Secrets That Shocked the World After Their Publishing

The publication of such secrets, in addition to causing great publicity in the general public, makes us wonder how many things happen without anyone realizing it.

Temple and Vatican Horsemen

In October 2007, the Vatican had published secret documents concerning the trial of the Temple Knights, including the parchment showing that Pope Clement the Fifth had vindicated the medieval command of heresy's vindication.

However, the Vatican had changed its documents after 1307, when King Philip the Fourth of France had arrested and tortured Temple leaders on charges of heresy and immorality.

According to the Vatican archive's website, the parchment shows that he had initially pardoned them for heresy, although he had punished them for an immorality, but after the king's pressure he changed his decision.

Churchill and Hitler execution plans

Sir Winston Churchill, prime minister of Great Britain in wartime, had planned Adolf Hitler's execution in electric chairs, in case the latter would fall alive in Allied hands.

The published documents show that Churchill had opposed Allied plans and demanded the immediate execution of major Nazi figures, including Hitler, whom he considered the inciting of evil and égangster, and had enjoyed seeing Indian leader for independence, Mahatma Gandhi, suffer from hunger during the 1943 strike.

Massacre in Vietnam

The May-Laj massacre had marked the killing of 504 unarmed citizens of the Republic of Vietnam. Most of them had been civilians, with most of them women and children. The massacre was carried out by the US Army on 16 March 1968. Some of the victims were raped and tortured before being killed.

Six months later, Tom Glen, a 21-year-old U.S. Army soldier, had written to General Creighton Abrams as well as the commander-in-chief of American forces in Vietnam, accusing the American division of brutality against Vietnamese civilians. The letter was detailed and had been in line with the complaints of other soldiers.

Operation "Northwoods"

According to documents that had long been kept secret, the Chiefs of Staff had drafted and adopted plans for what is considered to be one of the most corrupt plans ever created by the US government a false terrorist attack on citizens. Coded under the name "Northwoods" operation, this operation involved the killing of innocent people on the street so that Cuban refugees could sink into the open sea.
