MOSSAD WARNS OF ATTACK ON VATICAN -- YEAH -- FROM THEM

THE TIMES: FOREIGN NEWS: 'Mossad' warns of attack on Vatican

http://www.the-times.co.uk/news/pages/tim/2000/04/17/timfgneur01001.html

Comments from Agent 001 -- There are a few things in the following article that you better pay close attention to -- here is the first one:

"The Pope, who is nearly 80, is to travel to the shrine of Fatima in Portugal next month to give thanks to the Virgin Mary for saving his life on May 13, 1981 - the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima - when he was wounded in an attempted assassination. "

RMNews has been warning of some kind of staged event at Fatima -- Remember -- the Pope was wounded on May 13th -- He has credited Mother Mary with saving his life. Will there be an assassination by an Islamic terrorist while the Pope is at Fatima? If so, why would the Islamic world want to assassinate the Pope? During the recent visit to the Holy Lands, he all but made peace with Islam. Why would Islamics have any reason to kill him? unless someone wants to start a Holy Johad (INSIDE JOKE)-- Could someone be setting up the Islamic world to take the blame for the assassination of the Pope or the destruction of the Vatican -- The destruction of the Vatican fits in with Nostradamus's prediction.

Here is the second part from the article that is important:

"Diplomats said that it (the attack) would be intended to disrupt the Middle East peace process and overshadow the Pope's triumph in the Holy Land, when he not only altered Jewish perceptions of the Church but also backed the moderate Palestinian leadership of Yassir Arafat and endorsed the Palestinian right to a homeland. "

RMAgent 001 --- The pope was embraced by the Islamic world -- expecially Arafat -- he was condemned by extremist Israelis who said he did not admit his part in WWII -- or denounce the holocause as vehemently as he should -- Now here is the clincher:

"The Vatican is facing embarrassment over the prospect of Jörg Haider, the Austrian far-Right leader, standing next to the Pope when the pontiff blesses a Christmas tree in St Peter's Square to be donated by the region of Carinthia, of which Herr Haider is governor. The square's tree is usually donated by one of the countries or regions of Europe with a sizeable Catholic population. Two years ago, Carinthia was selected for 2000. "

Why was this information put in this article? It has nothing to do with an Islamic attack on the Pope or the Vatican --- as RMNews always says -- "read between the lines" and figure out what the writer of this article is trying to tell you. Where is the attack coming from? Who hates the Pope and Jorge Haider? Who equates them as one? You're smart -- you can get this one.

'Mossad' warns of attack on Vatican

FROM RICHARD OWEN IN ROME

AS the Pope led Palm Sunday ceremonies before 100,000 people in St Peter's Square yesterday, police were on high alert after a warning to Italy and the Vatican that there could be an "Islamic terrorist attack" on him over the Easter period.

The tip-off is said to have come from Mossad, the Israeli security service. The exchange of intelligence is said to be one of the first fruits of the warmer relationship between the Holy See and Israel after the Pope's trip to the Holy Land.

As part of tightened security measures, all those entering St Peter's Square must now pass through one of 35 metal detectors placed between its magnificent 17th-century marble columns. Police said that the detectors would be used whenever the Pope was inside the basilica or in the square. Hidden video surveillance cameras have been installed and the number of plainclothes police in the square and on surrounding rooftops increased.

Commander Roberto Scigliano, the former chief of police in Brindisi, Catania and Bari - all seen as crime "hot spots" - has been appointed to co-ordinate Italian and Vatican security services at St Peter's.

The Pope, who is nearly 80, is to travel to the shrine of Fatima in Portugal next month to give thanks to the Virgin Mary for saving his life on May 13, 1981 - the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima - when he was wounded in an attempted assassination.

Italian intelligence sources told Il Messaggero, the Rome daily, that terrorists were planning to "strike at the heart of the Catholic Church during the Holy Year". The target was "probably the Pope himself", although other targets were possible, since "what matters is the symbolism of an outrage . . . an attack in or around the Vatican would be enough". Diplomats said that it would be intended to disrupt the Middle East peace process and overshadow the Pope's triumph in the Holy Land, when he not only altered Jewish perceptions of the Church but also backed the moderate Palestinian leadership of Yassir Arafat and endorsed the Palestinian right to a homeland.

The Vatican is facing embarrassment over the prospect of Jörg Haider, the Austrian far-Right leader, standing next to the Pope when the pontiff blesses a Christmas tree in St Peter's Square to be donated by the region of Carinthia, of which Herr Haider is governor. The square's tree is usually donated by one of the countries or regions of Europe with a sizeable Catholic population. Two years ago, Carinthia was selected for 2000.
