My latest in PJ Media:
What’s the absolute last thing in the world that Pope Woke, aka Francis, would want to do? What would cause him to recoil in the most spine-tingling horror imaginable? That’s right: the prospect of following in the footsteps of his long-gone predecessor, Pope Urban II, and calling for a new Crusade. Yet that’s exactly what the Islamic State (ISIS), which is apparently not aware of just how woke and accommodating to their various demands the pope is, has just accused him of wanting to do.
ChurchMilitant.com reported the improbable news on Tuesday: in an article in its weekly publication Al-Naba, ISIS claimed that Pope Francis’ recent trip to Iraq heralded a new “Crusade” to “remove the shariah of Allah from this land and to establish polytheistic religion in its place,” and that the pope marked the beginning of this “Crusade” by “lifting his profane cross over the ruins of Mosul.” The woke pope, with his fond daydreams about Islam being a religion of peace and tolerance, has once again run into the law of unintended consequences, and caused more trouble than he solved.
Jihad attacks will follow in Iraq, ISIS declared, warning Iraqi churches that the jihadis “will remove their crosses very soon” as they did “the first time, with Allah’s permission.” This came in an editorial entitled “Messages of the Christian Idolator-Tyrant [Taghut al-Nasara al-Baba] on His Visit to Iraq.” As I explained to Church Militant, taghut refers to idols or idolaters, particularly as rulers; nasara is the Qur’an’s word for Christians; and al-baba is the pope. So taghut al-nasara al-baba is the Christian idolater or idolator-tyrant, the pope.
ISIS claimed that Francis went to Iraq bent on “propagating new crusader ideas towards Muslim countries, especially Iraq, which has been the site of a grinding war for the last two decades between the Muslims and the mushrikeen,” that is, the idolators or polytheists. The pope’s interfaith event in Iraq amounted to “unleashing an invitation to a new religion of unbelief and atheism” adhered to by Christians, Jews and “the idolator-tyrants [taghut] of Muslim countries.”
Decrying the pope’s cherished idea that Christianity and Islam can come to a mutual accord and understanding based on their supposed “common father” Abraham, ISIS continued: “The so-called ‘Abrahamic religions’ — whether true or false — are said to belong to Ibrahim, the prophet of Allah, and based on the claim that the city of Ur, which the Christian idolator-tyrant visited and from where he launched his campaign for this new religion is the birthplace of Ibrahim, the prophet of Allah.”
There is more. Read the rest here.
mortimer says
Of course, ISIS may not be as hysterically fanatical as this latest demand suggests. They may be making a horribly ironical joke at Pope Wokester’s expense.
There is an uncanny similarity between Pope Wokester who reduces the complexities of Islam to a simplistic (and wrong) formula and hipster Father Guido Sarducci who reduces all of university knowledge to a five minute tutorial!

I don’t think ISIS does jokes, Mortimer.
Just the fact the Pope is not Muslim makes him a target.
mortimer says
Yes, but they do laugh at us when our leaders are stumbling dotards. They are planning big jihad attacks this year and many small ones. I believe they are slapping and spitting at the pope in public to humiliate Christians. This must give them their jollies, because the pope cannot strike back! The joy of sadism is their sense of humor.
A hadith tells us when Mohammed laughed so much that his molars were seen. They told him about the slaughter of some people who criticized him.
somehistory says
The word “crusade” has often been used in modern times to mean someone is trying to get something changed…and that’s all they talk about.
So, the pope is kind of on a ‘crusade’…attempting to get Christians to embrace those who hold them in complete contempt, want them dead, are slaughtering Christians across the globe on a daily basis; and to accept islam as just another ‘great faith,’ and mozlems are everyone’s “brothers” and need to be welcomed as Jesus Christ is welcomed.
That’s his “crusade.” It’s all he works on and all he talks about.
mortimer says
I think SH misunderstands the pope. He is trying to find a common agreement for interfaith harmony, but the pope really doesn’t understand why Muslims will not accept it, because Pope Francis has refused to inform himself about the TAQIYYA DOCTRINE, the JIHAD DOCTRINE, the DHIMMI DOCTRINE, the HUBAYDIYYAH-TREATY DOCTRINE or the NEAR-ENEMY DOCTRINE.
Because the pope refuses to become informed about traditional Islam, he cannot understand why his strategy is a trap for Christians that Muslims will exploit.
The pope is actually making HABYDIYYAH TREATIES that Muslims will eventually betray as soon as it is convenient.
Betrayal
gravenimage says
Mortimer, ignoring the genocide of Christians is *not* interfaith harmony.
Lion heart says
As a Canadian Christian guy originally from Iraq , I wanna say that I hope the naive pope would wake up from his delusions that Islam is a religion of peace and that ISIS are not the true face of Islam
Chris says
Lion, ISIS do exactly what’s in their unhoky book, the koran.
Vyx says
What is the end goal of this Pope? He has signed onto one part of The Great Reset, and I suspect that those in power have promised him that he will be head of the new church in the New World Order.
So what is his goal? Perhaps it is to make everyone, including Muslims, part of his particular version of “Catholic” which may have nothing to do with being a traditional Catholic. In his view, the slaughter of Christians and Catholics might simply be battle losses that can be absorbed as part of his final goal of the One World Religion. He knows that Catholics– and other Christians– will not move against him, so he is appeasing the Muslims for his greater good. Aka a position as one of the most powerful men in the world in the future.
Also, the title Pope Woke I is hysterically funny.
Wellington says
mortimer: The Pope has no business seeking “common agreement” or “interfaith harmony” with Islam. I expect a Pope to deal with the great mistake which is Islam as Benedict XVI did, whose abdication becomes more and more suspicious as each passing year goes on and he is still alive.
More expansively, I state again that the horrible excuse for a Pope which is Francis is a consequence of the massive error which was Vatican II (1962-1965). Vatican II, utterly unnecessary, actually highly injurious, is to this day continuing to contribute to the decimation of Roman Catholicism which, by the year, is becoming more and more a shadow of its former self.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Benedict XVI resigned the papacy on 28 February 2013 due to purported “advancing age and health” reasons.
EIGHT years ago!!!
mortimer says
Reply to Wellington: the RCC has a number of ranking members of the Curia who are enamored with the Abrahamic faith fallacy which I have tried a number of times to describe here to people here who may not see the importance of theology, but I assure you FALLACIOUS THEOLOGY is the problem. They are promoting DHIMMI THEOLOGY which tells Christians to grovel before Islam, rather than proclaim that the church’s KERYGMA message to the Muslims which is a Dominical commandment for all Christians.
somehistory says
Wellington,
If the pope claims to represent Christ, he should be pointing out the evil in the snakes who have skulked their way into every land and nations in order to further their goal of complete domination of humankind.
Jesus didn’t try to “harmonize” wrongdoing, wrong teaching, etc. with the Truth He preached.
It is very suspicious to see such a one put in a position of such power over people when he has done nothing to help Christians, whether Catholic believers or those of us who do not see him as a “leader” or shepherd.
He has done nothing to earn the respect of non-Catholics; and it seems he has done nothing to earn the respect of those who actually expect him to “lead them to a better understanding of God’s Word.”
Infidel says
Maybe the Vatican can tell ISIS that their crusade is a new inner struggle, modeled after the peaceful example of jihad? Surely ISIS wouldn’t admit to a kafir entity like the Vatican that jihad is actually an armed struggle, would he?
somehistory says
The vatican can make that argument, but isis won’t listen. mozlums hear only what they wish to hear, see only what they wish to see, believe what they wish, do as they please, and part of that is to accuse others of doing what they themselves do…such as, lie.
isis mozlums are more likely to admit to the violent, murderous, evil commands of their filthy book than are those who belong to cair…or even the pope. He keeps making the claim that they only want what Christians want…
but he isn’t making his mozlum friends happy.
Orendel says
That would be instead “jihad”, the pope is an accomplice to it.
CogitoErgoSum says
There would have been no Crusades if Jihad had not come first.
gravenimage says
Spot on. CogitoErgoSum.
Wellington says
Seconded.
Rob says
..and thirded. The high point of islam’s incursions into Western Europe was the Battle of Tours/Poitiers. The FIRST crusade didn’t come until 300 years later. And it wasn’t specifically about Islam, but rather Christian access to pilgrimage sites. If the mood was against Islam then the Crusaders would have invaded Spain which they could have reached in a hundredth of the time it took them to get to the Holy Land.
Viktor Smith (Ex-Christi@n) says
Yes, its a historical truth
mortimer says
The theological fallacy called the ‘Abrahamic faiths theory’ is actually dhimmi theology designed to help Christians to grovel at the feet of their Muslim masters and beg them for some respect in Muslim countries. It hasn’t worked much and still isn’t working, because traditional Islam considers Christians as ‘idolaters’, ‘musrikeen’ (wrong-worshippers) and KAFIRS … the worst insult that a Muslim can mention.
The pope doesn’t know that grovelling is what Muslims already expect from DHIMMIS, and that Muslims DON’T consider grovelling humility as a ‘Christian’ virtue, but simply as the subservience required by Islam of its conquered, subjugated peoples.
The grovelling of the pope is called in the Koran ‘willing submission’. It means the pope will be afraid of the might of Islam and show it.
Koran 9.29 “Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day, nor comply with what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden, nor embrace the religion of truth from among those who were given the Scripture, until they pay the tax, WILLINGLY submitting, FULLY HUMBLED.”

Soon, the UK and the U.S. will be in a reversible situation if fool’s don’t wake up! For what they/we will be experiencing, read the Dhimmie by Bat Ye’or. .. Beyond horrible!

ISIS Branches Out Into Comedy, Accuses Pope Woke I of Trying to Start New Crusade
………………
More proof that no amount of appeasement is *ever* enough.
Wellington says
Just reflect for a moment on current Western leaders—Pope Francis, Angela Merkel, Joe Biden, Justin Trudeau, Boris Johnson, the collective element of the EU, et al.
It’s the 5th century AD all over again except worse. Arguably far worse considering all the consequences involved. And as well when Hitler was master of continental Europe in the Spring of 1940. Yeah, arguably again even worse than this.
The West’s single darkest moment is our age? I think so. And no wonder Trump needed to be destroyed. He’s the Aetius of our time I fear, though I hope otherwise.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
Yes, Flavius Aetius – the last true Roman of the West…
somehistory says
I’m not Catholic, but if I was raised that way, or had converted to that church, I would consider that the pope is not doing his “job.” His “position” that he occupies seems to be for the purpose of promoting Christian teachings, encouraging people to put faith in Christ and obey His commandments, working for the “building up of the Body of Christ.”
If I was a Catholic, I would be more than a little upset that the pope is not only ***not*** promoting Christianity and the commandments of Christ, but he is promoting islam.
Since I’m not Catholic, the pope has no effect on me or my faith in Jehovah God and His Son, Jesus Christ.
But, I can recognize a fool, a liar and a thief…yes, the pope is a thief as he is stealing from those who are Catholic and who look to him for guidance…in serving Christ and His Kingdom interests.
The pope is a fool, a liar, a false shepherd, and a thief. Very similar to the mozlems he has chosen to defend and promote.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
To your point, a good article from lifesitenews:
“Pope Francis’s advocacy for Islam could destroy Europe”
https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/pope-franciss-advocacy-for-islam-could-destroy-europe
somehistory says
thank you for the link, J.L.
It seems to be saying the same thing as my comments…this one to which you replied and the one I made at the top of the page.
The pope claims to be sitting in the place of the Apostle Peter, and to Peter, Jesus Christ said, “Simon, do you love me?” to which Peter replied in the affirmative, and Jesus then said, “When once you have returned, feed my little sheep/lambs.”
This pope is “feeding the lambs” to the mozlums who are slaughtering them by the millions.
He demands that Christians give help, hospitality, trust, etc. to those who wish to kill them and will when they have the opportunity…as they did with the two young women camping in morocco.
The pope is more an envoy for islam/mozlums than he is for Christianity/Christ. In fact, he is doing nothing to help spread the Good News…which he claims to know…and instead, is helping to spread evil, rape and murder by his advocating for islam. He may as well be kissing the carpet five times a day after he’s finished with kissing the creep in the photo above.
john smith says
Thanks for this James.
Hamish MacDonald says
You don’t talk to the devil.
The devil only LIES.
TAQIYYA FOR DUMMIES is a book for Muslims who are on a learning curve,
the learning curve to LIE.
Christians are dying all over the place, some horrible deaths, including beheading,
for no reason at all.
St Thomas Aquinas puts it this way:
“He (Mohammad) seduced the people by promises of carnal pleasure to which the concupiscence of the flesh urges us. His teaching also contained precepts that were in conformity with his promises, and he gave free rein to carnal pleasure. In all this, as is not unexpected; he was obeyed by carnal men. As for proofs of the truth of his doctrine, he brought forward only such as could be grasped by the natural ability of anyone with a very modest wisdom. Indeed, the truths that he taught he mingled with many fables and with doctrines of the greatest falsity.
He did not bring forth any signs produced in a supernatural way, which alone fittingly gives witness to divine inspiration; for a visible action that can be only divine reveals an invisibly inspired teacher of truth. On the Contrary, Mohammad said that he was sent in the power of his arms – which are signs not lacking even to robbers and tyrants. What is more, no wise men, men trained in things divine and human, believed in him from the beginning (1). Those who believed in him were brutal men and desert wanderers, utterly ignorant of all divine teaching, through whose numbers Mohammad forced others to become his follower’s by the violence of his arms. Nor do divine pronouncements on part of preceding prophets offer him any witness. On the contrary, he perverts almost all the testimony of the Old and the New Testaments by making them into a fabrication of his own, as can be seen by anyone who examines his law. It was, therefore, a shrewd decision on his part to forbid his followers to read the Old and New Testaments, lest these books convict him of falsity. It is thus clear that those who place faith in his words believe foolishly.” – Summa Contra Gentiles, Book 1, Chapter 16, Art. 4. Footnote: 1. Sura 21:5, Sura 44:14; Sura 16:103, Sura 37:36
Jerry says
Maybe if the Poop does enough for Islambhe me be considered an honorary Muslim, without having to go through tedious inconvenience of having to physically personally killing any Christian’s and Jews.
Just setting them up to be murdered by Muslims by pretending that Islam is peacefull may suffice.
In that event, the Poop could potentially becoming a guest of honor in the Islamic (fake) Paradize and be allotted his seventy two self repairing and automatically replenishing virgins and, maybe, more attractive to Catholic Clergy, an inexhaustible supply of unblemished young boys as sex slaves.
Jesus won’t be found in that gake Paradize in the Islamic hereafter, for, even though he is considered a prophet in Islam, his role in Islamic theocracy resemble more the role of the Antichrist in Chritianity.

First we take Constantinople and then we take Rome…..

Question is… Are ya ready?.
FYI, no I am not a Christian.
OLD GUY says
The long term plan of ISIS and Islam is world domination by the racist muslims. Islam is their creed and spells out the type of demonic rule that will follow. The Pope see Islam as just a competing religious group to the Catholic Church, his position seems to be the same as the church took with Hitler’s Nazi party, “co-existence”. I don’t think that will work out with Islamic ideology.
