Is the Pope facing International Criminal Prosecution?
The ROOD Awakening ^ | Feb. 15, 2013 | Michael Rood

Posted on 02/16/2013 5:20:42 PM PST by George Varnum

Pope Benedict XVI has allegedly applied to the President of the Republic of Italy for immunity from arrest and prosecution following a diplomatic statement of intent to issue an arrest warrant for him.

Apparently an unidentified EU country wants to prosecute him for various charges related to ongoing child abuse scandals.

You have to drag the time slider a half hour to the right to start the video off.

Pay attention to the 0:52:20 mark and beyond for the letter Rood reads about the Pope possibly facing arrest and prosecution for "crimes against humanity" re. his alleged promotion of institutionalized priestly child rape.

This is the first and only report I have seen about this development, so can't vouch for it's authenticity.

Rood is a pretty controversial character to be sure, but I can't imagine that he would fabricate something of this potential magnitude.

Does anyone else have any intel about this?

If true it would be very series indeedie (not to mention embarrassing) for the RCC, I would think.

If you are RCC I would not suggest watching anything beyond the letter, as he puts on a miter and goes off on a diatribe about the Papacy, Priesthood, Catholic traditions and other subjects pretty much guaranteed to offend you.

In about two to three months I can use about a yard or two of this for my garden.

There is a group calling itself the “International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State” (ITCCS) supposedly out of Brussels that is claiming this. I personally think it’s a bunch of B.S.

Check out:

All he has to do is join the Democrat party and he’ll get a pass.

I have to wonder if his controversial opposition (from what I’ve read anyway) to the homosexual agenda and the abortion industry might have put him into the PC / NWO Elite’s bomb sights?

When you cross that gang, they want to hurt you - and they don’t much care who you are.

Up here in Maine we have some creative speculation going on as to who the replacement Pope might be:

“What Would You Do, If Obama Succeeds Benedict XVI as the Next Pope?”
http://www.asmainegoes.com/content/what-would-you-do-if-obama-succeeds-benedict-xvi-next-pope

“Qualified”??? He don’t need no steenkin’ “Qualifications”!
If George Soros and the Saudi Prince wants Obama to be the next Pope, then by Beelzebub, he will be!

This has been going on for some time - it’s some EU group, although I don’t believe it’s a country per se - that is doing this. When BXVI visited England a year or so ago, there was a British group trying to have him arrested on an EU charge (of “homophobia,” IIRC).

Re #12: For the same reason I’d waltz into an Irish Pub singing “God Save the Queen” I suppose.

When someone with ADD gets bored, anything is apt to happen... and I think I forgot my Ritalin this morning.

Guys like me don’t usually live to be as old as I am.

You have to ask? Why does the KKK burn crosses?

Tragic, but I suppose I should not be surprised. Those who care about the Catholic Church are going to need to put in some overtime.
