A Roman Catholic military-religious order and/or secret society of, traditionally, a military, "chivalrous" and "noble nature". One of the world's oldest orders of knighthood, dating back to the 11th century. The Sovereign Military Order of Malta is headquartered in Rome, and is arguably a sovereign subject of international law.

The Knights of Malta (or the Sovereign Military Order of Malta) is a singularly long established, spooky catholic deep state group. {{#subobject: |Has superobject=Knights of Malta |Has objectClass=Quotation |Has author=William Cooper|+sep=, |Has text=“The Knights of Malta is a world organization with its threads weaving through business, banking, politics, the CIA, other intelligence organizations, P2, religion, education, law, military, think tanks, foundations, the United States Information Agency, the United Nations, and numerous other organizations.

“The Knights of Malta is a world organization with its threads weaving through business, banking, politics, the CIA, other intelligence organizations, P2, religion, education, law, military, think tanks, foundations, the United States Information Agency, the United Nations, and numerous other organizations. The world head of the Knights of Malta is elected for a life term, with the approval of the Pope. The Knights of Malta have their own Constitution and are sworn to work toward the establishment of a New World Order with the Pope at its head. Knights of Malta members are also powerful members of the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) and the Trilateral Commission.”
William Cooper

Official Narrative

The Knights of Malta are a self described Roman Catholic order, with 13,500 contributing members. The BBC describes the group as "a major international humanitarian organisation". In February 1113, Pope Paschal II issued a papal bull which declared the order independent from bishops or secular authorities. Accordingly, in 2013, a 900th anniversary celebration was held in Rome, to which over 1,000 knights and dames from over 100 countries attended. Matthew Festing, the 79th Prince and Grand Master of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta who was forced out in January 2017, said about the order in 2013 that "On the one hand it’s a sovereign entity. On the other hand it’s a religious order. On the other hand it’s a humanitarian organization. It’s a complicated mixture of things".

Problems

The group includes many deep politicians, deep state actors, members of world governments, intelligence agencies, the banking industry, Big Media, and the military industrial complex which fits uncomfortably with its stated aims of "poverty, chastity and obedience", and gives a new angle on the order's claims to be above above national laws and even the Vatican's control, except in religious matters. The group, which has Permanent Observer status at the United Nations, issues its own passports and used to be considered a separate country - and is still is by some people. It also holds "Observer" status with the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund, and contributed USD $36,000 to the fund from 2006-2022.

Only Roman Catholics can be members, although non-Catholics can receive merit decorations and medals. The list of members at right must be considered partly speculative, as no official public record exists.

Leadership

The group's leader, the Prince and Grand Master of the Order of Malta, is elected in closed session, and normally retains the title for life. The most recent (79th) Grand Master was Matthew Festing, a member since 1977 and head of the Order from 2008 to January 2017, when he was pressured to resign in what many describe as a coup d'etat. His predecessor, also an Englishman, was the first since 1258.

2016/17 Constitutional crisis

Since early December 2016, there has been a civil war within the Knights of Malta, but facts and original source documents have been few despite the worldwide press coverage. One published article speaks of "treachery... greed, cover-ups, betrayal, corruption... blackmail... a successful coup" involving the highest levels of the Vatican and a suspicious 120 million Swiss franc account rumoured to be of Nazi or other dirty money origin, and managed by its Geneva-based trustee Ariane Slinger who appears in the Panama Papers. Published evidence (noting related documents below) shows clear collusion, conflicts of interest and probable corruption involving Slinger and Knights of Malta Albrecht Freiherr von Boeselager, Marc Odendall and Marwan Sehnaoui, as well as with various high officials in the Vatican of Pope Francis.

Freemasonry

Full article: Freemasonry

In spite of open antagonism between the catholicism and freemasonry, many of the Knights of Malta are reported to also be freemasons. The Vatican-appointed Commission (officially the "Group of Five") of December 2016 - January 2017 that exonerated von Boeselager and saw his reinstatement included Count Jacques de Liedekerke, widely believed to be a Freemason; the other commissioners included Odendall and Sehnaoui, who had been secretly colluding with von Boeselager and Slinger on the 120 million Swiss franc slush fund.
