Francis had called for the liberation of Israeli hostages in Gaza, the “respect for humanitarian law” and humanitarian corridors to allow aid to reach Gaza.
Cohen “demands” from Francis, who is not his subordinate, a “clear and unequivocal” condemnation of Hamas.
“It is unacceptable that you issue a statement expressing worry primarily for Gazan civilians while Israel is burying 1,300 who were murdered [Israel has murdered 3,000 civilians among them more than 600 children].”
Cohen is a member of the right-wing nationalist Likud party, which, interestingly, is unconditionally supported by the "left" parties in the Western regimes.
