This was second hand from an internal call, not an official statement. Even in an internal call he used the more graphic word "slaughter" rather than "violence" or "killing".
This is action, which you have to admit is far beyond the bare minimum of flapping lips. Many politicians use the word "genocide" and do nothing beyond that. I disagree with organized religion as a whole but I am not going to bad mouth a group that was housing 600+ people in their church, including elderly, disabled, and children. The church was hit by the IDF and they killed the priest, and after all that the Pope calls his Cardinal in Jerusalem, not to tell him to stop his aid deliveries out of a concern for safety but to convey that they need to work harder to "stop the slaughter". Again, that's more than the "bare minimum".
Nuance. On Lemmy?
(But yes I agree).
it's more likely than you think
Good catch. I agree with you here.
Not for a man as powerful as the head of the Catholic Church. He could do more.
Yeah I really meant to yell at Leo in particular because IMO he's kind of a moderate (compared to Francis). Good point.
Again I think that for such a powerful man, this is the bare minimum. For example, go to the church himself instead of sending his people.
