This is starting to not be funny anymore.
Ratzinger non poté “né vendere né comprare” Ratzinger he could "neither sell nor buy" Maurizio Blondet
Roughly translated by Google:
"Few know what SWIFT (the acronym stands for Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) is: in theory, is a global "clearing house", uniting 10,500 banks in 215 countries. In fact, is the most occult and sole center of American-globalist financial power, a bastion of blackmail on which the hegemony of the dollar, the most powerful means of political and economic espionage (to the detriment especially for us Europeans) and the means by which the most feared global finance breaks the legs of states that do not obey. …

"'When a bank or territory is excluded from the system, as it did in the case of the Vatican in the days before the resignation of Benedict XVI in February 2013, all transactions are blocked. Without waiting for the election of Pope Bergoglio, the Swift system has been unlocked the announcement of the resignation of Benedict XVI.
"'There was a blackmail come from who knows where, through SWIFT, exercised on Benedict XVI. The underlying reasons for this story have not been clarified, but it is clear that SWIFT has intervened directly in the management of affairs of the Church.'
"This explains and justifies the unprecedented resignation of Ratzinger, that many of us have been able to exchange for an act of cowardice; the Church was treated as a state 'terrorist', but worse — because note that the dozen banks falling into the hands of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria 'are not excluded from SWIFT' and continue to be able to make international transactions — and the Vatican finances could no longer pay the nunciature, to convey transport missions — in fact, the same ATM of Vatican City had been blocked.
The Church of Benedict could not 'neither sell nor buy'; its own economic life was counted in hours."
Previews of coming attractions.
“That no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name” (Rev 13:17).
“The Church of Benedict could not ‘neither sell nor buy’; its own economic life was counted in hours.”
Why am I thinking ‘Mark of The Beast’? Just sayin’
Great minds etc.

Military officer and Booz Allen Hamilton employee in Psychological Warfare during Gulf War 2 under GW Bush Scott Bennett turned whistleblower when he discovered the west (CIA) is funding terrorism (Al Queda/ISIS) through Union Bank of Switzerland (UBS) and HSBC. Imprisoned for 36 months for wearing his uniform on base (w/out being asked to) and for filling out his housing form carelessly. While there he met Brad Berkenfeld (UBS whistleblower of the same reason - funding of terrorists thru 20,000+ UBS accounts). Berkenfeld was later paid 104 million dollars and is now in hiding. Hastings and Snowden are part of this story:

He contacted almost every member of congress, many generals in the military as well as most of the people at every nows organization from MSNBC, CNN to Fox and other news organizations including a 2 hour meeting with Michael Isikoff. Never heard back from anyone, except a form letter from Rand Paul. The US is funding Al Queda and ISIS, and no one cares?!?

I find it hard to believe Ratzinger could have done anything to be blackmailed over. Other popes, yes. Not him.
That was my first thought though I did not know the citation.

You didn’t read the article. It wasn’t blackmail per se, it was simple extortion. The Vatican is owned by whoever has the sayso about SWIFT actions and policies- Obama?
This is more evidence that the USA is a functioning world empire. Rome was a functioning empire for a long time before it had an Emperor.
Yeah, just ask any IT person who has had to deal with programming for SWIFT codes. :)
On June 28 this year, Italian police arrested a silver-haired priest, Monsignor Nunzio Scarano, in Rome. The cleric, nicknamed Monsignor Cinquecento after the €500 bills he habitually carried around with him, was charged with fraud and corruption, together with a former secret service agent and a financial broker. All three were suspected of attempting to smuggle €20m by private plane across the border from Switzerland.It looks like accusations of facilitating money-laundering may have led to the Vatican being disconnected from SWIFT for a while.Prosecutors alleged that the priest, a former banker, was using the Institute for Religious Works – the formal name for the Vatican’s bank – to move money for businessmen based in the Naples region, widely regarded in Italy as a haven of organised crime. Worse still, Scarano (who, together with the other men, has denied any wrongdoing) had until only a month earlier been head of the accounting department at the Administration of the Patrimony of the Apostolic See, the treasury of the Vatican.

The reforms now under way at the Vatican have come about in part because of the pressure brought to bear by banks such as Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan and UniCredit, all of which found themselves in the sights of regulators because of their business relationships with the Holy See. About three dozen banks, including some of the world’s biggest financial institutions, were for years “correspondent” banks to the Vatican, providing services when the pope’s business went beyond the boundaries of Vatican City. As with other institutional clients, the banks gave the Vatican access to foreign financial markets. Correspondent banks moved as much as €2bn a year from the Vatican’s bank to other accounts across the globe, according to a Vatican spokesman. It was the bankers’ fear of being tarnished by their links with the Vatican bank after the credit crisis – and fears of fines from emboldened regulators – that led them to take steps that forced it to clean up its act.

At any rate we see the whole RATS’ nest ‘elected’ in Western .govs in the same ~5yr time frame and what poisonous fruit their wicked trees are bearing now: catastrophe for Western Ideals and civilization, with nobody willing to do anything about SWIFT.
Why is this posted in “Religion”. It ought to be in breaking news!

Probably because it’s incoherent trash.
Obama tried this with Russia too. Russia’s response was to set up a competitor to Swift. The Vatican can move onto it.
Wouldn’t that be extortion, not blackmail?
