ICC Urged to Probe Vatican for Sexual Abuse, Cover-Up
Two U.S. groups are asking the International Criminal Court to investigate Pope Benedict XVI and three top Vatican officials for crimes against humanity over the alleged cover-up of rampant sexual abuse of children by members of the clergy. In a new complaint, the Center for Constitutional Rights and the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests say the Vatican has “enjoyed absolute impunity” for failing to prevent and punish rape and sexual assault. The ICC filing is being described as the most comprehensive international effort to date to hold the Vatican accountable for sexual abuse.

hi, Pope Benedict has now two dates: on in the German Bundestag, Berlin, and one outside in Berlin,
on a great open place.
He told the medias that he would hear voices of victims there.
Another group is coming against him at this date: a huge number of animal-protectors. Why?
Benedetto made recently this statement: animals are things and are to be to our function.
No soul, no spirit at all, only things.
Bye for now!
