@rvps2001 The historical context, of the mid-20th century, is an ignoble vatican history of accomodation with fascism.
Unlike John Paul 1, this argentinian pontiff has no lived experience of a Europe divided by the Cold War. He seems blithely unconcerned by the naked attempted nuclear blackmail of Europe employed by rampaging psychopath #Putin. HH Pope Francis prays for peace, but this 'courage of the white flag' thesis is dangerously misguided. Resolution is required, not passivity.
