If it looks like it, and smells like it, then it probably is.
Lies that is.
On the other hand, there is a very different and powerful SMOM American chapter that does not publish its membership - whereas the Roman one does.
Cardinal Spellman, like J Edna Hoover, used to dress in ladies frocks. When he and SMOM weren't busy spending their time helping nazi war criminals escaping down the American-run Ratlines, anyway.
Lies that is.
Quote:A spokesman for McChrystal said the general "is not and never has been" a member of the Knights of Malta, an ancient order that protected Christians from Muslim encroachment during the Middle Ages and has since evolved into a charitable organization. These days, the Knights, based in Rome, sponsor medical missions in dozens of countries. McChrystal's spokesman, David Bolger, said Hersh's statement linking McChrystal to the group was "completely false and without basis in fact."

Quote:The American Association of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta
(Knights of Malta, SMOM) was founded in 1927. "By 1941 Francis
Cardinal Spellman was listed as the 'Grand Protector' and
'Spritual Advisor' of the Order, with John J. Raskob as
Treasurer. Members included John Farrell, then President of U.S.
Steel, Joseph P. Grace, and John D. Ryan. In 1934 Raskob,
inspired by the French fascist Croix de Feu, and working closely
with Morgan Bank's John Davis, had been a principal financier in
the plot to organize a fascist coup in the U.S. The plan failed
when General Smedley Butler, who had been set up to lead the
project, denounced it."
His Eminence Cardinal Spellman, "Grand Protector" of the Knights
of Malta, worked with Pope Pius XII to help Nazi war criminals
escape justice. According to Frederic Laurent (*L'Orchestre
Noir. Pairs: Editions Stock, 1978),

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
