In its statement, the Holy See press office revealed the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, met with the Ambassadors of the United States of America and of the State of Israel on Tuesday. […]

Yeah - they’ll fire more rockets into civilian areas in Israel; better to not annex and have fewer missile launched.

The Vatican, or at least Pope Francis, is already compromised by their “understanding” with the command-and-control forces of this world. But Jesuits are the poster children for command-and-control anyway, so these are kindred souls they are supporting.

Only if Breitbart is known for satire, or Crux for that matter (the author writes for both).

Not calling on Palestinians to renounce their goal of destroying Israel, is what’s actually jeopardizing peace.

Hmm, what about when the Catholic church annexed land in “Palestine” during the Crusades? Was that wrong too?

Yo, Il Papa! Wait till the Rabbis lay the corner stone for the third Temple. The fireworks will be awesome.

Not surprising, the Catholic church supported ratlines after WWII.

There is no peace. There isn't going to be any peace. Israel may as well annex what they want. Nothing is going to change.

This pope believes that all religions are equal and that all gods are the same and equally valid (yeah, he’s a total heretic). But not judaism, that he seems to really dislike. Or maybe it’s just jews themselves. Either way, he’s a bigot.

Why doesn’t Frankie Boy leave the Papacy and run for office? He certainly is useless as a pope.
