Why do wars rage after the Fatima consecration?

SIR – Donal Foley’s Fatima thesis is dissonant (Feature, October 7). According to Mr Foley, the consecration has been done in 1984. Please observe the words of Mary on the consecration: “To prevent this , I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to My Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of Reparation on the First Saturdays. If My requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church.”
