In July, news outlets captured video footage of thousands of “migrants” overrunning the Spanish border, nearly all of whom were young Middle Eastern men.
This disturbing event unfolded just one month after Pope Leo XIV gave a speech in the country scolding Europe for failing to uphold “human dignity” while also encouraging the Church to prioritize migrant assistance.
“I want to bow before your dignity,” he said during a visit to the Gran Canary Islands. “The Church, too, must allow herself to be challenged. Welcoming migrants cannot be a secondary matter that is left to a few volunteers.”
While many in the Conciliar Church defended Leo’s remarks as a call for mutual respect and humanitarian aid, former Apostolic Nuncio to the United States Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò had the complete opposite assessment of the situation.
“The planned invasion of the apostate West is not a spontaneous phenomenon, but a diabolical plan of ethnic replacement, of the deliberate destruction of the social fabric, and of the provocation of disorders and civil war,” His Excellency said on X.
“Peoples without faith,” he continued, “without roots, and without identity are immersed in masses of foreigners who share neither the Faith, nor the culture, nor natural law, with the aim of breaking every cohesion and making any resistance impossible.”
The Dispatch
This past weekend, to mark the Feast of the Assumption, Archbishop Viganò shared a meditation on social media calling on the Mother of God to destroy the enemies of the Catholic Church. In his post, His Excellency implored the Blessed Virgin Mary to “crush the apostasy that today threatens” the Church.

Further on in his statement, Viganò referenced Biblical prophecy in describing the situation in Spain, which under General Francisco Franco had upheld Catholicism as the state religion.
Thus is fulfilled the curse that God had already pronounced against His disobedient people:
‘The alien who lives among you shall rise above you higher and higher, while you shall sink lower and lower. He shall lend to you but you shall not lend to him; he shall be the head and you shall be the tail’ (Dt 28:43-44).
His Excellency concluded by noting the “complicity” of “synodal” churchmen, denouncing their efforts as an act of betrayal rather than of charity.
“The synodal Hierarchy, apostate and traitorous, not only remains silent, but is an active part of this infernal design,” he exclaimed. “With its words of unconditional welcome, with its documents that deny the primacy of the Faith and of Christian civilization, with its complicit silence in the face of the erasure of Christianity from families and from society, it collaborates in the ruin of what remains of Christendom.”
