And not every Catholic is delighted. Pope Leo XIV went to the Italian island of Lampedusa to greet a large number of migrants from North and sub-Saharan Africa; the video has been seen by more than a million people, and it has elicited more than two thousand mostly negative comments. More on the smiling immigrant-favoring, […]
Islamic State jihadis threaten to murder Pope Leo ahead of his trip to Spain
Regarding Islam, Pope Leo has encouraged non-Muslims to “be a little less fearful and look for ways of promoting authentic dialogue and respect.” Accordingly, he should travel to Spain with no guards of any kind, and mingle frequently with the crowds who come out to see him. Any other course of action would be “Islamophobic,” […]
Pope Leo condemns ‘recent terrorist attacks’ in Chad and Mali without naming who committed them
Why do so few Christians in the West speak out about the rampant persecution of Christians in the Islamic world? Because they don’t want to harm the “dialogue.” Yet this “dialogue” has not saved one single Christian from being murdered. Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, said it on February 8, 2013 as […]
Algeria: Pope’s message sparks ‘outrage among Christians, many of whom live with the daily threat to their lives’
The last pope, Pope Francis, was no better than Pope Leo, and may have been been worse. Pope Francis earned the sobriquet the Pope of Islam on Jihad Watch, but Pope Leo XIV is giving him stiff competition. There comes a point when people have had enough of being lied to, played for fools and […]
Algeria: Jihad suicide bombings were meant to ‘punish Algeria for welcoming the leader of the infidels,’ Pope Leo
After all the pope’s overtures and outreach, this is the thanks he gets. You’d almost think that one side isn’t really interested in the “dialogue” that Leo is sure will solve all the world’s problems. “UK Warns Tourists After Suicide Bombings Rock Algeria,” by Adil Faouzi, Morocco World News, April 14, 2026: Marrakech – The […]
Pope Leo Visits Muslim Jihadist Memorial to Killers of Christians
“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 […]
Is the Pope Cheering on the West’s Civilizational Suicide?
Popes of earlier ages would not recognize this man’s teaching. On Palm Sunday, March 29, 2026, Pope Leo XIV preached a homily that has been getting a great deal of attention for his claim that “Jesus, King of Peace,” actually “does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: ‘Even though […]
Pope Leo Claims Murder of Christians Is About ‘Economics,’ Not Islam
“Let’s keep in mind that many Muslims who come to Nigeria are victims of this intolerance” Christians in Nigeria continue to be under attack even if they haven’t attracted a fraction of the attention as trendier causes. At least 13 worshippers were abducted when gunmen attacked a church in Kogi state, central Nigeria, amid rising insecurity in […]
The Nativity Blues, Or, I’ve Got It Bad and That Ain’t Good
Earlier today, I finished helping my wife decorate a satisfyingly small in height but wide in girth tree, and then I set out our own Nativity Scene. Everyone other than Jesus is there — he’ll join the scene on Christmas Eve, after the Midnight Mass. Mary is there, and Joseph, and three Wise Men from […]
What Is the Lesson of Lebanon?
We know what Pope Leo XIV thinks that the example of Lebanon teaches us: that Christians and Muslims can live together in harmony, and we in Europe should, therefore, not be alarmed by the demographic changes we are currently enduring, as Muslim numbers continue to rise. There is no reason, Pope Leo believes, to fear […]
