Pope Francis made an emotional plea for peace on Sunday in an impromptu addition to comments delivered at his weekly Angelus address in Saint Peter's Square.
As the Argentinian-born pontiff wrapped up his regular address to the faithful, he spoke of the upcoming centenary of the outbreak of World War One and said his thoughts were on the Middle East, Iraq and Ukraine in particular.
With his voice appearing to crack with emotion, the pope broke off from his scripted remarks to make a direct appeal for fighting to end.
"Please stop!, I ask you with all my heart, it's time to stop. Stop, please!"

Hey Popie...how bout you send a message to Isis who is killing Christians in Iraq (and get specific). Why don't you go to war to protect our own flock from being destroyed.
Boo fricken hoo for you and your teary eyes.

Like the naive young lady across the street with the “Give Peace a Chance” bumper sticker. Yeah, that’ll work if you don’t mind that one side gets exterminated.
Why is this guy pope? It certainly isn’t the Holy Spirit’s work. Or I am wrong about everything.

So far, he seems like nothing more than a weak-minded, soft headed South American commie tool.

This pope is ignoring the killing of Christians. He is doing nothing.

He’s an idiot. Not surprised that as a Commie he would be admonishing Israel to “please stop.”

Boo fricken hoo for you and your teary eyes. Egalitarian that he is, he realizes that no religion is superior to any other religion.

Is defending an innocent from a killer wrong. That is a form of war.
Would you step aside while your children are abducted by a molester because it would be wrong to fight back.
War is most certainly not wrong if it is justified.
Please tell us all that you misspoke.

Did Obama actually declare August Islamic Appreciation Month, or is that a joke?
