ROME — Pope Francis once again failed to mention the genocide of Uighur Muslims in China Saturday in his annual virtual tour of injustices around the world.
In his Christmas Urbi et Orbi (to the city and the world) message the pope gave a shout out to the people of Syria, “who for more than a decade have experienced a war that has resulted in many victims and an untold number of displaced persons.”
He drew attention to Iraq, “which still struggles to recover from a lengthy conflict,” and urged his hearers to “listen to the cry of children arising from Yemen, where an enormous tragedy, overlooked by everyone, has silently gone on for years, causing deaths every day.”
As he does every year, the pontiff also recalled “the continuing tensions between Israelis and Palestinians that drag on without a resolution, with ever more serious social and political consequences.”
Francis turned people’s gaze to “Bethlehem, the place of Jesus’ birth, which is experiencing hardship also from the economic repercussions of the pandemic, preventing pilgrims from visiting the Holy Land and adversely affecting the life of the people.”
He also spoke of Lebanon, “which is undergoing an unprecedented crisis, accompanied by very troubling economic and social conditions.”

where are all the muslimes protesting at the chin embassy’s?
Phuk the pope!
It doesn’t fit in with his NWO plans . . . perhaps as the false prophet of the book of Revelation.
Sooo,Muslims don’t mind muslims being destroyed..Good to know for future reference.....
And so it will be to American Christians if it comes to that.
I’m missing something here. Atheist communists are oppressing Muslims. So what part here does the Catholic church play?
Plus, there are a lot of Christians in China, but none in the Uighur area.
Arab Muslims don’t care much about non-Arab Muslims.
As long as ‘Palestinians’ were just part of the Arab Muslim ummah, Arabs were all in on supporting them. As Palestinians actually began to identify separately since the ‘60s, Arab support has been lost. Just like Arab Muslims don’t care about Kurdish or Uyghur ‘self-determination’.
100%
If he speaks up the Chinese won’t contribute to his ‘foundation’ 🤪
I, for one, wish this (pseudo) Pope was - actually - Catholic.
