Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Pope Leo Visits Muslim Jihadist Memorial to Killers of Christians

By

“They gave them up for the love of their own people.”

Imagine that Hamas had won on Oct 7 and the victims were Christians. That’s what happened in Algeria. Islamist and Marxist terrorists during the Algerian War waged a ruthless campaign against the non-Muslim population. Including Jews.

The atrocities by Muslim terrorists included the slitting of women’s throats and babies being murdered by having their heads smashed against walls. The massacres climaxed in the Oran Massacre in which De Gaulle’s corrupt regime refused to protect Christians and Jews from the Muslim mob.

The Catholic Church virtually disappeared in Algeria after the Islamic takeover. The dead included martyred members of the church.

The memory of violence during Algeria’s civil conflict in the 1990s is central to the identity of the Catholic Church in the country. During that period, several clergy and women and men religious were killed, including monks murdered during the Tibhirine abbey massacre in 1996 and Bishop Pierre Claverie of Oran. Catholic monk Jean-Pierre Schumacher was left to tell of the ill-famed 1996 massacre at the Algerian monastery of Tibhirine in which seven of his confreres were brutally killed.

The Church’s position on these massacres has been surreal, at once honoring the dead and their killers.

Bishop Pierre Claverie and his 18 companions, who were martyred in Algeria by Islamists between 1994 and 1996, were beatified Saturday during a Mass in Oran.

Archbishop Paul Desfarges of Algiers noted the “thousands of victims of the Algerian civil war,” calling them anonymous heroes.

“We did not want a beatification between Christians, because these brothers and sisters died among tens and tens of thousands of Algerian” Muslims, he stated.

Algeriaʼs population is almost entirely Muslim.

… because the Christians were killed or driven out.

Relatives of those beatified were received by Muslim dignitaries at the Ibn Badis Grand Mosque, where Mostapha Jaber, an imam, said, “We Muslims associate this event with much joy.”

Pope Leo, in between berating President Trump for standing up to Islamic Terror, paid tribute to the killers.

At his first public event in Algeria, Pope Leo XIV visited the Martyrs’ Monument, “Maqam Echahid,” which commemorates those who lost their lives in the Algerian War for Independence in 1954-1962.

The visit to the monument is a moment to pay tribute to the history of Algeria and the spirit of those who fought for independence, dignity, and sovereignty.

Pope Leo stressed that the people being honored at the monument “have already given their answer. They lost their lives but in doing so, they gave them up for the love of their own people.”

Their people being… Arab Muslims. They did indeed love their own people and hated Pope Leo’s people. Pope Leo hates his own people and loves their Muslim killers.

It’s important to note that the Martyrs Monument doesn’t honor those who “lost their lives” in the war. It honors the terrorists and killers.

Underneath the ‘Monument’ is the El Mujahid Museum. That means Jihadis. This is an evil madness. But then so was the French treatment of its own citizens in Algeria, the British government’s treatment of the girls being raped by Pakistani Muslim sex grooming gangs and the treatment of Americans standing up to Islamic terrorism after 9/11.

Evil’s greatest trick is to pretend that it stands for peace even as it empowers the monsters and the killers.

Comments

  1. This is Pure Evil !! As a Roman Catholic, I find this so called Catholic pope, disgusting and NOT CATHOLIC but a lover of the Demonic ideology, Islam

    • You do know, the Catholic Church is actively giving out free churches to Muslims all over Europe.

      Muslims want to save money and they want free churches to turn into mosques. To show how how generous Catholicos are , they are giving away free churches, closing them down, and handing them right to Pakistanis, Somalians, Syrians.

  2. Is it possible that Leo is as confused a human being as he seems to be time and time again?

    Seems so. And, if the case, what does this say about the contemporary Roman Catholic Church?

  3. I have always not trusted the Catholic Church even more so since this Pope and the last Pope have embraced Islam. That logic to embrace the very people who would not hesitate to kill you when they think your purpose is done is simply illogical.

    Satan has found a way inside the Church & the world is seeing it close up. Islam from the last Pope allowing Islam into Vatican City now knows what is inside & would likely guess they are planning some sort of attack to gain the city in the middle of Italy, after all how many Muslims now reside in that nation.

    Should Islam take Vatican City all the great art works will be destroyed & be painted over with Islamic works, that would be a tragedy.

    • “That logic to embrace the very people who would not hesitate to kill you when they think your purpose is done is simply illogical.”

      It took me a long time to understand their logic. I thought it would be a simple matter to remind such people of how many leftists the new regime in Iran had murdered back in 1979, but that didn’t work.

      It all goes back to what I think of as the Prime Moral Imperative of our era, which is that the One must accept the Other, lest the One be no better than a Nazi. So, if you are a One, then you need to accept the Other. Whites must accept blacks, males must accept females, heterosexuals must accept homosexuals, the law-abiding must accept criminals, people must accept animals and the environment generally, the native-born must accept a flood of immigrants, and Westerners must accept Muslims.

      And at the heart of it is the insistence that the One is guilty and the Other is innocent.

      This imperative is constantly pushed by the leftist elites in our cultural institutions, and it is why we see so much craziness. J.K. Rowling is a Nazi because she won’t accept trannies. There is no good reason for trying to become friends with a grizzly bear, yet someone did so, with the predictable result. The global warming crowd is impervious to any practical considerations, and simply has an almost religious fervor against the One using fossil fuels. (It’s ok if China does, though, because they are an Other.) The “no kings” protesters do not care if an illegal immigrant has raped a citizen. And none of them care if Muslims rape and murder us, because no matter how awful Muslims are, we are worse. And if you do not agree you are a bigot and are no better than Hitler.

      And the more we resist the Muslim invasion, the more we show how bigoted we are, which simply strengthens their belief that we are Nazis and so deserve even more Muslims.

      Needless to say, this is a defective moral imperative, for the simple reason that it goes only one way. That is, these people would never ask Muslims to accept us, because that would be racist. And it is of course a dreadful development in the Western world that may lead to a permanent dark age.

      I do not know of any way to counter these people. Facts are irrelevant because they believe that we are worse than any Muslim. It’s like trying to get a battered wife to stop sticking up for her man.

      I just don’t see any way to stop Islamification short of a dreadful civil war that we may lose anyway.

      • Turning a blind eye to what Islam is. For so long in America the democrats have catered to Islam. The 1965 revision of the 1952 immigration law so that Islam could enter into America under “religion” freedom 1st Amendment. There are many people that will state jihad is part of said religion without fully understanding that Jihad is the destruction of humanity that is not Islamic.

        Ignorance is a huge part of why they do not understand Islam and refuse to face facts or think its a middle east thing. Can we stop Islam, yes I think there is a way.

        What is that way/ first take religion out of the picture, second declare Islam a foreign government and begin to shut down groups that promote “Death to America” then remove these people from America.

        If Muslims that are Americans & they state they follow Islam remove them as well because they accept the foreign government aka sharia law and not the constitution.

        The hardest part is to use Islam against itself & to do that use the Koran and Reliance of the Traveller, but here’s the catch: use the Arabic wording instead of the English wording because it is different from the English translation.

  4. “hates his own people and loves their Muslim killers.” This is True….except that the terror-loving goon’s “people” are the muzzie killers.

    The Bible (which the ‘pope creature’….creature called ‘pope’, false prophet, wolf in sheep’s clothing, unwashed cup, tomb of the dead, serpent, viper,’ claims to know)…says that there are evil, deceitful men who present themselves as God’s “ministers,” and this does not surprise because “satan keeps presenting himself as an angel of light.”

    The Apostle Paul wrote that Scripture about such ones as the “pope creature” to the congregation in Corinth
    “13For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. 14And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their actions.…”

    The few Catholics in algeria must be really hurting to see this guy they are told is their ‘leader’ snuggling up to those who hate and will easily murder them. And if they are murdered, the ‘pope’ won’t care.

    • Your blind, Protestant hatred of the Pope’s place in Christianity does nothing to further this site’s purpse

      Save the hate for Islam.

      • I am a Roman Catholic and I’ve had serious problems w/the last two Pope’s who are going along with the world and selling out Christ’s Church He founded. Bergoglio & Provost are 2 popes that a Catholic mystic once stated they would be the Last 2 Worm popes, not good! We of the human race, all have sinned and this world, especially America, is ripe for Destruction. Pornography, Divorce, Child mutilation, Drugs, hatred, homosexuality & every Sin under the sun not to mention ‘the killing of the Baby in the Womb, ‘ALL a Sin against Almighty God.!
        This Planet will Not survive…

      • I am glad that the news has come out about the pope who is a false prophet. They now are saying terrible things and it is happening other places with the catholic church which is getting very dangerous. They have lied about other things also.

  5. I wonder if he is going to clean and kiss some muslim feet like the last pope.

  6. “Cruz calls Carlson ‘deranged, leftist psycho’ following comments on Muslims”

    “Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) accused right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson of turning into a “deranged, Leftist psycho” who “loves Sharia” law on Wednesday in a social media post.

    Cruz was responding to a post from his media company on the social platform X, which stated, “Muslims love Jesus.””

  7. Now I’m starting to wonder whether or not Pope Leo is a closet muslim…

      • Metric: Bergoglio not pope. Prevost not pope. 2 antipopes. Same. Disgrace not precise term. Prevost worse because he carries on Bergoglion apostasy more openly. Says quiet part our loud, as if it were normal, you radical reactionary. All of this one world anti God b.s. was embroyonic in V2 by ’65. I was there. Kiss up to the antifaith and don’t ask questions. Thanks Greenfield. And Father, Son, Holy Ghost.

  9. This is abhorrent, treasonous behavior towards all Christians and western civilization.
    He is a product of leftism which is suicidal and believes that the destruction of the west is warranted by any means.
    Kissing up to Islam with all their atrocities against Christians and Jews is madness and shameful.

    • The Pope is walking into a trap willingly. Islam is using him as a show of expectance of Islam as a legitimate religion and therefore protected under federal law. His actions will result in the deaths of Catholics and other religions around the world.

  10. The Muslims must be laughing this gullible, hapless pope. I read or heard somewhere that this pope is a member of the Augustinians and has gone to this Muslim shithole because is where st Augustine was from. Tobe fair to Catholicism, jihad watch has recently had a German and an African who are Catholics and are wide awake to islam. The protestant church leaders seem just as pathetic when it comes to evil islam. I am a Catholic but could leave and become an Anglican tomorrow because there should be married priests and women priests. But there are lots of gullible fools when it comes to islam in all branches of Christianity.

    • Tim, it may be that they are told by others that when Jesus said, “love your enemy” they take it literally, that they must consider muzzies as they do other Christians.

      “Love your enemy and pray for him, ” means we don’t go out and do harm. We can get this by what Jesus said about those He “calls His friends.” He said, “You are my friends if you do what I command you.”

      It’s past time that people wake up. To be “cautious as serpents, innocent as doves” and not bring the death from those who hate upon themselves.

    • Precisely, Tim.

      75 now (same age?)

      I left Catholicism in High School and have been an atheist for about 50 years.

      There definitely are gullible fools regarding Islam in all branches of Christianity.

      In politics, in journalism, in education, etc., too.

      Keep us informed about Ben Roberts-Smith.

    • Somehistory, I think you are right about how these Christian leader think they have to be doormats and do nothing but turn the other cheek. Hitler and the Japanese would have won WW2 if people had followed their pacifist crap. I was thinking the pope is like a quaker, a total pacifist. I did my first hour of busking this morning. It went pretty well. It is in a pleasant place with nice people though planes fly over low quite often, very noisy then. Pr cd usn, I will let you know about Ben Roberts smith. I think it will be a slow legal process. He is quite obviously incredibly brave. I don’t know whether he did murder people. I have often thought that he would have been a huge target for the enemy because he is a giant and super fit looking. I didn’t know how tall he is until his recent arrest when the news said he 6 foot 7 inches tall. He was never going to run away so some of the media were pissed off with the way he was arrested in front of his daughter and the police made a show things when he would have quietly turned himself in.

      • Tim, I’m glad you were able to try out your busking and it went well. Perhaps the low-flying planes won’t be there every time.

        • It is not far to a major airport so you always get the planes. No big deal. It’s quiet in between I can go to a few other places but is a good place. This whole inner city area would have plenty of musicians and artists living here so maybe one of them might like one of my songs. There was a woman sitting listening who came up and asked about a song I had just sung saying she vaguely remembered it and we talked for a while.. I do some well known songs like stand by me, etc but a lot I like but not well known. The song she asked about was Kate wolf’s song across the great divide, not so well known. I was about too early and not a lot of people around but it was good try out.

        • Tim, I didn’t know about the airport. But if the lady came to listen and comment, then I guess people could still hear and enjoy your music.
          I hope you let us know about your future endeavors and successes.

          I took an uber (home from the eye doctor) and the driver was listening to old country music; and the next morning, I woke with a T.G. Sheperd song going around in my head. And I, too, sing along when listening to music, on the radio or computer. I find it relaxing….and memory building…to do so.

        • Thanks, gravenimage. I felt relaxed. I enjoy singing. I guess it is why people join choirs. If I am at home listening to and watching people on YouTube I’m always singing along with, same in church I sing along but don’t want to join the choir. I hope you are going well.

    • Women priests? Really? In ’68 our 5th grade class, St. Agnes, Arlington, Va., Sister Mary David Ann, (“That’s my name. Don’t wear it out.”
      ) was taken on a field teip to the main mosque in Washington D.C. Ecuminism. Surrender without a fight. It goes way back.

  11. Your blind, Protestant hatred of the Pope’s place in Christianity does nothing to further this site’s purpse

    Save the hate for Islam.

  12. “Amid quarrel with pope, Trump strips Miami charity of funding to house migrant kids”

    “The Trump administration has abruptly canceled an $11 million contract with Catholic Charities to shelter and care for migrant children who enter the U.S. alone, ending a relationship between the Catholic Church and the U.S. government dating back to the first arrivals of Cuban exiles in South Florida.”

    “The Office of Refugee Resettlement, part of the federal Department of Health and Human Services, has paid Catholic Charities in Miami for several years to house immigrant children who enter the U.S. without parents or adult supervision. The non-profit operates the equivalent of a federally funded foster care system, separate and apart from state agencies that have custody of abused and neglected children. The federal government reached out to the charity in late March about the cancellation of the funding.

    • I’m certain there is more to the story, but we will never hear it from MSN. MSN’s primary goal is to make the president look bad.

      • There is probably a lot more, but it’s enough to realize that the Catholic charities have been misusing taxpayer dollars to help muzzies gain power here.

        • I read that the government has given the catholic church huge amounts of money to place people in a place to live and they hired muslims to do that so they started bringing in only muslims to help them only.

    Murdering Christians is not love…

  14. Ich wette, dass dieser Himmelskomiker 4mal Corona gespritzt ist. Die Nebenwirkungen dieser Injektion sind hinreichend dokumentiert.

  16. Who is the ‘false prophet’ in the book of Revelation(13:11-15)? He is described as looking like a lamb(Jesus) but speaking like a dragon(Satan). The pope, and the previous one, is rehearsing his role as the end-times partner of the Muslim Antichrist in a one world government

  18. It seems that the Muslims, the Catholic church, and the free western world are beyond redemption. We’ve all fallen for the propaganda put out by the leftist media.

    • Well,you haven’t. I haven’t. Mr. Greenfield hasn’t. Muslims laugh at our weakness. The Catholic Church has been infiltrated by pagans and commies and queers (really) for a hundred years now. As we advance materially, we compensate by shrinking spiritually.

  19. “David Axelrod trying to tamp down speculation after meeting the pope”

    “David Axelrod, a senior advisor to former president Barack Obama, put out a statement on X quelling rumors that a Thursday meeting between himself and Pope Leo XIV was a precursor to a potential Pontifex-Obama summit.

    “To be clear, I was gratified and honored that Pope Leo XIV granted my request for an audience and thrilled to spend a some time with him last week,” Axelrod wrote.”

  21. The “War of Algerian Independence” brought back many memories of Leftist delusions
    and their deluded history with Islam.

    There’s Injustice in the World.
    The Left and the Islamic World form a Popular Front to defeat Injustice.

    After success, the Muslim World takes the rest of the Popular Front out and shoots them

    Let’s see: The Algerian War for Independence (1990’s)
    The Iranian Revolution (1979)
    Afghan Civil War (1980’s-1990’s)
    The Syrian War (2011- Current)
    Bosnian War (1992-95)
    Indonesia (The purge in 1965-66 following the 1948 war.)

    Please feel free to add if I’ve forgotten any.

    You see you’ve only been at this since the Russian Revolution, early in the 18th Century, about 109 years
    .
    Compare that to Islams 1,404 years of slaughter and Conquest.
    Islam declared war, Jihad, on ALL unbelievers, in 622 AD.
    Islam has much more experience with conquest and deceiving their foolish “allies” than you do.

    It would be best all around if you would recognize that “Chickens for KFC” is not a winning Strategy.

  22. I’ve followed Jihad Watch (gratefully) for many years and have yet to see so many responses to an article.

    • Back about 15 years ago, each article would have several hundred comments. However, there were not as many articles on which to comment each day.

      • True, Ralph and Somehistory. I can remember many articles with upwards of a hundred comments–but it has been a while. But always good to see articles here which attract a lot of comments.

        • g, when I first began reading the articles, there would be so many comments on a thread, that my computer couldn’t load all of them without taking so much time, that I didn’t have to spend. So, I would just read the article and not comment. I didn’t even real most when they would number in the hundreds.
          When it began to be more articles every day, fewer comments on each made it easier to leave a comment of my own.

  23. How many security personnel accompanied his as he ventured out from his 40 foot high defensive wall that surrounds the Vatican? I am sure that right now he feels safe behind that defensive wall but everyone on the outside can go to hell.

  25. “Pope Leo XIV celebrates historic Mass at rain-soaked Basilica in Algiers”

    The country has “47 million people. ” and a whopping number of 9,000 are Catholics.

    “Pope Leo XIV was welcomed by Cardinal Jean-Paul Vesco, Archbishop of Algiers, who received the pontiff as host of the visit and accompanied him to key religious and symbolic sites, including the Basilica of Our Lady of Africa. Known for his commitment to interfaith dialogue, Vesco has long promoted closer ties between Christianity and Islam.
    The visit carries strong symbolic weight, as Algeria has a Catholic community of around 9,000 people, mostly foreign residents. The basilica itself is a known interfaith site, often visited by Muslim worshippers. Leo linked his message to Saint Augustine, born in the region and a key figure in his Augustinian order.

    On Tuesday 15 April, he will travel to Annaba, ancient Hippo, where Augustine served for nearly 30 years. The Vatican says the tour underlines Africa’s growing role in the global Catholic Church.”

    Especially in Nigeria. …where the pope cares so much for the flock….of muzzies.
    Since the muzzies “often visit” the place, they *know* it belongs to them and not to the few Catholics.

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/pope-leo-xiv-celebrates-historic-mass-at-rain-soaked-basilica-in-algiers/ar-AA20PH02?ocid=msedgntp&pc=HCTS&cvid=69e1a68980eb4dfa871010a21c0feb8f&ei=63

  26. As an African I have been deeply appalled by the general enthusiasm with which a plurality westerners have so easily submitted themselves to Islamic tyranny. Ordinarily one would assume that the obvious culprits leading this charge into a dystopian hellscape would be of the secularist variety particularly those who lean towards what I would describe as Marxist fueled unthought. Such an assumption after all is in perfect accordance with common sense given the deep seated hatred people of the aforementioned persuasion have for anything that is even remotely beautiful up to and including life itself.

    However witnessing this dhimmitude in real time from what was once the self proclaimed bulwark of western civilization is disappointing to say the least and in actuality down right shocking. The question that plagues any clear thinking individual is “WHY”!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????? Why is this happening?

    It is at this juncture that I would like to offer an alternative explanation that I have not seen being elucidated on websites such as jihadwatch. Everyone assumes the primary culprits are incompetence, ignorance or toxic empathy, I’m not so sure. Granted it’s a hypothesis that is not based in any level of expertise pertaining to matters of the human psyche. I cannot claim to have any profound insights in that regard. What I can say from my own elementary observations of the world is that the human race seems to be broadly divided into two camps. On the one hand you have individuals who gain a sense of purpose in life by seeking control over natural phenomena. Scientists, engineers et al i.e. members of the technical class. And on the other hand individuals who derive meaning from seeking control over people and their “opinions/beliefs”. Thespians, politicians, influencers, the clergy etc.

    Now as perverse as it maybe to consider perhaps the oncoming dark age that we are barreling towards at break neck speed suites the upper echelons of the catholic hierarchy just fine. I mean after all once Islam takes over and all the advancements (brought about by the very culture that the church was so foundational to) have been rolled back. The white man, “epitome of evil that he is” with all his his independence and propinquity for free thought can be cut down to size by the invading hordes of Islamic savages. Then we the clergy as the heralds of God can take back our rightful place as dictators of what, when and how our flock of sheeple can do, well anything. There is just one crinkle in the “plan”. Provided of course that the “plan” isn’t a cynic like myself perceiving shadows where they don’t exist.

    The level of violence that’s required to be instigated by catholic militias to keep all of these inbred sub humans in check so that the catholic church can get back to being the rulers of mankind. All the while the occidental world continues spiraling towards living conditions that were last seen in the middle ages. Yeah, I am sorry to say that killer instinct has been bred out of westerners. In conclusion if matters continue as they have and based on my interpretation of the data. We are all F****d. I heartily welcome any response that would lead to our mutual enlightenment on the sh*t show that is dhimmitude. In the words of Donald Trump. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

    • Your claim that there are violent “catholic militias” is just false. Try again.

    • Gore Ozzie,
      I firmly believe the answers are in the words of Jesus Christ and the Revelation is proving True.
      The “gathering of nations for Armageddon” being a main point of what we are seeing.
      Jesus is soon to return and all of the things we are seeing are evidence of that.
