A U.S. citizen has been arrested in Rome on suspicion of prolific child sex abuse after he was caught raping a 14-year-old boy, according to Italian newspaper reports.
The man, said to be a 52-year-old Boeing engineer from Chicago, has allegedly spent a month luring scores of young teenage boys to a rented apartment near the city's Termini station, which has become an epicenter for illegal immigrants, underage prostitutes, and criminal gangs.
He paid the victims - mostly North African and Romanian migrants, some Italian - between €50 and €150 for sex, the Interior Ministry told Il Messaggero.
His arrest concludes a two-week police investigation into reports that a foreign man was seen skulking around the station every night scouting young boys for sex, according to official statements. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>>>

Beelzebub's On Board Air Canada #AC549! Loss Of Pressure At 36,000 ft Rapid Descent To 10,000 ft Diverting To Toronto
Voices will be heard in the air. Men will beat their heads against walls, call for their death, and on another side death will be their torment. Blood will flow on all sides. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)
The darksome atmosphere is as a prison to the demons until the judgment day. They carry fire of hell with them wherever they go. The devils besought the Lord not to cast them into the abyss; for they asked for this, deeming it to be a punishment for them to be cast out of a place where they could injure men. Hence it is stated,They besought Him that He would not expel them out of the country. St Thomas Aquinas

The demons of the air together with the Antichrist will perform great wonders on earth and in the atmosphere, and men will become more and more perverted. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)

Summa Th. I EN Qu.64 a.4
Article: 4 Whether our atmosphere is the demons' place of punishment?
Objection:
1. It would seem that this atmosphere is not the demons' place of punishment. For a demon is a spiritual nature. But a spiritual nature is not affected by place. Therefore there is no place of punishment for demons.
2. Further, man's sin is not graver than the demons'. But man's place of punishment is hell. Much more, therefore, is it the demons' place of punishment; and consequently not the darksome atmosphere.
3. Further, the demons are punished with the pain of fire. But there is no fire in the darksome atmosphere. Therefore the darksome atmosphere is not the place of punishment for the demons.
On the contrary Augustine says (Gn ad lit. iii, 10), that "the darksome atmosphere is as a prison to the demons until the judgment day."
I answer that The angels in their own nature stand midway between God and men. Now the order of Divine providence so disposes, that it procures the welfare of the inferior orders through the superior. But man's welfare is disposed by Divine providence in two ways: first of all, directly, when a man is brought unto good and withheld from evil; and this is fittingly done through the good angels. In another way, indirectly, as when anyone assailed is exercised by fighting against opposition. It was fitting for this procuring of man's welfare to be brought about through the wicked spirits, lest they should cease to be of service in the natural order. Consequently a twofold place of punishment is due to the demons: one, by reason of their sin, and this is hell; and another, in order that they may tempt men, and thus the darksome atmosphere is their due place of punishment.
Now the procuring of men's salvation is prolonged even to the judgment day: consequently, the ministry of the angels and wrestling with demons endure until then. Hence until then the good angels are sent to us here; and the demons are in this dark atmosphere for our trial: although some of them are even now in hell, to torment those whom they have led astray; just as some of the good angels are with the holy souls in heaven. But after the judgment day all the wicked, both men and angels, will be in hell, and the good in heaven.
Reply to Objection:
1. A place is not penal to angel or soul as if affecting the nature by changing it, but as affecting the will by saddening it: because the angel or the soul apprehends that it is in a place not agreeable to its will.
2. One soul is not set over another in the order of nature, as the demons are over men in the order of nature; consequently there is no parallel.
3. Some have maintained that the pain of sense for demons and souls is postponed until the judgment day: and that the beatitude of the saints is likewise postponed until the judgment day. But this is erroneous, and contrary to the teaching of the Apostle (2Co 5,1): "If our earthly house of this habitation be dissolved, we have a house in heaven." Others, again, while not admitting the same of souls, admit it as to demons. But it is better to say that the same judgment is passed upon wicked souls and wicked angels, even as on good souls and good angels.
Consequently, it must be said that, although a heavenly place belongs to the glory of the angels, yet their glory is not lessened by their coming to us, for they consider that place to be their own; in the same way as we say that the bishop's honor is not lessened while he is not actually sitting on his throne. In like manner it must be said, that although the demons are not actually bound within the fire of hell while they are in this dark atmosphere, nevertheless their punishment is none the less; because they know that such confinement is their due. Hence it is said in a gloss upon Jc 3,6: "They carry fire of hell with them wherever they go." Nor is this contrary to what is said (Lc 8,31), "They besought the Lord not to cast them into the abyss"; for they asked for this, deeming it to be a punishment for them to be cast out of a place where they could injure men. Hence it is stated, "They [Vulg. 'He'] besought Him that He would not expel them [Vulg. 'him'] out of the country" (Mc 5,10).

American Airlines flight from Rio to Miami makes 'emergency landing' in Brasilia: Second flight grounded in days after 'passengers suffer mystery illness'
A second American Airlines flight may have been forced to make an emergency landing after passengers became ill. Flight AA904 was travelling from Rio de Janeiro to Miami around 11pm yesterday when it diverted to Brasilia. One passenger has now claimed the decision was made after crew members and travellers were struck down with a mystery illness. It comes just days after an American Airlines flight to Los Angeles was forced to return to London Heathrow after seven members of staff and six passengers fell ill. The passenger told MailOnline: 'We are currently still in Brasilia where we made an emergency landing because crew members and passengers passed out and became unwell. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>>

The mystery of Flight AA109: Passengers and crew falling like flies, an official testing the air before paramedics were allowed on and luggage confiscated for analysis. So what caused the emergency?
Mystery still surrounds why a flight attendant collapsed and seven other people were taken ill during a mid-air drama above the Atlantic. Panicked passengers told of the scary moment a plea went out for any doctors onboard before the captain of the American Airlines flight declared a 'medical emergency' and returned to London. Emergency vehicles were scrambled and, once on the ground, the aborted Los Angeles-bound flight was escorted to the Heathrow terminal before passengers were told to remain in their seats. It has since emerged that those onboard were not allowed to disembark, nor paramedics allowed on to treat those unwell, until tests had been carried out for any 'elevated levels of substances' in the cabin air - analysis that yielded no answers. All luggage was then confiscated for 'checks' by American Airlines and Heathrow authorities, but passengers were kept in the dark as to the motive for doing so. Daily Mail Read More>>>>>

"Our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against Principalities and Powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places." Ephesians 6:12
But here is something to consider - if my take on what St. Thomas Aquinas says is true
- that men must not pass over 29,050ft (15 cubits above the mountain tops) boundary established by God.
- the habitat of demons is in the darksome atmosphere.
Then men flying 24/7 above the boundary established by God will sooner or later will be punished with the assaults of demons for invading their space. Call it Demonic Possession flying above 15 cubits above the mountain tops.
What to expect?
Increased bizarre behavior on flights.
You can blame the increased bad behavior on alcohol or on drugs or just more crazy people flying. And calls will be made to prohibit alcohol on flights or drug tests administered by TSA. Which of course will not curtail the bizarre behavior. Simply because this behavior is caused by poor souls being possessed by demons.
Here is what was said about the women on the flight from NYC to Chicago:
Fitzsimmons says her voice sounded "demonic" and that he believes she was having some sort of psychotic episode.Will probably read more of these incidents where witnesses testify to the fact that the unruly passenger acted as if possessed etc...
One last observation... maybe its just a coincidence or something more - the flight was diverted to ROMULUS, Michigan - yea I'll take that as slight at the demons in the darksome atmosphere who work their best to hinder the restoration of the Divinely Ordained Authority of the Holy Roman Emperor - why? Because the visible manifestation of the Holy Roman Emperor hinders the manifestation of the Antichrist - which the demons of the darksome work for - the manifestation of the Antichrist and so on....
Passengers tie up, hold down unruly passenger on diverted Detroit flight
ROMULUS, Mich. (WJBK) - Authorities diverted a flight headed from New York to Chicago to Detroit Metropolitan Airport Thursday night due to a disruptive passenger.
United Airlines flight 3461 landed about 8 p.m. at the airport in Romulus. The plane from LaGuardia Airport had 69 passengers and four crew members.
One of the passengers onboard, Bob Fitzsimmons, described in an email to FOX 2 what happened onboard.
He says it started when a young woman began yelling at a flight attendant and ripped off her necklace. A criminal complaint names Breanna Farquharson as the woman, and says the flight attendant got a small scratch on her lip when that happened. The criminal complaint says Farquharson also assaulted a passenger by grabbing the passenger's shirt collar and necklace, and broke the necklace.
Fitzsimmons and the criminal complaint state that he and a few other passengers then ran to Farquharson and helped hold her down, while she kept yelling and rambling on about various things.
Fitzsimmons says they eventually were able to restrain the woman with some belts, scarves and seat belt extenders, as he says the flight crew had no devices or flight marshal onboard to restrain her.
Fitzsimmons says her voice sounded "demonic" and that he believes she was having some sort of psychotic episode.
He says after about 50 minutes, the pilot announced the flight was diverting to Detroit. He says the police came and placed the woman in handcuffs.
The flight then continued to O'Hare International Airport, arriving about an hour late.
Farquharson has been charged with assaulting and intimidating a flight crew member.

Now You Can Fly In The Habitat Of Demons In Style: Flying Superyacht Skyacht One + Possession Is Still The Same Nasty Price...
Voices will be heard in the air. Men will beat their heads against walls, call for their death, and on another side death will be their torment. Blood will flow on all sides. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)
The darksome atmosphere is as a prison to the demons until the judgment day. They carry fire of hell with them wherever they go. The devils besought the Lord not to cast them into the abyss; for they asked for this, deeming it to be a punishment for them to be cast out of a place where they could injure men. Hence it is stated,They besought Him that He would not expel them out of the country. St Thomas Aquinas
“In the year 1864, Lucifer together with a large number of demons will be unloosed from hell Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)
The demons of the air together with the Antichrist will perform great wonders on earth and in the atmosphere, and men will become more and more perverted. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)
For the time has come when the most astonishing wonders will take place on the earth and in the air. Our Lady of La Salette 19 Sept. 1846 (Published by Mélanie 1879)
"Our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against Principalities and Powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places." Ephesians 6:12
Now for St Thomas on the Demons of the Darksome Atmosphere:
Summa Th. I EN Qu.64 a.4
Article: 4 Whether our atmosphere is the demons' place of punishment?
Objection:
1. It would seem that this atmosphere is not the demons' place of punishment. For a demon is a spiritual nature. But a spiritual nature is not affected by place. Therefore there is no place of punishment for demons.
2. Further, man's sin is not graver than the demons'. But man's place of punishment is hell. Much more, therefore, is it the demons' place of punishment; and consequently not the darksome atmosphere.
3. Further, the demons are punished with the pain of fire. But there is no fire in the darksome atmosphere. Therefore the darksome atmosphere is not the place of punishment for the demons.
On the contrary Augustine says (Gn ad lit. iii, 10), that "the darksome atmosphere is as a prison to the demons until the judgment day."
I answer that The angels in their own nature stand midway between God and men. Now the order of Divine providence so disposes, that it procures the welfare of the inferior orders through the superior. But man's welfare is disposed by Divine providence in two ways: first of all, directly, when a man is brought unto good and withheld from evil; and this is fittingly done through the good angels. In another way, indirectly, as when anyone assailed is exercised by fighting against opposition. It was fitting for this procuring of man's welfare to be brought about through the wicked spirits, lest they should cease to be of service in the natural order. Consequently a twofold place of punishment is due to the demons: one, by reason of their sin, and this is hell; and another, in order that they may tempt men, and thus the darksome atmosphere is their due place of punishment.
Now the procuring of men's salvation is prolonged even to the judgment day: consequently, the ministry of the angels and wrestling with demons endure until then. Hence until then the good angels are sent to us here; and the demons are in this dark atmosphere for our trial: although some of them are even now in hell, to torment those whom they have led astray; just as some of the good angels are with the holy souls in heaven. But after the judgment day all the wicked, both men and angels, will be in hell, and the good in heaven.
Reply to Objection:
1. A place is not penal to angel or soul as if affecting the nature by changing it, but as affecting the will by saddening it: because the angel or the soul apprehends that it is in a place not agreeable to its will.
2. One soul is not set over another in the order of nature, as the demons are over men in the order of nature; consequently there is no parallel.
3. Some have maintained that the pain of sense for demons and souls is postponed until the judgment day: and that the beatitude of the saints is likewise postponed until the judgment day. But this is erroneous, and contrary to the teaching of the Apostle (2Co 5,1): "If our earthly house of this habitation be dissolved, we have a house in heaven." Others, again, while not admitting the same of souls, admit it as to demons. But it is better to say that the same judgment is passed upon wicked souls and wicked angels, even as on good souls and good angels.
Consequently, it must be said that, although a heavenly place belongs to the glory of the angels, yet their glory is not lessened by their coming to us, for they consider that place to be their own; in the same way as we say that the bishop's honor is not lessened while he is not actually sitting on his throne. In like manner it must be said, that although the demons are not actually bound within the fire of hell while they are in this dark atmosphere, nevertheless their punishment is none the less; because they know that such confinement is their due. Hence it is said in a gloss upon Jc 3,6: "They carry fire of hell with them wherever they go." Nor is this contrary to what is said (Lc 8,31), "They besought the Lord not to cast them into the abyss"; for they asked for this, deeming it to be a punishment for them to be cast out of a place where they could injure men. Hence it is stated, "They [Vulg. 'He'] besought Him that He would not expel them [Vulg. 'him'] out of the country" (Mc 5,10).

Terror on United flight as passenger grabs stewardess by the throat and rips off her necklace in argument over spilled drink before she's tackled, hogtied and carried off
An unhinged passenger attacked a stewardess on a United Airlines flight from New York to Chicago Thursday night, forcing the pilot to make an emergency landing in Detroit so the woman could be arrested. According to passenger Matthew Goldgraben, the woman involved in the incident came and asked to sit down next to him and he said OK. A few minutes later, flight attendants came around for beverage service and one of the stewardesses accidentally spilled a drink. It's unclear if the flight attendant split it on the woman, or just near her. That's when Goldgraben says the woman snapped and started screaming and attacking the flight attendant.
