Pope Francis has repeatedly rejected any association of Islam and violence, notably remarking: "I don't like to talk about Islamic violence because every day when I look at the papers, I see violence here in Italy — someone killing his girlfriend, someone killing his mother-in-law."
"These are baptized Catholics. If I speak of Islamic violence, I have to speak of Catholic violence," Francis said.
When it comes to Afghanistan there why there has been a refusal to cite any religious purposes claimed by their actions When the 911 action was done by the Taliban That reasoning Perhaps began when President Bush was urged to be refrained from using the term crusade to fight them . Which was followed up not only by the media and the so called (in name only) democratic party but later by by Christian leaders like Pope Francis refusing to approach exposing the Taliban for it being a theocracy following the sharia creed which denies free will and ridicule their claim they are authorized by Our Creator to execute non believers. but instead brags about working with them.
If that exposure was explored and the emphasis was placed on Our Savior’s activities bringing in the New Covenant there would be more conversions.
