Who: Kevin Annett is a community minister, film maker and author who works with The International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State. His new book “Unrepentant: Disrobing the Emperor” can be ordered on Amazon Books. His website is www.hiddenfromhistory.org
What: In this in-depth 60 mins. exclusive BREAKING NEWS interview, Rev. Kevin Annett sets out the prima facie evidence for Joseph Ratzinger's (Pope Benedict XVI) personal involvement in crimes against humanity involving child abuse and trafficking going back to Vatican II (1962), as well as Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip's personal involvement in the disappearance of 10 aboriginal children abducted by them from a residential school in Kamloops, BC in the period Oct. 5 - 13, 1964 and never seen again in their lives. Learn how the U.K. and the Canadian governments and the Roman Catholic Church were directly responsible for the disappearance of 50,000 aboriginal children in Canada due to a land grab. Rev. Annett explains how no legal accountability has ever been had for these crimes of genocide and crimes against humanity, and how the so-called Truth and Reconciliation Commission in Canada is a white-wash.
In the 60 min. interview, Rev. Annett - in a powerful and articulate indictment of the Roman Catholic Church and the Throne of England - explains how a Public Summons to Pope Benedict was delivered on Sept 18, 2010 at the residence of the Vatican Ambassador to England in south London.
The Summons was issued by the newly-formed International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, which has asked Pope Benedict to appear before its opening hearing on April 4, 2011 in London. Rev. Kevin Annett delivered the Summons to the Papal Nuncio office on behalf of the Tribunal. Other defendants, including Queen Elizabeth II et alios. will be served with similar and appropriate summons.
The Summons asks the Pope to respond to charges that he is complicit in crimes against humanity, child abuse and trafficking, and that he has failed to respond to inquiries into the deaths of more than 50,000 children in church-run Indian residential schools in Canada. A copy of the Summons is below.
The International Tribunal is formed of representatives from many nations, and persons involved in assisting the Tribunal include abuse survivors, legal advisors, retired judges, logistical and IT communications specialists. There are plans to web-cast the proceedings of the Tribunal starting April 4, 2011, via web-streaming. Persons interested in volunteering for the Tribunal in various capacities can contact the Tribunal through www.hiddenfromhistory.org.

Vatican Ambassador to England served Summons to Pope by Rev. Kevin AnnetT
London:
A Public Summons to Pope Benedict was delivered today at the residence of the Vatican Ambassador to England in south London.
The Summons was issued by the newly-formed International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, which has asked Pope Benedict to appear before its opening hearing on April 4, 2011 in London. Rev. Kevin Annett delivered the Summons to the Papal Nuncio office on behalf of the Tribunal. (see attached pictures)
The Summons asks the Pope to respond to charges that he is complicit in crimes against humanity, child abuse and trafficking, and that he has failed to respond to inquiries into the deaths of more than 50,000 children in church-run Indian residential schools in Canada. (see a copy of the Summons, below)
An attempt was made to hand the Summons to the Pope on September 18, prior to a mass at Westminster Cathedral in London, and while security measures prevented a personal delivery, the Summons was read aloud and posted publicly near the Cathedral.
"I would be surprised if the Pope ignored this Summons, since it carries the weight of international opinion and morality" said Rev. Annett today.
"Our Tribunal has been sponsored by groups of survivors of Catholic church torture in five countries, and is securing legal and political support around the world. Joseph Ratzinger cannot evade the fact that he is personally liable for aiding and abetting child rapists within his church."
Following on a similar Tribunal into crimes of the church in 1998 sponsored by a United Nations affiliate, the April Tribunal will be the first international forum to bring actual charges against the Pope and the Vatican.
The Tribunal comes in the wake of a massive protest against the Pope of nearly 20,000 people in London last Saturday, in which Rev. Annett and Tribunal members participated. Annett was interviewed by major media including Reuters, Sky News and LBC radio, as part of a month long speaking tour he is conducting in Europe to build support for the Tribunal.
Rev. Annett and this campaign are based in London. For more information, please contact his press officer, Anna Bragga, at 07861677343 or [email protected] .

PUBLIC SUMMONS
To: Joseph Ratzinger, aka “The Pope” and Pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church
BE ADVISED that you have been listed as a primary witness in an adjudication of a matter before this Court, which is a Tribunal of International and Indigenous Judges. Your presence is hereby requested on Monday, April 4, 2011 at 10:00 am, at a location to be disclosed, in the City of London, England.
Said Tribunal is convened pursuant to international Law, indigenous tribal Law, the Rule of Natural Law and the Law of Nations. Your presence is required to participate in the examination of issues and questions regarding the following matters and charges:
1. Your responsibility and liability as head of the Roman Catholic Church for the crimes of genocide, murder, warfare, forced removal from traditional lands, slave labour, institutionalized racism, theft of resources, child trafficking and pedophilia, and other crimes against indigenous peoples and children, arising from the Indian Residential School system in Canada established and maintained by Roman Catholic Church and the government of Canada.
2. Your failure to reply or respond to a public Letter of Demand issued to you from the Friends and Relatives of the Disappeared dated February 4, 2008, asking that you identify the burial sites and cause of death of children who died in Indian Residential Schools in Canada established and run by your church.
3. Your promulgation and enforcement of a policy of concealing and denying violence and rape against children within your Church, and your practice of actively concealing, protecting and aiding and abetting child rapists and other criminals within your Church, and of thereby perpetrating an international obstruction of justice.
You may desire to consult with your attorney in regards to this matter, or have an advocate attend the hearings with you. You may submit written documents and materials, but be advised that they do not carry the same weight, or can substitute for or replace, your personal testimony.
BE ADVISED that any failure by you to respond to this PUBLIC SUMMONS, or failure to attend this Tribunal, can be interpreted to mean that you do not dispute the charges made against you laid forth in this document and by witnesses and other material, and may result in a verdict against you made in absentia.
Due to the Nation to Nation status of this issue, involving the original Nations of the North American continent as holders of Allodial Title, and its concern with matters concerning internationally recognized Crimes against Humanity, this Tribunal and its findings will be monitored by human rights specialists and representatives of governments, International agencies, indigenous Nations and the public media.
This Tribunal will be open to the public and the media. Its officers will submit its findings in the form of a final comprehensive report to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, the International Criminal Court, and other bodies.

"As a long time front line worker with the Elders' Council at the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre, I stand behind what Kevin Annett is trying to do for our people. The genocide that continues today and which stemmed from the residential schools needs to be exposed. Kevin Annett helps break the silence, and brings the voice of our people all over the world."

"I gave Kevin Annett his Indian name, Eagle Strong Voice, in 2004 when I adopted him into our Anishinabe Nation. He carries that name proudly because he is doing the job he was sent to do, to tell his people of their wrongs. He speaks strongly and with truth. He speaks for our stolen and murdered children. I ask everyone to listen to him and welcome him."
