Reader comment on item: The Vatican Confronts Islam

Submitted by Mike (United States), Jul 6, 2006 at 20:32

....who is listening? Main Stream Media? No.... Governments of the world? No.... The United Nations? No..... Big Business? Probably because there is profit in it!!

History repeats itself yet again in human history....just look back to all the above prior to World War II. The new Holocaust is happening in front of our eyes and all the world says is...they are trying to only get religious freedom.

Go figure.....World War III and we all have our eyes closed wide!
