Pope in autobiography reveals an apparent bombing plot during his 2021 visit to Iraq
LA TimesMosul and Aqra Archbishop Najib Mikhael Moussa waves as he stands next to Pope Francis at a gathering to pray for the victims of war at Hosh al-Bieaa Church Square in Mosul, Iraq, in March 2021. Italian daily Corriere della Sera on Tuesday ran excerpts of “Hope: The Autobiography,” written with Italian author Carlo Musso, that is being released in more than 80 countries next month. In the Italian excerpts, Francis recalled his historic March 2021 trip to Iraq, the first ever by a pope. The visit went ahead as planned, albeit under tight security, and became one of the most poignant of all of Francis’ foreign trips: Standing in the wreckage of a Mosul church, Francis urged Iraq’s Christians to forgive the injustices against them by Muslim extremists and to rebuild.
