The Vatican has a long memory when it comes to blocking American-led peace initiatives — and a short one when it comes to recognizing Jewish rights in the Land of Israel. When Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, announced Tuesday that Pope Leo would not be joining U.S. President Donald Trump’s newly formed Board of Peace, he framed the decision in procedural language about the United Nations. But for anyone who has watched the Holy See’s decades-long pattern of hostility toward Israeli sovereignty, the refusal carries a familiar echo.
Parolin made the announcement on the sidelines of a bilateral meeting with the Italian government in Rome, at the Palazzo Borromeo — the seat of the Italian Embassy to the Holy See — on the anniversary of the signing of the Lateran Pacts. “The Holy See will not participate in the Board of Peace because of its particular nature, which is evidently not that of other States,” Parolin told journalists. He elaborated that the Vatican’s core objection was jurisdictional: “One concern is that at the international level it should above all be the UN that manages these crisis situations. This is one of the points on which we have insisted.”
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt called the decision “deeply unfortunate.”
The Board of Peace, chaired by Trump, was initially conceived to oversee Gaza’s demilitarization and reconstruction following the Hamas terrorist organization’s October 7 massacre. Its mandate has since expanded. Trump has said its work will “go far beyond Gaza.”

Reading is HARD for "christians"....
All they had to do was to say nothing.
More like The Wholly Blind.
Indulgences, wealth hoarding, and faggot sex/pedophilia are the most important to the Vatican.
Comments BUMP!
What a gosh darn shame that the first US born pope is yet another FAILURE.
The BOP is brilliant. Trump just owned the UN which is about to go bankrupt and sold off at auction for pennies for its worthless rotting carcass.
I would say a few good history lessons might give him a clue...How could he be not be knowledgeable about the history of the Vatican after WWII in Germany and the exodus provided by the Vatican for Nazi war criminals out of the country not to mention the lackluster work of the UN since its inception??
When Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, heard of it, it grieved them exceedingly that there was come a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel.

Bishops stuck in 20th century.
Esav (Esau) is Rome and Rome is Esav. His descendants started Rome and has always been against Israel (Jacob) and their descendants.
Right, seeing the Arabs as equal to the Jews in anti-Israel.
My mother always told us kids that we didn’t have to go to church to speak to God, nor did we have to go through a middleman (priest) to confess our sins to God. I’ve been snubbing the Vatican since Pope Mario, and will continue to snub them with this idiot Leo.
Austrian Bishop Alois Hudal helped establish the rat lines that the likes of Adolf Eichmann used to board a ship in Italy, and escape Europe to Argentina...all with the help of the Red Cross.
Pope needs to watch this vid and get a clue

TRUMP NAMED THEM: The Real “Foreign Interests”

Trump’s response to the Supreme Court tariff ruling points beyond China to “foreign interests” tied to the British Empire’s Adam Smith free-trade ideology, defended by the US Chamber of Commerce and Cato Institute. She cites Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Ambassador Jamieson Greer framing the administration’s approach as Hamiltonian economic sovereignty, and says tariffs will continue under other laws, including a new 10% global tariff. She contrasts this with Thursday’s Board of Peace meeting, where 60 nations backed “peace through construction,” funding housing, security, and development, rejecting Kissinger-style managed conflict. She warns midterm demoralization risks ending Trump’s agenda.

Yeah. God forbid that a Pope would be interested in peace. 🙄
Leo, you should stay out of international affairs and attend to the Vatican money laundering.
Do you see the Canaanites as "equal" to the ancient Israelites in Ancient Israel?
Why would we want that queer on the peace council anyway?
Solomon was anti-Israel in the end and he built the First Temple that God didn’t even want. Riddle me that. You have been brainwashed by Scolfield’s crap.
