Pope calls for immediate halt to Syria violence

I am sure that now that the Pope has called for the immediate halt to the violence in Syria, the crazy Muslims who have been slaughtering each other for 1400 years will stop fighting promptly. And for his next trick, Pope Francis will juggle four Samurai swords, four bowling balls and four glasses of water while riding a unicycle on a tightrope; without spilling a drop of water! TGO

Pope Francis looks on during his weekly general audience at St Peter's square in Vatican on February 14, 2018

Vatican City (AFP) – Pope Francis on Sunday called for an immediate end to violence in Syria to allow aid deliveries, especially in the rebel enclave of Eastern Ghouta which has been hit by regime bombardment.

“This February has been one of the most violent (periods) in seven years of conflict,” he said during Angelus prayers. “All this is inhuman. One cannot fight evil with another evil.”

“I therefore issue an urgent appeal for an immediate halt to violence to allow access to humanitarian aid — food and medicines — and the evacuation of the wounded and sick.

New air strikes hit Eastern Ghouta on Saturday raising the civilian death toll from seven days of intense bombardment to over 500 including more than 120 children, according to the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor.

The UN Security Council unanimously demanded a 30-day ceasefire in Syria. But the proposal will not apply to “individuals, groups, undertakings and entities associated” with Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State group.
