The greatest irony is that the only country where Jews, Christians and Muslims actually live in somewhat of a state of peaceful coexistence… is in Israel. And that’s exactly because we’ve shed our own blood to ensure that the Muslims don’t fuck up our country as they every single other country they ever touch. And we get condemned for it.

The Pope cites Lebanon as an example of peaceful “coexistence” between Christians and Muslims. Fun fact: Lebanon was literally created to be a homeland for persecuted Christians in the Middle East. And it was for a few decades. The moment Muslim invaders thought they had the numbers, they started a civil war that lasted 15 years because they didn’t want to live with the same Christians who made them part of the country. Thousands of Christians were massacred, Muslims became the majority, Hezbollah took over, and the country hasn’t known peace ever since. Lebanon is the first and ultimate example that coexistence between Christians and Muslims is quite literally impossible. It’s mind-blowing that anyone would use it as an example of coexistence, let alone the Pope.

I mean if you had to place a bet on "which presently-extant instutition in Western Civilization will still exist in 1,000 years?" -- what do you really choose? The First Baptist Church of Arkansas? The Gubernatorial office of Rhode Island? The Museum of Modern Art? Obviously, the Catholic Church wins the bet, if any.

The Catholic Church has outlasted 46 US presidents, 63 British kings and queens, and 500 Chinese monarchs. It will outlast Donald Trump as well.

@TheLaurenChen The university was never centered on the sciences; it became ugly with the growth of bureaucracy and the university as a profit center.

Janet and I have been lucky to fly business class in our retirement. The food provided by Air Canada is excellent. So what if Mark Carney spent $21,000 on food on a 2 hour private jet flight to Washington? We want him well fed when he’s destroying Orange Man Bad for us. 🇨🇦🇨🇦

The more you know, the less confident you are that what you knew is true and more likely to realize that what you had believed to be true was untrue. Therefore, the more you know, the less you know.

Musk really had it all: He could have been one of the coolest guys on the planet if he had just stayed a goofy tech and space billionaire. Instead, he chose to back fascism and become a threat to democracy

If a Prime Minister in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UK behaved like Trump he would lose the confidence of the House and be out. The US needs to stop its cultish worship of its constitution & founding fathers & create a system that will never allow another wannabe dictator.

@ReubenR80027912 I suspect it was intentional to highlight the unfair burden that America shoulders in order to be a part of this organization.

Truly incredible stuff here. This is such an egregious error for the A section of the NYT (not a typo, genuinely not knowing what NATO stands for) that it should lead every piece on the decline in journalism
Sasha Issenberg@sissenberg

Does the @nytimes know what NATO stands for?

— Qu’appelle-t-on théologie négative ? — Eh bien par exemple, à l’occasion des fêtes de Pâques, le roi d’Angleterre, chef de l’Église anglicane, fait publier par le palais un message selon lequel cette année, à l’occasion des fêtes de Pâques, il ne publiera aucun message.

Today, Christians observe Good Friday, a holy day of sacrifice, redemption, and faith. As we gather with loved ones, let us carry our blessings forward and look to the future with hope.

Please, please...leave NATO It doesn't work at the moment because the strongest military member is helping Russia NATO was formed to confront Russia, remember ? But once Putin got kompromat on Trump. America changed sides So now NATO doesn't work because its strongest military member is working for the enemy Good bye. Please
Department of State@StateDept

SECRETARY RUBIO: Why are we in NATO? You have to ask that question. Why do we send trillions of dollars and have all of these American forces stationed in the region, if in our time of need, we won't be allowed to use those bases?

Just so we're clear, Israel is now the first state to have an ethnicity-based death penalty since Nazi Germany.
