I just heard on a website that they are using holograms to depict the pope rather than “live” photos/videos. Not saying it is true.

“Benedict, who is seated and looks very frail”

In before someone types “Bring Back Pope Benedict.” That’s just what I want - to be forcibly dragged out of retirement on somebody’s whim when I’m 93.

Where was the Pope arrested?

If the Pope is on the Vatican grounds, only his own security force can arrest him. No foreign entity can arrest a Pope at the Vatican, they have no jurisdiction there.
