The Pope: God's heart is pained by wars

Pars Today – The leader of the world's Catholics, once again criticizing warmongering and US military aggression, warned against the increase in violence, war, and injustice.

In recent weeks, Pope Leo XIV has been strongly critical of US President Donald Trump's warmongering against Iran. The Pope's criticisms drew a reaction from Trump, but the leader of the world's Catholics emphasized: "I am not afraid of the Trump administration." According to Pars Today, citing IRNA, Pope Leo XIV, the leader of the world's Catholics, continuing his criticism of US warmongering and military aggression, once again warned about the increase in war, violence, and injustice.

On Tuesday, the Pope wrote on the social media platform X: "God's heart is pained by wars, violence, injustice, and lies. The heart of our Father is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the self-righteous." The leader of the world's Catholics added: "God's heart is with children and the humble, and every day He builds His kingdom of love and peace with them. Wherever there is love and service, God is there."

Meanwhile, a CNN polling expert believes Trump is "jealous" of Pope Leo XIV's rising popularity. Enten said: "You know, perhaps President Trump is jealous of Pope Leo XIV, because this is an explosion. An explosion!" He also pointed to an NBC News poll from last month that showed the Pope had a net positive rating of +34 among Americans, while Trump had a net negative rating of -12.
