Knights Templar: Norway ‘crusader’s’ group explained

In a detailed diary kept by Anders Behring Breivik — the Norwegian man charged with killing at least 94 people in a bombing in Oslo and shooting on a nearby island Friday — the suspect details months of preparations that led up to the attacks.
Breivik also exhaustively references the Knights Templar, which he calls an “international Christian military order,” that “fights” against “Islamic suppression.”
Monday, it was reported that a Mexican drug ring also invoked the obscure Knights Templar.
Who are they?
The Knights Templar’s earliest function in around 1119 was to protect Christian pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land. The armed group soon became known as the most skilled in the battles to reclaim Jerusalem from the Arabs and racked up several successive victories over Muslim forces.
But by 1303, the knights had been forced out of the Holy Land and returned to western Europe. They fled to France, where they were seen as an armed threat by King Philip the Fair, who had many of them tortured and executed. The king had the support of Pope Clement V, who issued a papal bull that made sure the group was disbanded by 1312.
Since then, rumors of the surviving knights have come and gone, including one rumor that the knights could destroy the Catholic church with a single secret they held.
Breivik says the Christian military order was refounded in 2002 in London under the name PCCTS as an armed “anti-Jihad crusader-organization.”
The Templar are recognizable by white tunics with red crosses, a symbol Breivik put on the front page of his “2083: A European Declaration of Independence,” and emblazoned on homemade uniforms featured on his Facebook page.
In his diary, Breivik wrote of his plan of attack: “If you for some reason survive the operation you will be apprehended and arrested. This is the point where most heroic Knights would call it a day. However, this is not the case for a Justiciar Knight. Your arrest will mark the initiation of the propaganda phase.”
Breivik gave himself the ranking of the Justiciar Knight, and said there were up to 80 such “knights” around western Europe, all “completely unknown to our enemies.”
Breivik’s actual membership in the organization has yet to be established.

Scotland Yard called in over Breivik’s claims he met ‘mentor’ in UK

Police attempting to piece together Anders Behring Breivik’s links to far-right groups in the UK and Europe have written to Scotland Yard asking for more officers to help with the investigation.
A specialist unit has been set up in The Hague to trawl through a database of known high-risk, rightwing extremists and assist the Norwegian police as they examine evidence from Breivik’s 1,500-page “manifesto” published online hours before he launched one of the worst mass killings in peacetime Europe.
Rob Wainwright, director of Europol, told the Guardian he had written to the Metropolitan police’s new head of counter-terrorism, Cressida Dick, asking for more officers from Scotland Yard after Breivik boasted of his links to far-right groups in the UK.
“What we’ve seen is an active extremist scene across European countries, including the UK,” said Wainwright. “There are some signs the extreme right have been more active, especially on the internet. They are more sophisticated and using social media to attract younger people.”
There are up to 50 officers already assigned to the specialist unit in The Hague, including a small number of detectives from the UK.
Breivik’s alleged links to the UK emerged in his manifesto, which details his years of meticulous planning prior to Friday’s attacks. The document was signed “Andrew Berwick” (an anglicised version of his name), written entirely in English, and datelined “London, 2011” – although security services and police say there is no further evidence at this stage to suggest it was written in the UK.
In the manuscript Breivik describes his “mentor” as an Englishman he identifies as “Richard”, and says his journey into violent extremism began at a small meeting in London in 2002 where a group of like-minded extremists met to “reform” the Knights Templar Europe, a military group whose purpose was “to seize political and military control of western European countries and implement a cultural conservative political agenda”.
The group’s name is a reference to the medieval Christian military order involved in the Crusades. It has no connection to the Knights Templar International, a long-established organisation aiming to build “bridges throughout the world for peace and understanding”, and which has issued a statement deploring Breivik’s “senseless acts of terrorism”.
In his manifesto Breivik said the gathering in London was “not a stereotypical ‘rightwing’ meeting full of underprivileged, racist skinheads with a short temper”. Instead, he claimed those present were successful entrepreneurs, “business or political leaders, some with families, most Christian conservatives, but also some agnostics and even atheists”.
Breivik said the handful of far-right activists had travelled to London from across Europe, and most had not met each other before. He did not name those present, but claims two of them, including the host, were English, as well as one French, one German, one Dutch, one Greek, one Russian and one Serbian.
“They obviously wanted resourceful, pragmatical [sic] individuals who were able to keep information away from their loved ones and who were not in any way flagged by their governments.”
At 23 years old, Breivik says he was the youngest person at the meeting, and had first been put in contact with others in the group by a “Serbian crusader commander”.
At the end of the sessions, he says, he was “ordinated as the 8th justicar knight for the PCCTS, Knights Templar Europe” – the name he uses to sign off the last entry in his diary before carrying out Friday’s attacks.
It was at this meeting that he also claims to have struck up his friendship with his mentor. Breivik says he and “Richard”, who took the pseudonym in reference to Richard the Lionheart, had a “relatively close relationship”.
According to the document, the meeting in London was followed by two larger events held in “Balticum” which attracted people from all over Europe. He says there was a high level of security at the gatherings, adding that those attending were told not to communicate to people outside.
“Some of us were unfamiliar with each other beforehand, so I guess we all took a high risk meeting face to face … electronic or telephonic communication was completely prohibited, before, during and after the meetings. On our last meeting it was emphasised clearly that we cut off contact indefinitely. Any type of contact with other cells was strictly prohibited.”
Breivik also boasted about links to the UK far-right group the English Defence League. He mentioned the group several times in the manifesto and claimed he had “spoken with tens of EDL members and leaders … [supplying] them with processed ideological material (including rhetorical strategies) in the very beginning.”
The EDL – which has staged a series of street demonstrations, many of which have turned violent, since it was formed two years ago – issued a statement on Sunday condemning the killings and denying any links with Breivik. It added that the league was a peaceful organisation which rejected all forms of extremism.
In the closed court hearing on Monday, Breivik claimed he belonged to an organisation with two more cells that remain at large, although he did not give more details. Wainwright, the Europol director, said police were working flat out to try and establish whether Breivik had help from far-right groups and activists in the UK and across Europe.
“We’re pursuing a number of lines of inquiry. It is difficult to tell if he had active support from outside Norway,” he said.

World War Nears After Vatican-Knights Templar Talks Fail
by THETOTALCOLLAPSE.COM on JUNE 11, 2011
A shocking report prepared by the Russian General Staff to President Medvedev is warning today that World War III is “all but inevitable” after the Knights Templar spurned an initial payment offer of over €22.5 million against their €100 billion claim for the return of their seized assets filed in Spain against Pope Benedict XVI in 2008.
At the outset of our reporting on this dire Russian General Staff report it is imperative that the reader understand that their knowledge of truthful history is woefully inadequate to incorporate the facts herein stated, but by following the links we’ve included should give one the ability to ascertain its veracity. On the other hand, should any reader fail to follow-up our report by their own independent verification, the catastrophic events now unfolding will certainly come as the greatest shock of their lives.
As a most basic of primers we suggest that the reader of this report first read our May 8th report “Knights Templar Prepare To Unite US-Iran For ‘Final’ World Battle” and our May 16th report “Obama Gives ‘Sacrifice’ To Ancient ‘Sun God’ Of Mound Builders”. Though not containing all of the information one would need to thoroughly understand this report, one should be able to grasp the larger issues involved for their further studies.
Now the titanic battle currently underway in this century’s long war between the Knights Templar and the Vatican began in August, 2008 when this secretive, but very powerful, religious order filed a suit in Spain against Pope Benedict XVI for the return of the assets seized from them in 1307 by Pope Clement Vthat included more than 9,000 properties as well as countless pastures, mills and other commercial ventures and estimated to be worth today over €100 billion .
The main basis of the Knights Templar suit against Pope Benedict XVI was information contained in what is called the Chinon Parchment discovered in the Vatican archives proving that Pope Clement V secretly absolved the last Grand Master Jacques de Molay and the rest of the leadership of the Knights Templar from charges brought against them by the Medieval Inquisition. [The parchment is dated Chinon, 1308 August 17 – 20th; the Vatican keeps an authentic copy with reference number Archivum Arcis Armarium D 218, the original having the number D 217]
Spearheading the Knights Templar suit against Pope Benedict XVI was their UNESCO recognized branch located in Switzerland named the Ordo Supremus Militaris Templi Hierosolymitani, though this Russian General Staff reports the American “factions” of this order was the main cause behind this unprecedented attack on the Vatican.
In early September, 2008, this report continues, the Vatican filed a counter-claim against the Knights Templar’s suit in Spain seeking its dismissal, which was denied and set off the current global economic crisis after the Knights Templar began a ‘wholesale’ withdrawal of billions, if not trillions, of their hidden assets from both American and European banks causing many of them to collapse.
By June, 2009, the collapse of the global banking system was nearing catastrophic proportions that even the might of the United States could not forestall and leading the new US President, Barack Obama, to ‘order’ the Vatican to the negotiating table with the Knights Templar that he would personally oversee during his July, 2009 meeting with Pope Benedict XVI.
Obama further ordered to the negotiating table between the Vatican and Knights Templar a “secured payment” against the religious orders claim against Pope Benedict XVI of $134 billion in US Treasury Bonds in a move he believed would quell the growing crisis.
Unfortunately for Obama, however, the $134 billion in US Treasury Bonds bound for the meeting between Pope Benedict XVI and the Knights Templar were seized on 15 June under orders from the Vatican by Italian police and prosecutors and the two Japanese Jesuit couriers carrying the 249 US Federal Reserve bonds, each worth $500 million, plus the ten Kennedy bonds with face values of $1 billion were arrested too.
This report says that Pope Benedict XVI used his “$134 billion leverage” over Obama to gain for Rome an additional seat on the US Supreme Court, which the Vatican was successful in maneuvering when shortly after Obama’s return to the US (August, 2009) he appointed Roman Catholic Sonia Sotomayor to the High Court thus assuring Rome’s control over all US laws. [Note: in the Protestant majority US, its Supreme Court contains 6 Roman Catholics(Roberts, Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy, Alito, Sotomayor) and 3 Jews (Ginsberg, Breyer, Kagan)]
Important to note is this report further stating that besides Rome’s control over all American laws trough its “ownership” of the Supreme Court, the“defacto” US President is, in fact, its Jesuit “trained and controlled” Vice President Joseph Biden whose orders come directly from the German Nazi trained Pope Benedict XVI. [Note: No single Roman Catholic official was more responsible the Pope Benedict XVI for the massive global cover-up of child molestation by the Church.]
Obama, however, this report continues, is not without his own allies as aside from Persian Iran; he is, also, supported by “certain elements” associated with the Knights Templar long-embedded within the US Military establishment along with many factions associated with former Soviet and present day Communists.
Using these “allies”, this report says, and after being betrayed by Pope Benedict XVI, Obama’s communist allies in Italy launched a “counter-attack” on the Vatican by having the assets of the Catholic Church’s Institute for Religious Works (IOR) seized and their top bankers put under investigation in September, 2010.
Important to note about the IOR (mistakenly referred to as The Vatican Bank) was it’s creation on 27 June 1942 by Pope Pius XII shortly after the 4-7 June 1942 Battle of Midway where American forces delivered a crushing blow against the Roman Catholic led Japanese Empire ensuring the defeat of the Axis Forces at the hands of the Capitalist West and Communist East and a blow to the Vatican’s centuries long goal of establishing their “Global Plutocracy”. [Note:The term plutocracy is generally used to describe these two distinct concepts: one of a historical nature and one of a modern political nature. The former indicates the political control of the state by an oligarchy of the wealthy. Examples of such plutocracies include the Roman Republic, some city-states in Ancient Greece, the civilization of Carthage, the Italian city-states/merchant republics of Venice,Florence, Genoa, and pre-WWII Empire of Japan zaibatsus.]
This past week, however, and after “strident pleas” from the European Union whose economies are all crashing, Obama and his allies relented and allowed the release of $33 million in seized IOR funds to be paid to the Knights Templar as a “goodwill gesture” while negotiations continue, but which, this report says, this religious order refused as “all trust” between these warring entities have “completely and irrevocably” been broken.
All that is left now, Russia’s top generals and strategists warn, is Total GlobalWar on an “unimaginable scale” that can only be described in the most apocalyptic of terms envisioned by the Christian Bibles Book of Revelation end-time battle when the forces of Gog and Magog, along with their Arab state allies, attack Israel.
Even more grimly, Russia’s General Staff in this report further warns that the Motherland will “more than likely” have to, once again, come to the defense of the United States like she did in protecting America from its European enemies during the Civil War of 1861-1865. [Note: Unbeknownst to the vast majority of Americans, the alliance between President Abraham Lincoln and Russian Tsar Alexander II saved North America from French and British invasion on the side of the Confederates when the Motherland sent her vast fleet to protect them from the thousands of amassed troops assembled for a US invasion from Canada (British) and Mexico(France).]
To the only apparent hope left for America in this coming Global Conflict appears to lie in the 2012 Presidential contenders Mitt Romney and John Huntsman, both of whom are of the Mormon religion, and as we detailed in our January 2nd report “2012 ‘White Horse Prophecy’ Warned Is Coming True In America” remain the only power left in America to counter Rome and its allies seeking the destruction of the United States.
Interesting to note about the Mormon religions ties with the Knights Templar Order are the many legends that the “golden plates” discovered by their founder Joseph Smith Jr. and that began their religious order were, in fact, those discovered by the Knights Templar when they conquered Jerusalem.
Even more interesting to note about all of these events were their being predicted with the 1912 publication in the US of the ex-Roman Catholic priest Jeremiah Crowley’s book “Romanism: A Menace to the Nation” wherein he laid plain for all to see how the Vatican planned to destroy the United States and the Western world….by the year…2012. [Note: This link to Father Crowley’s book goes to the complete 714 page version digitalized by the University of Southern California.]
Most unfortunate in all of this report is how few American people even have the knowledge of their own past history to comprehend it and put it into context, leaving for them, instead, a future that is, and will remain, totally incomprehensible to them as they slide ever closer to the abyss.
