Thanks, nicmarlo. I knew The Pope spoke out against it previously, but wanted to know if it was his HIS LAST STATEMENT to the WORLD and indeed it was. Thanks.

"The prolonged interruption in her feeding ... is shaping up as an UNJUST DEATH SENTENCE TO AN INNOCENT, in one of the MOST INHUMANE AND CRUEL form of death — that of death from hunger and thirst," Renato Martino, who heads the Vatican's Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, told Vatican Radio earlier in the day, before her death was announced.

The death cult was too much in a party mode to listen or care.
