OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES AMBASSADOR TO THE HOLY SEE |
ENCRYPTED MESSAGE |
TO: His Eminence Raymond Cardinal Burke, Secretary of State of His Holiness ( Ender )
FROM: Giovanni Romano, United States Ambassador to the Holy See
Your Eminence,
Respectfully,
Giovanni Romano
United States Ambassador to the Holy See
[/TD][/TR][/TD][/TR]Your Eminence,
I am writing to you at the behest of the State Department. I, and the State Department, are entirely neutral in His Holiness's statements from the Vatican Balcony as we feel they are of a religious nature. However, the State Department did take notice of the defrocking - the literal one - of former cardinal, Jack Daniels, because he is an American citizen. I can only imagine that Mister Daniels has committed one or more awful crimes for him to have been so publicly humiliated in this way. If any of these crimes occurred in the United States and your office has evidence of them, I am requesting that you send such information to me as soon as possible. The Federal Government is interested in investigating and coming to understand the full extent of what crimes he committed against any Americans or entities within the United States.
Respectfully,
Giovanni Romano
United States Ambassador to the Holy See
