The Pope–and virtually ALL Western leaders are Wrong about the War
Terror Trends Bulletin ^ | 28 July 16 | Christopher W. Holton

Posted on 07/28/2016 5:46:26 AM PDT by LSUfan

In the wake of the horrific Jihadist attack on a Catholic church in Normandy, France, Pope Francis’ latest statements that the world war we are in is not a religious war shows a lack of knowledge of Islamic doctrine. The Pope is not alone in this view. Every major Western political leader from George W. Bush through to Barack Obama has maintained the same belief.

When the Islamic State caliphate was declared in 2014, their media arm issued a slick, 10-page document announcing the establishment of the caliphate. In those 10 pages, they cited Islamic scripture 26 times–scripture from the Quran and scripture from the Sunna of Mohammed. The entire document was dominated by Islamic scripture and associated commentary.

Can we please revoke their "Religion Of Peace" card now?
It should have been done a millennium ago.

They are not ‘wrong’ about the Moslem attacks. They are complicit in those attacks.

Tens of millions of Americans want to believe the best about the “religion of peace”, as liberals call it. Then there are “stubborn facts” that get in the way of their claim.

The idiot politicians and the pope (he's a politician too - don't kid yourself) naively think that if we just leave the muzzies alone and don't antagonize them, they will live in harmony with us - FOOLS!

People can’t handle the reality that Islam is at war with the rest of the world.

It may mean that people will have to make great sacrifices to survive and defeat it.

Then there are the self-haters that would willingly march to the gallows instead of fighting.

The West has become too fat and happy waiting for someone else to do it for them.

Politicians themselves are complicit in it because they will do anything to downplay the problem as it interferes with their NWO wet dreams.

Still Catholic, done with this Marxist POS. He’s just a man, I’ll answer to God.

From the article....

“So whether the Pope thinks that the Jihadists are waging a religious war or not is irrelevant. The Islamic State Jihadists believe they are waging a religious war. And they justify it with Islamic doctrine.”

“...a lack of knowledge of Islamic doctrine. The Pope is not alone in this view....”

This pope knows full-well what’s going on.

There’s a reason he’s called “Frankie The Red”.

Virtually all Western leaders have been complicit in assisting the spread of jihad.

They love it. With every attack they claim more and more power.

Now imagine these societies - Germany, US - as more and more people realize not only have they been failed by both their government AND religious leaders, but that those leaders are beyond complicit, they’ve been orchestrating it.

The words of Jesus are much better than anything that comes out of Pope Francis mouth.

Same ol'....

 


"...who, being themselves but fallible and uninspired men, have assumed dominion over the faith of others, setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible, and as such endeavoring to impose them on others, hath established and maintained false religions over the greatest part of the world, and through all time;
 
...
 
 that it is time enough for the rightful purposes of civil government, for its officers to interfere when principles break out into overt acts against peace and good order; and finally, that truth is great and will prevail if left to herself, that she is the proper and sufficient antagonist to error, and has nothing to fear from the conflict, unless by human interposition disarmed of her natural weapons, free argument and debate, errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is permitted freely to contradict them. "

Yes. But the ‘leaders’ know better, including the pope.
A lot of them are owned by oil money. Others are trying to Moslems to make massive (and unpleasant) changes to the West.
The masses are just ignorant.
There are good people who are Moslem, but they are probably truly lousy Moslems...
