1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,460 2 00:00:00,460 --> 00:00:06,031 In public, Freemasonry presents itself as charitable, non-profit, and tolerant. 3 00:00:06,031 --> 00:00:12,040 Its five principles are: liberty, equality, fraternity, tolerance, and humanity. 4 00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:18,049 According to Wikipedia, the goal of Freemasonry is to live by these principles in everyday life 5 00:00:18,049 --> 00:00:21,700 in order to promote human goodness in the world. 6 00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:26,693 We do not dispute that this may well be the case at the very bottom of the ranks. 7 00:00:26,693 --> 00:00:36,300 Recent events show, however, that there is certainly another, criminal, and dark side to Freemasonry. 8 00:00:36,300 --> 00:00:42,656 For example, in London, criminal activities by Freemasons were uncovered by the Metropolitan Police. 9 00:00:42,656 --> 00:00:51,020 The Metropolitan Police is the police force responsible for law enforcement and crime prevention in the Greater London area. 10 00:00:51,020 --> 00:01:00,042 In December 2025, she announced that she wanted to put a stop to the conflicts of interest and cronyism within her police force. 11 00:01:00,042 --> 00:01:05,699 Membership in Freemasonry or similar organizations should be included in its “Guidelines on 12 00:01:05,699 --> 00:01:09,020 Organizations Subject to Reporting Requirements.” 13 00:01:09,020 --> 00:01:16,209 This means that London police officers in this special unit will in the future be required to report to their 14 00:01:16,209 --> 00:01:25,270 superiors any past or current membership in a structured organization that involves internal loyalty obligations. 15 00:01:25,270 --> 00:01:31,329 According to British police, this decision was made in light of recent corruption allegations and past 16 00:01:31,329 --> 00:01:35,091 incidents that have damaged the police's credibility. 17 00:01:35,091 --> 00:01:42,366 The authorities point in particular to the findings of the investigation into the unsolved murder of private investigator 18 00:01:42,366 --> 00:01:49,540 Daniel Morgan, which revealed serious misconduct on the part of the officers involved. Several of them were Freemasons. 19 00:01:49,540 --> 00:01:56,407 Two active police officers who are Freemasons, as well as three Freemason organizations, had taken 20 00:01:56,407 --> 00:02:00,440 legal action against this reporting requirement. 21 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:06,680 However, the High Court judge ruled in favor of the police, stating that in the future, all of its 22 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:11,307 employees must disclose their membership in Masonic lodges. 23 00:02:11,307 --> 00:02:19,106 His reasoning: The Metropolitan Police is pursuing a legitimate goal, namely to maintain and 24 00:02:19,106 --> 00:02:23,677 strengthen public confidence in law enforcement. 25 00:02:23,677 --> 00:02:32,198 He justifies this by saying that it is intended to eliminate the risk of actual or perceived bias. 26 00:02:32,198 --> 00:02:38,918 The judge thus prioritizes the public interest in the impartial fight against crime over the 27 00:02:38,918 --> 00:02:44,400 interests of secrecy and mutual loyalty within Freemasonry. 28 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:52,700 Another example shows that this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to criminal activities within Freemasonry: 29 00:02:52,700 --> 00:03:02,800 In March 2026, a sensational trial began in Paris against 22 members of the Athanor Masonic Lodge. 30 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:09,632 They are accused of numerous crimes, including contract killings. 31 00:03:09,632 --> 00:03:19,616 Thirteen of the defendants face life sentences, including former soldiers, police officers, and intelligence agents. 32 00:03:19,616 --> 00:03:27,411 They are charged with murder and attempted murder, aggravated assault, and criminal conspiracy. 33 00:03:27,411 --> 00:03:36,632 The list of allegations is long: . According to investigators, members of this Masonic lodge murdered Laurent Pasquali, a 34 00:03:36,632 --> 00:03:41,792 43-year-old French race car driver who was in debt, in 2018. 35 00:03:41,792 --> 00:03:47,727 In 2020, an assassination attempt by the Athanor Freemasons against a woman who was a 36 00:03:47,727 --> 00:03:50,450 business rival of the lodge master failed. 37 00:03:50,450 --> 00:03:57,065 According to investigators, he instructed a “brother” from his lodge to get rid of them. 38 00:03:57,065 --> 00:04:01,570 He is said to have offered 70,000 euros in return. 39 00:04:01,570 --> 00:04:08,022 Conclusion: Kla.TV has already revealed in numerous broadcasts that these two examples are not just passing 40 00:04:08,022 --> 00:04:11,904 fads, but rather that there is an urgent need for action. 41 00:04:11,904 --> 00:04:14,570 Back to the example of the London Police: 42 00:04:14,570 --> 00:04:20,640 Wouldn't it be a prime example—and at the same time a good start—if all employees of public agencies were 43 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,935 required to disclose their membership in Masonic lodges?
