Mystery Cloaks Father Malachi Martin's Death
Note: Not an endorsement
A tragic fall, reportedly
delivered by “an unseen hand”, caused Malachi Martin’s second stroke in twelve
months. Now the world sadly bids a premature, “Adieu” to a great Irish American
priest, distinguished for his life of selfless service to Christ as a long time
champion of the underprivileged, a prolific, controversial author, and alike
Pope Julius III in the days of Trent, a modern day apostle of the Tridentine
Mass and reverential worship. On Tuesday, July 27th, Father Malachi Brendan
Martin silently passed away in Manhattan, only a few days after reaching his
78th birthday.
“I
felt something push me,
but... no one was there.”
but... no one was there.”
Coincidental
or Related? In the months preceding his unsuccessful battle, Father was
rehabilitating from a stroke brought on last Summer. This lesser health attack
closely followed him granting his Website designer, Star Harbor of Texas,
permission to post what is known as “the Medjugorje Hoax” note on the Internet.
When politely asked beforehand for permission to use his words against this
“Satanic” cult, Father Martin replied,
“By all means. Of course
you have my permission to use it.”
you have my permission to use it.”
For the unfamiliar, Unity Publishing is a nonprofit,
lay mission based in Southern California, singularly noted for going against
the tide of the self-proclaimed, fraudulent, vainglorious, and those who’ve
come to be known as “celebrity mystics”, and daring at great personal sacrifice
and risk to expose the errors of such evil ways. In courageously battling the
powerful, incestuous, worldwide clan and lobby of Medjugorje promoters, Unity
Publishing has come under singular and ferocious fire, from con artists hiding
behind the Church’s apron(1), and using God’s most hallowed institution for
their own gain. Alike Father Martin, Unity has been and remains dedicated to
cutting away every evil from the Church, that the true light of God’s Being --
ever-present only in the Most Blessed Sacrament -- might shine through the
lives of every Holy Communicant.
“The Medjugorje Hoax” Note
Before we continue, Father Martin’s note to Unity
Publishing contained a typical hearty thanks, congratulations and blessing for
their work against what “has been a target of my criticism for fifteen years”,
namely, what he called, “the Medjugorje Hoax”, and added, “It was Satanic
from the beginning.”
Father’s casual correspondence, inflammatory to
lovers of this, et al. false apparitions, came after he received
and viewed “Visions On Demand”. This documentary was the first of two Unity
Publishing videos to expose the lunacy and scandals spewing forth from the
volcanic ash of Mount Medjugorje’s unholy dominion.
The Conspirators
On the heels of Father’s initial stroke, a
disgruntled, housewife and Medjugorje sympathizer, Denise Zuppe, his then
“assistant” hired solely to help answer mail, joined forces with Mrs. Kakia
Livanos, a woman the New York Times has sorely labeled Father Martin’s
“companion”(2).
While Father Martin laid in a New York hospital incapacitated from his August
assault, united in purpose, intent, and concerted effort, these two subversive(3) women
conspired, and ultimately collaborated, to deliberately rifle Father’s
apartment of his business effects, personal computer, telephone, fax machine,
stationary and yes, even his pens, pencils and stamps. In one of Father’s few
private phone conversations with a close friend, he revealed that, his “handlers”
had “taken away everything I had to write with.”
Why would anyone do such a thing? Why would two seemingly unrelated women perpetrate a second story job on a priest? Could their actions have had anything to do with the fact that Father Martin was finishing a book set to expose a pervasive evil in the Church -- Satanic pedophilia? Was the spirit compelling them to violate the sanctity of Father Martin’s apartment and belongings little more than the same fallen power dominating the blind hearts and minds of those promoting Medjugorje? Were they sorely upset that he had gone “too public” in letting his anti-Medjugorje sentiments be made known to the world?
Furthermore, we ask... What prompted millionairess Livanos to enlist the aid of a housewife with a paper route (Zuppe)? What drove the former to shut Father Martin off entirely from the world -- one might even say incarcerate him under house arrest -- and deprive this gregarious priest, deeply in love with his fellow man, all human contact? What drove Zuppe to blindly work at discrediting the priest she claimed to love and serve?
We dare pose these questions, knowing that Mrs. Livanos disclosed long before Father’s first mishap that she wanted him to retire. Given Kakia Livanos’ furtive carpe diem conduct, in which she flew a Massachusetts housewife from Boston to Manhattan (on her dime) to be her burglary accomplice, and her insensitivity, to say the least, to Father Martin’s reaction to this crime, we cannot help but wonder how serious Mrs. Livanos was about imposing her will on God’s servant. That is to inquire, “Why should ending Father Martin’s ministry be of any concern to a landlord?” Was she moved by and part of some other scheme? Was she deliberately named Kakia(4) at birth, as part of a yet more nefarious plot to take out God’s privileged and persevering knight?
Father Martin lived and loved to serve the Church. Anyone and everyone who ever met him, if even for only a few fleeting moments could easily see this. It is preposterous to think that Mrs. Livanos did not see and know this. It is even more incredulous to buy the guile that she was merely looking out for his own good by silencing him. After twenty-seven years of association, we can safely say that no one knew Father Martin lived for others more perfectly than Mrs. Livanos, but apparently, she did not care about crushing his spirit. Some who have spoken with her proclaim she seemed to take a delight in it.

“Will you shut down Father’s Website... for me?”
As a brief aside, after Father suffered his first
stroke, the Livanos-Zuppe connection conspired and labored to coerce Star
Harbor into shutting down Father Martin’s Website. When Star Harbor(5)
refused to do so any such thing without hearing from Father Martin, Livanos and
Zuppe then connived to dupe them into taking down Father Martin’s Website by
emailing a letter forged to look like his hand. In truth, this note resembled
another(6)
sent to unity Publishing from Mrs. Livanos in her own hand. In a badgering
after hours phonecall to Star Harbor, Kakia coyly inquired, “Will you shut down
Father’s Website... for me?” Need we say, that the principals at Star Harbor
were and remain aghast at her brazen behind-the-back tactics? They are not
alone.
In the middle of the intrigue to undermine Father Martin’s work, name and reputation, and plot to emphatically close his Star Harbor Website, Livanos and Zuppe pretended that it was “too much for him to maintain”. However, they quickly proved this claim to be ridiculous and no more than an outright lie. This statement was ridiculous, because Father Martin did absolutely nothing to maintain his Website; Star Harbor did it all for him. It was a lie because, in a futile attempt to cancel the positive effects of “the Medjugorje Hoax” note, Livanos and Zuppe fraudulently registered a new domain in his name. Why start a new Website if his original site was “too much for him”?
Using “malachimartin.com” as their handle and electronic base of operations, they promptly proceeded to redefine Father Martin’s persona and teachings by shamelessly daring to pose as him and author ludicrous statements in his name. For example, “Suicide is an act of God’s mercy.” Deliberately implying Medjugorje wasn’t so bad, Livanos and Zuppe unwittingly and proudly revealed their true colors by linking this bogus Website to the Medjugorian site of fellow thieves of Father’s good name, Ted and Maureen Flynn(7). A number of bystanders suspect the Flynns were complicit in the premeditated takeover of Father Martin’s identity from the beginning. They proudly boasted a return link from their site to “malachimartin.com”... and proclaimed they knew Father was upset over his Star Harbor site. Given the fact that Father Martin wanted nothing to do with the Flynns, and avoided all association with them, this prevarication is most illuminating.
Taking a deep breath, need we ask...

Taking a deep breath, need we ask...
“If Livanos and Zuppe weren’t tied to Medjugorje,
why did they create a Medjugorian Website
and associate with Medjugorian promoters
all in Father Martin’s name?”
why did they create a Medjugorian Website
and associate with Medjugorian promoters
all in Father Martin’s name?”
Thank God, were it not for Father’s innate and
cultivated brain power, skillful wordsmithing, and profound insights, these
fumblers might have succeeded... but as fate would have it, their dim wits,
impoverished grasp of the English language and incapacity for true spiritual
insight swiftly demonstrated to all who had come to know and love Father
throughout the years, that their bogus creation could not possibly be the work
of a man so lettered and refined. After including forged articles and
attributing them to Father Martin, their motives became unmistakably distinct.
They were not concerned with Father’s interests in the least... only protecting
their own. In essence, posing as Father Martin in the eyes of the public and
making him out to be an idiot was not beneath them.
Unabated Ire
Insatiably outraged because Star Harbor and Father
Martin’s technical advisors insisted on keeping his Website open until he
instructed them otherwise, Livanos and Zuppe(8) mounted and waged a campaign of
belligerent phonecalls, mail, email and Internet harassments(9),
replete with profanity and unfounded threats of litigation and physical
violence. While Star Harbor held the creative copyright to Father Martin’s
Website, Livanos and Zuppe sought to intimidate them into closing the blinds on
the intellectual property they had taken well over a year to build; all PRO
BONO.
In an attempt to bend Star Harbor to their will and embarrass them into submission, i.e. shutting down, they posted an attorney’s letter on their phony site, disguised as Father Martin’s doing. The idiocy of such a libelous maneuver defies all sense. If Father Martin had distanced himself from the Flynns by merely leaving them alone, what makes any rational person think that he would take to the Internet to publicly humiliate personal friends into shutting down a Website he authorized and blessed?
All this angry move demonstrated was just how ugly and base the spirit behind Medjugorje is. How can we say this? Going back to the beginning, there was no “Website controversy” whatsoever until the Medjugorje crowd got wind of Father Martin’s public stance against them. From that point forward, Father’s health was smitten, thousands of copies of “Windswept House” were inexplicably destroyed, his personal effects were stolen, his friends were hounded to abandon him, he was kept mute under lock and key, and his final writings -- God only knows where his last will and testament is -- remain unseen, unspoken and unheard.

Truth - Greater than Fiction
Before we close, it should be clear to anyone with a
grade one I.Q. and knowledge of human nature and Father Martin, that if he had
truly wanted Star Harbor to shut down his Website he would have simply
instructed them to do so. Instead, one day, when able to secretively secure a
private phoneline, he had enough time to tell them in an uncharacteristically
weak voice, “I’m having difficulty talking.... Let’s continue to do God’s work
together.. and talk next Tuesday.” Tuesday’s phonecall never came, and that was
the last time his servants at Star Harbor ever heard from him.
Portrait of A Lie
Are you receiving a clear picture? Do you see the
reason for our questions? They remain unanswered. Can you comprehend the angst
of his close friends, Spiritual Director and allies; all left completely in the
dark over the last year of Father Martin’s imprisonment, only privileged to
hear the propaganda Livanos and Zuppe would leak from time to time? Do you
agree that something isn’t right with this picture? Why would Father Martin’s
words, “Let’s continue to do God’s work together.” -- uttered from his own
mouth, in his own voice -- contradict the words of Livanos and Zuppe, unless
their scheme to silence him was, under the pretense of caretaking, nothing more
than a PORTRAIT OF A LIE.
Under the guise of keeping their patient quiet, Livanos and Zuppe persistently labored to thwart EACH and EVERY person close with Father Martin away from him. They both evaded every question of his well-being, and even denied his friends the opportunity to speak with Father when he proved to be present at their call(10). These two ladies, Kakia Livanos in particular, made it their special interest and mission to especially deprive him contact from those who had brought him the most joy before his mishap. For certain, recovering from a stroke mandates rest and relaxation... HOWEVER... who ever heard of therapeutic solitary confinement? No one gets better in jail.
Over the course of Father’s rehab, it became manifest that he was healthy enough to speak with select individuals, e.g. an FBI investigator probing the death of Fr. Kunz... a young seminarian... and a token few others. After these visits, he was always reported as doing well and suffering no visible effects of his initial setback. Are we the only ones who take pause in asking, “Why was your Spiritual Director shut off, Father Martin?” Why did Livanos and Zuppe make a point of cruelly telling your former nurse of twenty-five years that she was “fired”? “How did you come to be surrounded by such evil, ill-intentioned souls?” “Were your forthright and challenging words -- “IT WAS SATANIC FROM THE BEGINNING.” -- too much for the Medjugorje powerbrokers to swallow, the beginning of your end?”

Words Never Spoken, Song Never Sung
Earlier this year, the meddling Medjugorian, Zuppe,
told Unity Publishing that Father Martin would unravel the controversy
regarding his Web presence on an Art Bell radio broadcast. [Father Martin held hopes of welcoming Art Bell into the
Church.] Regrettably, alike so many idle threats, this one never
materialized. C’est dommage! We would have welcomed the opportunity to hear
Father explain the tale of the tape, and declare for all the world to hear
where he truly stood regarding Medjugorje and the pretenders making him out to
be one of them. And yet, under the circumstances of his solitudinous final
days, unusual fall and lethal blow, it’s not a stretch of reason to wonder if
those opposed to Father’s mighty, priestly pen might not have had foreknowledge
-- or at least a participatory premonition -- of his demise. To think otherwise
is to rule their threats utterly inane and insane. To suspect a sinister
foresight controlled their proud tongues is more plausible. In criminal
circles, this is especially so. Premeditation makes psychopaths more
psychopathic.
Year of Silence
What remains most unfortunate, sad and unaccountable
in all this is, “Why did Father Martin seemingly accept his imposed silence
this past year? Was he merely utilizing this time to make his final peace with
his Maker, was he simply unable to overcome his opposition, or is there an
intrigue running far beneath any question we can wittingly compose? Did he know
too much to speak? Did he know enough to keep quiet?” While the answers to these
ponderances have seemingly gone to the grave with Father, his silence in time
remains a mystery, not adequately explained away by the minor stroke preceding
his enigmatic fall.
My father had five heart attacks and I am quite familiar with their consequences and debilitating factors. So exposed, I know that on the same day of a muscle damaging heart attack, heart patients are commonly able to talk. Although they should avoid overexcitement, they can, should be and are, in virtually every medical institution, allowed to talk.
Instead, as you now know, locked away from those closest to him, Father Martin was forced to remain speechless for nearly a year, and abide the debatable caretaking and blatant mishandling of Kakia Livanos and Denise Zuppe.

O God, Bless and Keep Thy Servant
in the Heart of Thy Loving Son
in the Heart of Thy Loving Son
We prefer to let the great, witty, humorous and
inimitable spirit of Father Malachi Martin rest in peace, but the unreliable
answers tied to his last days compel us to speak out about what we’ve learned.
Perhaps, armed with this little knowledge, Father’s true friends will discover
the who, what, where, when and why of how he was taken. We doubt it was his
ordained time, although our heavenly Father permits evil, that all may become
stronger opposing it
At the time of Father’s first stroke, he was taking a stroke-inhibitor medication proven to be better than 90% effective. Of course, he could have simply been of the smaller percentile, but given his virility, verve, zest for life and indomitable will to serve, all who knew him concur that his spirit of love in and for God was strong enough to overcome any such statistical challenge.
After the first stroke, why was Father Martin silent so long without speaking with those who cared for him? Why did he seem to avoid his Spiritual Director and closest friends? Likewise, why didn’t he ever phone us? If he truly endorsed the Livanos-Zuppe Website, and truly wanted Star Harbor’s site(11) closed, we would have gladly obliged his will with a mere phone call.
Also... Why was Father Martin’s signature forged during his recovery? Why did Livanos and Zuppe conspire to forge “malachimartin.com” using his name and credentials -- without his knowledge -- and contradict what he had already written and signed against Medjugorje, unless they stood against him and for the Croatian nightmare known as Medjugorje? Are we the only ones to suspect that Father was, figuratively speaking, sleeping with the Enemy? Logic prevents us from reaching any other conclusion.

“Et tu, Brutus!”
Who were the two women that Father trusted with his
life and belongings? What spirit motivated them to perform seemingly bizarre,
criminal and covert acts? In their minds, they may have believed they were loyal
and loving souls with Father’s interests at heart, but their actions
dramatically argue otherwise.
And now, according to informed sources, who value their anonymity, Father’s last book(s) will NOT be published. On the subject of publishing, thousands of copies of “Windswept House” were destroyed, and Father was prevented from speaking out or writing his mind about these incidents to anyone. Once more, his landlady, Kakia Livanos forbade it. Even when he lay dying, she forbade consoling words to reach Father and news about his condition to reach the public... right up till the day he died.
Reiteratively, Kakia Livanos was Father Martin’s benefactress (patron of the Arts) and landlady, who provided him room and board and the oratory where he said daily Mass. She was not Roman Catholic but Greek Orthodox, and of a family that owned several Greek shipping lines. We and all of Father’s friends are sincerely indebted and grateful that she gave him a sanctuary from which to do God’s work, but we wonder if her possession of her tenant became unduly harmful to his health.
Denise Zuppe emailed Phil Maguire, a reporter from Australia, that only select people were allowed to go upstairs to visit Father Martin. Why weren’t his friends so privileged? Was Livanos apprehensive the more enlightened among them would pick up on her hidden agenda? Furthermore, did Father know and approve of her restrictions and visitor selections? Because he was only able to smuggle out a few scant last words, we solemnly doubt it.
We’d like to think that Father Martin’s handlers cared for him and intended to protect him, but their methods of health care leave much to be desired, and cause rational men and women to ask, “What in God’s name were they thinking about?”

Father’s Parting Blow
In one of his last coherent acts, Father Martin
fired his entire staff. Was he then healthy enough to arrest those who set out
to damage his good name in defense of Medjugorje? We think so. We also propose
that he was nevermore a threat to the evil he opposed then in that moment.
|
Soon after wielding Saint Michael’s Sword into the
Heart of the Medjugorje camp, and vowing to expose the villains in his tell-all
last book, Father felt a spectre push him... and then he fell.
Though he rests beyond time now, depriving many of his compassion, genius and warm presence, Father Martin’s final act of resistance substantiates the validity of this newsletter, and suggests that Livanos and Zuppe did much more than try to silence him. They kept him in the dark about their machinations. With good cause. Father Martin would have fired his staff months before had he known then what he discovered too late -- the Enemy was within.
In facing the visible and invisible world undaunted, Father honored his holy ancestors. In fighting the good fight till the end, he honored God’s Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. His final act of opposition to his staff exposed their sheeplike cloaks as belonging to the genus WOLF, and declared that he would not stand still as long as evil existed anywhere. In letting them know he disapproved of what they had done, in calling the Devil by name as he was want to do within a Holy Exorcism, Father did not go out with a whimper (as his foes desired), rather he violently ripped a hole the size of an ocean through the veil of time like an atomic bomb delivered from a distant star; the fallout from his thunderous blast and parting left to come.

The Man Who Knew (and said) Too Much
Father Martin knew firsthand about the long-planned,
Satanically-orchestrated infiltration of homosexuals and pedophiles into the
American Catholic Church. He understood they were most likely behind the
brutal, ritualistic murder of his friend, Father Kunz -- butchered alive for
not merely possessing like knowledge, but because he was prepared to reveal a
list of names and events to Church authorities. In the same manner, Father
Martin was readying to blow the whistle on this deviant subculture in his last
book. As in a Grisham novel, Father was ever the archetypal hero, growing more
courageous the greater the danger, yet ever-tested to not underestimate his
opponent.
As we pine the loss of a great warrior for the salvation of God’s children, we’re left feeling uneasy with so many remaining questions. We cannot accuse or prove anyone deliberately set out to take over his identity. These things sometimes just have a way of happening when lesser plans go awry. Maybe the phrase “the Medjugorje Hoax” was simply too unbearable for the proud Enemy
And still, we hope and pray Father Martin rests in peace in the loving arms of Our Lord. May he more powerfully intercede for all who remain, that we may come to love what he did more than anything: defending God’s Church on earth and saving souls.

A Strange Coincidence
George Livanos, a leading ship owner and one of
Greece's wealthiest men, died a few days after Malachi Martin’s death. A member
of this eminent shipping family from the Aegean island of Hios, Livanos was
born in New Orleans in 1926. He founded the Greek hydrofoil company known as
“Ceres”, a fleet of 110 vessels, all registered and sailing under the Greek
flag.

I would like to close by saying, that knowing the caliber of his friends -- Father Charles Fiore, Dr. William Marra, Father Alfred Kunz, Stephen Brady, Paul Likoudis, Jerry Matatics, Michael Davies, Father Fitzgerald, Cecile Powell, Tom Fitzgerald, and many others -- Father Malachi Martin must have been a great and holy man. Judged by the company we keep, he kept company with the brightest and best men and women of our day.
Eager to explore timeless and deep theological questions effecting our world, I regret we weren’t able to meet before his death. I’m also convinced, of like mind and spirit as Father’s God-fearing friends, that we would have come to perfect agreement on many subjects, and enjoyed spiritually slaying infidels together.
Father Malachi genuinely loved people and Holy Mother the Church. Gentle, sage and kind, he was ever ready to answer any question or attend to any need. He was a good and holy priest, a man after God’s heart. May he rest in the Light of God.

Foot Notes:
(1) The apron has
long been a Masonic symbol. Aware of the spurious background of the power elite
promoting Medjugorje, along with a host of other decadent deceptions -- all for
the price of money and blood -- we’re not at all convinced that this global
Hoax does not stem from Masonic and Communistic roots. The allegory to the
apron is not casually or undeliberately employed. We do not intend to imply
that the Church is run by Masons, nor that this is the sole purpose of the
Medjugorje Hoax. We are proof positive that, the founders and messengers of
this deception are little more than a band of sorry brigands of the truth,
consumed by love of impure sex, money and drugs. Employing mind manipulation
techniques reminiscent of Nazi Germany, they resemble a bunch of hooligans
sadly given free reign to terrorize the very heart of the Church -- God’s
children -- with awful untruths.
(2) While Father
Fiore has written a justifiable, articulate and respectful defense of Father
Martin (for which all who love him are grateful), and in so doing, implied
defense of any sexual misconduct on the part of Livanos, given the latter’s
behavior during the course of Father’s last days, it remains uncertain as to
how much or diligently she singularly labored to force her longtime tenant to
give up his pen, slow down and quit his priestly service. While she apparently
maintained the posture of a dignified, aristocratic landlord, it is
questionably unclear whether she was taken in by the Medjugorje crowd and duped
into believing that Father Martin’s friends were his enemies... or... whether
there was some other intent lurking behind her insistence on and penchant for
silencing the priest who humbly resided under her roof. In truth, Kakia Livanos
did far more than shelter Father Martin. She not only prevented him from
sharing his last words with the world... but also, most notably, particularly
forbade those closest to Father any access to him whatsoever. Under the weight
of these undeniable facts, it is nigh impossible to believe that such a
domineering and incarcerating personality was not either misled, or worse yet,
misleading.
(3) Father Martin did not learn of the theft and destruction of his effects until he was released from the hospital -- into Mrs. Livanos’ custody no less. We know he was outraged and upset. What human heart cannot imagine the anguish, disappointment and torment this betrayal caused him? We dare ask, “Was the violation of Father Martin’s property the act of someone who cared about him, or behavior more indicative of people who wanted him out of the way?” Think what you will, it remains, once again, almost lunacy to believe that any sensible and caring person could be so callous and cruel. We think that piracy in any form, disguised under any feigned innocence, remains piracy. If Mrs. Livanos was merely Father Martin’s landlord, what gave her the right to behave so criminally? Was she, in effect, threatening to evict Father? Was her unconverted heart simply tired of boarding a man of God? Feel free to write us your thoughts. Maybe collectively, Father Martin’s handcuffed friends will get to the bottom of this sorry affair. We write to clear his name of any wrongdoing associated with those who conspired against him. Their acts to defy his wisdom and rewrite his legacy were theirs alone.

(4) “Kakia”, kakia
{kak-ee'-ah} was given a Greek name that means -- “the woman of an evil
spirit”. Certainly, no Christian would be desirous of such an appellation.
Because Father Martin was continually involved with the underworld, we wonder
if he was not unsuspectingly “boarding with the enemy”. What do you think?
(5) Father Martin
had contracted Star Harbor directly to create and maintain his Internet
presence. He expressed his confidence in their art and spirit by saying, “Do
whatever you want. I trust you.” He never once instructed them to take orders
from Zuppe, and certainly would never have suggested they take instructions
from his landlady.
(6) The documents referenced in this newsletter have been conveyed to civil authorities. It remains with the government to decide if any further investigation of wrongdoing will be conducted. We have no knowledge of their plans or intentions.
(7) The Flynns conned Father Martin into writing the foreword for their book “Thunder of Justice”, by failing to inform him that they would promote Medjugorje in it. In truth, they convinced him it was to be a book about the true apparitions of Our Lady. When the book came out and their lie was exposed, Father Martin labored for years to distance himself from them. Sadly, the Flynns persisted in their lie and feigned that Father Martin and they were close friends. A correspondence from Father Martin regarding his desire to have nothing to do with these two, was copied in part, doctored, and then sent to Star Harbor as if it were written Unity Publishing. This forgery is in the safe keeping of several of Father’s confidantes.

(8) We say “Livanos
and Zuppe” because Livanos the bogus Website was registered with an American
Express card Father Martin was quick to proclaim was in his name but paid for
entirely by her. Zuppe was the hapless creator of “malachimartin.com” and
pretender to his name and mind.

In
one of her harassing phone calls to Star Harbor, Father Martin walked into Mrs.
Livanos’ kitchen. Instead of putting Father on the phone and ending her
contrived controversy right then and there, she boldly said in a hushed voice,
“Father just came in the room. Would you excuse me, please?” After hustling him
from the room, with no mention of who she was speaking with, she returned,
profaned God’s Holy Name with respect to Father Martin’s friends, and persisted
in demanding, “Will you shut down Father’s Website? Will you do this for me?
I’ll accept responsibility for it.” Though phrased as an innocent question, it
was delivered as an imperial command.
(11) Before hanging up, Livanos indicated that she had the power to shut the bogus Website down, but... it remained open throughout her personal assault on Star Harbor. In fact, the more Star Harbor stood by Father Martin, the more crazed and incomprehensible became the alter Malachi Martin identity Livanos had Zuppe create on the Web.

In
the midst of the Livanos-Zuppe onslaught, Star Harbor passed their copyright to
the Malachi Martin Website to Unity Publishing.
Regarding
Garabandal: Father Martin was close friends with one of the children of
Garabandal living in Manhattan. He respected her obedience
to the Church, and disclosed privately that she was not convinced what
she experienced came from God. We suspect, if he defended this disproved
apparition in any way, as a firsthand witness to the piety of his friend, he
was more influenced by her singular virtue.
However, not knowing his mind on this
matter, if he was taken in by Garabandal's false claims, this error in judgment
only proves the adage that, "No man is infallible." Without a doubt, Father was singularly devoted to Our Lady of Guadalupe and
the Blessed Virgin Mary under her Church approved titles. In support of
Garabandal, was he biased by friendship to not embarrass his friend? Perhaps.
This would not be uncharacteristic. But even if deceived in this area, he does
not stand alone among the saints who were similarly mistaken.... BUT... What's
most important, this lone viewpoint did nothing to diminish his capacity for
defending Holy Mother the Church from a preponderance of assaults and errors.
Learning from Father's example, may we
all pray daily,
"Lord,
don't let me be deceived or deceiving."
