Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Foreign MinisterAvigdor Liberman were right when they blamed the noxiousanti-Israel incitement rampant in Europe for Saturday’smurderous shooting attack at the Jewish Museum in Brusselsand the assault and battery of two Jewish brothers outsidetheir synagogue in a Paris suburb later that day.
Anti-Israel incitement is ubiquitous in Europe and is appearingin ever-widening circles of the Western world as a whole.
Until this week, the Catholic Church stayed out of thecampaign to dehumanize Jews and malign the Jewish state.
Pope Benedict XVI was perceived as a friend of Israel, despitehis childhood membership in the Hitler Youth. His opposition toIslam’s rejection of reason, eloquently expressed at his speechat the University of Regensburg in 2006, positioned him as areligious champion of reason, individual responsibility and law– Judaism’s primary contributions to humanity.

Islamic violence. But his opposition to Communism made himrespect Israel as freedom’s outpost in the Middle East. JohnPaul’s visit to Israel in 2000 was in some ways an historicgesture of friendship to the Jewish people of Israel.
Both Benedict and John Paul II were outspoken champions ofthe Second Vatican Council and maintained doctrinalallegiance to the Church’s rejection of anti-Judaism, includingthe charge of deicide, and its denunciation of replacementtheology.
Alas, the Golden Age of Catholic-Jewish relations seems tohave come to an end during Francis’s visit to the PromisedLand this week.
In one of his blander pronouncements during the papal visit,Netanyahu mentioned on Monday that Jesus spoke Hebrew.There was nothing incorrect about Netanyahu’s statement.Jesus was after all, an Israeli Jew.
But Francis couldn’t take the truth. So he indelicatelyinterrupted his host, interjecting, “Aramaic.”
Netanyahu was probably flustered. True, at the time, educatedJews spoke and wrote in Aramaic. And Jesus was educated.But the language of the people was Hebrew. And Jesuspreached to the people, in Hebrew.
Netanyahu responded, “He spoke Aramaic, but he knewHebrew.”
Reuters’ write-up of the incident tried to explain away thepope’s rudeness and historical revisionism, asserting,“Modern-day discourse about Jesus is complicated and oftenpolitical.” The report went on to delicately mention,“Palestinians sometimes describe Jesus as a Palestinian.Israelis object to that.”
Israelis “object to that” because it is a lie.
The Palestinians – and their Islamic and Western supporters –de-Judaize Jesus and proclaim him Palestinian in order to libelthe Jews and criminalize the Jewish state. It seems like itwould be the job of the Bishop of Rome to set the recordstraight. But instead, Francis’s discourtesy indicated that at aminimum, he doesn’t think the fact of Jesus’s Judaism shouldbe mentioned in polite company.
Francis’s behavior during his public meeting with Netanyahucould have been brushed off as much ado about nothing if ithadn’t occurred the day after his symbolic embrace of some ofthe worst anti-Jewish calumnies of our times, and his seemingadoption of replacement theology during his homily inBethlehem.
Consider first Francis's behavior at the security barrier.
Reasonable people disagree about the contribution thesecurity fence makes to the security of Israelis. But no one canreasonably doubt that it was built to protect Israelis fromPalestinian terrorist murderers. And Francis ought to knowthis. Francis’s decision to hold a photo-op at the securitybarrier was an act of extreme hostility against Israel and theJewish people.
As the former Cardinal of Buenos Aires, Francis may haveheard of the November 2002 massacre at Kibbutz Metzer.Metzer was founded by Argentine communists in the 1950s.Metzer is located 500 meters from the 1949 armistice lineswhich made it an obvious beneficiary of the security fence. Buttrue to its radical roots, in 2002 members of the kibbutz wageda public campaign against the planned route of the securityfence. They feared that it would, in the words of Metzermember Danny Dovrat, “ignite hostility and create problems”with the kibbutz’s Palestinian neighbors.
Thanks to that concern, on the night of November 10, 2002, agunman from the “moderate” US- and EU-supported Fatah

terror organization faced no physical obstacle when he enteredthe kibbutz. Once there he killed two people on the street andthen entered the home of Revital Ohayon and executedRevital and her two sons, Matan, 5, and Noam, 4 years old.
Fatah praised the attack on its website and pledged to conductmore assaults on “Zionist colonizers,” and promised tocontinue “targeting their children as well.”
Had he actually cared about the cause of peace and non-violence he claims to champion, Francis might have averredfrom stopping at the barrier, recognizing that doing so woulddefile the memory of the Ohayons and of hundreds of otherIsraeli Jewish families who were destroyed by Palestinianbloodlust and anti-Semitic depravity.
Instead, Francis “spontaneously” got out of his popemobile,walked over to a section of the barrier, and reverentiallytouched it and kissed it as if it were the Wailing Wall.
The graffiti on the section of the barrier Francis stopped atreinforced his anti-Semitic position. One of the slogans calledfor the embrace of the BDS campaign.
Although the economic consequences of the campaign ofeconomic warfare against Israel in the West have beennegligible, BDS’s goal is not economic. The goal of themovement is to dehumanize Israelis and set apart for socialostracism anyone who refuses to embrace the anti-Jewishslanders that Jews have no right to self-determination and aremorally inferior to every other religious, ethnic and nationalgroup in the world.
And that is nothing compared to the other slogan on thebarrier. That one equated the Palestinians in Bethlehem to theJews in the Warsaw Ghetto. In other words, it denied theHolocaust.
By standing there, kissing the barrier with its Holocaustdenying slogan, Francis gave Vatican license to Holocaustdenial.
And that was just the beginning.
Pope Francis met with Fatah chief Mahmoud Abbas at hispresidential palace in Bethlehem. When Israel transferredcontrol over Jesus’s birthplace to Abbas’s predecessor YasserArafat in 1996, Arafat seized the Greek Orthodox monasterynext to the Church of the Nativity and turned it into his – andlater Abbas’s – official residence.
Standing next to Abbas on seized church property, the popecalled Abbas “a man of peace.”
Abbas returned the favor by calling for Israel to release allPalestinian terrorists from Israeli prisons. And the pope – whointerrupted Netanyahu when he told an historic truth – saidnothing.
At mass at the Church of the Nativity on Sunday, Pope Francisprayed with Latin Patriarch Fuoad Twal. In his sermon Twalaccused Israelis of being the present-day version of Christkillers by referring to the Palestinians as walking “in thefootsteps of the Divine Child,” and likening the Israelis to KingHerod.
In his words, “We are not yet done with the present-dayHerods, who fear peace more than war... and who areprepared to continue killing.”
Rather than condemn these remarks, Francis echoed them.
“Who are we, as we stand before the Child Jesus? Who arewe, standing as we before today’s children?” the pope asked.
“Are we like Mary and Joseph, who welcomed Jesus andcared for him with the love of a father and mother? Or are welike Herod, who wanted to eliminate him?” During his visit

Monday to Jerusalem, Francis embraced the Palestinian muftiof Jerusalem, Sheikh Muhammed Hussein. Departing from hisscripted remarks which called for the pope to refer to the muftiand his associates as “dear friends,” Francis called them his“dear brothers.”
Hussein has been condemned by the US and the EU for hiscalls for the annihilation of Jews in the name of Islam.
In 2012, Hussein said it was the destiny of Muslims to killJews, who he claims are subhuman beasts and “the enemiesof Allah.” He has also praised suicide bombers and said theirsouls “tell us to follow in their path.”
Francis didn't condemn him.
Francis stridently condemned the anti-Jewish attacks inBrussels and Paris. And during his ceremonial visits to YadVashem, the Wailing Wall and the terror victims memorial hesaid similarly appropriate things. But all of his statements ringhollow and false in light of his actions.
Israelis and Jews around the world need to be aware of whatis happening. Francis is leading the Catholic Church in adistressingly anti-Jewish direction.

Stephen Tannenbaum · TopCommenter · Northview HighSchool, JohannesburgAs always, you insist on promotingyour own point of view withouttaking the time or trouble to refuteanything Ms. Glick has said.Hardly surprising, when youconsider that you are completelyunable to respond to her truths.Reply · Like · · May 28 at 5:19am11
Natasha Gerson · TopCommenter · Beheerder at Huisje"De Kleine Oele"Stephen Tannenbaum Read someYigael Yadin. He refutes Ms Glick'truths'. Every serious scholar inthe world agrees that Jesus, a firstcentury Judean Jew, not an IsraeliJew, would have spoken Aramese.What's Jesus to you anyway? Thepope has studied him most of hislife.

Joseph Ciolino · Top Commenter · Works atA multitude of Educational InstitutionsRampant stupidity. For 100's of years, if yousaid the word, "Palestinian," it was assumedyou meant, "Jew."
Who cares if Jesus was "Israeli" (which hasno meaning) or "Aramaic," or, just a "Jew,"which, of course he was? I mean, does itmatter? Jews and Christians and Muslimsshare a common heritage. Sons of Abraham.Period. Jesus said his message was ". . .forthe Jew FIRST, but also for the Greek(everyone else)."
WTF?
But if Netanyahu the Nazi, wishes to callJesus an, "Israeli," he's going to have tocome up with a map of the Roman MiddleEast that labels Bethlehem as being locatedin "Israel."Reply · Like · · May 28 at 8:16am8

philly gal • 14 hours agoWhat comes to mind after reading this thoughtprovoking article is simple...actions speak louderthan words and the pope's actions were certainlytelling. Kissing the hands of a holocaust survivordoes not make him a good man...but kissing thebarrier wall shows us his bad side. What is it withthese people.?.they cannot rid themselves oftheir ingrained hatred.?...He knows Jesuspreached to the people in hebrew...Jesus was aJew and died a Jew...not a catholic and it neverentered his head that his people would suffer forthousands of years because of what this churchdid.in his name.To call out Netanyahu like thatand to keep silent when visiting with abbas andthe muft makes me ill...He .is just all show andno substance..I would not trust him..I don't carefor him and since he adores abbas andembraces him so fondly let him suffer from himalso.

fromisrael55 • 2 days agoThis visit of Pope Francis is great.
He did put flowers on Herzl grave - the man whoenvisioned Israel the Jewish State.
He paid respect to the monument of Israelivictims of terror.
He went great length toward us Jews.
Great to see Christians supporting Israel.

fromisrael55 • 2 days agoWe can either go the Orthodox way - spit onChristians, make women second class, not go tothe Army, fight the whole world, and losing againlike we did 2000 years ago.
Or we can treat those Christians who support usdecently, not insulting them, not kicking themout, and maybe - maybe with their support wecan win against the sea of Muslims wanting tokill us all.

Poupic • 2 days agoWhat else is new? A Pope is saying things but onthe other hand is fiercely anti Jews andparticularly anti The Jewish state of Israel in it’scapital Yeroushalaiim. He prefers Arabs whomassacre Christians, forcing them to flee all Arablands. He prefers those anti- Christians Arabs tohave Yeroushalaiim because Jews still alive andcontrolling the eternal capital of the Jewishnation is a living denial of “Replacementtheology” of the Catholic church. Can anyoneexplain how this Ma Nishtana Rabbi is the friendof such a Pope? What kind of Rabbi is he? Didhe buy his hasmachta on eBay?

Why are you saying that?
He did put flowers on Herzl grave - theman who envisioned our Jewish State. This is more than many Israelis whooppose the notion of Jewish State, and isperhaps our main request.Many in Europe still are not acceptingthis.
He paid respects at the monument forIsraelis victims of terror.
I think this visit of the Pope was pro-Israelas a Jewish State.

Read the article! The Vatican hasnever been a friend of the Jewishnation. We exist over 3 millenniaand the last 2 Millennia have beenvery painful to Jews thanks to theVatican. Flowers, nice words hereand there are very nice but they donot erase 2000 years Ghettoes,pogroms, the inquisition, “Jewskilled Jesus,” censorship of ourbooks, culminating in the Shoa.This Pope making a special effortto touch “the wall” isn’t erase byputting a Christian prayer in The

The Church cancelled thisaccusation several yearsago. It will take time tocome down to the people,but I hope it will.
The wall? I am hoping therewill be peace, and therewon't be any need for thatwall. Him being against thewall is not a criticism ofIsrael as I see it. It is hisobservation that it is sadsuch a wall exist.
The wall is by far lessimportant than his visit toHerzl grave - because therehe recognize us as theJewish state - and that';smore important than thewall.
