don Ricossa (IMBC): L'invalidità della "canonizzazione" of Paul VI (Montini)
by

Image results for Don Francesco RicossaWe read the statement from the Society of Saint Pius “canonization” of Montini is valid or not. We have listened to this homily and the invalidity appears obvious in the clear exposition of the Catholic argument. We remain convinced that the solution cannot be the Cassiciacum Thesis, but in this homily we find the immutable Magisterium of the Church.

We highlight the homily of Don Francesco Ricossa on the so-called "canonization" of Paul VI, held in the church of San Luigi Gonzaga in Albarea (FE) il 14 October 2018:

Encyclical Quarto Abeunte Saeculo di Leo XIII, 16/7/1892
To the Venerable Brother Archbishops and Bishops of Spain, of Italy and the Americas.
Venerable Brothers, health and Apostolic Blessing.
At the end of the fourth century from the day in which, God wishes, a Ligurian man landed, first of all, beyond the Atlantic Ocean to unknown shores, the people are happy to celebrate the memory of that fact with feelings of gratitude, and to exalt the author. Certainly it would not be easy to find a more worthy reason than this to excite souls and arouse enthusiasm. Indeed, the undertaking itself is the greatest and most marvelous of any that has ever been seen in the order of human affairs: and the one who brought it to completion is comparable only to a few of those who were great in terms of spirit and height of ingenuity.. A new world arose thanks to him from the unexplored womb of the Ocean: hundreds of thousands of creatures came from oblivion and darkness to integrate the human family; from barbarism they were led to meekness and civilization: and what is infinitely more important, as lost as they were, they were regenerated to eternal life thanks to the participation in the goods that Jesus Christ provided.

How human she is

Reporting of Federici Studies Center

In the state of Israel, which defines itself as “exclusively Jewish” (law passed in the Knesset on 19/7/2018), after much opposition and hesitation, non-Jews were granted a prayer space at Tel Aviv airport (albeit with discreet signage to avoid acts of vandalism by Orthodox Jews).
Prayer rooms for Christians and Muslims at Tel Aviv airport
In a new wing of the Terminal 3 At the Israeli international airport, two separate rooms have been opened for the prayer of non-Jews
Two hands open in the gesture of prayer, above a writing in Hebrew, in Arabic and English. In the new E wing of the Terminal 3 at Ben Gurion airport - Israel's international airport - a simple and non-denominational sign has been indicating the "prayer rooms" for a few weeks. Simple environments, opened without too much fuss, but which mark an important gesture: the debut of a public space designed for the spiritual life of non-Jews in one of the busiest environments in Israel.
There was obviously already a synagogue at Ben Gurion airport, as in all the most important Israeli meeting places. And it was already since 2006 that the airport authority had talked about the idea of ​​opening a space for non-Jewish prayer in the new Terminal, also due to the fact that Muslims and Christians together represent almost the 20% of the Israeli population and frequent the airport like everyone else. However, this project was lost in the maze of bureaucracy, until a singular accident relaunched the need for it: In the 2015 on the day of Simchat Torah – a Jewish holiday, during which religious Jews do not travel – a family of Muslim Turks in transit from the airport mistook the completely empty synagogue for a mosque and started praying there, even using tallits (the prayer cloaks of the Jewish tradition) like carpets. When some passerby noticed it and pointed it out to him, the family immediately interrupted their prayer and apologized, thus showing that he was in good faith and did not have any provocative intent. But the images were still too tasty not to circulate on social media.

The Near East under an evil star

Image results for Near East under bad starsReporting of Federici Studies Center

The oraprosiria blog reported an interesting article to better understand the background of the war on Syria.
'Greater Israel': the war on Syria as part of the process of Israeli territorial expansion.
The following document relating to the training of “Greater Israel” constitutes the cornerstone of powerful Zionist factions within the current Netanyahu government, of the Likud party, as well as within the Israeli military and intelligence establishment .
President Donald Trump has bluntly confirmed his support for Israel's illegal settlements (including his opposition to the resolution 2334 of the United Nations Security Council, relating to the illegality of Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank). Furthermore, moving the US embassy to Jerusalem and allowing the expansion of Israeli settlements in the occupied territories and beyond, the president of the United States provided de facto approval of the project “Greater Israel” (Greater Israel) as formulated under the Yinon Plan.
Keep in mind: this project is not strictly a Zionist project for the Middle East, it is an integral part of United States foreign policy, that is, Washington's intent to fracture and balkanize the Middle East. Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital is aimed at sparking political instability across the region.
According to the founding father of Zionism Theodore Herzl, “the area of ​​the Jewish state extends: “From the stream of Egypt to the Euphrates". According to Rabbi Fischmann, “The Promised Land extends from the river of Egypt (the Nile) up to the Euphrates, including parts of Syria and Lebanon”.

Il 18 September marks the anniversary of the battle fought in 1860 between Loreto and Castelfidardo, which saw the papal army and the Sardinian army pitted against each other, now Italian. We remember the pontifical heroes who sacrificed themselves for the papal cause with moving quotes taken from Mons' four-volume work. Alberto Canestrari,: “The soul of Pius IX as it revealed itself and was understood by the Saints” (Marino, Santa Lucia typography, 1966). Mons. Canestri drew the information from the book of the Marquis Anatole de Ségur: “The Martyrs of Castelfidardo” (Paris 1861).
DEAD AFTER THE BATTLE.
The survivors in a slower pang to die in the lands that the Pope was losing. After some names of those fallen on the battlefield, the illustrious collector of the anthologies of these Martyrs went on to edify the readers with the marvelous examples of fortitude that some of those who did not immediately extinguish in the silence of death offered, with the voice of blood they were able to make the greatness of their souls felt on the hard beds for a few more days, altar of the most tormenting consummation of their holocaust.

Vienna, 12 September 1683 – la Cristianità respinge l'invasione islamica
by

Image results for the Battle of ViennaReporting of Federici Studies Center

The Battle of Vienna, In the year of the Lord 1683
The political-military scenario in the second half of the seventeenth century – rather troubled century – appears dark and full of uncertainties. The Thirty Years' War (1618-1648), devastating religious war, it was also a political-military confrontation between the French ruling House of Bourbon and that of the Habsburgs. The intent was to remove the Habsburgs' hegemony over Germany, which derived from their imperial authority. To achieve this goal Armand du Plessis, better known as Cardinal Richelieu (1585-1642), inaugurating a policy based on mere national interest to the detriment of a European and Catholic vision, allied himself with the Protestant princes. The Treaties of Westphalia of 1648 sanctioned the definitive weakening of the Holy Roman Empire. That's how it is about Germany, devastated, divided between Catholics and Protestants and politically separated, the hegemony of the king of France is established, Louis XIV (1638-1715). He does not hesitate to even seek the alliance of the Ottoman Empire, completely opposed to every Christian and European ideal. At the end of the century, therefore, Europe was prostrate, divided within itself between religious factions and dynastic struggles, with an economic and demographic crisis resulting from the war, which made her more vulnerable than ever.
The Islamic offensive
The Ottoman Empire, which had conquered the Balkan countries up to the Hungarian plain, on August 1st 1664 it had been temporarily blocked by the imperial armies led by Raimondo Montecuccoli (1609-1680) in the Battle of San Gottardo, in Hungary. Shortly after though, under the strategic guidance of the Grand Vizier Qara Mustafā (1634-1683), the offensive resumes, paradoxically encouraged by Louis XIV and his casual anti-Habsburg policy. There could not have been a more favorable moment for a victorious campaign and now the heart of Europe was within the reach of the Ottoman armies. Almost isolated, only the Republic of Venice prevents the Turks from gaining dominion in the Aegean, in Greece and Dalmatia. However, it was now an unequal struggle, Indeed, culminated in the loss of Candia in 1669, despite the heroic deeds of Francesco Morosini (1618-1694). In the 1672 in Podolia – a part of present-day Ukraine – is taken from Poland and in January of 1683, ad Istanbul, the Ottoman armies head towards Hungary. It is an immense army that is marching towards the heart of Europe, under the leadership of Qara Mustafā and Muhammad IV (1641-1692). The design they attempted to create was that of a sort of “greater European and Muslim Türkiye” of which Vienna was to be the future capital; a city which in turn would have been a bridgehead towards the rest of Europe, besieged and destined for defeat. The few remaining Imperial forces – reinforced by the Hungarian militias led by Duke Charles V of Lorraine (1643-1690) – they tried in vain to resist. The great leader in the service of the Habsburgs took command, although recovering from a very serious illness, from which – he said to himself – the prayers of a Capuchin father had saved him, known to many as Father Marco da Aviano. Father Marco had been sent by Pope Innocent XI to the Emperor to plead the cause of the anti-Turkish crusade. Father Marco's first act was to ask that the image of the Mother of God be shown on all imperial insignia. Since then, Austrian military flags will always carry the effigy of the Madonna for the next two and a half centuries. Only Adolf Hitler had them removed after his rise to power.
