“We cannot in any way accept the bombing of civilians.”

“We cannot accept that children are freezing to death because hospitals have been destroyed or a country’s energy network has been hit.”

Pope Francis

Vatican currently ‘spreads modern blood libels,’ Chikli says in Knesset – Israel News https://www.byteseu.com/?p=590164 #antisemitism #diaspora #Israel #jews #pope #Vatican

For the second time in as many days, #Pope Francis has denounced the cruelty of the Israeli attacks on Gaza.

“And with pain I think of Gaza, of so much cruelty, of the children being machine-gunned, of the bombings of schools and hospitals. What cruelty,” he said after his weekly Angelus prayer.

On Saturday, the pope had referenced the bombardment of children and said: “This is cruelty. This is not war. I wanted to say this because it touches the heart.”

TINES OF ISRAEL: Pope Francis inaugurates nativity scene in Vatican showing baby Jesus on keffiyeh

Pope Francis on Saturday attended the inauguration of a seasonal nativity scene, presented by Palestinian officials, that featured a baby Jesus lying on a keffiyeh, the traditional scarf used by Palestinians as a national symbol.

The unveiling of the provocative nativity scene comes after a series of statements by the pope about the ongoing war between Israel and various Iranian proxies, which have angered some Jews and Israelis.

#FolkloreMoment : Once, a woman said that she would like to marry - but she did not want to bear any children, as she was terribly afraid of the pains of birth.

The couple went to their local priest, who said that he was unable to help them. So he sent them to the pope.

The pope said that he could help her, if she followed his instructions exactly. Then the pope told her that he could help her - if she agreed to follow his instructions exactly.

The woman agreed, and then the pope arranged for her to spend the night in a room with a snake.

The next morning, the woman was dead - but her wish was fulfilled, for now she would never give birth.
