1. Why isn't he going to meet ...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.26.14)
... with Jews who have been hurt by "Palestinian" policies? Why doesn't the pope meet with the surviving members of the Fogel family? How about the Palmer family? Can the pope find time to meet with the family of Shalhevet Pass? No, I guess olive trees and a stomachful of "Palestinian" lies are all he's interested in. But we knew that going in, didn't we?
2. To day its Jews tomorrow it will be

Christians .Europe is in deep trouble .The problem with the Europeans they are so busy hating Jews ,that they don't see that there country is becoming Muslim. Just look at the Brits ,they are so busy eating fish and chips ,getting drunk on beer, singing stupid songs at football matches and their country is been taken over by Muslims .Wake up Europe before its to late.

3. Tell Pope that 1400 years ago ME was 100% Christian, Jewish

and Zoroastrian. After the Arab invasion and occupation today Christians are less than 5% of population.
4. It is early morning in the Land of Israel, the Holy Land,...

...and the Pope is probably preparing himself for the second day of visiting this country on his three-day visit to the region. Of particular interest is going to be his visit to Mount Herzl in Jerusalem, to visit the grave site of the man who was told by the Pope, Pius X, in 1904: When you, Jews, go to the Holy Land there will be a whole host of churches and priests there awaiting you to convert you to Christianity, and Jerusalem will never be Jewish again. Happily, the previous Pope's turning of his back to the Jewish people nearly 100 years ago didn't prevent us, Jews, from re-instituting Jewish sovereignty in both Jerusalem and the rest of the country, and we are pleased to welcome, for the second day, Pope Francis to our liberal democratic and sovereign nation-state. Herzl, if he could see events, would be proud of his people, no doubt.

'yes and California belonged to the native Americans, will you be handing that back at some point?' No, cuz the Mexicans took it over one illegal alien at a time. BUILDING ISRAEL FOR JEWS BABY !!
10. # 7 Right he said his visit was 'religious'
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!!   (05.26.14)
too bad he didn't visit Syria. How many "Christians' have the muslims murdered in addition to their own hapless Muslims and Jews? F the pope and, I mean that, religiously. ROME FELL ISRAEL'S BUILDING !!!!
11. At the time when Europe is rapidly descending
Miron ,   USA   (05.26.14)
into the burning hell of 1930th when extreme nationalism and fascism ended taking over for nearly two decades and ravaging Europe to the tee, using Israel as some sort of neutral ground for meeting factions feels as bad as it can or worse. Israel needs a better PM who wouldn't allow such denigration of land of Israel. This Pope doesn't feel like religious figure at all. He looks more like an movie star. I can only pray that he is doing it for good. But I was taught by cruel lessons not to be that naïve long time ago.
