Vatican security chief says ISIS threat to pope is real
The Italian government went on high alert last week after threats from the Islamic State called Italy “the nation signed with the blood of the cross.”
The video threat, released with images of 21 Coptic Christians from Egypt who were beheaded this month, warned that Islamic State forces were “south of Rome,” in Libya. At its closest point, Libya is little more than 100 miles from the Italian islands of Sicily and Sardinia.
AND THEN THERE'S THIS:
Vatican City (AFP) - Pope Francis marked the second anniversary of his election on Friday by giving an interview in which he says he expects his time at the Vatican to only last for another two or three years.
"I have a feeling my pontificate will be brief," the 78-year-old told Mexico's Televisa channel.
"Four or five years, I don't know. Two years have already gone by.
"It is a vague feeling I have that the Lord chose me for a short mission. I am always open to that possibility."
