Iranian hardline newspapers said there were signs of an Israeli-US plot behind comments by Pope Benedict XVI that linked Islam to violence and sparked a wave of anger among Muslims all over the world.
The daily Jomhuri Islami said Israel and the United States could have dictated the remarks to distract attention from the resistance of Hizbullah to Israel's offensive on Lebanon. "The reality is that if we do not consider Pope Benedict XVI to be ignorant of Islam, then his remarks against Islam are a dictat that the Zionists and the Americans have written (for him) and have submitted to him."
"The American and the Zionist aim is to undermine the glorious triumph of Islam's children of Lebanese Hezbollah, which annulled the undefeatable legend of the Israeli army and foiled the Satanic and colonialist American plot," it said, according to AFP. Another daily Kayhan said there were signs of Israeli inteference aimed at creating conflict between Islam and Christianity. "There are many signs that show that Pope Benedict XVI's remarks regarding the great prophet of Islam are a link in a connected chain of a Zionist-American project," it said. © 2006 Al Bawaba (www.albawaba.com) |

The claim that the US and Israel are somehow behind the Pope's comments shows a tremendous ignorance of Christianity. It would be like claiming the words of Ali Khamenei were a Sunni-Buddhist plot to insult Hindus. |

Let this foolishness end.
Look at the Old Testament they speak of the Messiah. I ask you in all truth to search them and come to that knowledge of truth. Jesus Christ. He came for you as well as I, it only takes the courage to look into your hearts, call upon Him and He will truly set you free. Do not be fooled by the deception of evil. We are called to be brothers in Him. |
