I am sure the Pope will school us, yet again, on how Islam is peace and that there is no violence in the Quran. And that is the islamophobes who are the problem.

There is no cure for stupid, no matter what muslims do, there will always be apologists for their criminally insane violence.
Maybe if the muslamics kill the pope they’ll get somebody in there that knows how to lead and not wash feet.
I wonder at the outcry when/if Kaaba (Mecca); Quba (Medina) and/or Al Aqsa (Jerusalem) are attacked by non-Muslims?
The mind boggles.
Spare a prayer for the brave Christian souls who remain in these lands.

That is all the muslim scum know; death and destruction.
Dumb assed Pope trying to get along with Muslims. He needs to come out of that walled enclave of his at the Vatican and call for another Crusade to drive these bastards back to the 7th century where they belong.
