Wish there was a way to verify this letter was written by SSPX priests, and if so, who and how many wrote it!

I suppose since the letter says they want to protect anonymity, we will never know the origins or veracity of the letter.

Did they lose Bishop de Galarreta to Econe yet? If so, I wouldn't have any problem believing its authenticity. One can fully understand their desire for anonymity at this point, with the way things are playing out.

Are you saying that these Latin American priests want to be anonymous because
they think +de Galarreta is going to turn on them now that he's taking sides with
the normalizers, the Menzingen-denizens? If so, what is the connection -- Latin
America speaks Spanish (and Portuguese) and so does +de Galarreta? Remember,
+Williamson was stationed in Argentina for several years recently...........

No, no, no! What I'm asking is "Did Bishop de Gallareta get transferred to Switzerland yet as his punishment for the side he apparently took at the General Chapter, which was not +Fellay's side?"

I do not think Bishop de Gallareta is taking sides with the normalizers; he just hasn't taken an open stand yet, just ask Bishop Tissier has not.

If he has been transferred out of Argentina, that would be one reason for those SSPX priests being unhappy with the current Menzingen regime, and hence their letter.

... has not taken an open stand yet...
Well, it's a little bit too late now to still not have taken an open stand, isn't it? Because the SSPX is dying or already dead, at least from my European crow's nest it looks like the (continental?) European SSPX districts are entirely in the iron fist of the Menzinger betrayers, i.e. they're done.

In America there's at least some public fights. I love it when you show up your French district superior Fr Rostand. Or when Bishop Williamson gives some 100 confirmations in Brazil directly in front of the SSPX locals. Or when his ECs encourage the (SSPX) priests and layfolk world-wide to resist.

We need to pray about this situation.

What some of us hear even here in Asia is what you say, Ethelred, namely, that under Fellay and his stooges, the SSPX is dead as far as Traditional Catholicism is concerned.

Ora ET labora, poche... Most want to stress the "ora" and tend to neglect the "labora," even (unwittingly?) seeking to undermine the labors of those who do the actual dirty work.
