Leo XIV has appointed Swiss Guard Lieutenant Anton Kappler as his new personal valet, according to Eva Fernández on X. Born on 16 August 1979 in Wattwil, St. Gallen, Kappler has served in the Pontifical Swiss Guard since 2001. Often described as the Pope’s “butler,” the papal valet is responsible for the pontiff’s private daily routine. The role has occasionally drawn controversy, most notably in the 2012 Vatileaks scandal.
Eva Fernández: D'ora in poi vedremo questa Guardia Svizzera molto vicina al Papa: si tratta del tenente Anton Kappler, che Leone XIV ha scelto come suo “valletto”, una figura discreta ma essenziale nella vita quotidiana. Di solito sarà vicino al pontefice (in abiti civili).

The Other 98% Commanders at over 50 bases are framing the chaos of “Operation Epic Fury” in wild biblical terms to American troops as they are preparing them for combat operations. Reports from the Military Religious Freedom Foundation detail over 200 complaints: officers citing Revelation to claim this is God's divine plan for Armageddon, with one gleefully telling troops President Trump was anointed by Jesus to ignite the end times signal in Iran. And these aren't isolated rants. Non-commissioned officers describe shocked units hearing commanders push Christian end-times prophecy during combat briefings, blending faith with orders across every military branch. It's pure zealotry, turning a messy regime-change bid, complete with dead GIs and no exit strategy, into holy crusade hype. This is pure insanity and so ironic considering a very hyped up and seemingly drug addled Marco Rubio just said, “Iran is run by lunatics. Religious, fanatic lunatics.” This is textbook Christian nationalism …Hafa
Pray for Iran. Pray for the Axis of Resistance. Pray for the defeat of the Epstein forces. Pray for the freeing of the west from the Epstein cult. Invoke the Saints of Nagasaki that God will stay the hand of the cult members use of nuclear weapons or disable them. Remember GTV, so compromised, that Lent is a good time for confession. Required once a year. Offer that grace for the freeing of the west from the Epstein cult. ("What was visible in our Savior has past over into His mysteries." St. Leo the Great, Sermones (on the Sacraments).

Was a Michelangelo Sculpture Discovered in Rome? A study announced on March 4 suggests a marble bust of Christ the Savior in Rome’s Basilica of Sant’Agnese fuori le Mura may be by Michelangelo. Researcher Valentina Salerno proposed the attribution after years of archival research, noting stylistic similarities and links to circles close to the artist in his final years
Il Cristo di Sant’Agnese attribuito a Michelangelo Presentata la nuova ricostruzione storica sul busto conservato sulla Nomentana Èdi Michelangelo Buonarroti il busto scultoreo del Cristo Salvatore conservato da secoli nella Basilica di Sant’Agnese fuori le mura, lungo la via Nomentana a Roma. L’opera, finora considerata anonima, è stata oggetto di una nuova attribuzione resa pubblica nel corso di una conferenza stampa nella stessa basilica. La riattribuzione è stata presentata dalla ricercatrice Valentina Salerno insieme all’Ordine dei Canonici Regolari Lateranensi, che regge il complesso monumentale. Alla base della nuova ricostruzione vi è un’approfondita indagine documentale sull’eredità di Michelangelo, fondata su testamenti, carteggi, diari, libri storici e di viaggio, relazioni, inventari notarili e atti confraternali dal 1564 fino ai giorni nostri. Secondo quanto emerso dagli studi, l’insieme delle fonti consentirebbe di ricondurre il busto del Cristo Salvatore alla mano …Hafa
Mark @Mark4XX ARE CHINESE TROOPS ALREADY IN IRAN TESTING HYPERSONIC WEAPONS ? A high-ranking Russian general with direct Kremlin ties just dropped a massive intel bombshell. Chinese military personnel are already on the ground in Iran testing their latest weapons systems. The US and Israel did not see this coming. THE GENERAL POPOV BOMBSHELL Retired Russian Major General Vladimir Popov is highly decorated and deeply connected. He just stated in an interview that Chinese troops are already in Iran. Not as advisors. As active weapons testers. Their mission is to test hypersonic missiles and bombs on Iranian proving grounds. THE SECOND WAVE STRATEGY The Iranians have not yet deployed their most powerful weapons. They are holding back a second wave for when US logistics are exhausted. Popov states Iran is saving everything for the moment the situation becomes truly catastrophic. China is resupplying them for exactly that moment. CHINA'S REAL MOTIVATION Iran …Hafa

A viral video captures the moment an Iranian ballistic missile outmaneuvers multiple interceptors over central Israel, leading to a tragic impact in Beit Shemesh. This Iranian ballistic missile strike on March 1, 2026, marks the deadliest event in the current conflict, claiming nine lives. We analyze the "saturation tactics" used by the IRGC to overwhelm the Arrow-3 and David's Sling systems. Experts from the CSIS Missile Defense Project note that as Iranian ballistic missile technology evolves with high-speed agility, the cost-to-kill ratio for defenders is becoming unsustainable. In this video you will see: 1. Analysis of the "Fattah" maneuverable re-entry vehicle (MaRV) and its terminal agility. 2. Aftermath of the direct hit on the Beit Shemesh synagogue and shelter. 3. Nighttime footage of the "cat-and-mouse" game between the missile and 10+ interceptors. 4. Why saturation warfare is dropping interception rates below 90% in high-volume waves. Expert Insight: Firing 20 interceptors …Hafa
How Pope Leo Was Elected - New Details Of Dramatic Conclave Battle Revealed Giuseppe Celia A new book lifts a lid on how, in May 2025, Pope Leo XIV was elected as the first US-born pope in the Catholic Church’s 2,000-year history. Its authors tell in previously unheard detail how Cardinal Robert Prevost, a low-key Augustinian friar from Chicago, had quietly garnered support from fellow cardinals as the conclave got underway but remained under the radar of wider attention as a serious candidate. Gerard O’Connell, the Vatican correspondent for “America,” a Catholic magazine based in New York, and Elisabetta Piqué, a correspondent for Argentina’s “La Nación” newspaper and a CNN contributor at the 2025 conclave, describe how an Italian frontrunner faded from contention while providing a breakdown of the voting inside the Sistine Chapel. They also report how the election of Prevost caught many by surprise, including senior figures in the Vatican. For years, the prospect of a pope from …Hafa
Cardinal Joseph Zen, 94, published today on his blog a short meditation on the readings of the Eucharist: "The first reading (Jeremiah 18:18–20) reminds us that this prophet who ‘feared death yet remained faithful to God’ was not a hero. But he spoke whatever the Lord commanded him. Facing the persecution of the ungrateful people, and court-appointed false prophets, he lamented to God, even complaining at times. Yet in the end he always placed his destiny in God’s hands. The Gospel (Matthew 20:17-28) reveals how the mother of two of the apostles mistakenly believed Jesus would be a worldly ruler, hoping her sons would attain high office and wealth. In fact, at that time no one could understand Jesus’ plan of salvation. Shall we emulate the prophets in proclaiming God's word, or willingly become false prophets for the court - be it the secular or ecclesiastical?" #newsYmrgxzjzru

myunkie - If pro-abortion and pro-LGBT Israel together with Donald Trump, who has betrayed conservative values, stop their aggression against pro-life and pro-family conservative Iran, then similar defensive counterattacks by Iran against ultra-liberal Israel will not really happen again.
Jessica Tarlov on the Iran War: "Rubio admitted that Israel decided to do this, and we went along for the ride... Israel was going to go in and Iran was going to attack us because of what our ally was doing. The decisions being made are being orchestrated by Netanyahu."
