I must turn my eyes to the Middle East. Dare I speak of hope for those forsaken countries where Satan has purposely destroyed every source of hope? The structures necessary for life have been demolished and the normal securities destroyed. What is left? How will these nations ever rebuild? How can the people enjoy any level of normal human life? With every bullet fired, hope is killed again and again.

The solution does not lie in treaties which only paper over the truth. The deep forces of Satan must be rebuked and cast out, just as Jesus confronted Satan at every meeting. How will this happen? Only my pope, together with the whole Church, is able to bring about such a deliverance. Only the Woman Clothed with the Sun holds in her hands the divine power to bring about peace in the Middle East.

This freedom from Satanic hatred and death is not the work of one day or of one year. It will result only from a long series of events, mainly within the Church itself, that will bring about the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart. Russia is the key to peace in the Middle East.
