Honestly, it is very difficult to take in all of the information out there now that tells the real story of history. So many institutions, we find out when we look, are corrupt and have been for a long time. Our minds have been corrupted because the lies have forced us to "feel" a certain way because of what we perceived as truth...and now we find out it wasn't truth and how do we live a good life under the burden of all the lies. We have had to unlearn everything and figure out how we're going to look at life as we knew it and change so many things. And most of the people in my life who understood are gone now; I listened to them because I knew stuff wasn't making sense. What do you talk about with people now? I'm not a chit-chat type of person. So I'm now going back to things I love. Anyway, Cynthia, I have your book, The Empire on Which the Black Sun Never Set. It's very good and I'm going to buy the new one. And I always recommend you and Matthew to others who seem to be interested in learning, because your information is so well-researched and you guys are good people. I'm older than you guys. I was around to have witnessed a lot of the shenanigans done by the liars and manipulators since JFK. Many were duped and will never admit they were wrong. And many gave up. But once you know, you can't go back. God bless and thank you both.
Thanks Jenni for sharing that. It is actually quite incredible how many people have a similar experience having lived during the JFK period, looking back at how many lies were told even back then when things appeared more promising and optimistic. However, despite it being very easy to find oneself surrounded in the community they live in with those who only wish to engage in chit-chat while an ever darker cloud looms over us, I know for myself, I have met people through my writings and the RTF lectures in such numbers that are intelligent, caring and compassionate people who do truly care in doing what they can to defend the better parts of our past and culture that it is truly inspiring and gives one hope that things are not as self-centered and mundane as they first appear. Anyhow, so glad that you appreciate the work we do and messages like these really are food for the soul. Many blessings, Cynthia
Interesting in parts, though seams obvious that your understanding of the history of Sicily is based on zioBritish propaganda, you know, the ones which since the 13 century have been rewriting history to use it to brainwash people with falsities and misconceptions to demonize their enemies and glorify themselves.
Sicily was not under under the muslims for 700 years.
Sicily was and still is in fact a secular place in which all cults coexisted and are still coexisting today
I advise you also to research how in fact, The island of Sicilia were and is the heart of what is referred too as the Greek empire. Pitagora, Medusa, Polifemo, just to mention a few, are all Sicilian figures.
Also, if you didn’t know, there is more Greek temples in Sicily than in Greece.
See Valle dei templi, Segesta, Selinunte, Agrigento, Siracusa, just to mention a few..
You are correct on the second part, “after Second World War”.
Here one more thing which may not read anywhere, Sicily has been producer of heroin for decades.
Opium was imported and the final product refined and exported from Sicily till the late 90s.
The IOR is guarded by the “crociati di Malta”, which is also the main adviser for the pope.
About the Swiss guards you are also wrong, hel vetia was declared in 1050 by pope Leo IX, as he sent his Swiss and German army to destroy and occupy Finland where Hel-sinki is located. Hel-veto.
Remember also that from Hel came also the original meridian line, “till it was moved to Greenwich”, and Hel was and is the center of hyperborean world which the church tried to destroy. Again Hel-veto.
The Leo IX order was to burn every oak tree in Odenmaa, and to prevent anyone to live there.
The occupation lasted 200 years, and Odenmaa was finally freed in 1250.
zio British propaganda?!? Wow. That was incredibly condescending and dismissive that you thought that conclusion was "obvious" of my thinking. Especially from someone who apparently follows my work somewhat. It is funny how my discussion of Sicily as something that was under the Islamic Caliphate, which I view as a positive development in history is something that you view as only an excuse that the zio British propaganda would create. Are you aware of al-Andalus? Or is this also something that you view as zio British propaganda to justify the Spanish Inquisition? I would suggest you take a look at a lecture I did (I transcribed it) which can be read here: https://cynthiachung.substack.com/p/on-lessings-nathan-the-wise-is-a-2ff?utm_source=publication-search. I published it in three parts, the second part goes over the history of al-Andalus which was most of Spain that was under the Islamic Caliphate during the Islamic Renaissance to which I view favorably. It is actually commonly recognised by Muslim historians that Sicily was also under the Islamic Caliphate during this Golden Age as well. It is written as so on Muslim maps. I have no idea why you object to this as a conspiracy or something that is possibly a negative thing from your viewpoint. This was a time of rich learning, there were numerous House of Wisdoms, one was in al-Andalus where Jewish, Christian and Muslim scholars traveled to. Arabic was the universal language even among Christians. When Toledo came under Christian rule in 1085 the culture remained Arab. Two Christian princes are especially exemplary of the rich dialogue that ensued with Islamic Spain, Alfonso the Wise and Frederick II. If I recall correctly, Emperor Frederick II was born in Sicily and his first language was Arabic. Muriel Weissbach has done a wonderful essay discussing this history in her paper which I cite in my lecture I just referenced to you. As I see it, the Spanish Inquisition was largely orchestrated to purge Spain, censor and forbid this influence from continuing in Spain - the Islamic presence had already greatly been reduced by then and they only held the territory of Granada. Frederick II was being pressured by the Papal States to start the Crusades, however, many historians recognise the Norman invasion of Sicily as the first true Crusades. If I remember correctly from Weissbach's paper Frederick II was buried in Arab garb according to his wishes. So yes, I do believe that the Spanish Inquisition and the Crusades were, among other reasons, created to remove the influence of the Islamic Renaissance which I view as having had a very positive influence in European culture. In fact, there is a great deal of evidence to support that Dante's Divine Comedy was greatly influenced by the Islamic Renaissance in Europe. Weissbach goes over this in her paper, which I also share in my lecture. I suggest when you make your comments that you do not assume that you have all the answers and go on to tell me what I am "correct" on and what I am "incorrect" on. The fact that you seem entirely unaware of this history should give you some food for thought.
Hello dear Cynthia, first of all let me thank you again for posting so much interesting material, and for having the boldness to engage with your readers. Then forgive my zioBritish definition, which is surly a wild one, but anyhow one which in the end still fits to describe the force which in the end, ended up destroying the great kingdom of the Due Sicilie for the mare interest of its banking institution.
I don’t like to sound as if I am imposing what I know as true over what you know to be true, only pointing out at things which I think deserve more attention and studying.
The names of the majority of the places in Sicily are much older than Islam, as the indigenous people of the land, have always maintained the control of their land and chosen their leaders out of their free will. “ this Till the end of the Second World War”.
As Sicily is the richest island in the Mediterranean, it as also been the most open to all cultures and muslims, jews, christians and people from all faiths, have always coexisted in peace. “Or got their ars kicked out of the place”.
Sicilians are known to be very generous and noble, but also the toughest, “because they are”.
About the language, you are perhaps not aware of the fact, that the Sicilian language, a language which precide Greek culture, is not an Arabic language.
Sicilian, was also the one language chosen to become fused with the dialect of the region of Tuscany , for to become what we know now as the Italian language.
Indeed nobility had for centuries needed to learn Arabic language, as much of its trade was made with Arab speaking countries, and indeed the influence of the Arab cultures are also visible and present throughout the Spanish kingdom and Sicily, but once again, saying that Sicily was under the Arabs for 700 years because Arabs were allowed to built mosques and to coexist with people from all other cults and religions is something which I am sure that you will read in any book published in the last few hundred years, but simply not based on facts but on slander of a culture which is actually older and mother to what we are told to call as “the Greek mythology”.
A culture which survived and strived through diplomacy and respects of other cultures, which clearly contrasts with one based on fear and war. “Which is the one we are still under”
To understand the greatness of the Sicilian history, one of the stories I would suggest you to research is the one of the burning of the second largest library or according to others perhaps even larger and older than the one of Alexandria.
The burning of the library of Noto is perhaps one of the darkest chapter of its history. Strange enough though, you will most likely find nothing about it on the internet, nevertheless, since you do have access to history books preceding the second world war, I am sure you can still find there some of the now distorted or hidden facts regarding its history.
One more point worth remembering is also that before the capitulation of the kingdoms of the Due Sicilie, the kingdom was the richest in the world, as it made its riches from trade and not from war.
So yes, zioBritish again, were in fact the sponsors of the so called red shirts revolution, which guided by a criminal, g. garibaldi, which was hired and helped to return to Europe from his place of exile in Argentina by the British masons and sponsored bankers, “g. garibaldi”, chased away the then Spanish king, which abandoned Sicily to leave it in the hands of the French, “savoia ”, which then corporatized the country and founded Italy.
I lived many years in Sicily, and learned quite much about its history and secrets.
Many stories, like the ones of “beati Paoli”, secret society which built underground roads networks spanning for hundreds of kilometers and connecting Palermo to Messina, Trapani and Catania, are stories you can only learn there.
No commercial book will ever tell you about it.
Any how, as always I thank you for your dedication and effort.
And finally, I may i also advise you to go to Sicily for a Holliday when you get the chance, best food, great people, fantastic sea, mountains and nature and most amazing archeological sites and history.
Thank you Sol Sön for clarifying your position. And let me clarify mine. I am not saying that the Sicilian culture or language was created by the Islamic presence in Sicily. And I never intended to take away from what Sicily had created for itself before. Spain too does not speak the Arabic language despite a very well documented Islamic presence there for centuries. And I think this might also speak to the sort of "governance" the Islamic presence had, which was not to try to assimilate these cultures or even demand that the people convert to Islam. I completely agree with you that Sicily had a rich history before the Islamic presence. I will most definitely look into the burning of the library of Noto. The burning of the Library of Alexandria is one of the greatest losses for western civilization. The Mongols were the ones to burn down the House of Wisdom in Baghdad. I do not think it a coincidence that most of these major learning centers were destroyed, I believe in a coordinated manner. It appears the Venetians had a lot to do with this, and gave the Mongols certain directives. I do not think it a coincidence that the Normans were the ones to invade Sicily. Was it perhaps during this time that the Noto was destroyed do you think? The vikings were also used in a similar fashion to the Mongols to hit specific targets. Since this is recognised by many historians as the first true Crusade, this tells us that the Normans were doing the bidding of certain members within the Vatican, likely with much Venetian influence. I would like to explore this subject further some day. Also, I am well aware of Garibaldi and have touched on these dynamics in my series on the Mafia Brotherhood series. If you like I can give you access to it for free since it is behind a paywall, I would be interested in your feedback. Anyhow, I hope that clarifies my position a bit better. The reason why I like to talk about the Islamic governance especially in Spain is because there is ample evidence that this was a positive point in history of ecumenical scholarship and learning, of sharing of ideas and culture. I am not advocating for a melting pot here, but rather the ability to have a dialogue of cultures. We all live in the same world and thus dialogue is key to us achieving peace and understanding. I think Syria as the cradle of civilization for instance is a good example of this sort of peaceful coexistence with dialogue of cultures - where all three religions coexisted for centuries beside one another. And yes, I would certainly love to visit Sicily some day, I think it likely it will happen. :)
Thank you for the invitation Cynthia, I be delighted, to give you my feed back.
Once again, I agree with you that the Southern European countries enjoyed much of the good relation with the Islamic world, Sicily and Spain are a great example of such a good and lasting relation.
About the Venetians and mongols, quite peculiar is the symbol of the Juan dynasty. The supposed inventors of cash money used the symbol of PI or chai as their family emblema, which in itself tells a lot about the the true origins of those who armed and financed their money system experiment and indeed, empire.
About the Vikings in Sicily, much stories about that too, once again, it is the richest land in Europe and the Vikings or Norse people have enjoyed the hospitality of the Sicilians ever since they became free from the ice of the ice age.
Pagan temples dedicated to their Gods are still existing there.
Again, many thanks for sharing your brilliant research and work and a bunch of good energies from Helsinki Finland.
Ok wonderful! You have access to the paid content as of now. The first part to the series can be found here and links to the rest of the series: https://cynthiachung.substack.com/p/the-french-connection-the-knights. Looking forward to your insights and thoughts on these matters. :)
