''Un complotto per uccidere il Papa entro un anno''/Plot to kill the Pope.

CSFRieti on Feb 9, 2012--
TELE SQUALO. LA CONDANNA DEL VULCANO RIETI CANTALICE. DOCCIA FREDDA. CSF Rieti A plot to kill the Pope, within 12 months. The anticipation of "Made Daily" was made during the Feb. 9 episode of "public service", the transmission of Michele Santoro. The newspaper said a note delivered by Cardinal Castrillon, whose knowledge would be Benedict XVI, who reported what was said during his visit to China from Romeo cardinal, archbishop of Palermo, which talks about a possible attack on the pope. The document, written in German December 30, 2011, was handed the pope a month ago. We would speak explicitly of 'homicidal conspiracy' against Benedict XVI, and even its successor, which would be its 'Dolphin', the current archbishop of Milan, Angelo Scola. "This is clearly ramblings that should not be taken seriously in any way", so the Vatican spokesman, Father Federico Lombardi, described the findings of the document cited in the transmission.

'Plot to kill pope' sparks Italian media storm
Letter published in Italian newspaper claims cardinal predicted Pope Benedict XVI would die within a year

Claims of a bizarre plot to assassinate Pope Benedict XVI are reverberating through Italy in what observers say signals the latest twist in an increasingly cutthroat internal Vatican power dispute.
The Italian daily Il Fatto Quotidiano published the sensational "mordkomplott" letter detailing an alleged plot against the pope on its front page on Friday. Despite a Vatican spokesman's claiming it was "nonsense not to be taken seriously", the content of the anonymous warning letter, dated 30 December 2011, was reported widely in Italian and German media.
The letter was delivered in early January to the Vatican secretary of state, Tarcisio Bertone, and the pope's private secretary, Georg Gänswein, by Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos of Colombia, according to Il Fatto Quotidiano. The paper suggested it had been written in German to avoid attracting the attention of certain Vatican officials while communicating clearly and directly with close advisers to the pope, who is German.
Labelled "strictly confidential for the Holy Father", the detailed letter reports several conversations that Cardinal Paolo Romeo, the archbishop of Palermo, allegedly had with Italian businessmen in Beijing on a trip last November during which he predicted the pope would die within 12 months and suggested his replacement would be Angelo Scola, the archbishop of Milan.
"This seems something so far from reality and not serious that I don't want to even comment," the Vatican spokesman, Federico Lombardi, said when asked for comment by the paper.
But Castrillón Hoyos felt the threat was serious enough that he suggested the Vatican open an inquiry into exactly what was said during the mysterious China trip, which, if it happened, was not widely reported publicly. Hoyos is older than the 73-year-old Romeo, and part of the more traditionalist wing of the church.
According to Il Fatto Quotidiano, these latest revelations are further proof that a messy internal power dispute is unfolding inside the Vatican. Earlier this month, four clerics publicly defended their management of the sovereign, 108-acre Vatican City, in the heart of Rome, after a former deputy governor levelled harsh criticisms of corruption over how bids and contracts were managed.
