BBC<\/a>: Pope Francis warns world ‘is at war’ after Europe attacks<\/p>\n

\nPope Francis has warned that a recent wave of jihadist attacks in Europe is proof that “the world is at war”.
\nHowever, he stressed he did not mean a war of religions, but rather a conflict over “interests, money, resources”.
\nHe was speaking ahead of his visit to Poland to reporters seeking his comments on the murder of a Catholic priest by French jihadists on Tuesday.
\nFather Jacques Hamel was killed at a morning mass in his church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, northern France.
\nThe killing was the latest of a spate of attacks carried out in France and Germany over the past few days and weeks, many of them attributed to Islamist militants.
\n“The word we hear a lot is insecurity, but the real word is war,” the pontiff said.
\n“We must not be afraid to say the truth, the world is at war because it has lost peace.
\n“When I speak of war I speak of wars over interests, money, resources, not religion. All religions want peace, it’s the others who want war,” Pope Francis added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Richard Spencer tweets<\/a>:<\/p>\n

* I\u2019m not sure there is a more contemptible human being than Pope Francis. <\/p>\n

* It’s difficult not to conclude that the Catholic Church is rotten to its core. <\/p>\n

* A priest was murdered in a church by Muslims, and Papa Francis concludes that it was about money and resources. Ridiculous.<\/p>\n

* If only greedy Westerners would have invested in midnight basketball leagues and after-school programs, there\u2019d be no conflict. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
