    These whacky Islamists in their black jumper suits seem to think this is a game they can win. I can only assume those with experience of overwhelming firepower are already dead and therefore can't pass on their experience.

    His security people should take this serious, are we forgetting in our lifetime that there as already been an attempt on a popes life?

    Some deluded scumbag, in the misguided belief of serving Islam, could well try to kill him and what better way of achieving jihad? than assassinating the head of the infidels on earth.

    Let's face it, at this current time in our history, there have never been more of the bastards out there than now.

    Of course, he won't give a fuck about dying as a martyr.

    Sound familiar!!!!!!!

    Religion, responsible for more suffering on this planet than anything else.
