"The future balance in the Middle East will never be achieved through voluntary evacuations, which are characterized by forced displacement, total destruction, ceaseless deaths, hospital strikes, daily killings of individuals queuing for a crust of bread, and the obstruction of any clear political perspective to provide the Palestinian people with dignity and a home in their own land. Regrettably, the current situation is destined to generate the next generation of haters and risks serving as yet another antechamber to an additional future surge of violence". This is what we read on Vatican News, the Vatican Dicastery of Communication's website. It is the essence of the message that the Pope is preparing to deliver to Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who is scheduled to visit the Vatican on September 4th.
