"No comment by Ravasi on the Israeli babies dying because they were purposely targeted by Hamas."

The Cardinal did not mention that there are nearly 20,000 legal abortions in Israel every year either. At nearly 10% of all Israeli pregnancies it is pretty clear that Israel kills more if its own innocents than Hamas does. Where is your outrage over those babies?

Peace be with you.

There should be outrage over it but those who think Israel can do no wrong will ignore this just like nationalist Americans ignore abortion in the US

Israel also persecutes Palestinian Christians that is also ignored

Nah he should not point fingers at Israel for that when so many Catholics do the same .

The Catholic Abortion Paradox Why are Catholic women in the U.S. more likely to have an abortion than their Protestant counterparts? http://www.beliefnet.com/Faiths/Catholic/2001/01/The-Catholic-Abortion-Paradox.aspx
According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, which tracks reproductive health data, non-Hispanic Catholic women of childbearing age are 29% more likely than their Protestant counterparts to have abortions (full study*). The rate is even higher--33%--if Hispanics are factored in. Another way of looking at it: while Protestant women make up about 54% of the population, they account for only 37% of the abortions. Catholic women make up 31% of the population and account for 31% of the abortions.
