Papal Notes - Francis on WW 1

"Pope Francis is marking the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of World War I with an impassioned plea for people to "not repeat the mistakes of the past," urging them to embrace dialogue to overcome conflicts.
Francis cited current warfare between Israelis and Palestinians, as well as in Iraq and in Ukraine. He told pilgrims and tourists in St. Peter's Square Sunday that he was thinking of children — killed, maimed or orphaned by war — who "for toys, have the debris of war."
"I beg you, stop. I ask you with all my heart," Francis said.
He cited World War I-era Pope Benedict XV's denunciation of the Great War as a "useless massacre."
Francis said: "Everything is lost with war, nothing is lost with peace. Never more war." HP

For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
1 Thessalonians 5:3
As for the Little Horn Power--
And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many:
Daniel 8:25
