VATICAN REFUSES TO OFFER ASYLUM TO ASIA BIBI
Church Militant ^ | 12/17/2018 | David Nussman

Posted on 12/17/2018 1:13:58 PM PST by aimhigh

After years of struggle in the courts, Aasiya Noreen "Asia" Bibi — a Catholic mother of five — was acquited of charges of blasphemy in the Pakistan Supreme Court on Oct. 31. Islamic fundamentalists all over Pakistan immediately began protesting the acquittal. Many of the protesters demanded Bibi's death for her alleged blasphemy against the prophet Mohammad.

Since her acquittal, Bibi and her family have lived in fear for their lives. Many countries, such as Italy and Canada, have considered offering asylum to Bibi and her family members. Efforts to help the persecuted Catholic family have also been proposed in the United States and the United Kingdom.

But Cdl. Pietro Parolin, the Vatican's secretary of state, has said that the Vatican is not working to offer asylum to the family. He reportedly explained in November that the Vatican is not engaging in diplomatic activity to try to save Bibi, adding, "It's an issue inside Pakistan, I hope it can be resolved in the best way."

Millions of Muslim economic “migrants” are to be pushed upon Europe but no concern for one Catholic family on the brink of extinction from the Islamofascists.

This “Pope” is such a disgrace.

“Many of the protesters demanded Bibi’s death for her alleged blasphemy against the prophet Mohammad”.

This woman will be martyred if she isn’t granted asylum. What a Pope.

Just Damn. Everybody is afraid of what their local Muzzies will do. Maybe she needs to consider going to Israel, the Muzzies already hate them. I don’t see why we can’t bring her here, if anyone qualifies for asylum status she and her family should.

It’s worse than that. They won’t take true refugee Catholics but want everyone else to take jihadis with open arms.

Cowardice. From those who claim to hold morality over all else.

Precisely. President Trump should have the State Dept load her and the family on a plane, fly her to Italy and drop her off at the steps to the Papal residence. With lots and lots of cameras present.

Francis fears “allah” - not God. He’s a despicable fraud.

Astounding. Here way have a Catholic family faced with martyrdom and even our Vatican won’t save them?

Maybe our gutsy President can do it?

Hi.

I’m not going to say the word, “cowardice: in my opinion of this decision.

I wonder what made the Holy See decide against asylum?
