AFTER AGIA SOPHIA, ERDOĞAN CONVERTS ICONIC CHORA CHURCH INTO MOSQUE AGAIN

Istanbul, August 21, 2020

Following the reconversion of the famous Agia Sophia Cathedral in Istanbul into a mosque last month, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan ordered the conversion of another iconic Orthodox Church in the city into a mosque today, reports Hurriyet Daily News.

The Turkish Council of State, which recently approved the conversion of Agia Sophia, initially approved the conversion of the Chora Church into a mosque in November of last year, though that decision was not implemented until Erdoğan issued a decree that was published in the government newspaper today, reports orthodoxia.info.

The transformation of the church-museum into a mosque will go quickly, as was the case with Agia Sophia, officials say.

The Chora Monastery was built in 534 and is one of the oldest historical monuments in Istanbul. The Holy Savior Church is richly-decorated with 14th-century frescoes and mosaics of the Resurrection, the Last Judgment, and others, that are treasured throughout the Orthodox world. It was originally converted into a mosque a few decades after the Turkish conquest of Constantinople in 1453, and was later converted into a museum following WWII.

A group of American art historians helped restore the church’s original mosaics, and it opened to the public in 1958.

FRANCO EL SALVADOR DE JUDIOS, LIBRO A MILES DELLOS DE LAOS CAMPOS

FRANCO SALVADOR DE JUDIOS

El 22 de noviembre de 1975 como corresponsal de la Prensa del Moviemiento fuii invitado por Mr. Willkiam Stricker jefe del Departamento de Corresponsales Extranjeros a un "kadish" (oficio de difuntos) por Francisco Francoi. Mi anfirión me raló una yanulka o kipa en el ocipucio que me sentaba de maravilla ya que la naturaleza me dio un perfil judico y en algunas tiendas del Lower Manhattan me hablaban en yiddish, tomándome por uno de la raza elegida. Nací en el Arco del Socorro al pie de la judería de Segovia una de las ciudades más importantes de Sefarad. Recordad que se dijo en Hervás judíos los más que en Segovia y en Toledo aun más".

Por lo demás, yo tengo recuerdos muy confusos de aquella fecha y ceremonia: la gran sinagoga neoyorquina era imponente y el rabino oficiaba todo de blanco. Pronunció la oración fúnebre con voz compungida. Estas experiencias y la curiosidad que siempre he sentido por Israel me animaron a escribir "Franco y Sefarad ¿un amor secreto?" En él constato el origen judío del caudillo. Muchos se rasgaron las vestiduras, algunos me querían correr a gorrazos. El historiador que me encargó la obra un tal don Luis Suárez se negó a recibirme y tuve que publicar el libro por mi cuenta que se vendió poco y mal pero que es un "scoop". Estoy muy orgulloso de él. Ciertamente el apellido Franco era una manera de designar a los que iban y venían por la diáspora "Caséme con un franco venido de Istambol" reza una viaja jarcha del siglo XV rescatada por Joaquín Díaz en su repertorio sefardí. El padre del anterior jefe del Estado era aposentador de la Escuadra en Filipinas y si miramos las fotografías de sus hermanos Ramón, Nicolás y Pilar veríamos que son rostros familiares que se podrían encontrar por cualquier calle de Tel Aviv. En segundo termino el valiente capitán de infantería tenía algo que es muy propio de los judíos "baraka", esto es suerte a causa de un secreto designio que les resguarda en las dificultades de la existencia. Durante mis años en la corresponsalía de Nueva York tuve ocasión de conectar con muchos hebreos tanto sefardíes como asquenazíes que pudieron cruzar territorios del Reich con pasaporte español. El salvoconducto les permitió alcanzar la tierra prometida de Norteamérica. Hoy el lobby judío es el políticamente más poderoso del imperio, su poder y preeminencia fue creciendo con los años. Sin embargo, no creo que estén muy agradecidos. Su gratitud se expresa "sotto voce" y guiñando el ojo. En Londres a una pregunta de este corresponsal la señora Golda Meir cuando le pregunté lo del establecimiento de relaciones diplomáticas España e Israel (Ben Gurion mandó hacer el boicot al régimen de Franco y fue el virtual responsable del aislamiento y ostracismo en que sumieron a España las democracias occidentales, el gobierno contestó a este judiada con la gran manifestación en la Plaza de Oriente de 1947, nos aislaron poero salimos adelante) que Sefarad era un nombre entrañable para cualquier judío. Es posible. No queremos contradecir a esta líder del Sionismo de origen ruso pero basta con haberse adentrado un poco por los pasillos de la historia para darse cuenta de que hubo una conversión de adictos a la ley vieja que se bautizaron en masa durante los siglos XIV y XV en Castilla la Vieja, que el fenómeno de los conversos o cristianos nuevos fue el molde en que se esculpió el rostro de la Iglesia Católica en Trento. Que la mayor parte de los escritores españoles Quevedo, Góngora, Cervantes, Tirso de Molina, Andrés Laguna autor del Lazarillo eran de origen conversa. ¿El gran Sanedrín no lo perdona como no perdona tampoco el que Franco ganara la guerra? En todo caso yo tuve la suerte de entrevistar en Londres a Arthur Koestler autor del "Cero y el Infinito" miembro del Komitern que habiendo sido habido por las tropas nacionales como espía, era corresponsal del Daily News londinense, y condenado a muerte (fue compañero de celda de García Sabell el de las sacas que mandaba el pelotón de sicarios de las Brigadas del amanecer) recibió el indulto por orden del Caudillo y canjeado por la viuda del capitán Haya. Koestler se consideraba un detractor del Sionismo. Creía que el futuro de Israel está en la diáspora por tratar de ser de un imperio espiritual no un imperio de materialidades. Ví en él a un místico comparable a todos aquellos frailes salidos de los conventos que imbuidos del mesianismo judeoconverso quisieron catolizar al Nuevo Mundo bajo el imperio de la cruz.

Koestler se suicidó junto con su mujer.

BERLIN CAMBIO DE NOMBREE PIO XII PIERDE UNA CALLE EN FAVOR DE GOLDA MEIR

An Papst Pius XII. entzündet sich ein neuer Straßennamen-Streit

Stand: 11.09.2020 | Lesedauer: 5 Minuten

Von Frederik Schindler

Zwei Historiker fordern, für die nach Papst Pius XII. benannte Pacelliallee in Berlin einen neuen Namen zu finden – den der früheren israelischen Ministerpräsidentin Golda Meir. In der Straße residiert ausgerechnet die irakische Botschaft.

Der jüngste Streit über eine Straßenumbenennung in Berlin ist erst wenige Wochen alt. Die einstige Mohrenstraße in Berlin-Mitte soll nun nach dem ersten bekannten Philosophen und Rechtswissenschaftler afrikanischer Herkunft in Deutschland, Anton Wilhelm Amo, benannt werden. Geht es nach den Historikern Julien Reitzenstein und Ralf Balke, steht nun eine neue Umbenennung an. Es geht um die nach dem früheren Papst Pius XII. benannte Pacelliallee im vornehmen Berlin-Dahlem. Die Historiker wollen ihr den Namen der früheren israelischen Ministerpräsidentin Golda Meir geben.

Hintergrund ist die höchst umstrittene Rolle, die Eugenio Pacelli, wie Pius bürgerlich hieß, während des Nationalsozialismus spielte. Tatsächlich war der damalige Kardinalstaatssekretär Pacelli im Jahr 1933 am ersten außenpolitischen Erfolg der Regierung Hitler maßgeblich beteiligt. Am 20. Juli jenes Jahres, sechs Monate nachdem Deutschland nationalsozialistisch wurde, unterzeichneten Pacelli und Vizekanzler Franz von Papen in Rom das Reichskonkordat zwischen dem Vatikan und Deutschland. Pacelli nahm damit auch einen Propagandaerfolg Hitlers in Kauf.

PAPST IM ZWEITEN WELTKRIEG

„Für die einen ist er der Retter der Juden, für die anderen Hitlers Papst“

Reitzenstein und Balke werfen Pacelli zudem vor, die Deportation von Juden in Italien unkommentiert geschehen lassen zu haben. „Weder gab es Proteste, noch hatte er Bischöfe oder Priester dazu aufgefordert, Juden zu helfen“, heißt es auf einer Homepage zur Initiative, deren Inhalte WELT vorab vorliegen. Selbst als Rom von den Alliierten befreit wurde, habe der damalige Papst nicht seine Stimme erhoben. Pius XII. habe zudem aktiv Versuche unterstützt, verurteilten Kriegsverbrechern zu helfen, und etwa um Gnade für einen zum Tode verurteilten Akteur der NS-Vernichtungsmaschinerie gebeten.

Die Initiatoren verweisen des Weiteren auf die Unterstützung von hohen katholischen Geistlichen bei der Flucht der nationalsozialistischen Massenmörder Adolf Eichmann, Josef Mengele und Klaus Barbie und mehrerer Hundert weiterer NS-Kriegsverbrecher nach Südamerika und in den Nahen Osten. Pius‘ Vertrauter Alois Hudal, ein österreichischer Bischof, war einer der Organisatoren dieser „Rattenlinie“.

Die Initiative geht von einer Kenntnis des Papstes von dieser Fluchthilfe aus. „Das macht ihn zum Komplizen all derer, die gesuchten Kriegsverbrechern halfen, sich der Justiz zu entziehen.“ Ob Pius tatsächlich wusste, wem genau über die „Rattenlinie“ zur Flucht verholfen wurde, ist bis heute nicht eindeutig geklärt.

„Gegenentwurf zum absolutistischen Herrscher“

Die Initiatoren der Kampagne wünschen sich, dass mit einer Neubenennung der Allee die einzige israelische Ministerpräsidentin posthum geehrt wird. Eine Golda-Meir-Allee wäre nach der Königin-Luise-Straße tatsächlich erst die zweite Straße in Berlin-Dahlem, die nach einer Frau benannt wird. Bei den Namensgebern der anderen Straßen handelt es sich vorwiegend um konservative Männer, die im 19. Jahrhundert lebten.

Von rund 10.000 Straßen in Berlin sind etwa 3000 nach Männern und nur etwa 500 nach Frauen benannt. In den aktuellen Ausführungsvorschriften zum Berliner Straßengesetz heißt es, dass Frauen verstärkt Berücksichtigung finden sollten.

„Golda Meir hat es als Flüchtlingskind aus einfachen Verhältnissen stammend, als Linke und als Gewerkschafterin an die Spitze einer Regierung geschafft“, sagt Reitzenstein. Meir war im Mai 1948 neben Rachel Cohen-Kagan eine von nur zwei Frauen, die zum Kreis der Staatsgründer gehörten und die israelische Unabhängigkeitserklärung unterzeichneten. Meir wurde im März 1969 zur Regierungschefin gewählt – als weltweit erst vierte Frau in diesem Amt. „Ihre soziale Aufstiegsgeschichte ist ein Gegenentwurf zum Antisemiten und absolutistischen Herrscher Pacelli, dessen Familie vom faschistischen Diktator Mussolini in den erblichen Fürstenstand erhoben wurde.“

VERHÄLTNIS ZUM JUDENTUM

Willy Brandt und ein Makel

Die Initiative verweist darauf, dass Meir bereits im Jahr 1960 den damaligen Regierenden Bürgermeister von Berlin und späteren Bundeskanzler, Willy Brandt, nach Israel eingeladen hatte – fünf Jahre vor der Aufnahme diplomatischer Beziehungen zwischen dem jüdischen Staat und der Bundesrepublik. Und 1973 kam Brandt als sozialdemokratischer Kanzler auf Einladung der Sozialdemokratin Meir nach Israel – als erster deutscher Regierungschef. Dies kann durchaus als Meilenstein in den deutsch-israelischen Beziehungen gewertet werden.

Bereits zum 50. Jahrestag der Aufnahme diplomatischer Beziehungen hatte der Kreisverband Mitte der Berliner CDU gefordert, durch die Benennung eines Platzes oder einer Straße Golda Meir zu ehren. Sie habe den jungen Staat Israel maßgeblich mitgeprägt und sei in ihren Staatsämtern und als Botschafterin eine Vorreiterin für Frauen in öffentlichen Ämtern gewesen, hieß es damals von den Christdemokraten. Im nächsten Jahr soll nun ein Golda-Meir-Steg fertiggestellt werden, der das Prestigeviertel Europacity über den Spandauer Schifffahrtskanal mit dem Ortsteil Mitte verbinden wird.

ADOSINDA

ADOSINDA QUERIDA REINA
Antonio Parra
Fue mi amor asturiano. Adosinda querida reina que duermes hoy en un cementerio reclinado en una cuesta de un pueblo guapo de la cuenca minera entre Pravia y Cangas de Onís y mira para el mogote mágico de Santa Cristina de Lena en al alfombra forestal de los altos montes. Está un poco más allá de bajar la cuesta. Me tiran estos montes. Son sagradas cresterías. Cordales del ensueño. Troníos del ensueño donde estaba el amor que nunca supimos entender al amor que pasó por nuestra vera, se fue y no vino y se transformaron en inmensas moles de piedra viva y nieves perpetuas.
Tú eras espiritu, bosque, arrimo y camino, mirada alta y dos ojos como dos toronjos o dos enramados avellanos.
Eras de la estirpe de las reinas. Podías llamarte Adosinda o Jimena o Gonterodo como aquellas mujeres de los reyes electivos de los astures. Que subían al trono no por sangre sino por meritos. La leude o la hueste visigótica los alzaba sobre el pavés. La monarquía hereditaria como el papado son dos conceptos del mundo merovingio que nada tiene que ver con lo español. Tú, toda reina. Te elegimos o el Amor nos votó a nosotros y en el trueque quedamos favorecidos.
Eras un ideal, la pasión utópica por las cimas canas de Pico Ubiña escoltando el verde encanto de las praderías. Compañeras del alma, amigas siempre.
Peregrino hasta tu tumba cerca ya del mes de los muertos; tú fuiste el ramal que me atrajo al principado. Del hilo al ovillo. Bien mirado tenías algo de xana y de nereida por eso te nos perdiste entre los bosques buscando compañía entre el Nuberu y el Culiebre y de esta manera te transformaste en nube de algodón y luna llena de las hermosas noches de octubre.
Las princesas no mueren nunca y tú eras la reencarnación perfecta de Adosinda. Ni puedo ver las películas de Garci exteriores rodados en todos estos parajes pues me recuerdan las excursiones que hacíamos por aquí primero en un seiscientos y luego en aquel mini en que te venía a ver desde Londres cruzando toda Francia en una noche. Alta y ebúrnea y de Oviedo, moza yo me arrepiento. Amor imposible ¿Cómo te llamabas Marina o Laura o Adosinda o Ximena o Gonterodo? ¿Aguardas la resurrección bajo una lauda de Santianes, o un poco más lejos, arropados al manto tus despojos de Nuestra Señora del Sotrondio?
He traído flores y rosas y sidra que beberé por el camino en el velicomen según las costumbres visigodas para curar las lagrimas del olvido y las largas ausencias de la atonía sentimental. La sidra es la ambrosía, el hidromiel de los dioses. Con ellos, María, tú moras. Ahí estás en el Olimpo.
El amor es más fuerte que la muerte y se transforma en arquitectura y luego en canto coral y de este concento nacen las buenas disposiciones de las partes, la quietud y la querencia que hemos te tener siempre con nosotros mismos. Nunca pude renunciar a aquel desdichado platonismo. España nació a la vera del Sella por estos ribazos aledaños a la puente de Cangas de Onís debajo de cuyo arco, justo sobre el empino, colgaba la misma cruz que siempre llevabas junto al pecho, la Cruz de la Victoria y este amuleto o fetiche apotrocaico de nuestro cristianismo ancestral me hace suspirar por ti María Martínez Zapico y gritar con San Pablo muerte donde está victoria, donde está tu aguijón.
Después miro en mi alrededor y tu ausencia se convierte en tristeza. Asturias ha dejado de ser para mí paraíso. Rodé por las tabernas sin ti. Buscaba tu alma entre las heces del amargo vino.
Traje conmigo en el coche un lacrimatorio que tiene forma de zapico. Allí las vierto todas en la hucha del olvida mientras me columpio en el vaivén de las horas que tienen un letrero que dice:
-Omnes caedunt, ultima necat [1].
O ley inexorable del reloj que marca el tiempo que nos queda.
En esa zoqueta afilo la guadaña de mi espero y me rindo a la suerte que depare mi destino.
Tenías el cuerpo de nube y unos impresionantes ojos de cierva misterioso sonreír que Laura ha heredado. La miro en las pasarelas y veo un calco exacto de ti. Has subido al cielo y te has transformado en templo de las vestales.
De Cangas de Onís donde está la cruz de ónice nos mudamos a Pravia. Así lo quiso el rey Silo nuestro señor. Eran muy piadosos aquellos monarcas nombrados por el pueblo. Se debían de pasar el día metidos en la iglesia con aquellas misas del Cid a la de los gallos cantar que duraban tres horas haciendo genuflexiones y santiguadas de adoración a la Trinidad.
Y tanto es así que uno de los coronados en la iglesia de Sancti Johannes (Santibáñez) lo llamaban Bermudo el diacono. Vega del Ciego adelante golpeo con el bordón las piedras del camino que asciende a lo alto del mogote de Santa Cristina de Lena. Por estas alturas se eleva mi espiritu y encuentro mensajes callados del anima del amor que tú me envías desde otras constelaciones. ¡Ah que siempre fui un soñador!
Me prosterno ante el ikonostasis mientras mis labios trazan con los dedos el signáculo de la doxología trinitaria: vo imia Otsá i Sina i Sikatova Duxa [2]” sobre el ara.
Suenan pasos lejanos en el aire de la basílica recoleta. Y puedes ser tú que enamoras a los mismos Ángeles con tus andares de garza y tus mirares de ternerita. Adosinda querida reina. Amores tuve yo en el Sotrondio marca trágica de toda mi vida.
Otra santiguada y consigo leer el epígrafe del ara fundacional “offeret Lainus Adpodindus abbas in honore apostolorum”. (Lo ofreció el abad Laino Adopindo en honra de los apóstoles) pone en la labra.
Son sitios mágicos todos estos que bordean Covadonga, Peña Ubiña, Peña Mea el Naranjo de Bulnes desde Liébana hasta la cuenca del Eo e incluso tramontándola por Lugo hasta llegar a Compostela que fueron predios de la corte astur. La primera literatura, el primer documento que se conoce vaga por estos tesos como mi amor hacia ti, dulce Adosinda, que derrotará a los siglos. Esculpió a buril en la piedra aquella tarde de mayo en que cayeron cuatro goteres fue el día que me besaste y acaso me desearas de un deseo que nunca se consumó por eso fue todo después mucho más puro. Ya es poso de los siglos que se sienta hierático en majestad sobre los vanos ciegos de la basílica. Poco a poco, María, te transformaste en diosa.
Se apoya entre estos contrafuertes, juega a la luz y la sombra sobre el mainel del alfiz o la filigrana primorosa de esas ruedas de la fortuna y esas toscas rosas de los vientos que marcaron sobre el ara picapedreros del siglo IX.
¡Todo es tan lejano y tan actual, Adosinda querida reina! La hierba en San Julián de los Prados sigue muy verde. Se oye el mugir de un jato camino de la cabaña, guapu ternerín, al que conduce la esquila de la madre que va delante.
No hace falta preguntarse qué es la belleza cuando llegas a estos términos. Basta con abrir los ojos. La reina Adosinda me arrastraba hacia estos sotos hondos. Me dio a beber hidromiel y sidra en el pozo de su pecho. Libé hasta las heces todo el vino del zapico.- y fue en 1968 cuando en pos de ella subí Pajares. Y me liberé.
Me perdí en una romería que había en Brañilín. Había bancos de hierba en lo alto del puerto. Estaba escuchando por primera vez la magia del xiringuelo, la primera vez que bebía sidra y en un porrón, no de escandía. Pero me perdí yo y encontré a mi Asturias. Que desde entonces tira de mí y aquí quisiera venir a entregar a la tierra mis huesos.
No se puede explicar bien todo este sentimiento porque andamos de ronda por lo inefable. Pues de esta manera cómo llegué a la corte de los reyes mansos vasallaticos del califa de Córdoba al que apodaban el emigrante [Aurelio, Silo, Mauregato, Bermudo el Diacono]. Un ángel una noche de fiesta me dio su acolada y desde aquella madrugada soy caballero andante de la reina mi señora Adosinda esposa que fue del rey Silo del que decían ser- bienaventurados los pacíficos y los limpios de corazón- de mansa condición, con la nariz un tanto arremangada y de ahí su nombre Silos que quiere decir chato en latín, y moro por parte materna. Morisco, remachado pero muy asturiano. Ella ingresó en el gran monasterio de Santianes cuando murió su esposo en Pravia, lo mejor del mundo Europa lo mejor de Europa Asturias y lo mejor de Asturias Pravia. A Silo le debemos los españoles y lean si no el magnifico trabajo al respecto de Luis G. Valdeavellano, especialista en el tema aunque no haya superado a don Claudio Sánchez Albornoz la primera carta de privilegio rodado, el primer documento escrito y roborado.
Es una carta de donación por el alma fechada el 25 de noviembre del año 781 – la iglesia de Lena reformada por Ramiro I quizás sea anterior, tal vez del siglo VI pues tiene ikonostasis como las griegas y este lugar de la iglesia luego cede puesto al presbiterio- en virtud de la cual el monarca se compromete a ceder para siembre unos terrenos ribereños a la ría del Eo, en una glera, llera o ería que llamaban Lucis a unos santos varones (el presbítero Pedro, el diacono Abitus y su siervo Lublino) que habían decidido dedicarse a la vida contemplativa. Lucis se llamaba el sitio, buen lugar de anacoretas, escuchando el batir de las olas sobre el mar. Lucis un lugar de luz que desde aquel contrato ilumina las tinieblas de España. Luz que nos guía a nosotros los letraheridos
A cambio los donatarios se comprometían a decir misas de por vida por el eterno descanso del buen rey Silo y de su amada esposa doña Adosinda. Las donaciones post mortem o pro anima son el origen de la gran riqueza inmobiliaria de la iglesia española. A los curas el oficio de difuntos que cabe duda les ha dado mucho dinero y la verdad es que nada tiene de particular; mejor decírselo de mandas de misas que andar a pleitos entre herederos y de ahí viene la frase de ya os lo dirán de misas con la que gustaba amenazar a sus enemigos recordándoles que no somos nada polvo y arena. Y ahora que lo dices un maldito cura se interpuso en nuestro camino. Fue voluntad de Dios pero sin su tercería acaso tú no hubieras muerto ni yo te lloraría. Pero era el destino. Polvo soy enamorado de Adosinda que duerme a la sombra de un ciprés por esos montes de ahí en eso, que nos llevan al gran valle de hondo Ayuso. Queronte aguarda. Ya tengo en mis manos la moneda para dársela al barquero. Juntos cruzaremos la laguna Estigia. Ella fue mi Dulcinea del Sotrondio. Descanse en paz. Por ella entono estos cantos epinicios. Los dos fuimos buenos latinos.
