A rare glimpse of Veronica’s Veil at St. Peter’s Basilica On the Fifth Sunday of Lent, also known as Passion Sunday, a hush falls over St. Peter’s Basilica as the Church of Rome gathers for the ancient Station Church liturgy. Within that solemn silence, something rare and deeply moving unfolds: the public display of Veronica’s Veil. Bound forever to the mystery of the Cross, the veil recalls the tender moment when Veronica stepped from the crowd to wipe the face of Christ on His sorrowful road to Calvary. Tradition says that in that act of compassion, His holy image was left upon the cloth–the vera icon, the “true image.” Guarded for centuries among the Church’s most treasured relics of the Passion, the veil has drawn pilgrims since the Middle Ages, stirring prayer, wonder, and tears. As the liturgy begins, clergy and faithful move in solemn procession through the basilica, their prayers rising with the Litany of the Saints. Then, beneath Bernini’s Baldacchino, the sacred moment …ఇంకా

News World US News 'You’re fired': Iran trolls Trump’s catchphrase after his 48-hour ultimatum to ‘obliterate’ power plants Iranian officials have said any strike on their energy infrastructure would be met with a response. 2 min readMar 23, 2026 12:58 PM IST First published on: Mar 23, 2026 at 12:58 PM IST President Donald Trump speaks with reporters before departing on Marine One from the South Lawn of the White House. (Photo: AP) Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has released a video message telling Donald Trump “you’re fired”, echoing his well-known line from The Apprentice, after he warned Tehran over the Strait of Hormuz. In the video shared on X, an IRGC spokesperson says: “Hey, Trump, you’re fired. You are familiar with this sentence. Thank you for your attention to this matter.” The message follows a post by Trump on Truth Social in which he gave Iran 48 hours to reopen the strait. “If Iran doesn’t fully open, without threat, the Strait of Hormuz… the United …
"The number of attacks on Christians in the West Bank is increasing," Auxiliary Bishop William Shomali of Jerusalem told EwtnNews.com on 20 March. Israeli settlers have prevented Palestinian Christians from accessing their land by making various threats and using physical aggression and causing property damage, including burning cars. "This has mainly happened in the Christian village of Taybeh, and we have reported this to the whole world, even to the American ambassador in Tel Aviv. He came to visit the area and promised to take action, but not much has been done," said Monsignor Shomali. In Birzeit, a Palestinian Christian town located approximately six miles north of Ramallah in the West Bank, Bishop Shomali reported that illegal settlers have been arriving "almost daily to intimidate individuals in their homes or workplaces." Israeli rightwing settlers have also occupied land belonging to a convent of nuns in a village near Bethlehem called Urtas: "The sisters have a hill where they …ఇంకా
A woman interrupted a Confirmation ceremony at St Mary’s Church in Navan, claiming she had a bomb. Priests and teachers calmly escorted her out, preventing panic among the large crowd of children and families. She was arrested at the scene and has since been charged, with a court appearance pending.
The Iranian Embassy in Afghanistan also claimed that Trump had “backed down” after Iran’s “firm warning” that it would retaliate against strikes on its energy infrastructure by attacking power plants across West Asia.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry, however, has said in a statement to Mehr News that there is currently no dialogue between Tehran and Washington, adding that Trump’s remarks are an effort to “reduce energy prices and gain time to implement his military plans.”
Trump and Iran agreed on a ceasefire for five days; however, Israel sabotaged the agreement and began bombing their power infrastructure. With friends like these...

03/23/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. The hypersonic cruise missile fired by Iran in early March represents a revolutionary advance in missile technology and gives the Iranian armed forces a significant advantage in this war, in which Iran is defending itself against aggression by Israel and the United States. Seven high-ranking Israeli officers taken out in a single strike. The missile that struck the fortified command center? No one could stop it. Not Arrow, not THAAD, not Patriot. Ten interceptor missiles were launched—and every single one of them failed. The operational reality demonstrated here by the Iranian Fattah-2 hypersonic glide vehicle not only penetrates the world’s most advanced defense networks. It fundamentally changes everything we thought we knew about modern warfare. Source: description under the video “Iranian Fattah-2: One strike eliminates 7 Israeli officers.” A single missile has overturned a number of previously held beliefs among military experts in …

"Contemporary Western ideology is based this time not only on a simple illusion, but on an illusion and a madness that have become total and totalitarian. Our societies find themselves plunged not into the light of science or simple common sense, but into the most complete and formidable obscurantism there is, that of rationalism, scientism, and modernism. There is no ideology more complete, more stupid, and more dangerous than the one that thinks itself enlightened by science, by reason, and marching towards infinite progress. It is this ideology which ignores the most basic facts, more than any primitive society. And the great tragedy of the contemporary world is that entire populations share it today, following a globalized semantic manipulation with multiple entries. The enterprise of anthropological dismemberment that underlies Modernity is based on the negation, which claims to be legitimized by science and reason, of everything that has allowed man in primitive or traditional …ఇంకా

Around ten years earlier, she was rejected for a position at the same kindergarten due to her lesbian relationship.
Katholische Kita, Gelsenkirchen: Vor zehn Jahren lehnten sie eine Bewerberin ab, da diese mit einer Frau liiert war. Heute ist sie ein „Mann“ und liest den Kindern Bilderbücher über Frauen, die „Männer“ werden, vor. Diesmal ist sie willkommen und wurde sogar Leiterin der Kita
