Cardinal Pietro Parolin holds a role in the Vatican City State, located in the Italian capital of Rome, equivalent to that of a prime minister. …

When asked what the pope particularly intends to talk about during the visit, Parolin revealed he would talk about “on the one hand, Israel’s right to exist in peace and security within internationally recognized boundaries.” On the other side, the pope would talk about “the Palestinian people’s right to have a homeland, sovereign and independent, the right to move around freely, the right to live in dignity,” according to Parolin.

In fact, the Vatican recognized the “State of Palestine” in 2012 amid the United Nations (UN) vote to confer “Palestine” non-member observer state status, a status until then only held by the Vatican. …

As time goes on, the ineptitude of this individual’s selection to fill the shoes of St. Peter becomes increasingly manifest.

It is no longer possible to correct this guy’s reputation by reparcing his conversations.

Is it too soon for the Antichrist comparisons?

If it is, then a lot of people were 500 years too soon!

Guess the pope needs to brush up on end times prophecy.

I'm absolutely sure he is aware that
he is "Peter the Roman"

Well, he is determined to ‘Communize” the church, destroy borders and a bunch of other things so far that fly in the face of his predicessors. He may well be the last, AC references aside. He may be Pope to an empty church.

Ok ok.....now you got me. Yes, Peter the Roman was Malachy’s prediction...but Francis Peter the Roman?

Didn’t think we made this distinction yet? In fact, there were folks saying that his sec.of state(Archbishop Pietro Parolin of Italy) was truly Peter the Roman. What’chu know I don’t know. lol

Golan Heights didn’t “belong” to Syria. It got bounced between the French and British mandates until about 1944, and it was always contested after Israel got its independence.
