Vaclav Havel (right)
Vaclav Havel was born into a wealthy family.
His grandfather, Vácslav Havel, a real estate developer, built a landmark entertainment complex on Prague’s Wenceslas Square.
His father, Václav Maria Havel, was the real estate developer behind the suburban Barrandov Terraces, located on the highest point of Prague—next door to which his uncle, Miloš Havel, built one of the largest film studios in Europe.[9]
Havel’s mother, Božena Vavrečková,[10] also came from an influential family; her father was a Czechoslovak ambassador and a well-known journalist.
‘An article put today’s covid-regime concerns in the context of the spiritual-themed warnings of the famous Czech liberation hero the late Václav Havel (1936-2011)
‘Somewhat like Solzhenitsyn, Havel warned that Western modernity had become too technocratic and soul-less, too submissive to alleged ‘science’, and that decreasing spirituality was a great danger
‘Tho about religion, Havel himself remained an eager spiritual ‘searcher’, rather than someone who was able to say clearly he had found a spiritual home. Havel had some Roman Catholic background in his youth – rare in Czechia, which today is still Europe’s most atheistic country – and Havel went to church occasionally, but did not feel able to fully call himself a believer.
Havel met with his friend the Polish Pope John Paul II at least five times, and later also met with Pope Benedict … here is Havel with John Paul II
“Respect for human rights will mean nothing as long as this imperative does not derive from the respect of the miracle of Being, the miracle of the universe, the miracle of nature, the miracle of our own existence. It seems man can realize that liberty only if he does not forget the One who endowed him with it.”

Was Havel an asset of the CIA?
Did Havel’s family have NAZI connections?
Living in truth | The Economist
‘The authorities tried to tar the dissidents as CIA stooges, and Mr Havel as the scion of a family of Nazi collaborators.’

‘Havel and his fellow dissidents are routinely portrayed in the west as one big success story, the reality is rather different.
‘Havel’s true political allegiances came to the fore during his years as president.
