He said nothing, however, of the suffering of Gaza's 3,000 Christians since Hamas took over that territory in 2007. Benedict might well have decried the many bombings, shootings and other Islamist attacks against Gazan Christian establishments, the brutal murder of the territory's only Bible-store owner, or the regular intimidation and persecution of Christians there. His solidarity with Gazan Christians might have given them some much-needed strength.

Benedict, speaking from Bethlehem – the site of rampant Muslim persecution of Christians – did not once renounce the Islamic violence there, either. Instead, the pope stood beside Abbas as the Palestinian leader deceptively pointed to a concrete separation barrier in Bethlehem and blamed that barrier, as well as Israeli "occupation," for the plight of Christians.

I think it is outrageous that the Catholic Church has decided it is going demand a “palestinian state” - why don’t we demand the Arab sqatters go back to their respective countries...of Syria, Jordan, Egypt, etc...or take the original Palestinian state...Israel. The Pope’s Islam Apology Tour is really disgusting and embarassing..

Methinks Israelis, and you, might be better served by focusing your anger at Obama.

Or he could have talked about the plight of the Maronites in Lebanon who were abandoned to Hezbollah by a certain powerful nation whose border they used to protect.
