Multiple governments - including the USA, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Lebanon, and Poland, - condemned Israeli police for blocking a private prayer by Cardinal Pizzaballa at the church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem today. In response, Israeli officials say they are working on a plan to allow church leaders to worship at the holy site in the coming days. Cardinal Pizzaballa told TV2000 that there were no clashes: "Everything was done in a very polite manner. I do not want to force the issue. We want to use this situation to try to clarify better in the coming days what to do, in respect for everyone's safety but also in respect for the right to prayer."
Cardinal Pizzaballa: “It is true that the police had said that the orders from the internal command prevented any kind of gathering in places where there is no shelter, but we had not asked for anything public, just a brief and small private ceremony to preserve the idea of the celebration in the Holy Sepulchre. There were no clashes; everything was done in a very polite manner. I do not want to force the issue; we want to use this situation to try to clarify better in the coming days what to do, in respect for everyone's safety but also in respect for the right to prayer."

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 12,1-11. Six days before Passover Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. They gave a dinner for him there, and Martha served, while Lazarus was one of those reclining at table with him. Mary took a liter of costly perfumed oil made from genuine aromatic nard and anointed the feet of Jesus and dried them with her hair; the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil. Then Judas the Iscariot, one (of) his disciples, and the one who would betray him, said, Why was this oil not sold for three hundred days' wages and given to the poor? He said this not because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief and held the money bag and used to steal the contributions. So Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Let her keep this for the day of my burial. You always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me." (The) large crowd of the Jews found out that he was there and came, not only because of …Zêde
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes - Joh 12,1-11. Sechs Tage vor dem Paschafest kam Jesus nach Betanien, wo Lazarus war, den er von den Toten auferweckt hatte. Dort bereiteten sie ihm ein Mahl; Marta bediente und Lazarus war unter denen, die mit Jesus bei Tisch waren. Da nahm Maria ein Pfund echtes, kostbares Nardenöl, salbte Jesus die Füße und trocknete sie mit ihren Haaren. Das Haus wurde vom Duft des Öls erfüllt. Doch einer von seinen Jüngern, Judas Iskariot, der ihn später auslieferte, sagte: Warum hat man dieses Öl nicht für dreihundert Denare verkauft und den Erlös den Armen gegeben? Das sagte er aber nicht, weil er ein Herz für die Armen gehabt hätte, sondern weil er ein Dieb war; er hatte nämlich die Kasse und veruntreute die Einkünfte. Jesus jedoch sagte: Lass sie, damit sie es für den Tag meines Begräbnisses aufbewahrt! Die Armen habt ihr immer bei euch, mich aber habt ihr nicht immer. Eine große Menge der Juden hatte erfahren, dass Jesus dort war, und sie kamen, …Zêde

To be clear, in the case of heresy it is God who judges it because the Catholic Faith is revealed by God. The Pope is in effect judged by God as a heretic when he rejects the faith. Any man can identify the Pope as a heretic freely without any problem in that case. The man is not judging the Pope, the Pope has already been judged by God. The man is simply expressing an existing judgement.
Only GOD alone can definitively judge the Pope an heretic. Canon 1404 (from the Code of Canon Law (1983)) “The First See is judged by no one [on Earth]” (Latin: “Prima Sedes a nemine iudicatur.”)

She speaks up and trump is as usual "SILENT"! When now is the time for his big mouth to protest and use his friendship to prevent what they are doing in Israel against Christians. And people wonder why I love Putin and Russia so much. Ha! Try learning how he protects all faiths in Russia. And attacking or stopping The Catholics in Russia will never ever happen!

Cardinal Pizzaballa on Palm Sunday: “In this afternoon of Palm Sunday we gather without a procession, without palms waving through the streets. This absence is not merely a matter of formalities. It is the war that has interrupted our festive journey, making even the simple joy of following our King difficult.” “Today Jesus weeps once more over Jerusalem. He weeps over this city, which remains a sign of both hope and sorrow, of grace and suffering. He weeps over this Holy Land, still unable to recognize the gift of peace. He weeps for all the victims of a war that seems without end: for divided families, for shattered hopes. But the tears of Jesus are never fruitless. They open our eyes, challenge us, and reveal the truth.”
Jerusalem: Kardinal an Zutritt zu Grabeskirche gehindert Der höchste Vertreter der katholischen Kirche im Heiligen Land, Kardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, ist von der israelischen Polizei am Zugang zur Grabeskirche in der Altstadt von Jerusalem gehindert worden. Der Italiener Pizzaballa habe in der Kirche die traditionelle Messe zum Palmsonntag feiern wollen, sei aber von israelischen Polizisten angehalten und zur Umkehr aufgefordert worden, teilte das Lateinische Patriarchat von Jerusalem heute mit. Reuters/Ammar Awad Mit ihm sei zudem der Kustos im Heiligen Land, Francesco Ielpo, gewesen. Der Franziskaner ist der oberste Wächter der Heiligen Stätten, einschließlich der Grabeskirche.

A “security group” around the Rusholme and Victoria Park area near Manchester Central Mosque has decided to start their own security firm. “Manchester Community Watch” started as a WhatsApp group for reporting “unjust behavior” against minorities. It quickly grew to over 130 verified recruits through a strict ID + selfie verification process to keep out bad actors. The group has now applied for Security Industry Authority licences so they can operate legally as a private security firm.
What is Just War Theory | Phil Lawler. Thomas More College of Liberal Arts on March 8 2019 What is Just War Theory? Is guerrilla warfare intrinsically in opposition to a just war? Would is be possible to impose regulations on war and the weapons used today? Here is a video from Phil Lawler tackling these questions.
On 24 March, a court in Privas, France, delivered its verdict in the case of Father Bernard Domini and the Catholic community Famille Missionnaire de Notre Dame (FMND). The case raises wider questions about religious freedom and new legal standards in France. Following a two-year investigation, the case centred on allegations of "abuse of vulnerability" and 2psychological subjection" brought by five former members of the community. The community has approximately 160 members. The charges did not involve allegations of sexual abuse, physical violence or financial misconduct, but instead focused on the community's internal practices and discipline. In its ruling, the court issued ten decisions, resulting in seven acquittals and three convictions. Father Bernard was convicted on one count and acquitted on four others, while the FMND was convicted on two counts. The punishments handed down were relatively lenient: a six-month suspended sentence for Father Bernard and a €25,000 fine for the …Zêde
@MarioNawfal 4 military drones were stolen from Fort Campbell, Kentucky in late November. The Army is offering $5,000 for information. The FBI warned of a potential Iranian drone attack on the West Coast just yesterday and the internet is doing what the internet does: The theory revolves around the stolen U.S. military drones that could be used to hit American targets and make it look like Iran did it.

Vice President JD Vance: “My advice to young men who are thinking about becoming fathers who are about to have babies is, you're never ready” “It will be shocking. It will be crazy. It will be the most difficult and the most rewarding thing that you’ve ever done.” "I would do it all again; in fact, I have one regret, it's a slight regret. I wish we had started early and had more” Don’t wait until everything is “Perfect” to have kids. Children are what perfects life.
