While the main focus of The Zelman Partisans is the right to keep and bear arms from a Jewish perspective, sometimes we just have to look a little further. Catholic Pope Francis is dancing in the blood of Brussels.
Pope Washes Feet of Refugees, Blames Brussels on Arms Industry
“Three days ago, there was a gesture of war, of destruction, in a city of Europe by people who don’t want to live in peace,” he said.“Behind that gesture there were arms manufacturers, arms traffickers, who want blood, not peace, who want war, not brotherhood,” he said. (emphasis added-cb)
If I were still a practicing Catholic, I wouldn’t be anymore.
Oddly enough, I had the impression the Brussels attack was carried out by violent Islamic terrorists. Daesh certainly seems to think so. I stand corrected: It was Smith & Wesson, or something like that.
When did S&W, Ruger, Remington, or whoever go into the homemade TATP bomb business? It doesn’t seem like a profitable product, since it’s already easy to make from readily available precursors. And shipping it around the world is problematic, what with it being so unstable as to spontaneously detonate as it ages.
It’s true that there was an initial report of shots fired, and some sort of “Kalashnikov rifle” or two being found at the airport, but that seems to have been dropped from the narrative. For now, the reports of the airport and train station attacks are bombs only.
Homemade bombs.
While some may dispute it, the fact is that Francis is a socialist. And he’s simply using the Brussels horror as an — irrational — excuse to attack those “evil capitalists” selling stuff. Even when they weren’t involved. Francis’ embrace of socialism is more than a little ironic, since socialism tends to be hostile to other faiths.
Francis has abandoned his old Christian faith for one that conservatively killed more than 129 million people in less than a century. And here he is helping that along by deflecting blame for dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries, from the terrorists who did it, to his real enemy: capitalism.
And naturally, as a pacifist-leaning blood-dancer (except when it comes to protecting his butt), he chose weapons manufacturers as his particular bugaboo in this case because socialism needs its victims disarmed.
Sadly, many Jews have also fallen for socialism and victim disarmament.
The Zelman Partisans have not.
Well stated. Thanks for calling socialism what it is, a religion.
I try not to get to involved with different denominations of Christianity and the many various arguments about which one is right and who has the revelation of G-d. However, when it comes to the Catholic church I often have a difficult time holding my tongue. It would seem that they have often been at the forefront of the worst persecutions of other religious groups in history.
I myself have a strong faith, and no one could possibly have a more real and personal understanding of my place in the universe. I have had to leave organized religion because of the fact that there is such a disconnect between what is taught by people and what is actually practiced. I have found that I am not willing to compromise what I believe and who I am just to fit in to some structure.
The strange thing is that compromise doesn’t seem to be a problem for the Pope. He is quick to praise those who are willing to take from those who have and give to those who don’t have. At the same time he is unwilling to allow those who would rather take care of themselves and their own to have the freedom to do so.
The Catholic church has a history of ignoring terrorism, if you look at some of the things that took place during the second world war. It would seem as if history is once again repeating itself.
