Chapter 4 - The Liberal Jesuit from Latin America  p. 73-74

"The only group of Catholics whom Archbishop Bergoglio treated severely were conservative Catholics, whose interest in the traditional Latin Mass he blocked. "He has persecuted every single priest who made an effort to wear a cassock, preach with firmness, or that was simply interested in Summorum Pontificum [ Pope Benedict's authorization for wider use of the traditional Latin Mass], Argentine journalist Marcelo Gonzalez has written. Bergoglio referred to conservative religious orders as "restorationist factions" and decried their "rigid religiosity."....

"Pope Francis biographer Paul Valley has quoted "senior Jesuits" in Pope Francis: Untying the Knots who feared a Bergoglio papacy:

    'I was really shocked when I began to contact the people I knew in the Jesuits to say, "Who is this man, Bergoglio?" ... Yes, I know Bergoglio. He's a person who's caused a lot of problems in the society and is highly controversial in his own country.... he's surrounded by this personality cult, which is extremely divisive... He left the Society of Jesus in Argentina in ruins, with Jesuits divided, institutions destroyed, and financially broken. We have spent two decades trying to fix the chaos this man left us.'

"This was an extraordinary thing to read, and it wasn't a lone voice," Vallely said. "Three other senior Jesuits told me similar things....

Chapter Five - "The Unholy Alliance" p.75

"The election of a liberal Jesuit to the papacy thrilled Democrats in the U.S.A., whose unholy alliance wit the Catholic left goes back many decades. Barack Obama, one of the pope's most prominent supporters, has been a beneficiary of that alliance.  The faculty at Jesuit Georgetown University in Washington, DC, ranked as one of the top donors to his campaign.

In a grim irony, Obama, whose presidency substantially eroded religious freedom in America, rose to power in spite of the Catholic Church BUT BECAUSE OF IT. The archdioceses of Chicago helped bankroll his radicalism in the 1980s. As he recounts in his memoirs, he began his work as a community organizer in the rectory rooms of Holy Rosary parish on Chicago's South Side.

The Alinskyite organization for which he worked - the Developing Communities Project - received tens of thousands of dollars from the Catholic Campaign for Human Development.

Obama was close to late Chicago cardinal Joseph Bernardin. A proponent of the seamless garment movement within the Catholic Church in the 1980s, a movement that downplayed abortion and emphasized political liberalism, Bernardin was drawn to the socialism and relativism of the liberal elite. He was so gay-friendly that he requested that the Windy City Gay Chorus perform at his funeral.

He embodied Obama's conception of a "good" bishop, and one can see in his admixture of left-wing politics and relativistic nonjudgmental theology a foreshadowing of the rise of Pope Francis. Cardinal Bernardin put pressure on his priests to work with Obama and even paid for Obama's plane fare out to a 1980 training session in Los Angeles organized by Saul Alinsky's industrial Areas Foundation. The conference was held at a Catholic College in Southern California, Mount St. Mary's, which has long been associated with the Alinsky's group.
    This alliance between the Catholic Left explains the honorary degree Obama received from the University of Notre Dame in 2009, even as he plotted to persecute the Church under Obamacare's contraceptive and abortifacient mandate. Notre Dame's former president Fr. Theodore Hesburgh who supported honoring Obama, had been close to Monsignor John Egan, the socialist and sat on Saul Alinsky's industrial Areas Foundation Board.
     The unholy alliance also explains how the Democratic Party, despite its support of abortion and gay marriage, won a majority of the Catholic vote in Obama's two presidential elections. At the 2012 Democratic convention in Charlotte, nuns such as Sister Simone Campbell shared the stage with abortion advocates from Planned Parenthood ... As Thomas Pauken writes in The Thirty Years War  " the radicalization of the Catholic clergy turned to be one of Saul Alinsky's most significant accomplishments." George H. Kubeck

EXCERPTS FROM MONA CHAREN BOOK, "USEFUL IDIOTS: HOW LIBERALS GOT IT WRONG IN THE COLD WAR AND STILL BLAME AMERICA FIRST" REGNERY PUBLISHING, 2003

Introduction: None Dare Call It Victory -  p. 1 -8

    "Some on the Left are now attempting to obscure the history of the period - to say that all of us were united in our opposition to Communism. That is false.... The West won the Cold War. The free nations defeated the totalitarian ones. The capitalists outperformed the statists. The believers outlasted the atheists. The U.S.A., flawed and divided as we were, persevered to see the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and nearly all of us satellites implode. ... the world stood stunned as the Communist empire ended "not with a bang but a whimper."....

 

    "The Cold War which began in the weary years after the Second World War, when, in the words of Winston Churchill "the whole world [was] divided intellectually and to a large extent geographically between the creeds of Communist discipline and individual freedom." .... the elder President Bush never offered public words to mark the momentous and longed for demise of the Communist colossus. ...

 

    "Almost no one - neither the most ferocious anticommunist nor the most appeasing fellow traveler - imagined that the Soviet Union would simply fold up their tents and declare bankruptcy. But that is exactly what happened. [It was a miracle.] ... It was Gorbachev's hope to reform Communism and thereby save it, not to slay the monster from within....

 

    "As they had done in East Berlin in 1953, in Budapest in 1956, and in Prague in 1968, the people of Eastern Europe saw the light glinting through the unlocked door and rushed to pry it open further. Thye held candlelight vigils in churches and poured into streets to demand free elections and other liberties. But this time the Soviet tanks did not roll in to crush them. .... In Poland, the government restored to the Catholic Church property that had been confiscated decades earlier... Vaclav Havel was released from prison. The regime in Budapest began to dismantle the 218 mile security fence that had kept Hungarians and other Eastern Europeans from escaping to Austria.... As recently as Feb. 5, 1989, East German border guards had shot and killed a man attempting to escape to the West....

 

    "Liberal opinion makers in America were not overjoyed by the Cold War's close.... Gorbachev further argued that the cause of the Cold War to be found in the West's misinterpretation of Stalin. Stalin, Gorbachev insisted, had neither the intent nor the capacity to expand communist hegemony beyond Eastern Europe.... President Bush was a great believer in personal relationships among leaders. He had grown somewhat fond of Gorbachev, and felt strongly that it would have been bad form to, in his words, "gloat" that "we had won, and they had lost."....

 

    "Instead, it was a moment that ought to have been marked by prayerful celebration and thanksgiving. For millions of people worldwide (though over a billion in China, North Korea, and Cuba remain unfree), the end of communism means the end of profound physical and spiritual suffering. For millions more it means release from the fear of nuclear war. For the entire world, it means the possibility of peaceful progress on all fronts. It would've been possible to capture this in words, if  Mr. Bush had simply tried.

 

    "Most American liberals had long since ceased to believe that we were engaged in a "Cold War" over questions of liberty versus tyranny, or good versus evil, and had instead adopted the view that the Cold War was simply a kind of superarmed madness, in which two "scorpions in a bottle" threatened to destroy each other (and all of humanity with them) for no discernible reason.... Robert Heilbroner, a liberal academic, .... "the collapse of the Soviet system, hailed as a victory for human freedom, was also a defeat for human aspirations." ...Frances Fitzgerald, .... "I don't any American Soviet scholar who believes that the United States ended the Cold War."

 

    Those who spent their adult lifetimes denying that the Cold War was worth fighting, those who could never see the point in defense spending... are now attempting to rewrite history..

Preface:

    With honest journalism dead in the mainstream media, and the integrity of the teaching profession prostituted, our country is living in the twilight zone.  Let's meet the "Useful Idiots" of 16 years ago in 2003.

"Do you remember Jane Fonda, Dan Rather, Al Gore, Ted Kennedy, Jimmy Carter, Jesse Jackson, and all the other liberals who were - and are - always willing to blame America first and defend its enemies as simply "misunderstood." These are the liberals who flocked to Castro's Cuba and called it paradise, just as the previous generation of liberals visited the Soviet Union and proclaimed its glorious future.

"They are the liberals who saw Communist Vietnam and Cambodia - in fact, Communism everywhere - as generally a beneficial force, and blamed America as a gross, blind, and blundering giant.

"Now that the Cold War has been won, these liberals, amazingly, are proud to claim credit for the victory - conveniently forgetting their apologies for the Communists and their vicious attacks on Cold Warriors such as Ronald Reagan.

"But nationally syndicated columnist Mona Charen isn't about to let them rewrite history. In her shocking book, "Useful Idiots: How Liberals got it Wrong in the Cold War and Still Blame America First, she exposes:

"1) Prominent liberals who served in the Clinton Administration - such Madeleine Albright, Sidney Blumenthal, and Strobe Talbert - all of whom turned a blind eye to the Soviet "Evil Empire" but now wanted to be counted as Cold Warriors.

2) Media figures who clucked with praise for Communists and smirked with snide disdain for America -0 including Bill Moyers, Phil Donohue, Bryant Gumbel, and Katie Couric.

3) Professor who poisoned the campuses with Anti-Americanism and anti-capitalism at top universities such as Princeton, Brown, Columbia and Georgetown.

4) Entertainers - such as Harry Belafonte, Peter Seeger, Meryl Streep, Martin Sheen, and Ed Asner - who use the megaphones of their fame to blame America first."

All of the above is  in the book cover of Mona Sharon's book.  She holds liberals accountable - and reveals the horrifying crimes that these liberals helped defend and cover up for the Communists. If it wasn't for President Ronald Reagan we would still be in a Cold War or maybe even in a surrender pattern to Communist Russia. Today, these Leftist liberals and socialists are waging psychological warfare against the American people because they hate President Trump. Today, the mainstream media is to the Leftist Controlled Democratic Party what Pravda was to the Communist Party in Stalin's time.

Our Founding Fathers who wrote and came up with our Constitution studied these crazy ideas that are proclaimed today and found them Utopian and destructive to being an American. Any changes today will have to be via the Constitution.                                                                                                                        

 In closing and most shocking to the Catholic American citizens is to find out the true nature of the Catholic-in-name-only politicians and persons within the American Catholic Church. They are in  your next three letters already posted on my blog. How within the Catholic Church, they  promoted early in his days, Barack Obama and radical and atheist Saul Alinsky and they successfully got Obama elected with the duped American Catholic vote. What a historic colossal shame and tragedy! No wonder 10% of Americans are ex-Catholics. The CINOPs are mis-informed and duped liberal and socialist traitors; not only to the U.S. American Catholic Church but to America itself. Serious mistakes were made by the U.S. Catholic Church; have the guts and integrity to say it so. HENCE EDUCATE DUPED VOTERS!  In May of 2019, it will be 12 years in the study of the CINOP phenomena via this blog.                                                          George H. Kubeck

BLOOD LETTERS # 2

BLOOD LETTERS # 2

IN PURSUIT OF THE TRUTH - HTTP://WWW.CINOPSBEGONEBLOGSPOT.COM - MAR. 18/19

IN MEMORY OF THE CHINESE FREEDOM FIGHTER EXECUTED ON APRIL 29, 1968

From the book by Lian XIm "Blood Letters" The Untold Story of Lin Zhad, A Martyr in Mao's China.

Introduction - 4- 6

"At a certain point, having poked the fingers on her left hand so many times, she could no longer draw blood from them. They turned numb when pressed. In a letter to her mother dated November 14, 1967, she wrote: 'The small puddle of blood that I squeezed out for for writing is almost all gone. My blood seems to have thinned lately; coagulation is quite poor. It may be partially due to the weather getting cold. Alas dear Mama! This is my life! It is also my struggle! It is my battle!'

  
  "The fullest expression of Lin Zhao's political beliefs is found in her 1965 letter to the editorial board of People's Daily. She chose July 14, the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille, as the day to begin writing it. It took her almost five months to complete letter, which ran to about 140,000 characters, 137 pages in all. She did it ink. but stamped it repeatedly with a shirt button sized seal bearing the character zhao and inked with her blood.

    
"In the letter, Lin Zhao challenged the theory of a "continued  class struggle"which the Communists saw as intrinsic to human history from which there is no escape. Since the 1920s, the CCP had looked upon this theory as an immutable truth and had used it to justify the so-called dictatorship of the proletariat after 1949. The doctrine gained new urgency in the 1960s when Mao declared that "class struggle must be talked about every year, every month, and every day.

   
 "Lin Zhao scoffed at this, " I do not ever believe that, in such a vast living space that God has prepared for us, there is any need for humanity to engage in a life-and-death struggle." The CCP dictatorship was but a modern form of "tyranny and slavery," she wrote in her letter to the party's propagandists. as long as there are people who are still enslaved, not only are the enslaved not free, those who enslave others are likewise not free!" Those seeking to end communist rule in China must likewise not "debase the goal of our struggle into a desire to become different kind of of slave owner," she wrote. "The lofty overall goal of our battle dictates that we cannot simply set a simple transfer of political power - the goal must not and cannot be a simple of transfer of political power!" The end was "political democratization ... to make sure that there will never another emperor in China!"

   "Lin Zhao wrestled with the moral question of whether violence was a justified means to that end. Her Christian faith had hardened her for the fight. At the same time, it also tempered her opposition. She acknowledged the occasional "sparks of humanity" even in those who were at the "most savage center" of Chinese communism. As strenuously as she argued against her imprisonment, against Mao's dictatorship, and for a free society, she was unable to sanction violence to that struggle. "As a Christian, one devoted to freedom and fighting under the Cross. I believe that killing Communists is not the best way to oppose or eliminate communism. She admitted that, had she not "embraced a bit of Christ's spirit," she would have had reason to pledge "bloody revenge against the Chinese Communist Party."

    
  "For her refusal to submit to "thought reform" and her unflagging sacrilege against Mao and his revolution. Lin Shao'a sentence was changed to the death penalty. On April 29, 1968, she was shot under the order issued by the Shanghai Military Control Committee of the People's Liberation Army.She was 36.

    
Lin Zhao died with unfulfilled wishes: having called her mother much grief because of her involvement in politics, she had wanted to make amends by caring for her in her old age. She told her mother in one of her last blood letters, written in November 1967: "When the morning light of freedom in a century of human rights shines upon the vast land of this country, we shall pour out our hearts to each other!" That letter, and her other blood writings were confiscated by the prison and never sent.

  
  She had vowed to make pilgrimage one day to the tomb of America president John F. Kennedy to pay her respects, for he had taught her - in his "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech of 1963 - that freedom is indivisible and that "when one man is enslaved, all are not free...."

George H. Kubeck-

"Communism is a public sector cancer. To kill this cancer, it needs to be outlawed in each country. I believe  it is outlawed in the U.S. because it believes in the violent overthrow of the U.S.A. Communists are masters of deceit and deception; Delenda est.

Chapter 5 - "The Unholy Alliance" p. 76- 79

"The election of Pope Francis was seen by Alinskyite activists a dream come true. "I think that Pope Francis is quite an impressive figure," Al Gore said at UC Berkeley in early 2015....

"Leftists quickly turn up at the Vatican, often invited by one of Pope Francis's closest advisers, the socialist Honduran cardinal Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga. Before the pope's visit to the U.S., a group of left-wing activists from unions and organizations such as the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and PICO National Network (an Alinskyite group founded by the liberal Jesuit father John Baumann) descended on the Vatican to confer with curial members of the U.S. Congress sent Pope Francis a letter, urging him to focus upon politically liberal themes. The leader of this group was Rosa DeLauro, a Catholic who supported abortion rights.

"In 2016, it was revealed by WIKELINKS that the billionaire socialist George Soros bankrolled much of this lobbying....According to leaked documents, Soros's Open Society sought to create a 'critical mass' of American bishops & lay Catholic supportive of pope's priorities.... Hacked emails exposed the depth:

  

  'Pope Francis' first visit to the U.S. in Sep. will include a historic address to Congress, a speech at the United Nations, and a visit to Philadelphia for the "World Meeting of Families." In order to size  this moment, we (Open Society) will support PICO's organizing activities to engage the Pope on economic and racial justice issues, including the Pope's senior advisor, and sending  delegation to visit the Vatican in the spring or summer to allow him to hear directly from low-income Catholics in America.'

"In the emails, the Soros operatives make it explicitly clear that they view Pope Francis a propagandist for their causes"

    'At the end of the day, our visit affirmed an overall strategy: Pope Francis, as a leader of global stature, will challenge the "idolatry of the marketplace" in the U.S. and offer a clarion call to change to those most marginalized....'

"After  meeting, they rejoiced at its success, informing John Podesta, the chairman of Hillary campaign:

' Our visits were dialogues. We conveyed our view that the Pope is a World leader of historical significance.... intend to amplify his remarks so that we have a more profound moral dialogue about policy choices through the election cycle of 2016... that the Pope emphasize - in words and deeds - the need to confront racial hierarchy in the US... As in our breakfast conversation with Cardinal Rodriguez, senior Vatican officials shared profound insights ... an awareness of the moral,,,,, climate in America....

Further disclosures from WIKILINKS confirmed the plotting of Democratic officials to infiltrate the Catholic Church in order to "foment revolution" beneficial to their radical causes. In 2012, in the midst of the Catholic backlash over Obama's contraceptive mandate, John Podesta received a not from Sandy Newman, president of Voices for Progress.

  

  "There needs to be a Catholic Spring, in which Catholics themselves demand an end of a middle ages dictatorship and the beginning of a little democracy and respect for gender equality in the Catholic church," Newman wrote to Podesta.... Podesta replied that the Democrats had set up Catholic front groups to plant those seeds: "We created, 'Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good' to organize for a moment like this. But I think it lacks the leadership for a moment like this. Likewise 'Catholics United.' "Like most Spring moments, I think this one will have to be bottom up."  Podesta was wrong... the following year Francis rose to the papacy and began politicizing the Church in the exact manner that the progressives had envisioned. Indeed, Podesta would later encourage Hillary Clinton to enlist the pope's leftism in her campaign....

"Podesta and his aides also discussed how they could exploit Pope Francis's support for Obama Iran deal.... Podesta was sent a report in which Christopher Hale of Catholics in 'Alliance for the Common Good' proposes getting bishops and cardinals to lean on senators temporizing about the deal...."

Chapter 4 - The Liberal Jesuit from Latin America - p. 68-72

(The next 3 book reports are sadly most shocking, informative and destructive to the Vatican and U..S. Catholic Church. This will also be letter # 9 to Pope Francis and Bishop Kevin Vann.)

"As Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Bergoglio was often criticized for his Jesuitical opaqueness at the service of modernist incrementalism. Argentinian journalist Elizabetta Pique has reported that Vatican officials under Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI saw Bergoglio as "not being orthodox enough" and didn't trust his recommendations for bishops....

"As archbishop, Bergoglio surrounded himself with liberal advisers, one of whom was Victor Manuel Fernandez, a theology professor at the Catholic University in Buenos Aires. Fernandez was famous for his flakiness, writing such books as "Heal Me with Your Mouth: The Art of Kissing." A defender of situation ethics, Fernandez criticized Pope John Paul II for his opposition to relativism's denial of intrinsically evil acts.... Fernandez's friendship with Pope Francis has contributed to the chaos at the Vatican. Fernandez made news by attacking the head of the congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, Cardinal Gerhard Muller....

A Lax Archbishop

"Pro-family activists complained that Bergoglio wouldn't lift a finger to help them protest the cultural relativism of the Argentine legislature. In fact, he would discourage them from holding protests. "Bergoglio shock[ed] Rome on the pastoral level by his intolerance of the obsessive strictures of some clergy on the subject of sexual ethics." she reported....

"Bergoglio preferred to play the prototypical "cool" priest of the post-Vatican II era and the liberal Jesuit order. He didn't like formal titles and musty traditions (he once referred to them as a "dictatorship of the church", would try to impress the worldly with stories about his past as a "bouncer," and would chuckle at the mischief of others. According to his sister, Bergoglio "taught swear words" to her son, which resulted in the boy swearing during one of his sermons at an "important mass." After Mass, Jorge came to us and could not stop laughing," she said.

"Above all, he sought to cultivate an image of humility. To this day, priests chuckle at the lengths to which he would go to foster that image.... "Father Jorge," recalled Argentine Catholics, was also happy to be seen presiding over "tango" and Pinocchio masses. He had a decidedly casual approach to Church discipline.... "He explicity permitted a homosexual couple to adopt a child. He kept in touch with priests who were expelled from the official church because they gotten married," said the liberation theologian Leonard Boff."

"Advocates for abused children with the Church saw Bergoglio as similar to other bishops in his laxity and negligence. BishopAccountability.org has done a study of his record as archbishop of Buenos Aires and found it to be dismal.... In his many homilies and statements (archived on Buenos Aires archdiocesan website) he attacked government corruption, wealth inequities, and human sex trafficking, but he said nothing about sexual violence by priests....

"Begoglio"s implication, that he handled no abusive priests, is implausible. Buenos Aires is Argentive's largest diocese, and Bergoglio was one of its top executives from 1992 to 2013 - a period when tens of thousands of victims worldwide reported their abuse to the Church. Based on data disclosed in dioceses in the U.S. and Europe, we estimate conservatively that from 1950 to 2013, more than 100 Buenos Aires archdiocesan priests offended against children and that dozens of them were known to archdiocesan supervisors, including Bergoglio.

"Since assuming the papacy, Bergoglio has made numerous statements about sexual abuse, but he continues to show a blind spot on the issue, as Vatican correspondent John Allen has reported.

    "Pope Francis' response to the sexual abuse mess in the Church has come under mounting fire. Though the merits of any particular item in the bill of indictment may be debated, the over-all effect has been to seed doubt as to whether the fight against child abuse is truly a priority for pontiff."...G. Kubeck
