Pope to grant P.A. leader Abbas an audience at the Vatican

Jan 12, 2017 10:22 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Relations between the Holy See and Palestine were upgraded in 2015 with the signing of an accord expected to lead to the establishment of a Palestinian embassy in the Vatican at some point this year. Israel was angered by the accord, which came two years after the Vatican recognized Palestine as a state. Pope Francis […]

Pope, under heavy guard at Vatican, says refugees like “baby Jesus, who could not find shelter”

Dec 25, 2016 5:08 pm By Robert Spencer

“The painful experience of these brothers and sisters reminds us of that baby Jesus, who could not find shelter, was born in a stable in Bethlehem and was later brought to Egypt to escape Herod’s threat.” There was heightened security at the Vatican last night for Midnight Mass. Why? Aren’t Muslim migrants just like “baby […]

Heightened security for Midnight Mass at the Vatican due to Islamic State threats

Dec 24, 2016 2:41 pm By Robert Spencer

All these heightened security measures should immediately be dismantled. Why? The Pope’s own words. These security measures are hardly welcoming to the stranger. “It is hypocritical to call yourself a Christian and to chase away a refugee, or anyone who needs your help. Jesus taught us what it means to be a good Christian in […]

Italy deports Muslim who was planning jihad bombing in the Vatican

Dec 8, 2016 4:05 pm By Robert Spencer

“The jihadist has been described by those who knew him as ‘fanatical‘ and eager to ‘die in God’s name to win Paradise.’” “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah , so they kill and are killed.” — […]

Italy: “Give us back our mosques or we will pray to Allah in the Vatican”

Nov 20, 2016 11:04 am By Robert Spencer

The Pope should welcome them into the Vatican and give them a church to pray in. After all, he just said: “We see, for example, how quickly those among us with the status of a stranger, an immigrant, or a refugee, become a threat, take on the status of an enemy. An enemy because they […]

Pope declares “the world is at war” but denies Islam has any role

Jul 28, 2016 11:10 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Pope Francis declared that “the world is at war” following the slitting of the throat of an 86-year-old priest by two Islamic State-linked jihadists, right in the middle of a mass in France.  The jihadists shouted “Allahu akbar” during the barbaric drama, during which they also took two nuns hostage. The Pope went on to […]

Petition for new Brexit vote gets 39,411 signatures from Vatican City – pop. 800

Jun 26, 2016 11:07 am By Robert Spencer

This reminds me of Left-fascist Nick Lowles’ Hope Not Hate petition to ban me from the UK, which gained an extraordinary number of signatures in a very short time, no doubt including many more people than had ever actually heard of my existence — and was never examined by parliamentary authorities. Clearly the European political […]

Pope Francis wants “dialogue” with Muslim leader who broke off ties after Benedict XVI condemned jihad mass murder attack

Feb 28, 2016 4:41 pm By Robert Spencer

“el-Tayeb has been imam of the al-Azhar Mosque since his 2010 election. He was elected rector of the university in 2003. He is considered a moderate Sunni who has worked to prevent Islamic radicalization.” This moderate Sunni blames the unrest in the Middle East on “world Zionism” and refuses to denounce the Islamic State as […]

Muslim scholar tells Vatican conference that mercy is “the core of Islam”

Feb 28, 2016 1:33 pm By Robert Spencer

For those in the audience who might have thought this claim risible in light of current events — although there may not have been any skeptics at all, since the room was full of Catholic theologians — Khan did say: that although mercy is “the core of Islam,” “Islam as an ideal and Islam as […]

Germany’s ambassador to the Vatican: “Islam…is part of the solution”

Jan 19, 2016 9:20 am By Robert Spencer

Annette Schavan says: “There are warmongers who embrace religion. But that does not mean that religion promotes war. Religion has the great power to bring peace.” It doesn’t seem to occur to her that there is not a single unified entity called “religion,” or that different religions actually teach different values. She assumes that whatever […]

Pope admits danger of Islamic State infiltration among refugees, still wants parishes to take them in

Sep 14, 2015 11:41 am By Robert Spencer

What could possibly go wrong? Last February, the Islamic State promised to flood Europe in the near future with as many as 500,000 refugees. And an Islamic State operative recently boasted that among the flood of refugees, 4,000 Islamic State jihadis had entered Europe. “They are going like refugees,” he said, but they were going […]

Vatican officially recognizes the “State of Palestine”

May 13, 2015 10:01 am By Robert Spencer

There is no “State of Palestine” at this time. This is part of the ongoing pressure upon Israel to create one. Creating one will be a great victory for the global jihad force, as a “State of Palestine” will inevitably be a new jihad base for renewed attacks against what remains of Israel. Events will […]

Turks irked at Pope Francis’ referring to Armenian Genocide

Apr 12, 2015 10:23 am By Robert Spencer

The Turks are irked because they have never admitted that their mass murder of the Armenians was a genocide. Islamic supremacists never take responsibility for any evil they have done, or that other Islamic supremacists have done. It either didn’t happen, or was done by someone else, or was the Infidels’ fault. And so the […]

Islamic State’s magazine shows its flag flying over the Vatican

Oct 13, 2014 10:50 am By Robert Spencer

The Islamic State — extremists! No other Muslims think this way, right? Sheik Ali Al-Faqir, former Jordanian minister of religious endowment, said this on Al-Aqsa TV on May 2, 2008: “We proclaim that we will conquer Rome, like Constantinople was conquered once…” Hamas MP and Islamic cleric Yunis Al-Astal said this, also on Al-Aqsa TV, […]

The Pope’s new Coptic secretary: Islam is a “culture of death”

May 4, 2014 3:06 pm By Robert Spencer

This is odd and surprising. It would seem most likely that the Pope wanted a secretary from the Islamic world to show his favorable view of Islam, and is unaware of Father Yoannis Lahzi Gaido’s previous statements. He will undoubtedly soon find out, however, if he hasn’t already, and what happens then will be interesting. […]

“Dialogue” in Syria: Islamic jihadis hit Vatican embassy in Damascus with mortar round

Nov 6, 2013 3:37 pm By Robert Spencer

“Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, February 8, 2013 More fruitful “dialogue”: “Mortar round hits Vatican embassy in Damascus, say sources,” from […]

Pope canonizes 800 Christians murdered for refusing to convert to Islam

May 12, 2013 11:18 am By Robert Spencer

Pope Benedict XVI decreed the canonization; Pope Francis was stuck with it. The BBC adds in a sidebar: Otranto 14 August 1480 The `’Martyrs of Otranto” were 813 Italians beheaded for defying demands by Turkish invaders to renounce Christianity The Turks had been sent by Mohammed II, who had already captured the “second Rome” of […]

Vatican hosts Hizballah top dogs, Maronite Patriarch declares support for jihad against Israel

Nov 26, 2012 8:57 am By Robert Spencer

As I said here, the Vatican has entered a very, very dark age. It is understandable, if not forgivable, for the Maronite Patriarch, Bechara Boutros Rai, to play the dhimmi and appease Hizballah, since he lives in Lebanon. However, the Vatican in entertaining Iranian envoys (the second largest diplomatic corps at the Holy See) and […]

Vatican cardinal’s blood libel: “I think of the “˜massacre of the innocents”. Children are dying in Gaza”

Nov 21, 2012 2:24 pm By Robert Spencer

Shameful and unconscionable. Not a word about how Hamas launches attacks from civilian areas in order to provoke civilian casualties they can use for propaganda purposes. Not a word about how the Palestinian propaganda machine publishes faked footage of civilian deaths. Not a word about the indiscriminate rocket attacks against Israeli civilians. Not a word […]

Radio Vatikan on Bosnia and the ethnic cleansing of Catholics

Feb 3, 2012 8:17 am By Nicolai Sennels

“Radio Vatikan. The Voice of the Pope and the World Church,” the German-language division of Vatican Radio, is not as politically correct as the Pope himself — who became very quiet after apologizing for quoting the Byzantine Emperor Manuel II Paleologos, who said in 1391: “Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and […]
