Your reply is confusing ....
and seems to be confirming my points ---

America is the Superpower and has been since the end of WWII --

America has co-opted many other governments; note that Blair was often called "Bush's lap dog."

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if America had totally co-opted the Vatican . . .
Of course, they were responsible for helping the Nazis escape and for getting the gold out of Germany . . . but America was participating, knowledgeable -- and taking in our own Nazis.

But Pope John Paul -- the one before this one -- certainly looked like a CIA Pope ...

And, the Vatican intelligence networks are said to be comparable to the CIA/America intelligence --
and I'm sure the US would have been interested in that power . . . in co-opting it.
By the way, Dulles' nephew -- a priest --- is now moving up in the Vatican . . .
