THE CRYPTO CRUSADES OF THE CRYPTOCRACY
AND THE POOR FELLOW SOLDIERS OF THE MASHIACH & THE TEMPLE
OF SOLOMON

Better known as 'The Templars', 'The Poor Fellow Soldiers of Christ
and the Temple of Solomon', rank among the most famous and fabled
fighting forces in history. Given that the Templars, after their
escavation at Solomon's Temple, became fabulously wealthy and were
known to be neither poor in wealth nor in spirit, the name entails
a certain irony. The saying, "Proud as a Templar", became common
prior to the time when the Catholic Church,
at the insistence of King Philip IV of France, reluctantly participated in the
crackdown on the wayward Catholic Order of poor soldiers of
Christ. Charged with heresy, sodomy,
denying Christ, ritual desecration of the Catholic crucifix,
and sorcery, the ostensibly Catholic Order was arguably Catholic
in name only.
Well known to have
excelled in usery, the Order gained credit as the inventors
of international banking, plus other forms of skulldugery,
even to the point where they were known to hoist the Skull and Bones,
or Jolly Roger, above their pirate ships in what might be
considered an act of uncharacteristic candor and clemency, especially
given their fabulous fabricated image as poor Christian knights gallently going
forth in their white robes, adorned with flamboyant
flayed red crosses, to defend impoverished Jerusalem-bound pilgrims
from, you guessed it, pirates.
Both the origin and demise of the Order is shrouded in
a veil of mystery. The Order began, according to chronicler
William of Tyre, as a small band of nine men who
formed the Brotherhood to guard
roads from the coast of the Levant to Jerusalem so as to
safeguard the passage of pilgrims to and from Holy sites.
Never mind that
such a small assemblage of middle-aged knights was not up
to the task to which it was supposedly assigned, because,
after all, such was not its real task, nor, in any case,
what it ever really did during the first years of its
existence. What they did during the first eight or so years
is unknown, but it's said by some that what they really did
was dig for treasure beneath Solomon's Temple, after which time,
perhaps by sheer coincidence, they became
fabulously and famously wealthy.
What the "poor knights" actually found, if anything, remains,
as they say, "mysterious".
In the book, Solomon's Brokers, authors Christopher Knight
and Alan
Butler, point out some other idiosyncracies about the Order's name:
"The longer title seems entirely Christian at first view -- but it
is nothing of the kind. Every Christian quite naturally assumes
that the term 'Christ' refers to Jesus -- but of course it does
not. As we have seen (see page 42) the word is from the Greek
Khristos ('anointed'), and is a translation of the Hebrew word
'Messiah' (mashiach) -- literally one who is 'smeared with oils' as
a mark of Jewish Kingship. 'Christ' is a title, not the name of
any one individual, so the order's title does not refer
specifically to Jesus but to...anyone
else who was to lead the Jewish priests and their people to a new
world order....We can be sure that the Knights Templar intended the
world to have this meaning because they describe themselves
as 'Poor Fellow-Soldiers of the Messiah'. The use of the term
'fellow-soldiers' (commilitones) implies that they saw themselves
as equals with this person, rather than his 'followers.' One would
have expected any normal Christian monks to simply describe themselves
as 'Poor Soldiers of Jesus Christ and the Temple of Solomon.' The
word 'fellow' subtly changes the import. Fortunatley it
appeared that nobody questioned precisely what the Temple of Solomon
had to do with Jesus Christ."
(Solomon's Power Brokers, page 94)
In the book "The Knights Templars & The Key of Solomon the
King", which contains a sympathetic history of the order followed
by Freemason S. L. MacGreggor Mather's translation of the
magical text "The Key of King Solomon the King", we read that
no "other order of chivalry has ever equaled them in
gallant deeds, or made such an impression on the popular
imagination." Later we read:
"Poverty was one of their rules,
and the seal of the Order was engraved with a device of two knights riding
one horse--intended to denote both humility and want of
means." Others claim, to the contrary, that the Order was neither poor nor humble,
and the device of two knights riding one horse has a dual
meaning, one exoteric, which
has already been stated, and the other, esoteric, which critics
have not hesitated
to guess at: the two knights on one horse are emblematic
of the sodomy, or homosexuality, of the inner-Order, while also
suggestive of the Order's Kabbalist dualism, which holds
that both evil and good (black and white, metaphorically
speaking) are needful and part of the god-head,
in which case both exoteric and esoteric dogmas
would be part and parcel of the Order's practice, meaning
that to the majority of uninstructed Templars, the
sinificance of the seal
was simply that of poverty and humility; to those few initiated or
instructed in the Order's esoteric doctrine, however, the meaning
of the seal would have been occult.
Not surprisingly,
the last mentioned book includes
a magical text on occult conjuration; namely, "The Key of
Solomon the King", "the fountain-head of Qabalistic magic",
according to its translator, the notorious Freemason,
Mathers, founder of the influencial magical fraternity the
Golden Dawn,
which would seem to suggest the obvious; namely,
that perhaps the occult
teachings of the Order were Qabbalistic in nature, and of
course, that would stand to reason if indeed the orginal
Knights of the Order unearthed religious texts beneath
Solomon's Temple, which texts might reasonably be expected
to be Qabalistic. After all, the documents would presumably be
those of the Jewish Pharisees whose temple it was, whose
religion was not that of Moses, according to Jesus Christ,
who prophesied the utter destruction of the temple as a
judgement of God.
But apart from their pairing in the aforementioned book,
apart from the similitude in nomenclature,
did the Knights of Solomon's Temple have anything to do with
Solomonic sorcery? Well, let's put it this way: Is a pig's rump
pork? It depends, of course,
on what the meaning of the word 'is' is, but let's not get ahead
of ourselves and simply content ourselves, at this point, to
point to the obvious fact that despite what we may think,
there are those among us, some of them noteworthy Freemasons, who
keep pointing
out the association between the two, as though they go together
as naturally as a skull and cross-bones. For example, Mr. Lon Milo
Duquette, a Freemason, and author of "The Key to Solomon's
Key: Secrets of Magic and Masonry", alludes not so subtely to
such a connection, and while, as the introduction by Wasserman
asserts, Duquette's yoking of Masonry with magic may be
greeted with an indignant outcry of 'Au Contraire!' from the
Masonic bleachers, yet still, I must confess, me thinks their
outrage is either feigned or the sincere disavowals of the
willfully ignorant.
In his book, Duquette notes:
"Whether true or not, in legend and popular
(and later, Masonic) imagination the Templars became
almost superheroes (or super-villians), masters of
the magical arts, the Kabbalah, demon evocation,
alchemy, even sexual magic.
Several of these traditions
(sex magic not included) are not so subtly touched upon in the
York and Scottish Rites of Freemasonry, where degrees
concerning the return of the children to Israel from
Babylon are heavily peppered with references to the Kabbalah
and juxtaposed with ceremonies concerning the Knights
Templar." (page 86)
If so, then perhaps, contrary to some
Masonic propagandists, it wasn't mere envy and greed that
motivated Altar and King, Pope and Potentate, to ruthlessly
crush the Order. In fact, whether we think the
crackdown on the Templars was justified or not, they were
in fact practioners of the type of sorcery of which they were
accused--if, that is, Duquette is right.
Even in the aforementioned favorable history of the Order,
the author reports that rumours, i.e., unsubstantiated reports,
of the kind the author makes, circulated widely about the Order's
dark side long before the Papal crackdown. But only recently--and even
now with considerable caution and suberfuge--does Freemasonry admit as
much publicly, because, perhaps, magic and sorcery has become
so widespread and acceptable--thanks in no small part to
Judeo-Freemasonry's campaign to advance New Age
mysticism--that
there's no need to fear any backlash from the public.
According to Christopher Knight and Alan Butler, both of whom
are Freemasons
and Zionists who evidently support the move towards what they
call "Solomon's New World Order", the Templars were created
with the backing of wealthy Jewish families who knew of the
treasure beneath Solomon's Temple and had conspired to obtain it
with the help of Christian dupes. The authors allege that
the First Crusade was actually waged to gain access to the Temple
of Solomon. The Templars were created by what the authors
euphemistically call the "Star families" (read hex clans)
to excavate the Temple grounds. If so, the First Crusade was a
crypto-crusade, one whose real purpose was altogether different
than the stated or publicized one, and likewise, the publicized
mission of the Templars was altogether other than their real
one. According to ex-Freemason Laurence Gardner, author of
Solomon'shadow, the Templar mission was carried on by the
Rosicrucians, who were an offshoot of Templarism in Scotland.
Both Orders, like Freemasonry, drew from the poisoned well of
the Jewish Kabbalah.
As such, the Templars, and the Talmudic-Kabbalist Jewry that
backed them, might be rightly percieved as the
precursors of our modern cryptocracy and the intellectual
forbears of corporate Freemasonry, which, according to
Goethe, who was himself a Freemason, is
a state within the state.
It is also a secret society
within a secret society, as well as a church within the Church
that has constantly conspired to control the
eccliastical hierarchy, such that, to combat this danger,
Catholics established the Inquisition to ferret out Morrano Jews,
i.e., practioners of Talmudic-Kabbalistic Judaism who pretended
to be Catholic. This arguably backfired and caused the cancer
in the bowls of the Church to metastasize or spread, arguably
culminating in the Judeo-Masonic take-over of the Catholic Church during the
Vatican II reformation, as some allege, although the evidence
is not entirely convincing, nor indeed would any takeover be effective
if it were.
Critics of Catholicism point to occult infiltration
of the Church as though that proves its culpability or collusion in the
occult conspiracy. Whether they are guilty of the sin of false witness
is something worth considering. It's interesting and relevant to note
how Pope Leo XIII, who was a staunch adversary of Freemasonry, who wrote
what is arguably the best Papal encylical against Freemasonry, appointed
Cardinal Rompello as the Vatican's Secretary of State; Rompello, it was
later discovered, was a Freemason and associated with the O.T.O., and
his election as Pope was only narrowly prevented. Are we to conclude
that Pope Leo XIII himself was part of the Masonic conspiracy? That is
possible, I suppose, but more likely is that he was simply decieved by Rompello.
If a man as intelligent and
knowledgeable as Pope Leo XIII could be decieved on such an important
matter, we can easily see how the Church, despite it's opposition to
Freemasonry, likewise promotes Freemasons to positions of authority, not
because it is pro-Masonry, but because its enemy is cunning and crafty.
Since the Catholic Church has no esoteric
or hidden docrine, it's position can be ascertained easily enough, but as
to those who cloak their convictions in ambiguous imagery and
cloister themselves in occultism, perhaps they are partly to blame if others,
in trying to ascertain their true beliefs, arrive at erroneous
conclusions.
If so, then possibly the Church, including perhaps most Templars, can no
more be blamed for being duped by the Qabbalist-Templars in their ranks than
Pope Leo XIII could be blamed for appointing Rompello. In any case, even if there
is some culpablity on the part of the Church hierarchy, this casts no
disrepute upon the doctrines of the Catholic Church, and it is by her doctrine
and her laws that she must be judged if she is to be judged fairly, for we don't
blame just laws, nor the institutions that make them, simply because criminals
break them. Nor should we blame the laws or doctrines of Catholicism simply because
rebels in her ranks, who by all outward appearances are Catholic, break away from
the faith secretly.

"The key word here is blackwhite. Like so many
Newspeak words, this word has two mutually contradictory
meanings. Applied to an opponent, it means the
habit of impudently claiming that black is white,
in contradiction to the plain facts. Applied to
a Party member, it means loyal willingness to say
that black is white when Party discipline demmands
this. But it means also the ability to believe
that black is white, and more, to know that black
is white, and to forget that one has ever believed
the contrary. This demands a continous alteration
of the past made possible by the system of thought
which really embraces all the rest, and which
is known in Newspeak as doublethink." -- 1984,

"Clavel says that in the 17th Century, in Germany, the grave of a Templar who died
before the dissolution of the Order, was opened and within it was a stone engraved
with Masonic emblems, the square, compasses, pentalpha, celestial sphere, and
variously pointed stars. etc. The double triangle is very frequently seen on
Templar tombs." (The Knights Templars & the Key of Solomon The King, page 81)
"The animal head, usually that of a goat with a torch
between
the horns, represented the responsibility of matter and the
expiation of sin in the body; the human hands of the figure,
betokening the sanctity of labor, were pointed above and below
to two crescents, the upper white and the lower black,
corresponding to good and evil,mercy and justice." --

Templar", page 243, The Complete Conspiracy Reader, edited

"The Templars' seal, depicting two knights riding on the same
war charger, to symbolize the order's vows of poverty and
modesty, has been reinterpreted by researcher Juan G. Atienza
as a visible manifestation of the Knights Templar's understanding
of the Cabala and Cabalistic instruction, which stated that 'only
two men united in meditation over the world of God can create a
living being'." -- The Complete Conspiracy Reader, edited

The new Kinkos (FedEx) logo is a thinly-veiled hexagram;
not surprising, given that the company is directed by the Rothschilds,
according to Fritz Springmeier in his article, "The Power of the Rothchilds", www.rense.com,
and what's
more, since Kinkos, at present, is one place where anonymous internet access is
possible, it's arguably a strategic imperative that they control it
if indeed they are one of the most powerful forces behind the drive for
a Solomonic New World Order and the digital all-seeing eye; that way,
when the time is right, they can move in and make sure that anonymous internet
access is no longer possible; the day will likely come when you will need to use your
credit card to gain access to the internet via Kinkos, although presently you can
gain access without one by using cash cards.
"Strangely, both men (Godfroi de Bouillon and his brother Baudouin,
founders of the Templar order) are reported to have converted to
Judaism upon taking their titles. Perhaps it was their known
association with Judaism and Jewish bloodlines which persuaded
the Pope to grant the Templars the right to practice usury."

"To acquire influence and wealth, then to intrigue, and at
need to fight, to establish the Johannite or Gnostic and
Kabalistic dogma, were the object and means proposed to the
initiated Brethren. The Papacy and the rival monarchies,
they said to them, are sold and bought in these days, become
corrupt, and to-morrow, perhaps, will destroy each other.
All that will become the heritage of the Temple: the World will
soon come to us for tis Sovereigns and Pontiffs. We shall
constitute the equilibrium of the Universe, and be rulers over the
Masters of the World. Their watchword was, to become wealthy,
in order to buy the world." (Alberty Pike, Grand Sovereign Pontiff
of Scottish Rite Freemasonry, as quoted from Solomon's
Treasure, Tracy R.l Twyman, page 143)
"The end of the drama is well known, and how Jacques de Molai
and his fellows perished in the flames. But before his execution,
the Chief of the doomed Order organized and instituted what
afterword came to be called the Occult, Hermetic, or Scottish
Masonry." (Albert Pike, 33rd Degree Freemason, as quoted
again by Tracy R. Twyman, page 144, Solomon's Treasure
"Then in addition to this, we have the subtle but identifiable
acknowledgement the founders apparently gave to the figure of
Baphomet, a Templar and Masonic symbol of the Universal Agent
which, in its hermaphroditism, perhaps can be seen to represent
a union of these masculine and feminine divine essences."
(Tracy R. Twyman, speaking of the Masonic founders of the
United States, page 188, Solomon's Treasure)
"In 2001, The Templars and the Assasins: The Militia of Heaven,
[by OTO advocate Wasserman], the result of over seven years research
and writing, was published by Inner Traditions. Already translated
into four languages, it appears well on its way to becoming a modern
classic of the subject of the holy warrior. The book eerily anticipated
the Semptember 11 attacks that occured just four months after its
publication." (Craig Heimbichner,
