Pope Francis used his holiday mass to urge Christians to think “of the wars, of the machine-gunned children, of the bombs on schools or hospitals,” reinforcing his overt and covert criticism of Israel’s 15-month-old war against Hamas in Gaza.
In his X-mas address the following day in front of thousands gathered outside of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, the 88-year-old pontiff denounced what he described as the “extremely grave” humanitarian situation in Gaza.
“I think of the Christian communities in Israel and Palestine, particularly in Gaza, where the humanitarian situation is extremely grave. May there be a ceasefire, may the hostages be released and aid be given to the people worn out by hunger and by war,” the pope said. He also calling for “arms to be silenced” around the world.
The remarks come days after the leader of the Catholic Church twice denounced what he called the “cruelty” of Israeli strikes, which prompted criticism from Israeli officials who said he ignored the cruelty of the Palestinian terrorist group and applied a double standard that singled out Jews.
The Tuesday night mass held at the Vatican came as relations between the pontiff and Israel plunged this month after his increasingly harsh criticism of the war.
“In his continued attitude towards Israel, the Pope is undermining 80 years of rebuilding relations between Roman Catholics and Jews since the Holocaust when the Vatican protected Nazis,” Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Sharren Haskel wrote on X this weekend. JNS

He’s 88 years old, the worms are waiting for this vile creature. He’ll be gone soon, the question is how much more damage he will cause the Jewish people.
He was 83 when they handled him and hasn’t done any damage 5 years.
Look at his main concern civilians caught in collateral damage and not the hostages who were grabbed from their homes and are being constantly tortured
The hostages are not his concern at all he only mentions them when he brings up civilians in Gaza and he’s forced to mention the hostages in gaza as well.
I remember when a few very misled frum individuals went to dance in front of the pope r”l. at that time headlines radio show was very keen on justifying their actions. he made the ridiculous claim that if during world war two there would have been better relationships with the vatican we could have saved many more Jews. besides the undertones of apicursus in his message, he was now shown to be wrong. it is no surprise he can join the long list of ”well meaning” yiddin who thought they can solve antisemitism by abandoning Hashem(think moses mendolson and hertzl)
And how about thinking of ALL the YIDISH BLOOD that has been spilled throughout the ages, all in the name of that MAMZER from Nazereth
wait till the terrorists come for him
then he will sing a different tune
jewish blood is cheap to him
and if the terrorists are building their command centers in schools and hospitals then it needs to be destroyed
or more innocent jewish blood could CH be spilled
oh jewish blood is cheap.
would make Pope Pius XII proud and all the popes that called for the crusades

I wonder what they think of this fool in Gaza…
This guy is a disgrace to his yarmulke
What makes you say that the others who were these specific yarmulke’s are any better?
Think about the massacre on October 7th
And also the violence against Jews for over a thousand years by people such as the Akum in the Roman Catholic Church!
