The American Pope Decries Israel's Savage Treatment of Palestinians

I don't think Pope Leo is an antisemite, but Zionists who listen to his Christmas message might grant him the prestigious "Antisemite of the Year" award, handed over to him by the Zionist American lobby of the Anti Defamation League (ADL). His crime? He subtly criticized Israel for what it is doing to the Palestinians.

Pope Leo XIV celebrated the first Christmas since his election by denouncing the suffering of people of Gaza – taking shelter in tents from the “rain, wind and cold” – and by calling for the guns to fall silent in Ukraine.

On Christmas Day, the first US-born pope spoke in American English and called for compassion towards those who have fled their homelands to seek a future in Europe and America, a subtle middle finger aimed at Donald Dumb's racist and xenophobic policies.

Leo said that Jesus Christ is “our peace” because he “shows us the way to overcome conflicts, whether interpersonal or international. With his grace, we can and must each day our part to reject hatred, violence and opposition, and to practice dialogue, peace and reconciliation”. Lovely, but grace has long been missing in the Near East thanks to Islamic and Jewish barbarism and extremism.

The pontiff began by asking for “justice, peace and stability” for Lebanon, the Palestinian territories, Israel and Syria. Later, he said that, by becoming man, “Jesus took upon himself our fragility,” allowing him to identify “with those who have nothing left and have lost everything, like the inhabitants of Gaza.” These words must have stricken the MAGA morons like a bolt of lightning. How dare the Papist-in-Chief compare Jesus to Gaza's Palestinians? How dare he not sing the praises of the Evangelical Messiah, Donald Dumb who should now sue the Vatican for slander and cut off relations with it?

Earlier in the Mass, he asked how, at Christmas, “can we not think of the tents in Gaza, exposed for weeks to rain, wind and cold.” With more than 400,000 homes destroyed during Israel’s war against Hamas, Gazans are being forced to choose this winter between living in tents exposed to the elements or living inside buildings that could collapse any minute.

“Fragile is the flesh of defenseless populations, tried by so many wars, ongoing or concluded, leaving behind rubble and open wounds,” Leo said. Later during his Christmas message, he called for compassion towards those “who are fleeing their homeland to seek a future elsewhere, like the many refugees and migrants who cross the Mediterranean or traverse the American continent", in clear jab at Donald Dumb and his inhumane and racist policies.

Since his election, Leo has highlighted the plight of those suffering in Gaza, and has been outspoken by calling for the better treatment of migrants. In his first major interview in September, the American pope voiced concern over “some things” happening in the country of his birth, highlighting the significance of a letter his predecessor, Pope Francis, had sent to US bishops earlier this year, rebuking the administration’s deportation plans.

In his homily Leo talked about the “wisdom” of the Christmas story, saying that while humanity seeks to become “god” (e.g. Donald Dumb, Vladimir Putin and other dictators) in order to dominate others, God chose to become man in order to free us from every form of slavery. ”
