Recently, Pope Francis
- met with Peruvian priest Gustavo Gutierrez, the self-declared founder of liberation theology.
- Restored to the priesthood Miguel d’Escoto, the Sandinista who expounded liberation theology as a priest and turned Nicaragua into a Cuban-ruled hellhole. D’Escoto also considers Fidel Castro a saint.
- Brokered the “easing” of U.S.-Cuba relations that left the Cuban dissidents out in the dark.
- Welcomed Raul Castro for an hour-long private audience.
- UPDATE: Recognizes the Palestinian state.
To quote the estimable Mark Steyn, “If he were working for the other side, what exactly would he be doing differently?”
