<h2 class="wp-block-heading">By Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò</h2>



<p><strong>The Media Narrative</strong></p>



<div class="vc_empty_space"   style="height: 32px"><span class="vc_empty_space_inner"></span></div>
	<div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element " >
		<div class="wpb_wrapper">
			
		</div>
	</div>

<span class="eltdf-dropcaps eltdf-normal" >
	I</span>f we look at what is happening in<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/03/technology/ukraine-war-misinfo.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Ukraine</a>, without being misled by the gross falsifications of the mainstream media, we realize that respect for each other’s rights has been completely ignored; indeed, we have the impression that the Biden Administration, NATO and the European Union deliberately want to maintain a situation of obvious imbalance, precisely to make impossible any attempt at a peaceful resolution of the Ukrainian crisis, provoking the Russian Federation to trigger a conflict. Herein lies the seriousness of the problem. This is the trap set for both Russia and Ukraine, using both of them to enable the globalist elite to carry out its criminal plan.</p>



<p>It should not surprise us that pluralism and freedom of speech, so praised in countries that claim to be democratic, are daily disavowed by censorship and intolerance towards opinions not aligned with the official narrative. Manipulations of this kind have become the norm during the so-called pandemic.</p>



<p>T<strong>he Biden’s’ conflict of interest in Ukraine</strong></p>



<p>Another issue that we tend not to analyze in depth is that related to Burisma, an oil and gas company operating on the Ukrainian market since 2002. Recall that “during the American presidency of Barack Obama (from 2009 to 2017) his right hand man with a “delegation” to handle international politics was Joe Biden, and it is since then that the “protection’ offered by the Democrat US leader was given to Ukrainian nationalists, a line that created the irreconcilable disagreement between <a href="https://news.am/eng/news/698671.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kiev and Moscow</a>.</p>



<p><strong>The Ukrainian war in the plans of the NWO</strong></p>



<p>The censorship being imposed against Russian broadcasters is clearly aimed at preventing the official narrative from being disproven by the facts. It is evident that the Ukrainian people, beyond the issues that diplomacy can resolve, are victims of the same global coup d’état being carried out by supranational powers that intend, not peace between nations, but rather the establishment of the tyranny of the New World Order. Just a few days ago, Ukrainian parliamentarian <a href="https://www.thenational.scot/news/19956727.will-defend-ukraine-long-needed-says-ukrainian-mp-kira-rudik/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kira Rudik</a> told Fox News, while holding a kalashnikov: “We know that we are not only fighting for Ukraine, but also for the New World Order.” </p>



<p><strong>Ukraine is the latest victim of accomplished executioners</strong></p>



<p>The Russian-Ukrainian crisis did not suddenly erupt a month ago. It has been prepared and fomented for a long time, certainly <a href="https://www.cfr.org/global-conflict-tracker/conflict/conflict-ukraine" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">beginning with the 2014</a> white coup that was desired by the American deep state in an anti-Russian key. This is demonstrated, among other incontestable facts, by the training of the Azov Battalion by the CIA “to kill Russians”, with the CIA forcing the revocation of the amendment banning aid to the battalion made by Congress in 2015.</p>



<p>An<strong> appeal to the Third Rome</strong></p>



<p>For Russia too, this conflict is a trap. This is because it would fulfill the dream of the American deep state to definitively oust Russia from the European context in its commercial and cultural relations, pushing it into the arms of China, perhaps with the hope that the dictatorship in Beijing can persuade the Russians to accept the system of social credit and other aspects of the Great Reset that thus far Russia has been able to avoid, at least in part.</p>



<p>The world crisis with which the dissolution of traditional society is being prepared has also involved the Catholic Church, whose Hierarchy is held hostage by apostates who are courtiers of power. There was a time in which Popes and Prelates confronted Kings without concern for human respect, because they knew they spoke with the voice of Jesus Christ, the King of kings. The Rome of the Caesars and Popes is now deserted and silent, just as for centuries the Second Rome of Constantinople has also been silent.</p>



<p><strong>Final Considerations</strong></p>



<p>May Holy Lent lead all Christians to ask pardon from the Divine Majesty for the sins of those who trample His Holy Law. May penance and fasting move the Lord God to mercy.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Paradoxical Consistency of Vain Actions</strong></h3>

<span class="eltdf-dropcaps eltdf-normal" >
	E</span>ven thou<em> </em><a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="http://www.thisdayinquotes.com/2011/01/eternal-vigilance-is-price-of-liberty.html" target="_blank"><em>&#8220;Eternal vigilance is the price of libert</em>y”</a> we have been asleep for a long, long time. We have deferred authority to guard our freedoms to compromised and malevolent agents that have done their biddings.</p>



<p>While most of us have already decided what COVID-19 is and how we trust the narrative that media and governments have given us. Still a few basic questions linger unanswered for almost a year. Our life and destiny on Roatan is directly connected to events happening in US and Europe. With Christmas “cancelled” in greater part of the western world we can at least take a time to reflect on how we got here.</p>



<p><strong>Where is “patient zero” and why is no one asking about him?</strong><br>The notoriously lying Chinese authorities originally reported that the first Coronavirus case took place on 31 December, 2019 near animal market in Wuhan. At a later one point Wuhan Institute of Virology scientist Huang Yanling was speculated to be<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/12476233/patient-zero-scientist-wuhan-lab/" target="_blank"> patient zero</a>, before she disappeared amidst silence from authorities and media. In every modern epidemic: from Spanish flu to AIDS authorities have found their patient zero, but in case of COVID-19 no one seems to bother looking.</p>



<p><strong>Why did CIA, NSA, etc not tell us how the virus originated so we could sleep better at night?</strong> <br>It can be a bit frustrating not knowing if the COVID-19 originated in a bat soup, was an accidental release from a <strong>Wuhan Institute of Virology</strong>, or was spread on purpose. Without knowing the circumstances of the COVID-19 origins we can’t really make any coherent strategies how to prevent appearance of subsequent COVIDS. The two dozen <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/495449-intelligence-agency-confirms-investigation-into-origins-of" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">“US security agencies,”</a> that didn’t keep us safe in the first place nor seem to care to keep us free from anxiety.</p>



<p><strong>Why no one did or insisted on cost benefit analysis of “saving lives” versus shutting down business, schools and churches?</strong> <br>Any sizable business or organization that wants to survive will do a profit-loss analysis before shutting down their operation at a large scale. That is just pure logic. Yet with the exception of Sweden, Belarus, <a href="https://vaccineimpact.com/2020/taiwan-no-lockdowns-no-closed-businesses-non-who-member-and-relatively-unaffected-by-covid-19/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Taiwan</a> and South Dakota vast majority of governments have not done so. Spikes in untreated cancers and heart disease, <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2020/10/09/national/social-issues/suicide-mental-health-coronavirus/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">suicides</a> and drug overdose have outnumbered the deaths from COVID-19. These deaths of misery and neglect occur often not in the “over 60 COVID vulnerable” but amongst the most productive segment of the population: people in their 20s, 30s and 40s.</p>



<p><strong>Why after more than a year can’t the US get a congressional commission to tell us the cause of appearance of COVID-19 and its spread?</strong> <br>A week after JFK was assassinated Warren Commission was created to prove to the American public that a lone gunman killed the US president. Ten weeks after 9/11 a commission was established that assured the Americans that the al-Qaida hijackers were responsible of flying a commercial airplane into the Pentagon’s accounting office. Now over a year after the COVID-19 outbreak there is no will for<a href="https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2020/12/01/america-needs-a-COVID-19-commission/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2020/12/01/america-needs-a-COVID-19-commission/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> establishing a commission</a> to determine who is to blame.</p>



<p><strong>If so many pharmaceutical companies can develop a “great vaccine” in 10 month, why were the same companies taking 10-15 years to develop other vaccines in the first place?</strong> <br>Developing good, reliable safe vaccines is not easy and takes time. That time is measured in years and sometimes decades and the procedures of creating helpful and profitable vaccines have been worked for over a century. When a dozen pharmaceutical companies in countries from China, Russia and USA develop a COVID-19 in <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/31/us/coronavirus-vaccine-timetable-concerns-experts-invs/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">10 months instead of 10 years</a> mistakes will inevitably be made and will have long lasting consequences.</p>



<p><strong>Whom do I sue when I suffer serious negative consequences of a vaccine?</strong> <br>After their <a href="https://www.rt.com/news/496801-pharma-not-accountable-vaccine-effect/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">indemnity deals</a> with many governments the pharmaceutical companies have no interest in providing a safe COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine manufacturers will not suffer a financial risk when their vaccines will do harm. And yes, practically all vaccines have a percentage of patients with serious side effects.</p>



<p><strong>If there are multiple strains of Coivid-19, do we have to shelter in place another 10 months to have new vaccines developed?</strong> <br>Flue and COVID <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9068223/Italy-fourth-country-spot-mutated-Covid-virus-British-traveller.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">viruses mutate</a> &#8211; that is their nature. Therefore vaccines for one strain of a virus are useless or at least not very useful for other ones.</p>



<p><strong>Who decided that value of “life at all cost” outweighs “right to live free?”</strong> <br><a href="https://townhall.com/columnists/derekhunter/2019/06/06/have-we-forgotten-the-sacrifice-of-dday-n2547594" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">In World War II we were told to sacrifice</a>, and die so our families and foreign lands could be free. Seventy millions people died in World War II fighting for freedom. It’s perplexing that only 80 years later we are told we need to sacrifice or basic freedoms – freedom of expression, worship, travel “not to even risk getting exposed” to COVID-19.</p>



<p><strong>Why governments wouldn’t allow or even promote for its citizens to have ample access to spiritual nourishment and churches?</strong> <br>For millennia churches have adapted to functioning in times of plagues much more deadly than COVID-19:<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2020/04/03/how-catholic-church-adapted-during-black-plague" target="_blank"> Black Plague</a>, typhus S and Spanish flu. In times of crisis many people become closer to God and rediscover their faith. As a consequence they become stronger, better people. This is not being allowed to happen during the COVID-19 restrictions. <em>“We see heads of nations and religious leaders pandering to this suicide of Western culture and its Christian soul, while the fundamental rights of citizens and believers are denied in the name of a health,”</em> <a href="https://taylormarshall.com/2020/10/archbishop-viganos-open-letter-president-trump-great-reset.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">wrote archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.</a></p>

<p>The arrival of COVID-19 to Roatan is a result of inflexible, one-size-fits-all health management strategies by Honduras National Risk Management System [Sistema Nacional de Gestión de Riesgos &#8211; SINAGER] and Roatan municipal governments inaction and incompetence. <em>“<a href="http://www.copeco.gob.hn/?q=ley-sinager">SINAGER</a> from the mainland, they are running Honduras,”</em> said Dr. Raymond Cherington heads the committee helping of bringing some 600 Roatanians stranded on the mainland that have been trying to come back.</p>



<p>While Utila Municipality has repatriated 19 of their own, Municipal Roatan government were unable to repatriate desperate islanders stuck on the mainland. <em>“Once they go to quarantine, they have a hope for a way home,”</em> said Junior Williams, from Utila’s Search and Rescue. <em>“My advice to Roatan authorities is to move swiftly. It’s better than to have them sneak back in.”</em></p>



<p>Even foreign cruise ship companies managed to navigate SINAGERS bureaucracy and in four different ship arrivals, repatriated 72 island workers dropping them off at the Roatan’s cruise ship docks between May 15 and May 26.</p>



<p>While many wish otherwise, on Roatan where municipal authorities are continually unable to manage garbage dumps, desalination plant, it is hardly surprising that managing a health emergency has proven exceedingly difficult. During the COVID-19 crisis voices of “supporting government officials” and “government is doing a great job” created a false sense of fallowing the only right path. The voices of dissent were silenced, punished or ridiculed. <br>This downward spiral will likely continue.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>The exaggeratedly fear of death based on bad science, and bad health policy decisions by Honduran government has brought Roatan economic misery, depression and soaring crime.</p></blockquote>



<p>As forced house arrests of healthy citizens near three months, crime is escalating; after the robbery of two women leaving a restaurant at the entrance near <a href="https://www.google.hn/maps/place/Palmetto+Bay+Roatan/@16.3639196,-86.4870432,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x33bb049a105d8c31?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjBoPTdhL7qAhUCUt8KHRq5CTkQ_BIwFHoECBIQCA">Palmetto.</a><em> “I (…) stopped at the police shack to ask it there were any updates regarding the recent robbery that occurred this afternoon (…)  The municipality policeman I talked to had no idea what I was talking about.  The second policeman was too busy texting on his phone to engage in any discussion”</em> said Gary Chamer, a Roatan businessman, at his attempt to inquire about an armed robbery that took place just a few hundred meters from the police shack.</p>



<p>The island wide surveillance system has been placed with watchtowers and security cameras near major road intersections. Sadly, it is becoming painfully obvious that the police are there not to stop any crime on the citizen, but make sure citizens obey what they are told, regardless of the logic, or consequences.</p>



<p>There is increasing number of intellectuals and scientists seeing the pre-planned agenda which is forced upon the population with virus only serves as pretext and distraction. </p>



<pre class="wp-block-preformatted"><code>“We have a reason to believe, on the basis of official data on the incidence of the epidemic as related to the number of deaths, that there are powers interested in creating panic among the world’s population with the sole aim of permanently imposing unacceptable forms of restriction on freedoms, of controlling people and of tracking their movements. (…) A disturbing prelude to the realization of a&nbsp;world government beyond all control.”</code> </pre>



<p>Wrote Archbishop <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlo_Maria_Vigan%C3%B2">Carlo Maria Viganò</a> in a May 7appeal, signed by several Catholic cardinals, bishops and thousands of professionals.</p>



<p>In a global operation of escalating government control of individuals, top down business takeover and eliminating freedoms Roatan is a side story to a side story. The flooding of fear reporting and suppression of dissenting voices has frighten people who are now desperate enough to accept any solution giving them a feeling that they recaptured some sense of normality. Unfortunately those sacrificing freedom for security will be left with neither.</p>
