𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐨𝐩𝐞 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐬, 𝐚 𝐧𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠

 –Nasir Khan

The death of Pope Francis today in Rome is a sad event for all those who knew of his concern for the weak and poor. He opposed wars and bloodshed of fellow humans. Even yesterday, on Easter Sunday, he pleaded for a ceasefire in Gaza and the end of the humanitarian catastrophe there by those who are waging war on Gaza and destroying its people in the most brutal ways.

Will Israel and its major patrons of war and destruction in the Middle East pay any attention to the dying religious leader’s words?

We, who stand for truth, justice, and respect for international and humanitarian laws, offer our respect to the departed leader and send condolences to the followers of the Catholic Church.
