First aired on 12 March 2022 The Jewish identity of Ukraine’s President Zelensky has been used by many in the West, to cover NATO's manifest alliance with Neo-Nazi battalions in the war against Russia. But it’s not just NATO that’s working with these Neo-Nazi groups in Ukraine. Israel is arming, and its military personnel is even fighting alongside explicitly Neo-Nazi units The Zionist regime has supplied arms to the Ukraine military including the Nazi Azov battalion which traces its antecedents to Nazi collaborators in the 1939-45 war. Azov Battalion members have been photographed toting Tavor rifles built by Israeli Military Industries a subsidiary of Elbit Systems. In February 2016 it was revealed that Elbit Systems would be part of a group investing in Ukraine’s defense establishment.

Odessa in southern Ukraine has been referred to at the ‘Gates of Zion’. Both Leon Pinsker founder of ‘Lovers of Zion’ a forerunner of the Zionist movement and the revisionist Zionist leader Vladimir Jabotinsky hailed from Odessa. Jabotinsky historically supported the Ukrainian nationalists including their leader Symon Petliura. Zionist sources today credit Petliura with responsibility for the deaths of 50,000 Jews in the pogroms in the 1920s. But Jabotinsky maintained that Petliura was not an anti-Semite, even going so far as to state: "When I die, you can write on my grave: 'This was the person who signed an agreement with Petliura'".

St. Leo III, also known as Pope Leo III, was born in Rome, Italy, in the late 8th century. Little is known about his early life or family background. He became a priest and served in various positions within the Church before being elected as the Pope in December 795. Shortly after his election, St. Leo III faced significant challenges and opposition. Some members of the Roman nobility were unhappy with his papal authority and attempted to remove him from office. In April 799, a group of conspirators led by a nephew of a former Pope attacked Leo III, leaving him badly beaten and injured. They also attempted to gouge out his eyes and cut out his tongue to prevent him from serving as Pope. Miraculously, Leo III survived the attack but was temporarily driven out of Rome. The leader of the group was a nephew of a former Pope, named Paschal. The motivations behind the attack are not entirely clear, but there are several theories and historical speculations. It is believed that Paschal and his cohorts were unhappy with Pope Leo III's policies and authority. Some historians suggest that Paschal may have felt threatened by Leo III's efforts to reform and consolidate the power of the papacy, which could have challenged the influence of certain noble families in Rome. During a procession in Rome, the conspirators assaulted Pope Leo III, inflicting severe injuries upon him. They physically beat him, attempted to gouge out his eyes, and even sought to cut out his tongue. These brutal acts were likely intended to not only physically harm Leo III but also to permanently impair his ability to fulfill his duties as Pope and communicate effectively. However, despite the severity of the attack, Pope Leo III miraculously survived. The exact circumstances of his survival are not well-documented, but it is believed that his wounds were treated, and he gradually recovered from the injuries inflicted upon him. Following the attack, Pope Leo III was temporarily driven out of Rome. He sought refuge and protection from Charlemagne, the King of the Franks and Lombards, who was a powerful figure in Europe at the time. Charlemagne, recognizing Leo III's legitimacy as Pope and sympathetic to his cause, intervened on his behalf and ensured his safety. Charlemagne convened a council in Rome in 800 to investigate the allegations against Leo III and affirm his innocence. The council declared Leo III innocent and condemned his attackers. The attack on Pope Leo III is a significant event in his life because it highlights the challenges and opposition he faced during his papacy. It also underscores the complex political dynamics of the time, with various factions vying for power and influence in Rome. Despite the assault, Leo III's resilience and the support he received from Charlemagne allowed him to regain his position as Pope and continue his papal duties until his death in 816. On December 25, 800, during a Mass held at St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne as the Holy Roman Emperor. This event had significant political and religious implications, as it marked the revival of the Western Roman Empire and established a close relationship between the papacy and the Carolingian dynasty. During his papacy, St. Leo III focused on promoting the interests of the Church and strengthening its authority. He revised and organized canon law, issued decrees on various matters, and supported the spread of Christianity in different regions. St. Leo III is also known for his efforts to beautify Rome and its churches. He initiated the construction of various buildings and monuments, including the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls, which was damaged by a fire. St. Leo III died on June 12, 816, in Rome, and was buried in St. Peter's Basilica. He is recognized as a saint in the Roman Catholic Church and is celebrated on June 12 as his feast day. St. Leo III's papacy had a lasting impact on the Church and the relationship between the papacy and secular powers. His courageous defense of the papal office and his role in crowning Charlemagne as the Holy Roman Emperor contributed to shaping the political and religious landscape of medieval Europe. Religiously, St. Leo III's action emphasized the Pope's authority over temporal matters and the recognition of the Pope as the ultimate spiritual authority. It solidified the idea that the Pope had the power to confer legitimacy and authority on secular rulers, and that the Church had a role in the governance and administration of the Christian world. St. Leo III's relationship with Charlemagne continued beyond the coronation. They collaborated closely on various matters, with Charlemagne providing military support and protection to the Pope. This alliance strengthened the position of the papacy and its influence over secular affairs. St. Leo III's papacy also involved efforts to consolidate and expand the power of the papacy within Rome and its surrounding territories. He initiated various construction projects, including the restoration of churches, the construction of fortifications, and the improvement of infrastructure. These endeavors aimed to assert the papacy's presence and authority in Rome and to establish the Pope as a significant figure in both spiritual and secular matters. Overall, St. Leo III's papacy represented a significant period in the history of the papacy's relationship with secular powers. His actions, such as the coronation of Charlemagne, emphasized the Pope's authority and role in temporal affairs, and set precedents that would influence the dynamics between the Church and secular rulers in subsequent centuries.

Order your free DVD copy of "The Restoration of Rome": https://bit.ly/2WmmG1R Charlemagne or Charles the Great is one of the key historical figures in the reconstruction and unification of the Western Roman Empire. He arrived on the scene almost three hundred years after the last Roman emperor to control Western Europe was deposed by Germanic tribes. Who was Charlemagne and what role did he have in the restoration of Rome? Since the fall of the Western Roman Empire in AD 476 the role of the Bishop of Rome was severed from the remaining regions controlled by Constantinople in the Eastern Roman Empire. This was briefly reversed under the rule of Justinian, as examined in Part one of this series. However, three years after Justinian’s death the Lombard’s invasion of Italy took place. Charlemagne was a Germanic warrior; in fact, the entire Frankish kingdom consisted primarily of modern-day France and Germany ruled by a Germanic elite. His father Pepin the Short was the first member of the Carolingian dynasty, with the blessing of the Pope, to be crowned King of the Franks in 751 AD. In exchange for this support, he donated the land that became the Papal States and it was Pepin’s close relationship with the Papacy, which formed the future role of Charlemagne and the church in Rome.
