HIGH RISK WARNINGS FOR POPE FRANCIS AFTER PARIS HORROR

France is warning Francis to cancel a trip to Africa.. MORE

France will not provide any soldiers for Pope Francis’s security if he goes ahead with the visit on 29-30 November, sources told Wednesday’s Le Monde newspaper.

The 900-strong Sangaris contingent has a clearly defined mission, they say, and that is to provide security for the airport and help evacuation if necessary.

Officials have told the Vatican that the visit is “high-risk”, French defence officials at the Africa security forum in Dakar told the paper.

and this

Not only do the French fear that the Pope’s visit could revive sectarian tensions, they also believe that the arrival of hundreds of thousands of Christians from neighbouring countries would be too much for the country’s ruined infrastructure.

The Pope hopes to open a “holy door” in Bangui’s Notre Dame Cathedral to show that the Church is standing by an “afflicted and tormented” people.

There have been longstanding warnings to the Pope about the threat from ISIS.. and there is no doubt that any Pope, but especially this one, is the target of terror attacks. However with the recent Paris attacks being increasingly close to the heart of Catholicism, these new fears and warnings should be taken seriously..

The California rock band Eagles of Death Metal was on stage at a packed Paris nightclub Friday when gunmen stormed in, cut down dozens of fans with automatic weapon fire and held hundreds hostage for hours. The band, including singer and guitarist Jesse Hughes, were able to escape the attack at Le Bataclan, one of several that unfolded simultaneously across Paris, family members said. But some members of the crew were unaccounted for.

At this time, we know of no specific or credible threats of an attack on the U.S. homeland of the type that occurred in Paris tonight.
