Pope praises Iran nuclear deal as 'proof of political good will' in UN address
The Daily Star ^ | Sep. 25, 2015 | 05:41 PM

UNITED NATIONS: Pope Francis on Friday threw his support behind Iran's accord with major powers as he backed a goal of global abolition of nuclear weapons.

The Iran agreement "is proof of the potential of political goodwill, exercised with sincerity, patience and constancy," Francis said in an address to the United Nations.

"I express my hope that this agreement will be lasting and efficacious, and bring forth the desired fruits with the cooperation of all the parties involved," he said.

Francis made his remarks a day after a friendly welcome at the U.S. Congress, where many Republican lawmakers have vehemently criticized President Barack Obama for negotiating with Iran, an enemy of the United States and Israel since its 1979 Islamic revolution.

In his U.N. address, Francis also appealed anew for the protection of Christians and other people persecuted by extremists in Syria and Iraq.

Yeah, great f’ing deal: it enriches a terrorist and terrorist-financing nation, intent on building nukes and long-range missiles, and wiping the “Zionist Entity” and the “Great Satan” (that’s us) from the face of the Earth.

Stick to poping - from what I hear from Catholics, you need some work there. Politics is plainly not your field, so stay the Hell out of it.

Low I.Q. Marxist tool; living in the richest corporate compound with the tallest, secure walls to keep out illegal immigrants...erstwhile “preaching” to the rest of us about our “evils”...and doing it while not mentioning God?

Have I missed something or is he the prototypical Marxist despot?

Crazy to say but the Pope is not a Christian.

I thought he was all in favor of getting rid of nuclear weapons.

More and more I can’t help suspect this Pope is a political plant. A trojan horse.

I would certainly think that if I did not know where he came from and what division of the catholic church he subscribes to.

Knowing that, he just is what he is....

The fact that he was voted in as Pope is the more interesting anomaly.

This Pope is a nice guy. Unfortunately most of his intellect comes from reading liberal MSM tabloids, ie. NY Slimes and WAPO. He is a hypocrite, he talks of sharing the wealth, check out all the riches in the Vatican and the recent 178 million renovation of St. Pat’s funded by capitalist donors.
