Pope Leo makes grim 2-word statement on Donald Trump amid horrifying Iran threat

 

Donald Trump threatened to wipe out “a whole civilization” before the ceasefire between the U.S and Iran was reached Tuesday evening. It made Pope Leo XIV furious, prompting him to issue a grim statement about the U.S. President.

The war in Iran had been ongoing for more than a month before the diplomatic progress on Tuesday night. The U.S. and Iran finally came to their senses, reaching a deal for a two-week ceasefire shortly before Trump’s deadline.

Afterward, both countries proclaimed victory. President Trump shared that he had agreed to a ceasefire, but only as Iran now commits to reopening the Strait of Hormuz. He described Iran’s 10-point proposal as “a workable basis for negotiations.”

Further, the president said a final agreement is expected within the next two weeks. He also branded the ceasefire a “total and complete victory” and noted that the United States would assist in easing the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz.

The day before, President Trump had threatened to end the Iranian civilization in a post on Truth Social. It got the world’s attention, and fears for an escalation, and even nuclear war, rose.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” Donald Trump wrote. “I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?”

Pope Leo breaks the silence on Donald Trump’s latest Iran threat

U.S politicians, both Democrats and Republicans, former MAGA supporters such as Marjorie Taylor Greene and influencer Alex Jones, alongside other world leaders such as Nigel Farage and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, all spoke out against Donald Trump.

In fact, that also included the leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Leo XIV. On Tuesday, before the ceasefire deal was reached, the Pope condemned Donald Trump’s threat to strike Iranian civilian structures. He urges leaders to find a peaceful solution.

“I would simply say, once again, what I said in the ‘Urbi et Orbi’ message on Sunday: asking all people of goodwill to search, always, for peace and not violence; to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and which is not resolving anything,” Pope Leo said as he left his house in Castel Gandolfo, per Politico.

The U.S-born pope continued that the situation in the Middle East is “only provoking more hatred,” urging leaders to “come back to the table” to find a peaceful solution.


“Tell them to work for peace”

Further, Pope Leo reminded Donald Trump that striking civilian infrastructure is against international law.

“Let’s remember especially the innocent children, the elderly, the sick, so many people who have already become or will become victims of this continued warfare,” Pope Leo continued, calling on citizens of all countries to contact their political leaders and “tell them to work for peace and to reject war.”

Donald Trump has not addressed Pope Leo’s comments.

More people are coming out as Aegosexual – here’s what it means

  As discussions around sexuality become more layered, so does the vocabulary used to describe them. One term now drawing attention is aegosexual, an “identity-less” experience that’s defined by “disconnection.” With gender and sexuality now part of everyday conversation, it’s no surprise that a growing number of new labels are finding their way into the mainstream. Aegosexuality, part of the asexual spectrum, describes people who experience arousal or desire without wanting to engage in sexual activity. At its core, the identity centers on a disconnect between experiencing attraction and wanting to personally act on it. ‘Disconnection’ The concept was first introduced in 2012 by Canadian psychologist and sexologist Anthony Bogaert, who originally referred to it as “autochorissexualism.” Bogaert described the experience as an “identity-less sexuality,” that’s “characterized by a disconnection between their sense of self and a sexual object or target.” In practical terms, someone wh...

Common back-pain drug may be linked to higher dementia risk, large study finds

  A pain medication that millions of Americans rely on for chronic back pain may come with a hidden risk: a significantly higher chance of developing dementia or other cognitive problems, according to a major new study. Compared 26,000 adults Researchers from Case Western Reserve University and several partner institutions analyzed medical records from 68 health systems across the U.S., comparing 26,414 adults prescribed gabapentin for persistent low-back pain with a matched group who had similar pain — but didn’t take the drug. Their finding was sobering: Adults who received six or more gabapentin prescriptions were 29% more likely to be diagnosed with dementia and 85% more likely to develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) within 10 years. The risk wasn’t limited to older adults. In fact, it was younger Americans who saw the most dramatic increases. Younger adults saw shocking risk increases For people normally considered decades away from dementia: Ages 35–49 taking gabapentin ha...
