The article highlights Pope Francis's fervent opposition to war and violence, as exemplified by his remarks on global humanitarian crises and calls for peace. He expressed deep concern for the suffering of oppressed populations, including those in Gaza, Ukraine, and other regions. In his Easter address, he lamented the 'deplorable humanitarian situation,' urging immediate ceasefire actions and compassion for victims. Through his advocacy for migrants and protests against the 'globalization of indifference,' Francis dedicated his papacy to uplifting the voiceless and condemning cruelty in all forms.
Francis was a passionate opponent of war...he believed that in our globalised world, people had become used to the suffering of others and could no longer weep over cruelty.
Pope Francis condemned what happened on October 7, but he was clear also that what happened does not justify what has been happening since.
