...” Pope Francis said on Sunday that equating Islam with violence was wrong “...

While it is true that not all who care called Muslims advocate religious violence in fighting the West, the Qur'an and Hadith and their founder certainly provide support, while what has been missed is that,

Pope equates Muslim extremists with Christian fundamentalists:

The Argentine pope, who has been trying to foster cooperation with moderate Islam in order to work for peace and protect Christians in the Middle East, said it was wrong for anyone to react to terrorism by being "enraged" against Islam.

"You just can’t say that, just as you can’t say that all Christians are fundamentalists. We have our share of them (fundamentalists). All religions have these little groups," he said. -http://news.yahoo.com/pope-visits-iconic-religious-sites-istanbul-073647316.html

“Pope equates Muslim extremists with Christian fundamentalists:”

I noticed that too, but forgot to point it out. I should have put it in my first post. You are right, this was very upsetting. Yes, there are some people that call themselves Christian fundamentalists that are violent, but they are not real Christian fundamentalists since they are not following Jesus’ commands. You wonder about a Pope who equates a Christian fundamentalist with a Muslim extremist. Who does he really represent?
