<b>Pope speaks like a âcowboyâ</b>
Columnist Irfan Siddique wrote in daily Nawa-i-Waqt, that what was the need to quote a Byzantine emporerâs blasphemous remarks by Pope Bennedict? If the word âCrusadeâ came from the mouth of uncivilized President Bush, nobody would have noticed it. An uncultured and crude person can use highly objectionable words like Islamic Fascist. His Holiness Pope Benedict was reading from a speech prepared for this occasion. The recent history of two hundred years is filled with killing and butchering at the hands of Christians. On the contrary Christians in Muslims lands are living in peace and their life and property is safe. Pope Benedict shouldnât have spoken in the style of a Cowboy, like President Bush.
