On Good Friday, Francis chastised the international community for what he called the complicit silence about the killing of Christians. On Easter he prayed that God would alleviate `’the suffering of so many of our brothers persecuted because of his name.”
I wish he had expressed himself the way you summarized what he said.
He specifically called out arms dealers, not the leaders who ordered the slaughter of innocents. I'm sure there are many bad arms dealers, but this sounds like a giant gun control program to me. He also specifically called out Obama’s terrible Iranian framework, giving his tacit approval in so doing. I hope Congress gets rid of the entire deal. Will the Pope say Congress is not supporting the peace process if they do?
