Did italy arrest cardinals and seize vatican city?

Claim: Italian law enforcement has arrested cardinals and seized Vatican City. On 17 January 2019, the blog _Laughing in Disbelief_ published an entry headlined "Italy Arrests Cardinals

and Seizes Vatican City": > Italian law enforcement worked for months to launch a sting program > on the pedophile clergy that made up Vatican City. The operation was > 

codenamed Spotlight after the 2015 movie about clergy sex abuse > scandal in Boston, Massachusetts. >  > Inspector Anthony Canard is the commanding officer of _Spotlight_. > 

“Everyone knew Vatican City was the center of an international > pedophile ring,” he stated. “We sent busloads of orphans into > Vatican City for the annual Cardinal Convention. Long 

story short? > The kids were never in harm’s way, and we nabbed a lot of > perps.” Although many readers saw the article's headline circulating on social media and wondered if the

story were true, observant audience members may have noticed the definition of the surname of the putative law enforcement inspector, Canard, is "a false or unfounded report or

story." Although the Patheos platform that is home to "Laughing in Disbelief" offers serious perspectives on religion and spirituality, material posted on the "Laughing

in Disbelief" blog is satirical in nature rather than real news. Under a tab labelled "Is this satire?", the article notes that "The story you are reading is satirical.

The post may have links to real events that the satire is based on, but the Laughing in Disbelief article is fake. There are winks to readers in each piece besides the link(s) to this page

that I humbly offer as hints that the story in question is satirical. _Maybe there is someone in the story who has a name derived from canard?"_
