ARCHBISHOP WAS A COMMUNIST AGENT
A reader sent in this article from News Scotsman:
A Roman Catholic archbishop was an agent for Slovakia’s communist-era secret service, a government official said today.
Jan Sokol, now the head of the Bratislava-Trnava archdiocese, was registered by the secret service as an agent in spring of 1989, just months before he was appointed archbishop in then-communist Czechoslovakia, said Miroslav Lehky of the Institute of the National Memory.
Prior to that, the service had marked Sokol as a ”candidate for cooperation” for many years, Lehky said.
Bella Dodd would be happy to read that article! She would probably ask how many more?
Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!
