Summary

As the holiest week for Catholics and Christians around the world begins today on this Palm Sunday, the first American Pope had some powerful words for U.S. and Israeli leaders: “Cease Fire!” Pope Leo told his faithful that it’s absurd to claim that problems and disagreements can be resolved through war, while Hegseth prayed for “overwhelming violence” to our enemies.  Meantime, significant preparations have been made to escalate the conflict with Iran,  the U.S sending 2500 more troops to the region before President Trump makes his decision whether to begin a ground invasion.”

point in the world? Irrelevant. He's irrelevant to stopping war because you have three sides

involved in this war. Israelis, Iranians, Americans, and all three think they got God on their side.

1:13.5

This isn't... Why were they listening to Him?

1:15.6

They already have been spoken to by God on this mission.

1:19.3

So, no, his words were powerful, but they fly in the face of what we've been hearing for the past, I guess, month almost of this war from all sides.

You've got a Christian, you've got Jewish, and you've got Muslim faiths. I mean, you've

of religions who have fought historically for thousands and thousands of years for land, for power,
