All Palestinian are saddened by the death of Pope Francis. He spoke repeatedly against the ongoing genocide and destructionof our people and was attaked for this by te Zionist movement. He kept touch with the church in Gaza regularly even from his hospital bed. He cared for people regardless of their religion and made peace a key feature of his tenure. He built respectful and good relations between people of all faiths in a time when right wing white fascists are taking control of governments around the world (Orban, Netanyahu, Trump etc).
