It was almost surreal to read how a group of SSPX seminarians, from the U.S.A. District no less, went off to the Holy Land on a pilgrimage at a time when not that many minutes/miles away, the host (actually parasite) criminal rogue State of Israel was carrying on their demonic genocide/slaughter against utterly helpless civilians. It appears that the story assuming it was placed there has been taken off the District's website. I know however for a fact that the pilgrimage did indeed take place.

The Neo-SSPX operates under Conciliar Rome, using pilgrimages and spectacles to hide the true spirit behind Vatican II and every revolution that has followed, with Bishop Williamson made a convenient scapegoat. The ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan, rooted in Judaism, drives modernist heresy, and the Neo-SSPX’s public displays of comfort and ritual prove they submit rather than resist, producing nothing but rotten fruit.

Yipes! I wouldn’t go near Israel right now. Sure, it’d be wonderful to actually walk where Our Lord walked and so forth. But not under the current conditions. The perpetrators of this evil are those who say they are Jews and are not. It’s sickening, as bad, if not more barbaric than what they cry happened to them 80-85 years ago. “Never again!” Really? Turns out it’s one-sided.

I know however for a fact that the pilgrimage did indeed take place.
Good! Why let Counterfeit Israel control who can and can't go on pilgrimages?

Oh, but I'm sure Israel was more than happy to have the SSPX pilgrimage come in as long as they didn't bring any food or other aid over to the dying Palestinians nor voice any anti-Israel sentiment.

I thought there were priest shortages all over.
-
People in USA are struggling to keep a roof over their heads and feed their families. Many families don’t have the gospel and sacraments while the clergy travel the world. And yet many poor families are paying for the clergy’s follies…
And worse is when civilians are dying at Gaza. How can anyone eat first class food and first class lodging when people in Gaza are starving and homeless??
-
I don’t see the big deal. If the people who are complaining about the suffering in Gaza are bothered by this pilgrimage, why don’t they themselves go there and help. Yeah, I don’t like how the J’s are treating those people, but the Holy Land belongs to the Catholic Church alone, so I look at both sides of the conflict to be wrong.

As a Catholic and having the knowledge that there is a genocide taking place mere miles from the Holy Land, I would not be able to enjoy myself, in fact, I would feel extremely inclined to try and help those starving souls anyway I could. Financially I can not afford to take such a trip but I can at least pray for them.

Think of it this way: there is “genocide” (an over used word to say the least) and suffering in MANY MANY places in the world today. As a matter of fact, most people in this country just have to go down the street to the local “Planned Parenthood” to be a witness to a chamber of horrors akin to genocide. Are we all bound to physically fight to stop this evil or is it more prudent to pick our battles and fight back (perhaps nonviolently) when the time is right?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with a faithful Catholic going on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Actually it is highly commendable.

Hit the thumbs up instead of quote.
I don't think going to the Holy Land is for enjoyment. Excellent place for reparation.

Exactly. A Catholic cannot live comfortably while souls are being starved and destroyed. Our duty is prayer, sacrifice, and action for the reign of Christ. What is striking is that the Neo-SSPX no longer even names the true enemies — the ʝʊdɛօ-Masonic forces behind this destruction. Instead it speaks only of “comfort” and “spirituality.” That silence is betrayal. The Catholic must not be lulled into comfort but remain awake in the fight for souls.

Yes, and it seems that recieving the sacraments, as necessary as thy are, have become the end rather than the means to the end. The sacraments are received to strengthen us to fight. Not just for our own personal and private end but to defend the faith, conversion of sinners and the welfare of others. What happened to the missionary spirit, spreading the faith regardless of the hardships? Establishing hospitals, schools, and dying to defend the truth?
I just could not imagine Our Lord walking in the Holy Land and not caring about the thousands of children being starved to death just walking distance away. He would have at least vocally condemned those Jews committed the atrocities.

I would take it a step further, in that enjoying the sightseeing & tour, while knowing well and purposefully ignoring the Gentile slaughter by zio-kikes is a form of acceptance and complicity.
“Hey, Fr. Asher, How about praying a public Rosary on a street corner for the suffering in Gaza?”
“Sir, are you crazy… we will be arrested and detained!
Move along quietly pilgrims… there’s nothing to see here.”

No one is saying a pilgrimage is a sin in itself. The point is that while the world burns with apostasy, and while Our Lady still waits for the consecration of Russia that Our Lord warned in 1931 would “be done late” like the King of France, the Neo-SSPX parades expensive trips as if Catholic life is tourism. The true Catholic spirit is penance, sacrifice, and combat for the Faith. That is what +Archbishop Lefebvre raised his Society to stand for, and what it has now betrayed by seeking comfort instead of the Cross. Pilgrimages without militancy are empty. This is why the Neo-SSPX is spiritually dead, and why Tradition must continue outside of its compromise.

:pray: Maybe so, but anyone on this pilgrimage if properly disposed, gained graces regardless of under whose sponsorship he/she got there!
