ROME — The Vatican on Thursday rejected an audiotaped accusation from Osama bin Laden that Pope Benedict XVI was leading a “new Crusade” against Muslims, but Italian security officials were concerned about the threats included in Mr. bin Laden’s new message.

“These accusations are absolutely unfounded,” the Rev. Federico Lombardi, the pope’s chief spokesman, said in a telephone interview. “There is nothing new in this, and it doesn’t have any particular significance for us.”

Sooner or later, we're gonna have to give the Muzzies the Jihad they so desperately want.

...leading a “new Crusade” against Muslims....

Would that we were.

Bah. Europe will not give them even a fight.

They will just take over Italy and make the Vatican into a mosque like they did the Hagia Sophia. Of course there might be a few that stand up to them, but they know how to handle that.
