Pope Francis urges end to violence in Israel
VATICAN CITY: Pope Francis called for end to attacks and violence in Israel on Sunday, saying terrorism and war would not solve any problems, but only bring further suffering and death to innocent people.
"War is a defeat, only a defeat. Let's pray for peace in Israel and Palestine," the pope said in his weekly address to faithful in St. Peter's Square.
On Saturday, a multi-pronged attack by Palestinian gunmen on Israeli towns left at least 250 Israelis dead, with more than 300 Palestinians killed in Israel's retaliatory bombardment.

With all due respect to the Pope but this all seems to be heading towards Armageddon, the war prophesied by Prophet Ezekiel in Ezekiel 38 - 39 and it probably is just a matter of time before bigger players will join and behind the scenes players exposed but Israel will prevail as it always has and the enemies of Israel will be utterly destroyed supernaturally and Israel will plunder it's plunderers! Strength to Israel!Read allPost comment
