you can ping Lera to it. I can bet that you'll get no response

They've left the building......emptied the dumpster in the front lobby and driven off.

Even without the actual transcript of Ravasi's speech, this didn't pass the smell test. Nowhere else on the web is this reported. There are links,such as that at Jihad Watch, to this very article but nothing else. That fact alone should be enough to alert anyone with a little common sense that the flamebait of a headline posted above was the work of this author and not the words of Ravasi.

There is absolutely no question that had Ravasi uttered these words, there would have been multiple independent reports of them in all the usual media outlets, starting with the Catholic Church's greatest friend, The New York Times.

There are none and the transcript of Ravasi's words confirms my initial suspicions.

This thread is nothing but a useless kook magnet.

Is it not Thanksgiving where you live? In America it is a national holiday marked by family get togethers around large feasts. Some of us have been busy with such things so please do not interpret a lapse in response time to be a sign of desertion or surrender. I'm still interested in talking about this.

I wouldn't be so sure of that if I were you. The liberal media, in case you aren't aware, is on the side of the "Palestinians" against Israel. Read the articles posted lately on some of them over the latest "dust-up". You won't find much sympathy for Israel there.
