Last month, on national television, Senator John McCain told Wolf Blitzer that he would create a “No Fly Zone” and if Russia violated it, he would shoot down Russian planes. It is not a stretch to think Russia and the USA could go to war, in fact it is a frightening possibility.

With Russia entering the Middle East with jet fighters and missile launches and catching the United States completely off guard, it is interesting to consider these events through Catholic prophecy.

In 1984, while St. John Paul II consecrated Russia to Our Lady’s Immaculate heart fulfilling the Virgin Mary’s request at Fatima, foreign policy experts were at a total loss on how to explain the collapse of the Soviet Union.

In a recent issue of “Foreign Policy” author Leon Aron investigates the reasons behind the collapse of the Soviet Union and the
end of the cold war. The article is tilted “Everything You Think You Know About the Collapse of the Soviet Union Is Wrong”

Mr. Leon Aron, writes: “Every revolution is a surprise. Still, the latest Russian Revolution must be counted among the greatest of surprises. In the years leading up to 1991, virtually no Western expert, scholar, official, or politician foresaw the impending collapse of the Soviet Union, and with it one-party dictatorship, the state-owned economy, and the Kremlin’s control over its domestic and Eastern European empires.

When Mikhail Gorbachev became general secretary of the Communist Party in March 1985, none of his contemporaries anticipated a revolutionary crisis. Although there were disagreements over the size and depth of the Soviet system’s problems, no one thought them to be life-threatening, at least not anytime soon.” Mr Aron says that most foreign policy experts were “puzzled by its demise.”

Aron writes ” One of the architects of the U.S. strategy in the Cold War, George Kennan, wrote that, in reviewing the entire “history of international affairs in the modern era,” he found it “hard to think of any event more strange and startling, and at first glance inexplicable, than the sudden and total disintegration and disappearance … of the great power known successively as the Russian Empire and then the Soviet Union.” Richard Pipes, perhaps the leading American historian of Russia as well as an advisor to U.S. President Ronald Reagan, called the revolution “unexpected.” A collection of essays about the Soviet Union’s demise in a special 1993 issue of the conservative National Interest magazine was titled “The Strange Death of Soviet Communism.”

But was the collapse of the Soviet Union really a surprise? What Mr. Aron fails to point out is that for those who understand Fatima the collapse of the atheist Soviet Union was clearly predicted and in an amazing fashion world history unfolded exactly as Our Lady of Fatima said it would.

The Blessed Virgin Mary in 1917 warned of the rise of atheism in Russia, but also predicted if Russia were “consecrated to Her Immaculate Heart” a period of peace would follow. Interestingly, the Bishop of Fatima said “The message of Fatima applies to Russia. Fatima and Russia are one.” Cardinal Ottaviani said in 1957 speaking of the secrets of Fatima said “If there was one dominant element to the Third Secret of Fatima , it is Russia.” Our lady in 1917 said “I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of reparation on the First Saturdays. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world.”

Pope John Paul II’s reign was defined by his role in defeating atheist communism, including “consecrating Russia to Her Immaculate Heart” thus fulfilling Our Lady’s wish in 1984.

Pope John Paul II’s close friend, Bishop Hnlinca, said of the fall of the Soviet Union “The present bishop of Fatima once told me, “I was the secretary to the former bishop. I interviewed Lucia, and built the sanctuary of Fatima. At the end of his life he was paralyzed. As his secretary I was also his driver. One time as he limped toward me on his cane and said, ‘Let us bring Mary to Moscow, to Russia!’ I had to laugh. How could we bring the statue of Mary to Russia? Should I drive the car there? A paralyzed bishop with a statue in his hands all the way to Russia?” But today, twenty years later, after the time I spent in the concentration camp in Czechoslovakia, during which we studied the message of Fatima, I understand what the bishop meant in those days: “The message of Fatima applies to Russia. Fatima and Russia are one.”In no country on earth is the Virgin Mary so loved as in Russia, and nowhere are so many hearts praying to her as in Russia. Often I have said to Satan with regard to Communism, “You made a strategic mistake when you chose Russia as the locus of the battle. Russia is the country of Our Lady. Here she is called Bogorodica, which means Mother of God. You will lose in Russia. Already you are on the losing side.”

It is somewhat well known that the apparitions and prophecies associated with Fatima were about Russia. What is less well know is that Medjugorje has a connection to Russia as well. In October of 1981 The Queen of Peace at Medjugorje said “Russia will come to glorify God the most; the West has made civilization progress, but without God and act as if they are their own creator.”

In 1984 Bishop Paul Maria Hnilica, S.J. reported that Pope John Paul II told him that Medjugorie is the “continuation of Fatima.”
