Pope Leo Claims Fear of Islam in Europe is Bigotry and Says Lebanon is a Model for Europe
Lebanon is a Christian puppet regime controlled by Muslim terrorists.
Pope Leo just wrapped his tour of oppressed Christian communities in Islamist dominated nations like Turkey and Lebanon. Rather than directly address thepersecution of Christians, he praised the local regimes, met with Muslim leaders, took off his shoes at a mosque and took refuge in vague generalities.
In Lebanon, Pope Leo offered no direct criticism of Hezbollah or Islam. He visited and prayed at the Port of Beirut, where a Hezbollah weapons explosion killed over 200 people, many of them Christians, and the blast damaged churches and devastated families.
Pope Leo avoided placing blame, claiming instead that it’s natural to be “paralyzed by powerlessness in the face of evil”, but urged Lebanese Christians to “cast off the armor of our ethnic and political divisions, open our religious confessions to mutual encounter and reawaken in our hearts the dream of a united Lebanon.” This is actual powerlessness in the face of evil.
Lebanese Maronite Archbishop Paul Abdel Sater had a blunter message. “Our beloved martyrs and victims of the Aug. 4, 2020 explosion, you remain in us, and we remain faithful. We will not forget, we will not tire, and we will not remain silent, for your sake, for our sake, and for the sake of our homeland, Lebanon. The blood of the innocent cries out to God for justice.”
On the plane, Pope Leo was finally asked directly about the Islamic invasion of the West. And he replied that only bigots worry about it.
Reporter: Hello. Um, thank you for this very interesting trip. You you just talk about continue to build bridge um between different world and I like to ask um some Catholics in Europe believe that Islam is a threat um to a Christian identity uh of the West. Are you are they right? And what will you say to them?
Pope Leo: All of the conversations that I had during my time both in Turkey and in Lebanon, including with many Muslims were precisely um concentrated on the topic of peace and respect for people of different religions. I know that as a matter of fact that has not always been the case.
I know that in Europe there are many times fears that are present but oftentimes generated by people who are against immigration and trying to keep out people who may be from another country, another religion, another race. And in that sense I would say that we all need to work together.
One of the values of this trip is precisely to raise the world’s attention to the possibility that dialogue and friendship between Muslims and Christians is possible. I think one of the great lessons that Lebanon can teach to the world is precisely showing a land where Islam, Christianity are both present and are respected and that there is a possibility to live together, to be friends. stories, testimony, witnesses that we heard even in the past two days of people helping each other, those are lessons that are important and should be heard in Europe or North America that uh we should perhaps be a little less fearful and look for ways of promoting authentic dialogue and respect.
Lebanon’s indigenous Christians have been vanishing while its conquering Muslim population has been growing. Lebanon’s Christian politicians in power serve as puppet regimes for Hezbollah and other Islamic terrorist groups.
Is that the model Pope Leo wants for Europe and America? Apparently yes.
And the only people who oppose it are bigots “who are against immigration and trying to keep out people who may be from another country, another religion, another race.”.
