イスラム世界と"交渉"で和平をもたらしたことをローマ法王に咎められ、破門3回、更には皇帝の位の剥奪という処分まで受けたフリードリヒ2世のその部下が、ローマ法王に直接ぶつけた言葉を、安保理会議の場でも大声でぶつけたい
『Dies ista dies irae, calamitatis et miseriae!
(今日この日は神が怒り災いをもたらし、それによって人間が苦しむ時代が始まる)』
In the United Nations Security Council, despite Russia and China voting in favor, the United States has vetoed Israel criticism and ceasefire resolutions 49 times up to 2024 (and it has never voted in favor).
Friedrich II was condemned by the Pope—excommunicated three times and even stripped of his imperial title—for bringing peace through "negotiations" with the Islamic world. His subordinate, however, directly confronted the Pope with these words, and these words shold be loudly voiced at the Security Council meetings:
"Dies ista dies irae, calamitatis et miseriae!
(This day is the day of wrath, calamity, and misery brought by God, marking the beginning of an era in which humanity suffers.)"
After he passed away,
"'STVPOR MVNDI' (Wonder of the World) became synonymous with Friedrich thereafter. Just by saying 'Stupor Mundi,' any cultured European knows exactly who it refers to."
No matter how extraordinary one person may be, that person alone cannot change the great currents of the age—at best, it becomes a fleeting dream.
But even such fleeting dreams, if they shine brightly enough, can be passed down like this over a thousand years and may finally become the power to turn dreams into reality.
