Notice how he doesn't place any blame in his statement? He doesn't mention Israel at all. He speaks about Gaza like it's a natural disaster. It's vague anti-war populism.

"I am deepenly saddened by what is happening in the Gaza strip". Why doesn't he say that Israel is doing a genocide?

"Let the fire cease immediately." Israel and US have blocked a ceasefire since October 2023.

"Let humanitarian aid be provided to the exhausted civilian population." Israel has blocked all aid to Gaza since March 2.

"And may all hostages be freed." Zionist talking point. The hostages are the only bargaining chip that the Palestinians have for a cease fire.

Compare this to what he says about Ukraine.

"I carry in my heart the suffering of the beloved Ukrainian people." Why didn't he mention that people live in Gaza? He says that he cares about Ukrainian people. Doesn't mention the existence of Palestinian people.

Excommunicate Vance, Biden, and every other Catholic figure that supports israel

The lowest possible bar for the burgerpope has been crossed.

i'd say this constitutes probably a bit of a walk back from francis' commitments to palestine, but let's hope not. francis was calling a priest in occupied palestine like daily i want to say. a good way for leo to show that he intends to keep a similar tempo would be visibly following through on francis' wish to convert the popemobile in palestine into a mobile health clinic

Yeah sorry, this isn't any different to the standard 'anti-war' Western liberal who wants a ceasefire but refuses to do anything about the actual problem (Israel).

Vance killed the last pope for nothing!

This is going to royally piss of the young groyper wing of tradcaths.

When Borell (the racist europe is a garden guy) has a more radical take, then its not looking good.

Remember there's a lot of Palestinians who are Christians and equally suffering in ongoing genocide, so this is the least funny hatman can do.

ok maybe this burger lover isnt as bad as i expected

woke pope
