Benedict XVI, Ali Agca: "Far better than almost any Islamic leader in the world"

“Pope Ratzinger was far better than almost any leader in the Islamic world and better than any religious and political leader in the world.” This was reported to Adnkronos by Ali Agca, Pope John Paul II’s assassin, who commented on the death of Joseph Ratzinger from Istanbul, where he lives today. And he explains: “Just look at the genocides of the Islamic world, from the Iranian clergy, the Saudi royal family who dissolved journalist Jamal Khashoggi in acid – he says – from the corrupt leaders of Qatar to the mafia leaders of Dubai and true religion to all the other leaders of the Islamic world they killed. Compared to all other religious and political leaders in the world, Joseph Ratzinger acquits.”

Then Agca mentions some “historical events” by numbering them. Beginning with the disappearance of young Emanuela Orlandi, the 15-year-old Vatican citizen who disappeared on June 22, 1983, when the girl was returning home after music lessons. “Pope Ratzinger had no responsibility for the mystery of Emanuela Orlandi. However, Pope Ratzinger could have freed Emanuela Orlandi if he had decided to do so during his pontificate,” explains Ali Agca, who was pardoned from a life sentence in 2000 by then-head of state Carlo Azeglio Ciampi.

And again, Ali Agca cites other historical events: “Pope Ratzinger probably had to resign for health reasons – the former Gray Wolf continues – so he deliberately chose February 11, 2013, the day of Our Lady of Lourdes, to announce his resignation to send a message to heaven”.

Then the former representative of the “Grey Wolves”, who shot the Pope in St. Peter’s Square on May 13, 1981, “hands over” the “deceased Joseph Ratzinger to the “grace of the eternal, almighty God”. to underline: “On March 26, 2000, in front of a million people in St. Peter’s Square, Pope John Paul II asked God’s forgiveness for the historic errors of the Vatican.

Finally, the assassin of Pope John Paul II adds: “Pope Joseph Ratzinger was the first pope in modern times to be challenged and outraged by a group of Catholics on May 27, 2012, for refusing to say a prayer for Emanuela Orlandi “Pope Ratzinger has a moral obligation to the Orlandi family”.
