As is well known, big-hearted Pope Francis doesn’t take sides in the Israel-Palestinian conflict. As far as he is concerned, both sides are equally guilty of unleashing violence against the other; both deserve to be chastised and their respective acts of violence equally deplored.

And only then did he see fit to mention the seven Israeli Jews who were killed in Jerusalem, when he “also lamented” their deaths.
