True.
Peace WILL come to the middle east about two seconds before God ends all creation. THERE, peace in the middle east...oops, no more existence.

From Matthew, Chapter 10

[34] Do not think that I came to send peace upon earth: I came not to send peace, but the sword. [35] For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

Comment from the Douay Rheims Bible

>>[35] I came to set a man at variance: Not that this was the end or design of the coming of our Saviour; but that his coming and his doctrine would have this effect, by reason of the obstinate resistance that many would make, and of their persecuting all such as should adhere to him.<<

Pope Francis is chasing a pipe dream

The God of Christians is Jesus Christ. Not so for Muslims. So yes its a pipe dream. Their stated goal since its founding is to drive Christians from the face of the earth. B16 said Islam is not a religion of peace. Too bad Francis does not have the wisdom of Pope Benedict.

“Their stated goal since its founding is to drive Christians from the face of the earth.”

.....Or just from the Middle East.

Francis: “More than once we have been on the verge of peace, but the Evil One, employing a variety of means, has succeeded in blocking it,” the Pope said at an evening ceremony in the Vatican Gardens. “That is why we are here, because we know and we believe that we need the help of God.”

Peres: Right. Only I can make piece. OK. You convinced me. I’ll do it this time.

Abbas: Yes! With the help of Allah, the Jooos! will have an even crazier President now, one with a real death wish, one who is totally delusional, not just almost totally delusional, and then we will slaughter them all! Note to self: Must practice my mass slaughter of Joooz! ululate trilling.

It was in response to your Post 11. If you can’t make the connection, I can’t help you.

New York City ain’t in the Middle East.
