Click to show "Pope Benedict XVI" result 2

Hello Friends!
Here is some breaking news from The Punch:

Pope Benedict XVI on Sunday condemned the spate of terrorist attacks in Nigeria and called on the Syrian regime to end the bloodshed in the country and embrace dialogue.

 In an Easter message delivered on the central balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica, he denounced terrorist attacks by the Boko Haram sect in Nigeria that have hit Christians and Muslims alike and prayed for peace in coup-struck Mali.

 After celebrating Mass in St. Peter’s Square, Benedict voiced hope that Easter’s joy would comfort Christian communities suffering because of their faith.

 The pope struggled with hoarseness throughout the Mass before a crowd of more than 100,000 faithful. Only hours earlier he had led a three-hour nighttime Easter vigil inside St. Peter’s Basilica.

Last Words: Indeed, Nigeria is surely gaining the attention of the International Community...In a bad light.
