The tweet in the OP is a tweet from the IDF
The IDF said it was looking into it and would take appropriate action if verified.
It's since been proven to be fake.

It's fake. It's Iranian and Hezbollah propaganda.

I’ve noticed some people are trying to twist this into a “Protestant vs Catholic” debate.
That’s missing the point entirely.
This isn’t about Catholicism versus Protestantism.
This is about a Pope openly bowing in a mosque, showing deep reverence to Islam, while an Islamic crescent symbolically transforms into a sword above him.
This is about a Pope who appears to be honoring and submitting to Islam rather than defending the Christian faith he was chosen to lead.
That’s the real issue here, not some internal Christian squabble. It’s about the head of the Catholic Church publicly elevating Islam in a way that many faithful Christians find deeply concerning and incompatible with historic Christianity.
So yesh, RollTide1987 ... this is also about this Pope protesting with commies. He's got a lonnnnnng history of being anti-American .... at the very least.

Italy was close to going communist. Ive read a good deal about that time.
Yes they were ... very close.
South Pisa, once you crossed the river, was all communist. There were communist banners and pictures of Stalin and Mao all over the place.
Similar areas in Firenza, Milano and Napoli.
Commies controlled the transportation unions and they used to shut down the trains almost weekly.
We were deep into the Cold War and were always on edge.

Because many of them, just the same as Trump himself, are physical cowards who only want others to fight and die in another war for Israel.
You may want to rethink that claim.
I'd be willing to bet that 75%, or more, of Veterans are MAGA ... and we make up a huge piece of the MAGA base.
Matter of fact, I'd be willing to bet that the same percentage of active duty, right now, are MAGA. Far more in the combat arms MOS sphere.
MAGA, pro American Patriots, are 10x more likely to serve the country in the military than are the libtard progressives.
I believe that it's a fairly proveable, falsifiable, fact that 90% or more of the jobless TDS afflicted progressives you see being paid to protest on the streets have never served their country in any capacity whatsoever.
The description you gave applies far far more to the left, and big city RINOs, than it does Trump and his MAGA supporter base.
And you really should be careful about slinging around the word "cowards." You may get away with it here, anonymously hiding behind your username ... but let it slip at the wrong person, in the wrong setting, at the wrong heated moment irl and you'll find yourself bloodied and toothless.
Just sayin'.
Question is, are you brave enough to walk up to a card carrying MAGA male and call him a coward ... or do you only do it on message boards?
You claim to be Conservative, you say? I'm kinda doubtin' it tbh.

They've been defanged. They had their guns taken and they're no longer being resupplied by the Boston and NYC Irish supporters or, especially, the Kennedys.

If tweet fails to load, click here. I was actually stationed in Vicenza, Italy with the 509th Airborne Combat Team, part of SETAF's RDF, when Reagan placed those nukes in Comiso and at the Pluto launch site. We were close to being deployed to provide security alongside the Carbs and the Italian Paracadutisti. We jumped into Livorno (near Pisa) that week, joined with the Italian paratroopers (where they were stationed), to practice and stage incase they needed us. The Italian communists were big back then ... they were constantly at war with the Sicilian Mafia and the Napoli Cammora.
It was very heady times and the fact that there were so many American Communists that had gotten involved, it gave us an excuse to get involved from a diplomatic standpoint.
Ironic that one of them is now our Pope.

I'm a little bit older than you, 50s and 60s era ... college in the mid 70s.
It was $34 a credit hour when I enrolled at the UofSC.
Roughly $500 per semester, full time 15-18 hours per semester. We didn't F around. We worked while attending school. We studied our asses off. We picked up enough hours over to summer semesters to shorten our stay to 3.5 years if we could.
We lived in old houses and/or cheap 3 bedroom apartments ... split the $330 a month rent 3-ways. Slept on cheap beds or floor pallets.
Books were probably the major expense. Books were always the racket.

Elon opening up Twitter and “real free speech “ has exposed all these fake people for what morons they are.
I agree about Elon taking over X having helped to save this country.
I disagree that all of these people are morons.
I believe that there are any number of sociopaths, some of them criminally so, holding office in this country. Pathological narcissists who found themselves in positions of power and influence and let it go to their heads ... thought they were untouchables.
It's an age old problem dating back to pre biblical times. Some human beings are prone to taking advantage of others. They're manipulative, dishonest, unethical, immoral people ... but they're very rarely morons.

Police say there are two other related shooting scenes. One is about a quarter-mile away on Harrison Street between Wallace Avenue and Bernstein Avenue. The third is in Bossier Parish on Brompton Lane near Long Acre Drive.
So the child murdering POS scumbag went on a rampage from one location to another?
That's a deranged level of evil.

Voted for DJT 3 times. Dude has issues filling out a cabinet/ staff over two terms.
Ehhhhh ... first term, yeah. This second term he's done an outstanding job imho.
Sure, all Conservative admins have trouble here and there with the NEOCONs and deep state sewer rats. Even Reagan had his problem children back in the day. And dubya had a ton of back stabbing leakers. But Trump has put together and good second term staff.
As I understand it, Vance was big buddies with Charlie Kirk and Tucker Carlson. Charlie is now gone and he's cut off ties with Carlson. Which I suspect is why this Buckley assclown was told to pack his bags.
