We have an American Pope. Just not him.

Is this full spectrum dominance?

Sky News ominously reports:

“…..there has long been a taboo against an American pope – given the geopolitical power the US already wields”

There’s the problem right there. No one should be “celebrating” . World War One and World War Two should not be celebrated by triumphalist military parades. Instead they should be mourned as the terrible tragedies they were.

All open displays of militarism should be banned from all ceremonies remembering the 18 million human beings slaughtered in WW1 and the 63 million human beings slaughtered in WWII.

On Anzac day all serving military personal should be ordered to stay at home or in their barracks to reflect in silence on the moral burden of war.

He is indeed an accomplished draft dodger.
