A prayer at the odious, illegal wall. So simple, so meaningful, so real.

Netanyahu & Co. must be gnashing their teeth.

Wow, I like his style.

This is really a powerful picture. The words “Free Palestine” in front of Pope Francis, a huge, significant message, to be seen around the world. The Pope was supposed to have mentioned the words “The State of Palestine”, which would have made Bibi and his zio band, annoyed, but helpless, if true. Unlike the US leaders (like John Kerry, and others), they cannot control the Pope, and what he does, or says. No evil lobbies in the Vatican!
The Pope in his quiet way is sending a strong message, which will resound around the world, but heartless occupiers will be totally deaf and continue it’s crimes.

Wait for the “balance”.

Pathetic. He treats the occupier/occupied the same.
