Donovan was also, like Licio Gelli and several other powerful figures already considered in this series (General Giuseppe Santovito, Umberto Ortolani, Alexander Haig, etc), a …

He was arrested in France later that year. That has never been proved. He became a celebrity in the 1950’s and early 1960’s, as one of Walt Disney’s experts on the “World Tomorrow.” In 1970, he became NASA’s associate administrator.KURT BLOME; A high ranking Nazi scientist, Blome told U.S. military interrogators in 1945 that he had been ordered in 1943 to experiment with plague vaccines on concentration camp prisoners. The Italian Communists would have taxed the Church’s vast holdings and the church has had a dismal experience with Communist governments throughout the world – where religious freedom was stamped out.Gelli was well connected with the Vatican from the days of the Rat Line and he worked for American Intelligence, as well. While on one hand, the U.S. participated in the war crime tribunals of key Nazi officials and maintained an alliance with the Communist Soviet Union, secretly, the U.S. was preparing for the cold war and needed the help of Nazis in the eventual struggle the U.S. would have with the Soviet Union. But it was not until the 1960s that he found a spiritual home in freemasonry.

State Department archives and the memoirs of officials from that era confirm this. There, mass murderers like Klaus Barbie (the butcher of Lyons) helped governments set up death squads in Chile, Argentina, El Salvador, and elsewhere.KLAUS BARBIE; Known as the Nazi butcher of Lyons, France during WW2, Barbie was part of the SS which was responsible for the death of thousands of French people under the German occupation.HEINRICH RUPP; Some of Rupp’s best work was done for the CIA, after he was imported in Operation Paperclip. As part of Reinhard Gehlen's Intelligence team, he had excellent contacts. The CIA/Vatican alliance that assassinated Pope John Paul 1, JFK, and hundreds of dictators or 3rd world countries is the Illuminati.The Bavarian Illuminati has been around for centuries in one way or another. Much later in life, Gelli would declare: “I am a fascist and will die a fascist.” Yet he was not above switching sides as it became increasingly obvious that the allies would win. Charming, witty, and an eager and effective networker, Gelli rose swiftly to become head, or venerable master, of the once prestigious Propaganda Due (P2) lodge in the centre of Rome.

The French, who know much about intrigue, have a very useful expression, “an Italian scandal.” This means a scandal or plot that is so complex or tangled it defies understanding, and never gets solved. But he did not go to prison.In 1998, however, the supreme court dismissed his last appeal against another conviction, for fraud in connection with the failure of Banco Ambrosiano and, faced with the prospect of jail, Gelli once again fled the country.

The death of 96-year old Masonic Grand Master Licio Gelli this week reopened the mystery of Italy’s greatest and most murky political scandals.

By setting up transit camps and issuing phony passports, the Gehlen Org helped more than 5,000 Nazis leave Europe and relocate around the world, especially in South and Central America.

He, with Klaus Barbie and Heinrich Rupp, met with Ronald R. Rewald in Uruguay to arrange for the Argentine purchase of the French-made Exocet missile, used in the Falkland Island attack to kill British soldiers.To understand Gelli, one must understand the complex post war years of Europe. He wrote a memo warning that “the best interests of the United States have been subjugated to the efforts expended in “beating a dead Nazi horse.” He also declared that the return of these scientists to Germany, where they could be exploited by America’s enemies, presented a “far greater security threat to this country than any former Nazi affiliations which they may have had or even any Nazi sympathies that they may still have”. In common with many other former Mussolini supporters, Gelli reinvented himself as a Christian Democrat. As Master of the Propaganda Due (P2) lodge, Gelli had ties with very high level personalities in Italy and abroad, in particular in Argentina, where he was a fugitive for many years. Ten years ago, when asked who was really behind the death of Calvi, Gelli told the Guardian: “It is not up to us to deliver judgments.

This is but one of the results of Operation Paperclip. It’s presence in the 20th century is the direct result of the Nazis. Many had been longtime members of the Nazi party and the Gestapo, had conducted experiments on humans at concentration camps, had used slave labor, and had committed other war crimes.
