The Pope is trying to prevent a Christian vs. Muslim crusade. That's why he's saying what he's saying.
Calling the war a "crime against humanity" was a bit over the top, though.
George W. Bush is doing the right thing here, and I suspect the Pope won't lose any sleep over this war.
I miss sitetest's posts, but getting in a snit over the banning of someone who went off on the President the way Catholic Guy did is misplaced.
The Christians seem to be the only ones that are not aware a Crusade is happening.
