"May world leaders be confirmed and sustained In their efforts to resolve satisfactorily the continuing conflicts that cause bloodshed in certain regions of Africa, Iraq and the Holy Land."

Should we assume The Holy See is satisfied with the Kosovo development?

If not, why it is not mentioned?

The silence from the pope on Kosovo overwhelms me, in comparison to his running mouth a few years ago about how much he desires unity with us.

Hypocrisy was always this pope's strongest character. It was a few years ago and it still is. If that is hate then there are a lot of Catholics who hate him far more than I do. Read what they have to say about him on the religion forum sometime.

You, firstborn of many brothers, grant that all who consider themselves children of Abraham may rediscover the brotherhood that they share and that prompts in them designs of cooperation and peace.

Did you actually read Pope John Paul's message? I did and can you tell me that the above excerpt from it that you kindly provided states that he John Paul wishes ill will to wards the Serbs in Kosovo? I think not. These are John Paul's words and nowhere did I see any Orthodox bashing on his part. If you care to look outside of Kosovo you will see and understand that their is more than enough pain and suffering being endured by a lot of people in the world not only in the Balkans. You missed John Paul's message entirely and only saw what your bias tells you to see.

" all who consider themselves children of Abraham" that includes both of you does it not?
