complex which populate the deep state, which fits uncomfortably with the group's stated aims of "Poverty, chastity and obedience", and also with its claims that the order is above international law.[4]
Leadership
The group's leader is termed "Grand Master" and is elected in closed session, retaining the title for life. The current (79th) leader, since 2008, is Matthew Festing, a member since 1977. [5] His predecessor, also an Englishman, was the first since 1258.
2013 Celebration
In February 1113, Pope Paschal II issued a papal bull which declared the order independent from bishops or secular authorities. Accordingly, in 2013, a 900th anniversary celebration was held in Rome, to which over 1,000 knights and dames from over 100 countries attended.[2]
Freemasonry
In spite of open antagonism between the catholicism and freemasonry[6], many of the Knights of Malta are reported to also be freemasons.[7][8]

| Seymour Hersh | “'We're going to change mosques into cathedrals. And when we get hold of all the oil, nobody' s going to give a damn.' That's an attitude that pervades, I'm here to say, a large percentage of the Special Operations Command, the Joint Special Operations Command and Stanley McChrystal, the one who got in trouble because of the article in Rolling Stone, and his follow-on, a Navy admiral named McRaven, Bill McRaven — all are members or at least supporters of Knights of Malta. McRaven attended, so I understand, the recent annual convention of the Knights of Malta they had in Cyprus a few months back in November. They're all believers — many of them are members of Opus Dei. They do see what they are doing — and this is not an atypical attitude among some military — it's a crusade, literally. They see themselves as the protectors of the Christians. They're protecting them from the Muslims in the 13th century. And this is their function. They have little insignias, they have coins they pass among each other, which are crusader coins, and they have insignia that reflect that, the whole notion that this is a war, it's culture war.” | Seymour Hersh | January 2011 |

| Document:December 2016 Papal Letter | letter | 6 December 2016 | Cardinal Raymond Burke Jorge Mario Bergoglio | A leaked "strictly confidential" set of two letters: one from Pope Francis (in Italian & English) to Knights of Malta Cardinal Patron Raymond Burke, who has added his own covering letter addressed to Grand Master Festing. Pope Francis appears to demand that Freemasonry ("relativist" groups contrary to the Catholic faith) be rooted out of the Knights, and that those complicit (e.g., von Boeselager) in practices contrary to Church teaching be dealt with. |

It was a "precautionary" suspension of von Boeselager caused by the latter's duplicity in various matters, including the Swiss trust, but primarily his complicity with and cover-up of Malteser International's practices contrary to Church teaching. The suspension was later annulled with the help of von Boeselager's Vatican cronies, and Festing was forced to resign by Pope Francis. |
| Document:Their Will Be Done | article | 1 August 1983 | Martin A Lee | How the CIA targets powerful hierarchies for infiltration and influence. The Roman Catholic Church's claim to be the one and only authentic 'Church of Christ on Earth' does not exempt them from exploitation by deep politicians. This article powerfully demonstrates both the Catholic Church's power and its susceptibility to the machinations of Mammon. As they say in South America, "When the CIA goes to church, it doesn't go to pray." |
