So just as the Catholic Church is helping to pour tens of thousands of Muslim refugees into US towns and cities, and as the Pope himself welcomed them to Italy in 2013, here, we have news that (surprise!) some “refugees” want to kill the Pope!

Report: Italian Police Foil Al Qaeda Attack on Vatican
Arrests of 18 suspects prevented suicide bombing at the heart of Catholicism, police reveal.
Police raids in Italy may have been targeting 18 Al Qaeda-linked suspects who were planning an attack on the Vatican, a state prosecutor revealed Friday.
Chief Prosecutor Mauro Mura revealed to Reuters that the suspects had been planning a bomb attack at the Catholic spiritual center and that a suicide bomber had arrived in Rome.
Wiretaps revealed suspicions of a “big jihad in Italy,” the police officer in charge of the raids, Mario Carta, added.
All of the suspects are Pakistani or Afghani; the cell was based on the island of Sardinia. Two of the suspects were allegedly bodyguards to Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, before his death in 2011, police say.
The terror cell entered Italy via smuggling or by posing as refugees; some were then sent to other cities in northern Europe to carry out attacks.
