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 […]
Where’s the Pope’s Encyclical on Christian Persecution?
Pope Francis recently released a new encyclical. Portions of it deal with environmentalism, global warming, and climate change. Naturally, this has prompted controversy. It’s noteworthy that Francis didn’t merely make a passing comment on global warming during this or that sermon, but that he issued a papal encyclical on the matter. Encyclicals are much more formal and […]
In Syria, Maronite patriarch denounces ‘death of the world’s conscience’
What killed the world’s conscience and rendered it indifferent to the plight of Christians in the Middle East? Well, when it comes to Cardinal Bechara Rai’s brother bishops in the West, it was the desire for a fruitless and self-defeating “dialogue” with Muslims that gave the appearance of genuine interfaith harmony, albeit without a scintilla […]
Pope Francis said to back sainthood for anti-Semitic priest
Canonization in the Roman Catholic Church has already become a charade, with recently deceased popes whose records are likely to be viewed by history quite differently from how they are now rushed to sainthood the way Roman Emperors used to be deified right after their deaths (no matter what rogues they had been in life), […]
Islamic State video calls for jihad in Balkans on eve of pope’s visit
No problem. The Pope will just explain to the jihadis how true Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an reject every form of violence. Abashed, they will lay down their arms. “Video calls for jihad in Balkans on eve of pope’s visit,” AFP, June 6, 2015: Islamists claiming to be members of the Islamic […]

William Kilpatrick — ‘Needed: A New Church Policy toward Islam, Pt. 2’
In our times and culture, speaking truth is so radical a concept that the following sounds almost revolutionary. As with Part 1, these questions and discussions apply to all Christian communions, and indeed all free peoples: “Church policy should at least be redirected toward telling the truth to fellow Catholics. Right now, Catholics are being […]
William Kilpatrick — ‘Needed: A New Church Policy Toward Islam, Pt 1’

Secular leaders, too, can profit by his patient reasoning. Part One of a Three Part Series.

Pope: “Anyone who does not recognize the State of Israel is guilty of anti-Semitism”
Pope Francis seems to have realized that his previous apparently full-throated endorsement of the “Palestinian” jihad was perhaps not entirely consistent with the Gospel message. “‘Not recognizing Israel as Jewish is anti-Semitic, Pope says,’” by Avi Lewis, Times of Israel, May 28, 2015: In what would constitute a stunning rhetorical volte-face, Pope Francis reportedly walked […]
Irish bishop harms dialogue, says 11 Christians are murdered every hour
Bishop McAreavey is an exception to the rule. Most of his brother bishops would be scandalized that he even dared to speak of this. But of course he did not identify the perpetrator. The Church is in full denial and appeasement mode. In other words, most bishops are betraying the Christians of the present and […]
