Israeli Tank Blows Up A Catholic Church In Gaza [View all]

Here is the bottom line that won't be reported by the MSM. It was done to send a message that there is no place in Gaza that is safe for you.

Chris Hayes showed a video of former Pope Francis face-timing the people in that church that was blown up. Pope Francis used to regularly face-time them, the people there looked forward to his calls, he even called them 2 days before he died, they called him "our pope."

3 people died in the tank attack.
