POPE TWEETS AGAINST SYRIA STRIKE
WDN ^

Posted on 09/07/2013 3:23:02 AM PDT by kronos77

Pontiff writes Putin, plans Saturday vigil Published: 10 hours ago (Time) Pope Francis has written a letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin, host of the G-20 summit that President Obama is attending, urging world leaders to oppose a military intervention in Syria.

“To the leaders present, to each and every one, I make a heartfelt appeal for them to help find ways to overcome the conflicting positions and to lay aside the futile pursuit of a military solution,” the Pope urged. “Rather, let there be a renewed commitment to seek, with courage and determination, a peaceful solution through dialogue and negotiation of the parties, unanimously supported by the international community.”

Sending a tweet to Putin makes sense. Sending one to BO wouldn’t. Why would a Muslim care what a Pope thinks?

Is it just me or is a Tweet as UNserious as you can get?

Why do Freepers scream for someone anyone to call BO and his people out and then put them down when they do?

Go ahead Freepers, put down the Pope. That’s a good idea.

Pay attention, though, tonight

This pope actually wants to protect and save his people and understands just how horrendous things will get for his people in Syria if our leaders go through with this.

Who put the Pope down?

Simple statement:
Sending a tweet to Putin makes sense. (He may listen)
Sending one to BO wouldn’t. He’s not a Catholic , he’s an azz and I believe Muslim so:

Why would a Muslim care what a Pope thinks? They don’t and Obama has already shown his disdain for any religious faith except the Muslim faith.

He doesn’t care. Why do Freepers scream for leaders to do something and when they do Freepers say the actions are unwise?
