One of the top graduates of the U.S. Naval Academy and a former nuclear submarine officer as well as spokesman for the Atlantic Fleet was just interviewed by Life Site News. Cmdr. John Sharpe, Jr. (son of Judith Sharpe who runs the trad Catholic website ISOC – In the Spirit of Chartres Committee) who has been spoken of various times over the years on CathInfo (most recently at Judaism and the Vatican by John Sharpe - The Library - Catholic Info) was named by the SPLC as one of their Catholic "Dirty Dozen" for supposedly preaching anti-Semitic hatred (whatever that is).

Thank You, John Sharpe.Listening to the thunder, reminded me of whaat I am reading now, "The True Story of the Vatican Council", by Cardinal Manning. Page 89 ...the fathers struggled through the storm, while the thunder pealed above and the lightning flashed in at every window, and down through the dome and every smaller cupola, "Placet"! shouted his eminence or his grace, and a loud clap of thunder followed in response, and then the lightning darted about the Baldacchino and every part of the church and Councilar hall, ...So in continued for nearly one hour and a half....Had all the decorators and all the getters-up of ceremonies in Rome been employed, nothing approaching to the solemn grandeur of the storm could have been prepared, and never will those who saw it and felt in forget the promulgation of the first dogma of the Church.Other critics saw in the thunderstorm an articulate voice of divine indignation against the definition They forget Sinai and the 10 commandants.

Commander John Sharpe joins John-Henry Westen for a frank look at how Catholic just war teaching collides with modern U.S. foreign policy. A decorated Navy officer, Sharpe recounts his own “cancellation before it was cool” after opposing the Iraq War, drawing on Aquinas, Vatican II, and Leo XIII to argue that America’s wars often fail the tests of just cause, last resort, and proportionality.

He exposes how leaders exploit fear, like the infamous “mushroom cloud” threat, to bypass moral analysis, leaving soldiers, families, and nations scarred. The conversation ranges from the false logic of punishing nations for possible future crimes, to the bipartisan collapse of moral coherence that saw Pat Buchanan and Noam Chomsky aligned against Iraq. With ties to Versailles, the Balfour Declaration, and today’s Middle East turmoil, Sharpe urges Catholics to reject propaganda before another war is waged under false pretenses.

John's wife shared this with me a couple of days ago. I am looking forward to listening to it when I have a little more time on my hands. Thank you for sharing here!
