This is too rich for words.
The Israelis offer aid to Sri Lanka, the Sri Lankans refuse it, and now the Vatican castigates the Israelis for refusing to send aid!
No good deed goes unpunished!

Is this the same Vatican that denied the existence of the Holocaust?

Thanks, I was just going to go looking for that article.
Gives the Vatican a band name. Ooops already had one.

When did the Vatican become antisemitic? 400 A.D. or so. I guess you could say they have made progress.

The Catholic Church should sit down and shut up. What have they done to aid the Sri Lankans?

actually, Sri Lanka objected to a certain military component of the Israeli contingent (since the IDF is mobilized and ready to go it forms an important part of the team) and the Israelis readjusted the makeup of the team and as i understand, it is going in. the Vatican must be reading the MSM like the Nyt WaPo etc and getting their bad info from them -- or perhaps it is showing the ugly underside of some of its membership. i really don't think the Pope would speak like this.

Seems like the Vatican manages to be on the wrong side of every issue these days. So much for infalibility...

The Isrealis were denied entrance to help. What is this author smoking?
To: avital2
You can bet on one thing > If this had happened to Israel not one Sri Lanken would be giving any aid.

400 A.D. or so. I guess you could say they have made progress. Earlier than that.

Americans simply cannot understand how deep rooted anti-semitism is in Europe.

Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Bible pretty clear in its direction to support Israel?

I'm sure you know that the concept of papal infallibility doesn't apply to L'Osservatore Romano. :)

I honestly can't see how the Vatican could have put that spin on it - Sri Lanka was pretty public about refusing Israeli aid.
One thing you have to remember, however, is that many people at the Vatican are raving leftists. They got into "Liberation Theology" in the 60s and eventually got kicked upstairs to the Vatican, where they now view everything through their hard-left lens (which of course also means condemning Israel at every turn, truth be damned).

The 1986 Red Sox couldn't have screwed up the Altar Boy scandal as badly the Vatican. Who the *heck* do they think they are to be "casting stones". I think the Vatican gets a bad rap for anti-Semetism during the war, but they're working hard to earn it now.
