Knights Templar
| The Knights Templar were a military order, founded by the Catholic Church, to wage a Holy War against the Ottomans and reconquer Jerusalem. The Order of Malta were their rivals and played a role in their suppression. They survived as the bankers of the City of London and Swiss banks and were precessors to modern freemasonry, with an emphasis on John the Baptist, Baphomet and sodomy. Like freemasons, they served to protect a 'Holy Grail' bloodline (House of Stuart-Sinclair, House of Bruce). |  |
They are often glorified and romanticized in Hollywood movies, as heroes fighting a Holy War (Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven) or used in misleading conspiracy theories (bloodline of Christ, Priory of Sion, The Da Vinci Code,..) to discredit the topic as unscientific or ridiculous.
Charlemagne already used Jews
like Isaac Judaeus in Jerusalem to teach Kabbalah
(nasi's princes) and to steal gold. According to
the Bible, Solomon was a worshipper of Ishtarte, worshipped on
high mountains as mount Hermon (connected to fallen angel Lucifer),
Astarte became Mary. They taught knowledge of Thoth/Hermes, sacred
geometry from the east.
1098 Bernard de Clairvaux, a Benedictine monk, founds the
Cistercan Order.
1099 The Dome of the Rock, Mount Moriah = mount Zion
(sun) is conquered by Christians, given
to Augustinians. They call themselves 'poor fellow soldiers of Jesus'
(in the Quran there is a commandment to pray towards Mount
Moriah). Western Europe is an underdeveloped region, compared to the
more sophisticated culture of the Arab world. The aim of the soldiers is
to restore lost kabbalistic knowledge of original Tribe of Dan
Draco-Oion bloodline, to learn Arab kabbalism
(The Templi Domini, near 32nd meridian, the first temple of Solomon and
David was destroyed by Babylonians, 2nd
temple of Zerubbabel destroyed by the Romans, the 3rd temple will be
built at the arrival of a Messiah) and sacred
geometry. The Islamic equivalent of the
Templars are the Hashishim or 'Assassins'.
1119 Hugues de Payens (from Champagne), founds Order of
Solomon's Temple with Fulk Count of Anjou (father of Geoffrey
Plantagenet, rose symbol) and Bernard de Clairvaux, with Al Aqsa mosque
in Jerusalem as their headquarters. Their task is to protect the
pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem, to establish a global monarchy for
their god Lucifer (Venus the rose) Apollyon
of the Book of Revelation 911
(Revelation 9 describes an army of the East). The outer temple is
Christian, inner temple is Luciferian, worship of the horned god
Saturn.
The Earl of Derby and Warwick give land in Essex and Oxford; William de
Ferrers (Tutbury), William Marshall.
1129 Council of Troyes (Troy
Turkey, the Nesilim) The order becomes a knighthood with white
robes like the Cistercians (Bernardines with Piazza del Tempio di Diana
in Rome as hq) with spiritual practices like prayers, fasting, no
contact with women. 2nd grand master Robert Craon de Bourgondier,
son-in-law, Anselm bishop of Canterbury 3rd grand master Everard de
Barre.
2nd crusade. Templars use the sun cross of the druids, which represents
the world axis of 23 degrees. 8 pointed cross represents mother goddess
Isis/Ishtar. The red cross was used by the Aryans and in the Italian
wars by the Guelph dynasty fighting the Ghibelines (white cross red
background), as a symbol of martyrdom and blood sacrifice.
1132 De Clairvaux's disciple Joachim de Fiore visits Jerusalem and Syria.
Louis VII is married to Eleanor of Aquitaine. Philip of Naples joins the Templars.
1177 Saladin, friend of Baldwin (Holy War as sacrifice
to God-Allah saturn) fights against the Nourredin, victory over the Saladin
Ayyubid dynasty (army from the East from Book of Revelation, new Jerusalem,
temple of Solomon). The Templar order is based on strict hierarchy and
obedience to the authority of Master of the Temple, Grandmaster, Grand
Prior. 3 ranks: knight with white robe, red cross, sergeant (blacksmith)
and chaplain (priests). Templars serve as first baron in parliament.
1185 They build the Temple Church in Clerkenwell London
UK, with circle and rectangle
floor plan (the compass and square symbol of freemasonry) 4 inns (inner
temple, middle temple) and are close to the English monarchy of Richard
Lionheart (sells Cyprus to them, which temporarily becomes their base),
who was continuously in debt to Templars. The British crown jewels are
kept in their temple. They serve as tax collectors for the pope and
royal family, punish fraud with imprisonment.
Frederick Barbarossa is loyal to the Knights Hospitalier.
The Templars are an army of the church of 20,000 men to fight holy war
on crusades but 90% are not knight but specialized in banking. The order
works as a multinational, buys large tracts of land, builds large
cathedrals with knowledge of sacred geometry (rose pattern in Chartres
cathedral). The soldiers take an oath of poverty, hide behind an image
of charity but own at least 70 properties, hundreds of villages and
churches and have their own fleet. The main advantages of their
capitalist system is remote payment with a check system, letters of
credit with their own coding. The system of lending properties during
the crusades leads to the right of trust.
1187 Saladin recaptures
Jerusalem.
Bernard De Tramelay is murdered, the Blanquefort is taken prisoner.

(founded 12 years earlier, flag white cross on red background). The
trial was a shock for the French, left a superstition around Friday
13th.
The Templars worshipped the head of John
