The vatican ALWAYS had something to say when it came to Jews
35. Your horns pop up every time the Catholic church is mentione
Idol Worship ,   USA   (01.08.09)
While the vatican has tremendous faults, Catholics admit it to themselves and each other, but those faults have to do with our own Human faults. You people act as though your god is with fault and you are the divine.
36. Sit down witht the Palestians?? Been there, done that...
Scott ,   USA   (01.08.09)
37. A THROUGHLY DISGUSTING THING FOR CARDINAL TO SAY
amymarkell ,   usa   (01.08.09)
I cant think of anything bad enough to call him for saying that!!! if it fits in a dogs mouth he will have it
38. All my friend call Gaza a concentration camp
Jerrold Cohen ,   Seal Beach, USA   (01.08.09)
so why get angry at the cardinal? We don't know how else to describe Gaza.
39. I totally agree with the cardinal.
Yaakov Sullivan ,   NYC   (01.08.09)
As a Moslem (formerly irish Catholic ) all I can say is that my tears are not dry for a week. I donated blood for Palestine but UPS refused to deliver it to ANY Palestinian hospital. I refuse to believe there is no way to deliver my donation to Palestine. What a shame.
40. Vatican
Yaakov ben Moshe ,   Phila USA   (01.08.09)
An organization that protects pedophiles and knowingly moved them form city to city so they could keep the the public unware to save face at the cost of more children. The devil showing support for the devil. Business as usual
41.  Not again, once the world could use Jews as perfect victims
e.m.Jordan is Palest ,   s.f   (01.08.09)
If really Vatican cares then where their voice was when the rockets were firing by terrorists to Israeli civilians? Where was Vatican when the Lebanon arm for long time were shelling the Palestinian camps why they were silent when the Lebanon arm killed that much civilian in that camps, is it discrimination which the has no right to defend thyself but the others have a right? Once Vatican and others had perfects victims and because of that they killed Millions of Jews or converted themes neither to Christianity nor to Islam, but today the Jews have their State and will defend for their rights and no can use themes as a perfect victims,
42. It is based on Aloni and Rosan and Haaretz propagandas,
e.m.Jordan is Palest ,   s.f   (01.08.09)
Shame on all of you and shame on that fat Jewish American actress (Rosan),
43. The vatican
Debra ,   UK   (01.08.09)
The burden of their atrocities is too much to bear, they try to shift it but it backfires unto them.
44. To Padre Martino: Too Late To
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (01.08.09)
Apologise or repent.Your fate and the fate of the Vatican is sealed."Those who bless Israel I will bless,those who curse you shall I curse." They should have taught that in your sunday school.Goodbye Sucker.
45. Cardinal Martino: Push Your Luck And
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (01.08.09)
Vatican will one day look like Gaza ,only with more rubble.The question is : Do you feel lucky Punk? well ,do you ?

Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (01.08.09)
Vatican.
47. This Cardinal must be drunk off that Jesus juice
DJ Sac ,   Tel Aviv   (01.08.09)
48. Same ole Catholic Church. PM Shamir was SO right!
shneerhere ,   Chicago   (01.08.09)
'They take it (anti Semitism) in with their mother's milk.' The Same Catholic Church that brought you the Arrow Cross, the Iron Cross, countless other violent anti-Jewish groups that killed by the thousands.... living up to it's same old reputation. Only dreamers and fools, that is, our 'new' leaders, think the Church has changed. Read 'Forged in Fury' by Michael Elkins for a true picture of the Catholic Church and the Jews.
49. Silly Old Bugger - A successful captive of Hamas propaganda
Australian Guy   (01.08.09)
50. Catholic Cardinals are well versed in concentration camps
YSL ,   Jerusalem   (01.08.09)
The Catholic church has caused more bloodshed on this planet than all the despots put to gather,it is full of pedophiles,child abusers,in WW2 they were a stinking Nazi cheer squad.Now we get this idiot letting loose,the least he could have done,was to go to a toilet and let loose.
51. The next time that Arabs murder a priest what will he say?
Murray of montreal   (01.08.09)

GET REAL ,   USA   (01.08.09)

Hannah ,   NZ   (01.08.09)
This is why real xtians differentiate themselves from Catholics- interesting comparison from the Cardinal given how Catholics cosied up to Nazis during WW2 and certainly were aware of what was happening to Jews. Catholics are the cause millions of Muslim and Jewish deaths, torture and force conversions. The Pope's opinion is worth less than nothing and he should be told to shove it up his you know what. PS I used to be one but converted to the right camp ( yours) so I should know!
54. yaakov sullivan changes religions depending on site
Arie ,   BaGolan   (01.08.09)
At one point he was a "Messianic Jew"; followed by a born-again Christian; followed by irish catholic, and now allegedly muslim. No matter what his religion, every one of them considers his gay lifestyle an "abomination". That said, does hassan allow you to go outside without your bhurqa?
55. It's happening again...
Jew   (01.08.09)
and thank god there is a state of Israel. I can see how virulent hatred is. Just look at europe and how the moslems grows there like a tumor and infect everything. They are the ones who protest, who whine, who preach HATE!!!! Thank god their turn is up. and payback is a bitch!
56. Not again, once the world could use Jews as perfect victims
e.m.Jordan is Palest ,   s.f   (01.08.09)
If really Vatican cares then where their voice was when the rockets were firing by terrorists to Israeli civilians? Where was Vatican when the Lebanon army for long time were shelling the Palestinian camps why they were silent when the Lebanon army killed that much civilian in that camps, is it discrimination which the Israel has no right to defend hersellf but the others have a right? Once Vatican and others had perfects victims and because of that they killed Millions of Jews or converted themes neither to Christianity nor to Islam, but today the Jews have their State and will defend for their rights and no one can use themes as a perfect victims, Ynet Please some correction,
57. Prominent Catholic Critic of Vatican
AHR ,   US   (01.08.09)
Excellent analysis of Vatican's anti-Israel positions by a prominent Italian Catholic. http://www.onejerusalem.org/2009/01/a-respected-catholic-analyst-q.php
58. Egg Benedict!
Ron ,   San Jose, CA   (01.08.09)
59. Interesting Catholic responses
Arie ,   BaGolan   (01.08.09)
Even in your defence of the vatican, you do so by exhibiting an insipid torrid and venal hatred of Jews reminiscent of the Catholics of the Shoah and the Inquisition. Your comments alone justify our responses!
60. "hate and rejection of dialogue"
Arie ,   BaGolan   (01.08.09)
Sounds like the foundation of the Catholic Church
