it looked like a gray cement fortress

Was Sister Lucia familiar with cement when this letter was allegedly written? Was cement a building material she would be in knowledge of?

a three dollar bill.

Guys, look at the margins.  Notice that each paragraph is indented on a straight parallel line and that all the lines of text are perfectly straight.  You ain't going to sell me in twenty zillion bijillion years that that is not a computer printout.  Nobody on earth writes that perfectly unless they are being guided by the hand of an angel.

The text is laughable.  It shows no continuity with the previous parts of the secret.  The words "In Portugal..." are missing, as are the words "in the end My Immaculate Heart will Triumph".

Now, let's carpet bomb this fakery line by line...


       "Now I am going to reveal the third fragment of the secret; This part is the apostasy in the Church! "
The original secret was not divided into parts.  If this line was logical, then, after the vision of hell Our Lady would have said "And now I am going to show you the second part of the secret..."  The dividing of the secret into parts was done somewhat arbitrarily by the postulators of Fatima.  It only became part of the Fatima nomenclature in the mid-'50's.

         "Our Lady showed us a Church, but this was a Church of hell, and an individual who I describe as the 'holy Father' leading a multitude that was praising the devil, but there was a difference from a true holy Father, the gaze, this one had the gaze of evil."
While I agree that Pope Frantic and Pope Benedict both have "the gaze of evil", I find it hard for Our Lady to indicate that this "holy father" was leading a multitude in praising the devil.  I would think Our Lady would simply state something similar to what she said at La Salette: "Rome has lost the Faith and this is Antichrist..."  The sentence is too wordy for a Fatima event.  Notice that the material chastisement is cover by the simple phrase: "Various nations will be annihilated..."

          "Then we saw the same Pope entering a Church, after some moments, but there is no way to describe the ugliness of that place, it looked like a gray cement fortress with broken angles and windows similar to eyes; it had a beak in the roof of the building."
This sentence is way too wordy and also redundant.  It adds nothing to the previous sentence.  This is most unlike the previous part of the secret that we empirically know.

          "Next, we raised our eyes to Our Lady who said to us: You saw the apostasy in the Church."
I suppose the bad grammar may be the translator's fault.  But once again this sentence is redundant.  It adds nothing to the narrative.  If the "holy father" is praising the devil in "the church of hell" we can be pretty darned sure we are seeing apostasy. ;D

          "Because the dogma of the faith is not conserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and delivered to Fatima. The cathedra [or chair] of Rome will be destroyed and a new one built in Fatima."
Oh boy is this off the wall.  .  Now we have Our Lady giving either a prophecy for a pope to fulfill or orders in lieu of a vacant chair of Peter. This is getting as silly as the false secret of La Salette, where Our lady describes the birth of Antichrist.  Some expletives from Dr McCoy might be apropos here, but I'll refrain. 

          "In the kingdom of John Paul II the cornerstone of Peter's tomb will be removed and transferred to Fatima." 

          "This letter can be opened by the holy Father, but it must be announced after Pius XII and before 1960."
Now we are way into sillyland.  These lines are obviously playing off the statement of WW2 breaking out in the reign of Pius XI.  Why does it have to be announced after Pius XII??  Is that because Pius XII was somehow "good pope" and his successors "bad popes"??  PLEASE don't get me started on that one.  For all you Pius XII fans out there, just two tidbits... Fr Bea was this man's spiritual director for years, and Pius XII actually painted this picture of Bishop Carroll and G Washington holding hands in building the USA...  and I could go on and on as to how this liberal was tearing Holy Mother Church apart, especially from 1947 on, while Good Pope John was in many ways an improvement... actually putting Valtorta on the index was most welcome at the time...
      I will agree that Sr Lucia saw something special about 1960.  One can definitely see a difference in Hollywood productions from 1959 to 1961, to say nothing of what was happening to "music". 

If 69 weeks after this order is announced, Rome continues its abomination, the city will be destroyed.
I suppose Romans would be best off heading for the hills in any case, as should anybody in any metropolitan area on the face of the earth.  When the SHTF the average Joe is going to have the life expectancy of Foghorn Leghorn (the Rooster) surrounded by a pack of timber wolves.

 Our Lady told us that this is written, [in] Daniel 9:24-25 and Matthew 21:42-44.

Okay, just for kicks, here is Daniel:

24]Seventy weeks are shortened upon thy people, and upon thy holy city, that transgression may be finished, and sin may have an end, and iniquity may be abolished; and everlasting justice may be brought; and vision and prophecy may be fulfilled; and the saint of saints may be anointed. [25] Know thou therefore, and take notice: that from the going forth of the word, to build up Jerusalem again, unto Christ the prince, there shall be seven weeks, and sixty-two weeks: and the street shall be built again, and the walls in straitness of times.

Fans of Daniel know that this prophecy refers to King Cyrus of Persia conquering Babylon and allowing the Jews to return to Palestine.  The weeks are weeks of years (7 years per week)  and if you count across 70 weeks of years you come up with- bingo!- 490 years from the reign of King Cyrus to the birth of Christ.  Our hero probably wanted these words of Daniel:

[11] And it was magnified even to the prince of the strength: and it took away from him the continual sacrifice, and cast down the place of his sanctuary. [12] And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper.

This prophecy refers to the Antichrist (or false prophet aka Pope Frantic- could be) having power to suppress the Latin Mass.  And we sure as shooting are seeing "truth cast down to the ground",  just consider Donald Duck's campaign and his "presidency".  And just consider some of the "encyclicals" of Pope Frantic.

Now, Matthew:

[42] Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? By the Lord this has been done; and it is wonderful in our eyes. [43] Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and shall be given to a nation yielding the fruits thereof. [44] And whosoever shall fall on this stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.

This does not refer to the end times, but refers to the Covenant being transferred from the Jews to St Peter and the Apostles.

This verse would be more appropriate:

"When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand."
[Matthew 24:15]
