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.

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.

It would have been reported. This would be a two-fer for the liberal press. A chance to set Jews and Catholics at each others' throats.

Furthermore, there is no conspiracy of silence, the FR kook chorus, notwithstanding. Reuters, AP, The NY Times, the TV networks......one or more of them would have picked up on this and run with it.

There's zilch. Just Meiotti's garbage.
