It's not just the migrants
Interesting article by Edward Pentin.
Bergoglio and the bishops publicly hate the new Italian government because it opposes migration. Priests love migrants for obvious reasons.
Pentin cites Italian newspapers who think there's a deeper motive pertaining to long-standing corrupt arrangements between the Vatican and the Italian government.
Cambi alleges Salvini has in his hands a “dossier” containing evidence of financial corruption in the Church, primarily linked to APSA, the Administration of the Patrimony of the Apostolic See, the body responsible for administering Vatican assets and real estate, as well as details of some 200 clerical pedophile cases currently pending trial. ... The Vatican manages “investment vehicles” of 6 billion euros and according to the Council of Europe, in 2012 alone APSA handled some 680 million euros. Whatever the exact figures, Italians — especially a burgeoning number of supporters of the ruling coalition government — are in no mood to let themselves be lectured to by Church leaders who allow such corruption to continue at their own expense. Nor do they like the fact that the Pope and Italian Church leaders are constantly urging the country to accept more migrants but are taking none themselves into Vatican City.In other words, the Vatican mob is a classic and comprehensive mob. Sex trafficking, money laundering, tax havens, blackmail. Burgeoning is not an exaggeration. Polls show 70% support for the crackdown on migrants. As I tiresomely repeat, a government that DOES ITS DUTY will be supported by the people. This is the 'secret ingredient' that our Experts and media refuse to let us see. They continue to toss around terms like Authoritarian and Fascist for the anti-Soros forces, but the correct term for a government with 70% support is Democracy.
