Looking for peace in the Middle East

Quote of the Day: Pope Benedict XVI on the Middle East conflict

"Faced, on the one hand, with blind violence that provokes appalling massacres and, on the other, with the threat of a worsening of the crisis which over the last few days has become even more dramatic, what is needed is justice and a serious and credible commitment to peace, which unfortunately, are nowhere to be seen."

-- Pope Benedict XVI, speaking on July 2 in St. Peter's Square about his concern over growing violence between Israelis and Palestinians. He was quoted by the Web site Catholic Online.
