    Abbas met for 20 minutes Monday with Pope Francis and then the Vatican foreign minister, Monsignor Paul Gallagher.

    The Vatican said the talks focused on efforts to reactivate the peace process “and to reach a two-state solution, hoping for a renewed commitment on the part of the international community to meet the legitimate aspirations of both peoples.”

    A Vatican statement said Jerusalem must remain a holy city for Christians, Muslims and Jews.

    It was the first visit by Abbas since the U.S. transferred its embassy and recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

    We don’t take orders from the blood-soaked Vatican.

    where was the kirche during the holocaust?
    where were they from 1948 till 1967?
    go back into your hole of a cesspool……and if you need company, take along that mamzer sitting across the table….

    I hate to say it, but doesn’t the Vatican have some issues of its own it could be working on before sorting out the situation on the Middle East?

    Dear Pope Francis and Monsignor Paul Gallagher. Why not begin returning the stolen seforim and other Judaica which languish in the Vatican ,as a first step to meet the legitimate aspirations of the church

    There’s no such thing as the palestinian people , arafat created them .There were no movement by these arabs when jordan was in control of jerusalem and the land known as judea and samaria .Since abbas has control of some land of eretz yisrael the christians population there has plummeted .
