Apostolic Betrayal: Vatican Honors Palestinian Leader While Forsaking Catholic Mission
Vatican News portal (November 5, 2025) reports that Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas visited the tomb of the late antipope Francis at St. Mary Major Basilica, laying flowers and praising Francis for “recognizing Palestine without anyone having to ask.” Abbas will meet antipope Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) to discuss the Gaza conflict, invoking the 2015 Holy See-Palestine agreement. The article frames this as a continuation of Francis’ 2014 interfaith “peace prayer” with Jewish and Orthodox leaders, where an olive tree replaced the Cross as a symbol. This spectacle epitomizes the conciliar sect’s surrender of Catholic identity to secular geopolitics and religious indifferentism.
