The American Pharaoh continues his war on the Catholic Church.  The US State Department is now labeling the Vatican City a money laundering risk. They allow Jihadi linked Islamic charities to operate unimpeded, yet they are concerned about Vatican City.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration is for the first time citing Vatican City as a potential hub for money laundering.

The State Department’s annual International Narcotics Control Strategy Report released Wednesday identifies the Holy See as one of 68 countries or jurisdictions “of concern” for money laundering or other financial crimes. Officials said the Vatican is on the list because it isn’t clear whether a year-old anti-money laundering regime is effective.

Is this the evil Papist plot Charles Johnson is always worrying about? The American Pharaoh is emulating his Egyptian predecessors. He is targeting people of God, in this case Catholics, to increase his power. The Catholic Church is a potential road block for The Pharaoh. So he has targeted it for remove as an obstacle. Plus to paraphrase Stalin, how many divisions does the Pope have?
