Absolutely, MikeAA.  

'The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away'!  It was the Vatican who FIRST permitted the Knights of Malta to be established.  The Vatican can revoke their charter to exist in connection with the church.  If the Knights of Malta want to exist as a secular group----running a casino, teaching boating safety, etc.---fine.  But they should not have any chancellor nor a 'spiritual patron' assigned from the Vatican.  I am sure that Chancellor Boeselager's services can be easily utilized in another capacity.  And if the charges against him were totally untrue---Boeselager should, not only pursue but be encouraged to pursue legal action against the Knights because he didn't commit any SIN [crime} and his name was tarnished.   Cardinal Burke, I'm sure, was called into the Vatican to hear his account of this whole action---since he was present.
