Pope welcomes leader of Muslim group tied to financing of jihad terror to Vatican

23

This Pope seems hell-bent on making sure that Europe commits suicide. He is betraying the Catholic (and non-Catholic) people of Europe, and encouraging the entrance into Europe of people among whom he knows there will be violent jihadis, and he doesn’t care. Europeans dead? It’s the price of diversity!

“Pope Francis Welcomes Leader of Muslim World League to Vatican,” by Thomas D. Williams, Breitbart, September 21, 2017:

Pope Francis met with the secretary general of the Muslim World League (MWL) in the Vatican Wednesday, a group that has been tied to Saudi financing of jihadist terrorism and the 9/11 attacks in 2001.

Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa, who served for several years as Saudi minister of justice in Riyadh and is now secretary general of the MWL, expressed the appreciation of the Muslim world for the pope’s “fair positions” regarding “the false claims that link extremism and violence to Islam,” as well as for his insistence that extremism is not distinctive of Islam but is found among followers of all religions.

The Muslim World League is a Saudi Government-funded Islamic non-governmental organization, founded on May 18, 1962 in Mecca for the propagation of Islamic teachings. Despite the group’s official opposition to violence and terrorism and its pursuit of intercultural dialogue, it has been the subject of several ongoing counterterrorism investigations in the U.S. related to Hamas, al Qaeda and other terrorist groups.

Two months after the 9/11 jihadist attacks on U.S. soil, Newsweek writer Evan Thomas reported that the Muslim World League was one of “two interrelated global charities” directly funded by the Saudi government that were used by Osama bin Laden to finance his operations. The organizations were left off the list of groups sanctioned by the United States “in order to avoid embarrassing the Saudi government,” Thomas wrote.

In 2004, Harper’s Magazine declared that the Muslim World League had been “long known to have funneled money to Al Qaeda” and is financed directly by the Saudi government. “MWL is an evangelical organization that was created to help spread Wahhabism, the Saudi brand of Islamic fundamentalism,” the article stated.

According to the New York Times, an internal, top-secret report from the Treasury Department obtained through the Freedom of Information Act stated that the International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO), “an offshoot of the Muslim World League,” supported terrorist organizations beginning in the early 1990s “through to at least the first half of 2006.”

The MWL has also come under fire for its alleged anti-Semitism and the Anti-Defamation League claims that the MWL has frequently been a platform for anti-Israeli rhetoric. It has also been accused of using its English-language “Journal” to spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

At their first International Islamic Conference on Dialogue in Mecca in 2008, the MWL invited Yusuf al-Qaradawi to speak. During his speech, he said he would “never sit with Jews on one platform and never hold dialogue with those Jews who have committed injustice against us and support Israel.”

On Tuesday, Al-Issa spoke at an international conference in Rome on “Tolerance in Islam” along with Joseph Levi, the former chief rabbi in Florence, and Bishop Miguel Ángel Ayuso Guixot, secretary of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue.

For his audience with the Pope, Al-Issa was accompanied by a delegation of seven people. The Vatican released a series of photographs of the encounter, during which the two men reportedly exchanged views on a number of “issues of common interest” including peace and global harmony, and discussed cooperation on issues of peaceful coexistence and the spread of love….

Pope? Catholicism has no Pope, there is some person of dubious qualification making statements that are contrary to the concept of Christianity, especially Catholicism. Today’s Catholics have to follow their conscience, not the utterances of some bought out submissive muslim toady.
“issues of common interest” including peace and global harmony, and discussed cooperation on issues of peaceful coexistence and the spread of love….” To be specific, how the current administration of the Catholic church will submit to islam, then assimilate itself with it. Time for a schism in the Catholic church, it has been sold out to islam.

“On Tuesday, Al-Issa spoke at an international conference in Rome on “Tolerance in Islam” along with Joseph Levi, the former chief rabbi in Florence, and Bishop Miguel Ángel Ayuso Guixot, secretary of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue”. Shortest speech ever, the muslims demand submission, the non muslims agree.

Isn’t it funny how there are NEVER any conferences in muslum states on inter-religious tolerance? Because oppression and persecution can’t be whitewashed into tolerance no matter how you spin it.

I’m not Catholic, but hey, its time to give this pretender the boot. It is sickening to watch him kiss Islamic buns while Christians are being murdered by these subhumans all over the world.

After St. Peter, there were few honest, righteous popes. One stands out in memory…the great Pope Urban II. He financed the first Crusade. It’s past time to arm, suit up and finance a new Crusade in our time.

The Vatican should grant nationality to everyone, but taking care of their support with the money they have stolen over the centuries with their lies and eagerness for power.

Absolutely correct.
One world religion, government, and monetary system.
Just as predicted in the book of Revelation.
No one can buy or sell except those who accept the “Mark of the Beast”.

This poop reminds me of this entertainer I know. He can’t sing, nobody wants to hear him sing, but he is so desperate for attention, he sings anyway. Then he tells me everybody is jealous of his singing and that is why everybody is stabbing him in he back so he can’t sing.

Let me set the record straight. His sister walks out of the room when he sings, his girlfriend won’t let him sing at her events, drunk Mexicans rather hear music from the Jukebox.

A Pope cannot smile at those who finance terrorism and cannot encourage Muslims to invade Europe when its predecessors have fought against Islamic invasions: it is better to change trade

These are simply not Islamic concerns, to put it mildly. In fact, they are directly contrary to the Islamic imperative of supremacy. Somebody has badly misinformed this pope.
