Officials say Israel does not view document as recognition of Palestine by the Holy See, but add Jerusalem is ‘disappointed’ and awaits clarifications.
Ha’aretz
The Vatican on Wednesday for the first time used the term “the state of Palestine,” as part of a new treaty with the Palestinian Authority centering on the Catholic Church’s activities in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem.
A statement released by the Palestinians and the Vatican said both sides have reached a draft agreement that still needs to be approved in the near future before it is made final.
The meaning of Vatican’s use of the term “state of Palestine” is not entirely clear. In the early stages of formulating the agreement, several drafts stated that the agreement is between the Vatican and the Palestine Liberation Organization. Now, the final draft says the treaty is between the Vatican and the state of Palestine.
Senior officials at the Foreign Ministry said that at this point, Israel does not view the treaty as a recognition of Palestine by the Vatican, and is waiting for further clarifications from the Vatican’s Foreign Ministry. On the other hand, Vatican Spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi told reporters on Wednesday that “it’s a recognition that the state [Palestine] exists.”
Despite its blurred significance, a senior official at the Foreign Ministry criticized the Vatican’s move. “Israel was disappointed to hear about the Holy See’s decision to agree on a final text of an agreement… with the Palestinians, that includes the term ‘the state of Palestine,'” he said. “This move does not advance the peace process and further distances the Palestinian leadership from returning to direct and bilateral negotiations. Israel will examine the agreement and weigh its actions accordingly.”
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will arrive at the Vatican on Saturday for a meeting with Pope Francis. It is unclear whether there is a connection between the treaty’s wording and the visit, or whether the pope will officially announce the Vatican’s recognition of Palestine during Abbas’ visit.

Statements by the Holy Popes that seems to have been well guided:
GREGORY VIII. (1187) Forbade Jews to have power over Christians, in a letter to Alfonso VI of Castile.
GREGORY IX. (1227-1241). Condemned the TALMUD as containing “every kind of vileness and blasphemy against Christian doctrine.”
JULIUS III. Contra Hebreos retinentes libros (1554) ordered the TALMUD burned “everywhere” and established a strict censorship over Jewish genocidal writings – an order that has never been rescinded and which presumably is still binding upon Catholics. Was a powerful condemnation of Jewish usury? It embodies a model legal code to curb Jewish power that was recommended to all communities.
PIUS IV. Condemned Jewish genocidal writings.
PIUS V. Hebraeorum gens (1569) expelled all Jews from the Papal States.
GREGORY XIII. Declared that Jews “continue to plot horrible crimes” against Christians “with daily increasing audacity.”
POPE CLEMENT VIII (1592-1605)
“All people of the world suffer from the usury of the Jews, their monopolies and deceit. They have brought many unfortunate people into a state of poverty, especially the farmers, working class people and the very poor. Then as now Jews have to be reminded intermittently anew that they were enjoying rights in any country since they left Palestine and the Arabian Desert, and subsequently their ethical and moral doctrines as well as their deeds rightly deserve to be exposed to criticism in whatever country they happen to live.”
BENEDICT XV. Warned in 1920 against “the advent of a Universal Republic, which is longed for by all the worst elements of disorder.”
This is resented by some Jews because of their active sponsorship and direction of such projects as the League of Nations and United Nations. – And in effect, all Popes who have issued editions of the Index Expurgatorius, in which Jewish genocidal and anti-Christian writings are condemned, according to the instructions of the Council of Trent.

“This is the real enemy, the invader from the East, the Druze, the ruffian, the oriental parasite; in a word: the Jew. (London Morning Post, December 3, 1925)
This craving for bouquets by Jews is a symptom of racial degeneration. The Jews are worse than my own people. Those Jews who still want to be the chosen race (chosen by the late Lord Balfour) can go to Palestine and stew in their own juice. The rest had better stop being Jews and start being human beings. (Literary Digest, October 12, 1932)
What happened at the Jew fearing Vatican? If the mean it,they better act fast,and strong. The knives will be out,in the media/Hollywood…….watch the Fundamentalists go after them now……..maybe Christ has returned to the Holy See,andx kicked out Yahweh /Satan ! This is a ray of light.
Yes. I like all the comments above. I hope the Pope start doing something for the oppressed, for the disadvantaged, for the poor, for the Palestinian People etc.. The Catholic Church has historically rejected Judaism and the Clergy specially the Old Ministers know exactly the incredible evil of the Judaic cabal. Many years ago, It was a Catholic Minister who lectured us about the diabolical and criminal Jewish cabal who killed Jesus and have controlled humanity for thousands of years.
We all need to read these articles in the Internet before the Jews take it away.
“The Hidden History of the Incredible Evil Khazarian Mafia. Search it in the Internet is part 1 and part 2. Very interesting, we need to give it to as many people as we can.
Isaac you hit the nail right on the head! NEVER FORGET…Israel is the power behind the power and the evil behind the evil!!! It’s been that way for the last 2000 yrs. ALL WARS LEAD TO ISRAEL.
if this is true, the Pope better start to grow eyes in the back of his head. Remember what happened when France showed a little support for the Palestinians. israel perpetuates a false flag attack, aka Charlie hebdo
I think, we ought distinguish the term. “Jew” according to whether it is a “Political Jew” or “Spiritual Jew”. Probably this list might explain the difference between the two:
Take a look – According the BIBLE:
Now these are the generations of the sons of NOAH:
SHAM (SHAMITES) or (SEMITES),
HAM, and
JAPHETH:
And unto them were sons born after the flood. [Genesis 10:1]
“POLITICAL JEW”
Now these are the generations of the sons of NOAH:
SHAM (SHAMITES) or (SEMITES),
HAM, and
JAPHETH:
And unto them were sons born after the flood. [Genesis 10:1]
The sons of JAPHETH:
GOMER,
MAGOG (GOG & MAGOG),
MADIA,
MESHECH, and
TIRAS. [Genesis 10:2]
And the sons of GOMER:
ASHKENAZ,
RIPHATH, and
TOGARMAH. [Genesis 10:3]
THE CONCULUSION:
[Genesis 10:1 – 3]; Tells us CLEARLY:
The ASHKENAZ come from the line of GOMER who comes from JAPHETH, NOT FROM THE LINE OF SHAM.
“SPIRITUAL JEW”
SHAM (SHAMITES) or (SEMITES)
Now these are the generations of TERAH, TERAH begat:
ABRAM,
NAHOR, and
HARAN; and HARAN begat:
LOT. [Genesis 11:27]
And HARAN died before his father TERAH in the Land of his nativity, Ur of Chaldees. [Genesis 11:28]
And ABRAM and NAHOR took them wives:
The name of ABRAM’S wife was SARAI; and
The name of NAHOR’S wife, MILCAH, the daughter of HARAN, the father of MILCAH, and the father of ISCAH. [Genesis 11:28]
Fethi, sorry. This sort of stuff just does not work for me. In today’s world there is little difference between a political jew, a religious Jew, an atheist jew, etc. If they work for Israel, they are Talmudics. If they follow the Talmud OR the Torah, the soul of Judaism, passssss. Lock stock and barrel.
While people waste time trying to pigeonhole them, they continue to rape and pillage. We used to call it “talk and log” during logging protests.Same strategy.
Remember, nothing much has changed since they assassinated that famous first anti Zionist, Jesus, and that is very recent history.
Remember also, the OT is a Talmudic creation and not to be taken at face value. Most of those tales were stolen from other cultures and … adapted to support in the very distant future (the present) the apocalyptic mindset of Judaism. IMHO.
Yes. The OT is a bad history, a recompilation of passages stolen from ancient cultures put together by the masters of deception and made to their way of being. There is nothing good that you can get out of the OT to teach our children, all you see in the OT is aberrations, crime, vengeance, adultery, murder, infamy, deceit, promiscuity, incest etc… and their god Yahweh asked incredible amounts of blood baths in the desert. Moses religions is the doctrine for the conservation of the Jewish race.
