Pope Leo XIV has issued an Easter message to residents of Debel, a predominantly Christian village in southern Lebanon, currently besieged by ongoing Israeli bombardments and military restrictions. The message was delivered through Cardinal Pietro Parolin. Leo XIV expressed “paternal closeness and tenderness” to the people of Debel and extended compassion to all civilians suffering amid the conflict in South Lebanon. The message encouraged residents to find spiritual strength in the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus, despite the “sorrow, anguish, and mourning” brought on by the violence and isolation facing the village. The Pope also urged the community not to lose hope, assuring them that their prayers and suffering are not forgotten. Invoking the protection of Our Lady of Lebanon, he concluded by offering his Apostolic Blessing to the people of Debel and their families. #newsHyygasezja
Vice President JD Vance attends a press conference in Budapest, Hungary, on April 7. (Jonathan Ernst/Reuters) U.S. strikes on Iran’s Kharg Island do not represent a change in American strategy, Vice President JD Vance said on Tuesday, as a U.S. official separately told Reuters the additional strikes on military targets did not impact oil infrastructure. The official, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity, described at least some of the strikes as targeting sites that had been previously struck before and said the attack occurred in the early morning hours of Tuesday. Vance, speaking separately in Budapest, said the strikes were not a change in U.S. strategy, with the Trump administration confident that it can get a response from Iran by 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time in negotiations to end the conflict.

Private family farms have been disappearing for quite some time. It is tragic that this is happening, but it is also horrible that China is buying much of the land.
LOL. If Shiite law banned nuclear and chemical weapons, they certainly would have no biolabs. Remember Obama exported the COVID bioweapon to Wuhan. Another example of evil doers projecting unto others of what they have planned.
A Finnish study has found that psychiatric morbidity increased over time among adolescents who underwent "gender reassignment". Published in Acta Paediatrica and led by Professor Riittakerttu Kaltiala, the research followed more than 2,000 young people referred to gender identity programs, alongside over 16,000 matched controls, with follow-up extending up to 25 years. The study includes hormones and/or organ mutilations. It is a nationwide observational study, not a randomized trial. Among those who received medical interventions: - Psychiatric morbidity rose from 9.8% to 60.7% in individuals undergoing feminising treatments. - It rose from 21.6% to 54.5% in those undergoing masculinising treatments. The study reports that psychiatric morbidity remained substantially elevated over time. Even after accounting for prior psychiatric history, "gender-referred" adolescents showed substantially higher psychiatric morbidity than matched peers. Nearly 48% had already received specialist …अधिक
St. John Vianney ~~~ When we must do something we dislike, let us say to God - 'My God, I offer You this in honor of the moment when You died for me'...
From Castel Gandolfo, Leo XIV issued a call for peace talking to journalists. The continuing escalation is not resolving anything: “It is only provoking more hatred throughout the world.” Leo XIV urged consideration for civilians, saying: “I would like to invite everyone to think of the many innocent children, the elderly.” Commenting on warnings of large-scale destruction, he said: “This is truly not acceptable. Here there are certainly questions of international law, but even more than this a question of morality for the good of people.” Regarding military actions, Leo XIV added that attacks on civilian infrastructure are “a sign of the hatred and division that we are capable of.” #newsUuspftwcym
For sure the American president is speaking like a mad mullah. Death to Iran as opposed to death to America. It's a form of dialogue that is familiar to the counterpart I expect. As to how this will shake out, it's hard to tell. Politics at that level is very convoluted. The weight of it is shuddering to contemplate. Iran is duty bound to follow just war theory too in relation to its own population as a matter of natural law.
Did Trump Just Threaten to Nuke Iran Tonight? /Lt Col Daniel Davis I think someone who called him Nero is much closer. Low on everything. 15 Tomahawk missiles left, so what is he thinking? What will he use to destroy a whole civilization? I would love to see him removed, but it's GOD'S Will that he will be our punishment.

Last week, Elisa Martinez of the New Mexico Alliance for Life discovered that the Catholic Charities of Central New Mexico (CCASFNM) promoted a Planned Parenthood-sponsored event called the “Lavender Prom” as well as the Transgender Day of Visibility. Martinez reported: On Holy Tuesday, the organization promoted “Trans Day of Visibility.” More alarming, the next day on Holy Wednesday, it promoted a Planned Parenthood sponsored program of TeenMpower, a “Lavender Prom” event aimed at youth under 18 to intermingle with adults, described as “teens and allies.” The event encourages participation across a broad age range of young teens with adults offering “free rapid HIV testing” during the event. In fact, the 2024 Lavender Prom featured 4-5 grown adult males and drag performers attending Planned Parenthood’s TeenMpower event. It seems fitting that CCASFNM should promote Planned Parenthood on Spy Wednesday. But given this information, it seemed unlikely that this would be a one-off …
A forensic study has rejected long-standing claims of an organised network of 'stolen babies' in Spain during the second half of the 20th century. Conducted by five forensic geneticists from the National Institute of Toxicology and Forensic Sciences (INTCF), the research was published in March. What did the "narrative" claim? The 'stolen babies' narrative, which gained widespread attention in the 2000s and 2010s, alleged that, during the Franco era and beyond (1950s–1990s), newborn babies were systematically taken from their parents in hospitals. Mothers were told their babies had died, while the children were allegedly given to other, regime-loyal families - sometimes for money. The narrative described a coordinated network involving medical staff, hospital administrators and religious institutions, including Catholic institutions. Advocacy groups and reports have claimed that up to 300,000 babies were stolen. The first religious figure to be formally investigated was Sister María …अधिक
Al Jazeera confirms the Trump administration's near total fuel blockade on Cuba is causing infant mortality to surge. Doctors are literally operating blind in the dark as life saving machines shut off. This is a deliberate crime against humanity.
Thank GOD at least Russia has sent them oil and gas. Over 100,000 tones first ship alone. Trump backed down from blocking Russia, but he backed off. Putin probably gave him a good speech on morals and GOD! Something trump doesn't know nor understand at all.
