According to a report by The Free Press, Pentagon official Elbridge Colby reportedly threatened a Vatican representative over remarks made by Pope Leo XIV regarding the war in Iran. Colby allegedly stated: “The United States has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.” The article references historical parallels, including the Avignon papacy, when Pope Boniface VIII was kidnapped by the French monarchy and later died due to the harsh conditions of his captivity. Following the incident, the Vatican expressed concern, and Pope Leo XIV canceled a planned U.S. visit. The White House has denied the report, claiming that the Free Press’s portrayal of the meeting was “highly exaggerated and distorted.” #USPolitics #VaticanNews #Pentagon #PopeLeoXIV #InternationalRelations #Diplomacy #BreakingNews #GlobalAffairs #WhiteHouse #Controversy
