After the devastation of Paris last month, ISIS is setting it’s eyes on another high-value target.
Long referenced by the jihadist group in it’s videos, the Vatican has officially announced that it is at risk of an attack by the Islamic State. The organization’s hostility to the city is due to the fact that the Pope, the figurehead of the Catholic religion that ISIS seeks to crush, resides there.
The risk is serious enough for Vatican spokesperson Cardinal Pietro Parolin to discuss the threat with the press. He explained that the Holy See could easily increase it’s security, but added that the church would “not let ourselves be paralyzed by fear.”
A terror attack in the heart of Rome would mark the second major act of jihadist violence in Europe since the aforementioned Paris attacks.

One of these days, their misguided words and policies are going to backfire on them.
He is a false symbol!!!! It also tells us the Vatican will fall in the last days with him on the run….
Who will protect you then you idiot????
Oh! the shoes on the other foot and you’re blaming the sword. Maybe you should try PRAYER in stead of judgement pontiff.
Is that a weapon ? Wow..didn’t think the pope believed in the use of guns (weapons)
It makes me think of priests ,who took a vow of celibacy seducing children all over the world.That SIR leds to a WHOLE lot of mistrust.
God stated to place on your armor of God on. Eye for an eye, and two trade for s sword.
Wesley Brian BeShears My wife is catholic and she reads it daily.
Pope the joke…you’re one to talk about trust. It’s a miracle God hasn’t struck for down for claiming to be one thing and being another. You give God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit along with True Christians a BAD name.
Still waiting for the Pope to grow a pair and call for a Christian Crusade against Islam.
Oh wow and is this not the same pope that told us to embrace gun control and to let all “refugees” into our country or we were not good christians??
