Vatican official calls for removal of Israeli 'security wall'


The president of the Pontifical Council for Inter-Religious Dialogue has called for the removal of the “security wall” that separates Israel from the Palestinian territories.
Speaking at a London conference on the Holy Land, Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran—who once served as the Vatican’s chief foreign-affairs officer—said that “where you have a country divided by a wall, separation begets ignorance, ignorance begets frustration and frustration begets violence.”
Cardinal Tauran told Vatican Radio that he admired the young Israelis and Palestinians who were taking part in the London talks, praising “their courage, balance, and analysis of the situation.”
