You're in dire need of some non-revisionist history lessons.

That's a lie! Emperor Karl tried to prevent the use of poison gas but was unable to do so. Beatifying the saintly emperor was in my opinion the best act of Pope John Paul II's pontificate.

I don't know anything about that, but I did read somewhere that Martin Luther's name was once bandied about in the Vatican for sainthood. Speaking of which, it seems they are working towards doing away with miracles entirely and declaring us all saints, like the Protestants do.
