Pope says some refugee centres 'concentration camps'

Rome (AFP) - Pope Francis on Saturday described some of Europe's refugee centres as "concentration camps" as he paid tribute to an unknown Christian woman slain for her faith in front of her Muslim husband.

"These refugee camps -- so many are concentration camps, crowded with people... because international accords seem more important than human rights," Francis said in impromptu remarks at a ceremony in memory of modern day Christian martyrs.

Departing from his prepared script and appearing unusually emotional as he spoke, the 80-year-old pontiff said he wanted the woman to be remembered along with all the other martyrs commemorated in Rome's Basilica of St Bartholomew.

He revealed that he had met the woman's husband during his visit to a refugee camp on the Greek island of Lesbos last year.

"I do not know what happened to him, if he managed to get out of his concentration camp, and get to somewhere else" Francis said, describing the man as a father-of-three but not revealing his nationality.

The ImPopester should read up on what real concentration camps were all about.

Someone in the Vatican should really take Francis aside and tell him that the likely result o f constant overexaggeration is exactly the result found in Chicken Little and The Boy Who Cried Wolf. The SJWs here have not yet discovered that truth either with their constant cry of racist, homophobic, misogynistic, xenophobic hater.

Three basically good popes in a row ( yes I realize nobody’s perfect but still -—). And now THIS?! About all will say is ... very disappointing. Very.

“Concentration camps’’? You worthless piece of sh!t in a popes mitere. What an insult to the countries who have had to deal with this human garbage and the violence they've bought to Western Europe. And what a TOWERING insult to the victims of the real horror of the camps and to the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought to liberate the camps. This pope is a Marxist scumbag.

Oh, whatever...

The ones in the refugee camps want to reopen the concentration camps for Jews and other infidels.

Please Francis, you are a huge fake political puppet.

It’s really hard to create refugee comfort zones, when facing an invasion of hundreds, thousands, or more.

Poper needs to look at the causation, lament that awhile, and lay off the care takers of these hordes driven out of their homes and countries.

Maybe the camps need some gas so they can be more authentic. Assad should be able to donate some.

This one’s easy: If you don’t like the European accommodations, then GO HOME!
