“Resignation of the Century??”… “Pope Benedict to Step Down 2-28″…

[Update 2-12-13 0910 HST: One note from Ben Fulford’s unpublished portion, regarding the Pope. Ben writes,

“The Pope resigned because he has been fingered as a mastermind of 911, 311 and the wars in the Middle East by both George Bush Jr. and Tony Blair, according to P2 lodge sources.”]

Sometime last year, I posted this one, “Could it Be? Another Resignation? ‘Pope Benedict to step down April 15 2012’“. Well, apparently it did not happen then (unless the Pope that you have seen in public is actually a clone, or a hologram, or a cartoon character from a Catholic comic book (educational, of course)). All of this is likely to be a part of the whole cabal “step down” (we’ll soon see what Ben Fulford has to say about that…). Guaranteed, there are tonnes of things going on behind the scenes.

The 85-year-old Pope announced his decision in Latin during a meeting of Vatican cardinals on Monday morning.

“After having repeatedly examined my conscience before God, I have come to the certainty that my strengths due to an advanced age are no longer suited to an adequate exercise of the Petrine ministry,” he told the cardinals.

“I am well aware that this ministry, due to its essential spiriual nature, must be carried out not only by words and deeds but no less with prayer and suffering.

Vatican spokesman, Federico Lombardi said: “The Pope announced that he will leave his ministry at 8:00 pm (1900 GMT) on February 28.”

He said that the Pope was not stepping down because of any specific illness. Depression or uncertainty were ruled out as causes for the resignation.

The announcement was “a bolt from the blue”, said Angelo Sodano, a senior Vatican cardinal. The news apparently came as a surprise, even to the Pope’s close aides.

Greg Burke, another Vatican spokesman, told The Daily Telegraph there would be a new Pope by Easter.
